I pondered for a long time.

"Are you worried, afraid that you won't be able to defeat that snake demon?" She asked.

"Yes, I have to do this, and if I don't worry about it, I'll face it," I said, "but the price is a bit big, it's equivalent to gambling with her thousands of years of cultivation, so I'm a little uneasy." ”

"I don't know if you can defeat him", she looked at me, "but I know one thing, and that is that this snake demon is not the eight-eyed red dragon of the past." No matter how powerful it was at the beginning, it was now just an ordinary demon, and it had been sealed in the leylines for more than a thousand years. You should believe in yourself that you have a very domineering power in you, and with this, you can fight it. ”

I laughed, "Okay, since the girl has confidence in me, then what reason should I not be confident?" Your mission is accomplished, and from now on, I will protect her for you. Not only will I help her deal with the snake demon, but I will also find a way to help her through the disaster. ”

"Then please bother more", she smiled with satisfaction, "Sir has worked hard tonight, please go and rest, I want to stay with her for a while." ”

In fact, I know that what she told me about the secret was only part of it, and the other part was her and Xue Jing's, I don't know. But I'm not greedy, my purpose is to save people, and now that's enough, there's no need to keep asking.

"Okay, then she'll be handed over to you tonight", I said, "After the sun rises, my Dharma protector will follow Xue Jing, you don't have to be afraid of her, she won't hurt you." ”

"I'm not afraid that she will hurt me", she took Xue Jing's hand, "That girl is the body of the Yang God, we are the same, if we get too close, it will affect each other, so I keep my distance from her." Sir, please go and rest, the next few days, you will have a hard time. ”

I didn't say anything more, turned around and walked out of the room to the downstairs living room, sat down beside Zhou Yan, and closed my eyes.

Zhou Yan looked at me, "Brother, what's wrong?" ”

"From tomorrow onwards, we have to do a division of labor", I opened my eyes, "Xue Jing needs to cross the tribulation." ”

"Crossing...... Tribulation? Zhou Yan was stunned for a moment, "She was really an immortal in her previous life, and she came to the world to borrow her body to cross the catastrophe?" ”

"This is a long story, don't say it", I glanced at her, "From tomorrow, my task is to protect her, your task is to refine the jade talisman, prepare a few more pieces, I will be useful." ”

"What kind of jade talisman do you want, and what are you going to do with it?"

"Be a talisman."

She understood and nodded, "Okay, after dawn, I'll go and choose jade." ”

"Okay, let's get some rest first", I closed my eyes again.

The so-called catastrophe, to put it bluntly, is a difficult life-and-death barrier. Taoist cultivation is to seize heaven and earth, and after reaching a certain point, it will be punished by heaven, which is the so-called catastrophe. In a sense, the catastrophe I will face in two years is also a catastrophe. The way of heaven is balanced, and cultivators who collect the essence of the sun and the moon, the aura of the mountains and rivers, and the creation of heaven and earth, and have extraordinary strength, naturally have to endure special tribulations.

Thousands of years of primordial power, what kind of power does it have to be? I can't imagine what it means, but at least I know that if this thing falls into the hands of the Eight-Eyed Red Dragon, then the world will not be peaceful.

The little demon harms the world, but it is just taking people's lives and harming one party. The powerful demon cholera world is never as simple as killing a few people, they will make waves, make chaos in the world, and kill countless living beings. Every time there is a great chaos in the world in history, on the surface, it is due to people, but in fact, if you look deeper, there are monsters in it.

Many people don't understand why evil and evil must harm people, and why good and evil can't get along in harmony. In fact, this is not complicated from the root point, because the good and evil are inherently mutually exclusive, and it is impossible to be completely harmonious. The yin and yang in the world are balanced, and if they are balanced, they will be peaceful, otherwise they will not be peaceful. The demons always want to cause trouble, because they need evil energy, and when the world is in chaos and the lives are ruined, the yin energy will flourish, and their time will come. Whether it is a human or a demon, in the final analysis, they all look at the world from their own perspective, there is no right or wrong, only strength and weakness.

I admire the White Deer Fairy very much, she is kind-hearted, so she lives in the world. Last time, she could have left, but in order to deal with the snake demon, she chose to cross the human disaster. What she did, no one would know, and no one would even believe that if you look at it from a secular point of view, this White Deer girl is really a fool.

But this is the god of Taoism, just do, don't say, don't want to be famous, whether you admire her, criticize her, in her heart, it's just a cloud of smoke, leaving no trace at all. We can't look at God's actions through human eyes, and if everyone understands God's realm, then this world of samsara is not a world of turbidity and evil, but a pure land of heaven.

I also envy the White Deer Fairy, she can choose to be reincarnated and face the test of heaven in another way. It is best if she succeeds, even if she fails, she can still maintain her spirituality in reincarnation, and as long as the opportunity is right, she will have the opportunity to return to heaven again. But what about me? I am just a layman, if I survive the catastrophe, then I can live this life steadily, if I fail...... My soul is gone, I will never be reborn, and my world will be completely quiet, and I won't even have a chance to do it again.

