The villain is right beside me

“I didn’t expect that Dao Wen would save me in the end.”

Mu Qing was in a daze. There was still a little deviation between reality and dreams. Fortunately, he never forgot his original intention.

Somehow, he felt that his obsession to go home had dissipated a lot.

It was the reincarnation created in the secret realm that allowed him to fulfill his obsession, but the test of this level was to not indulge in the past and become unable to extricate himself from the reincarnation.

Mu Qing then discovered that he seemed unable to move, as if he was fixed deep in the earth.

At this moment, all his memories disappeared, as if they were wiped out and started all over again.

I heard from my friends around me that I am a sapling, sensing the changes around me and taking root in the soil.

And my mission is to grow into a towering tree.

The lifespan of a tree is very long. I constantly absorb the dew from nature, and my roots continue to penetrate deeper into the soil.

One day I discovered that there were other lives in the soil that were different from our trees. They were ants, earthworms, moles... They lived in holes in the ground and became friends with me.

I heard them say that there were animals out there that were bigger and more numerous than them, and that there were birds flying in the sky, soaring across the blue sky.

The world is so big, I want to see it.

The ant laughed and said: "You are just a tree. Once you leave the land, you can't survive and you can't go anywhere."

"really?"

"Yes."

I began to yearn for the outside world, but when my companions heard me, they all advised me not to have such fantasies.

Why can we trees only take root in the soil and not run like animals?

Spring goes and fall comes, in spring, I feel unusually warm, my hands, oh, it should be the branches covered with green buds.

In summer, I hear cicadas chirping and birds singing, and the dense leaves block out the sunlight.

In autumn, I feel cold, the branches and leaves turn yellow and dry, and it seems that I have lost interest in everything.

In winter, I am completely bald and look ugly?

Am I going to die?

"No." The companion said, "When next spring comes, you will still grow green leaves."

Why? Why are there spring, summer, autumn and winter, and why do I change with the seasons?

Ten years have passed, and I have become a thriving tree, with my roots growing deeper and deeper underground.

Can I still grow taller?

How high is the sky? How deep is the earth?

I want to try to continue growing taller until my branches can pass through the sky and reach the white clouds!

A sparrow landed on me.

It built a house here and wanted to live here.

I asked it, "What is the world outside like? Can you tell me?"

The sparrow described the world he saw along the way. After I heard it, although I envied it, I could not see it.

"It's okay. Maybe you'll continue to grow taller until you're taller than the mountains and rivers. Then you'll be able to see how vast the world is."

I felt so encouraged in my heart and wanted to continue growing!

……

How many years have passed? All my friends have withered and died, but I am still growing up. My waist is very thick now, and I don’t know how deep the roots of the tree are in the ground, as if the ground is always bottomless.

Many birds landed on my shoulders and praised me as a century-old tree.

It’s been a hundred years?

I have seen other trees die, seen the seasons change countless times, and seen countless birds and animals buried in the soil.

Time flies, I grow older, and now I am six hundred years old. My trunk is towering and more majestic than a mountain.

But the taller and stronger I grow, the deeper my roots go, and the more I yearn for the darkness of the earth.

I unconsciously developed thoughts and began to think about problems.

Why are there four seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter?

Why does time keep passing?

Why is the sky so high and the earth so deep?

Why am I just a tree!

I also want to be one of those lions that can run freely! I also want to spread my wings and fly in the sky like a wild goose!

Finally one day, a group of animals called "humans" came to me.

They approached me with something shiny silver in their hands. What were they going to do?

it hurts!

I couldn't scream, but it hurt so much!

I feel like my whole body is about to be torn apart!

Why? Why do they treat me like that! Did I do something wrong?

Ahhh! ! !

I fell down, but there were still so many whys in my mind.

Vaguely, I thought to myself, I want to be a "human".

……

Suddenly, I woke up from my sleep!

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

I looked at the beautiful woman beside me, my beloved concubine.

"I had a weird dream."

I dreamed that I turned into a tree and was chopped down by someone. It was really weird.

Early in the morning, I attended the morning court as usual, and looked at the ministers below, bowing their heads and shouting.

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

"When there is something going on, we will start, and when there is nothing going on, we will retreat."

I am the emperor of a country, and I have been working like this for ten years. Wait, what country am I the emperor of? What is the name of my country? Is it Jiang? Or Qin?

Who am I?

That dream was so real that it made me doubt myself.

After the court was dismissed, I asked Xiao Dezi to call Tianjizi over.

Tianjizi is the one who deduced the destiny of our dynasty and calculated my fate.

An old man with a white beard bowed and said, "Your Majesty."

I said, "I had a strange dream last night. I dreamed that I turned into a tree, experienced the wind and frost, and was finally chopped down by a few woodcutters. Do you know what this means?"

Tianjizi pinched his beard and calculated with one hand. After a long time, he said, "Your Majesty, that tree is most likely your previous life."

"Oh?" I said, "Is there really a past life and a present life in this world?"

Tianjizi said: "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

I smiled and said, "Excuse me, but you may be able to figure out what my afterlife will be like."

Tianjizi was horrified and immediately knelt down and said, "Please forgive me for my innocence. I must not tell you about this matter of reincarnation!"

I snorted coldly and said, "If reincarnation really exists in this world, then what was I in the beginning?"

Tianjizi was trembling and unable to speak.

"You go down!"

