174 new homes
At the same time as the Xia sisters reunited with their mother, Xu Wen, who was asleep, was in a dark space.
After completing the soul shaping method in his own cave, Xu Wen's spiritual power was like a big deflated ball, and the spiritual power was pouring out continuously, which made Xu Wen himself also in a superimposed state of lucidity and trance, and those fragmented memories were constantly flashing back in Xu Wen's memory like a marquee.
But he also saw many images that did not exist in his original memory.
What he saw was the familiar courtyard of the Xia family, full of messy scenes;
He saw the familiar Xia Qing holding his two younger sisters, and her backs were soaked with blood.
He shouted loudly to the scene in the picture with emotion, but in the next second, his consciousness gradually became trance.
Just like this, a similar picture was played repeatedly, and Xu Wen, who was in the dark space, did not have the ability to think for himself, but let his emotions continue to surge, just when he was about to explode, the red rope given to him by Liuli suddenly automatically opened an enchantment, isolating Xu Wen from the space, and also allowing Xu Wen to temporarily regain some consciousness.
And at this time, he also smelled the aroma of glutinous rice balls, and the soft cry of his sweetheart in his ear.
Xu Wen opened his eyes suddenly, and the whole person immediately sat up from the bed, already drenched in sweat, and had been gasping for breath.
"Xu, Xu Wen...... You...... What do you think? I'll wipe it for you. β
Xia Qing put aside the plate containing glutinous rice balls, and was about to wipe Xu Wen's face with a towel, but Xu Wen suddenly pounced on Xia Qing after Xia Qing turned around and hugged Xia Qing tightly.
"How, how...... Suddenly ......"
Xia Qing was strangled tightly by Xu Wen, although it was very uncomfortable, she could feel the strong uneasiness in Xu Wen's heart.
"Did you have a terrible nightmare......
"Hmm."
Xu Wen didn't deny it, "I dreamed that I lost you again." β
"Forehead ......"
Xia Qing first echoed, and then was stunned for a moment, "For, why do you say it again?" β
"I don't know...... Whatever, as long as you're still there. β
Xu Wen only cared about hugging Xia Qing, Xia Qing didn't struggle, just patted Xu Wen's hand gently, "Speaking of which...... Do you remember when Wan Tao first saw you, she said that she knew you? β
"Hmm."
"You helped me bring my mother back today, and she seems to know about you...... I just don't know if I got it from your memory, or if I knew it in the first place? β
"Maybe you're 'her'."
Xu Wen suddenly added.
"But, didn't you say before that there is no such thing as reincarnation for immortal cultivators?"
"I didn't say you were her reincarnation."
Xu Wen said softly, "Maybe you are her?" β
"So, how did I do that......
"I don't know. So, let's hurry up and get to Yuanying together. β
Xu Wen gently rubbed Xia Qing's cheek, "Then I can know everything." β
"Hmm...... I...... I'll try harder. β
Xia Qing slowly moved Xu Wen's hand away, "But I still have to thank you today...... Without your help, we wouldn't have had a chance to see Mom. β
"If you want to thank Liuli," Xu Wen untied the red rope at hand, "Without this red rope that Liuli gave me, I might not be able to come back......"
"Wait, wait...... This red rope ...... No matter how you look at it, it feels familiar......"
Xia Qing took the red rope from Xu Wen's hand and pondered, "The way to tie this knot is exactly the same as the red rope that my mother left us before...... Why does Liuli also have this thing? β
"If Liuli is a late peach and Lingshuang is fog and rain, can everything be explained very well?"
"It's not a reincarnation, it's not a descendant, it's just a simple ...... Buddha-figures? β
Xia Qing had actually had similar ideas many times about such speculations, but because Xu Wen said that it was impossible to realize, she never continued to think about it. And at this time, Wan Tao jumped and walked to the stairs, and at this moment her transformation spell had ended, "Sister Qing, did you see your mother just now?" She seems to be gone again......"
"Late, late peach! I'm going to talk to you about it......"
Xia Qing felt that it was very inappropriate to deceive her sister in this matter. Especially on the premise that there is no need for the white lie to continue to exist, Wan Tao's expression has not changed much after knowing it, but when she said that for the first time, she felt that her mother was like a sister, Xia Qing said that she was very shocked.
