Including the days he endured in the mortal world, Yu Huan lived for three hundred years. However, during these three hundred years, he knew for the first time what it meant to be completely hopeless and to be disheartened.
I thought that Ruan Qiuping and I were in love with each other, but in the end it turned out that I was just being too affectionate.
You are fully happy to spend your life with this person, but this person plans to find a new partner for you at your wedding.
The love words that Ruan Qiuping said to Xi were copied from a book, but there were more than just those few love words that Ruan Qiuping lied about.
It felt like I was placed high on the top of a mountain, and then pushed hard onto a cliff.
How happy I was a few days ago, how angry I feel now.
It turned out that Ruan Qiuping was giving alms because he felt sorry for himself for having spent his whole life in love in the mortal world, so he deliberately made up a beautiful dream to deceive him.
But there is no need for this false dream.
She pried open Ruan Qiuping's hand holding her finger one by one, mocked her coldly, and said that she would draw a clear line between them, annul their marriage, and they would never see each other again.
He teleported to the mansion, set up a barrier, sorted out Ruan Qiuping's things, and asked the fairy servant to return them to him.
I thought Ruan Qiuping went to the cave to find me, but I went to the cave again to cast a barrier and cleaned up everything.
It only took three minutes to do this.
After doing all this, he teleported to Yu Mansion, ready to inform everyone to cancel tomorrow's wedding.
But my parents are not here.
The fairy servant said that they had gone to get the dresses for tomorrow's wedding and would be back soon.
Red ribbons and red lanterns were hung everywhere in the Yu Mansion, and the fairy servants who came and went all changed into clothes decorated with red ornaments. Yu Huan looked at the red and felt that it was ironic and glaring.
Yu Huan originally wanted to ask them to take down all the decorations, but after thinking about it, he decided that it would be fine to notify his father and mother at the same time after they arrived.
Waiting for time with nothing to do does breed people's wild thoughts.
For example, when his father and mother came, Yu Huan had already started thinking that Ruan Qiuping might have broken through the barrier and saw the empty cave.
If you saw that, would you feel sad
"Yu Huan?" The mother was a little surprised. "Why are you here?"
Yu Huan closed his eyes and put all those random thoughts behind him.
"I came here to tell you something about your wedding tomorrow?"
"What's going on with tomorrow's wedding?"
"Tomorrow's wedding..."
Yu Huan suddenly felt his throat getting dry, so much so that he couldn't even utter the word "cancel". He turned his head away, as if he wanted to find a bottle of water to drink.
Yu's mother saw what he was up to, and used magic to pass a nearby cup of water to him, then took out a red envelope: "When you mentioned the wedding, I remembered this. This was sent to your house by Siming two days ago, saying it was your salary as an assistant teacher there and a wedding gift. You haven't been home these two days, so I was going to give it to you tomorrow at the wedding. Now that you're here, I can give it to you in advance... Also, what's wrong with tomorrow's wedding? Is there something you haven't prepared?"
Yu Huan did not answer her question, but put down the cup and took the envelope.
The paper of the envelope was so thin that one could clearly feel a square-shaped iron plate inside.
Yu Huan frowned.
Looking at Yu Huan's expression, Yu's mother asked cautiously, "Is it something urgent? Is there something important in that envelope? Should I give it to you earlier?"
The thing in the envelope was entrusted by Yu Huan to Siming three months ago. Although it was very important, it was far less urgent than canceling the wedding.
But Yu Huan didn't know what was wrong with his brain, and said, "It's not too late for you to give it to me now. I'll go out for a while. I'll talk to you about the wedding later."
When Yu Huan entered the library, the guard outside greeted him with a smile: "Jishen, you are getting married tomorrow. Why are you still interested in reading books today?"
After Yu Huan entered the library, he walked to a corner on the basement floor as if he knew the way there, then lowered his head and took out the iron plate from the envelope.
The iron plate was covered with a layer of sleight of hand, and it looked like just an ordinary sign with the four big words "Happy Wedding" written on it.
But once this deception is removed, the true face of the iron plate is revealed.
