[Comprehensive] I, the second generation of God, have a bad fate

"But, I think I can help you!"

As long as it can help him and make him relax, Xia You is willing to do anything.

At this moment, Huang's eyes melted like ice and snow into a pool of spring water, full of tenderness.

Xia You has seen his indifferent smiles, disdainful smiles, calm smiles, and smiles that don't reach his eyes... This is the first time I've seen such a gentle smile from the heart.

"No, these things have nothing to do with you, you shouldn't be involved, and there's nothing you can do about it."

Xia You's eyes darkened slightly, and her mood became depressed, "Do you think my strength is still far behind?"

The second half of the sentence is the key point, she can't do anything.

"However, as long as it is within my ability, I will definitely do it seriously."

Even if it's just a little thing, she hopes that she can help him, instead of asking him for help in a panic every time she encounters a problem.

"No need." Huang shook his head with a smile, his expression was calm, and he saw Xia You's starry eyes dimmed again, before he spoke again, "If there is really anything you need to do, it is to ensure your own safety. "

"In this world, I can't be by your side all the time, so when there is no me, you have to pay attention to your own safety, and don't trust others so easily like today."

"Take care of yourself, that's my biggest help."

"I'm not looking down on you for being weak." He blinked, and smiled at her suddenly, his serious brows and eyes showed an unprecedented tenderness, "I don't want you to get involved in such dirty and complicated things. "

"Xia You, you are my selfishness, do you understand?"

It has nothing to do with it, just because the girl in front of him is one of the few people he cares about, so out of selfishness, he doesn't want anything to happen to her.

That's it.

"As long as you're okay, I won't have any worries."

Only when the people he cares about live a happy and peaceful life, can he face all the difficult things in the future with peace of mind.If even she is drifting in the waves of the abyss, how can he, who is in the center of the vortex, not be flustered?

Xia You stared at him blankly for a long time, then suddenly the tip of her nose became sore, she quickly lowered her head, her eyes were hot.

She couldn't say a word, but felt unprecedented sadness and melancholy in her heart. She was moved by Huang's tenderness and care, but also blamed herself for not being able to help the other party.

"There's no need to blame yourself." Huang sighed lightly, stretched out his hand to caress her head, and stroked her soft long hair one by one.

"If you really got involved because of me, then I'd be damning myself."

"Okay... what's there to cry about?" Hearing the sobs she was trying to hold back, Huang's tone was filled with disapproval and seriousness, but the movements of his hands became gentler, "This matter Although it's tricky, don't you still believe in my strength?"

Xia You shook her head, he was simply the most powerful person she had ever seen.

"Then are you in danger?"

"of course not."

Seeing Huang's calm and confident appearance, Xia You breathed a sigh of relief, and still whispered: "But... only you..."

She is still worried.

"No." Huang shook his head, and at this time his expression returned to his usual serious and calm appearance, as if everything was under control, "I'm just waiting for a suitable opportunity, I observe fate in the dream , everything in the future has already been determined, just wait patiently."

"So you don't have to worry, those chosen by the stream of fate will always wake up."

Although he is still only a young man of the same size as Xia You, in another ten years, with his talent, he will have enough power to truly subvert the two worlds of yin and yang.

Now, it is only waiting for him to use his own insight to discover the corruption and crisis under the prosperous appearance of the capital.

*****

It has been rainy for three consecutive days, and this not-so-warm winter day has become even colder.

It's just that there is no weather forecast in this era, otherwise Xia You would know that such rain would fall for seven days and seven nights.After a long time, the people of Heianjing talked about the winter rain this year, and they all said that it was Yuzao crying for the loss of his lover.

But neither the continuous rain nor the unavailable priestesses could hinder the progress of the New Year festival in Kyoto.

Xia You only knew that on the night of the sacrifice, a maiden named Zhenji in Yin Yang Liao met a monster when she was patrolling outside the city to defend the capital, and unfortunately died.

The holidays in modern times are very scattered, and there are about half a month of small holidays during the winter vacation from Christmas to New Year.

For the past two days, Xia You had to temporarily put aside her family in another world and stay in the mountains.

Although it is the New Year, there is no festive atmosphere in the ghost town, and all the monsters are still immersed in anger and hostility towards the conspiracy in Kyoto.

In the palace, Nadeko's physical condition became more and more critical.

She had been in a coma for three full days, and Yuzao stayed by his wife's side all night without sleep.With the passage of time, Xia You could feel the hope in his eyes being extinguished bit by bit. The deep and hollow eyes combined with the haggard face made people feel more and more trembling.

It seemed that in his heart, a fire of hatred was brewing.