As for the explanation of her mother's departure, Xia Qing explained that her mother was going to be reincarnated, but she would leave this place to us, and she wanted to ask Wan Tao to protect this place.
Wan Tao nodded and agreed, and then thought about it, and then looked up and asked her mother:
"Then I'll never see my mother again, will I?"
"Hmmm......"
Xia Wantao smiled and nodded, "It's a pity." Knowing that, I read my essay to her......"
"It's okay...... Late peach. β
Xia Qing hugged Wan Tao, "If you want to cry, you can cry." β
"Hey...... CryingγWhat? My sister is so weird...... It's really weird. Late Peach is not a kindergarten child anymore, and I understand some things. For example, the death of my mother, and ...... My sister is a retired magical girl. β
"Retired, retired magical girl?"
"Because Sister Haru isn't surprised at all about the magic cat, is she? And you can turn into someone else's appearance, which is really amazing. β
"Ah...... Thisβ"
"Could it be that Sister Qing hasn't retired yet?"
"Retreat, retreat!" Xia Qing scratched her head, "It's really remarkable that you can find this." β
"Hmph, after all, I'm a magical girl now......"
Xia Wantao crossed her waist and looked very proud.
Xia Qing's gaze at her sister also became gentle.
Wan Tao is not without sadness, she is very clear about this.
Even if it wasn't said by her mother's mouth, Xia Qing's explanation of Wan Tao's name is also about the same script in her mother's memory, since her mother wants her to be happy, she will no longer easily show her sad and sad side in front of others.
So, with the end of the magic cat incident, Xia Qing's family officially began the process of moving into a new house.
Xu Wen's cave was not originally a 24-hour day, after experiencing an attempt to create spells, Xu Wen's control over the cave mansion has reached a higher level, and now the weather and time period of the cave mansion can be controlled by Xu Wen.
In this way, in the cold winter, Xu Wen's family can live in this wooden house villa like a paradise, and many of the original items in the family have been moved to the new home, including Xia Qing, Wuyu and Wan Tao's bedroom, Wan Tao finally has a house of her own, or a very fresh small wooden house, not to mention how happy she is, as soon as she moves in, she is busy decorating her room.
Of course, the items purchased in the new home are all brand new furniture, and the large items in the old home will not be moved, after all, there is still a grandfather who wants to come over, and it is too difficult to explain.
Xu Wen's cave is only a point in the surface world, so the network is fully covered in his cave; Now only Xia Qing's live broadcast room is still live broadcast in the house of her hometown, after all, the wooden house of Xu Wen's family, the open flame is still relatively dangerous, so everyone still has to eat in their hometown.
Moving to a new house is also a new beginning for Xu Wen and Xia Qing, because it means that they have an independent space of their own - that is, the entire large plane on the 3rd floor, which belongs to Xu Wen and Xia Qing.
At present, there is not much furniture in the house, and the most valuable of them is this 1W8 double bed, which Xia Qing has spent a long time carefully selecting, and today they also started their first formal sleep trial.
"Whew...... It's too soft and ......."
Xia Qing threw herself on the bed and lay down, and immediately fell into a blissful stupor. She felt a little abnormal, and as soon as she lifted the quilt, she found that Xu Wen was already lying in the bed.
"Why did you sleep without taking a shower...... Hurry up and take a shower. β
"It's too comfortable, I can't wash it......"
Xu Wen turned over lazily, "An immortal cultivator like me won't sweat, so let's just sleep directly." β
"No! You have to get up and take a shower anyway! You've spent so much time trying to get the drainage system here, and now you can't try it yourself, is it worth the hard work you have worked so hard for? β
"Wash ...... Just wash it. β
Xu Wen got up under Xia Qing's urging, "When I deliver food after a while, and save up a sum of money, I must buy a super large and oversized bathtub, so that we can soak in the two of us together......"
"Bath, bathtub! I always think it's a bit of a hassle to clean up......"
"You're a late-stage person, what's the trouble? Anyway, it's all a matter of telekinesis. β
"Uh...... That's ......."
Xu Wen returned to the bedroom after taking a shower and blowing his hair with spiritual power, and saw Xia Qing sitting on the bed waiting for him.
"Aren't you in a hurry to sleep?"
