After watching the news, Ye Xiaochen silently turned off the computer.

Xiaoya asked, "Aren't you going to keep watching?" ”

"There's nothing to see, that's the end of today's mission." Ye Xiaochen sat on the chair, stretched comfortably, then got up, walked to the counter and ordered a glass of grape juice. In a few moments, the robot butler immediately delivered the freshly made grape juice to him.

"I'm curious, what kind of people your parents are to be able to build such a high-end villa." Xiao Ya closed the English book in her hand, "In the words of the earthlings, it takes a lot of money to build such a villa and purchase these furniture, equipment and books. Moreover, judging from the current level of science and technology on the earth, it is impossible to create a virtual reality system similar to the cultivation room. ”

Ye Xiaochen shook his head: "I don't know, what my master said at the beginning was that this was where my parents used to live." Later they went far away, so the place has not been used for a while. But judging by the money they've saved, they should be pretty good people. ”

"It's really boring to learn this so-called English here every day. How did you manage to hold on to it? ”

"I'm forcing myself to learn." Ye Xiaochen replied indifferently, took a sip of grape juice, and showed an expression of enjoyment, "There's no way, in order to improve my knowledge, I can only keep learning these things." At that time, I thought that the more things I mastered, the smoother my path would be. So at that time, I was studying these things while I was cultivating hard, and I tried to master them all in the shortest possible time. Not only the language, but also the application of information technology and science and technology, I have to master it one step ahead of others. ”

Xiaoya listened to him silently, and with her experience, she couldn't help but be a little surprised. These days, she has also read the biographies of some famous people, including many world-famous celebrities. It's just that none of them can achieve the level of Ye Xiaochen, who is already proficient in seven Chinese languages at a young age, becoming the world's top hacker, and even reaching the point where they can easily steal state secrets. While learning knowledge, he also cultivated his own martial arts to the pinnacle of human beings. For that alone, no teenager of her age could match.

While surprised, she also felt a little sorry for Ye Xiaochen.

Let me ask, what supports a minor child to get to this point, and how does he withstand these inhuman tribulations and unbearable pressures?

Xiaoya's strength can reach that point, and she is naturally extremely smart. But now in the face of the language of English, she feels difficult for a long time. And Ye Xiaochen directly learned seven different languages, how did he do it?

"Why don't we go out for a walk." Ye Xiaochen suddenly said, "The right should be to scatter your heart." ”

Xiaoya has never refuted Ye Xiaochen's words, and even during this time, she is used to listening to Ye Xiaochen's words. Pretty much the former did whatever she asked her to do, including things like studying, fighting, and killing. After staying in the villa for such a long time, even if she is calm-hearted, she can't help but feel a little bored. Ye Xiaochen proposed to go out for a walk at this time, so she naturally would not have any opinions.

Before the two went out, they specially notified Wuying, who was watching TV in the living room.

"Want to go out for a walk? Okay, you can go wherever you want, for as long as you want. If you want to come back, just give me a call in advance. Shadowless stared at the news on the TV and said without looking back, "Also, remember to keep your ID cards safe." ”

A year ago, Ye Xiaochen went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get an ID card for Xiaoya, and the name written on the ID card was "Ye Xiaoya". It looks like this, Xiaoya is like Ye Xiaochen's sister. After saying hello, Ye Xiaochen and Xiaoya immediately went out and unlocked the enchantment. After the two of them left the range of the enchantment, the enchantment immediately opened again, and the entire villa re-entered the invisible state.

"Where are we going now?"

Ye Xiaochen: "Since it's a distraction, let's just take a walk." ”

The two of them walked slowly on the forest island, and when they reached the road, it was almost noon. Ye Xiaochen took out his mobile phone, opened the taxi software and called a taxi, and took Xiaoya to the capital city in this way.

Instead of going to the noisy areas of the center of the capital, they chose the tourist attractions of the capital region. Their purpose is to relax, and since this is the case, the place with a beautiful scenery has become the best choice for them. They came to the vicinity of an artificial lake, the water of which is extremely clear, and the nature of the lake is integrated with the surrounding mountains, which is magnificent. At a glance at the large lawn on the north shore of the lake, people feel that the clear water of the lake seems to be unfathomable and extremely calm. The surrounding mountains and lakes are integrated into one, as if they can wash people's souls, and people are extremely fascinated.

