Chapter 231 Have we met somewhere?
Chapter 231 Have we met somewhere?
Shen Wen looked at the conversation and expressions of Tong Ming and Chunyu Liwei, and wondered if he could be one of the three fathers?
After guessing like this, he blurted out, "You are not which dad? Second dad? Or first dad... um... cough cough."
What did he say? It made me feel like I was in desperate need of a father.
Chunyu Li ignored him and taught Tong Ming a lesson: "Don't think about it. It's all my fault that I was busy practicing in Jingze Palace. That's why you are so bold. Are you not going to listen to a word I say?"
Tong Ming was not convinced and said sarcastically, "How dare I? You have your reasons anyway. You always ignore our affairs. If you hadn't been in seclusion practicing and couldn't be awakened no matter how hard we tried, we wouldn't have become so miserable! Everyone is tired of being controlled by others like this."
Seeing him like this, Chunyu Lixun finally softened his heart and said, "Go back to your Taibai Palace and reflect on your mistakes."
Tong Ming didn't dare to disobey and disappeared in a flash.
The word "flash" means "disappear" in an instant, like lightning!
Shen Wen’s eyes almost popped out of his head!
Only then did Chunyu Li looked at Shen Wen. He bowed to Shen Wen, which made Shen Wen embarrassed and said, "Oh! Isn't this inappropriate? I heard that you are all gods."
Chunyu Li said: "What's wrong with being a god? We just breathe a few more years of air than you do. We are all useless gods."
Shen Wen said: "You are so polite."
Shen Wen pointed at the place where Tong Ming disappeared and said in disbelief: "He...just...disappeared like that?"
Chunyu Li nodded.
Shen Wen had a bold idea. He said, "Is it true? Why don't you show me a spell that's a little more powerful than his?"
Chunyu Li smiled, his eyes curved, and they both stretched their right hands in front of his eyes and said, "Then don't blink."
After saying that, Shen Wen felt the space around him change, which made his eyes sore and he blinked. In the blink of an eye, when he looked at the surrounding environment again, he and Chunyu Li were already in front of another palace.
Shen Wen looked up at the palace which was even more majestic and imposing than the previous one. On the plaque were written three large characters "Zhanchan Palace".
I don't know how the palace maids inside knew that there was someone visiting outside the door, but they opened the palace door at this time, and Niao Niao came out and bowed to Chunyu Liqi and Shen Wen.
Chunyu Li said to Shen Wen, "Let's go in."
Compared to Tong Ming, Shen Wen trusted Chunyu Lixun more. Shen Wen followed him in and asked, "Have we met somewhere before?"
Chunyu Lixun said with a smile: "Of course I have seen it, in the Yixiang Tower in the Imperial City."
Shen Wen shook his head and said, "Don't play dumb. I'm talking about before that, or in another time and space."
Chunyu Lixun still smiled and nodded, "If you think about it more, you will remember it."
Shen Wen looked at Chunyu Lixun for a long time and said, "You are the guardian. I suddenly realized that I, a non-religious materialist, have long been a believer."
Chunyu Li said: "Now you should believe it, there really are gods in this world. You are from a certain place, and you have a priesthood corresponding to that place. I am just an ordinary priest."
Really...
He was so anxious that he even gasped for breath.
Shen Wen looked at him with his eyes slanted and his mouth pouted.
While they were talking, they arrived at the palace.
It’s so magnificent!
Shen Wen suddenly thought of the sentence: This scene can only be seen in heaven, and it is rare to see it in the world.
Isn't it talking about the scenery of the palace in front of us?
What he thought of was by no means an exaggeration, and was even more so.
You have to know that Shen Wen has lived two lives, and she has been to countless top luxurious places in the world, but none of them can compare to the luxury of this palace. It is simply...
It is just like the Moon Palace in the sky, luxurious, dazzling, and crystal clear, but lacks the vitality of the human world. When you are in it, you just feel lonely and deserted.
Shen Wen took two steps and hugged his shoulders unconsciously.
Chunyu Li asked: "What?"
Shen Wen said: "Nothing, I just feel that the place where you immortals live is really not a place where we mortals feel comfortable. How can it be popular at all?"
Chunyu Li shook his head and looked at him, saying, "Nonsense, this is the imperial palace, how can it be the fairyland? With your body, it is impossible for you to go to the fairyland."
Shen Wen was half-believing and half-doubting. He said, "Didn't you say you would show me your skills? With that magic, wouldn't you be able to take me back to your home?"
Chunyu Li shook his head and said, "Haha!"
Shen Wen immediately frowned.
This bastard actually laughed at him.
Shen Wen followed Chunyu Liqi to the main hall of Zhanchan Palace. The two sat opposite each other and a palace maid served them tea.
