Because the closed loop of time and space was not formed until Chen Sheng returned to reality, Chen Sheng did not go looking for Bai Jingjing under the peach tree since the establishment of Yongzhou.
Just like Aya who pursued Chen Sheng through Yggdrasil two thousand years ago. Before Chen Sheng obtained Yggdrasil in real time and space, Aya's own history was still an illusion that had not yet been finalized, a closed loop of time and space that could not be logically and self-consistently linked.
It was not until Chen Sheng obtained Yggdrasil in real time and space that Aya, who had been sleeping in the illusion for more than 2000 years, became real and truly came to Chen Sheng's side.
The same goes for Bai Jingjing here.
Before Chen Sheng went to change history, in the original history, there was actually nothing under the peach tree.
After Chen Sheng came back from changing the past history, he found a white skeleton that had existed since ancient times under the peach tree.
For such a closed loop of space and time, space and time will give an explanation.
The reason why Bai Jingjing has not been discovered is that she absorbed the vitality of all the fleeing monsters including apes, wild boars, and catfish 1,400 years ago, which made her sleep for 1,400 years and fuse her powers.
In order not to disturb her, Chen Sheng never dug her out.
Such reasons had already been sent into Chen Sheng's mind by the will of time and space when he first came back.
For the sake of the stability of time and space, Chen Sheng naturally nodded and readily agreed to this reason.
Chen Sheng looked at the excited girl in front of him and showed a happy smile.
Bai Jingjing buried herself in the soil and waited for more than a thousand years for her original promise of "I will definitely come to you."
This made Chen Sheng feel very complicated.
He didn't know what to say. Without him, Bai Jingjing might not have existed, but with him, Bai Jingjing had been lonely for more than a thousand years.
The thousands of words he was thinking in his heart made him silent for a long time before he slowly spoke:
"A person's shadow cannot cover the entire earth, but some sounds can travel far."
"You have done a great job in completing the unfinished business that I asked you after I left."
"Really good."
Chen Sheng smiled and praised Bai Jingjing in front of him.
He didn't know how to express his complicated emotions, so he chose to get down to business.
Before he left Xuanzang and Bai Jingjing, he asked them to deal with the remaining monsters so that human history could continue stably and normally.
Then, they both did it.
This naturally made him feel very gratified.
Two apprentices helped him solve the tasks that he had not actually completed, which gave him a sense of trance as he watched the two of them grow up.
"I said……"
"I will definitely come to you."
Bai Jingjing didn't pay attention to Chen Sheng's praise, and just threw herself into Chen Sheng's arms.
There was a hint of crying in her voice.
She didn't cry when we parted.
But at this moment, she couldn't help but sob softly.
"Thanks a lot."
Chen Sheng touched Bai Jingjing's head and comforted the child who finally found his parents.
Bai Yu sitting on the side was silent in a wheelchair.
She felt that staying here was a bit embarrassing, but pushing the electric wheelchair out of here seemed too deliberate.
She simply sat quietly without saying a word.
While watching the two reminiscing about old times, I thought about something about this white-bone demon.
She didn't pay much attention to her family's past before, but now she needs to take a closer look.
This peach tree has belonged to their family since ancient times. Even though it experienced several turmoils in the world, it eventually returned to their family.
Combined with the several jars of peach blossom wine exposed in the pit, we can roughly deduce a conclusion: The Bai family has been involved with Yong Zhou for an inexplicable reason a long time ago.
This made her think deeply, and she suddenly had the idea of exploring her family's history.
Could it be said that my family was once a descendant of the White Bone Demon? Or maybe there is some inextricable connection between our ancestors and the White Bone Demon?
While she was thinking, the man and the demon, the master and the apprentice, were still communicating.
"How are you and Xuanzang doing after I left?"
Chen Sheng asked with concern.
"It's a long story."
Bai Jingjing raised her head and looked seriously at Chen Sheng, who was listening intently in front of her.
Hearing this, Bai Yu, who just wanted to be a backdrop, couldn't help but widen his eyes.
What did she hear? Xuanzang? !
Did the leader just say something about Xuanzang? !
If I remember correctly, there should not be many celebrities named Xuanzang in historical legends...
The combination of Xuanzang and the White Bone Demon forced her to have many unwarranted associations.
Could it be said that Journey to the West is documentary literature? Isn’t that old boy Wu Chengen simple?
Or is Journey to the West just a magically adapted narrative of a certain real past? So what role does Yong Zhou play in it?
Many speculations flashed through her mind, which made her, the No. 1 Naga Hirubuki, unable to help but get excited.
So her eyes flickered, and then she silently took out a recording pen from the space token, intending to record everything she was about to say.
These will all be precious information.
If used as a teaching material, it can completely increase the sense of belonging of organizational members.
