Surname
When Pei Xilai told Changxia that Li Bai was Cang Xuan's last retreat, Changxia was thinking about what Cang Xuan's retreat was.
Sooner or later, they will have to fight a war with the fairy world. If they win, they will naturally not need a retreat. They will only need one if they lose.
Li Bai is prepared to lose the fight, so that he can save Cang Xuan from the hands of the immortal world...or the thing.
With this clue, Li Bai's origin seems easy to guess, but Chang Xia doesn't know what it is that can make the fairy world let go of Cang Xuan, the big piece of fat meat.
So her explanation to Zuo Qin was vague, only saying that the pear white came from above, without saying what it was specifically.
Zuo Qin should have noticed these flaws and seized on them, only to find out that Chang Xia was just bluffing.
But he didn't.
He believed it easily and even gave more.
Something is affecting his cognition.
This is the experiment Changxia did with that lie.
The experiment was successful, but the results were horrific.
What else can change the perception of Cang Xuan's top fortune teller?
Even if we include the fairy world, in terms of divination, Zuo Qin is at least among the top three, maybe even the first.
It is now early May. The spring is brilliant, the sunlight is mild, and the flowers are in full bloom. Even the Cangfeng Mountain, where sword energy is everywhere, is a sea of colorful flowers.
Changxia felt an inexplicable damp cold spreading from the bottom of his heart.
Ye Shuxing once told her that God loves the world, is it really so?
She looked at the blue sky and bright sun outside the window again, and suddenly felt that this world was unfamiliar to her.
Or, do people really need God's love?
Chang Xia raised her eyes. The sky hung high above her, seemingly eternal. She murmured, "Let me know this... What do you want me to do?"
Her kite on the table was flashing a faint light, with large pieces of text on it. It was sent to her by Zuo Qin, about the origin of Li Bai.
Li Bai is indeed from the upper realm. She is a container specially created by the upper realm to harvest Cang Xuan's luck.
She is as beloved as the protagonist in a storybook, and even monsters would want to pluck out every hair they have for her.
She should have a smooth life in Cang Xuan, and at an appropriate time, take most of Cang Xuan's luck, repair the ladder to heaven, and ascend to heaven.
If Cang Xuan was defeated and had to linger on and beg for mercy, she would be the stepping stone to surrender.
Cang Xuan had complicated attitudes towards those who knew the inside story. Some hated her for aiding and abetting the evil, some pitied her for being helpless but completely unaware of her situation, and some coveted her great luck.
But on the surface, everyone was caring and flattering to Li Bai.
After all, no one knows what the future will be like, but getting a touch of good fortune now will bring real benefits.
During the more than one year that Chang Xia was in a coma, even with Xie Fengxue blocking the way, countless people were sent by the elders of various families to visit Cangfeng Mountain.
Changxia remembered that her master and senior brothers also wanted her to have more contact with Li Bai at the beginning.
Why
Isn't her own luck enough? Chang Xia has always been classified as "blessed by nature" and has always had good luck. Why do the brothers even look down on her for such a small thing?
A dark light flashed in Changxia's eyes.
She remembered Duan Lingya saying that she had changed her life.
She always remembered that little-known surname - Wang.
Her full name was Wang Changxia, and she was born in Wangjia Village, on the border of the Northern and Eastern Borders. The summer she was born in was exceptionally long, and she was born at the tail end of the summer, so her mother gave her this name.
She had a very ordinary background and a very ordinary name. If it weren't for her master, she would have died a very ordinary death.
Ye Shuxing once said that luck is something that is favored by heaven and earth. It is either due to blessings in the previous life, a mission to be shouldered, or immeasurable merits.
If you understand it carefully, it is a very common truth: there is no free lunch in the world.
She has already eaten the lunch, so who paid for it?
Zuo Qin wrote at the end: "It was my idea for you to have a karmic relationship with Li Baishao. After all, whether it succeeds or not, you, my junior sister, will die. And you are too attached to love. If you become too entangled and find out her identity, I'm afraid you will end up in a dead end."
If the fairy world wins, they will sacrifice her to obtain luck and pick fruits. If Cang Xuan wins, Cang Xuan will also kill her to take back the luck.
There is no way for her to survive anywhere.
Changxia sighed. Zuo Qin was right. She couldn't bear to watch Li Bai die.
But how to save her
Changxia would definitely tell him about Tianyi's plot against Zuo Qin, but it didn't matter even if it revealed what she was doing.
Apart from Xie Fengxue, Zuo Qin and her master are the closest people to her in this world, and she can't just watch them fall into the quagmire.
But what Duan Lingya said...
Changxia admitted that she was scared.
It was really Zuo Qin who was afraid of changing her fate. If she told him everything without knowing the truth, the harsh fortune teller with a young face would probably fool her with a few words and then go do some so-called "big things" himself.
She was also afraid that it was not Zuo Qin who changed her fate, which meant that there was still a powerful fortune teller in the dark with unknown position and purpose.