Shen Wen said: "By the way, are all the palaces in this imperial palace so... so crystal clear? I just saw the gemstones and crystals used for decoration here, and they are all real. This is too exaggerated, even rarer than the palace inlaid with gold. This is unreasonable! Isn't it said that the royal family likes magnificent things?
Chunyu Li seemed to have just realized his point. He also looked around the palace and nodded, saying, "It is different from other places."
Then he looked at Shen Wen and said, "You really don't look right here."
Then he just waved his sleeves and completely changed Shen Wen's outfit.
Shen Wen suddenly felt cool and looked down at himself.
She actually changed from men's robes to women's colorful feathered clothes, and the clothes were made of chiffon wings that were worth thousands or even tens of thousands of gold.
Shen Wen was wearing a suit that was as valuable as a thousand-dollar fur coat. He was so stiff that he didn't know where to put himself. He said to Chunyu Li, "This! This is not good. Such fine clothes, you have to let me take a bath and wash before putting them on. Won't this dirty the fine material?"
Chunyu Lixun smiled faintly and said, "In that case, let's do as you wish."
He gently waved to the maid beside him, and the maid immediately came over and said, "My dear, please follow me to bathe and change clothes."
Shen Wen turned around and looked at Chunyu Lixun. Chunyu Lixun gave him a reassuring look and said, "You can go with peace of mind."
Shen Wen had thousands of questions and concerns in his mind, but when he thought about the magic tricks that this man had just used, he suddenly felt like a lamb to be slaughtered with his hands and feet tied. Fortunately, Chunyu Liqian was a kind-hearted man, so he could only put those thoughts aside for now and talk about it later.
He followed the palace maid to the back hall to bathe and change clothes.
At this time, a female palace maid walked in from the entrance of the hall. She walked to Chunyu Lixun, bowed and said, "Grandfather, it is not appropriate for the Seventeenth Young Master to stay in the palace. Why didn't you send him away from the palace, but instead followed Third Father's wishes and kept him in the palace?"
Shen Wen also knew this palace maid. If he were here, he would definitely know her. She was the little girl Ajiu who had a faint fox tail and whom he met at the Duke Ji's Mansion.
Chunyu Lixun did not turn around and asked her, "Is the ancestor back? What did he say about this?"
Ah Jiu shook his head in disappointment and said, "He didn't come back. We looked in many places and tried many methods, but we still couldn't find the ancestor."
A soul from another world traveled to this era out of thin air, and coincidentally entered his body and became this person. People of his and the ancestor's level of Taoism would never believe that this was just a coincidence. However, he was in the state of transformation and could travel through time and space freely. He did not understand this opportunity that came in at an angle. All he and the ancestor could see was that it was a divine power, but they had no idea who the owner of that divine power was.
Since the ancestor did not get entangled with those old friends, he went to search for the location of the Lord of Divine Power in this space and time.
Chunyu Liqie put his hands behind his back, looking extremely calm and composed. He rubbed his fingers together unconsciously as he thought about something. He turned around and said, "Your Third Father is right. The little emperor has been troubled by the curse for many years. After all, he is the ruler of a country. If there is a way to remove the curse, it is only natural for people like us who are priests to help him."
Ah Jiu said: "But doesn't this just fulfill the old emperor's wish? The old emperor has gone crazy. He has held our family hostage. I don't know how many things he will do for us in the future."
Chunyu Li said: "The old emperor is not scary. You don't know what's going on here. It's not just the old emperor stirring up trouble. Behind him is a demon god who has become a demon. Your ancestor and I, who are ten or a hundred times more powerful, can't catch up with him. He is really difficult and scary."
It was the first time that Ah Jiu heard her elder uncle reveal the secret in front of her. She was so frightened that she opened her mouth wide and said in surprise, "Oh, what should I do?"
Chunyu Li was very upset when he thought of this, and waved his hand to signal Ajiu to go down.
Chunyu Liqian thought it was time to meet the little emperor. He looked around the main hall of Zhanchan Palace, added another layer of barrier protection to the entire Zhanchan Palace, and then quietly retreated.
Shen Wen, who was still bathing and changing clothes in the back hall, didn't know yet. He was also wondering in his heart, is it a demon or a god who lives in the West Palace? Although Chunyu Lixun seemed harmless, Shen Wen didn't trust him much. Shen Wen didn't dare to imagine the realm of their Xuanmen. The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became. The only one who could find a way to solve his doubts was Ji Xun, who had the ability to call him through time.
Shen Wen soaked in the hot water, closed his eyes and concentrated, praying in his heart that he could sense the trace of the great god Ji Xun this time.
However, he was not able to get what he wanted. He reached the state where he had been soaking in the water for half an hour. The hot water had turned cold and his mortal body had fallen into a deep sleep.
Fortunately, the palace maid who served her personally was very dedicated. She called two sisters over, gently lifted Shen Wen out of the bathtub, put her comfortably to the bed, and let her fall asleep.