Xia You put most of her energy on the twin brothers and sisters who were just born a few days ago. The monsters in the ghost town didn't have much experience in taking care of babies, so Xia You didn't dare to hand over the children to them casually.

The people who live in the palace are all men with heavy sweats, Yuzao is a father for the first time, Xia You is also an inexperienced unmarried girl, a group of people are worried about the two children.

Jiu Tun finally couldn't take it anymore, and specially invited Gu Huo Niao from the Tengu clan near Heiye Mountain to help guide and take care of the children.

With the correct guidance, a group of big men finally stopped being in a hurry.Fortunately, Yuyi and Aika are also very obedient, and they can sleep obediently in Xia You's arms without the caresses of Guhuo Niao and Yuzao.

On this day, after putting the two children who had just finished breastfeeding into the crib specially brought from modern times, Xia You just had free time to go back to the house to sort out the medicinal materials.

Shuten arranged her room in Ibaraki's yard, which was very close, and all the utensils inside were also available.

Although the medicine fields were destroyed, many herbs were still usable. Xia You felt sorry for these herbs being wasted, so she deliberately picked out the intact ones and planned to save them for future use.

Jishen is a monster who is proficient in medicine. After seeing Nadeko in normal times, he often runs to her house to help clean up the herbs.

The God of Earth has blue-gray long hair and wears an ordinary and simple gown. Although he is busy working in the medicine field every day, he is quite a handsome and knowledgeable monster.

Xia You mentioned Nadeshiko's illness to him, and Earth God put on a regretful expression, shook his head and sighed: "Although she was not really injured by the punishment of heaven, she was also affected by that power. In addition She has just given birth, and she is still two half-demon children, almost exhausting all her strength..."

"Nadeko's body has been seriously injured. I have used the best herbs to heal her, but it seems that the effect is very little."

Earth God sorted out the medicinal materials, paused slightly, and continued: "In these three days, if she can't wake up again, then I have no way to recover."

"Poor two newly born children..." Mentioning Yuyi and Aika, a gleam of pity flashed in the eyes of the Earth God.

Hearing this, Xia You subconsciously grasped the delicate herb in her hand.

From the tone of the Earth God, he obviously didn't have too much hope for Nadeshiko to wake up.

Think about it, even though Nadeshiko is a priestess, she is still a human body. Is there such a thing as a drip in this era, how can I keep my body getting enough nutrition to support me when I am in a coma?

If this continues... Can Yuzao really accept such an ending?

Xia You didn't dare to continue thinking about it, she couldn't help knocking a wooden box beside the table while her thoughts were complicated, and the crisp sound of landing immediately attracted the attention of the Earth God.

"My lord, is this your item? It should be stored properly so that it will not be broken."

"Ah... Thank you." Xia You came back to her senses, took the wooden box from the other party's hand, nodded and smiled at him.

Looking down at the familiar wooden box in her hand, Xia You just remembered that it seemed to be a thank you gift from Nuliang Huapiao two days ago.

It has been placed on the table since I came back, and I almost forgot that there is such an object.

She was about to put the box on the shelf, but found that the Earth God's eyes were staring straight at the wooden box, his eyes were quite strange.

"What's wrong with you? Is there something wrong?"

"Ah... no, no, my lord." The Earth God withdrew his blunt gaze, lowered his head and said respectfully, "I am a monster who attends to precious medicinal herbs, and I have a keen intuition for such strange things since I was a child. Just now... I always feel that the contents of that box are extraordinary."

The implication is that he was born full of treasure hunting skills, and what Xia You put in the box was a good thing.

"Since it is an extraordinary product, my lord should put it away carefully." The Earth God told her aloud.

This reminded Xia You that she still doesn't know what Nuliang Huapiao gave her.

Thinking of this, she opened the wooden box and took out the irregular object that looked like white jade, and asked, "Isn't it ordinary? Does Mr. Earth God know what this white stone is?"

Earth God couldn't help but obeyed the order and leaned over to look carefully, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he said with a look of astonishment: "Human, mermaid bone? Where did your lord get this thing?"

Hearing this, Xia You's face suddenly changed.

"What? You said it was a mermaid bone? Is it really a mermaid bone?"

Earth God was taken aback by her being more excited than himself, nodded and said: "When my father was still alive, he got a small piece of mermaid bone by chance. He ground the mermaid bone into bone meal and watered the medicine fields to cultivate The medicinal herbs produced are much stronger than ordinary medicinal herbs."

This is what their family relies on for survival.

"Although my father's mermaid bone is only the size of a fingernail and far smaller than yours, I will never admit it wrong."

Xia You hummed in his head, his body trembled slightly involuntarily, and he stayed where he was.

She really couldn't believe that what she had been looking for for so long had appeared in front of her so easily at this moment.

