217 Two Paths (1/2)
”There's no need to go.”
The scene of the surrounding Louying mountain began to shatter and then twisted and disappeared. A celestial woman came from the sky with petals scattering around. The smell of sandalwood filled the air and a magnificent light radiated all around, it seemed as if all the light in the world was shining here.
I held onto Bi Qing Shen Jun tightly and looked around the blank space that was on the verge of nothingness. The beautiful woman dropped from the sky, her head was full of greenish-blue pearls, her appearance was benevolent, and also her body had a majestic aura and she was standing on a five-colored cloud, surrounded by many beautiful fairies.
”My respects to Queen mother of the West.” I was just about to pull Bi Qing Shen Jun to ask about this person but didn't expect him to kneel down and he also kept tugging at my skirt, so I also quickly followed and bowed down. I guessed that this must be a big person, and wondered what they came to find us for.
”Do you like viewing things through rose-tinted spectacles?” The Queen mother asked with a smile.
I glanced at Bi Qing Shen Jun's face and didn't know how to respond.
”The existence of this cat demon was originally a mistake, if you wish to return past and start afresh, I can let bygones be bygones.” The Queen mother continued.
I opened my mouth and quickly asked, ”Does starting afresh mean that when we return to the past, we won't know each other and everything can be turned around?”
”If you go back to the past, Heaven will erase both of your memories and from then on, never to meet again.” The Queen mother's tone was very kind and gentle. ”This way you can forget the unhappy past and start afresh. You don't need to suffer hardship anymore and also don't have to watch each other's suffering.”
I hurriedly asked, ”If we start afresh, there wouldn't be Xiao Mao and Yin Zi also wouldn't have a wife, all these experiences and emotions would all become nothing? Then I will go back to being an insensible cat and Bi Qing Shen Jun will go back to being a snake who doesn't understand emotions?”
After a moment's hesitation, The Queen mother said, ”Yes, nothing will happen. But wouldn't such a life be better for you both? You both have high spiritual bones, especially Bi Qing Shen Jun. You should be able to progress forward. Although the Jade emperor was furious about your behavior, Heaven will not want to waste such talent like this.”
”What about Bi Qing? Hua Miao Miao in the future had Bi Qing!” I hurriedly said.
”If you change the past, then in the future Bi QIng will be an ordinary person. His soul will no longer be Bi Qing Shen Jun's.”
”I am not willing. It's also nice being a pet doctor.” Bi Qing Shen Jun answered resolutely and decisively.
The Queen mother was hesitant, ”You should think it over properly. This may be your last chance. Moreover, your son is dead. There is nothing to be worried about.”
”I am also not willing.” I shook my head and replied.
”Why?” The Queen mother frowned confused.
”Even if I can go back and start over...I don't want to erase the memories...” I carefully looked at Bi Qing Shen and saw him smile and nod, so I got the courage to continue, ”If we don't remember anything, then Xiao Mao would have really never existed. Also, although there are many bad memories, there are also a lot of very happy and important ones as well. No matter what, I don't want to relinquish them.”
”You both really cannot differentiate between good and bad.” The Queen mother was a little angry.
I lowered my ears and felt that this woman was terrified and hurried and shrunk to Bi Qing Shen Jun's side.
The Queen mother continued to persuade, ”If you both obstinately persist in going about things the wrong way, if you insist on continuing in the human world, the future is a dense fog. No one can see where it will go, also where and when you will you be born from reincarnation to reincarnation. In the next life, you may not necessarily meet and be together. If you go back to the past, your future prospects will be very bright. Bi Qing Shen Jun will continue to be the commander of the three armies and will turn into a Buddha, from then on, will attain a very high and lofty position. Hua Miao Miao, you will also continue to be the demon king on earth, because you are usually honest, it will not be easy to provoke enemies, will be able to live long and build a personal kingdom over a wide expanse.”
I looked at her persuading patiently and then turned to Bi Qing Shen Jun and carefully asked, ”Do you want to return to the past to be the commander of the three armies?”
Bi Qing Shen Jun just smiled and asked, ”Do you want to go back to be the demon king on earth?”
So the two shook their heads together and refused the Queen mother's kindness, ”Things we have chosen in the past, we do not regret them. Even if in the future it brings suffering, we would also be most willing.”
”Only if you abandon the memories, can you be happy.”
”We are not willing to abandon our memories.”
”You will forget each other in the next reincarnation.” The Queen mother finally advised.
