Jiang Bai's consciousness was like a lonely boat on the sea. Unexpectedly, the boat was overturned by the big waves. His brain protection mechanism was activated directly and he forcibly exited this space.
In the ranger's cabin, Jiang Bai opened his eyes with a confused expression.
who I am? Where is this? Why am I here?
He felt that his mind was blank at the moment and he couldn't think of anything.
Seeing that he was awake, Gudong purred happily and leaned on his shoulder to rub his head.
I have to say that pets follow their owners. Jiang Bai likes to rub against Hutao, and Gudong likes to rub against him.
Jiang Bai subconsciously reached out and touched its head, but his brows furrowed tightly.
It's so familiar, but I can't remember it.
He sat on the bed, unconsciously rubbing Gudong's head, lost in thought.
Not long after, Tinari opened the door and came in.
"you're awake."
Tinari was not too surprised by Jiang Bai's awakening.
Sora in the hut next to him was also awake.
Jiang Bai didn't speak, he was just subconsciously vigilant.
When you don’t know anything, you have to be careful about everything.
"Is there anything else that feels uncomfortable?" Tinari looked over inquiringly.
Jiang Bai shook his head.
"As long as there are no uncomfortable places. Although Lingxianxiang is harmless to the body, people who are stimulated may still have a headache and disorder after waking up. It is best for you to rest here for a few more days and wait until you are completely recovered before leaving. …”
"Lingxianxiang?"
"This is the incense Hypatia lit when she taught you to meditate."
"So I inhaled this incense and passed out?"
Jiang Bai got a lot of information from this passage, but he felt something was not right.
Although his mind was blank now, he felt that things should not be so simple.
If its brain was normal before it fainted, why was it blank when it woke up and couldn't even remember who it was?
"This fragrance should be more than that, right?"
Tinari's eyes moved slightly, "Did you also sense something?"
Sora next to him is directly linked to the World Tree, could he be the same?
Jiang Bai didn't speak.
Seeing his reaction, Tinari knew that he was inseparable.
"The incense is made from several plants created by the Great Merciful Tree King. It can stimulate people's perception of the power of the Grass God. Some people with sensitive perceptions can temporarily connect to the World Tree through it..."
'World Tree...' Jiang Bai murmured this word in his heart.
"What will happen if it's connected?"
His intuition told him that this matter was related to the World Tree.
"Um?"
Tinari felt that Jiang Bai might have encountered something different from Sora.
However, he doesn't know much about Jiang Bai, and today is also the first day he meets him. Since he is already linked, it doesn't hurt to explain.
"The World Tree contains all the memories and knowledge from ancient times to the present. Scholars are trying to find answers through the World Tree. But this is also a very dangerous thing."
Seeing Jiang Bai just thinking and not speaking, Tinari suddenly asked:
"You shouldn't have come into contact with the knowledge of World Tree rashly, right?"
Tinari's expression was very serious. You must know that connecting to the World Tree is a very dangerous thing.
The knowledge in the World Tree is vast, and there is even knowledge of gods.
Many scholars in the Order Academy became madmen because of exposure to this knowledge.
If you don't pay attention to methods and come into contact with that massive amount of knowledge rashly, your brain will be overwhelmed by the torrent of memory and you will become an idiot.
"What will happen if you come into contact?"
Jiang Bai felt that the case was solved.
My current situation is that I have rashly come into contact with the knowledge of World Tree.
Tinari's expression was extremely serious, "What's your situation now?"
The person in front of him must have rashly touched the knowledge of World Tree.
After talking so much, Jiang Bai felt that the man with ears on his head in front of him was not hostile to him, and it didn't matter if he said it.
The other party is probably one of the few people who can help him.
"I can't remember anything." Jiang Bai told the truth.
Gudong on the side widened his eyes.
The master has lost his memory, what should I do?
Tinari's heart sank.
How could there be such a bold person?
You must know that even the scholars of the Order Academy are cautious when coming into contact with the World Tree, and only dare to seek the answers to the knowledge they want from the World Tree.
It's easy to go crazy like this.
But the stupid young man in front of him rashly touched the World Tree without any preparation. He was really strong enough to not become an idiot!
But there is no point in scolding at this time.
This was their first time coming into contact with World Tree, and they didn’t know any taboos.
"Lie down and tell me the details of your body now, and I will give you a good check-up."
After checking, Tinari went out with a serious look.
He wanted to go back and read some books, and write a letter to ask his mentor how to retrieve his memory in this situation.
Watching him walk out, Jiang Bai showed a helpless smile.
Why did he feel like he wasn't panicking at all?
It seems like this isn't the first time this has happened.
Gudong flew in front of him. Looking at the worried little guy in front of him, Jiang Bai rubbed his head again.
"Little guy, I have to rely on you while I recover my memory."
"Gu——"
Gudong made a purring sound like bubbles, and the little hand made a decent salute.
Promise to protect the master!
"You purr? Is it Gudong?"
Gudong opened his eyes in surprise and nodded.
Although the owner has lost his memory, he still looks very impressive and guessed its name so quickly.
Jiang Bai held his chin and smiled.
He was just thinking about the name of the little guy in front of him, and subconsciously thought that he should be called [Gudong].
It seems that my memory has been temporarily shut down by the brain's protective mechanism. This shutdown is not irreversible and should be restored slowly.
"Let's go and see the companion who also sensed the World Tree."
Jiang Bai stood up and walked out.
Tinari has just revealed that he has a companion, and like him, he fainted after inhaling the incense and sensed the World Tree.
"Ah, Jiang Bai, you're awake!"
Seeing Jiang Bai come out, Paimon greeted him cheerfully.
Tinari left in a hurry, before she could tell them that Jiang Bai had lost his memory.
So my name is Jiang Bai?
Jiang Bai nodded and looked inside the room, "Is he awake?"
"Sora has woken up, but is still a little uncomfortable. Tinari said he would stay here for a few more days."
It turns out the person inside is named Kong.
Jiang Bai got another piece of information.
"Okay, let me go in and take a look." As he said that, he walked into the house.
Looking at the blond boy sitting in the room, although he couldn't think of anything, Jiang Bai still asked very naturally:
"How are you?"
"I'm fine, but my head is still a little dizzy."
Gudong tilted his head. If the master hadn't said that he had lost his memory, he really wouldn't be able to feel it at all.
