Red Mansion: Holding Space and Marrying Like the Sea

Ruins lay everywhere, and acrid acid rain drifted from the sky, sending wisps of white smoke billowing onto the ground. Outside a base, a slender, attractive girl was locked in a desperate struggle with the zombie king. This girl was an orphan, chosen by a special Chinese organization after turning three years old in an orphanage. She was codenamed Xifeng.

Amidst the chaos, Xifeng heard someone calling her "Sister Feng'er." She arrived at a doorway and looked up. The plaque on the door read "Yaochi." The call became even clearer, and Xifeng walked in without hesitation. She wandered through a sea of flowers, savoring their fragrance, listening to the music of the immortals, and touring the Moon Palace, admiring the magnificent temples and towers, verdant shrubs, lush lawns, and diverse trees. The entire Yaochi was a dazzling world, enchanting.

When Xifeng was intoxicated by the beautiful scenery, a soft female voice brought her back to reality. She saw this woman with "eyebrows like emerald feathers, skin like goat fat. Her face is decorated with peach petals, and her hair is piled with golden phoenix silk. Her eyes are full of charm, and her figure is as slender and charming as spring bamboo shoots. Her red gauze is slanted and colorful, and her hairpins are high and shining with pearls and jade. They say that Zhaojun's beauty is indeed better than Xi Shi's. Her willow waist is slightly bent, and the golden pendant is ringing. Her lotus steps move her jade limbs lightly."

"Sister Feng'er, you have suffered. You were deceived by Jinghuan in the illusory world of Taixu and were recorded in the official volume of the Department of Misfortune. You suffered from love and hate, and finally you were thrown into a mass grave in a snowy day with a roll of broken mats, and were eaten by wild dogs." After saying that, the fairy raised her hand and touched Xifeng's forehead, and Xifeng remembered her past and present lives.

She was originally the younger sister of the Queen Mother of the Jade Pool, and she and Wenqu Xingjun were in love, waiting for Xifeng to achieve Daluo. Suddenly, upon hearing Jinghuan mention the dangers of Xingjun's descent to the mortal realm, she, as the saying goes, "concern leads to confusion," and without thinking, descended from the Guanchou Sea in the Taixu Illusionary Realm. Now that she realizes, the resentment within the Guanchou Sea is the very foundation of Jinghuan's cultivation. The so-called Misfortune Department is the fate of the fairies deceived by Jinghuan and sent to the lower world, leaving them suffering and filled with resentment, unable to return to their places, and thus causing the Guanchou Sea to remain filled with resentment.

Recalling the past, Xifeng remembered the verdict in the Dream of the Red Chamber:

“All birds come from the end of the world, and they all know how to cherish the talents of this life.

One obeys, two orders, three become wooden, crying towards Jinling, things become even more sad."

Suddenly, she was filled with anger and said: Sister, please don't interfere in this matter, I want to take revenge on my own. The Queen Mother of Yaochi said: Sister, you are suffering this time because I didn't take good care of you, and your tribulation has not been completed and your cultivation has not recovered. The Queen Mother looked at the stubbornness in Xifeng's eyes and said compromisingly, "It's up to you." Then she said that when you go down to the mortal world to experience tribulation, you will forget the things in the fairy world, but the memory of the Red Mansion will be kept for you. Then she took out a jade bracelet and handed it to Xifeng and said, "This is a portable space that will go with you through the tribulation. There are some things prepared for you in it." Xifeng said coquettishly: "Thank you, sister. I knew that you loved me the most." The Queen Mother helplessly tapped Xifeng's forehead and said helplessly, "I really can't do anything with you. Go early and come back early."

Xifeng then followed the Queen Mother into the palace. She said, "Sister, go and refine the jade bracelet's spatial energy and bind it to your spirit. I'll be your guardian outside." Xifeng then sat cross-legged on the jade couch, practicing her technique for 81 days, ultimately refining the bracelet. She then opened her bright, autumn-colored eyes, her lips parted as she spoke, "Sister, I've succeeded. I'm going to the lower realms." "Wait for me in heaven. I'll be back soon," Xifeng reluctantly said. She turned and reached the Samsara Platform, then soared towards the lower realms.
