Closing his eyes, the scenes of the past regressed in Lin Zhen's mind......

Ten years ago.

Dawn City, Lin Family Manor.

In a chair in a glass corridor, Lin Zhen looked at the screen where the call failed, his pupils trembled slightly, and his mood couldn't help but be extremely irritable.

Yan Shenjun has disappeared for three days, and Lin Zhen has tried all the ways to contact her, as if Yan Shenjun has disappeared out of thin air.

As a childhood sweetheart, Lin Zhen has never left Yan Shenjun for more than a day, and now, Lin Zhen has been away from Yan Shenjun for three days.

In the entire Yan family, there was no news of Yan Shenjun, and Lin Zhen searched all the places where the two frequented, but found nothing.

Time passed day by day, and Lin Zhen became more and more absent-minded about everything except looking for Yan Shenjun.

A year later, Lin Zhen accidentally found that the people around him seemed to have forgotten Yan Shenjun's existence, and even Yan Shenjun's parents never remembered their children, which made Lin Zhen fall into a huge panic.

What's wrong, why did they all forget Yan Shenjun, why is this happening......

This situation lasted for a year until Lin Zhen was seventeen years old, and finally, Lin Zhen couldn't stand such days, and after making up his mind, Lin Zhen decided to run away from home and look for Yan Shenjun.

Mother Lin didn't feel anything wrong with Lin Zhen's decision, she just felt that Lin Zhen was sick, and maybe after a while, Lin Zhen would naturally return to the Lin family.

With this thought, Lin's mother agreed to Lin Zhen's running away from home.

Lin Zhen's departure is eight years, and in these eight years, Lin Zhen has not heard any news except for occasionally receiving messages from his mother.

………………

Retracting his memory, Lin Zhen looked at the windowsill covered with cobwebs with a sad expression, could it be that all this is fake? Lin Zhen asked himself again in his heart.

"Your soul is not complete, and this king has not seen in your memory these things that you remember." The woman looked at Lin Zhen, who was confused, and said slowly.

"Missing a piece?" Lin Zhen's pupils flashed, he reached out and touched his chest a few times, and asked in disbelief, "Impossible, if the soul is missing, shouldn't people die?" ”

What does the woman mean by what she said, could it be that everything she and her childhood sweetheart have just come up with her own imagination? As soon as he thought of this, Lin Zhen felt a suffocating depression, could it be that all this was fake?

What you have done in the past eight years is the result of your own imagination?

"I still remember all my past events......" Lin Zhen looked at the floor with blank eyes, muttering to himself.

I'm incomplete? No way!!

Lin Zhen lowered his head and looked at his hands, feeling that his scalp was a little numb, and his hands began to grasp his scalp unconsciously hard.

The nails scratched Lin Zhen's scalp and scarred, and scarlet blood flowed down the scalp to the corners of his forehead, and then dripped onto the dusty floor.

Tick tock......

It was like the sound of water droppings, the only light sound in this long-abandoned room.

Lin Zhen, who doubted his life, at this moment, all the beliefs he insisted on seemed to collapse.

After a long time......

Lin Zhen stood up slowly and walked towards the door.

The hollow and dead eyes were no different from a beggar who had lost his soul.

Squeak......

"If this king can restore his full prosperity, the answer you want to know, this king can find ...... for you"

The creaking of the wooden door came to an abrupt end.

The movements in Lin Zhen's hands froze suddenly.

"How am I supposed to be?" Lin Zhen turned around slowly, looking at Yan Shenjun's side face, that familiar feeling resurfaced from his heart again, just a glance, Lin Zhen glanced out the window.

This woman is too similar to Yan Shenjun she knows, and she is too beautiful.

"Become a cultivator and find the three fountains of life for this king." Yan Shenjun's tone was calm, but in this calm, Lin Zhen could still hear that extremely natural arrogance in his voice.

Become a cultivator?

Lin Zhen narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was no thought in his eyes.

"What is the Fountain of Life?" Lin Zhen asked.

"A companion of the World Tree."

"The World Tree?" Lin Zhen's expression was a little stagnant.

