God's Grace

Departing late at night, we arrived near Wudang Mountain the next morning.

Under Xia Xiwei's guidance, the convoy did not drive into the Wudang Mountain Scenic Area, but drove through mountain roads, entered a remote mountain area, and stopped in front of a big mountain covered with lush old trees.

There are many such mountains between the Shennongjia forest area and Wudang Mountain. The altitude is not too high, and it looks inconspicuous. Compared with the nearby continuous peaks, there is nothing special.

The convoy drove until the car could no longer move forward, and stopped before entering the mountain path. Medusa fell into a coma shortly after getting on the car, and has not woken up until now. Xia's bodyguards took out the stretcher that had been prepared , carried Medusa and followed Xia Xiwei to the mountain.

Walking through the rugged trail into the mountain, before entering the mountain, Xia Xiwei and the others who were walking in the front suddenly stopped in their tracks.

I saw a woman in white walking lightly from the mountain path covered by trees. Her figure was light, her toes tapped lightly on the stone-strewn mountain path, and her feet barely touched the ground, as if she was moving like flying. With that white dress and flying black hair, she looks like a fairy in the legend.

She stopped lightly not far in front of everyone, with one hand hanging down naturally, and the other slightly behind her back. Just standing quietly, she had a unique aura of cleanliness, but her exquisitely beautiful face looked But it's a little... Childish, like a baby face, coupled with that pair of clear and beautiful eyes, it gives people a unique sense of agility and spirit, which adds a bit of fireworks to her, not like she is not at all. The nine-day fairy who cannibalize fireworks in the world.

Xia Xiwei walked up to the woman in white, and bowed respectfully to her: "I've seen Senior Sister Xiao."

Senior Sister Xiao nodded faintly, glanced slightly at the people behind Xia Xiwei, and said to Xia Xiwei: "Master asked you to take that child up the mountain by yourself, and other idlers can't wait to follow."

Everyone except Xia Xiwei looked at each other in blank dismay, only Xia Xiwei was startled for a moment, and immediately agreed: "Yes, I understand."

Then Senior Sister Xiao looked deeply at Xia Xiwei and Medusa lying on the stretcher, didn't say anything more, or looked at the others, turned around and went up the mountain again, and disappeared like a phantom in a short while. The end of the forest road.

Sisina stepped forward and said a little annoyed: "Your senior sister is really a strange woman. From a distance, she looks cold, but up close she looks cute, but she is actually really cold."

She curled her lips, then frowned and said, "By the way, what is your master up to? This mountain road is so difficult, how can you take Sasha up by yourself?"

Xia Xiwei shook her head and said: "I can't disobey the master's order, besides, the master has already ordered not to reveal his residence to outsiders. It is already a mistake to bring you here. Even if the senior sister doesn't tell me, I won't bring you Too many people go up the mountain."

In fact, she originally planned to let the bodyguards stay at the bottom of the mountain, and then she, Sisina and Yuri Alli took Medusa up the mountain, but since the master gave the order, she had to go up the mountain with Medusa.

She said slightly apologetically to Sisina and Uriel: "You go to a nearby town to find a place to live, and I will take Medusa to see the master."

Sisina: "But Sasha is still in a coma, how are you going to take her up by yourself?"

Xia Xiwei looked at Medusa lying on the stretcher, and said firmly, "I'll carry her!"

……

Xia Xiwei walked on the winding and rugged mountain road alone with Medusa on her back.

Surrounded by tall trees, the mountain road only tens of centimeters wide is steep and rugged, uneven and even sharp stones are densely mixed with moss that is easy to slippery, making it very difficult to walk, especially Xia Xiwei is carrying Medusa, The difficulty of mountain climbing can be imagined.

At the end of November, the weather in the hinterland of China is already very cold, especially in the mountainous areas. There was frost last night, and as the sun heats up, the frost on the bushes gradually melts.

The dew wet Xia Xiwei and Medusa's clothes. Xia Xiwei was a little worried that Medusa would catch a cold, so she stopped and put her down, took off her coat to help her put it on, and then carried her on her back, towards the top of the mountain Stagger away.

The sweat that just flowed out was dried by the cool wind in the mountains. The coldness of the forest made her shiver. The sharp stones under her feet scratched her shoes, and several times her feet slipped on the smooth stone steps. Her calf was knocked against the stone steps, and she trembled every time she took a step because of the pain.

She simply took off the broken shoes, wrapped the scarf on her bloody feet cut by the sharp stone, and continued to grit her teeth and insist on walking forward.

It shouldn't be this hard to walk...

Why can't I use my strength...

Xia Xiwei had countless questions in her heart. The mountain is actually not too high, and Fanxinyuan is only a little bit up the mountainside. She has walked this mountain road countless times since she was a child, and it is easy to go up and down the mountain every time. Yes, even if you are less than ten years old, it will not be so difficult to walk.

Even if you carry someone behind your back now, it doesn't make sense to do this.

