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

Ibaraki is not good at comforting others. Usually, the people he cares about are too strong to need his comforting at all, but he doesn't care about the weak who need comforting and encouraging.

When he first learned about this, he didn't even know what to say when facing Xia You, but he could personally feel how sad and confused Xia You was at the moment.

Don't say she did the right thing, don't say she did the wrong thing, but the world is unpredictable.

But the more he knew how heavy her heart was now, and seeing her silent appearance, the more Ibaraki's heart seemed to be pricked by countless needles.

"If there is the first piece, there will be the second one. I will accompany you until you find the second mermaid bone."

Even if he goes to the ends of the earth, he will guard her tirelessly and follow her to pursue hope in any direction.

After Ibaraki finished speaking, he amplified the strength of his palm and leaned her head against his chest, hoping that she could cry indulgently in his arms and not suppress his emotions.

Winter snow was mixed with drizzle, and it was very cold around the medicine field, but Ibaraki's chest was hot. Xia You could even hear his strong heartbeat, ringing in his ears, giving people a strange sense of peace of mind.

The surrounding chill was dispelled, and Xia You's face regained a bit of blood. With a bit of nostalgia in her face, she tilted her head and snuggled into his arms, and slowly closed her eyes.

In the distance, a man in purple priestly costume stood quietly in the distance, holding a plain umbrella in his hand.

He watched this scene quietly, and did not step forward to disturb the tranquility of the two of them at the moment.

Xia You didn't cry, she lay in Ibaraki's arms for a while, and opened her eyes only after she calmed down.

"Ibaraki, thank you."

"Every time no matter what happens, you will find me the first time and stay by my side."

Traveling to this time and space twice in different times, he was the first to see him, and he was also the first to find her. Perhaps the fetters have been entangled in Mingming and can no longer be untied.

She raised her head and smiled at him with bent lips, with a rare tenderness in her eyes, "I really feel at ease with you by my side."

This is a different embrace from his father and elder brother, it is also warm and broad, but hotter.

Looking at Xia You's calm and peaceful face, Ibaraki pursed his lips lightly, but his mood did not cheer up because of Xia You's performance at this time, but became heavier instead.

"Xia You, I can't help you with anything." There was a hint of hoarseness in his low voice, and for the first time in his life, he felt that the proud and powerful self was not omnipotent.

At least, in front of him, he can't even make the people he cares about smile from the heart.

In the past six months, he has been able to avoid going to another world to cling to Xia You often.Whenever Xia You was not around, in the Heian era, he would go to the surrounding areas to look for the legendary mermaid bones, just to keep Xia You from worrying, but he never mentioned it.

Many lairs of extremely evil monsters made him try every means to turn them upside down, but he found nothing.

The more it got to the present, the more Ibaraki hated himself for being helpless.

"Sorry, I'm so useless."

Xia You was slightly taken aback, this was the first time she saw Ibaraki showing such an obvious feeling of self-blame and loss, and the person who made him, who had always been arrogant and confident, show such an expression was her own.

There was an unspeakable emotion in her heart, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"If you hadn't helped me find the Earth God and those rare medicinal herb seeds, my brother might have been lying in the hospital long ago. Why didn't you help me?"

"On the contrary, you have helped me a lot. If it weren't for you, I would have lost my mind a long time ago. How could I persist until now?"

Just like a long, long time ago, if Ibaraki hadn't taken her out of the deserted and strange forest outside the Nuliang group, she might have been eaten by monsters long ago without learning any spells.

Ibaraki's hand was exposed in the air, and it felt a little cold to the touch. Xia You took his hand out of his palm, and instead used both hands to tightly hold his palm, which was much larger than her own, and then warmed him up.

"I'm glad to have you here."

She raised her head and smiled at her, but her delicate and soft eyebrows revealed incomparable firmness.

"I'm not very sad, don't worry about me, I'm just thinking about how I can learn more about the mermaid bone."

"From the very beginning, I knew it was hard to find, and I thought, maybe it's just word of mouth, maybe it's not there at all."

"That's why I've been very nervous." Speaking of this, the smile on the corner of Xia You's lips deepened a lot, and her expression revealed a little relaxed look, "But what happened today surprised me, and I'm also very... happy. "

"Not only can Nadeshiko be out of danger, but also let me know that things like mermaid bones are real, not just legends that are hard to tell..."

"It really gave me a shot of reassurance."

"As you said, if there is the first piece, there will be the second piece, and even more...I will definitely find it."

"What's more, you're still with me, aren't you?"