"It's really beautiful here." A pleasant look appeared on Xiao Ya's face, "I didn't expect that in the political center of mankind, there would be such a beautiful place." ”

"Yes, the environmental governance here is still very good. At least it's much better than the salt marshes abroad. Ye Xiaochen said, "Actually, every time I'm not in a good mood, I come to a place like this." A lot of times just by being here, my mind can be calm. ”

Xiaoya nodded in agreement and asked, "What's the name of this lake?" ”

"Forget the Lake of Worries." Ye Xiaochen replied, "This is also a relatively well-preserved lake in China, at least now the Chinese people are getting better and better at controlling pollution." I think it's good to come here once in a while to be quiet after all the thrilling and exciting times. But it's really boring to come alone. ”

"Why is this called the Lake of Forgotten Sorrows, and does it have any special meaning?"

Ye Xiaochen thought for a while and said: "I remember that there seems to be such a legend in Huaxia, people in this world will always have a lot of troubles, and the legend has such a lake. Legend has it that if you drink the water from this lake, you will be able to forget all your worries and sorrows, and you will be freed from the sea of suffering. ”

Xiaoya: "That sounds fake. ”

"Please, this is just a Chinese folklore, you won't take it for granted that this is true, right?" Ye Xiaochen smiled, "I think, even if this legend is true, it is estimated that not many people want to drink the water of this lake, even if it is clean." ”

Xiaoya asked curiously, "Why?" People here only live for a few decades, isn't it a good thing to forget about the pain? ”

"Legend has it that drinking water from the lake is not only about forgetting sorrow and pain, but also about forgetting one's emotions and discarding the most important part of one's memory." Ye Xiaochen said, his expression suddenly became a little melancholy, not at all like the look that a fourteen-year-old boy should have, "Think about it yourself, if you have been with someone for a long time, and your relationship is so deep, suddenly let you forget that person, after all, you will never meet him again, are you willing?" ”

Xiao Ya looked a little confused when he asked this, she shook her head and said, "I don't know, I haven't experienced much of what you said." ”

"It's normal that you don't know, anyway, I don't want to." Ye Xiaochen took out the plastic water cup, poured a big sip, and then said: "Although people live in this world with pain, I remember that who seems to have said that pain is the main theme of life. Nine times out of ten, life is not as expected, and many people have dreams or want to do a lot of things when they are young. But when they grow up, they will find that life is not as perfect as they imagined, and there are basically not many things they want to do that they can accomplish. Some succeeded, some didn't. And those who succeed are bound to suffer a lot. In a sense, it's these pains that make them grow. You're older than me, and I don't know if you've ever experienced it. ”

Xiaoya was stunned when she heard this, and she didn't know how to answer Ye Xiaochen's question. But it is indeed as Ye Xiaochen said, the purpose of her life is to ask her mother's origin power to cling to her, so as to be free. For this reason, she continued to cultivate hard, thinking that she was strong enough to achieve her goal after obtaining the Eternal Night Demon Crystal. However, the truth was indeed not as she expected, not only did she not get the Eternal Night Demon Crystal, but she was also robbed of her power by the Holy Mother of Ice and Darkness, and she was exiled to this strange planet to survive.

"However, after all, many people do not like to suffer pain, and it is not a good thing to live simply and happily in this world."

"What you say actually makes sense, after all, this is also the dream of many people. There are two gifts from God to mankind, one is life, and the other is emotion. While drinking the water of the lake of forgetfulness, it will also make people forget their own emotions. Ye Xiaochen said, "Do you know? My master used to say that even if you have power, you will never be able to annihilate your emotions, let alone become like those who have interests, and abandon your relatives and emotions for the sake of profit. Suffering is a tempering of human beings, and once there is no suffering, human beings will become content with the status quo, do not want to make progress, never make any progress, and finally go to destruction. ”

Ye Xiaochen took another sip of water and continued: "So, even if it is the water of the Forget Worry Lake, it really has an effect. But with such side effects, many people will not choose it. Because this is undoubtedly another form of suffering for them. If you don't feel pain, you become the walking dead. Rather than relying on external objects to forget the pain, it is better to overcome it yourself. ”