What she feared even more was that they had done everything and protected her well under their wings without any harm.
This would make her feel like she was back in the dark cellar of her childhood.
This time, she didn't want to be the one counting from one to one hundred thousand.
She made up her mind, waved her hand towards the table, and the kite fell into her palm.
Changxia spun the kite in her hand twice and laughed at herself. There was probably no one in the world more greedy than her.
Then she opened the kite and sent a message to Pei Xilai.
"There's a change of plan. I'll take you to Chi Zhouhai tomorrow."
Pei Xilai: ...
I haven’t stayed in Yunting long enough.
Today Li Bai brought him to Ruomu Valley. Ayang gave each of them a piece of licorice to chew on, and they squatted beside him to watch Ayang prepare the medicinal materials.
Pei Xilai waved the kite in his hand towards Li Bai beside him and said, "Are all your senior sisters so capricious?"
Li Bai said seriously, "Then it must be you who made her unhappy."
Senior sister is so nice, she must have her reasons for doing this.
Pei Xilai: Okay, you asked the wrong person.
Li Bai asked A Yang: "Do you want to go out and play with us?"
Ayang put down what he was holding and shook his head: "I haven't finished reading my medical book yet."
Li Bai said, "Come back and see."
A Yang said seriously, "No, if you don't study medicine well, and you get hurt in front of me in the future and I can't save you, I will regret it for the rest of my life."
After saying that, he felt that this was not right: "I didn't mean to say that you would get hurt."
Li Bai waved her hand to show that she didn't care: "Then I'll come back and bring you a gift. I heard that there are sea monsters in Chi Zhou Sea that produce night-shining pearls as big as their heads. I'll bring them back for you."
What's the metaphor for a head so big?
But Ayang obviously didn't care about these things. After all, he was just a teenager. No matter how calm he was, his eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard something new and interesting: "Then I'll wait for you!"
Departure was not a matter of a moment, Li Bai and Pei Xilai stayed until the hour of You before returning.
Li Bai is not able to fly the sword for a long time, so Pei Xi needs to carry her.
Only when they were alone did she notice that Pei Xilai was in a low mood.
"You seem unhappy"
“Hmm…ah.”
Pei Xilai didn't expect that even the children could see it.
He was at a loss for a while, and finally succumbed to Li Bai's clear eyes.
"No, it's just..."
He seemed to be still forming his words.
“It’s just that I didn’t seem to have many friends when I was a kid.”
In fact, he could no longer remember anything about his childhood. His current memory began when Pei Miao picked him up and brought him back to Sanchidao.
Although he has the appearance of an adult, his mind is no different from that of a newborn baby due to amnesia.
Pei Jianshou was obviously not a person who knew how to raise a child, so Pei Xilai spent a long time stumbling alone on the first peak of the Three-foot Road.
He was also abandoned on the mountain by his master, and he was even more miserable than Changxia. He did not have Xie Fengxue to support him, and could only learn about the world from the books in the cave left to him by his family.
The master was away from home all year round, and because of his special status, his fellow disciples did not dare to get close to him. Pei Xilai did not know how to interact with others. Others said that he was cold and aloof, but in fact, that was just a disguise when he was at a loss.
Because I didn’t know what to say or what expression to make, I just kept silent and didn’t make any expression.
This is how he lived for the past few hundred years.
Pei Xilai looked at Li Bai blankly: "So this is what my friends are like."
Li Bai said, "You're actually worried about this! If you had told me earlier, I could have given you a night-shining pearl the size of a head!"
She paused and said, "But it can't be bigger than Ayang's."
Although this person helped her with her homework, she still liked Ayang a little more.
Pei Xilai asked: "Is it so easy for you to make friends?"
Li Bai blinked: "It's not easy, not easy at all."
Then she fell silent.
Even her senior sister and brother Xiaosu didn't know that she had a secret.
She has always lived in kindness, so distinguishing between falsehood and hypocrisy has become a compulsory course for her.
It's more natural than eating and breathing.
For example, although her senior brother treats her very well and loves her very much, she just prefers to be close to her senior sister.
It's an animal instinct.
——
In the southern border, beneath the sacred tree.
Xie Fengxue spread out his palms, and a breath of air lingered in his palms. If someone had been to the fairyland, they would definitely recognize that this was a wisp of fairy air.
The Jianmu trees were majestic and misty, and the melodious music was heard everywhere, but Xie Fengxue was not affected at all.
His gaze fell on the broken part of the ladder—there, unexpectedly, several golden threads appeared, vaguely beginning to connect the two ends of the broken ladder!
He chuckled and waved his hand to disperse the fairy energy in his palm.
"Twelve years, that's really hard to wait."
The monk in wide-sleeved green robe waved his sleeves, turned around, and left this quiet place.
Behind him, among the ancient giant trees, the shadow of a sword suddenly appeared.
Changxia would never have thought that her senior brother's sword, Yi Renhan, which she hadn't seen unsheathed for a long time, was actually placed here by him.