…
Bai Jingjing, on the other hand, didn't pay attention to the excited Bai Yu. Since the master didn't say much, it meant that this woman's existence had no impact, so she slowly recounted the past.
Bai Yu and Chen Sheng also listened carefully.
According to Bai Jingjing, after Chen Sheng left, the two of them did not fall into silence and sadness for too long.
Soon, the two people came to a decision.
Bai Jingjing went all the way east and across the ocean in search of monsters, and Xuanzang went all the way west to Nalanda Temple to inherit Master Jiexian's seal.
On the sea, the vast ocean that ordinary people cannot cross is just easy for Bai Jingjing.
But Chen Sheng naturally understood that the loneliness of wandering in the vast sea was not easy.
After that, Bai Jingjing crossed the vast ocean and saw uncivilized human races on the other side of the ocean, saw civilizations that were still in the tribal period, and saw various different animals and plants...
"There is a plant that I have never seen before. The dry leaves are like millet and the flowers are like ears of rice. Its bracts are as long as a fist, its whiskers are like red velvet, and its grains are like gorgon seeds. They are large and shiny white. The flowers bloom at the top and the seeds are like gorgon seeds. Ties in knots.”
"Although it's weird, the yield is abundant, and the taste is very suitable for me."
When Bai Jingjing said this, she was obviously a little excited.
Obviously, during those lonely days when she was searching for the monster's vitality, without her senior brother and master by her side, finding delicious food became something that left a deep impression on her.
"That's called corn. It's everywhere in the Central Plains now. I'll take you to eat it every day from now on."
Chen Sheng touched Bai Jingjing's head lovingly.
Corn originated in Central America and is now the most widely distributed crop in the world.
At the beginning, Bai Jingjing could only taste the corn on the other side of the ocean. Today, Chen Sheng, as the master, guarantees that she can eat as much as she wants.
But thinking about this, he couldn't help but feel a little sorry for his apprentice.
Unexpectedly, in order to find the monster's life, Bai Jingjing even crossed the Pacific Ocean to America. The hardships involved are not understandable to outsiders.
Chen Sheng was silent.
But Bai Jingjing continued to talk.
During this difficult and novel exploration process, her energy was not in vain, and she finally found a monster alive in a rain forest and captured it.
Bai Jingjing did not describe too much about the process of this battle. For her who had merged many rays of monster vitality, it was not too strenuous to deal with the monster transformed by the last ray of monster vitality.
AD 645.
Xuanzang inherited the sealed monster's vitality and a large number of Buddhist scriptures and returned to the Central Plains. She also traveled across the ocean to find the monster's vitality and returned to reunite with Xuanzang.
On that day, everyone went on strike and lined the streets to welcome him. This has not happened since the Holy Dynasty.
Most of the people in Chang'an City flocked to look forward to the return of the holy monk. On that day, Bai Jingjing was also among the crowd watching her senior brother show off.
Compared to her senior brother who had no choice but to become famous and become a holy monk while traveling west, she, who had not seen anyone along the way, was almost unknown to anyone.
But she had no idea about it.
Bai Jingjing likes to be lively and enjoys watching the world among the people. During those days on the other side of the ocean, when there was nothing to see in the world, she did feel a deep sense of loneliness.
But although she likes the excitement, she doesn't like to be the center of it. She just wants to quietly watch the world of mortals.
So she didn't go directly to her senior brother when she came back.
Soon after, when Xuanzang, who had been mediating with the then emperor Li Shimin and others for a long time, was placed in Hongfu Temple, she sneaked in quietly.
The brother and sister spent a long time together at Hongfu Temple, each talking about their own experiences.
Compared to her, Xuanzang's experience was not far behind.
Speaking of this, Bai Jingjing's tone became a little excited: "Compared to my somewhat boring experience of not seeing any intelligent creatures, senior brother has experienced a lot along the way."
"Three years after you left, Master, senior brother officially left Chang'an and embarked on the road to the west."
"Although we encountered various natural disasters and natural dangers along the way, with the strength of my senior brother, I was able to push through them directly."
"Whether it's desert or snow-capped mountains, lakes or plains, nothing can stop senior brother. I don't know how many horses were exhausted along the way, but senior brother is still as normal as a normal person."
"Besides the natural environment, if you encounter bandits or other man-made disasters on the road, senior brother will skillfully tear them into pieces and bury them directly. It's so clean and neat and leaves no traces."
"The kings along the way only marveled and sighed at the great perseverance of the senior brother, and directly called him the holy monk, but they had no idea that the holy monk never showed mercy, and everyone who saw him take action died."
Bai Jingjing excitedly recounted what she learned while chatting with her senior brother at Hongfu Temple in those days.
Senior brother is still as fierce as ever.
