The Goddess' Garden was probably the place with the densest aura of life that I had ever seen. Everything here was alive, including the tables, chairs, benches, roads, and walls. Lush green vines intertwined to form neat vertical walls, and the soft and thick grass beneath my feet was as comfortable as a carpet. The gigantic round wooden stumps that could be seen everywhere were the tables and chairs in the garden — of course, the wild Jingle who lived here used them as a plaza.
"These tree stumps are actually the branches of the World Tree," Jaja explained to me as he sat in midair. "It hurts to chop down a growing tree, but I can't bear to do it. These are the fallen branches of the World Tree, and all the items in the Divine Temple are made from these branches."
A single branch was so large that it would take several people to wrap their arms around it, and the thinnest leaf stalk was large enough for a normal-sized person to use as a sofa. Why did these tiny Pandora girls, who were on average 0.1 centimeters tall, like to grow such a large tree?
Sitting on one of the World Tree leaves that had been cut into a semicircle on the ground, I surveyed the surroundings of the Goddess' Garden. There were plants everywhere, and there was a dazzling array of exotic flowers and herbs. There were almost no signs of man-made life. This kind of environment inevitably made me think of the depths of an uninhabited primeval forest. As a normal person, it would be difficult to imagine what it would feel like to live in such an environment. However, to the Life Goddesses, perhaps this kind of environment was the most comfortable. Their favorite bed would always be soft plant buds, and their favorite bedroom would always be growing on vines. These little things that grew out of plants.
Of course, since the Goddess' Shrine was a Goddess' Shrine, it definitely wouldn't be completely covered in plants apart from the outer walls. It was just that the Goddess' Garden was covered in plants. There should be other normal halls in the Goddess' Shrine. However, I was curious as to whether or not the Supreme Life Goddess "Milord" would ever use those places. After all, Jingle normally only needed a lampshade to sleep at home, and Kaja appeared to be only a grain taller than Jingle …
The large pile of candies that I took out from my personal space had already been snatched away by the wild Doraemon who had just finished playing 'chess'. The bunch of little fellows carried a large bag of brightly colored candies and disappeared with a buzzing sound. They even took away the elephant chessboard that Doraemon had stolen from her house. They probably planned to continue this seemingly interesting game of fighting on plastic sheets when they had the time. Jingle had nothing to do as she lay on top of my head, stroking my hair from time to time. Her mouth emitted a soft gurgling sound, just like a lazy kitten. When she was about to eat something, I had to remember to quickly cover her head with a handkerchief. The Supreme Life Goddess Kaja kept flying around in front of me, her face full of interest.
From just a moment ago, she was able to tell what happened to me in that short period of time (After confirming that the one or two hours dream that I had in my mind was actually only one or two seconds. It was when I crossed the outer wall of the temple that I experienced so many strange things). I have to say that the Goddess of Life is indeed worthy of her title. Compared to Dingdang who only knows how to eat, play, or act cute, she is much more useful. Look at how sharp her eyes are!
"The outer wall of the Shrine of Life is also called the Travel Wall, which means the journey of life." Kaja pointed at the wall covered by vines not far away. "Basically, anyone who passes through this wall for the first time will undergo a life retrace. Your consciousness will instantly sink into a point in time a long time ago. This point of time is automatically remembered by your 'life'. That point of time might not be something that you can remember deeply. Even after you think about it, you won't think that it was a big deal. However, your journey of life will remember it because the moment it happened, it completely changed your journey of life. It's like a fork in the road. "
"Most of the time, including the Gods, it is not easy for them to realize where the fork in their lives is. This is because these crucial moments are not earth-shattering. They are just very ordinary events in life. Your life may take a completely different path before and after this crucial moment, but this effect will only gradually become apparent when you have almost forgotten about this moment. So, every once in a while, the Shrine of Life will welcome guests. Basically, they are all rookie Gods who have just managed a world. They think that it is impressive enough for them to manage a world by themselves, and that they can even take on a half-baked Chaos Abyss. So, they confidently pass through the Travel Wall of the Shrine of Life to confirm where the turning point in their lives is. "
"Oh, and then?" Actually, I wasn't really interested in this topic. However, seeing that the "Lord" Jia Jia seemed to be interested, I could only express my interest and ask.
"Most of the rookies just pass through. How can their lives be enough for them to take a turn?" Jia Jia shook his head and said. "Shingon said that the truly powerful fellows will never feel that they are special. They always think that they are invincible and that they are basically no match for the guards of the Shrine of Father. However, Jia Jia was quite surprised. I didn't expect the Travel Wall to have an effect on a Void Creature like you. The first time the God of Father passed through this wall, he didn't react at all."
I thought about it and felt that it might be because I was considered a rookie. After being tossed around for so long, my main body couldn't even grow a face. How could a person like me, who had only awakened for less than four years, treat 23 million years ago as if it had just happened recently like the God of Father?
"That is possible." Jia Jia agreed with my guess. "Hey, what did you see?"
