Floating Dreams, The Promise of 3 Lifetimes 浮生梦·三生约/ 百里长安 by 叶笑 Ye Xiao (OE)

Three lifetimes, what sounds to be words that carry warmth. But her three lifetimes, were made up of broken fragments and sufferings. When she was still a high deity, she had loved a person, but the result was to have her life pearl be cruely taken away, and from that moment onward in her chest where her life was hanging was no longer the concern for innocent souls, but was a paper talisman.

And the first lifetime after, she descends to the mortal realm to personally experience the sufferings of life, to rawly experience the parting of heart with the person she loves, and in the end to die prematurely as a matyr, and the world rests in peace as an ending. After her death, that King lives the rest of his life in loneliness, yet never again able to move her heart even slightly.

During the second lifetime, she is a goddess that has return from her trials, forgetting all about the entire process from cause to ending. Only that glance towards Peng Lai, that person who was in hot pursuit with her, repeatedly calling out her name. In the end, however, was just a “I’m sorry, wrong person.” No matter how much efforts she puts out, in the end was left with a dying body and shattered soul, when she was disappearing in that person’s embrace, she thought about this slow and long life, ending it at that moment is also a good thing. However, she did not expect, that in the end would be saved.

The third lifetime, she was cared by many, that man who once reached his hand into her heart and cruely took her life pearl, now dotes on her and gives her his protection, wanting nothing but to give the entire world to her. And that person who watched her die with his very own eyes, was going madly across the four oceans and each piece of land only to find that person whom he loved for three lifetimes…loved and forsakened, but it was all just a dream, just a stage. But, no matter they are xian or yao, mo or human, have already long entered this dream and can not get out of it….

    Dear Lidge, have you read this book: 浮生梦 三生约?

    Do you know the author? I Googled the name but couldn't find a translation so probably not.

  • Not yet. Right now I'm reading Fu Sheng Meng, San Sheng Yue. It's the xianxia that A'Shou is reading. I'm on chapter 11, so I can't marathon the rest of it, and I can't find a complete copy online. There's an older version called Bai Li Chang An, so I might continue with that while waiting for the audiobook to finish.

      • The first life went by really fast, but like most first lives, it ended pretty terribly. So the main girl took a forgetting pill to forget the tragedy that her qing jie was. (The situation is actually like SuSu's from 3W3L, have an emotional trial to raise one's level, and then forgetting the whole thing.) I personally like her a lot better after she forgets.

        I'm pretty early into the second life, but so far, she is in a male's body trying to help her troublesome friend, Feng Yin, who happened to have fled, with her qing jie. She is pretending to be ridiculously sappy to the girl this body is fated to be, but the original soul seems to have left the body to play tag with Feng Yin. I'm almost sure that the body is inhabited by the male lead Jun Hua. And the complete this early love triangle is the Crown Prince, who is acting gay towards the male Ye Xiao. Their cheesy lines are making me crack up.

    • You mean Bai Li Chang An is another name for Fu Sheng Meng San Sheng Yue? If yes, pls write in chinese for me so I can google the ending because I can't find the ending of 浮生梦·三生约 online:(

  • Hey peanuts,
    I found out about their pay. our paying the cxt8 for download a 5% commission goes to each reader participating in the project. They also get base pay of at least 15rmb per hour of recording. Now.just.need to find safe way to fund the alipay account.

    • I read someone complained abt paying on this book. Then someone said there is no free lunch & it is little money for the enjoyment which is greater than buying book. I can't really understand A'shou's replies. I think something like it takes much time & effort to do audiobook but get little in rtn.

      What is alipay? If got bank a/c in China can pay? My dad got a bank a/c in china but I've yet to figure out how to use it online, haha...

  • Started this book this morning, and I like it. It reminds me of TQGZ's 3L3W. I Don't like the male lead very much right now, but hopefully, he'll improve. When is the second male lead going to appear?

    • I think its the crown prince? Maybe? Im assuming because cgege is the crown prince. How is the main guy reader? A shou kept raving about his voice.

      I expected it to be funny too. In one of her lifes she is a man. Lol

      • His voice is definitely manlier than C Ge'ge, but in the few episodes I listened to, I feel that his reading is a bit slurred. I like C Ge'ge's crisp pronunciation better. :D

        Yup, I'm in that life right now. It's quite funny (not as hilarious as XMCCJRS though). I wonder who the male lead is in this life?

        • Xiaoyuer, you are a bad influence:P I also wanna start this book now since I like C gege best being funny. He is way too serious in Mirage. Since I saw his pic, I can't picture him being the husband:(

          Chancy, can you pls translate a short msg to A'Shou my most fav reader for me? "I've listened to most of your audio books. I like your reading & your choice in books the best. Support you & C gege in more future collaborations."

          • Do that for u later. Don't know how to type Chinese on the phone.