Lin Zhen had never heard of the World Tree, nor did he know what the World Tree was, but from this woman's words, Lin Zhen knew that it was something very important.

"And where are all these fountains of life?" Lin Zhen asked.

"All over the Xuan Realm, and in the forbidden land."

"Forbidden land?" Lin Zhen's pupils were slightly turbulent, and the corners of his mouth were slightly open.

Even if Lin Zhen was not a cultivator, he knew that there were a total of seven forbidden places in the Xuan Realm, and each forbidden land was a place that cultivators did not dare to set foot in, and it was rumored that even top cultivators did not dare to enter it easily.

"The forbidden land is not so terrible, this king has set foot in several forbidden places, and it is not as they say." Feeling Lin Zhen's scruples, Yan Shenjun's eyes were calm, and her cherry-like red lips opened again: "Don't you want to know the answer you should know?" Don't you want to see the person you think about day and night? ”

"In that storm, was it my senior who saved me?" Lin Zhen did not answer Yan Shenjun's rhetorical question, but instead called Yan Shenjun a senior, maybe in this way, he could break the only remaining thoughts in his heart.

"Yes, and the underdogs around you."

Lin Zhen was stunned, then arched his hand towards Yan Shenjun, and said gratefully, "Thank you seniors." ”

"Then how do I become a cultivator? I have never felt the Xuan Qi, nor have I ever felt the existence of the dantian. ”

In the entire Xuan Realm, human beings will begin to slowly awaken the dantian at the age of ten, and the earlier the dantian awakens, the higher the person's future achievements.

If the later the dantian awakens, the more it means that this person will be very mediocre in the future.

Once the Dantian is awakened after the age of twenty, then this cultivator's realm in the future will not exceed the Xuanling Realm.

And now Lin Zhen is already twenty-five years old, and after such a long time, Lin Zhen still hasn't felt the dantian, let alone cultivated.

"A crippled person can't become a cultivator, maybe your soul has already been crippled long before you are ten years old." Yan Shenjun opened his mouth and patiently explained.

Well?

I can't become a cultivator because my soul is incomplete? Am I crippled? Lin Zhen's head was big for a while, no wonder he had never felt the things about cultivation in other people's mouths for so many years, Xuan Qi, and Dantian.

"Nourishing the soul and returning the pill, it can make up for the broken souls of ordinary people."

……

"That'...... I should go back......" Lin Zhen's pupils shook again, and he exhaled slowly, Lin Zhen put his hand in his pocket and took out a mobile phone.

The phone is turned off.

In this Xuan Realm, the operation of the city does not depend on electricity and fuel, everything only needs Xuan Qi to be enough.

People invented the device for the transformation of Xuan Qi at a very early age.

This is also why in this world, technology and cultivation go hand in hand.

Not everyone will become a cultivator in the end, in the Xuan Realm, there are still a large number of people who are ordinary people, and these technologies are also for ordinary people to live a better life.

Lin Zhen didn't have a mystery, so he looked at Yan Shenjun a little helplessly.

It's just that Yan Shenjun didn't pay attention to Lin Zhen's gaze, but in front of Lin Zhen, his body began to dissipate, turning into countless white starlight.

These starlights flew in the direction of Lin Zhen like living creatures.

Lin Zhen looked at these starlights in great astonishment, and even raised his hand unconsciously, wanting to touch these points of light.

In Lin Zhen's shocked gaze, these points of light all drilled into the jade pendant around his neck.

What Lin Zhen didn't know was that there was a vast small space inside this jade pendant, just like a small world.

The starlight conjured up by Yan Shenjun slowly condensed into Yan Shenjun again in this space.

It's just that her face is extremely pale, her eyebrows are slightly frowned, and her weak appearance makes this space feel sorry and heartbroken.

Fishy sweet blood suddenly flowed out of Yan Shenjun's thin lips.

This also made Yan Shenjun's originally slim and elegant posture slightly bent a little, and the bloodless delicate face was even more pale.

……

In the room, Lin Zhen watched the starlight disappear into his chest, and couldn't help but reach out and touch the jade pendant.