Chen Sheng nodded happily after hearing this.
That's how it should be!
Chen Sheng's purpose of training Xuanzang was to reduce the hardship of Xuanzang's journey to the west and to strengthen Xuanzang's decisive character of clear love and hatred.
Doesn’t this effect come out?
Externally, Xuanzang is known to everyone as a holy monk who has great perseverance and insists on traveling westward. Internally, Xuanzang is a man who kills gods and Buddhas and insists on what he believes to be justice.
However, even with his participation, the development of history seems to have not changed much.
Everything seems to lead to the same destination by different routes, and the result is no different from real history.
Bai Yu, who was on the side, gradually opened her mouth as she listened.
From Bai Jingjing's narration, she roughly understood that Xuanzang was the Xuanzang who traveled westward in history, not the Xuanzang in Journey to the West.
It's just that there are some differences between this Xuanzang and the Xuanzang in history that she knows.
Xuanzang, who had great perseverance, turned into Mang King Kong in Bai Jingjing's mouth at this moment? One person casually penetrated the Westbound dungeon? !
In terms of Journey to the West, it means that Tang Sanzang defeated ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties by himself, easily defeated a monster with one punch, and finally went directly to the Great Leiyin Temple in the West to seize the true scripture.
She wanted to complain: Where did you find this unofficial history? ! As the saying goes, drama is not nonsense, and adaptation is not random fabrication...
But when she thought about the important role her organization played in history, she had to accept a fact that impacted her outlook:
Xuanzang was a super fierce man and the leader's original disciple. His journey to the west seemed not only to find the real Buddhist scriptures, but also to complete a task that the leader had entrusted to him.
But thinking about this, some historical records made her a little confused.
If most of the details recorded in history do not match the image of Xuanzang as a macho man, it can probably be attributed to errors and changes in historical records.
But the record about Xuanzang’s illness in his later years and his death should not be wrong, right?
How could such a fierce man end up like this? Can the pain and disease in the world really make such a fierce man pass away?
In this regard, without waiting for her to ask, Bai Jingjing's continued narration gave her the answer.
"It's a pity that senior brother's life was not very good after that."
"Although he said he was happy translating Buddhist scriptures, I could see the chaos inside him. He was just pretending to be fine."
"After inheriting a large group of monster vitality from Master Jiexian, he has been tortured by the monster's vitality before he reaches the eighth level of consciousness."
"For example, Master Jiexian only sealed the monster's vitality for a few years, and then he became confused, seriously ill, and physically exhausted. After delivering the monster's vitality to Xuanzang, he had already entered a countdown to his death."
"Although senior brother is more talented and highly talented in the spiritual cultivation system, he has never been able to reach the realm of the eighth consciousness. He has been tortured by the monster's vitality in his body for many years."
"I wanted to help absorb some of the monsters' vitality, but I found that I couldn't absorb so much at all."
"Later, when Li Shimin passed away, after Li Zhi came to power, he violently attacked the old ministers. Senior brother was also involved and was placed under house arrest by Li Zhi for a long time. In short, all kinds of worldly troubles followed one after another."
"I want to go directly and kill the troublemaker Li Zhi, but my senior brother asked me not to get involved in this political matter, and not to interfere with the general trend of the times like you said, Master. Now he just wants to finish your work quickly, Master Instructions before leaving."
"Fortunately, he finally touched the realm of the eighth consciousness and solved everything before passing away."
"After that, I went to the Jiangnan area and found a family who made good wine. After giving them some luck, I fell asleep under their peach tree."
After Bai Jingjing finished talking about everything in the past, she gave Chen Sheng a resentful look.
This made Chen Sheng unable to help but remain silent.
Xuanzang chose to let the east, west, north and south wind go, obviously because he had punched to death a high-ranking official who was involved in disaster relief, which caused such an impact that Chen Sheng had to leave early.
After so many years, Xuanzang has always remembered this incident.
Therefore, Xuanzang subconsciously chose to obey the general trend of the times that affected him.
His pain made Chen Sheng feel that it was partly his own fault.
Moreover, the passing away of Master Jie Xian was partly influenced by him. Although Master Jiexian was willing to bear the pain, even though the time of Master Jiexian's death was no different from the original history.
But Chen Sheng still couldn't help but remain silent.
But thankfully there was something he could do.
"Xuan Zang touched a trace of the eighth consciousness, and the eighth consciousness in the spiritual cultivation system corresponds to the fourth-level true god realm in the spiritual power cultivation system."
"That is to say, before he passed away, he was in the demigod state and realized a trace of immortality."
Chen Sheng said slowly.
"Master, what do you mean?!"
Bai Jingjing's breath shortened upon hearing this.
"He's not dead yet, I can save him!"
