The phoenix entered a large, empty stone chamber in a fog.

He had come here by a ghost, and he couldn't remember whether he had flown or walked, he couldn't remember the route, and he couldn't even remember where he was before he came here.

The stone chamber is quiet, except for a flame burning in the innermost part, which stands out in the gloom.

In front of the flames, there is a strange stone statue carved from a whole boulder, with a triangular head, a corner poked in the middle, and a corner on each side, with a hideous face, and the fangs are very conspicuous, a very vicious "ghost head", with a symmetrical eight-legged body, sharp claws on each foot, and two giant wings on the back, strange and terrifying.

In the huge stone room, there was only one person, and his back looked enchanting and charming, sitting silently in front of the flames, as if he was meditating in silence.

The phoenix suddenly felt that he was a lot more sober, only to feel that this place was extremely strange, and the back of the woman in front of him was also full of demagogic aura, which looked a little familiar, but it was just ...... Who is she? I can't remember...... How did I get here? I can't remember......

Why does this picture, this woman, give people a strange feeling of keeping time and stagnating?

Everything here is so quiet and silent.

The flames were blazing, reflecting the back of the woman in front of the flames.

The phoenix slowly stepped forward, stopped a foot behind the man, and asked in a low voice, "Are you?"

The figure sitting in front of the flame moved, and a dreamlike voice came out: "You...... Don't you recognize me?"

Phoenix heard her voice and felt as if she had heard it, but ...... Where have you heard of it?

He continued to ask softly, "Girl...... Do you know where?"

The woman still didn't look back, only listened to her whisper: "Phoenix......"

Phoenix frowned slightly, as if she was a little surprised that this woman, who she knew intuitively but couldn't recall, could recognize who she was without looking back.

After a while, the phoenix said, "Can this girl go back and let me see you next?"

The woman's body in front of the flames moved, and then slowly turned around.

This is a beautiful and incomprehensible woman, full of dreamy fairy spirit, the lilac thin dress reflects her beautiful face, it is really beautiful, but it is too unreal, Phoenix is anxious for some reason, and secretly said in her heart: I know her, I must know her, who is she? Who is she?

Seeing that his expression was different, the woman smiled faintly, and there was a hint of self-pity in this illusory smile.

"After all, I have never entered your heart...... Otherwise, you wouldn't have been unrecognizable in your dreams. ”

Phoenix was silent for a moment, his heart became more and more depressed, this woman was certainly beautiful and extraordinary, but for some reason she didn't feel very comfortable for herself, it was an ethereal sense of oppression, which made him want to escape.

The phoenix's throat moved, and said, "I really can't remember it, and I ask the fairy to forgive me." ”

The woman snorted and said, "I can't remember...... Then you...... Do you remember a man named Yumehime?"

"Yumehime...... Yumehime ......"

The phoenix muttered to herself, such a familiar name, Yumehime......

Meng Ji was stunned for a moment when she heard the name repeated in a low voice from Phoenix's mouth, but she didn't say anything more, only a soft "um".

Then, she slowly stood up, a faint smile with a hint of bitterness, and she slowly walked towards the young man in front of her.

Phoenix's heart trembled, her eyes burned, and a huge, indescribable feeling of helplessness and sadness hit her heart, but she couldn't understand why she felt this way.

Is she her sweetheart? Can't you recognize her because she's in a dream?

No, Phoenix shook her head slightly, she wasn't ......

As the woman in front of him slowly approached, the phoenix's breathing became rapid, huge, strangely depressed, and he felt that he was about to suffocate.

The thin garment on the beautiful woman's body, which had somehow become close to transparent, gently slid down and floated to the ground, and the flames illuminated her carcass even more concave and seductive.

The phoenix raised his sleeves to cover his eyes in shock, and then turned away.

"You...... What for?"

"Why don't you accept me in your dreams?"

"I ...... I...... You're not my ......"

"Isn't it yours? I clearly dreamed that the red mortal world, the snow fog and ice field, you said that you forgot your crush, and you want to find her...... Now you've found ...... She's right in front of you......"

The phoenix is like being struck by lightning, and she wakes up from a big dream, yes, she is a dream queen.

He continued to close his eyes and stood straight with his back to Yumehime.

"At that time...... I forgot everything...... I thought...... But then I remembered...... It's not ......"

Yumehime's soft voice trembled slightly, and she asked, "Why?"

Phoenix took a deep breath and said, "You are the noble Goddess of Mengji, and I am just a Demon Protector who has rebelled from Heaven...... Why should you ......?"

Meng Ji smiled coldly, "Is this really the reason?"

"I know you've done a lot for me...... But something...... Really wrong...... The Emperor of Heaven did not tolerate me, it was me...... You know that I'm a person who is most afraid of indebtedness to others...... Why did you bother to help the West Sea rebel? Why did you leave Midi a chance to save my life? You know that you will only make me more miserable by doing this......

"Why can't you love me?"

Where does Meng Ji care about the West Sea Midi, she has only been entangled in the heart of the phoenix from beginning to end.

"You ...... in your heart Is there such a thing as an emperor...... Or ......"

"Say no more!"

Phoenix's heart fluctuated, and he said excitedly: "It has nothing to do with others...... Goddess...... How do you give me...... It's the goddess...... I must not deceive you, the feeling of the goddess...... No...... Love ......"

Phoenix felt very sad at this time, he felt that he owed a lot to the woman behind him, and an invisible pressure overwhelmed him.

It's not that he didn't think about being with Meng Ji in his early years, but Meng Ji always gave him an inexplicable sense of oppression, and it wasn't because she was too beautiful, her cultivation was too high, and she had a close relationship with the Emperor of Heaven, it was just an inexplicable uncomfortable feeling, and Phoenix, who was extremely upright and open-minded, naturally couldn't always behave ambiguously.

The stone chamber suddenly became dead silent.

"You...... Finally reborn...... Who saved you?" the phoenix's voice suddenly sounded.

"Nobody saved me...... Only people hurt me. Yumehime's voice was psychedelic, and desolate.

"Who?"

Yumehime didn't answer.

"Phoenix, look back at me. ”

"You get dressed first. ”

"You turn back first. ”

"Nope. ”

Meng Ji smiled softly, "Promise me one last thing, after completion, you and I will be clear, and I will never be obsessed with you again." ”

"What?"

Meng Ji sighed softly, "Stay with me here...... Until I ...... Thorough...... Resurrection ......"

"How long?"

"I don't know. ”

The phoenix pondered for a long time, turned her back to Mengji, and nodded slowly.

"I promise you. ”
