Rebirth: My Brother Can Only Be Mine

She is a dream flower tree, also known as the amaranth tree.

According to folklore, when the branches of this plant are just beginning to grow, you can bend them up and tie a knot in them, and the branches will then grow in a twisted pattern until they finally grow into hard branches.

Slightly yellowish flowers like old cotton cloth bloomed on the branches, and the knot became part of the branch.

It is precisely because of this morbid entanglement that the branches appear tender and beautiful.

It is said that if you have a dream at night, get up early in the morning and quietly tie a knot on the branches of the dream flower tree when no one is around. If it is a good dream, it will come true, and if it is a nightmare, it can be resolved.

There is also a saying that people who often dream, especially those who have nightmares, can tie a knot on a branch, and they will not have nightmares for a period of time, or even dreams at all.

......

At night, when they passed by the stall, Lingmeng quietly put a few grass seeds on the three young men, so she knew that they did not leave that night and stayed in the village.

When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Ling Meng quietly weaved a dream for them, knowing that they were now preparing to capture her, destroy her consciousness, and then bring her back to the sect to continue creating dreams.

Because she killed some disciples when she escaped last time, the other party planned to destroy her spiritual consciousness directly this time.

Mu Xia also entered Reimu's dream and saw Reimu's memories.

He saw that he was in a pitch-black place with a small hole on the top. Light shone in from the hole, just enough to illuminate the entire tree.

Apart from that, it was pitch black all around.

There were countless iron chains tied around the tree trunks and branches. Judging from the condition of the branches, there were probably hundreds of chains.

The other end of the chain stretched into darkness, with no end in sight.

After a long time, a door was pushed open in the lower right corner of the darkness, and some monks wearing uniform orange-red clothes came in one after another.

Through the light coming in from the door, you can see those people sitting cross-legged around the tree.

After the door closed, it was pitch black again.

Soon after, a white-bearded monk walked out from the darkness. He walked to the Dream Flower Tree, used magic to fly into the air, and then grabbed a branch of the Dream Flower Tree.

Mu Xia felt that the Dream Flower Tree struggled for a moment, but the iron chain that bound the branch flashed an orange-red light, and the Dream Flower Tree stopped moving.

Mu Xia was extremely angry, he knew what the other party was going to do.

The opponent wants to tie Reimu's branches into knots. Yue Reimu's talent is to create dreams.

In addition to Reimu actively creating dreams, when the dream flower tree is tied into knots, the people around it will automatically enter the illusion. The illusion is like a dream tailored for them, and they use it to train their spiritual consciousness.

They imprisoned Reimu here and made her branches become tangled constantly, thus achieving the effect of a dream-making tool.

The white-bearded monk grabbed the tree trunk and bent the branch with both hands, preparing to tie a knot on it.

Only then did Mu Xia notice that there were too many knots on the Dream Flower Tree. Normally a tree would have a few knots at most, but now there were dozens of them.

Mu Xia was so angry that his soul was trembling, but he was just a wisp of consciousness and could do nothing.

The spirit of the Dream Flower Tree, Reimu herself, has not yet woken up, and its branches are now hard and bent and motionless.

The white-bearded monk condensed a ball of fire with one hand and burned along the underside of the branch.

The Dream Flower Tree was being burned and instinctively bent its branches to avoid the fire. The monk's flaming hands grasped the branches, bending them while burning until they were tied into knots.

Mu Xia felt suffocated just by looking at it, let alone Reimu who was treated like this.

Thinking of the monks sitting in the darkness waiting to train their spiritual sense, he just wanted to drag all of them into the fire and burn them for a hundred years.

Mu Xia both hopes that Reimu will wake up and escape quickly, but she also hopes that Reimu will not wake up. After waking up, her consciousness will experience the pain that her real body felt again. This is too cruel.

Mu Xia's consciousness has always been attached to a certain branch. They would come over and tie knots on the Dream Flower Tree every once in a while. Gradually, there were more and more knots on the branches, and some branches even had more than one knot!

Watching Reimu being abused day after day, he was angry and sad. He was just a bystander of memory and there was nothing he could do.

Mu Xia went from being angry at first, to being sad later, and then to being numb due to sadness. He just stared at the faces of those who came in more and more carefully day by day.

I kept them in my mind and swore to myself over and over again that I would avenge them one day!

After an unknown amount of time in the darkness, Reimu's spirit gradually woke up.

She looked at the branches that were covered with bruises on her body and the chains that bound her, and remained silent.

Just like when Mu Xia saw Reimu quietly carving at the night market stall, but now it was not just quiet, but more of sadness.

Those monks didn't know that Ling Meng had awakened, and still came here from time to time to practice.

Ling Meng quietly added some psychological hints into the dreams of several of the monks, and quietly implanted his own thoughts into their consciousness.

As the days passed, the divine consciousness grew stronger, and the young monks who often came here to practice were controlled by Lingmeng.

She deduced from the monk's dream that the elder of the sect would attend an event in three days and would leave the sect. Lingmeng set three days as the day for escape.

Three days passed quickly, and when they came in to practice again, the only elder was bending a branch on the Dream Flower Tree.

Reimu was stubborn and refused to bend the branch today. She resisted the instinct to bend after her body was burned, and she straightened the branch forcefully.

The elder concentrated all his attention on increasing his firepower.

Reimu took the opportunity to control the young monks and quietly untied the other end of the chain in the dark.

By the time the elder realized something was wrong, the chain had been more than half untied.

The monks controlled by Reimu launched a siege against the elders.

The elders were afraid of the death or injury of their disciples, so they were hindered and did not use their full strength.

After fighting for a while, finally, all the chains on Reimu were untied.

The main body was too big, and she couldn't get out through the hole on the top or the small door in the corner.

So she changed back into human form and controlled several monks to open the small door in the corner. She stripped off the disciple's clothes from a monk, mixed in with the monks and ran out in the chaos.

After running out, she looked back at one of the monks, and the sadness in her heart was no longer as overwhelming as before.

Reimu controlled the opponent, picked up the sword and stabbed himself in the heart.

With Reimu's current cultivation level, he can only quietly plant divine thoughts in young disciples.

Although most of the elders were out today, he still had a tough battle with the elders who stayed behind and almost couldn't escape.

Mu Xia was frightened by what he saw.

Finally, Reimu controlled the young monks who had planted the divine thoughts, and they all raised their swords and committed suicide.

The remaining elders stopped attacking and went to rescue the disciples, which gave Reimu the opportunity to escape.

After Reimu escaped, she hid for a long time until she returned to the mountain temple, where she disguised herself as an old woman and stayed there until that incident happened...
