Chapter 392 Marriage Line
Pei Xuanxi went to open the door. A thin and kind old grandfather was standing outside the door. He was wearing a white coat and holding a scepter. When he saw Pei Xuanxi, he exclaimed.
Pei Xuanxi was a little confused. Someone suddenly came to the mansion, but no one informed him?
"you are?"
The old man smiled and said, "I am the one who sent these four girls here."
"What?!" The four were shocked and rushed over to take a look. It was indeed the old man from that time. However, compared to the first time they saw him, he looked much more energetic and seemed to be a few years younger. His clothes were also clean.
Pei Xuanxi stepped aside to let him in. The old man looked at the people in the room and stroked his beard with satisfaction.
"It's not you, damn...old man, you are not here to take us away, are you?" Xu Zheng almost cursed out loud, but fortunately she remembered that she had to negotiate conditions with him and changed her words in time.
"You're here just in time. We're telling you, we don't want to leave. You sent us here, and now we're finally living a good life. You're sending us back. Isn't that a mess? Besides, we completed your mission, so shouldn't we be rewarded?"
Xu Zheng talked a lot, but the old man still had a smile on his face. After listening to her, he even laughed twice towards the sky.
"What are you laughing at?" Xu Zheng asked.
The old man said, "Don't worry, young lady. I am not here to take you away, but I have something to tell you."
Meng Yin hurriedly asked, "You're not taking us with you? What are you talking about? Tell me now."
The old man coughed twice and continued, "I need to talk about this matter slowly."
Hearing this, Tao Tao kindly handed him a cup of tea. The old man smiled at her and said, "This world is not a book, but a parallel world that coexists with your original world."
"Parallel world?!" the four of them said in unison. Pei Xuanxi and the others didn't understand what it meant, but as modern people, Xu Zheng and the others, even if they didn't understand it, had heard of the term parallel world.
"That's right." The old man continued, "And I am the time traveler who is responsible for supervising the normal development of parallel worlds. I specialize in traveling between different time and space. Each time period is a time and space. For example, China and modern times are two time and space. When I went to ancient times to collect historical records, I wanted to be lazy and bring back the historical records of this world as well."
"I didn't expect that something would go wrong. I accidentally left one of the ancient Chinese books here. I'm old now. After I went back, I found out that time and space were in chaos, but it was too late. For me, it was only an incense stick of time, but here, decades have passed."
"During those decades, great changes took place in Anhong Continent. Han Qianfeng picked up the book and wanted to change the system here. Although he did not succeed in becoming the emperor, he caused civil strife among several heirs. The cabinet was destroyed and the continent was divided into four countries. This was completely off the track of history."
"Logically speaking, without Han Qianfeng and his gang's evil ambitions, the system of Anhong Continent would have lasted for a thousand years. After another thousand years, it would slowly embark on the path of anti-aggression and aggression. However, due to my mistakes, the history of Anhong Continent was derailed, time and space became chaotic, my magic was weakened, and I was punished to wander in different time and space."
"The chaos of time and space is not that simple. The most important manifestation is the chaos of the marriage lines. For example, when I first saw you, I realized that your true love was not in that world, but here, and it happened to be these four people. At that time, I thought it would be a good opportunity to send you to this time period to try to stop them."
The old man clapped his hands, as if he was particularly satisfied with his arrangements.
"Because you are their destiny, there is a high probability that nothing will happen to you, so I sent you here. I hope that with my guidance, you can guide them not to go down the path of division."
Meng Yin said: "This marriage line is so outrageous that it defines two people from two completely different worlds and identities as the right match?"
The old man nodded and said, "That's why I'm so eager to find a way to get the history of Anhong Continent back on track. As long as it's back on track, it will affect what happens in the following time periods. This is the butterfly effect. Otherwise, many people will live their lives alone, just like you. If it weren't for me, no matter how many peach blossom disasters you encounter in the future, the ending will be failure."
Xu Zheng and Meng Yin wailed: "No way?"
Xia Nian asked: "Then we will live alone for the rest of our lives, but what about Xiahou Yu and the others in this world? They became monarchs of the four countries, so they should have harems."
The old man said, "What the young lady said is right, but after a series of events, they became tyrannical and suspicious. The so-called harem is made up of people who can get close to them. Naturally, they will not allow those ministers to stuff people into their palaces. They almost always solve the problem secretly, so there is no harem."
The old man glanced at the four people and said, "This incident caused a great uproar in the original history books, but they acted arbitrarily and it didn't work. Later, the four people died of exhaustion caused by mania, died of the backlash of the poisonous insect, died of excessive blood loss due to assassination, and died of poisoning."
These four points correspond to Yiqing, Gu Ling, Xiahou Yu and Pei Xuanxi respectively.
Four people: "..."
Tao Tao couldn't help but complain in her heart: "There won't be a good ending."
The old man said: "Because it is doomed to fail. In fact, you are not the first to travel here."
Xia Nian said: "Who else is there? We haven't seen any other travelers."
The old man sighed and said, "Because she is dead. She was a ghost I saved when I was wandering in modern society. She was forced to drown. So I thought of using magic to let her soul travel here to stop Han Qianfeng's actions."
Meng Yin suddenly realized: "So, that person's soul was transferred to someone close to Han Qianfeng? But she didn't succeed, right?"
"That's right." The old man said, "The method I originally thought of was to cure the root cause and send someone to directly stop the source of everything, Han Qianfeng. It just so happened that Han Qianfeng's wife A Lian had passed away, so I let the girl travel through time and space to her body and let her persuade Han Qianfeng to give up."
He leaned on his cane and said angrily, "I didn't expect that Han Qianfeng would be so cruel that he would kill his wife just to continue his plan. Because this method failed, I lost too much of my magic power and lived in modern society for a long time. It wasn't until I met you that I saw new hope."
He looked somewhat relieved. "You have excellent character and ability, so I sent you here. Fortunately, you have lived up to my expectations and succeeded."
Meng Yin was speechless and said, "So we have been alone for more than 20 years because of your mistake."
The old man chuckled and apologized, "It was my fault, so I tried my best to make amends. You lived up to my expectations and solved all the possibilities that might have caused them to split up. You also helped them find their true love. At that time, Anhong Continent slowly got back on track, and the subsequent marriage lines were automatically corrected. My magic also returned, and I became a time traveler again, so I gave you a reward."
Tao Tao exclaimed: "Oh! The map in that book!"
The old man nodded: "Yes, those four maps."
Yi Qing asked doubtfully: "Map? Is it the map on the jade slip?"
Tao Tao shrugged her shoulders, forgetting that she hadn't told them about this yet. "Yes, actually the map was given to us in the book. In order not to arouse your suspicion, we said we stole it from Han Liuyi..."
After listening to this, the four of them finally figured out their doubts.
The old man smiled and said, "In short, the matter has been successfully completed, and you now completely belong to this world and will live here for the rest of your lives."
