When Bai Xiaoxiao regained consciousness, everything was over - the altar was destroyed, the old thief Chen Cheng was missing, and the monk had also left, leaving behind only a pile of corpses and a person who died with his eyes open.

The moonlight is dimmer.

The orange rice fields were stained with layer upon layer of blood, and their original appearance was no longer recognizable. The wheat stalks were drooping and dripping with blood, and corpses were thrown all over the ground. It was a scene of hell on earth.

Bai Xiaoxiao took a while to calm down. Little Qirong was sitting next to her. His tender, clean little face had now become dirty, and his eyes were calm and peaceful, which was creepy.

"I used to think that saving lives and healing the wounded wouldn't be too bad even if I didn't get any thanks. But I was wrong." Qi Rong's voice was terrifyingly calm, as if the person who was hysterical just now was not him. Looking at the village where she once lived, Bai Xiaoxiao felt dizzy at the scene that was now like hell on earth.

“People who save others may not necessarily have a good ending.”

Qi Rong murmured in a low voice, as if speaking to Bai Xiaoxiao, or to himself: "Overly kindheartedness may not necessarily lead to redemption, but will push the people you care about into the abyss. Grandpa saved Chen Cheng out of kindness, but he wanted to sacrifice the entire village. I begged that monk to pick herbs at the risk of my life so that he could help me save the people I care about, but in the end... they didn't even have a complete body."

"do you know?"

"I am actually an orphan, I have no parents, let alone a grandfather."

Bai Xiaoxiao accompanied Qi Rong quietly. She didn't know how to counsel this child who had just lost a loved one, but she had to at least give him some comfort.

But Qi Rong's subsequent words shocked her greatly.

"I don't know who my parents are or where my home is. I grew up in this village, wearing clothes and eating food from many families. Everyone in this village is like my parents. They never despise me for being a useless orphan and are willing to give me food, but they themselves are still hungry and cold."

"I was adopted by Grandpa Qi, taught medical knowledge, and learned how to be kind. I try my best to do it and am willing to believe it."

"But the result, huh..."

"This is not your fault, Third Brother."

Seeing the mocking and lonely expression of the child in white, Bai Xiaoxiao couldn't help but comfort him. As soon as she said the first sentence, she was surprised to find that she could speak.

"Ah."

Qi Rong responded calmly. He raised his palm and gently covered Bai Xiaoxiao's head. He saw what she was thinking at a glance: "You can speak now."

Bai Xiaoxiao was very excited, but when she raised her eyes, she found that Qi Rong in front of her was different.

The originally dirty little guy has turned into an adult without anyone noticing, his black hair fluttering in the wind, and the flowing brocade has no complicated patterns embroidered on it, but it is still otherworldly.

Night turns to day.

The warm sunlight fell on his face, like a thin layer of light.

Bai Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly looked down at her hands.

Human hands,

She's back!

She adjusted her skirt and sat cross-legged next to Qi Rong. Qi Rong withdrew his gaze from her and looked into the distance again. Bai Xiaoxiao then realized that the broken bodies had long disappeared, and the rice fields had straightened up again, a patch of yellow and orange against the blue sky and white clouds, which was very beautiful.

"It's been a while since I reminisced about the past."

Qirong looked at the view with a faint voice.

"Third Senior Brother..."

Bai Xiaoxiao called him softly, but apart from that she seemed unable to say anything else.

"I know, it's okay."

Qi Rong said softly: "Those things are in the past. I am no longer the child who could only cry while holding the bones. I don't know if it's because they hate me. I haven't dreamed of them or grandpa in all these years. It's as if they disappeared from my life."

"How could it disappear..."

A child who grew up wearing clothes and eating food from many families,

I will cherish the hard-earned family affection more.

Bai Xiaoxiao knew Qi Rong's confusion and pain. She once envied children with both parents and was also confused as to why she was the only one in the world. That's why she would remember for a long time a small act of kindness from others, not to mention the whole village who had been taking care of him.

Qi Rong continued, "I understand my physical condition. If I can't stabilize my half-formed Nascent Soul cultivation, it will fall apart sooner or later. It's better to restrain myself first and stabilize my foundation bit by bit."

Bai Xiaoxiao looked at him: "I also want to go back to the past..."

Qi Rong paused without saying anything. The fine black hair on his forehead fell slightly to cover his expression. His lips, which seemed to be smiling but not smiling, showed alienation and an indescribable loneliness and sadness.

The worry in Bai Xiaoxiao's eyes was about to overflow.

This kind of look can easily make you depressed.

She coughed twice, "It's all the fault of that turtle bastard Chen Cheng. You said that he is a good person but he doesn't want to be an immortal. He has to take shortcuts! Look at him, his wrinkled face doesn't look good at all. He has no children but he still wants to be a father. What a weird species. I think we should not only divide the world into five realms: immortals, demons, humans, monsters and the underworld, but also divide it into six realms for seafood. After all, many people can only talk nonsense, but many turtles can crawl around."

[I still cursed in a reserved way. I would say that there is no sad thing that cannot be solved by a "grass mud horse". If there is, I would say two sentences, plus "get out of here", "idiot", "what the hell", "you are a psychopath", "idiot, you ****", "****", etc. ...]

[I don’t have the recklessness of a rough man, I need to have the aura of a shrew. When I stand there, I will scare the other person to death, then crush his bones and throw him up, looking cool and domineering! Yeah! ]

"Ah……"

Qi Rong suddenly laughed softly.

Bai Xiaoxiao was stunned. She didn't know which sentence tickled Third Senior Brother's funny bone, or whether her scolding was too childish, making him feel like "I can do that, too".

She actually also has the ability to be sarcastic at a high level.

But, it doesn't make me feel relieved.

Qi Rong touched the little girl who looked like a frightened squirrel and said, "I know, I know everything. You have already proved with facts that kindness will not be betrayed. I am not wrong, and Grandpa is not wrong. The ones who are wrong are Chen Cheng, Que Tiancheng, and that arrogant monk."

"Thank you, Xiaoxiao."

Bai Xiaoxiao immediately recalled Qi Rong's strange behavior during the initial beast tide - he had never wanted to save people, he was just afraid that his momentary kindness would harm the people closest to him.

But she told him with her actions,

She has the ability.

She will not be harmed.

After figuring this out, Bai Xiaoxiao smiled again: "Then shall we go out?"

Qi Rong also smiled and said, "Get out. The accounts that need to be settled and the revenge that needs to be taken should finally be resolved."