But I don't regret it, because everything I did was worth it.

After dawn, Xue Jianming and his wife returned.

At this time, I had recovered, and Zhou Yan was still meditating when they entered the door because of her internal injuries.

"Lin Zhuo, are you all right?" Uncle Ming asked with concern.

"It's okay, just take a break", I stood up, "Uncle Ming, let's go out for a walk and talk about something." Aunt Ming, Xue Jing still has to sleep for a while before she wakes up, don't go up, arrange a room for my assistant first, let her have a good rest, and then have to go outside to run errands. ”

"Okay, I'll do it!" Aunt Ming said.

Uncle Ming looked at me, "Lin Zhuo, are you physically okay?" ”

"No problem", I smiled, "the town and the formation are broken, you can rest assured." ”

"Well, that's good", Uncle Ming breathed a sigh of relief, "Then let's go outside for a walk." ”

Outside the house, I breathed in the fresh air, and my body was suddenly refreshed. Uncle Ming pointed to a garden in the distance and said that there were not many people in that place, so you could go there to talk.

We went to the garden and found a secluded place to sit, it was a nice place to talk.

"Lin Zhuo, you have a different style from Little Seventh Master when you do things", Uncle Ming looked at me, "Important things, he usually talks about them in the room, but you like to go outside and say, is there anything special about this?" ”

I smiled, "Actually, I'm usually like that, and it's better to talk in the secret room when it matters most." But Xue Jing's matter is more special, so it's better for us to talk outside. ”

"Oh, I see", he nodded.

"I didn't sleep all night yesterday, you're quite tired", I looked at him, "Aunt Ming and Aunt Xiao can rest for a while, you can insist on it again, and go buy a few pieces of jade with my assistant Zhou Yan." ”

"No problem, what do you need?" He asked.

"You don't have to ask, she'll choose, everything is up to her, you just take her with you, and then pay for it", I said, "From tonight onwards, you won't have any more weird dreams." ”

"That's good", he breathed a sigh of relief, "What about Xue Jing?" What's next? ”

"Xue Jing's matter is more complicated, it's hard to go into detail now", I said, "There is one thing I hope you understand, in the next few days, I have to follow her inseparably, protect her, and sometimes have to spend the night with her...... But don't worry, I don't have any other ideas, it's all about getting things done. ”

He frowned, "Spend the night together at night, just the two of you?" ”

"Well," I looked at him calmly, "not necessarily every day, but definitely there will be." ”

He was silent.

"Uncle Ming, you can't trust me?" I asked.

"No, don't be too careful", he glanced at me, "to do big things, you can't stick to these small sections, and spend the night together...... It's nothing. ”

"Xue Jing is the pearl of your palm, it's too normal for you to worry about this", I smiled faintly, "Do you have any scruples, you might as well say it clearly, I'll make a statement first, I have a girlfriend, I don't have any other thoughts about Xue Jing, I do this just to do things." She's in danger at any time in the next few days, and if I rush to her when it happens, it won't be too late, so it's best not to be separated, but don't worry, I know what I'm doing. ”

"You really misunderstood, I'm not afraid of you and Xue Jing......" He shook his head helplessly, "It's just that Xue Jing is a timid child with many problems, she has lived by herself since she was a child, and she doesn't like others to be by her side when she sleeps, so I'm worried about ......"

"Don't worry, she doesn't like me to be close, so I'll keep a little distance from her, anyway, as long as I can keep her safe."

"That's good," he nodded, "this kid has spoiled us, and if anything goes wrong, please bear with me." As long as she is safe, our hearts will be steady, and we don't want anything else. ”

This last sentence is quite meaningful.

In fact, I can understand Uncle Ming, the daughter of a flower and jade, who lives with me as a man with strong blood, and it is strange that he is not worried about being a father. If Xue Jing is really in great danger now, it would be good to say something, but the point is that she doesn't look so serious. In such a situation, Uncle Ming can use people without suspicion, which is very rare.

Therefore, it can be seen from Xue Jianming that the Xue family is resolute and resolute in the face of major rights and wrongs, and such a family will inevitably be prosperous.

"Thank you, Uncle Ming, for trusting me so much as a nobody", I was a little moved, "I won't hide it anymore, and I will tell you if I have something to say." The next few days are the most critical time in Xue Jing's life, if she can survive smoothly, then she can live a normal life in the future; But there's a chance in everything, if she can't get past it......"

"Then I don't blame you", he looked at me, "You can rest assured about this, this is like seeing a doctor, I understand the reason, you let it go, no matter what happens in the end, you just do your best, Uncle Ming won't blame you."

"You don't blame me, I can't forgive myself", I smiled, "Don't worry, this time, Xue Jing and I are living and dying together, if her business can't be done, Lin Zhuo will never come back alive to see you......"