Yes, I was interested in this question. Everything that happened during the journey back in time was now clearly imprinted in my mind. I couldn't understand what was going on. Although I felt that the so-called Goddess of Life in front of me, who had a childish temper, wouldn't be of much help, I immediately told her what I saw. Of course, the brief description of my encounter with the loli version of Shallow Shallow was mainly about the last part of the journey back in time. It was about the strange things that happened after the attack of darkness.
"Oh, I see." Jia Jia circled around in the air. This was the subconscious movement of wild Jingle when they were thinking hard. I knew it from the domesticated Jingle. "It seems that the darkness that happened at the end was the highlight … Don't you think that the scene was very familiar? The black shadow, the oppressive feeling, the dangerous aura … Jia Jia is very familiar with it. "
As Jia Jia said that, she proudly stuck out her small breasts that were one size smaller than Mung Bean. I glanced at them and thought to myself, 'With such a ratio, they aren't even as big as Jingle's. Of course, it doesn't matter. No matter how big they are, they are the ones that use the least amount of fabric.'
"I thought of the Abyss. The aura is a little similar." I shook my head. "But now that I think about it, it is a little strange. The Abyss isn't that gentle. Those black shadows only gave people a dangerous feeling, but in reality, they didn't harm anything. They didn't even kill the spiders on the wall. Also, Shallow Shallow was an ordinary person at that time. She was probably affected by the black shadows, but she was just shocked. That girl's innate nerves shouldn't be so thick that she could go against the Abyss. Un, but what makes me feel strange is that I didn't have any impression of this incident before today. "
That was the strangest part. According to what Jia Jia said, what I experienced before was definitely a memory I had. That black shadow and the strange things that happened afterwards were definitely a terrifying incident for a brat who hadn't even graduated from elementary school. Didn't you see Shallow Shallow crying in fear? But no matter if it was me, Shallow Shallow, or my elder sister who was also at the scene, or the neighbors back then, none of them had any similar memories. I believed that if I were to go back and flip through the old newspapers from more than ten years ago, I wouldn't be able to find any reports of a solar eclipse in the old district of K City. It was as though this incident had disappeared from history. The only evidence left was what Jia Jia said: the memories of life.
"You were all ordinary people back then. No matter how gentle the Abyss was, it would be enough to destroy your memories." Jia Jia thought for a while and gave me a guess from a doctor's point of view. "If I didn't guess wrongly, regarding what happened that day, even if it was before the black shadow descended, your memory should be vague. I'm afraid that you won't have any memories for a period of time after that. You can go back and ask your elder sister. See what the others remember after that day. Maybe you can find some clues."
I noted down Jia Jia's suggestion, but regarding the strange things that happened after the darkness, especially the voice that echoed in my head, both of us were at our wits' end. We couldn't figure out what was going on at all.
My only vague guess was that it might have something to do with the Old Empire. In any case, whenever I encountered something strange, I would associate it with the Old Empire. After all, it had become my instinct to associate it with the Old Empire.
"Hey, hey, Ah Jun, Jingle is bored! Jingle wants to go home! "
The little thing who was lying on top of my head started to grab my hair and yell. This was because her sisters had received new gifts like a chessboard and a candy bag. In the end, she was carelessly thrown to the side. She wasn't interested in what Jia Jia and I were discussing, so she started to make a fuss about going home. I stretched out my hand to comfort her, but when I put my hand down, she bit her finger and hung herself …
It seemed that even Jia Jia couldn't explain much about my journey back in time. In fact, I was already surprised that this super Jingle could tell me so many things. Thus, I grabbed Jingle, who had started to bite her finger, and left the Divine Temple. Through our mental connection, I found out that Icetis had just been liberated. The two of us went to fetch her home.
Actually, what I wanted to say was that the God Realm seemed to be the home of these two.
Icetis was dragged in front of me by her father. Sister Bing, who had been high-spirited when she left, now looked dispirited. It was as though she had bought a box of instant noodles with only a packet of seasoning. Seeing Jingle and I making a fuss as we walked over, Sister Bing instantly revealed a face of grief and indignation, "Hurry up and bring me back! I can't stay here any longer! "
I was shocked. Could there really be someone in this world who could make a character like Icetis feel despair? Even if her own father were to drag her to apologize to someone, it wouldn't be this bad, right? In the end, when I asked, I was even more shocked. This unlucky fellow, he had just arrived at the Pantheon and he had already met the Dragon God who was looking for someone to chat with …
"He first asked me about the customs of the mortal world, then talked about the culture of mortals. The topic ranged from the cycle of life to the increase in wheat production. He used half an hour to talk about the law to me, then another half an hour to emphasize why he had to talk about the law. He mixed the movements of the celestial bodies and the God Realm's teachings together. In the end, he concluded that it wasn't enough to have one child. My father fell asleep twice and the elders were just five meters away with a hammock. Three God Servants walked out crying the moment they pushed the door open, but I had to persevere and listen! Do you think this can be tolerated? I wanted to sleep, but I didn't dare to sleep, and I wanted to leave, but I didn't dare to leave. Otherwise, he would have had to repeat everything from the beginning! "
Icetis's face was filled with grief and indignation. Looking at her pitiful look, I reckon that if Aunt Xianglin were to stand beside her, she would be exclaiming that life was beautiful. Uncle Khuyin, who was standing at the side, waited for his daughter to finish complaining before shrugging his shoulders, "At least because of this matter, the Pantheon didn't record any demerits on you. You saved tens of thousands of words of self-reflection."