Obviously, the mountain road has not changed in any way, but she feels that today's mountain road is much more difficult than before. She seems to have a feeling that she can't exert herself, and her physical strength is also losing quickly.

Xia Xiwei remembered that the master once said that in order to prevent the world from discovering the location of Fanxinyuan, this mountain is covered with Dao formations that are invisible to the naked eye. Only through a special walking path can one find Fanxinyuan, otherwise no matter what happens in the mountains It is impossible to reach the Fanxin Academy by turning around.

Now is the master, has he changed the Dao formation?why?

Xia Xiwei didn't know, she could only move forward according to the path in her memory.

She carried her on her back, walking and walking, walking and walking, but the more she walked, the more she lost her physical strength, her head was dizzy because of exhaustion, and her weak body seemed to be erratic in a dream, but the pain on her body , and her shallow breathing next to her ear, let her clearly know that all this is reality.

When she finally reached the last section of the road in her memory, she speeded up a little joyfully, but after walking for more than half an hour, she was a little confused... She seemed to have circled back to the original place?

Actually... Lost?

At this moment, Xia Xiwei was finally convinced that the Dao Formation on the mountain had really been changed.

If she didn't know the new correct path, she might never reach Fanxin Yuan, but she didn't give up and continued to walk forward with Medusa on her back.

Medusa's head rested on Xia Xiwei's shoulder, her eyelashes fluttered, and she gradually opened her eyes. After regaining consciousness, Medusa asked in a daze, "Weiwei... where is this place?" ?”

Xia Xiwei continued to walk on the rugged mountain road, panting and said: "Sasha, are you awake? This is the mountain where my master lives. I am taking you to the mountain courtyard where my master lives. You continue to rest, we will be there soon..."

"Oh..." Medusa replied weakly.

It's just that after she lay on Xia Xiwei's back and observed for a while, she realized something was wrong, "What's wrong with you, Weiwei...you seem very tired?"

Then when she saw Xia Xiwei's feet wrapped in blood-stained scarf, she gasped suddenly: "Weiwei, what's wrong with your feet? Stop it! Put me down quickly, don't Let's go!"

Xia Xiwei smiled and shook her head: "It's okay, I can't stop, I already understand, this may be some kind of test for me."

Medusa struggled to get down, Xia Xiwei comforted her seriously: "Sasha, be good, let me continue to carry you on my back, trust me, I will definitely pass this test."

Seeing that Xia Xiwei was really serious, Medusa calmed down, watching her staggeringly walking on the mountain path, watching the scarf wrapped around her feet turn red and black, watching her repeatedly Falling down and standing up again, tears of distressed tears kept swirling in the eye sockets.

However, when she circled and circled on the mountain for an unknown amount of time, and even strenuously took steps, Medusa finally couldn't hold back her tears and cried, "Don't go, Weiwei... don't go anymore Alright, let's go down the mountain! I'm fine, I'm out of danger, it doesn't matter if I don't go to your master..."

Xia Xiwei shook her head firmly: "No, Sasha, you said that if you give up, you really lose, right?"

Before Medusa could reply, she said again: "Sasha, actually, I've been wanting to ask you something, can you not be angry?"

Medusa was slightly startled: "What's the matter?"

Xia Xiwei smiled and said, "Is there any difference between the way you liked Athena and the way you liked me?"

Medusa froze for a moment, then smiled wryly, "Why are you asking this now?"

Xia Xiwei said seriously: "Because I want to know what you think."

After thinking about it for a long time, Medusa smiled and said, "If you just say 'like' this emotion, there is actually no difference."

"The feeling of liking for someone at the beginning may be because of the beauty of the other person, the uniqueness of the other person or any other reason. When you think of the other person, your heart beats endlessly, and when you see the other person, your heart beats endlessly. This kind of liking for the other person Emotions, whether it is the secret love for Athena mixed with admiration and longing, or the liking for your beauty and gentleness after meeting you, there is actually not much difference."

"However, I didn't understand until recently that liking is a pure emotion, but no matter how strong I liked Athena at the beginning, it is completely different from the feeling I have for you now."

"Because not only I like you now, but you also like me! I didn't know until I heard you say 'I love you' to me. It turns out that the strongest emotion in this world is not the emotion of loving someone, but Knowing and experiencing the emotion of being deeply loved, it will be so touching and joyful in the heart, it turns out that liking and being liked, loving and being loved, is the most wonderful thing in this world... ..."

"I want this feeling to last forever in my heart, I want this bond of loving and being loved to last forever, and I dream of living happily with you until the so-called eternal life comes to an end. Between completely different existences regardless of past, age, race, gender, soul, etc., the feeling called 'love' is one of the greatest meanings of life!..."

The more Medusa said, the more she blushed at the end. Yes, it is a shameful thing to express the most true and true feelings hidden deep in my heart, especially the stronger and more important feelings, I even feel scared when I say them .

Because she would be afraid of being denied and not recognized, but Medusa couldn't help but say it out, because she knew that she could really feel that Xia Xiwei must have the same feelings for her.