This is a finely crafted iron plate in the shape of a bamboo pole with a yellow tassel hanging from it. The middle of the iron plate is hollowed out, and a big "ban" is written in small seal script in the middle of the pole.
This is the token that can enter the restricted room of the library.
Yu Huan held the token and looked at it for a while, then closed his eyes, took a step back, and leaned his back against the wall.
… What are you doing
Yu Huan raised the corners of his lips mockingly.
An hour ago, he had threatened Ruan Qiuping, saying that he would cancel the wedding, annul the marriage registration, and that they would be even from now on and there was no need to meet each other.
But now he was standing next to the forbidden room of the library, ready to violate the rules of heaven and read the banned books to find out why Ruan Qiuping did not want to be deified.
Yu Huan lowered his eyes, but finally took out the token, opened the forbidden room, and went in.
Never mind, these are two different things.
When Yu Huan heard Ruan Qiuping say that he did not want to be deified, he was actually very shocked.
But besides being shocked, Ruan Qiuping's behavior of slacking off in the back mountain under the pretext of practicing martial arts, which he had seen countless times, suddenly had an explanation.
Looking at Ruan Qiuping's expression, I knew there must be something hidden in this matter, and it was a secret that Ruan Qiuping did not want to tell anyone.
Yu Huan just said "OK" and didn't ask Ruan Qiuping the reason.
But not asking doesn't mean you can be so careless as to pretend nothing happened.
He tried to find the Medicine Fairy and "accidentally" met Ruan Shengfeng on a mountain full of magical fruits.
I learned that Ruan Qiuping's cultivation entered a "bottleneck period" one hundred and fifteen years ago, and during that time, the place I visited most often was the library.
Perhaps the library has the answer.
Yu Huan looked through all the books related to the Investiture of the Gods in the library, and all of them talked about the benefits of the Investiture of the Gods, but not a single book said that the Investiture of the Gods would bring any disaster.
There was only one thing that concerned me.
In the thick book of deification, all the deified people were introduced in at least one page, except for the previous god of bad luck, whose entire life introduction, except for his date of birth, consisted of only a short line of words.
"After being deified, he died the following year for unknown reasons."
Apart from this, there is no other content related to in the entire library.
Therefore, Yu Huan set his sights on the forbidden room.
Nominally, all gods are forbidden to enter the forbidden house, but in fact, there is a pass in the Sima Ming.
After all, Sima Ming is in charge of the fate books of all the immortals who have come down to earth to experience tribulations. The fate books of some immortals with special identities need to be carefully placed in the forbidden room.
So when Siming wanted to invite Yu Huan to be his assistant teacher, Yu Huan proposed to use the forbidden room token in exchange.
Siming refused: "What a joke, can you just give it to me? This is against the rules of heaven. Don't think you can do whatever you want and create trouble just because you are a lucky god! If this matter is known by others, locking you up for three to five years would be a light punishment! Tell me, what do you want to see in the forbidden room?!"
Yu Huan looked into Siming's eyes and said, "Actually, I'm not looking into anything excessive. I just want to know how the last God of Miserables died."
Siming opened his eyes wide.
Yu Huan took a step forward and said, "Si Ming, although you and the previous God of Miserables cannot be called close friends, you were classmates after all. You must be ignorant of such a big event. If you tell me the reason why the previous God of Miserables died after being deified, I won't have to go to the Forbidden Book House."
Siming took a step back and said, "I... I don't know either! I won't give you the anti-corruption token. I won't do anything against the rules!"
"You usually go to the Forbidden Book Pavilion to place documents. I am your teaching assistant, so it is understandable that I sometimes help you deliver things. It is not a violation of the rules."
"No... No! Give up on this idea!" Siming said, then turned and left.
Even though Siming rejected his condition, Yu Huan still went to Siming College as an assistant teacher.
Even though Siming said firmly no at that time, he still gave the token to Yu Huan.
Although the Forbidden Book Room is called a house, it does not look like a house at all. Once you enter it, there is the vast land under your feet and the bright night sky above your head.
All the disturbances of the outside world were isolated, and it was so quiet that one could almost hear the sound of the nebula moving.
The bookcases here have become a maze, filled with banned books that are not allowed to be seen by the public.