I rubbed my forehead and thought, if I could become the king of a country in this lifetime, I would create a hegemony that would last for thousands of years!

Connecting rivers and seas, promoting agriculture and commerce, establishing imperial examinations, military service, storing food and grass, emphasizing civil and military affairs...

The various states were surrounded by warring factions, and the powerful ones used diplomacy to conquer the weak, and when the time was right, they would join the other powers in a bid for supremacy.

Ten years later, I have become a regional overlord, and all the weak ones have come to me. Now I have enough capital to conquer the powerful nations and unify the world!

……

The rebels had already forced their way to the city gates. The entire imperial city was filled with smoke, flames, and wailing.

I am wearing a dragon robe, standing on the city wall, with rebels inside and powerful enemies outside. Is God trying to kill me?

I felt a pang of sadness in my heart and laughed up to the sky: "This hero of the world is truly worthy of his reputation! Although I have been defeated, my soul is immortal! Only because of my hard work and endurance, I have become a hero! I! Have no regrets!" As soon as I finished speaking, I felt a sharp pain in my chest and an arrow had already pierced my heart!

"Hehe." My eyelids drooped and I felt my body falling.

Strange? Why do I feel like this happened a long time ago, falling from a great height?

……

"Really? How could I get lost in my inner demons?"

I sat up from the pool and looked at the white clouds. In front of me, a handsome man smiled at me and said, "My name is Yang Yu. Welcome to ascend to Linghua Fairyland."

Yes, I have ascended successfully. I am now an immortal.

"I am... Yun Qing..."

……

In the Immortal Palace, I looked out at the three thousand immortal realms. Now, I have become the leader of all gods and the king of all immortals.

Next to me, a woman in blue stood shoulder to shoulder with me.

I said to her: "Let's become a couple."

The woman in green seemed to be so excited that she shed tears. She had been waiting for these words for a long time.

At the grand ceremony, all the immortals paid homage and the gods congratulated.

There are countless immortals at my feet, but somehow I just can't feel happy at all.

In the bridal chamber, I smiled and lifted the red veil of my partner, my beautiful eyes sparkled and spring was in the air.

Wait, what's her name?

Is her name Xiyun? No, is her name Meng Shiyu?

No, no, who am I?

"what happened to you?"

She asked, and I held her hand and said, "Who are you?"

"You are confused, I am your wife... I am..."

No no no! ! !

Who am I?

Is it the struggling ants on the ground? Is it the ancient trees standing tall and proud?

Is he a great emperor? Is he a highly regarded immortal?

Is this reincarnation? This is not reincarnation!

Birth, aging, sickness and death? Is this reincarnation?

Spring, summer, autumn and winter, time passes, is it reincarnation?

If there is reincarnation, then who am I?

Am I a mortal? A tree? An emperor? The master of the fairy world?

Or……

Am I just dreaming?

Am I dreaming about them, or are they dreaming about me?

No, this is not a dream!

That step is real! The blue sky and white clouds are real! The flames of war are real!

I am an ordinary civilian, doing nothing.

I am a cultivator with extraordinary talent and have lived a colorful life.

I am a fish swimming in the water and want to see the vast ocean.

Whatever it is, I firmly believe in one thing!

I! Don’t! Believe! In! Reincarnation!

After several reincarnation dreams, I have been there for hundreds of generations.

Fate is determined by heaven, and fortune is a changing number.

Behind the sword, frost, snow and halberd, the clouds are parted to reveal the clear sky.

Ask where the Tao is and you will find your true heart after a hundred setbacks.

I am who I am!

My determination is unshakable! Just like a tenacious heart seeking the truth.

Nothing can stop me! No one can control my destiny!

What is the six realms of reincarnation? What is destiny? I will smash it to pieces!

You say I'm just a humble ant, but I also want to see the mountains and rivers!

You say I'm just a pig to be slaughtered at will, but I also have my own free life!

"Hahahaha!"

Mu Qing laughed loudly and wildly. At this moment, the depths of his sea of ​​consciousness were like surging waves, and earth-shaking changes were taking place.

The sea of ​​consciousness of a person is in the Niwan Palace, which is the upper palace. The sense organs of a person all rely on the Niwan Palace, and a cultivator can spread the spiritual consciousness in the Niwan Palace and leave the body surface. But spiritual consciousness is ultimately illusory.

But people have another palace located in the heart, which is the Zhongyuan Palace, also known as the Jiangfang Palace. The heart governs the mind and is the manifestation of reality.

The second sea of ​​consciousness where Mu Qing cultivated was located here.

At this time, a little person standing cross-legged appeared in the first sea of ​​consciousness, and a small golden heart appeared in the second sea of ​​consciousness! This heart actually merged with the little person, giving the little person's body a gradual outline, and even revealing his figure and appearance!

When this person appeared in the sea of ​​consciousness, the entire ocean turned into a dazzling gold!

Mu Qing didn't know that he had already cultivated a heart for Taoism.

Since ancient times, many people who practice Taoism have believed that they have a firm faith in Taoism, but in fact they cannot even clearly explain what Taoism is.

The so-called Tao Heart is the obsession of the cultivator. The deeper he pursues the Tao, the straighter the road will be. The Tao Heart spreads across the entire bright avenue. Although there are three thousand Tao Hearts for three thousand avenues, the long road of seeking the Tao is like a long night, and you may even fall and get up countless times, but as long as you have the right direction, a long-term vision, and a strong heart, you may be able to get a glimpse of the secret!