And Nuliang Huapiao is willing to give her such a precious mermaid bone as a gift!

Holding the mermaid bone tightly in her hands, tears welled up in her eyes, and she almost couldn't complete her words with excitement, "Yes... Yes, it's saved...!"

Natsume Takashi's weird terminal illness is finally cured!

In the future, he can live a healthy life, fall in love and get married like ordinary people, and pursue his ideals without worries.

She must tell him the news immediately!

Seeing Xia Youxi looking out, Earth God couldn't hide surprise and relief in his eyes, he sighed with joy and said, "Yes, we are saved, with this mermaid bone, Nadeko will be saved !"

After the words fell, Xia You was startled for a moment.

"I didn't expect that in the dark, there is no unparalleled road." The God of Earth looked at the mermaid bone, and couldn't help but burst into a happy smile.

Xia You unconsciously clenched the mermaid bone, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and after a while, she took a deep breath before slowly asking: "Mr. Earth God, is this mermaid bone...enough to save Nadeshiko?"

There was an imperceptible tremor in her words.

Don't panic, maybe both Nadeko and Takashi Natsume have been saved?

Earth God smiled and nodded, "don't worry, my lord. Although the weight of this mermaid bone is not much, it can definitely hold her alive. After Nadeshiko wakes up, I will serve it with the decoction I carefully prepared. It will take a year and a half to recover slowly.”

The implication is that the weight of this mermaid bone is not enough just to save Nadeko.

Xia You's heart fell to the bottom in an instant.

"I..." Her lips moved slightly, but it was as if a lump was stuck in her throat, and she couldn't utter a single word. She could only hold the mermaid bone tightly, her fingertips were blue and white, as if she wanted to crush it.

"My lord, are you okay?" Earth God noticed her abnormal mood, but only thought Xia You was too excited.

After all, these days, she has been frowning because of Nadeko's illness.

At this moment, Xia You's heart was tormented as if it was being put in a frying pan.

The piece of mermaid bone in her hand is the miraculous thing she has been looking for that can heal Natsume Takashi, and it is hard to find.With the mermaid bone, Natsume Takashi's illness will be cured immediately, and she and Madara don't need to worry about him anymore.

The Earth God doesn't know how the mermaid bone came from, she just needs to say that it doesn't belong to her, and if others don't want to donate the mermaid bone, then the Earth God is not qualified to use the mermaid bone as medicine.

When the time comes, she can take the mermaid bone back to treat Natsume.

Except for her, no one in Dajiangshan knew that she had a mermaid bone, and she had countless ways to keep the Earth God silent.

but……

She couldn't erase Nadeko's pale and bleeding face from her mind, couldn't ignore Tamamomae's haggard appearance, and couldn't pretend that she couldn't hear Hagoromo and Aika's restless and helpless cries at night.

At this moment, the woman lying on the bed whose life and death are unknown, went back to the village where she was almost slaughtered ten years ago regardless of comfort, and wanted to take her to a safe place with her.

Even ten years have passed, Nadeko has never forgotten her, and at the first sight of meeting her, she is determined to protect her without fear of monsters.

Every time she came to the Heian period, Nadeko would cook in person, prepare the meals in advance, and clean up the hut where she temporarily lived.

Including after learning of her brother's illness, even Nadeshiko with a big belly would still go through books and organize herbs in order to help her.

Xia You couldn't do it just watching the other party lose all of his life.

"My lord... my lord! What's the matter with you?" Seeing her face turning pale and her eyes in a daze, the Earth God couldn't help but put on a caring expression.

"No. It's nothing... I was just too surprised. I didn't expect someone to give me such a precious thing." Xia You immediately came back to her senses. She twitched the corners of her mouth, showing an ugly smile that was as ugly as crying, trembling Then he stuffed the mermaid bone into the hands of the Earth God.

"Since the mermaid bone can save Nadeko, you should use it as medicine!"

Now that there is the first mermaid bone, the second and third can be found in the future.Natsume Takashi's illness can be cured slowly, but Nadeko is really in danger right now, so she can only comfort herself in this way.

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up!" Xia You urged him.

She was afraid that if she took another look, she would regret it and ask for the mermaid bone back.

"Okay, don't worry, my lord, I'll make the soup right away." Earth God nodded and said with a smile, "But you must tell them the good news."

Xia You was upset, nodded indiscriminately, and smiled absent-mindedly, "Well...I see, you go and boil your medicine, I...I'll tell them the good news right now."

"Then I'll go to the boiler room first." Earth God nodded, and left Xia You's room briskly.

There was no one in the room, she stood there blankly for a long time, then opened the door, propped up the smoky blue umbrella and walked out with heavy steps.

