Chapter 326 The Final Meeting
However, before Qi Ye could even be shocked by the extremely bouncy sensation transmitted from the soles of his feet, he felt as if he were possessed by a god, breaking through unknown time, space and dimension at the speed of light, traveling millions of miles in an instant.
The surprise in his eyes had not yet faded. Looking at the paintings of Guanyin on both sides of the tunnel, one could guess that people had already passed through the long history that they had only roughly understood in the past, between the yellowed white paper and black words, which was both strange and familiar!
Then, Qi Ye's figure suddenly stopped in a blank space on the tunnel wall, where he met up with Wei Ying and the other four who had arrived earlier to wait for him.
Steadying himself, Qi Ye didn't ask them why they were lingering there. Instead, he followed their gaze and focused on the scene that had been left blank.
At the starting point of both ends of the screen, the most prominent figure that they recognized at a glance was—Wei Chaoyan!
On the left, Wei Chaoyan, dressed in a simple and elegant black and white checkered short-sleeved shirt and black ice silk trousers, with a youthful and energetic face, is rushing towards a child on the road who is unaware of the danger that is about to befall him, with a look of fear and determination!
On the right, a naked baby girl with her pink, toothless mouth wide open, crying loudly, was hastily cleaned up by a sweating midwife, stuffed into a soft, comfortable gray swaddling cloth, and rushed out of the blood-smelling room and into the hands of a handsome and steady-looking young man who was anxiously waiting outside the door.
The man glanced briefly at the baby in his arms, then decisively picked her up and, ignoring the objections of those around him, lifted the curtain and entered the room. He carefully bent down to show the wrinkled face of the little one in his arms to the woman lying listlessly on the bed, her complexion ruined.
All six knew that this was the beginning of all the changes! Before they could take a closer look, in the blink of an eye, their surroundings had changed again.
Looking at the familiar expanse of water and sky, Wei Chaoyan excitedly and familiarly called out, "001, we've arrived! Aren't you coming out?"
"How's your injury? We haven't heard from you in so long, and Ah Ying and I were so worried about you!!"
Wei Ying, who had been there before, turned his head and explained in detail to Qi Ye and the others who had never been there before. Qi Ye and the others listened silently, while subtly observing the scene within their field of vision as Wei Ying explained it!
As soon as Wei Chaoyan's words, filled with sincere concern, fell to the ground, the six of them were greeted by a scene of snow-covered earth, the moonlight, as clear as water and as white as frost, inadvertently sketching a breathtaking masterpiece—
001, exuding an aura of mystery, elegance, and refined nobility, suddenly appeared ten steps away from the six people!
Judging from the shimmering color on its fur, which swayed gracefully even without wind, Wei Chaoyan knew that 001 must be in excellent condition at the moment, and her heart, which had been hanging in suspense, immediately landed safely!
"001!" Wei Chaoyan hurriedly took two steps forward, as if she wanted to give it a big, passionate hug, so that it could experience her enthusiasm and joy up close!
However, the next moment, the person unconsciously stepped back to their original position!
Wei Chaoyan, bewildered and disbelieving, repeated the action twice, but the result remained unchanged: the distance between them was still ten steps, no more, no less!
Wei Chaoyan stomped her foot angrily, puffed out her cheeks, and was about to try again, but was stopped by Wei Ying and Qi Ye on the left and right.
Seeing this, Lan Wenjing, who had been observing from the shadows, gently advised, "Zhaoyan, don't try anymore. There must be a reason why the senior doesn't agree. Don't force him!"
Upon hearing this, Wei Chaoyan's overflowing joy and excitement receded like the receding tide, leaving only a smooth, mirror-like sand surface shimmering with a slightly melancholic, hazy luster under the sparse moonlight!
His shoulders slumped slightly, his eyelids lowered, and he stopped speaking.
Lan Wenjing sighed inwardly at this, but his face remained warm and gentle. He then gracefully performed a junior's salute to Snow Rabbit 001, which stood silently in front of him, exuding an aura of boundless mystery and elegance.
"Lan Wenjing of the Gusu Lan Clan greets Senior. I am honored to consider myself an elder of Chaoyan and Aying, and I humbly ask, what is the purpose of Senior's summons to meet us today?"
Especially for such an urgent and obviously important private meeting, 001 actually specifically requested that Lan Wenjing, an outsider who was not part of Wei Ying's small group and knew nothing about the matter, must come to the meeting.
Regardless of Wei Chaoyan's actions, Lan Wenjing's questioning behavior, or the puzzled looks from the others, none of them managed to elicit a single reaction from 001, which had remained silent since its appearance.
Lan Wenjing, whose polite inquiry had failed, stood with his sleeves down. Facing the silent 001, he suddenly didn't know what to say. The five people behind him, including Wei Ying, also exchanged glances, but failed to reach a valid conclusion.
Fearing that speaking rashly might lead to negative consequences, they all fell silent.
For a moment, the two stared at each other in silence, the atmosphere instantly cooling down, as if solidified into ice and frost!
