In confusion, Li Nanke came to a strange place.

What comes into view is a wide avenue, lined with towering ancient trees. The leaves glow with a light yellow halo in the sun, and there is a bit of illusion in the reality.

At the end of the avenue is a majestic palace with a shining roof covered with glazed tiles.

This is...the royal palace?

Li Nanke didn't know why he came here. There seemed to be something pulling him in his body.

"You are not allowed to stay in the forbidden area of ​​the palace, leave quickly!"

The palace gate guard shouted angrily.

Seeing Li Nanke standing still, the guard looked angry and stepped forward to push him.

As a result, before his fingers even touched the opponent's body, the person in front of him disappeared out of thin air. The guard opened his mouth wide, thinking he had seen a ghost in broad daylight, and his face turned pale.

…

Inside Fengqi Palace.

As the eldest princess's wet nurse, Guan Lijuan coaxed the princess to sleep and then sat aside to rest as usual.

In a daze, Guan Lijuan, who was a little sleepy, felt a cool breeze blowing towards her.

She raised her head, looking confused.

I don't know when, I saw a vague figure standing in front of the bed, with a faint white stream of light lingering around it, like a banished immortal who came from nine days.

Guan Lijuan stared blankly.

He neither shouted in panic nor fainted, just like a child who suddenly saw a very novel object.

On the bed, the sleeping baby girl looked at the man.

Her crystal grape-like eyes were full of curiosity, and she stretched out her hand to touch, but she was unable to do anything because she had been paralyzed since childhood. Inexplicably, the baby girl shed tears.

Li Nanke gently held the baby girl in his arms and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you."

At this moment, a sudden change occurred!

A bloody lotus bloomed between the baby girl's eyebrows, and countless fine tentacles extended from the lotus, directly piercing into the 365 acupoints all over Li Nanke's body.

The white mist surrounding Li Nanke dispersed.

Revealed his true identity.

He turned out to be an old man with gray hair and a wrinkled face.

As the old Taoist priest and Beishan Yun said, in the long river of time, time goes backwards, and time also passes, but faster. Although it is only twenty years of going backwards, for Li Nanke, the old one moves faster than anyone else.

The wet nurse Guan Lijuan finally let out a scream.

Then he passed out.

At this time, several figures appeared in the hall.

The one in the middle is Bai Yaoquan.

He looked at the mysterious old man whose breath had become weak and had become a turtle in the urn, with a complicated expression. "Someone gave me a dream, saying that a certain person would try every means to sabotage my plan, and asked me to set a trap to catch you in advance. He also said

There were a lot of words, but I didn’t remember much after I woke up, and I also forgot your name.”

"My name is...Dugu."

Li Nanke thought for a while and said seriously.

With all his strength locked up, he did not panic or get angry, but looked tenderly at the baby girl in his arms who attacked him.

He could see that a red rain worm had been placed inside the baby girl's body.

This Gu worm completely controlled her.

"Dugu?"

Bai Yaoquan frowned and continued to ask, "Where are you from? Why do you want to destroy my plan? And why do you want to save my daughter?"

Li Nanke remained silent.

Or maybe he couldn't answer these questions.

After waiting for a long time, Bai Yaoquan, who understood that the question was meaningless, turned around and said to an old man in golden robes beside him: "Now, I will trouble you all."

The old man stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the blood pool purgatory formation is ready. Next, I, the monk from Guishan, will try my best to transfer the divine veins and Haotian divine circulation in this person's body to the eldest princess. When the time comes, with the blood

With the heavenly contract, Your Majesty can take it as your own. At that time, whether it is Red Rain or even if a new savior appears, Your Majesty will be able to secure the world, sit back and relax, and find the magic of immortality."

Bai Yaoquan nodded, turned and left.

Arriving outside the main hall and above the imperial city, Bai Yaoquan looked at the thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, the vastness of the sky and the earth, and said softly: "Since ancient times, most wise kings have ambitions and ambitions, but life is short. Peace for eternity is easy to say, but it is

It's just an extravagant praise in the history books. I don't know whether this decision is right or wrong, but it only hurts Yue'er and the people."