Before dusk, the God of Earth finally brought the brewed decoction into the room in front of Tamamo as a treasure.

"Ibaraki-sama is back?"

Ibaraki went to the territory early this morning for a routine patrol, seeing him returning to the palace, the Earth God nodded respectfully to him.

Hoshiguma was clumsily coaxing his younger sister Aika, while Yuromo was sleeping soundly in the stroller.It's rare that Shuten didn't avoid Ibaraki, and accompanied him, staring at Hoshiguma taking care of the child.

Gu Huo Niao has a child she picked up to take care of, and usually stays here for half a day before going back for a day.

As the ghost king of Dajiangshan, Jiu Tun would not personally coax other people's cubs, but he still cared about these two poor children, and corrected Xingxiong's mistakes from the sidelines.

Ibaraki knew that the God of Earth had brought medicine to Nadeshiko as usual, so he turned his gaze to Shuten, "Friends! Did you see Xia You today?"

Seeing that Ibaraki didn't bother him, Jiu Tun was very happy, but it was a pity that he had never seen Xia You's figure today.

"Where did she go?" Ibaraki frowned and muttered to himself, the brows were filled with doubt and impatience.

"what happened?"

"That guy Huang just delivered a letter saying that he has something urgent to visit Dajiangshan tonight. I want to tell her the news. From Heianjing to here, he should be very fast."

Although he hates this guy, Xia You knows that Huang is coming, and there should be a smile on his frowning face all day long.

As soon as he received the letter, he couldn't wait to tell Xia You the news that would make her happy, but he couldn't find her after searching for a long time.

Hearing the words "Heian-kyo", Tamamomae, who had been silent all this time, finally raised his head slightly.There was a light blue under his eyes, he was still holding his wife's hand tightly, and there was a trace of coldness in his empty eyes.

He will never forget what happened that night.

Why is his wife lying here dying, in the days when human beings are all happy and rejoicing?

How much I want them to feel the fear of being surrounded by a sea of ​​fire and the pain of losing their loved ones on this dark day...

All the pain was brought by Kyoto, if Nadeko could not return to him, Tamazamae swore that he would take revenge on Kyoto.

Suddenly, the clenched hand in the big palm seemed to tremble slightly, and Yu Zaoqian immediately trembled, opened her red eyes and shouted: "It moved! I just felt her move! There can be no mistake!"

Endless hope burst out from his eyes, as if a lamp in the darkness was instantly lit.

Seeing his excited appearance, Earth God couldn't help laughing and said: "The effect of this mermaid bone is really extraordinary. She reacted just after drinking it. I think... Maybe she will be able to wake up tomorrow morning."

Hearing this sentence, everyone in the room couldn't help but smile from the bottom of their hearts.

"That's great... I don't need to be tossed about by these two brats anymore." Boy Xingxiong wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

But soon, they noticed something was wrong in the words of the Earth God.

Ibaraki's expression tightened, and a bad premonition suddenly rose in his heart. He grabbed the sleeve of the Earth God and asked urgently, "Mermaid bones? Where did you get the mermaid bones?"

The God of Earth was stunned, and subconsciously said: "That's it, Master Xia You gave it to me at noon today... She said it was given to her by a friend, but no one has come out that it is a mermaid bone."

"Why, didn't she tell you? I thought the adults already knew about it."

Hearing the words of the Earth God, after the ecstasy, Tamamomae calmed down quickly, with a look of astonishment.

Not all monsters know Xia You's secret, but everyone present knows it well.

No one knows the meaning of the mermaid bone to Xia You better than them.

There was an eerie silence in the room, and the sound of a needle dropping could be heard.

After a few breaths, Ibaraki couldn't bear it anymore, pushed open the door and disappeared into the courtyard like a gust of wind.

Ibaraki searched all over the mountains and rivers, and finally found Xia You when the afterglow of the setting sun enveloped the sky.

Even in winter, in the enchantment field transformed from a sea of ​​flowers, countless kinds of rare medicinal herbs thrive as if in spring, all thanks to the superb craftsmanship of the Earth God.

It was falling gently, under a tree covered with snow, Xia You was sitting on the cold and smooth boulder with a blue umbrella in her arms.

She was fascinated by playing with a plucked medicinal flower, the corners of her crimson skirt were soaked in snow, even if Ibaraki approached here, she didn't notice it.

Under the afterglow of the setting sun that was not warm, she just sat there quietly by herself, a small one, as if tightly surrounded by an incomprehensible sadness.

For no reason, Ibaraki's heart twitched violently.

He was silent, and walked slowly towards Xia You step by step. The golden bell on his ankle rang softly in the wind, and finally he gently embraced her in his arms.
