What Wu Wan didn't know was that when he met Jingwei in his dream, the blue bird that was sleeping on his chest also returned to its original shape.
When he woke up from his dream, when he opened his eyes, he could only see the back of Jingwei turning into a blue bird and flying away in a hurry, with her unique fragrance still lingering in his arms...
Ah this?
Wu Wan looked at Ming She, and without him having to say anything, Ming She immediately retreated and caught up to protect Jingwei secretly.
Then, Wu Wan forced himself to focus on the important things in front of him.
Beside him, the God of Sleep sat up and put away the golden pillow. His slightly fat face was very deceptive compared to the handsomeness shown in the dream.
The two brothers looked at each other and then fell into deep thought.
Wu Wang sorted out the dream he had experienced.
Although Brother Sleep was constantly reminding him, he couldn't help but pretend to be the real owner of this dream - an ordinary creature outside the sky.
That creature became a window that allowed Wu Wan and the God of Sleep to peek into the world controlled by the Zhulong God System outside the sky.
What the three of them, Wu Wan, Sleep God, and Jingwei saw, were actually the memories of that creature...
"what to do?"
The god of sleep asked beside him.
"I'm going to see my mother," Wu Wan stood up and was about to step forward, but stopped.
What should I say after seeing my mother?
Wu Wan fell into silence.
The surrounding clouds and fog became thicker.
The God of Sleep patted the grass beside him and said slowly: "Don't be impatient when things happen, and don't always think of the worst. Let's go through the information we have received and see what valuable things we can draw from it."
"Yeah," Wu Wan breathed out softly.
The matter concerned his mother, so he was inevitably a little confused.
The two sat down and began to review what they saw in this dream, connecting the intermittent memories of the extraterrestrial creature, and restoring it into a relatively complete 'half-life'.
This is also the first time Wu Wang has faced the chaotic will.
The extraterrestrial creature Wu Wan and the God of Sleep saw was a woman, half human and half spiritual.
The Eldar are the race closest to the gods in that world. They have different physical characteristics, and they are all similar to the gods they follow.
This woman's name is Wu Zhen.
…
What is a god?
This is a question that Wu Zhen has been hearing from priests since she was a baby.
Gods are the creators of the world and the controllers of the rules of the world. They are omniscient, omnipotent, perfect and without any flaws. Any of their actions has meanings that cannot be understood by living creatures.
Moreover, everything the gods do has meaning.
Ever since Wu Zhen could remember, she had to do three things every day.
Follow your family and pray to the great God of dark clouds;
Follow your family, roll in the mud, let yourself be stained with a layer of dirt, and then go to the fields to collect wild fruits;
And once a day, when night comes and the cold moon appears in the sky, we sit together and eat.
There are no parents in her family, they are all men and women of similar age.
The straw huts they slept in could not protect them from the wind, cold, rain and dew, but their bodies were still strong and they were not afraid of extreme weather conditions such as sandstorms, frosts, thunders, etc.
Every living being has its own destiny since birth.
They were the gods' possessions - this made Wu Zhen extremely at ease, because this way they would have enough food to survive the whole day and night.
Life is so monotonous, and their thousand-year lifespan gives them a lot of leisure time to gaze at the sky in ecstasy.
Wu Zhen likes to gaze at the stars.
There is a vague shadow in the starry sky, and the shadow winds across the sky, like a mountain suspended in the sky.
The priest said that it was the body of the supreme god;
But Wu Zhen is not qualified to pray to the supreme god, and all their people living in this valley are not qualified to pray to the sky.
They are the property of the Dark Cloud God, who is the follower of the Supreme God.
Ordinary life seemed to be the eternal tone. She quietly waited for herself to reach a certain age and for her body to change, from being short and thin to an adult with obvious feminine characteristics.
Then he begins to enter a sacred place every year, unites with a man who also wears a veil, and waits for new life.
This is a kind of inheritance.
But in more than half of Wu Zhen's life, she has entered the sacred place hundreds of times, but she still failed to give birth to a new life.
It's nothing, no one will blame her for this, and the family members around her are comforting and encouraging her.
Sacred rituals can only be performed in sacred places.
Sometimes, men and women in the family perform sacred rituals secretly.
If this happened, the night would become quite restless; listening to those movements, Wu Zhen felt like there was a fire burning in her heart, but she knew that this was not allowed.
This is illegal.
When such things are discovered by the priests, there will always be people wearing black masks falling from the sky.
This is the messenger of the gods, who will execute those who violate the ban on the spot, and say the words that Wu Zhen has heard dozens of times:
【Everything about you belongs to the great God of Dark Clouds!】
Then Wu Zhen would be glad that she withstood the turmoil of the flame and did not respond to the hot eyes of the man closest to her sleeping place.
In Wu Zhen's half life, she actually had two opportunities to leave the valley.