Icetis's face continued to darken. Uncle Khuyin explained softly, "The Pantheon calculated a great merit for this lass."
I was speechless.
Icetis patted my shoulder, "Chen, you are considered brothers with Father God. Go and tell Father God that the highest Dragon God is going into confinement again …"
"Don't spout nonsense!" Uncle Khuyin glared at his daughter before looking at me, "I will wait for you outside the Father God Palace."
Guess what happened?
It was said that the Dragon God took two months to be released.
Uncle Khuyin hoped that his daughter could stay at home peacefully for a few days, or go to her own God Palace to deal with government affairs honestly. However, the word 'honestly' didn't exist in this female hooligan's dictionary. Not to mention, during this trip to the God Realm, Icetis met with a huge crisis in her life. Thus, her father could only grab my hand and entrust his daughter to me with tears in his eyes. At that moment, the hairs on my body stood up because the uncle said, "Take good care of my daughter.
"Take good care of my little girl and take good care of the child. Tell Xiaodeng that grandpa will visit her after a while …"
I was the one who forcefully dragged Icetis back. Otherwise, she would have fought her own father to the death …
This time, we didn't spend too much time in the God Realm. In total, it was only half a day. When I returned home, the sky was still bright. I didn't know where the rest of the family went. Only the little ones, including Jade Star who hadn't left yet, were squeezed in the living room to watch TV. Icetis, Jingle, and I returned successfully without attracting the attention of the group of dolls. The reason was probably because they were all attracted by the TV program. I went over curiously, wanting to see what could make everyone so engrossed. In the end, when I went up to take a look, I was surprised to see the OVA of "Rosette Girl" that someone had bought. The two main characters were sitting in the golden seats in front of the TV …
Alright, today's OVA, along with the first and second seasons that they had watched in the past, the entire "Rosette Girl" anime was shown to them.
Mercury Lamp and Zhen Hong sat side by side on the sofa watching TV. The other dolls surrounded them. After watching for a while, Liliana turned her head and scolded, "Why were the two of you so stupid back then?"
Jade Star, who couldn't stay still, kept twisting around. At that moment, she suddenly realized that I was standing behind her and instantly exclaimed, "Wow! Tell me when your parents come back! "
The group of little ones instantly stood up as if they had poked a hornet's nest. Zhen Hong turned off the TV, Jade Star unplugged the power, and Jade Star unplugged the DVD, only to find that the power had been cut off. Thus, she carried the DVD player and ran to the second floor. Liliana grabbed Elune, who was still in a daze, and turned the TV around and stuck it to her back. She ordered, "Gale!" Mercury Lamp waved her wings at Elune and the TV. Little Bubble was knocked off the sofa and started crying …
Brutis and I stared in awe.
"What are the two of you doing?"
I carried Little Bubble in a flurry while grabbing onto Liliana's belt, who was about to sneak past me. Then, I easily lifted the little brat in front of me.
"Experiencing the excitement of your parents suddenly coming back and destroying the evidence." Liliana smiled at me foolishly. "Isn't it the greatest pleasure of a child to get rid of the evidence of watching TV the moment their father comes home?"
The group of Rosette Girls and Elune, who still didn't understand the situation, almost dropped their heads.
Icetis sighed softly. "This bunch of people who lack fatherly love … Speaking of which, Jingle has a weird bishop."
"She's been weird for many years." I threw Liliana on the sofa and gave her a light slap. At that moment, I heard chatter from the entrance: the young ladies of the house had returned.
"Wow, Ah Jun is home!" Qian Qian sensed my presence before she even saw me. She tossed her shoes to the side and ran over barefooted to me. She impulsively kissed me and then giggled as she hugged my arm. "Is there something fun to do in the God Realm?"
See, I told you that the first thing this girl would do is to dig up gossip from me. I bet that if I can't come up with something interesting, this girl will pester me with this topic until next year's National Day!
"We went out to buy some stuff. There are your favorite ribs and ribbonfish." The elder sister began to pour the treasures that the young ladies had bought on the floor. Most of them were cheap and affordable clothes from the supermarket. It was obvious that the elder sister was in charge of the shopping. "Shallow Shallow also bought some gifts for Little Jade Star and the others."
Jade Star Stone immediately jumped down from the sofa and shouted, "What are you talking about? What did you say? "
Then, the group of puppets found a bunch of beautiful little clothes from the gifts that Shallow Shallow had poured out. With my sharp eyes, I noticed that all of the clothes had Barbie's logo printed on them … Only Shallow Shallow could have thought of this.
"Ah Jun, it looks like you have something on your mind."
Finally, Sandora came to my side and asked softly while the others were happily distributing the gifts.
I said, "… Father made something incredible in the basement."
