C317 dreamlike non-dream
As soon as Gongsun Ze Tian laid down, he quickly fell asleep. He had originally wanted to sleep soundly, but the heavens did not listen to his wishes. As soon as Gongsun Zaitian closed his eyes, a voice interrupted his dreams!
"Tianze ?" "Tianze ?" Do you remember me? I am Tianxin! " A woman's voice sounded faintly, as if it came from the heavens, drifting about. It was difficult to determine where the voice came from, and it also had a heavenly serenity to it, as if the voice penetrated the soul, reaching the heavens, and clearly appeared within the mind.
Gongsun Ze Tian slowly opened his eyes and looked around him. He could not see the sky nor the ground. Even the carriage where he was sleeping was gone. He could not see anyone nearby. All he could see was a greyish patch.
At the very least, he was sure where he was. Unfortunately, there was nothing in his surroundings that could be used as a reference. It was as if he was in a void of space, and he was the only person in this space.
"Tianxin? Who was Tianxin? Who is Tianze? " Gongsun Ztian forced himself to calm down and asked the voice in the air. He had never heard of the name 'Tianxin' before, but as for the name 'Tianze', he faintly felt that it was a bit familiar, but he was unsure where he had actually heard it before. He only felt that his thoughts were in a state of chaos, as if his mind was about to become muddled.
"Tianze, I missed you so much. Do you miss me?" Just when Gongsun Ztian was still confused, that ethereal voice sounded again. The voice was extremely gentle and sentimental, as if they had not seen each other in a long time.
This kind of soft whispering gave Gongsun Zaitian an inexplicable sense of familiarity. However, he could not recall where he had seen such a scene before, nor could he recall who it was. It was as if there was something that was within reach, something that could not be grasped no matter what. This sort of strange yet maddening sensation caused Gongsun Zaitian to feel extremely frustrated.
"Are you calling me? Am I called Tian Ze? But why can't I remember anything? Who am I? Who is Tianxin? " Gongsun Ztian asked. However, he felt as if his mind had gone blank. He couldn't remember anything. He had even forgotten who he was.
"I'm waiting for you to come find me. You'll find me, won't you?" That faint voice once again rang out, it was still as gentle as ever, still filled with love.
"Me? Find you? Where can I find you? Who exactly are you? " At this moment, he could not even remember who he was, so where could he find this person? Gongsun Zaitian didn't even know her name, how could he find her?
"I'm waiting for you to come. I'm waiting for you. I'm waiting ?" The graceful voice continued on its own, as if she had not heard Gongsun Zaitian's question. She was only mumbling to herself, but her voice became weaker and weaker, more and more indistinct, until she could no longer hear anything.
"Who exactly am I? Who are you? Can anyone tell me what's going on? Where can I find you? "Come out!" When Gongsun Zaitian saw that the voice had disappeared, he felt a sudden reluctance to part from her. He raised his head to the sky and shouted, hoping to call her out once again.
"..." There was only silence. The only response to Gongsun Zaitian's question was his voice. Nothing else.
"Hey, don't go. You haven't told me where to look for you yet!" Gongsun Ztian became somewhat anxious. He placed both his hands by his mouth and continued shouting at the top of his lungs.
"..." There was still no response, as if that sweet and gentle voice had never appeared before.
"Are you still there? Answer me! Where am I now? What am I here for? I seem to be looking for someone, but who am I looking for? Luo Han, yes, I'm going to look for Luo Han, I remember now, I'm called Gongsun Ze Tian, I'm going to look for Leng Nuohan, hey, are you there? Do you know a person called Leng Nuohan? I want to find her. Do you know where she is? "Answer me!" Gongsun Ze seemed to have gone crazy. Sometimes she would shout at the sky and sometimes she would lower her head and mutter to herself. Those who didn't know this would think that she was someone who had just come out of a mental hospital.
"..." There was still no sound from his surroundings. It was as if the entire world had fallen silent, no sound could be heard, and there was no one by his side. It was as if everything in the world had completely abandoned him.
"Nuhan, Nuhan, where are you?" "Cold Nuo Han!" Gongsun Ze Tian repeatedly called out the name of 'Leng Nuohan', his voice getting louder and louder until it finally became a hoarse shout.
Gongsun Ztian's voice echoed throughout the entire space. However, only his own hysterical voice could be heard. There was no response from him. The space was still terrifyingly silent.
At this time, Gongsun Ze Tian's mind suddenly stirred, as if something had smashed into his heart. After a moment of discomfort, Gongsun Ze Tian lost consciousness. But his mouth still seemed to be mumbling something.

Inside the carriage, Situ Qingyun had already sat by the side and waited for a long time. Although the great army had set up camp, because Gongsun Ze Tian had fallen into a deep slumber, and his body constantly trembled in his sleep, no one dared to carry him out of the carriage. They could only allow Gongsun Ze Tian to continue sleeping inside the carriage, hoping that he would wake up soon.
