Xia Xiao was indeed taller, from the normal 1.7 meters to 1.8 meters, finally fulfilling Xia Xiao's wish in his previous life. His body also became stronger, not like a human, but like a beast. Xia Xiao also experienced the feeling of being a wild beast, but the third eye between his eyebrows made it difficult for him to accept.
Although Xia Xiao didn't look in the mirror or reach out to touch it, he could feel an eye on his forehead. The eye, which was longer than an ordinary eye, had a strong presence and was always responding to Xia Xiao, constantly feeding back information. It made Xia Xiao see many ugly faces in his memory, which he couldn't see clearly at the time, but now appeared one by one.
It seems that this eye has great power, but Xia Xiao's first reaction was not to develop it excitedly, but to be at a loss. In mythology, there are many people with three eyes, and there is even a three-eyed country, but the most famous one is Yang Jian, the True Lord of Erlang. But his eye is the eye of heaven, the majesty of God, and his thing is only related to the devil, so it suddenly lost its class, and no one will envy it, and it will only scare children.
What would Ah Zhu think if he saw himself now? Xia Xiao frowned, propped himself up and sat up, looking at his master anxiously.
"Master, why do I have an eye?"
"I don't know, but if you're going to walk such a long distance alone, it wouldn't be a bad thing to have an extra pair of eyes. It can help you keep an eye on your surroundings."
"Then how can I meet people?"
"You little brat, you're not afraid of falling into the devil's way, but you're afraid of having an eye?"
"Beasts with kind hearts and fierce faces are targeted by others, but people with vicious hearts and tender faces can blend into the crowd effortlessly. It's the same principle. And... I'm afraid of scaring Ah Zhu."
"As long as you are Xia Xiao, no matter what you become, you can't scare her."
Xia Xiao understood the reason, but just as he was about to refute, Qing Xunzi said:
"Try using your vitality and demonic energy first. Once you have no problems with it, it will become your sixth power."
Even though he was extremely anxious, Xia Xiao still clenched his fists and swung them. When he punched, there was a roar of great vitality, and then there was a surge of demonic energy. Although it was not included in the vitality, it could be released along with it, with extraordinary power.
Compared to the previous chaos, Xia Xiao didn't need to pay so much attention now, because the two trees did not interfere with each other, and they could be blessed together under his command, which was the result he wanted most. The spirit beast would no longer be harassed by the evil spirit, and Xiaoyu could finally sleep well.
The carriage did not move at all under Xia Xiao's punch, but the latter's excitement soon passed, and Xia Xiao's heart sank. He tried to close the third eye between his eyebrows, but he could not stop the feedback from appearing in his mind. He looked at Qing Xunzi, and the scene in front of him began to change. He saw that he was full of righteousness, returning to the heavens and earth, and accompanied by golden dragons and cranes. Not to mention this life, even in the next life, he is a very blessed person. But this life is too hard, and I don't know if God will give him a chance to break through the last shackles.
If this eye could see through a person's character, Xia Xiao wouldn't mind, but he looked at his hand, which was covered in blood and had carried a beam, so it had some auspicious light. But the mixture of the two made it look neither fish nor fowl.
"If you don't want to use it, just turn it off."
Qing Xunzi's answer seemed a little late. Xia Xiao was shaking his head when a mirror appeared in front of him.
Huh?
Xia Xiao frowned, but where were his eyes? His eyes suddenly focused, and the feedback began to appear again.
At this moment, Xia Xiao felt that the third eye that had never been closed appeared quietly with blood, like a demon's finger, slashing down his forehead, bringing coldness and a few traces of pain, giving him this ability. But he couldn't close his eyes, was it because he had no eyelids? Xia Xiao felt that it was possible, because the eye on his forehead really had no eyelids, so he could only hide it, but wouldn't closing it be the same as closing the eye?
Regardless of their personalities, gods all grow in accordance with human aesthetics, while demons are destined to be ugly. Xia Xiao felt that everyone thought so, but he had once thought that it represented lust? A demon of lust would never be ugly, but the third eye that grew at this time proved that he had thought too much. Demons are ugly, and Hei Huang is an accident.
Through the mirror, Xia Xiao saw this eye for the first time. It was very thin and long, and it was a little inconsistent with the two eyes below it. The eyeball was also oval and long, which was a little strange. And this eye had no lens, only a dark color like hell, and it was not a good thing at first glance. The black veins around the eye made it a little disgusting, as if this eye was taken from the face of another monster and placed here.
The self in this eye constantly travels through the light that alternates between light and dark. Although there is still more light, the dark colors are very deep and annoying, but they are real and cannot be escaped. Xia Xiao sees that he is a very ordinary person, neither good nor bad. If everything he does at this moment is for the sake of the people of the world rather than to live up to his predecessors, it will not be like this. But he is very real, and there are many such people in the world.
For many people, they would do good deeds that are easy to do, which is also considered to accumulate some merit for themselves. But because of impulse and selfishness, people will hurt others directly or indirectly. However, minor injuries are not enough to be called sins, and they will not be sent to a deep hell. But Xia Xiao once killed 200,000 people, he is a real executioner!