            Apart from Cgege, Bu-gege is very good also.

  • Hehe, such a messed up love triangle. It was supposed to be Mo Bing Jie (female body though his spirit is male) loves Crown Prince (male) and Song Zi Mo/Ye Xiao (male body but her spirit is female) loved Mo Bing Jie, but it turns into Mo Bing Jie and the Crown Prince fighting over Song Zi Mo/Ye Xiao.

    Loving it so far. Peanuts, chancy, everyone, come listen with me!

      • Quickly start this. Oh this is so engrossing & fast paced so I manage to get into the book very fast. It is very similar to 3L3W but more interesting & angsty. Currently it is my no. 1 fav book. I am at chapter 6 so will finish all the freebie 2moro:( This is so addictive, I need to find a way to pay so I can listen ASAP.

    • I am listening. Puahaha, C gege really sound like a eunuch, so cute. Xiaoyuer, pls give me a brief summary as my Mandarin is bad & I can't hear Jun Hua properly:( He is a prince who rescued her & become her shifu? Who killed her family? Later, he become the king & married her? He likes her bcos she looks like someone else?

      • Jun Hua is the third Prince of the king who was in love with Ye Xiao's monther who once taught him magic. He confessed and she left. Nan Xiao, saw a glance of the future and discovered that his childhood sweetheart, the Prime Minister's daughter, will be killed by the Ye family, so he kills the entire family. Unfortunately for him, Jun Hua saves Ye Xiao, who looks a lot like her mother. He takes her as a student, and occasionally visits her. After he gets the throne, I think it's unstable so he comes back to ask Ye Xiao to marry him. Part of the reason is because the Ye family is known for producing great people, and the people love them. There is also a saying that goes something like "If the Ye family is there, there will be peace. If the Ye family isn't, the world is in chaos."

        • thank you sky. I am at chapter 5 now. Oh this is so angsy & addictive, I can't stop:( In chapter 4, she left the palace earlier, then went back during the coronation of the new queen for what? Also, how come she suddenly lost the baby? Just bcos of the drinking the wine? I am confused. Oh so sad for her to lose the baby but don't know why I can't really sympathise with both of them as it feels like they brought everything on themselves with their stubborness & lack of communication. This is more angsy than 3W3L:(

          • I think the wine had something added to it? But anyways, yeah, she lost the baby after drinking that wine. She called for Jun Hua, but he was mourning over that painting of Ye Xiao's mother and didn't come to see her in time.

            I think she just wanted to see the king for the last time bc she knew that she would have to take Nan Xiao's place after she took her revenge. But he refused so she just left him a message to not look for her in the next life. T.T

        • Huh, so fast 2nd life already. What happened to Jun Hua after she died in 1st life? She & Jun Hua are both high deities? Don't understand why she needs to live so many life? In every life, she also will have a tragic ending with Jun Hua?

          • I'm not quite sure what Jun Hua is, but he gets reincarnated as a woman, Mo Bing Jie. And the second male lead is a powerful deity equal to the Heavenly Emperor, but he is reincarnated into the human body of the crown prince. I'm a little upset because I don't think either of the male leads are worthy right now. One used her to stabilize his power and then betrayed her with other women and the other used honeyed words with her just to get her Nei Dan and almost killed her in the process, to revive the love of his life. Both are bad, bad men! >:O

    Oh such bad men:( Why the 2 novels I am listening, modern & ancient have such flawed characters:( Anyway I am at chapter 6 which is more upbeat compared to the last few chapters. Hehe, Cgege is so funny. Oh, I get so confused with who is who & hard to remember their new names:( Btw if u need a good & angsty modern novel, listen to Let Me Look at You.

  • The comments said chapter 26 is very funny with C gege being kicked like a ball? Arrrrgh, can't wait to hear this book:)

  • SPOILER:

    A'Shou said there are 2 endings, one online & one physical book. She is reading from the physical book which has the beginning & ending different fr the online version. According to one comment the ending is sad:( Skyblu, did you read the online ending? If online is happy ending then the audiobook will have sad ending. Oh, don't know what to feel as I am not that fond of the guys in this novel. Yet, I don't like sad ending:(

    • I couldn't find a complete copy of Fu Sheng Meng, so I read its previous incarnation Bai Li Chang An. It's a bit different. The first life is different in that he wasn't in love with her mother and Ye Xiao was never pregnant. There are also extra lines/scenes in the audiobook that help the story make more sense.

      The ending of Bai Li Chang An is happy, but I thought it was a bit random and done just so the ending was happy. [spoiler] His soul was utterly dispersed, and then he suddenly reappeared.[/spoiler] It was odd.

        • Oh, this means the audio book will have tragic ending:( Hey Chancy, maybe you can suggest to A'Shou to do something different like reading the 2 endings & let the listeners pick the ending they wanna hear:)