After saying these words with a slight smile, she raised her head slightly to look at his flowing eyes. A pair of golden pupils were wrapped in a special black night sky, but Xia You didn't feel the slightest bit scary.

Before the last sunset completely disappeared into the horizon, the stars in the night sky could not wait to twinkle, presenting a wonderful scene.

However, Ibaraki felt that even the stars in the entire night sky could not compare to the brilliance of the bright eyes in front of him.

The negative emotions in my heart were erased bit by bit, and Ibaraki took a deep breath and smiled at her, "Xia You, has anyone told you that you are actually very powerful."

Xia You tilted her head, blinked her eyes and said, "It's never happened before. Everyone says that I look like I'm easy to bully."

Her gentle and elegant appearance carries an innate weakness. In front of her parents, she will always be a daughter who can't grow up. In front of her elder brother, she will always be a younger sister who needs care and care.

Even though he studied hard by Huang's side for so long, he always thought that she was too weak and not strong enough, so he protected her tightly.

Ibaraki is the only one who will not block her footsteps, while protecting her, also fights side by side with her.

With a chuckle, he stretched out his hand to brush the slightly messy hair on her forehead, and then kissed Xia You lightly on the forehead.

"However, I think you are as powerful as me and my best friend, maybe... a little stronger than me."

Ibaraki felt deeply in his heart. Ever since the news about him and Xia You spread in Dajiangshan, the monsters in the ghost town would always whisper and wonder why he fell in love with such a weak human being.

After all, Ibaraki Doji is always a monster in pursuit of strength.

But in this world, not only strength can be considered strong.

Xia You was the one who had the deepest depression and the most fear about the mermaid bone, but in the end she had to turn around and enlighten him, obviously she was the one who should be comforted.

It is both gentle and powerful.

From the first moment we met, Xia You has always been like this, and has never changed.

In a daze, Ibaraki recalled the boy with light brown hair.

He is the one who has been under the greatest pressure and pain, and he is also the one who is the strongest and optimistic in the end.Even though they are not related by blood, the two siblings are unexpectedly similar.

This is the power and strength buried in the human heart.

It's just that he used to always dismiss their fragile appearance, thus ignoring these most charming things.But only now did he discover that this kind of power was still deeply attracting him unconsciously, and by the time he realized it, he had already sunk into it.

Lu Wubu, who had a panoramic view of the two people's words and scenes, nodded, a trace of relief and reassurance flashed in his eyes, obviously he already knew that the mermaid bone was given to Nadeshiko for medicine.

Looking at Xia You's expression at this moment, it seemed that he was worrying for nothing.

But... As expected of the child he chose, he believed that his vision was never wrong.

As soon as the smile deepened, he saw Ibaraki kissing the other party, and immediately suppressed his smile slightly, walked forward and coughed a few times.

The two immersed in the small world came back to their senses, Xia You subconsciously let go of Ibaraki and stood up, uncomfortably brushing off the snowflakes falling from her body, feeling like being caught by her parents on the spot for doing something wrong.

"Cough... why did you suddenly come to Dajiangshan..."

"Suddenly?" Huang glanced at Ibaraki lightly, "I have already sent a letter to Ibaraki to tell you, it seems that next time I need to find a reliable recipient."

Ibaraki pretended not to hear Huang's words that the needle was hidden in the cotton, and carefully removed the leaves and ice slag from Xia You's skirt.

"I came to Dajiangshan in a hurry this time because I have something very important to tell you."

Seeing his serious expression, Xia You also straightened up, nodded and said, "Just talk."

"I predicted the location of the human face tree in the dream before, and I have confirmed the location."

Xia You was startled, and immediately froze in place.

Did she hear it right?

Seeing her stunned look, Huang continued: "In the past few months, I have been investigating based on the scenes in my dreams, and finally found out that the location of the Human Face Tree is located in the east of the Xiguo area."

"Western Country?" Ibaraki frowned. It was a place far away from the Kyoto prefecture. It was beyond the sphere of influence of the monsters in the Kyoto area. It was someone else's territory, strange and full of unknown dangers.

"That's right, the Western Kingdom is very big, and there are many forests there. Although I'm not sure which forest the human-mask tree grows in, I found out that the human-mask tree is called Pu Xianweng."

"Based on this news, you can ask the monsters in the Western Kingdom. It is not difficult for me to find Pu Xianweng."

Xia You, who listened to all the words like a dream, finally regained consciousness in a trance, and was so excited that she couldn't speak a word for a while.

Xia You didn't expect that after experiencing the torment of hope and despair, the light illuminated the way forward so quickly once, and it caught her off guard.