Xia Xiao's head suddenly fell down, and when he raised it up, his third eye had retracted.
He looked the same as usual in the mirror, but Xia Xiao always felt that the third eye was a little weird. He was a man who had killed 200,000 people. Logically, the light in his body should be pure black, but unexpectedly, there were more bright colors. Could it be that he knew that the death of Nan Shang's Shenwei Legion was related to Hei Huang?
His fingers kept tapping his forehead. Could it be that in addition to judging people's good and evil, it could also see through the true and false nature of things? If so, wouldn't Xia Xiao have another powerful cheat?
When he laughed foolishly, Qing Xunzi scolded him angrily:
"You were so worried just now, are you feeling better now?"
“As long as it can be opened and closed freely.”
Xia Xiao didn't hate this eye, he was just afraid that he couldn't close it and it would always be on his forehead. But now that he had mastered the method, why should he worry? Since he chose the magic path, he would no longer reject its power. Xia Xiao was not a noble person, he was very realistic.
After trying several more times in front of the mirror, Xia Xiao's face turned pale after each successful attempt. Then, the water energy spread throughout his body. After cleaning his body, he put on a clean robe made of energy and prepared to leave.
Qing Xunzi smiled. Xia Xiao wanted to have all the tricks in his body to catch the enemy off guard, but he was still too young. There were still many things he needed to pay attention to in the future. However, he was immersed in joy now, so as his master, he would not disturb him. In the future, he would list the precautions one by one and tell them to Xia Xiao as a gift to him.
Because of his height, Xia Xiao saw things from a different angle than usual. This new height made him look around, secretly happy. As long as the demonic energy did not affect his thinking, and the things he saw did not become a mass of living energy as it did at the beginning, he would be able to handle it himself even without the relic in the future. This was a good thing, but Xia Xiao did not know if Ah Zhu would be afraid of him, so he stood outside the carriage and hesitated to go in.
If he had other abilities, he would have told Ah Zhu happily to make him happy. But the power brought by the magic itself would make people wear tinted glasses, so Xia Xiao hesitated for a long time and was finally discovered by Ah Zhu who opened the window. She had been waiting for Xia Xiao for two days, and when she saw him, the resentful young wife's expression suddenly became cheerful.
"Successful?"
Ah Zhu was grinning with anticipation in her eyes. Seeing Xia Xiao didn't come in, she ran out. She looked at Xia Xiao and nodded without saying anything. She asked curiously:
"What's wrong?"
"I've changed a bit."
Ah Zhu landed on the ground and stood in front of Xia Xiao. She easily noticed his changes. Being taller is a good thing, being shorter is also okay. Ah Zhu felt that liking someone had nothing to do with height. It was okay even if Xia Xiao was shorter than her. But this was not the change Xia Xiao was talking about. Ah Zhu went to look for him again, pinched his arm, and pulled his clothes, but found nothing new.
Standing in front of Xia Xiao, Ah Zhu stood on tiptoe to see how tall Xia Xiao was now, and asked:
"Has anything bad changed? You don't seem happy."
"I have an extra eye."
Xia Xiao felt that hiding it was not a solution, so he had to tell her. But Ah Zhu, this half-baked person, asked if he had a fourth eye. Xia Xiao was stunned for a moment. A fourth eye? Then the third one must be...
When he looked helpless, Azhu laughed and pointed at his butt.
"Don't be ridiculous. If I had corns on my feet, wouldn't I be the man with a hundred eyes?"
“Yes…”
Xia Xiao pulled Ah Zhu back to the carriage, his face somewhat solemn. This was not a good thing after all. He might never be able to enter the room in the academy's small white building again, and the peach blossoms all over the mountain would only bloom in his memory. A moment of sadness made Xia Xiao's face look bad, and Ah Zhu stopped joking, but hugged him and comforted him:
"It's okay, don't worry, you are still you."
"Then do you want to see it?"
"Of course I have to watch it!"
Ah Zhu was mentally prepared. Even if Xia Xiao turned into a ghost, she would not be afraid. This was her duty as Xia Xiao's girlfriend. Others would be fine, but if she panicked too much, Xia Xiao would be very disappointed and even blame herself. Ah Zhu gradually understood Xia Xiao very well. After he said "start", some changes appeared on his forehead.
A drop of dark red blood came from nowhere. It slid down like a knife, cutting the skin. The skin moved to the left and right, piling up several layers of wrinkles. The dark veins entangled like snakes, as if they were about to break through the skin. Among them, an oval dark pupil gradually took on a deep color, as if waking up from a deep sleep, staring straight at Ah Zhu, causing him to tremble subconsciously.
Ah Zhu was about to explain that she wasn't scared, but just a little cold because she didn't close the window. But Xia Xiao looked at her as if he had never seen her before and was distracted. He seemed to have seen something mysterious, and Ah Zhu called his name and waved in front of him, but it didn't wake him up.
This is the charm of this magic eye. Xia Xiao feels that he will use it more and more in the future.
