Chapter 53: It was already predestined
In Qi Jiaoyao's sight, Qi Xuansu's corpse burned with colorful glass flames, and the corpse became fainter and fainter, and finally disappeared completely.
Only the Heart of the Immortal Stone remains.
Qi Jiaoyao sat paralyzed on the ground, silent.
Qi Xuansu didn't know how long he had been asleep, and finally woke up.
The feeling of weakness and dying was swept away, and he was still the one who created the heavens.
Qi Xuansu sat up suddenly, as if awakened from a nightmare, and looked around.
It's not Yao Zu Palace, it's not even Lingshan Cave Heaven, it's Tongzhen Palace.
What a deal!
He died in a daze, and then triggered the guarantee mechanism of the "Hidden Lantern", and then was pulled back.
The secret behind the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" is still half-understood.
Thinking of the "Returning Lantern", Qi Xuansu suddenly found that he didn't seem to see the "Returning Lantern"?
Qi Xuansu remembered that he clearly put the "Returning Lantern" on the jade platform.
Shouldn't you be confused and drop the "Hidden Lantern" in the Lingshan Cave Heaven? There's no way to explain this to the Heavenly Master.
Qi Xuansu hurriedly got up and looked around for the "Returning Lantern".
Soon, Qi Xuansu found the "Hidden Lantern" that had fallen to the ground on the other side of the jade platform, along with a small Yin.
This ghost girl is sleeping with the "Hidden Lantern" in her arms.
Qi Xuansu only thought about it for a moment, and then he understood what was going on.
It must have been this little girl who sneaked in while he entered the Lingshan Cave.
This bear child, it won't work if you don't teach it a lesson.
Qi Xuansu picked up Xiao Yin with his right hand, and put the "Guizang Lamp" back on the jade platform with his left hand.
Xiao Yin, who was caught in the back collar, was still unconscious.
Qi Xuansu was also not polite, and directly slapped two positives and one against two slaps that were neither light nor heavy.
Xiao Yin seemed to wake up from a nightmare, and shouted with a crying voice, "I don't dare, I don't dare anymore!" Lao Qi! Lao Zhang!"
Qi Xuansu quietly watched Xiao Yin's performance.
After a while, Xiao Yin was a little sober, but still a little confused: "Where am I?"
Qi Xuansu kept a straight face, but still didn't speak.
Xiao Yin finally came to his senses, looked at Qi Xuansu's expression, and then looked at the "Returning Lamp" placed on the jade platform next to him with the corner of his eye, and the memories before fainting immediately came flooding back.
Xiao Yinton felt weak.
"Didn't I leave you to stay out there? How did you get in?" Qi Xuansu finally spoke.
Xiao Yin looked left and right and said the others: "That...... I just had a nightmare that two bad guys ran into the house, and neither grandpa nor aunt was a match......
Qi Xuansu interrupted, "Don't ramble, answer questions."
"Am I not worried about you?" Xiao Yin lowered his head, and didn't forget to peek at Qi Xuansu with his eyes, "By the way, Old Qi, where did you go before?" Why aren't you in the room?"
Qi Xuansu only felt a lot of confusion at this time, and he didn't have time to worry about Xiao Yin for the time being, so he planned to send Xiao Yin to Zhang Yuelu after he went back, and let Zhang Yuelu treat her.
"Get out and stay honest." Qi Xuansu put down Xiao Yin and waved her hand to get out.
Xiao Yin went out obediently.
Qi Xuansu sat on the jade platform and began to recall this trip to the Lingshan Cave Heaven.
Leaving aside the rest, the big question is, how did he die?
The immediate cause of death is, of course, that the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" is missing, and it is definitely not an illusion.
But how did the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" disappear?
Thinking of this, Qi Xuansu reached out and pressed his chest, this place was no longer empty.
The realm cultivation is back, and the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" is also back, what's going on?
Could it be that Qi Jiaoyao finally stuffed the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" into his chest and took effect?
Still doesn't make sense.
At this time, Qi Xuansu suddenly remembered the true face of Qi Jiaoyao he saw at the last time.
Both familiar and unfamiliar.
eye
The eye part is unfamiliar, and the part below the bridge of the nose is familiar.
At that time, Qi Xuansu was on the verge of death, weak and weak, his thoughts were in a mess, and he couldn't remember it for a while.
Now that Qi Xuansu has returned to normal, his thoughts have calmed down, and he immediately remembers.
After all, for celestial beings, there is almost no such thing as forgetting.
Isn't this Qi Niang?
Because Qi Niang wears huge sunglasses all year round, her eyes are indeed very unfamiliar, but the parts other than the sunglasses are not blocked, so she is naturally very familiar.
After thinking of this, Qi Xuansu only felt as if a dead knot had been opened, and many things were connected in an instant.
The name "Qi Jiao Yao", removing the middle grade model word "Jiao", is "Qi Yao", and it is "Yao Qi" upside down, homophonic "Yao Qi". It can also be directly understood as "teaching Yao Qi", that is, "calling Yao Qi".
and the sentence "It's you" that Yao Liu said before he died, obviously recognized Qi Jiaoyao's origin, but was killed by Qi Jiaoyao.
As well as Qi Jiaoyao's understanding of Lingshan Cave Heaven and Yao Zu Xing Palace, they are far beyond the scope of an assistant of the Chongyang Palace of Longevity.
Qi Xuansu also remembered a conversation he had with Qi Niang before.
"Yes, I have a son."