Huang Longtu behind him smiled and said: "Without bloodshed and death, there will be no peace. As for the princess..."

Huang Longtu hesitated to speak, and finally did not continue.

The Qintian Supervisor who was following the emperor said in a deep voice: "This time someone entrusted your Majesty with a dream. In my opinion, the most likely possibility is that your Majesty in the future will use some means to provide early warning."

"oh?"

Bai Yaoquan was stunned and thought deeply, "So, can the old man named Dugu come from the future?"

"70% possible."

"When the divine veins and Haotian divine circulation in his body move to Yue'er, kill him. There should be no problem."

Bai Yaoquan asked.

Jian Zheng shook his head, "I have just carefully observed this person using Haotian's fortune-telling technique, and I think this person cannot be killed."

Bai Yaoquan's face darkened, "Immortal?"

"That's not the case." Jian Zheng didn't know how to explain, so he simply said, "It's easy to die physically, but it's not easy to kill the soul. If you want to kill him completely to avoid future troubles, there is only one way, and that is to let him kill him.

.”

These seemingly absurd and awkward words did not make Bai Yaoquan confused. He immediately understood, "Let him in this world kill his future self."

"That's right." Jian Zheng nodded. "Two identical people and souls cannot appear in the same world. As long as they get close to each other, I can use the Heavenly Punishment Formation to kill them and let them all die!"

Huang Longtu frowned, "But the problem is, we don't know who this old man is, how can we find him in this world?"

Jian Zheng silently looked at the blue sky, lost in thought.

Bai Yaoquan suddenly smiled and said: "Then let him take the bait himself. Since this person can travel through time and go back in time, it means that he has been fighting against Hong Yu in the past and has good ability. Then I might as well leak some secrets to him and deliberately set up a trap in the world.

There are some half-true and half-false prophecies spread on the Internet, saying that there is an old man named 'Dugu' imprisoned in the palace, and as long as he gets him, he can control the red rain."

Jian Zheng and Huang Longtu looked at each other and nodded lightly.

This method is quite good.

As long as that person comes into contact with Hong Yu, he will definitely come to the palace to find old man Dugu. When the time comes, he will deliberately set up a trap for him to kill his future self.

…

Li Nanke, whose power was locked, did not make any resistance and was nailed to the bloody pillar by the monks from Ghost Mountain.

The eldest princess, who was still a baby girl, was lying on a stone platform.

The red liquid in the blood pool is boiling.

Li Nanke looked at all this and felt very familiar, as if he had experienced similar scenes.

His brain became hazy and hazy again.

The scenes are like memories covered by frosted glass, flickering like film, but it is still difficult to see clearly.

who I am?

He lowered his head and thought in despair.

I have been thinking about this for a long, long time...

One day, two days, one month, one year...

He was like a statue, a lifeless statue that was always nailed to a pillar, and the monks from Ghost Mountain were constantly draining the divine luck from Haotian.

The divine veins have long been taken away, leaving only Haotian's divine luck.

Li Nanke never knew that he had this thing on his body, even before his memory disappeared.

Not only did he not know, but neither the old Taoist priest nor Hong Yu knew.

Suddenly one day, Li Nanke remembered a surname. It was not his own, his wife's, a friend's or even his enemy's, but a very familiar but strange surname.

Looking at the eldest princess, who was already standing tall and graceful on the stone. Although she was still young, she saw a beautiful woman for the first time, Li Nanke spoke for the first time in these nine long years. He slowly said to the nine-year-old eldest princess on the stone, "You can go.

Yes, remember, my surname is Chen. Because...my father’s surname is Chen.”

Perhaps because he thought he was talking nonsense, Li Nanke showed a rare smile and said, "You are the first to know."

That day, the eldest princess, who had been paralyzed in bed, recovered her health.
To be continued...
