Mortal Mirror

Zhu Zhu gave a soft 'huh' and said, "What's going on? What happened? These pink mists, could they be miasma?"

Li Ergou wasn't sure either and immediately said, "In any case, it's best to be careful."

After walking another hundred zhang, a huge cave appeared ahead. The cave was very large, but strangely, there was nothing inside except for a willow tree standing in the middle of the cave.

The willow tree looked very ordinary, and Li Ergou and Zhu Zhu both felt that they had come to the wrong place.

When the two arrived in front of the willow tree, Li Ergou walked around the tree and sighed, "Well, it looks like we really came to the wrong place. Let's go back and choose another path."

Zhu Zhu didn't respond, but instead said, "Have you noticed that this willow tree is a bit different from the ones outside?"

"Different? How is it different?"

"Look at its branches, there are so many of them. I've never seen such dense branches before. And this trunk is too straight. I always feel like something is wrong."

As she spoke, Zhu Zhu couldn't help but reach out and touch the trunk of the willow tree.

At that moment, as if the willow tree had been triggered, its entire body began to emit a bright light.

Pink light spread out, and Li Ergou could finally see clearly that countless pink mists were rising up, and their origin was actually this willow tree.

The pink light flowed slowly and flickered on the tree trunk and its branches, looking incredibly beautiful from a distance.

Li Ergou was amazed, wondering how there could be such a stunning tree in the world.

He looked at Zhu Zhu and said, "What's going on? This tree can actually emit light on its own. Could it have become a demon?"

Zhu Zhu said, "Could it be some kind of innate variant, an ancient treasure? After all, isn't this the place where the demon emperor is rumored to be?"

Li Ergou nodded and was about to speak when the light from the willow tree suddenly expanded and enveloped him and Zhu Zhu.

Li Ergou cried out in his heart, feeling dizzy. When he woke up again, he found that there was no willow tree in front of him. It was another cave.

He quickly looked to the side and saw Zhu Zhu also looking puzzled.

"Ergou, what's going on? Are we in an illusion right now?"

Li Ergou shook his head. "I don't know either. Who knows? I was dizzy just now, and who knew I would suddenly arrive here. Come, let me pinch you and see."

Zhu Zhu chuckled and said, "Are you willing to?"

Li Ergou quickly shook his head. "I'm not willing. Then you pinch me."

Zhu Zhu snorted and said, "I'm not willing either, but we can communicate like this, so we shouldn't be trapped in an illusion. We're probably just in a dreamscape."

"Well, I can't worry about so much. Let's go forward and see. It's just a tree, what tricks can it play? Even if it's a dangerous place, I'm not afraid," Li Ergou said, patting his chest.

"Well, with you here, I'm the same," Zhu Zhu said, her face slightly flushed.

The two walked along the dark cave, and soon they found that light was slowly appearing ahead. It turned out to be some glowing stones embedded in the walls of the cave.

The two discovered that there was a pillar of light rising up further ahead. They looked surprised and quickly ran forward.

Li Ergou held Zhu Zhu's hand. At this moment, he felt extremely happy. Perhaps in his heart, nothing in this world, no matter what treasure, was as important as Zhu Zhu.

Zhu Zhu seemed to sense something and looked at him. Their eyes met, and there was only endless joy in their eyes. To love someone, perhaps just one look would make the other person feel happy.

At this moment, Li Ergou suddenly felt very, very happy. Perhaps being with the person you love is really that happy.

The two arrived at the light and were surprised to find that there was a well. The well opening was not large, only about a meter across. The entire well opening was also about a meter above the ground. On the well wall, there were countless patterns carved, which were pictures of countless birds, beasts, fish, and insects.

The most conspicuous were the three largest patterns, which were the sun, moon, and stars.

On the other side of the well, there were three ancient and simple characters written: 'Three Lives Well'.

This name was quite domineering, but Li Ergou didn't understand why a well would be called the Three Lives Well. Could it be that one could see a person's past life in the well?

Zhu Zhu said, "It is said that a person has three lives, which are the past life, the present life, and the future life. The Buddha said that five hundred glances in the past life are exchanged for one brush in this life.

Five hundred brushes in the past life are exchanged for one encounter in this life.

Five hundred encounters in the past life are exchanged for one acquaintance in this life.

So, does life really have a past life and a present life?

Do you think we were really like this in our past lives?"

Li Ergou smiled slightly and said, "I don't know if there is a past life or a present life, but Wu Shenxian told me that you don't need any reason to like someone.

I want to tell you that whether it is the past life or the present life, our meeting is the best arrangement from heaven."

Zhu Zhu rolled her eyes at him and said, "Hmph, idiot, I didn't know how stupid you were at the beginning. I don't know when you learned to be so glib, but I'm really curious, why is this well called the Three Lives Well? Could it be that we can see our past lives in the well?"

Li Ergou took her to the Three Lives Well and said carelessly, "Instead of guessing randomly, why don't we take a look and find out?"

At this time, Li Ergou didn't think much and looked down into the well.

The first thing he saw was not water, but a piece of darkness. Just as he was surprised, he felt like time and space were changing, and everything in front of him was disappearing.

And he was in a deep space, an endless deep space. As far as the eye could see, it was dark, with only distant starlight.

"Where is this?" His voice was a little flustered.

Then he looked around, even more worried and said: "Zhu Zhu, where is Zhu Zhu? I was just looking at the well, how, how did I come here."

He was puzzled, but unfortunately, there was no echo in the deep space. This place was like the God and Demon Cave Heaven he had been to before.

The huge deep space, endless, gave people an unspeakable feeling of oppression.

Just when he was hesitant, confused, and even starting to feel uneasy, a huge warship floated in the deep space.

The warship was huge, more than a thousand feet long and more than a hundred feet wide. The fiery red, huge flag fluttered on the mast, making a hunting sound. He saw the warship getting closer and closer.