"Ah ?" "Nuo Han, Nuo Han." Suddenly, he opened his eyes wide and sat up abruptly. He repeated the word 'Nao-han' and tightly gripped the blanket covering his body with both hands. His face looked somewhat hideous, as if there was an enemy not far in front of him.
"Third Bro, are you alright?" Seeing that his nephew had woken up, Situ Qingyun hurriedly asked.
"What's wrong with me?" Gongsun Ztian stared in front of him in a daze. After a long while, he slowly came back to his senses and asked his third uncle a question in return.
"Have you had a nightmare?" Situ Qingyun asked in concern.
"Nightmare?" Third Uncle Situ Qingyun looked at him with a concerned expression. Gongsun Ze only knew that his face was no better than's.
Gongsun Ze Tian couldn't clearly tell if it was a dream or not. He could say it was a dream, but it felt too real. However, if it wasn't a dream, then how could he explain what had happened? As for his' nightmare '? [Forget it. I am the only one in this empty space. Who is going to scare me?] At most, it was just scaring him.
"I came back to find you asleep with your mouth muttering nonstop!" Situ Qingyun said as he handed a leather flask to Gongsun Zaitian.
"What are you muttering about?" Gongsun Ztian asked in puzzlement.
"He started to mutter 'Tianxin' or something, said that he wanted to find her, and then called out the name of the Leng Jia girl! Who is this Heavenly Heart? " Situ Qingyun thought for a while, then replied slowly.
"I don't know why, but I might be too tired!" Gongsun Zaitian's heart surged with monstrous waves. However, he kept his mouth shut. He did not plan to say anything more to his third uncle. Perhaps he was afraid of his third uncle worrying, or perhaps he was afraid of him asking too many questions.
However, Gongsun Ze Tian was certain that what he saw and heard might not be a dream. But if it wasn't a dream, then what kind of existence was it? Gongsun Ztian was unable to determine for sure, but who exactly was that woman called 'Tianxin'? Why do you want me to save him? Wait, he even mentioned Tian Ze, could it be ??
Oh, Xiao San, don't worry. Third Uncle will help you find the Leng Jia's girl! Third Uncle's untimely words interrupted Gongsun Zaitian's train of thoughts. He spoke resolutely to Gongsun Zaitian.
"I'm fine now. How long did I sleep this time?" Gongsun Ztian wryly smiled. He knew that his Third Uncle was trying to comfort him. Now that he didn't even have a single clue, where could he go? Without any accurate clues, no matter how many people there were, it would just be like looking for a needle in a haystack. It would only end up as a futile attempt.
"Not much, just one afternoon. It is already late at night and we are camping not far from the fifth camp. I have already informed them of our trip and I believe we will arrive by tomorrow night or the day after tomorrow before noon!" Seeing that his nephew had drank some water, his complexion looked much better, thus Situ Qingyun gave him a simple explanation of the current situation.
"So fast!" However, this was good as well. He had better finish up and return to find her as soon as possible! Oh right, Third Uncle, could Elder Cui Ziyi have come to find me? " Gongsun Ztian muttered to himself for a moment before turning to his third uncle and asked.
"I've been here for a while. Seeing that you're sleeping soundly and not daring to disturb you, I'll head back first!" Situ Qingyun nodded as he explained.
"Un, I'll have to trouble Third Uncle to invite him over later. I have something to tell him!" Situ Qingyun said after taking another sip of water.
"En, you rest first. I will call him over right now!" Third Uncle nodded and left.
As Gongsun Ztian watched his third uncle leave, he once again fell into deep thought. There were too many things happening these days. Although it wasn't enough to make him gasp for breath, it was enough for him to deal with them. This was especially so after Leng Nuohan disappeared. Gongsun Zaitian felt that he had gone a little crazy. Although he had repeatedly warned himself to be calm, he could not be 100% calm. This was completely different from what he was in the past.
"Nuhan, where are you?" How can I find you! If 'Tianze' is my past life, then what's the relationship between you and 'Tianxin'? And who is this' Tianxin '? " Gongsun Ze Tian muttered to himself. He could not give himself an answer to these questions, nor did he know how to find the answer. In fact, he did not even know where he should go to find Leng Nuohan!
He decided not to stay in the carriage any longer. He jumped out of the car and a cold wind blew into his face, causing him to shiver. He stretched his body, allowing the heat loss to be slower.
As the army advanced northwards, the temperature seemed to drop, but it had not reached an unbearable level yet. Looking at the natural changes around them, Gongsun Zaitian could not help but sigh at the greatness of nature. It was able to create such a complex and complex 100 types of objects, and even allowed them to maintain a certain level of control.
"Wait, 'natural'?" "Rules'?" Gongsun Ze Tian suddenly frowned, as if he had grabbed onto something. However, it was as though something had flashed by in front of his eyes and he had not caught sight of anything.
"What exactly did you think of? It seems very important, but why can't I remember? " Gongsun Ze Tian shook his head and sighed.
"What?" An old and deep voice sounded out from behind Gongsun Ze Tian.
