Chapter 125: Old 8 Recovers His Past Life Memory
Lao Ba was trapped in a dream. What he had was not a nightmare, but all his experiences in his past life. Yes, Lao Ba had always thought that he was having a nightmare. It turned out that those dreams he had were all his memories. He clearly remembered everything that happened in his past life! Lao Ba suddenly understood why he felt so happy when he saw Yunyan for the first time. Where did that feeling of joy in his heart come from?
Back then, when faced with the choice between Yunyan and the desire for power, he chose the latter. Giving up Yunyan also made him live in regret. So, this time, he would resolutely stay with Yunyan, because he had chosen power in his previous life. Although Lao Ba did not stand at the highest point, he enjoyed the pleasure of power, but this pleasure could not heal him. In the later period, when the Nine Dragons were fighting for the throne, Lao Ba felt more and more empty in his heart, and he missed more and more the time he lived with Yunyan in Xinghua Village!
In his previous life, he gave up Yunyan, the person he loved most, and chose to listen to his royal father and marry Minghui. However, it was not until he married Minghui that he discovered that Minghui was not as kind as he appeared. She was selfish and had a very vicious heart. As long as he said one more word to the maid, she would be beaten. In the end, Lao Ba had no choice but to dismiss the maids around him and only had eunuchs to serve him. As a result, he suffered from the gossip of outsiders. Lao Ba did not take the ridicule of outsiders to heart. After all, this marriage was originally for the sake of interests!
What bothered Lao Ba the most was Minghui. She always looked down on his mother. His mother gave birth to such a good person, but as an elder, she tried to please her daughter-in-law for the sake of him, her son, just to make his life more comfortable. Lao Ba had thought about changing Minghui's character, but every time, it was like playing the lute to a cow, and every conversation ended in disarray.
Lao Ba seldom slept in Minghui's yard, but at the same time, he did not go into the backyard either. It was just that he avoided contact with Minghui due to his busy official duties. Because of guilt, he was unwilling to take in other women!
In fact, only Lao Ba himself knew that in the dead of night, he regretted more than once. If he had made a different choice, would his life not be so bad? He missed Yunyan, so he privately asked his people to go to Jiangnan to look for Yunyan, but his people never found her, not even a trace, as if the Yunyan in Xinghua Village was his fantasy! Lao Ba even speculated more than once whether Yunyan had an accident? That's why he couldn't find her no matter what!
Until the fourth brother ascended the throne, he was thrown into death row because of some things. The eighth brother thought he would never see Yunyan again in his life. He kept holding tightly in his hand a medicine bottle that he had taken away from Xinghua Village. Unexpectedly, when he was about to give up, he actually saw Yunyan. Just like the first time he saw her, Yunyan had not changed at all. She was still as young as a girl of eighteen or nineteen years old!
Lao Ba was in a state of confusion at that time. Although he felt very confused, he did not ask what was going on. He just kept expressing his longing for Yunyan and told her that he could see her again before he died. He had no regrets in death, but he regretted making the wrong choice!
And at that time, Lao Ba asked with anticipation, if there was an afterlife, Yunyan, would you be willing to accept him?
Yunyan still had a cold expression. When listening to Lao Ba's longing for him, she had no emotion at all. After he finished speaking, she gave Lao Ba a fake death pill and told him that he could get away with it! After that, Yunyan turned and left. Lao Ba shouted excitedly. He wanted to keep Yunyan, but he couldn't keep her. He held the fake death pill tightly in his hand, but he didn't swallow it, because all his hopes were shattered. He already knew the answer to the question that Yunyan didn't answer!
The Eighth Brother had lost the will to live. He had not obtained the rights he had been pursuing in this life, and he could not keep the people he wanted to keep. He felt that there was no meaning in living in this world, so when the Fourth Brother gave him a glass of poisoned wine, he drank it without thinking!
Late at night, he suddenly sat up, sweating so much that his underwear was soaked. Lao Ba recalled the memories of his previous life and the last scene in his dream. He knew that his guess was right. Yunyan was not dead, but just hiding! Lao Ba didn't know why he lived again. He should have come back when he was very young, so when he was young, he made many choices that were different from the last time!
Lao Ba panted heavily, his eyes became darker, and he thought about what was going on. Could it be that before he died in his previous life, he had been thinking about what it would be like to go back to the past? Lao Ba thought that this was not the reason. If it was just such a ridiculous reason, then there would be countless people in this world who would live again. After all, there are things in life that people will not regret!
Lao Ba couldn't figure out what was going on. But he didn't want to think about it anymore. He was just thinking about what to do in the future. Should he stay in Xinghua Village and wait? He was afraid that Yunyan had left. He knew that Yunyan had some secrets, some secrets that could not be told, so she would never stay in one place for a long time. Xinghua Village was an accident, a place she rarely liked!
Lao Ba leaned against the wall and sat there thinking for a long time. It was not until the day came that he finally made up his mind. No matter what, he must find Yunyan and find out why!
However, before that, Lao Ba had to build up his own power like in his previous life, and it had to be even more powerful than in his previous life, because only in this way could he protect the people he wanted to protect! This time, he would not let his mother bear the unwarranted blame, causing her to kill herself because of self-blame!
After getting up and packing himself, Lao Ba found Lao Si and asked them to go back to the capital, while he would stay in Xinghua Village and would not go back until a hundred days later! Lao Si, Lao Jiu and the teacher all looked at Lao Ba like crazy, thinking that Lao Ba was really crazy. Lao Si refused to agree, but Lao Ba just looked at him coldly and said nothing more, ignoring them directly!
From that day on, Lao Ba sat in front of Yunyan's fake grave every morning, and returned to the village chief's home as soon as the sun went down! Although he knew that the person in the grave was not Yunyan, he could not tell anyone because he did not want to hurt Yunyan anymore!
