Surrounded by a chaotic world, in front of it was a mist-shrouded stone door, and the light that penetrated through the crack in the door was as thin as a hair at first, then as thick as an ox's tail, and finally formed an open area shrouded in a pillar of light.

The dilapidated temple was located directly in front of the open area, and on top of the stone steps, from left to right, there were seven pillars carved with sculptures of the seven gods, all but one of which was still intact, and the other six had obvious cracks, extending from the base pedestal to the long-defunct roof.

The temple is littered with rubble from the collapse of the ceiling, and there is not a single intact wall on all sides, except for the central altar.

The crisp sound of the copper bell confused Yuna's consciousness, causing her body to involuntarily walk in the direction of the altar, caressing the stone bed on the altar, preparing to lie on it.

Stop! It's not a fate you have to choose.

Yuna clearly heard her own voice coming from behind her, and suddenly turned around, only to see a face exactly like her, except that this person had long black hair and was wearing a black robe, and his temperament was diametrically opposed to her.

This person had appeared many times in her dreams, and each time she had to ask about the other person's true identity, but this time was fundamentally different from the previous ones.

If you are Shen Fangli, please answer, who am I?

In response to her question, the other party shook his head, and the voice came out like an echo of her question.

If you don't like the glow of this world, I can turn it into the color you want.

With that, darkness spread from the woman's feet like ink dripping into clear water, instantly dyeing the entire temple black.

Frightened and powerless in the face of the darkness that struck the altar like a tidal wave, the woman disappeared without a trace, and in her place her clothes were gradually turning black.

Yuna sat up suddenly, with a splitting headache, and suddenly found herself in a black robe, so frightened that she kicked open the quilt and curled up in the corner. She hurriedly touched the dream stone on her chest to suggest that she had calmed down, and when she opened her eyes again, she realized that she was just dazzled, and there was nothing on her body except for her white pajamas.

She breathed a sigh of relief, dressed and washed as usual, took a little more time to pack her luggage, moved to the carriage she had agreed with last night, stood against the rising sun, and took one last look at the inn where she had lived for several days, and headed south of the city, far from the palace of the Gara Kingdom.

She did not return the room of the inn, because Ban Renji, who booked the house, was not bad for money, thanks to the other party's care, she had been familiar with the "Shen Yun" poetry collection written by Ban Renjie in the past few days, and personally composed dozens of songs, which can be described as a great harvest, but after all, this thing is a banned book in the country of Galu, and it may be a disaster to continue to stay on the body, so she hid under the pillow in the room, and the soldiers who were not searched that day found it was luck.

Mu Yunxi's opinion on this matter was very different, he didn't want Yuna to act so recklessly next time, when he learned that the person who booked the room in Jingtong Inn was a criminal wanted by the Garo Kingdom for many years, he hurriedly went on to ask Ling Wenxuan about how he met this person in the first place.

Youna was about to answer, but she didn't want to be preempted by Lan Lingxiang on the side and said, "Why do you tell you?

Mu Yunxi was silent for a moment and then said, "Go to Xiao Na's hometown of Panhu City to find a way to restore her memory." ”

Lan Lingxiang covered her mouth and let out a soft laugh: "Ridiculous! Her hometown is obviously the island in the Principality of Walken, how can a member of the Wei clan have anything to do with the Lobelon Empire?"

"It seems that you don't know Cortana's past, what you said was wrong ten years ago, Panhu City is her second hometown, and it is the key to making her remember everything. ”

"Ridiculous! If it's a painful memory, it's better to let Cortana forget about it completely, you don't have the right to make decisions for her. Lan Lingxiang kicked the seat under him, pouting to avoid Xian Cheng's gaze, "Besides, I don't want to go to the same place as the person I hate, hurry up and let your person stop." ”

Seeing that Xian Cheng didn't react, she immediately took out the heavenly hat from behind her and pointed the muzzle of the gun at the other party.

"Cousin, don't be impulsive, I really don't blame me for this. Xian Cheng hurriedly raised his hands, and looked in the direction of the coachman out of the corner of his eye.

"Miss Lan, you shouldn't treat me as their person, although Brother Mu and I are peers, we have no superior-subordinate relationship, and we don't have to go through his consent for everything, but according to the actual situation. Jiang Feifei's voice was gradually drowned out by the neighing of the horses, and then the carriage stopped in front of a crowded intersection.

