Chapter 9: The Dilemma
"What the hell is going on?" the woman was completely confused. Seeing that her daughter's body was naked, she didn't know if she should go and get a set of clothes. But she didn't move at all, and now she was most concerned about what had happened to her daughter, whether it was good or bad? She was a calm person, and she understood that the more urgent the situation, the more she had to make a judgment before deciding what action to take. She felt that what had happened to her daughter was not bad, after all, the change seemed to be caused mainly by a sudden flame, and although the flames caused great damage to the surrounding environment, it did not harm the mother and daughter. For the Fire Clan, the flame is the most sacred, and the scene in front of her, the woman's heart is indeed willing to prefer it is a good thing. But for some reason, she always felt very depressed, extremely depressed, as if she was losing something very important now. Darkly, she felt that this thing was very close to her, very important to her, but she didn't know what she was losing. Moreover, even if this purple fire was supposed to bring any benefits to the Fire Clan, could her daughter, who was naturally weak and unable to refine fire like herself, withstand it?
"Is something going to happen to my daughter...... What does the purple fire represent? Is it evil? Is this fire going to bring disaster? Bringing disaster to my daughter, she is going to die or lose something?Bringing disaster to me? Bringing ...... to the Fire Clan?" "As a mother's strength, she can silently bear the great changes in her family, but after all, she herself is just a weak woman who can't even refine fire, and she is also the one with the lowest individual strength in the Fire Clan. Now she has nothing to do but think crankily in worry, "Fire God bless, if there is really something bad, then let me bear it alone!"
At this moment, she really felt that she was too small. Even if she wanted to bear it herself, she could only pray to God. The woman felt that she should do something now, but what she saw in front of her, she had never heard of it, and she had no idea what she should do. She can't practice, so she has been studying since she was a child, and she thought that she was already very knowledgeable in the Fire Clan, but now she suddenly found that she was so ignorant. Now, what should I do, and what can I do?
Should we find a way to reduce or enhance the purple fire, or should we maintain balance as much as possible? The woman was so anxious that she suddenly couldn't help coughing. She could feel herself coughing up a liquid, probably blood, she guessed. But she didn't feel the pain, because now her heart was all on her daughter. Now the little girl has been completely devoured by the purple fire. The purple fire took the little girl's body as the core and wrapped it into an oval ball. The ellipsoidal purple flame now looks like a cocoon, and the figure of the little girl has become more and more blurred as the purple consciousness on the cocoon continues to increase. The woman always remained motionless, because theoretically, as long as she moved now, no matter what she did, the possibility of doing it wrong was far greater than doing it right. So, she judged that what she could do now, and perhaps the most important thing to do, was to stand motionless and not disrupt the balance of the energy flow around her. Having made up her mind, her mood finally stabilized a little. Although she is just a weak woman without any cultivation, she is now a mother, and she has decided that even if she survives, she will die as a zombie and cannot fall.
She knew almost nothing about what was happening, but it was not difficult for her to judge that her daughter's situation was dangerous. The woman's name is Duanmu Xin, and she only knows that Duanmu and Shangguan are the two families, and her closest person may be the only one left with this daughter, so although she also knows that the impact of her movement on her daughter may be insignificant, she is still determined to do this, because she really can't afford to gamble. It's just that she suddenly thought that if she really died because of this, and if her death was valuable, it would be fine, but if she died in vain, what should her daughter do? The woman's mind has always been sentimental, even if Duanmuxin has made a decision, her heart is still very chaotic. It's just that since she has already made a decision, she simply can't figure it out and doesn't think about it, and the answer she gave herself is, what the result is, just leave it to God.
However, just when she was calming down again, her face suddenly turned completely pale. has already decided, and her heart of concern for her daughter is finally relieved. Under such circumstances, she finally realized her situation. She didn't have her own first-order cultivation, so it could be said that she didn't have the slightest foundation for refining fire, but now she was only one step away from her daughter wrapped in purple fire, and she was still safe and sound. Before, she was just blindly worried about her daughter's departure, but now she suddenly thought of her situation, but she finally subconsciously felt the change in herself. This feeling made her almost faint.
