Of course, those seated in the square were not real distinguished guests.
The main venue for the moon-viewing event is actually in the palace above the stairs.
But only the king and the many distinguished guests invited by the king are qualified to set foot there.
With the invitations in their hands, Luo Jing and his friends could only feel the atmosphere of the banquet hall outside.
Following the invitation and the instructions of the on-site guards, Luo Jing and his companion sat at two adjacent tables.
Fruits and cakes were displayed on this quaint table, and everyone sat directly on the floor, which was covered with silk mats.
After the two of them sat down, Ji Canghu was already clinging to Luo Jing, his hands clenched tightly.
But Luo Jing could feel that her nervousness had indeed eased a little.
The woman's grip on him also eased a lot, which seemed to indicate that Ji Canghu's emotions were gradually calming down.
But compared to everyone in the banquet hall, Ji Canghu's out-of-control nervousness was still extremely strange.
Luo Jing asked: "What are you so nervous about?"
This faceless demon who had wreaked havoc in the Central Plains and had even sneaked into the Soul Refining Sect, was actually getting nervous just because he stepped into the palace of a small country
From the deeds of this faceless demon, it seems that she even sneaked into the imperial palace in Central Plains and stole things
The woman leaning against Luo Jing pulled the corners of her mouth and forced a smile.
"My sister has a weak mental endurance and is nervous because she is about to do something big... Is that not okay?"
She continued to treat Luo Jing perfunctorily.
However, the woman's eyes were fixed on the palace in front of her.
The look in her eyes did not look like that of a thief scouting the area, but rather like she was trying to engrave every blade of grass and every tree in the palace into her mind.
Mixed with some nostalgia and sadness...
Luo Jing asked in a voice transmission: "Have you been to this palace before?"
This question made the woman leaning against him suddenly stiffen.
Then Ji Canghu raised his head, looked at Luo Jing with a slightly pale face, and said with a forced smile: "It seems that I did lose my composure... Even my stupid brother could see through my thoughts at a glance, ha..."
The woman gave a self-deprecating smile, pretending to be cheerful.
But this pretended carefree smile was completely unable to reproduce her usual wild and cheerful self, and only made her seem more and more at a loss.
Looking at Luo Jing's confused eyes, the woman said slowly: "Yes, I have been here before."
"But that was when I was very young. If I hadn't cultivated to the God Summoning Realm and recovered the long-sealed memories of my infancy, I wouldn't even know that I grew up in the Great Moon Kingdom Palace."
Ji Canghu's whispers seemed to contain endless sorrow, but also seemed to contain no emotions at all.
Her expression became dull and calm, as if she was no longer nervous.
But the hand in Luo Jing's sleeve was held even tighter, causing Luo Jing pain.
Looking at Luo Jing's profile, Ji Canghu said seriously: "In one's life, one will forget many things. From childhood to adulthood, from immaturity to maturity, the many things one experiences will be forgotten one by one."
“Human growth is like walking in a fruit forest, where we can continuously harvest fruits from the trees. But the bamboo baskets we carry on our backs are fixed, so when we harvest new things, we will continuously throw away the old things.”
“A person’s life is a life of constant forgetting.”
"If you haven't cultivated to the level of summoning gods and can strengthen your consciousness and enlighten your mind, ordinary people simply can't recover their past memories."
"Brother, since you have already cultivated to the realm of summoning gods, do you remember what happened in your childhood?" Ji Canghu looked into Luo Jing's eyes and asked.
This question seemed to be asked casually, yet extremely serious.
Luo Jing looked into the woman's eyes, wondering what she wanted to ask.
Is she still worried about the descendant of the demon
But unfortunately, the life memories that Luo Jing recovered after breaking through the God Summoning Realm were the memories of his previous life on Earth.
As for the memory of the original owner of this body, it is still vague.
Looking at Ji Canghu's face, Luo Jing said, "I spent my childhood in Sanhuai City. All my relatives have passed away... Sister Hu, you should be very clear about this. Why are you asking this suddenly?"
The woman leaning against him remained expressionless after hearing Luo Jing's answer.
She just lowered her head and spoke slowly.
"In fact, not having relatives is not really a misfortune. At least you know where all of them have gone."
“The most painful thing in the world is knowing that your loved ones are still alive, but you have lost all contact with them and will never see them again.”
Ji Canghu laughed mockingly and said, "These days, I have also thought that I might have some kind of emotional changes when I enter the palace."
"But imagination is imagination after all, and it cannot replace the real reality."
"It was only when I actually stepped into the palace and saw every brick and tile that I had seen in my memory that I realized my mental endurance was not that strong."
Ji Canghu grabbed Luo Jing's hand and slowly lifted it up.
Under the moonlight, the two people who were so close to each other could see each other's tightly clasped but constantly shaking hands.
The smile on Ji Canghu's face was extremely bitter: "If you didn't support me, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to stand."
So this old fox's out-of-control emotions are related to her relatives
Her lost relatives
Luo Jing asked: "Sister Fox, is your last name Ying as well?"
Growing up in the palace of the Great Moon Kingdom... This must be royal blood, right
But Ji Canghu slowly shook his head and said, "No, my real surname is indeed Ji. But when I was young, I lived in this palace with my family."
"Of course, we got separated later."
"That was my only brother. He was kidnapped and probably had all his memories wiped out."
"Because I was like that, all my memories were wiped out, and I took on a new identity and started living in a new place."
"Someone wanted to make our family disappear completely, but by chance I stepped into the path of magic, cultivated all the way to the God Summoning Realm, and regained my memory."
"But my brother may not be so lucky."
"He might even have died of old age."
"Even if he is not dead, he is now very old and has difficulty in moving."
Ji Canghu's words shocked Luo Jing: "Are you so old?"
This question seemed to ease the old fox's nervousness.
The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a playful smile that Luo Jing was familiar with.
"Yes, my sister is already 92 years old this year... In terms of age, she can be your grandmother."
Luo Jing looked at her speechlessly and said, "So your nervousness is related to your brother?"
"But since your brother is missing, why are you still so nervous? Could it be..."
Luo Jing suddenly thought of a possibility and was shocked: "What you came to the Dayue Kingdom Palace to look for was not "The Immortal Way Magic", but clues about your brother?"