There are so many books that even if you don't read the contents, it would take a long time to read through the titles one by one.
If I had to look for the records of the previous God of Bad Luck right now, I would not have enough time to tell my mother to cancel the wedding before tomorrow. Maybe even the plan with Ruan Qiuping to destroy the marriage certificate tomorrow morning would be delayed.
Even so, Yu Huan went in and began to look up the banned books.
As time passed, Yu Huan's mood had changed a lot from when he first came.
The only sound in my ears was the quiet turning of pages.
However, two voices in my heart gradually began to argue.
One of them said: It's getting late, we should go. If we don't go, it will be too late to cancel the wedding. The token is in your hand, so when can we stop reading this book
Another says: Life is an important matter, so how can it be delayed
Yi said: So the cancellation of the wedding can be delayed? I see you don't want to cancel the wedding. Why, have you forgotten how Ruan Qiuping deceived you
The other voice was silent for a long time before slowly speaking: "You have accommodated me hundreds and thousands of times in the mortal world. Maybe now, it is just another form of compromise. You lied to me because you couldn't bear to see my unrequited love in vain. Even if Ruan Ruan doesn't love me, she still has me in her heart."
The last voice said: ... There is no hope!
Yu Huan lowered his eyes and continued to flip through the book in his hand.
Suddenly, his gaze stopped.
In this book "Record of Death in the Immortal World", the word "mold" appeared, but the content of the next page was torn off.
The paper was torn quite roughly, leaving only uneven fragments, and there was no magic to cover it.
It was torn off by someone in a panic.
Yu Huan closed his eyes and performed a restoration spell on the page, and the damaged paper returned to its original appearance.
Yu Huan read the words line by line, and felt as if his heart was tied with stones and was sinking to the bottom of the valley bit by bit.
In the blink of an eye, whether Ruan Ruan lied or not, whether she loved him or not, all became insignificant.
His mind was full of the scene of teaching Ruan Qiuping how to perform the time and space storage technique a few days ago.
When Ruan Qiuping was learning this spell, he turned around and smiled at me: "Yu Huan, although your teaching is not very good, I can still learn it well."
The smile on his face became even brighter, and he continued, "It seems that my magic has improved a lot."
… He shouldn’t be smiling like that. He’s obviously… preparing something.
Yu Huan's breath was choked, and he put the book back to its original place almost in a panic, then turned around and hurriedly walked out of the Forbidden Book Room.
My heart is still dropping inch by inch.
It was as if I was falling into endless darkness.
At the same time, what Ruan Qiuping had said once again echoed in his ears.
"I hope all widows and widowers in the world can be as positive as your cousin, get over their grief in a month or two, and embrace a new life."
"I'm not being sarcastic, I'm serious. I even think two months is too long. If I die, I'll wish you'd find a new love the next day."
"I dreamed that Yu Huan married a beautiful wife, had many children, and lived happily forever. I was a bystander, watching from the sidelines, and I felt very happy... But why did he... just fall in love with me?"
"But isn't it too early for me to help you find a wife now?"
When I came out of the library, I found that it was pouring rain outside, the sky was full of dark clouds, and it was very depressing.
The two guards in front of the library were talking together.
"Did you see the thunder just now?"
"Whose thunder is this? Is it the thunder of heavenly punishment or the thunder of immortality? Why is there no news at all?"
"I don't know, but I heard that it came from Duan Qingshan's direction, and it struck forty-nine times."
Yu Huan's body stiffened.
Broken Mountain, Heavenly Marriage Stone.
… Seventy-seven forty-nine heavenly thunders.
This morning, I told Ruan Ruan, "In order to repay Ruan Ruan for saying she loved me and creating a beautiful dream for me, I will take all the forty-nine thunderbolts. From now on, we owe each other nothing, and we don't need to see each other again."
And just now, forty-nine bolts of lightning fell from the Duanqing Mountain.
It felt like a hole had opened in my chest, and heavy stones were pouring in, constantly suppressing my breathing.
Yu Huan felt his heart falling, and at this moment, it finally fell down heavily.
He was smashed to pieces and no body was found.