"I'm a lot older, so it's not strange to have a son, right?"
"He's dead, and I miss him so much."
"My son is both talented and good-looking, magnanimous, elegant and elegant, he is a first-class person in the world, what Li Changge, he is not worthy of lifting shoes for him, how can he be like you?"
"But when you're dying, you look at me like him, wet, like when he's dying."
In Yao Zu's Palace, Qi Xuansu made a bet with Qi Jiaoyao, Qi Xuansu lost, and had to recognize Qi Jiaoyao as his mother, and then died in front of Qi Jiaoyao's eyes.
It's all right.
has a son, but unfortunately died, Qi Xuansu is very similar to this dead son.
Can't it be like that?
It's the same person at all.
It is nothing more than a young Qi Xuansu, immature and young, and the other Qi Xuansu is in a high position, with majesty and nobility.
This is in turn in line with magnanimity and elegance.
Qi Jiaoyao deceived Qi Xuansu repeatedly, Qi Xuansu didn't hold grudges, and he didn't even care much about the ownership of immortals, in Qi Jiaoyao's eyes, wasn't he magnanimous? Isn't that elegant?
Of course, Qi Jiaoyao is still a little different from Qi Niang, after all, the age is different, one is the fledgling and slightly immature Yao Qi, and the other is Qi Niang, who has been tempered by decades of wind and frost.
There's a key question here.
Qi Xuansu was obviously a pseudo-ascension into the Lingshan Cave Heaven, but why did he return to the Lingshan Cave Heaven decades ago?
Thinking of this, Qi Xuansu couldn't help but look at the "Hidden Lantern" that was placed on the jade platform.
This lamp can predict the coming and going, but also go back in time.
Yijiazi is used once, and the Heavenly Master is in charge himself.
The Lingshan Cave Heaven was already shattered, and time and space were chaotic.
The "Hidden Lantern" is obviously the key to Qi Xuansu's return to the past.
If Qi Xuan Suzhen really returned to the Lingshan Cave Heaven in the past, then the disappearance of the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" could also be explained.
The characteristics of immortal creatures are otherworldly, not limited by time, space, yin and yang, and soul and body, and are the only ones that remain unchanged.
Before Qi Xuansu saw the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" in the Lingshan Cave Heaven, his "Heart of the Immortal Stone" was indeed real, but the moment Qi Jiaoyao dug out the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" from the witch's chest, because of the unique characteristics of immortals, Qi Xuansu's "Heart of the Immortal Stone" did not exist in this world.
So Qi Xuansu could only die.
Qi Xuansu's "Heart of the Immortal Stone" and the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" in the witch girl's chest are the same "Heart of the Immortal Stone".
In this way, Qi Jiaoyao is Yao Qi, and everything makes sense.
In the end, it was indeed Yao Qi who took away the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" from the Lingshan Cave Heaven, and Yao Qi's son died in the Lingshan Cave Heaven.
She misses him so much. Years later, she met a young man who resembled her son.
Let's do it again, this time, and come well.
Yao Qi failed to implant the "Heart of Immortal Stone" last time and failed to save his son. This time it was different, she rescued the young man, and she adopted the young man as her adopted son.
It is not a coincidence that Qi Niang appeared near the Kunlu Pass, but Qi Niang did it on purpose.
Because when she passed through the ban set by Yao Zu, Qi Jiaoyao witnessed the memory of the young man being chased and killed by the killer of the "Inn", and she knew about it.
Everything makes sense.
Many of Qi Xuansu's doubts in the past were solved at this moment.
Why did Qi Niang choose him?
Because Qi Niang is going to do it again.
All the gifts in fate have indeed been secretly marked with a price, but it may also be that the bill has been paid in advance, but the person who paid the bill has forgotten.
But then came more questions.
What does the name "Qi Xuansu" really mean?
Qi Xuansu didn't use this name before, but he changed it to this name after leaving the Vientiane Dao Palace.
Qi Xuansu told Qi Niang this name in the Lingshan Cave Heaven in the past.
Qi Niang was able to save Qi Xuansu at the last moment and it was not a coincidence, there was a high probability that Qi Haoran would have found Qi Haoran in advance, so Qi Haoran renamed his apprentice "Qi Xuansu".
After changing his name, Qi Xuansu went back to the past, and Qi Niang knew the name "Qi Xuansu".
It's a closed loop, and I don't know where to start.
At this moment, Qi Xuansu really wanted to meet Qi Niang immediately and talk to her in person.
And Master's secrets. The strange attitude of the Qi family, Qi Jiaozheng obviously knew about Qi Haoran's existence, but Qi Duyu didn't know anything.
Why didn't Qi Niang save Qi Haoran? With her realm cultivation, in the case of not a coincidence but preparation in advance, there is no such thing as being too late to be saved.
What's hidden here?
Did the Celestial Master already know all this? This is the truth that the Celestial Master wants him to see?
What method did the Heavenly Master use to make him return to the past Spirit Mountain Cave Heaven? I'm afraid it's not just a "hidden lantern".
If he had made changes in the past, such as accidentally killing Qi Jiaoyao, would the current Yao Qiniang disappear?
If he hadn't helped Qi Niang get the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" smoothly, would he suddenly lose the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" now?
There are so many paradoxes in this that it is completely impossible to explain.
All this made Qi Xuansu unable to understand at all.
Now he can only find two people to answer his questions.
One is the key figure in all this, Qi Niang.
The other is to let him go back to the past, the Celestial Master.
