"But have you ever thought that you only remember what Zhuyin wants you to remember?"
"Or, if they can make you forget something, will they also find a way to make you remember something that didn't exist in the first place..."
"Or people?"
Qin Huan's words echoed in Chu Qingxiao's mind.
Chu Qingxiao's body trembled even more violently, and a severe pain began to explode in his brain, rushing towards the limbs and bones of his body.
The images in his memory began to shake and blur...
In Wuling City...
When he was seven years old, Chu Qingxiao took the hand of a five-year-old girl and came to his father.
"Dad! Nian Shuang wants to eat peaches, go and pick some."
It was Chenshi. Chu Yueshan, who was hungover from yesterday, had just gotten up and was in a hurry to go to the Yamen to report. Naturally, he had no intention of meeting Chu Qingxiao.
"In the evening, when you come back in the evening, dad will bring it to you."
The young Chu Qingxiao looked at his father's leaving figure, then looked at the eager little girl, gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay, brother will pick it for you."
…
When he was eleven years old, it was raining heavily and Chu Qingxiao was sleeping groggyly when he suddenly felt something moving in the quilt.
He suddenly woke up.
But he saw a little head peeking out from the bed, looking at him pitifully: "Brother, I'm afraid."
Chu Qingxiao smiled bitterly, touched her head and said, "It's okay, I'll stay with you."
…
When he was sixteen years old, Zhao Nianshuang suddenly disappeared.
Chu Qingxiao was very anxious after not finding the girl for a long time.
He searched around Wuling City like crazy, and finally saw Zhao Nianshuang squatting in the corner with red eyes and wiping tears in an alley not far from Taohua Study.
"Nian Shuang! What's wrong with you?" He walked forward anxiously and asked worriedly.
Zhao Nianshuang raised his head and threw himself into Chu Qingxiao's arms with red eyes.
"Just now, Wang Che and the others scolded me, saying that I was an orphan that no one wanted..."
Chu Qingxiao was immediately furious, and regardless of Zhao Nianshuang's dissuasion, he turned around and rushed into the study angrily, and struggled with Wang Che.
…
These are all things that happened in Wuling City, and they are all vivid images in Chu Qingxiao's mind.
But now with the pain in his brain, these images began to become distorted and blurred.
It was as if there was an invisible force that wanted to peel away all these things and reveal his true appearance.
So...
When he was seven years old, the boy stood alone in front of Chu Yueshan, clamoring to eat peaches, but the man who was eager to go to work casually ignored him, and then left in a hurry. The boy looked at his departing father, and finally resisted. The greedy man couldn't stop his mouth and secretly ran to Xuandu Temple.
When he was eleven years old, the boy who had obviously grown up like a little adult could not fall asleep while listening to the rumble of tears outside the window. He was so frightened in his heart that he wrapped the sheets tightly around himself and kept his mouth shut. Li kept chanting: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, there are no ghosts in this world."
And when he was sixteen years old, during a break in class, Wang Che pointed at Chu Qingxiao and laughed: "Look at that guy, his father is an alcoholic, and he is also a fool. He has been reading an article over and over again for more than ten days, and he still can't memorize it. He is destined to spend his whole life. Despicable life."
The angry young man grabbed the bench, rushed forward, and got into a fight with the rich young man.
…
As the figures belonging to Zhao Nianshuang in those pictures disappeared one by one, Chu Qingxiao knelt on the ground with a plop.
His red eyes were fixed on Zhao Nianshuang, who was fighting with Mu Nanshan, and he kept mumbling to himself.
"impossible……"
"impossible……"
"Nothing is impossible. You underestimate the power of the ancient gods." Qin Huan stood in front of him and looked at him condescendingly.
"This heaven and earth has its own laws. Previously, these laws were set by the ancient gods. After the ancestor gods ascended to heaven, they modified the rules of heaven and earth. In order to prevent the ancient gods from escaping from the seal, they removed the ancient gods from their existence. Erased from the laws of heaven and earth.”
"Once the ancient gods are born, the laws of heaven will regard them as aliens and aliens."
"Like all evil gods outside the realm, they are eroded by the mighty power of heaven and earth. Even if they are strong enough and will not die from the attack of the mighty power of heaven and earth, it is difficult for them to regain their full combat power."
"The most important thing is that the ancestor gods and the gods under them will discover his existence as soon as possible."
"Then destroy them."
"Just like people from the Northern Wei Dynasty want to pretend to be my people in Daxia, the first thing they have to do is to forge an identity for themselves and deceive the border guards. And if the ancient gods want to enter the world, they also need a forger. His identity proves that his existence is not an alien."
"And you, and those who remember her in Wuling City, are her means of deceiving the world."
"Chu Qingxiao, this is not something you can participate in. I think you are a pretty good person and I have the heart to cultivate you. It's not too late to go back now."
Veins popped up on Chu Qingxiao's forehead, and he raised his head with difficulty and looked forward again.
The fight between Zhao Nianshuang and Mu Nanshan was still going on there, but even with the bonus of the power of the ancestral spirits, Mu Nanshan was gradually at a disadvantage in front of Zhao Nianshuang, who had strange methods, and his moves became more and more sluggish.
At this moment, Chu Qingxiao, who was looking at Zhao Nianshuang, suddenly felt that this girl had become strange.
Yes.
As those memories are stripped away, the sense of familiarity fades.
"Do you know why everyone in Wuling City has to die?" Qin Huan's voice sounded in Chu Qingxiao's ears again.
"Because people are unstable, although she has imprinted her memories into your minds, these false memories will change over time, and there are flaws. Especially for those who are not familiar with her, Once a large number of people discover that there is a problem with their memory, her identity as an ancient god may be exposed to the power of heaven and earth, but for the dead, such worries will no longer exist."
"All this is just a play she directed and performed."
"It's like a spy who entered the country in the Northern Wei Dynasty. After his forged household registration was seen and recorded by the people at the border, he would destroy it, because if no one saw it more, the probability of being discovered would increase."
"Her appearance is the result of the tacit understanding of some powerful wills that you can't imagine."
"Since you survived, there is no need to cause trouble for yourself, especially for someone who doesn't actually exist for you..."
"His Royal Highness King Wu." Chu Qingxiao suddenly interrupted Qin Huan at this moment. He looked at Qin Huan with deep eyes, the expression on his face was still painful, but his tone became calmer.
Qin Huan vaguely noticed something strange about Chu Qingxiao, he frowned and stared at Chu Qingxiao.
A smile appeared on Chu Qingxiao's painful face at that time.
"His Royal Highness King Wu's words are very good, and his methods are also very powerful, but unfortunately, Chu Qingxiao never sees the world by listening to what others say, but seeing it with his own heart."
"I know who is true and who is false, I know better than anyone else, I don't need King Wu to teach me!"
"Even if King Wu tamperes with my memory ten more times, I will still remember what I should remember."
After hearing this, Qin Huan frowned a little deeper: "Chu Qingxiao, you really don't want to give up until you reach the Yellow River..."
"It's not that I won't give up until I reach the Yellow River, but that I know who I am and who Nian Shuang is..."
"These things are decided by ourselves, not others. Even His Highness King Wu cannot change this!"
After Chu Qingxiao said that, he rushed towards Zhao Nianshuang in a flash. At that time, he stood in front of Mu Nanshan and opened his arms to face Zhao Nianshuang's sword blade.