The first time was when her body changed. Her figure became taller and her skin transformed from dark to fair within a few months.
That time, she was taken to a cave by the priest, and she waited quietly in the cave for a while.
Wu Zhen didn't know what would happen, or what exactly happened. She just waited for a while and was told to return to her family.
The white-haired priest's face was full of disappointment, and he got angry at her when he returned, calling her useless and incompetent...
Wu Zhen was a little confused.
She obviously didn't do anything.
The second time I walked out of that valley was because of a disaster.
That time, the sun and moon appeared in the sky at the same time, and the strange light illuminated the huge divine body across the sky.
That is the supreme god.
Its divine body occupies half of the sky, and it seems to be extremely angry, constantly charging towards the depths of the sky.
Colorful grids appeared in the sky. These grids looked very thin in Wu Zhen, but they could block and push the supreme god back...
Then, fire began to rain from the sky, and hot magma flowed from the cracked earth.
Unfortunately, a stray fire fell in the valley where Wu Zhen lived. A rolling heat wave hit, and half of the family was engulfed in the flames and turned into piles of ashes.
They could only flee in panic, shouting in panic, and praying to the gods from time to time.
But their dark cloud god did not appear.
That time, Wu Zhen walked a long way, met new family members, and had a long journey. She worried about hunger every day, and had to endure some family members who took advantage of the chaos to perform sacred rituals.
What Wu Zhen remembers deeply is;
She walked to a hill and saw a thin film of light in front of her.
Through this layer of light film, she saw the rolling 'square' stone mountains and a famous and laughing figure, who were almost the same as her and her family.
No, it's different.
The figures in the light film are all wearing clothes.
…
"That should be a place beyond the sky."
On the grassy slope, shrouded in clouds and mist, Wu Wan whispered.
"The scene that the woman from the outer world saw in her memory may be the candle dragon attacking the seal of heaven and earth."
"Well," the God of Sleep said slowly, "that should be correct. This situation in Tianwai is actually very similar to the situation of the creatures of the third and fourth gods. That's why Zhulong and the others are still doing this."
"The Dark Cloud God is really not a thing."
Wu Wang cursed:
"Treat the spiritually enlightened creatures directly as livestock, train divine envoys and sacrifices, and let them control the creatures in their own fiefdoms.
The right to reproduce has been taken away, what is left for the living beings!”
The God of Sleep sighed softly and said in a low voice: "Compared with the situation outside the sky, the current order of the world is indeed pretty good."
"That's because the Heavenly Palace has someone to fear," Wu Wan's voice was a little high, but he quickly suppressed it.
He held his chin and thought for a while, then asked:
"Why, do I feel that the layer of light that Wu Zhen touched looks so like a human realm formation?"
The God of Sleep said slowly: "We can only see light and shadow in the dream, and we cannot feel how the thing works. After all, we are seeing the memory of Wu Zhen. Some magical arts can also have this effect, but it is difficult to draw this conclusion.
general judgment.”
"Hmm...can you feel that world in your dream?"
"You," the God of Sleep said with a bitter smile, "always find some tiring jobs for me, but I can give it a try."
Wu Wan raised his eyebrows. Just as he was about to praise the God of Sleep, he heard this old man complain again:
"Since I met you, brother, I have done more work than I did in the previous tens of thousands of years combined!"
"Those who are able work hard, and those who are able work hard."
Wu Wan's immortal consciousness swept over and saw Jingwei recovered from the blue bird on the bank of a river a hundred miles away. Lin Suqing was holding her shoulders and kept saying something beside her.
Jingwei was shy and timid, and nodded lightly.
Ah, help from the old aunt.
The salary must be raised, the salary must be raised, and all the offerings saved from Yang Wudi will be arranged for the old aunt!
Just now Jingwei also saw the whole dream of Wu Zhen, but for her, these important matters were left to Wu Wan to worry about because she had not yet recovered from the scene of recognizing each other in the dream.
Wu Wan looked at the God of Sleep and asked: "Is the current situation outside the sky controlled by the innate God painting the earth?"
"It seems so," said the God of Sleep, "The Dark Cloud God's territory is not very big, and he doesn't even dare to protect his followers. He should be a small broken god."
"The place protected by the light film looks quite peaceful."
"Not all innate gods are murderous and cruel people."
Sleep God smiled and said:
"The innate gods who followed Zhulong and were expelled back then were judged half as good and half as bad according to the moral concepts of the human realm.
Well, the Water God and the Ice God are good gods, the former is kind-hearted, the latter, the latter... is decisive in killing and very happy to do things! Well, that's more or less the case."
Wu Wan almost laughed out loud.
But soon, he put his hands behind his back and fell into deep thought again.
If the Zhulong returns, what will happen to the world?
