I heard that the emperor had a cub

As if to prove his words, Chang Qing quickly dragged Xuan Zhao out of the house.

"Do you still remember the stone tablet here?" Changqing pointed to a low stone tablet on the edge of the courtyard. Said: "The engraved on it is the name of the phoenix that we failed to save 20 years ago. You were very depressed at that time. We set up a monument for him here. The words on the monument are written by you. So far you I still stare at this stele in a daze from time to time."

Xuan Zhao didn't say anything, but felt something was wrong in his heart because of these words.

The Phoenix that couldn't be rescued?

At this time, Changqing took Xuanzhao and went to the outside of the courtyard. There was a fairly spacious tea garden not far outside, and it was full of blue colors.

Changqing continued: "Look, you like to drink tea, and it is late spring tea from Linggu. Later, Linggu was destroyed, so I found the remaining seeds for you and planted this tea garden for you." , you said you liked it when you saw it."

After saying this, they came to a gazebo in the tea garden, led Xuanzhao to sit on the bench, Changqing stared at Xuanzhao, and continued: "We often drink tea here and talk about many things. , you like to play chess, but I was not good at chess before, and it was only under your guidance that I was able to play chess with you gradually."

Chang Qing looked directly at Xuan Zhao: "Could these be fake too?"

Xuan Zhao: "..."

He couldn't pick out any suspicious things about these memories of Changqing. Changqing seemed to have really experienced everything, and it was really vivid in his memory.

Can the illusion of the maze in the ancient fairy world be so real?

Xuan Zhao always has a feeling of disobedience, as if he has been ignoring something, but he can't explain it simply.

After that, Changqing said a lot to Xuanzhao eagerly, and at the same time took him around the courtyard, in order to prove to Xuanzhao that all his memories are true, and everything in front of him is also true Yes, those "facts" that Xuan Zhao thought were false illusions.

In Changqing's reaction, Xuan Zhao finally understood that no matter what he said, Changqing would never believe him.

He only believed in what he believed to be true.

Of course, Chang Qing always insisted that Xuan Zhao was the Xuan Zhao in his memory, not anyone else.

Xuan Zhao couldn't make it clear, and in the end he had no choice but to follow his wishes.

But of course he did not give up breaking the illusion. For the next few days, Xuan Zhao was forced to pretend to be the person Chang Qing thought he was, and he began to use various methods to try to leave this illusion.

Like Chang Qing, no matter how true Chang Qing said, he always believed that his past tens of thousands of years and his own memories were real.

He could prove it if he could find a way out of the illusion.

Before entering the labyrinth, Changqing once carved runes on everyone's palms, and said that the runes can guide them to find each other and confirm each other's authenticity.

At the same time, he also said that as long as he exerts enough immortal power to resonate with it, he can forcibly escape from the illusion.

But it is a pity that after Xuan Zhao tried it, he found that the rune had lost its function.

His powers and runes didn't resonate, and he couldn't leave the illusion.

So if you want to leave, I'm afraid you have to find another way.

Xuanzhao initially searched for a way to break through the illusion in the surrounding environment. He checked all the landscapes inside the courtyard, except for the layout and decoration in the room, which were jointly designed according to the preferences of Xuanzhao and Changqing. anything special.

He then expanded the scope and began to observe the situation around the courtyard.

The courtyard is on a certain fairy island in the ancient fairyland. The fairy island is not small, floating above the sky. From the courtyard, besides the tea garden, there are bamboo forests, lotus ponds, gardens and other landscapes. It is a very beautiful place. And it is a well-organized Xiandao.

There is nothing special about it, except that it seems too isolated from the world, too reclusive.

The investigation of Xiandao and the courtyard was fruitless, so Xuan Zhao focused on Yunping and Wenyu.

Since there is no way to break the formation for the time being, we can only wake them up first, gather everyone's strength and then think of another way.

Xuan Zhao tried to transfer the immortal power to Yunping and the others to help them increase their cultivation and transform them into human forms.

But this method doesn't work. Living creatures need more than ten thousand years of cultivation to transform into form. Yunping and the others are no different from ordinary animals now, they don't even have the slightest fairy power. It's just mud flowing into the sea, not enough at all.

If you want to boost their strength quickly, if you go too far, it will only lead to backlash.

In the end, Yunping and the others could only look at Xuanzhao helplessly, and couldn't even say a word. After Yunping turned into a little snake, he was much more well-behaved than usual. Nervously huddling in Xuan Zhao's arms, he gently licked Xuan Zhao's fingertips with his pink tongue.

Snow Leopard Wenyu is more troublesome, he is too big, he can't squeeze into Xuan Zhao's arms like Yun Ping, so he can only be aggrieved and anxious around Xuan Zhao, trying to use his mouth full of saliva. His big tongue went to lick Xuan Zhao's cheek.

Of course, this kind of thing was stopped by Changqing.

Because he couldn't leave the illusion, Xuanzhao inexplicably survived in this fairy island courtyard.