"me……"

Seeing that she wanted to laugh but couldn't help crying with a few drops of tears in her eyes, Huang gently curled the corners of her lips and reached out to touch her head.

"Don't be dumb, I found a map from the Book Collection Pavilion in the Xinggong Palace, come with me back to the house, let me explain the route to the West Country for you one by one carefully..."

"Great!" Xia You sniffed, a smile full of hope and excitement bloomed on her face, and she could only hold back these three words to express her current mood.

"Then let's go, the winter night is very cold, and it's still raining." Huang took advantage of the situation and patted her on the shoulder, holding her in his arms and taking Xia You under his plain umbrella.

After finishing all this, he turned his head and slightly raised his eyebrows at Ibaraki, showing a slight provocative smile.

Sure enough, to make Xia You smile, he still needs to come...

Ibaraki looked at him expressionlessly, silently picked up the umbrella that belonged to Xia You on the ground, and strode forward to follow, but the strength in his hand almost crushed the umbrella handle.

Today's fist is very itchy.

*****

If you stay strong in the face of adversity, you will see the light of hope at the end of the desperate situation.

Thousands of years have passed by, and many topographic and place names have changed. Modern maps are not applicable.Huang took advantage of his position to bring Xia You the most detailed and accurate map of this era.

Xia You carefully looked at the area circled by Huang. On the modern map, it should belong to Tottori County in the western region.

Kyoto is located in the Kinki area, that is, the Kansai area, and is only separated from Tottori Prefecture by Hyogo Prefecture.

Fortunately, it's not too far away, Xia You breathed a sigh of relief.

If you take the Shinkansen, it only takes about three hours. Of course, in this bumpy Heian era when even the mountain roads still have eighteen bends, this kind of transportation does not exist.

Even if there is no Shinkansen, Ibaraki calculates that it will take about three to five days to reach the Xiguo area with the monsters in the ghost town to drive, plus the rest and stop time on the way.

But the short New Year's holiday is coming to an end, and Xia You will soon return to school to continue classes, so she has to wait for another more suitable time.

There are many and scattered holidays in the island country. Students have three semesters a year, and they have three holidays in total. In addition to the winter and summer vacations, there is also a longer spring vacation, which will last from late February to early April.

This long vacation of about one month gave Xia You enough time to go to the west country to look for Pu Xianweng.

It's just that after leaving the modern age for such a long time, Madara can't always change into her appearance to deal with Shigeru Fujiwara and Toko. Toko is so careful, Madara will show his feet sooner or later.

The only way is to declare to her parents that she will spontaneously travel abroad with her friends during the holidays.

At her age, it is very troublesome to go through various procedures, but fortunately, the Fujiwara couple loved her since childhood, almost to the point of responding to her requests.

After all the formalities were completed, Xia You certainly didn't need it, it was just to pretend to be a tourist and show it to her parents.

After she leaves, Yiqi Rihe will help her log into her social account, and post some travel photos for her regularly to her family.

As for the photos...Of course they were pre-photographed. This guy Yato has lived for a thousand years and his work is not in vain. Apart from repairing the computer in Hoian toilet, he is also good at it.

With his superb photoshop skills, it is not a problem to hide the truth from Toko Fujiwara.

Xia You was afraid that Natsume Takashi would be worried, so she never mentioned the matter of the mermaid bone and the human face tree with him, so she changed the reason and said that Huang Yao was testing her experience in the past six months.

Natsume Takashi carefully prepared all the things she needed, and said with a smile, "It will be fine if you pass the test. Be careful on the way of cultivation."

"Well, I'll be back soon!" Xia You nodded heavily, taking advantage of the days when Fujiwara Toko was out to visit her grandmother, she carried a large bag of things and opened the wardrobe leading to another world.

Before leaving, she waved her hand and said, "You must remember to take your medicine well."

"I will." Natsume Takashi nodded with a smile, and watched her gently into the closet.

"Take your medicine well. When I come back, your illness will definitely be cured..." After taking a deep look at him, Xia You finally disappeared at the end of the closet.

After she left, Natsume Takashi slowly put away the smile on his face, sat in his sister's room and stared at the closet in a daze.

"What's the matter, Guizhi, you seem to have something on your mind?" Madara rolled around on Xia You's bed, and stepped on a bunch of dirty paw prints on the sheet while she was away.

Natsume Takashi shook his head lightly, "It's nothing... It's just that Xiaoyou has to leave for so long this time, and I feel a little bit reluctant."

For some reason, watching her disappear into the closet, I always felt a sense of emptiness in my heart.

Let everything go well.