The shops on both sides of the street were closed, and people standing on the street and in the windows were talking about the upcoming parade, and the guards, under the command of the chief of the guard, stood on both sides of the street to maintain order on the spot. The oncoming carriage attracted everyone's attention, and the chief of the guard hurriedly ordered several guards to come forward with him to stop it.

"His Majesty the King has decreed that traffic control will be imposed from now until the end of the ceremony, that all horses and vehicles will not be allowed to pass through the parade route, and that the owners of the vehicles shall immediately stop for inspection and ......"

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, don't you see that I honestly stopped the car?" Jiang Jianfei straightened up his clothes, jumped out of the carriage, and when he looked up and saw the face of the chief guard, he was stunned for a while.

"Jiang Liu'er, you should have thought it would be me. ”

The chief guard beckoned the guards to surround the carriage, and opened the door behind the carriage alone, but in front of him was a tense scene: Lan Lingxiang aimed Tianli at Xian Cheng's head, so frightened that the other party didn't even dare to move, and Mu Yunxi and Liu Yuhan, who were sitting directly opposite, held the Yanhe Sword and the Yingbi Sword at the same time, and the sword pointed to Lan Lingxiang's * to prevent her from acting rashly.

"Xiaolan, I haven't seen you for a day, your body is getting better, but your temperament has not changed, can you listen to me, let Xian Gongzi go first, I have something to say to Chief Mu." ”

"You are a little guard, what qualifications do you have to order Miss Ben, and why do you know my nickname?" Lan Lingxiang's hand trembled, and he turned his head to look at the head of the guard, only to see that he had already taken off his helmet, it was Ling Wenxuan, who entered the palace yesterday.

Without waiting for Lan Lingxiang to speak, Mu Yunxi on the side couldn't hold his breath at first, and turned to Ling Wenxuan with a mocking face: "Mr. Priest, you can make it easy for me to find, the humiliation you brought me on Glaze Island is still vivid, but now you are not doing your duty and becoming a guard, it is really ridiculous." ”

"This is all a helpless act forced by the situation, and if I do not agree, I will definitely be punished by His Majesty the King for a serious crime. Ling Wenxuan's eyes were not looking at Mu Yunxi at all, but at Youna, who was sitting next to Liu Yuhan, "In the future, we will have the opportunity to learn, can you lend Xiao Na to me for a while?"

Mu Yunxi said solemnly: "Xiao Na is not your belonging, she has nothing to do with your Tianyao Sect, and soon she will return to her hometown and start a new life." ”

"Why? Don't you even want me to say goodbye to her?"

"You ......"

"Mu Yunxi, you'd better honestly agree to Father Ling's conditions, otherwise my gun may go off at any time. The heavenly hat in Lan Lingxiang's hand was close to Xian Cheng's head.

"Xiaolan...... I haven't ...... you" Xian Cheng saw everyone's eyes turn to him, and hurriedly changed his words, "You...... How can you do this to your cousin?"

"Not ...... What?" Lan Lingxiang's other hand hooked Xian Cheng's neck and said in a low voice, "Your fiancée is obviously Zhao Cuiying, right?"

Under Lan Lingxiang's coercion, Xian Cheng had no choice but to nod his head again and again, while Liu Yuhan, who was holding the hilt of the sword in Mu Yunxi's hand, shook his head slightly.

Mu Yunxi, who had regained his composure, put his sword back into its sheath, and watched helplessly and bitterly as Ling Wenxuan took Youna's hand and walked out of the carriage, what he cared about was that Youna did not hesitate for a moment about Ling Wenxuan's request just now.

When the two came to a quiet street corner, Ling Wenxuan touched his lower lip and stared at Youna without saying a word.

"Father, what's wrong with you?

Ling Wenxuan looked at Youna's blue eyes and said softly, "No, I think you have something to say to me."

"I don't understand what you mean at all, please make it clear. ”

"Do you remember when you were at the Idoris Monastery, Mu Bingyue asked you about the origin of this dream stone on your chest?" Ling Wenxuan said as he asked Youna to take off the necklace.

