"what happened?"
"My dad never answers my phone calls," Luo Jiutian said as if complaining, "I thought I would receive his condolence call as soon as I turned on the phone, but it never got through, and it's the same now."
The fool looked at the others and said carefully, "Is something going to happen?"
Luo Jiutian was stunned for a moment.
"Why don't you worry about us first?" Qin Yin took out a few oranges from the bag and gave them to others. "Are you still worried about Lao Luo? Lao Luo's strength needs us to worry about?"
After hearing this, Luo Jiutian laughed out loud, "Yes, how could something happen to my father?"
"Then what if...something happens to Jasmine?"
As soon as the fool said these words, the smiles on everyone's faces disappeared.
Xiaolan, still holding the orange in her hand, froze on the spot.
The blood on his face disappeared little by little.
"You really...don't talk if you can't speak," Qin Yin hit the fool's ribs with his elbow, "If something happened to them, no one would notify us? No one can be contacted now, of course. Because they are too busy.”
"Really?" Xiaolan asked.
"Actually, it's possible," Luo Jiutian said. "Although I haven't witnessed the Master's Heyi with my own eyes, I know that Jiutan's Heyi usually lasts for many days, and once it starts, it cannot be interrupted. Therefore, it is indeed possible for them to do so. I can’t spare any time.”
These words relieved some of the tension in the air.
"I think we should stop guessing," Qin Yin said, "After the matter here is over, let's go straight to the Nine Detective Station. Where is it...?"
"In Fuxuan, not far from Xinjing."
"Okay, this matter is settled. Do you have any objection, Taoist Master?"
The Taoist priest's authority was thus emptied out. He nodded silently, his expression looking a little strange.
"Is there anything else that needs to be resolved on Fengwu's side?" Baomu asked.
Xiaolan raised her hand, "We still have to go to the special school to investigate."
She had already told others that she had seen herself in the World of Ten Thousand Lives, and only after her reminder did everyone remember this.
"Oh...it doesn't matter, it should be soon. Xiaolan, don't worry. According to your sister Xiaoyin, Jasmine will definitely not be in danger. That girl of hers is very tough when it comes to fate."
Everyone chatted a few more words in the girls' room. Qin Yin looked at his watch and shouted.
"Ah! It's time for the appointment!"
"reserve?"
"Give us time to set the bones," Qin Yin pointed to her leg, and then to the fool's finger, "Have you forgotten? The clinic we made an appointment with that handsome doctor..."
The fool looked at her sideways, "I almost forgot, but you can't."
"Okay, stop nagging, Jiutian, will you take us both to the hospital when you have time?"
"Ah, I'm fine."
"Okay, let's go then." Qin Yin put on her clothes and walked to the door. After thinking about it, she came back and reached out to pat Xiaolan's wet head. "Xiaolan is waiting for sister at home. Don't think too much." .”
"Um."
Baomu also went to help, and in an instant, only Taoist priest and Xiaolan were left in the room, as well as a unconscious Wen Ling.
The Taoist priest stood in front of the balcony, raised his head, and stared quietly at the black leather hanging on the clothes drying pole. The black leather was swaying slightly in the flowing air.
"Xiaolan, is Heipi talking?"
"Ah? No," Xiaolan sat listlessly on the chair, not even interested in eating. "It's just wandering around and playing by itself."
The Taoist Master heard the strangeness in Xiaolan's voice and turned around, "Are you still worried?"
"I just feel... as if everything is complicated, and there is nothing that I can understand at once."
"What's so complicated?"
"For example... the Fire Lotus incident," Xiaolan frowned and complained, "I originally thought that this matter ended two years ago, but I kept discovering that there are more chapters and more chapters... I don't know. When will there be a clean and tidy ending?”
"However, only Li can have a clean and tidy ending," Taoist priest said. "This is the reality. All events are interconnected and entangled, forming a complex fate."
Xiaolan understood a little, but also didn't understand a little.
"I know what you are thinking. You are very upset. There are too many things happening around you, but these things are not the source of your worries," the Taoist Master said slowly. "In your heart, what makes you feel most anxious and fearful is Yes, it’s still about yourself and your identity.”
Xiaolan's pupils dilated for a moment.
The Taoist priest's words seemed to have touched the depths of her heart, and there were things there that she was not even aware of.
That's right, I have actually been afraid.
However, it was not because of anything else, but because the layer of fog that shrouded himself seemed to be about to dissipate, but it was this last thin layer that he could not peel off no matter what.
And, somehow, the closer I got to the truth, the stronger that feeling of fear became.
It seems that I don't want to know my identity...
It was precisely this that worried her the most.
I want to know the truth, but I am afraid of knowing the truth.
"Why is this happening?" Xiaolan curled up into the soft back of the chair, "Taoist Priest, do you have a secret?"
"have."
"Then do you feel this way?" Xiaolan raised her eyes and asked, "Do you feel worried?"
"I won't worry, because we are different," the Taoist priest said. "I know everything about myself, Xiaolan, but you know nothing."
Xiaolan's eyes drifted away in a dull manner. After a while, her eyes suddenly returned to the Taoist priest.
"Taoist Priest, do you know about me?"
The Taoist priest was stunned for a moment.
"I have no idea."
"Really?" Xiaolan's eyes sharpened, "Don't you know anything about my identity?"
The Taoist priest clasped his hands behind his back and responded to her eyes quietly.
"I don't know anything you want to know."
Know……
have no idea……
Xiaolan was almost stunned.
She stared at the Taoist priest for a while, then finally gave up, groaning and hugging her head.
"Ah... I'm so annoyed."
"Let's solve it one by one," the Taoist priest came over, "Let's figure this out first. Don't worry, Xiaolan, the truth will be revealed one day."
"I feel now that even if I know my identity, it won't end like this," Xiaolan said, "There will always be more things, more things..."
"There must be an ending."
"When will we get to the end?" Xiaolan slumped her shoulders passively, "It won't be until the day I die, that's far away."
The Taoist priest's pupils flickered.
"Maybe."
