Yu Xia walked in a hurry, for fear of being discovered by someone on her departing back.

At this moment, she was extremely cowardly in her heart, and she didn't dare to talk to her family face to face, and she didn't dare to expose what they thought in her heart.

That would be too hurtful.

Whether it was her family or herself who was hurt, she couldn't tell.

She never thought that her family, who loved each other, took care of her family who loved her since she was a child, and one day, she would go to the opposite side of her.

Yu Xia led the horse and walked aimlessly, the world was so big, but it seemed that there was no place for her.

She thought wildly, her whole person was immersed in sadness, and she didn't notice that someone came over her.

"Natsu-chan?"

The man said, with some confusion and concern in his tone.

"What's wrong with you?"

Yu Xia raised her eyes and only saw a vague figure, but she could distinguish the person from the voice.

It's Hesui.

Yu Xia wiped away her tears, shook her head, and said in a pretending relaxed tone: "It's nothing, it's just that I'm dizzy, uncomfortable and tight, and I'm afraid of worrying my family when I go home, so I came out first......"

"You're just in time, I'm just going to Jinshidi to return the horse, you can help me bring it back."

He Sui took the horse rope and stared at her for a while, he couldn't see Yu Xia's expression clearly in the night, but he could vaguely recognize that she looked darker and didn't seem to be very happy.

Is there something going on?

He Xun had doubts, but he knew that Yu Xia didn't want to say that he didn't want to ask more, so he only sighed and gave her the roll of paper he was holding.

"If you don't go to the school to study, don't leave the words behind. I've written you a few notebooks, and you can take them and practice them well. ”

Yu Xia took the notebook and smiled at him: "Thank you, Ah Sui." ”

Seeing that she didn't want to speak, He Sui didn't bother her, nodded to her and left.

Yu Xia held the notebook, looked at the back of He Sui leaving, his lips moved, and finally said nothing.

......

"Girl, why did you look like this?"

Familiar voices, familiar tones, just as if they hadn't been heard in a long time.

Yu Xia had some inexplicable surprises and doubts in his heart, and before he had time to think about it, the man sighed again, gloating: "You still want to be my apprentice because of your poor appearance, wouldn't it be a shame for me to say this?" ”

Yu Xia was sure now, wiped her tears and looked around, and found a tall old man with half-white hair and wrinkled face standing under a tree by the river, holding a dry tobacco bag in his hand, looking at her with a smile.

"Grandpa Chen!"

Yu Xia couldn't help laughing, but he had complicated emotions in his heart, and after saying hello, he didn't know what to say.

"Girl, come here."

Chen Daoren suddenly restrained his smile and looked serious.

Yu Xia subconsciously listened to his words.

This is already outside the village, and there are not many people around. In the woods in the suburbs, you can still vaguely hear sparrows flapping their wings and flying around, and the carrier pigeon on Yu Xia's shoulder seems to be a little happy, flapping its wings and wanting to fly out.

"Let it go, the carrier pigeon will know the way, and when you have had enough, you will know that it will come back."

Yu Xia let go of the carrier pigeon according to his words, and Chen Daoren pointed to a big stone, "Sit." ”

Yu Xia sat down honestly.

"You have been in the Xuanmen for more than half a year, what do you realize?"

It's such a big and high problem at first.

Yu Xia couldn't answer for a while, after all, she wouldn't say some empty words to Chen Daoren.

"Do you know what to sacrifice as a mysticist?"

Chen Daoren asked again.

Yu Xia frowned slightly, she seemed to feel this question very deeply, just now, she was given up by her family......

Her eyes began to sour again, her throat choked, and she couldn't speak for a while.

Seeing her like this, Chen Daoren turned to ask the third question.

"Is the black jade gourd I gave you back that day still there?"

Yu Xia subconsciously touched her neck, and the unfamiliar touch in her hand made her stunned, remembering that the gourd had already been worn by Yu Dayou, and now the green jade plate hanging on her neck was obtained from Changchuan.

"Grandpa Chen, I'm sorry......" Yu Xia lowered his head and said apologetically, "I gave the black jade gourd to my family...... It's not right for me to give what you gave me to someone else without permission......"

Chen Daoren smiled when he saw her like this, and did not mean to blame at all, but asked her again: "Do you remember what I said when I gave you that gourd?" ”

Yu Xia nodded, "You said at the time that the black jade gourd can be blessed to drive away evil spirits, and the blessings are both complete." ”

"Then you have been wearing this gourd for so long, have you felt its effect?"

Yu Xia hesitated for a long time, and finally shook his head truthfully.

This question has been bothering her for a long time, and she has long wanted to ask Chen Daoren to understand.

That black jade gourd is obviously a magic weapon, why does it have no effect on her at all?

Chen Daoren took a puff of cigarette and slowly exhaled a white fine smoke, then turned his head to look at Yu Xia with a puzzled expression, "This is not strange, because that gourd has no effect on you in the first place." ”

Yu Xia was stunned, why is this? Can the magic weapon still have no effect?

Could it be that Chen Daoren's words of "blessing and exorcism of evil spirits, blessing and happiness" were actually deceiving themselves?

"I'm not lying to you, that black jade gourd is a genuine magic weapon, and it is indeed an auspicious object, but it is useless to the Xuan Master."

Chen Daoren stood by the tree, looked up at the crescent moon that had just risen in the sky, and looked a little stunned.

"The questions I just asked you are actually one answer."

"As a mystic, what do you need to sacrifice? Why does the black jade gourd not work for you? ”

"Heaven is clear, cause and effect cycle. Where there is a cause, there must be an effect, and there must be a cause for the result. This is the way of heaven, why do our Xuan masters rely on their own cultivation to interfere without authorization and change cause and effect? Who should bear the power of the altered part of the cause and effect? ”

Yu Xia understood what Chen Daoren said, it was the Xuan Master who was good at changing the heavens, and it was naturally the Xuan Master who suffered the consequences.

Xuan Shi said that he was pursuing the way of heaven, but what he did was actually against the sky, and he thought that the world's Xuan masters were changing cause and effect under the premise of balancing the power of cause and effect creation and their own losses, but listening to Chen Daoren's current words, it seems that this is not the case.

"Widows, widows, orphans, loneliness, disability, lack of money, lack of life, lack of power."

Chen Daoren sighed, he still looked up at the wanyue, Yu Xia sat behind him, only his tall back could be seen, but he couldn't see his expression of sadness and joy.

"This is the fate of the Xuan Master's unauthorized alteration of the heavens."

"Five disadvantages and three shortcomings, the world operates with its own laws, and if you spy on the heavens and change the heavens, you will be punished by the heavens, which is the fate that every mysticist can't escape."

"So how can the black jade gourd that can make people receive blessings to drive away evil spirits and be blessed with both blessings and blessings can be useful to the Xuan Master?"

"Master Xuan, you are not qualified to be both blessed and prosperous."