"Of course I do, but I don't know where it came from. Yu Na stared at the orange spar connected to the necklace in her hand, and handed it to Ling Wenxuan and said, "Listen to Xun'er, in the state of my cultivation has greatly increased, it seems to be another person, and the dream stone at this time is silvery-white. ”

"This dream stone is one of the twelve ancient relics left by the war between gods, humans and demons thousands of years ago, this war led to the destruction of the temple, and the remains turned into twelve relics of the gods scattered in the world. ”

Ling Wenxuan let out a long sigh and continued to tell Youna about his early experience.

"In the year 762 of the Radiant Star Era, I was elected as the last Traveling Father, and by that time I had already found ten ancient relics, all that was left was the Dream Stone that was mysteriously stolen years ago, and the Heavenly Machine Box, which could hold all things. I traveled to many parts of the world with Rosewood and finally found the Heavenly Locker in a remote village, but after years of searching for the Dream Stone without success, until I met you, I was convinced that there must be some connection between the person who stole the Dream Stone and your amnesia. ”

"The jade you see in front of you is unremarkable and ordinary, but before you get it, it is a rare and ferocious thing in the world. Ling Wenxuan handed the dream stone back to Youna's hand, "Once you get close to the jade stone for a hundred steps, the desires, obsessions, and resentments in people's hearts will be infinitely magnified, and they will eventually sleep in the eternal dream realm and will never wake up." ”

"Wait...... Then why doesn't it have the slightest effect on the people around me? Yuna stretched out her hand to interrupt.

"Because you have been wearing such a vicious thing on your body for a long time, all the effects have converged on you, but you are not aware of it. Ling Wenxuan clasped his hands and changed his posture, "Think about it carefully, have you ever had the experience of having the same dream over and over again before?" ”

Ling Wenxuan's words finally woke up Youna, she did often dream of a person who looked exactly like her before, but she didn't think about it at that time, she nodded, and told Ling Wenxuan the truth about the scene in her dream last night.

She found that Ling Wenxuan frowned as she listened, and her expression became more and more serious, until she finished speaking, Ling Wenxuan couldn't even scream, and finally decided to tell Youna her inference.

"I'm sure that part of your lost memory is sealed in the dream stone, because dreams are the opposite of reality, 'that person' will be your dark side, with all the current indications, she is trying to replace you, so not all the truth must be investigated, I advise you to dispel the idea of recovering your memories as soon as possible, otherwise the thought will become a demon, and everything will be irreparable at that time. ”

"Life in the world, if you don't know your past, it's no different from living in the dark, if my past is still dark, I'd rather become a demon. Yuna covered her mouth, unable to believe that this was blurted out.

Ling Wenxuan closed his eyes tightly, and there was a fierce ideological struggle in his heart, and in the end he still compromised, took out the lighter box that Youna had seen before from his coat pocket and said: "This is not an ordinary lighter, it is the Heavenly Machine Box among the twelve ancient relics, which can hold everything in the world, including the Dream Stone in your hand, many years ago, I also did not seal the Heavenly Machine Box out of selfishness, but I didn't expect it to come in handy today." ”

"What do you want to do?"

Before Yuna could react, Ling Wenxuan recited the incantation lightly, and two auras appeared around the Heavenly Machine Box, and then the necklace with the Dream Stone in her hand flew into the box like wings, completely disappearing.

Ling Wenxuan quickly closed the Heavenly Machine Box, and handed it to Yu Na, and said: "Sealing the Dream Stone is just an expedient measure, only in this way can you eliminate the influence of this ferocious thing on your mind, the unsealed spell is written on the inner layer of the mechanism at the bottom of the box, besides, don't tell anyone about the Heavenly Machine Box, can you do it?"

Seeing that Youna nodded slightly, Ling Wenxuan wrapped Youna's hand in the entirety of the Heavenly Machine Box, and said with a wry smile: "I also hope that you can promise me another thing, that is, never open it." ”

"I have made up my mind, no one in the world has ever had an obsession. Yuna slowly took the Heavenly Machine Box into her arms.

"Then you are so self-conscious, maybe we don't have many opportunities to meet in the future. ”

With that, Ling Wenxuan turned to leave, and the sound of music greeting His Majesty the King was already ringing on the other side of the street, and pedestrians rushed in the same direction.