Emperor Kuang has been exaggerating the threat of Zhulong, calling Zhulong the "will of chaos", and once said that the seeds of chaos appeared in Zhulong's body.
In fact, it may not be completely credible.
From Wu Zhen's memory, we can see that Zhulong is still enforcing his order in the vast world outside the sky.
The eyes are the sun and the moon, which divide day and night.
And in a "difficult" environment like Wu Zhen, they also have the concept of years and years, which shows that there is a basic calendar spread outside the world.
Considered from this perspective, the Emperor of Heaven said that the return of the candle dragon will bring chaos, but in fact it is setting off a war between gods...
When order is destroyed, chaos naturally results.
Wu Wan looked in the direction of his tribe and murmured in a low voice: "Perhaps, we really can't let Zhulong return unless we have to."
"Do you have a plan?"
"What's the plan?"
Wu Wanglue asked with some confusion.
The God of Sleep smiled and said: "Should I let the candle dragon come back and kill it with my own hands, or should I help consolidate the order of the Heavenly Palace and find a development path for the human domain under the current order."
Wu Wan blinked and muttered: "Brother, look at the problem...are you usually so profound?"
"Hahaha!"
The God of Sleep laughed heartily and said again: "You must be thinking deeper than me."
"This really doesn't exist."
"You happen to be caught between the three major forces."
The God of Sleep twirled his fingers and counted carefully:
"You see, Tiangong is the maintainer of the current order. If Tiangong fails, the current order will be gone. Even if the Beiye Xiongbao tribe you miss most can be protected by your mother, the human realm will definitely suffer.
There is only one enemy in Zhulong's eyes, and that is Emperor Kuang.
There is no need to think about the alliance between Human Domain and Zhulong. After Di Kuang is destroyed, Human Domain will be the next to be destroyed.
You have also seen what happened to Wu Zhen... Whether it is the human realm, Beiye, or the hundreds of tribes in the wilderness, if they have fallen to that point, the world will be at least tens of millions of years back."
Wu Wan could not help but remain silent.
The god of sleep said again:
"I'm not telling you to seek refuge in Heaven, but I'm reminding you that you should still persuade your mother.
Your mother seems to be different from the ancient times. I think it's because she had children and her maternal nature began to overflow... Well, I mean, her gentle side was brought out.
This is the opportunity for the creatures of heaven and earth.
I actually dislike Emperor Kuang very much, but I hate Zhulong even more."
Wu Huan asked in return: "Then, is there a way to have both worlds that does not destroy the current order of heaven and earth, but also allows the rise of the domain to truly be on an equal footing with the palace of heaven?"
The god of sleep could not help but remain silent.
The two of them were thinking and thinking.
The God of Sleep sighed: "If there was such a way to achieve both ends, the wars at the end of the Age of Gods would have been avoided long ago."
"Letting the human realm and the heavenly palace live in peace is tantamount to fantasy. They are already mortal enemies."
Wu Wan looked to the south, as if he could already hear the thundering war drums and saw a figure gathering above the Renhuang Pavilion.
The war between the Heavenly Palace and the human realm is about to break out.
And no matter how Wu Wang deduces it, this battle is inevitable.
Soon, Wu Wan shook his head, suppressed these thoughts for the time being, and asked the God of Sleep: "Ignoring other things, let's go back to the original question. Is there really a path connecting Beiye with the outside world?"
"You have experienced dreams."
The God of Sleep spread his hands and said: "I can't make up this kind of dream. You can also make judgments based on your own path."
"I'm not doubting you, brother."
Wu Wan groaned a few times and took out the necklace given by his mother from the yin and yang ring.
He considered his words, connected with his mother, and asked in a somewhat tentative tone:
"Mom, is there any way we can contact grandpa?"
Cang Xue's reply contained a bit of a smile: "Why do you want to contact your grandpa all of a sudden?"
Wu Wang said: "Didn't my mother say before that there was a way to get in touch with Tianwai, but it was just a little slow..."
"Yes, mother's Ice Avenue is embedded between the seals of heaven and earth," Cang Xue said with a smile, "Through this avenue, I can occasionally get in touch with your grandpa, but the chance is very slim, and it takes a lot of divine power every time.
.”
Wu Wan couldn't help but blink.
Did his mother just tell him directly?
He felt a little guilty in his heart, and was hesitating whether to talk about his dream with the God of Sleep, when Cang Xue said again:
"Also, ask Yun Mengshen beside you to be more honest. He has already touched the Avenue of Ice several times.
If he offends again, I won't let him suffer."
Wu Wan silently glanced at Sleeping God.
I didn't know this, but suddenly I wanted to see my mother take action... The battle between the top avenues in the world will definitely be exciting.
Seriously, this can't happen.
The overall situation of living beings is naturally against the Heavenly Palace.