Their daily life is quite simple, just drinking tea, playing chess and chatting, taking care of the flowers and trees in the garden, taking care of the pets living in the yard, and of course comforting Changqing from time to time, and accompany him to relieve his boredom.

For Xuan Zhao, Changqing in the illusion is like a completely different person.

In the past, Changqing was mysterious and unpredictable, everything would always be hidden in his heart, and he would always maintain a slight sense of distance when talking with people, even with Xuanzhao, there was always something to hide.Many times when Xuan Zhao looks at him, he can clearly feel the weight of the years on him. No matter how relaxed and casual he is, something has already taken root in him with the years.

But the current Changqing is different. Even though more than 20 years have passed, the Changqing in the illusion is happy and sincere. Will deliberately say coquettish words to Xuan Zhao.

This was a scene that Xuan Zhao never dared to imagine in the past.

Why is Changqing in the illusion like this?

Xuanzhao thought about it carefully, maybe it was because he was accompanied by people for more than 20 years, maybe this is actually the original appearance of Changqing.

In this way, for Changqing, is the current result the best result of the development of things 20 years ago?At least in Xuanzhao's eyes, Changqing is much happier than before.

In the follow-up relationship, Xuan Zhao was convinced of his own judgment.

Changqing enjoys the current life very much, and he can always find new fun in the unchanging life, so that Xuanzhao's life will not be boring every day.

This is a person who is quite suitable for companionship. In fact, Xuan Zhao knew it from a long time ago, but their relationship was friends at that time, but now they are "couples".

Xuan Zhao has never been able to really put himself into the role of Changqing's lover. In his opinion, what Changqing likes is just the Xuan Zhao in the past, not him, so he has no way to occupy the love that should be someone else with peace of mind. own something.

He has always been close to Changqing, showing a vague sense of distance. Changqing probably noticed it, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

On the sixth day of living in the illusion, Xuanzhao has completely become familiar with the environment here, and also has an understanding of the current Changqing.

It's just that he hasn't been able to find a way out of the illusion, which makes him feel more and more that things are much more serious than he imagined.

Since he couldn't find a way on Xiandao, he could only try to look outside. At the same time, he also wanted to know the extent of the illusion.

Xuan Zhao asked Changqing to go out and have a look.

When he heard this, Chang Qing was sipping the tea in his cup. He raised his head when he heard the words, and smiled in surprise but pleasantly: "You want to go out to relax? Really?"

As if he had heard some exciting news, he quickly put down his teacup and stood up: "I'll go and get ready now. After so many years, you stay here all day and don't want to go anywhere. Usually, you just want to relax." I brought it up, and now that you are finally willing to go out on your own, I have to prepare well..."

He whispered like this alone, as if for him, Xuan Zhao's trip was the most important event in the world.

However, Xuan Zhao heard something was wrong. How much did the merger of the Three Realms change the world? Why did that Xuan Zhao refuse to go out?

And judging from the clues revealed by Changqing before, the world in this illusion seems to be worse than he imagined.

Changqing didn't notice Xuanzhao's contemplation, but was busy preparing. He also asked for Xuanzhao's opinion: "By the way, where do you want to go when you go out? Do you want to fly there as soon as possible by using immortal skills, or drive in a carriage? Can you enjoy the scenery along the way?"

Xuan Zhao was not in the mood to appreciate the scenery: "Just go as soon as possible."

He had already thought about the destination. He found Yun Ping and Wen Yu in the illusion. Although the situation of these two people is unclear now, he still decided to find the rest of them. .

Among the others, Zhaoli's true identity is unknown, it will be more difficult to determine his location, the rest are You Hao and Qi Xia.

One of these two people was originally from a dragon, and the other was from a phoenix clan. Xuanzhao naturally knew where they would be.

So Xuan Zhao said, "Let's go to the East China Sea."

He decides to find You Hao first, and then go to Qiuwu Mountain where the Feng Clan is located to find Qi Xia.

Hearing that Xuanzhao had decided on the destination, Chang Qing was slightly taken aback, and then asked: "Are you going there? The scenery may not be very good there recently, and I'm worried that your mood will be even worse after going there, otherwise we'd better go ..."

Chang Qing tried to persuade Xuan Zhao to change places, but Xuan Zhao shook his head to show that he would not change his mind.

Although Changqing hesitated to speak, he finally agreed to Xuanzhao. After the two packed up, Tengyun headed towards the East China Sea.

Although he was on the cloud all the way, Xuan Zhao could still clearly see that the scene below was as desolate as the last time he saw it, and there were no gods coming and going.

But Xuan Zhao knows that You Hao will definitely be in the East China Sea. Even if You Hao is not there, the dragons have lived in the East China Sea for 10 years, and it will not change. No matter how You Hao changes, as long as he asks the dragons, he will naturally find You Hao. .

Xuan Zhao planned this way, but when he arrived at the East China Sea and saw the scene clearly, he realized that everything he thought was wrong.

Standing on the edge of the East China Sea, Xuan Zhao felt that the blood in his body was gradually becoming cold.

There is no sea here at all.

There is only a ravine full of dragon bones.