"My memories can't be fake, perhaps, after I find the three fountains of life, all this can be revealed." Lin Zhen looked at the dusty room and made a decision in his heart.

Even Lin Zhen himself didn't know why he believed this woman named Yan Shenjun.

Maybe she has too much similarity with Yan Shenjun in her memory.

Pushing open the door, ignoring the dust falling on the beams, Lin Zhen came to the lobby of this old mansion.

Coincidentally, the door to the lobby was pushed open, and a slightly familiar figure walked in.

"I know you're fine, you're hungry." When the old man saw Lin Zhen, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then, as if he was doing a trick, he took out a bottle of elixir from the ring and threw it in the direction of Lin Zhen.

Raising his hand to catch the jade bottle, pulling out the stopper, Lin Zhen stuffed the pill into his mouth, this pill melted in his mouth, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a warm current, flowing down Lin Zhen's throat towards his abdomen, this warm feeling made Lin Zhen feel a little comfortable, and even the original hunger was gone.

"Old man, it's time for me to go back." Licking his lips, Lin Zhen watched the old man speak slowly.

"Why is the young man so sad, get ready, then let's go back." The old man walked up to Lin Zhen, patted Lin Zhen's shoulder, and nodded.

There are no horses and no commercial vehicles, and it seems to be more difficult to find a way back, but this is only for Lin Zhen.

Outside.

"Is this a sled?" Lin Zhen looked at a simple sleigh in front of him and asked a little strangely.

"No, it's a tank." The old man glanced at Lin Zhen.

Sweat!

It's true nonsense.

"Pull me?" Lin Zhen raised his eyes and looked around, this heavy snow had been falling for too long, and the thickness of the snow was as deep as Lin Zhen's abdomen, if he really walked, it was indeed not a way.

"Pulling pigs, I said you kid can't leave." The old man spread the rope with one hand and flew towards Lin Zhen while spitting.

"Of course."

"Eh, eh! Old man, tap it, don't lose me!! ”

"Slow down!! Slow down! Don't bump into it! ”

"Stinky boy, can you stop screaming, how can it be like you haven't seen the world!" The old man grabbed the rope in one hand and ran wildly across the snow!!

The group of people in the caravan behind him also followed.

"It's not like I've never seen the world, it's the first time I've ridden a sled pulled by a person like this!!" Lin Zhen grabbed the handrails of the sleigh tightly with both hands and shouted at the old man in front of him.

At this high speed, Lin Zhen had to pour a big mouthful of cold wind into every mouth, and even the jacket on his body was blown to the sound of hunting!!

"Haven't you ever sat in it or haven't seen the world? This kind of service costs a lot of money, boy!! The old man laughed.

…………

in a small town.

"Young man, are you really leaving?" Next to the stove, the old man raised his head and poured a few sips of wine, looking at Lin Zhen, who was dressed neatly in front of him.

"The purpose of this trip has been accomplished." Lin Zhen nodded, picked up a piece of firewood next to him, and put it into the fire.

"If you know the man who saved us, remember to thank him for us." The old man handed the wine bag in his hand to Lin Zhen.

"I've already thanked you." Lin Zhen took the wine bag and took a shallow sip.

"That's good." The old man nodded, glanced at Lin Zhen with cloudy eyes, and continued: "The question you asked me that day, I think, I can give you the answer." ”

"Huh?" Lin Zhen turned his head, and the wrinkles on the old man's face were under the orange firelight, and the print was clearly extinguished.

"Our caravan will go to Liquan Town twice a year to deliver goods for free, in fact, it doesn't make much sense for us to do this, but what about the people of Liquan Town?" The old man took back the wine bag in Lin Zhen's hand and poured it again.

"I'm a rough man, I've been following caravans for most of my life, and I don't know what the truth is, but what I know is that anything is meaningful, and your choice means a lot to you, even if you persist until the end, you don't get results."

It's like Liquan Town, even if the whole town is gone, then what the old man's caravan used to do is meaningless.

……

The departing bullet train was already starting, Lin Zhen sat in the window seat, looked at the old man who came to see him off, and nodded with a smile.
