Chapter 1659: Dreamland
The meaning of Duanmu Zhizun's words is obvious, that is, if Jing Yan is willing to become his follower, he can protect Jing Yan's safety, even if he offends the high-ranking Supreme King Jinhai.
Followers are not servants, but they need to take a vow. Once you become a follower, it is almost never possible to disobey, let alone betray.
In fact, among the powerful beings here, several of them have the same thoughts as Supreme Duanmu. If a potential practitioner like Jing Yan can become their follower, it is worth the price they have to pay.
"Fellow Taoist female anvil seems to be very optimistic about Jing Yan, right? Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to enter the path of reincarnation. After all, there are only a few places in 100 million years." Supreme Qianyi looked at the female Anvil Empress.
Hearing Supreme Master Qianyi's words, Empress Nuzhen smiled slightly.
"Jing Yan is not my follower, if you can get him to follow you, you can try." Nuzheng Niang said with a smile.
From the first time Nuzhen saw Jing Yan, she was almost certain that Jing Yan would not become a follower of any living being, even if the other party was a high-ranking supreme being.
The other powerful beings also smiled.
...
Jing Yan entered the black and white two-color light.
In front of him, there was a flash of black and white, this door was above him, and he could walk up it through the stairs like piano keys.
At this moment, Jing Yan could no longer see the other three beings who entered the path of reincarnation with him.
Jing Yan didn't waste any time, he raised his feet and walked up.
On the black and white ladder, there was no force to hinder Jing Yan, and he came to the front of the black and white door smoothly. He paused slightly and walked in.
When Jing Yan entered the door, he froze for a moment.
Because, the scene behind the Black and White Gate is completely different from what he imagined.
This is a very ordinary world.
"Little master!"
A crisp voice pulled Jing Yan back from his trance, and he saw a beautiful girl standing in front of him, staring at him with a pair of aura-like eyes.
The young master she was talking about was none other than herself.
at the same time,
A flood of memories came flooding back. Jing Yan discovered that he had turned into a young man named Ziyi, and his identity was the youngest son of a city lord in this world. He has a brother and a sister. His city lord father was a majestic middle-aged man, and his mother was a kind and beautiful woman.
And the girl standing in front of him is his maid, taking care of his life.
He is seventeen years old, and in the seventeen years since his birth, he has lived in this mansion almost completely, and he has never even left this city that belongs to his father.
In his memory, the world he knew was a very ordinary world. In this world, there are no powerful practitioners. Everyone is very ordinary. Even if there are some stronger people, they can't fight ten against one.
In just one breath, Jing Yan completely integrated into his new identity, he even forgot everything about his previous life, including Nuzhen's mansion and the Dao of Reincarnation.
It seemed that he had completely turned into this seventeen-year-old boy named Ziyi.
"Master, it's time to go to school to study." The girl said to Jing Yan in a gentle voice.
Jing Yan nodded, stood up naturally, left the room, and walked towards the school of the City Lord's Mansion. His knowledge is very good, and his father, the lord of the city, placed high expectations on him, hoping that he would be a civil servant by the emperor's side in the future.
The city where Ziyi lives belongs to a country called Lu. The ruler of the country is honored as the emperor. Ziyi's father, the lord of the city, was also a courtier of the emperor. He was a general and guarded the city for the emperor. This is a frontier city. On the other side of the city is another country.
When Ziyi arrived at the school, the teacher with a long beard was already waiting there. In the school, he is the only student. Sir, he is only responsible for teaching one of his students to read.
Ziyi studied very seriously. After two hours, the sky gradually darkened, and today's study ended. Maid, follow behind Ziyi.
"Master, the master asked you to have dinner with him." The maid said to Ziyi.
Ziyi changed the direction of returning to his residence and walked towards the inner courtyard of the city lord's father.
The father of the city lord tested Ziyi's knowledge at dinner. After the exam, although the city lord's father was still majestic and did not smile, it could be seen from his eyes that he was quite satisfied with the young son's knowledge.
Ordinary life, day by day.
Finally one day, the war suddenly broke out. The state of Lu, which is the state of Ziyi, had a war with its neighbors. The city guarded by Ziyi's father bears the brunt. Ziyi's father, the city lord, needs to lead the army to fight against the troops of neighboring countries.
Even Ziyi's older brother and older sister had to wear battle armor and charge forward.
After years of stubborn resistance, the city was breached. The army of the neighboring country rushed into the city, and many innocent people died. Ziyi fled with his mother, avoiding the pursuit of the army of neighboring countries. Ziyi's father died in the war, and his brother and sister are also missing.
They kept fleeing in the direction of the imperial city, and there were fewer and fewer people around them. In the end, even the maid who had been serving Ziyi all the time died of the disease.
Ziyi followed his mother and finally fled to the imperial city. The emperor, the imperial conquest, and the final battle with neighboring countries. If defeated, the country will be completely destroyed. Fortunately, the Lu State won this battle with difficulty, and the Lu State defeated the invasion of neighboring countries.
Ziyi's life has stabilized again, but they can't go back to the city that belongs to them.
A few years later, Ziyi's mother also died of illness because of missing his father, leaving Ziyi alone. Ziyi changed his name and took the exam called "imperial examination" in the state of Lu again. Relying on his own knowledge, Ziyi came to the fore and entered the emperor's court step by step.
The emperor admired Ziyi's Xu Wen very much, and betrothed the princess to Ziyi.
Marry a wife and have children.
Decades later, Ziyi died of old age in front of one of his sons and a daughter.
...
Jing Yan, who was standing inside the Black and White Gate of the Way of Reincarnation, trembled slightly.
"A dream?" Jing Yan looked around, everything would return to normal.
Jing Yan exhaled lightly.
"An extremely real dream. In the dream, I completely forgot about myself. It seemed that I really spent my whole life in that illusory world."
"Birth, old age, sickness and death..."
Jing Yan's mood at this moment is extremely calm, but it seems that he is still immersed in that extremely real dream.
"This seems to be the profound meaning of life! This dream is very simple, but it makes people unable to extricate themselves." In Jing Yan's deep eyes, scenes in the dream flashed again.