Duanmu Xin could feel the blood she had coughed up slowly sliding down her body, but she felt that the blood was not too much of a barrier when she felt it sliding down. According to common sense, the blood is already viscous, and it should be much slower to slide down due to the barrier of clothing. Moreover, with such a high temperature of purple fire in front of her, why did this blood still lose water and coagulate? Feeling the blood sliding down her body, she felt a little similar to the water dripping on her body after taking a bath. Thinking of the previous scene where her daughter was naked, she completely woke up. This awakening made her suddenly step into an embarrassing situation where she couldn't choose at all. There was a choice, but she really couldn't choose.
The mother and daughter wear ordinary clothes every day, and such materials can't withstand the high temperature of Zihuo. She didn't care anymore why she was so close to Zihuo, and she didn't care why the blood and moisture that flowed out were not steamed away, she only knew that she was absolutely naked like her daughter before. The daughter is just a five-year-old child, and now her body is completely wrapped in a purple fire cocoon. But what about yourself? There is no purple fire in front of you. In other words, I am standing here naked now...... And here, after previous changes, it has become an open field, without any shelter.
The incomparably strong sense of shame made her want to find a crack in the ground to drill, but even if there was a crack in the ground, could she drill it? Drilling into the crack in the ground meant that she had to move. Any energy is dangerous, not to mention such a high degree of cohesion here, if you move yourself, it is possible to upset the balance, causing your daughter to fall into danger and even die. Now she hates it so much, hates why God doesn't let that purple fire burn her to death. Duanmu Xin knew that because there was no one else living around, no one had arrived until now. However, she knew better that this was by no means a paradise, and the movement just now was so big, and there were definitely many people on their way to it now. Those people, out of good intentions, came to check on the accident and to help.
A large group of people could arrive at any time, and he, the pearl of the Duanmu family, the daughter-in-law of the Shangguan family, the wife of the head of the Huoyun clan, and the mother of a five-year-old daughter, were now standing naked on this open ground. It only took less than a minute for her to go home and put on a fire-resistant suit for a flame cultivator, but to wear it, she needed to gamble with her daughter's life......
If she was just an ordinary woman and an ordinary mother of the Fire Clan, then even if she would really be looked at by the people who might be coming, it would be nothing compared to her daughter's safety. It's a pity that there is no if, behind the identity of the daughter and daughter-in-law is the glory of the two families that have been passed down for countless years, and the identity of the Führer's wife, the current first lady of the Fire Clan, the glory and pressure behind it are even more indescribable. When the first two identities and the last one are combined, the pressure is so great that it is beyond measure.
"Vulcan, why did you do this to me?!" The blood in the woman's heart flowed, and no one was at fault in this matter, but the heavens wanted to joke with her. She really would rather die than be in such a situation. Because, she really doesn't have the courage to choose, but not to choose is a kind of choice in itself, and time can't stay for her.
I can't move, maybe the movement here is not as big as I thought, no one is paying attention to it, after all, this time is a special time; maybe, not only is there a vision here, things here are happening everywhere now, and other people can't take care of it at all; maybe, my daughter can turn the corner and return to normal before the others arrive. But, but ...... She knew in her heart that these were just excuses for self-deception.
I should go and get dressed immediately, I have a great deal of confidence that it will not affect my daughter, after all, how much impact can my actions as an ordinary person have on the surrounding fire elements? However, is he really an ordinary person? With such a high temperature, the terrain has been changed, but he is still fine. That's my own daughter, we are directly connected by blood, and the change of my daughter may be related to my own existence. Neither she nor her daughter were injured by Zihuo, and it is absolutely impossible to say that there is no connection between them, but she doesn't know what kind of connection this connection is. What will be the impact of staying here or leaving now? If so, what will be the consequences? Maybe if you move, your energy will be out of balance and run wild, and your daughter will be burned to death by the purple fire immediately, and maybe you will get dressed and come back in time, and it won't cause any serious consequences. In this way, it is really a matter of whether leaving to get dressed on one's own will have disastrous consequences.
Fifty-fifty percent of the choice, any choice has a fifty percent chance of unacceptable consequences. If she was just an ordinary woman, she would never allow that kind of thing to happen, no matter her heart or her identity, and on the other hand, she was her own daughter, she was just five years old, and she was the only incense burner in Shangguan and Duanmu......
Obviously, there is a choice, but there is no way to choose at all, and there is no way to escape this choice, or even delay it. The pain of this choice made Duanmu Xin feel powerless, and it was better to live to make this choice than to die for a hundred and not have a choice. However, she is not a monk, and there is no way to kill herself without moving, and even if she does, it is more likely that suicide will cause a reiki riot.
