Watching Mo Dao Zu Shi

The Arrival

The first thing Wei Ying has took notice once he opened his eyes was a fairly large room. It was lit with a light that never seemed to burn. The windows are draped with large curtains with silky texture and carefully embroidered patterns of a garden. The floor is covered with a red, luscious, soft carpet adding a homey feeling to the strange room along with it's large chair. When Wei Ying sat on it, at first he had freaked out because it sunk but later found out that it's just due to the softness inside the chair that he relaxed. 

After a while, he heard a voice that seem to have been coming for all directions.

[Greetings to you, Yiling Patriarch. Have you been well?]

Who are you? What will I address you? And how do you know me?

[Lord Wei, I am your consciousness. I have been watching your choices in life. I have seen your yearning to at least clear your name but you know that it is impossible.] 

But how? I can understand of having a consciousness but how will I clear my name? You have said so yourself that it is impossible.

[Because of Lord Wei's kind heart and good intentions despite of what the public sees, the Heavens have bestowed Lord Wei a chance to clear his name by showing some humans his memories.]

But wouldn't they be forced?

[The Heavens have given this opportunity but with a little condition. When viewing Lord Wei's memories, this humans must still have no recollection of this memories. There are only a selected few of them who have already experienced some of Lord Wei's memories but most of it is from Lord Wei's childhood. After viewing Lord Wei's memories, they will continue on their lives and forget, but after all this events have passed, they will remember this memories so that the main goal of clearing Lord Wei's memories will be achieved but also managing not to interfere on this happenings and make sure that they will still take place.]

So they will also see my past?

[They will see Lord Wei's Past, Present and Future.]

Can I ask, who will be the ones who already know my childhood memories? And what will I address you Consciousness is a little bit inconvenient for me and also please just call me Wei Ying.

[Wei Ying can just call me whatever he wants except derogatory and inappropriate names. For your previous question, the Jiang Clan specially Jiang Wanyin, Jiang Yanli, Yu Ziyuan and Jiang Fengmian and Lan Wangji will be the best candidates for they are the closest to Wei Ying.]

So no derogatory and inappropriate names....... How about Li Hua?* Don't ask me where I got that name please, I also don't know.

[Thank you Wei Ying. From now on I will be called Li Hua. Now for the viewing I must have the consent of Wei Ying, will Wei Ying allow me to show his memories?]

Yes Li Hua, I consent.

[Then please prepare yourself as I transmigrate the humans]

After that Li Hua went silent and left Wei Ying to roam around the room. He quickly took notice of two doors and went to open the closest one. He was met with a kitchen similar to the one in Yunmeng Jiang where he lived his childhood. A wave of nostalgia hit him and began to frown with how Lotus Pier was reduced to ashes in just one night because of those power hungry Wens. He then began thinking, 'What will they think of me if they see me now?', 'Will they hate me again?'. These questions have been bugging his mind until he found himself opening the second door which revealed a stairway and several more doors. He first opened the farthest door and was met with a beautiful garden with all kinds of flowers. After that Wei Ying saw a floating transparent box in front of him that said,

[Wei Ying, I see you have been wandering outside of the room. This is a Garden of all kinds of medicinal, edible and decorative flowers. Do not worry you can pick them but for the time being please go back inside the house and rest.]

Li Hua where are we?

[We are at a place between heaven and earth. This is a place where there is no one taking sides and no one is higher than anyone else for all is equal.]

So I can hear you but what is this floating transparent box? 

[It is a screen. It is designed so that Wei Ying will not be startled by Li Hua when she talk. It first appears as a caution that Li Hua will talk, demonstrate, or show something to Wei Ying and the other transmigrators.]

Hmmm...... So then Li Hua where can I rest? There are too many rooms here and I don't know what to open.

[Don't worry Wei Ying, all these doors lead to a bedroom except for a storage room. Also don't worry for supplies like food, water, and clothes for they are always abundant here and are always restocked. If you wish to retire to your bedroom, please just follow these arrows and you will find a door with your name on it. The door on your right will be the storage room and the rest of this doors will be bedrooms of the coming transmigrators.]

Just as Li Hua said it blue arrows  appeared and formed a line leading to a door with Wei Ying's name on it. He opened the door and was met with a room which is similar to his room at Lotus Pier. He got outside and wondered to the room on his right which is the storage room just as Li Hua said. He got outside again and this time opened the room on his left which is Jiang Cheng's and found out that not all rooms are similar to his. This rooms have a similar look to the owner's taste to provide a sense of familiarity.

He got out of the room and entered his. He plopped down on his bed and as his body made contact with the bed he immediately fell asleep.