"You can ...... before you go to bed"
Xia Qing said softly, "You can practice again, right?" β
"Uh...... It can be, but I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it. β
"IβI'm not unbearable!" Xia Qing said angrily, "Haven't you heard a saying in the Nether, there is no cultivated land, only, only-"
"Only what......"
"Don't you really know this meme?" Xia Qing's face flushed.
Xu Wen shook his head, "I definitely don't know what you mortals are, and besides, after getting along for such a long time, compared to our family Qingbao, I think I'm quite pure." β
"What, what do you mean by comparing to me!" Xia Qing said angrily, "It's obvious that you took the initiative-"
"That being said, you didn't teach me all this knowledge by hand......
Xu Wen showed a very happy expression, "After all, I was a 5,000-year-"
"Alright, alright! I'm not pure! β
Xia Qing snorted and patted the bed, "Then, you should hurry up!" So unconsciously? β
"Come on, come on!"
Xu Wen lifted the bed to tease Xia Qing, and the two made a fuss for a while, but they were not in a hurry to start double cultivation, but they just hugged each other and talked first.
"Xu Wen, you say...... How long do I have to get to Yuanying? β
"It should be soon. Things within this week. β
"Hmmm......"
Xia Qing leaned on Xu Wen's arm, "Say...... In fact, with your current cultivation, you can already return to the Qianyuan Realm, right? β
"That's right...... Xu Wen wondered, "But, didn't you say you wanted to go together?" I promised you that if you are together, you will not sneak away. β
"That'...... Do you know why I have to go with you? β
Xu Wen shook his head, "Why?" β
"I was actually a little scared at first, I was worried that if you left like this, would it be possible that you would never come back......"
"I thought so at first...... Is that not to worry about now? β
"How can I say it......"
Xia Qing smiled hesitantly, "I still hope to go together, but you've been a lot more clingy lately than before, and now you just fly back to accompany me as soon as you finish delivering the takeout...... You probably won't leave me here alone. β
"That's right, after all, the nightmare I had before was quite scary." Xu Wen smiled.
"I said I often feel insecure, but you seem to be weaker than I am......"
"Qingbao, what if...... If you say now that you don't want to go to the Qianyuan Realm, I can accept it. β
Xu Wen gently pinched Xia Qing's cheek, Xia Qing looked at Xu Wen with her head held high, "You...... Are you a little scared? β
Xu Wen didn't answer the question directly, but said softly:
"That nightmare was real to me. Maybe that's a memory I deliberately discarded. β
"If from a selfish point of view...... Knowing that you might be tormented by those memories, I would probably give up going to the Qianyuan Realm. β
"That's it...... Do you think you must go? β
Xia Qing nodded, "Although I am only a small moment compared to your lifespan, I think ...... Whether it is a memory, painful or happy, it should be remembered. If you forget it rashly, it will be too unfair to those who have passed away......"
"That's what I said......"
Xu Wen gently rubbed Xia Qing's head, "But." Immortal cultivators' pain in memory may last longer than you think, and such a demon will become the fatal key to hindering the continued search for the path of immortality, otherwise there would be no medicine like 'Taishang Forgetfulness Water'. β
"That...... What is it? β
Xia Qing was surprised, "It's the first time I've heard you say." β
"It is a medicine that can forget a specific existence, and the biggest feature is that there is no restriction on cultivation."
"Sounds ...... It's a bit similar to the symptoms of your memory loss. So...... In fact, did you take this to forget Ling Shuang Liuli and her? β
"I had a little doubt...... But the failure of the tribulation will indeed cause a loss of memory, not to mention that Liuli has already told me that she has collected my soul fragments in the Qianyuan Realm, and there will be no fake ...... if you think about it."
"Sounds ...... Like, it's a little complicated. β
Xia Qing wiped her nose, and then leaned over and stuck to Xu Wen's arms.
"Still, I'm glad you told me about it in advance."
"Why do you say that?"
"That way I won't just drink what you feed me."
Xia Qing smiled at Xu Wen, "No matter what happens in the future, you are not allowed to use this kind of thing on me." β
"Definitely won't work."
Xu Wen also laughed, "And even if you use it, I don't think you will forget me, right?" β
"No, shameless!"
