What Jidao did was not because he didn't want to protect her. On the contrary, if possible, he hoped that he could protect Qianxuan until his death.
But after ten years of study, he knew this was impossible.
In the trial in the darkest environment, whether it is him or Qianxuan, their personal abilities need to reach a state where they can stand alone.
If Qian Xuan keeps positioning himself as an auxiliary, the gap between him and the Jida will become wider and wider, and this partnership will become less and less like a partner until it completely collapses.
The Jida cannot keep the person he values behind him like other people, for fear that she will be hurt a little.
He must put Qianxuan in a position similar to him, accept baptism in a terrifying environment, and enhance his abilities.
All of this is for a simple two words - survival!
This road without any light was chosen by Ji Dao. He never thought that anyone would join in, but Qianxuan did!
This is her choice, and Ji Dao has no right to interfere, but since she has already embarked on this path, Ji Dao can only think that she is ready to temper herself.
This is not as simple as breaking a few bones. He will also feel distressed when Qianxuan is seriously injured and vomits blood, but he will not prevent this from happening. To be precise, he cannot, because she needs the current process.
When he first came into contact with such a theory, he couldn't accept it. It ran counter to his philosophy. How could he watch important people getting hurt and remain indifferent?
Later, he understood that important people cannot just be left behind him, but he must protect them with all his strength no matter how hard they go through ups and downs.
Rather than living under the protection of the Jida all the time, Qianxuan hopes to enhance her abilities and share some of the pressure for him.
Some people just hope to have someone to protect them all their lives, but some people hope to temper themselves to protect others. Women are not necessarily on the side of being protected, they can also be the second type of person, protecting others.
people.
Both Qianxuan and Jidao are the second type of people. After understanding this, Jidao is much more accepting of giving Qianxuan training.
But then again, he can understand this relationship because Yi Xuan taught it, but Qianxuan may not be able to understand it without learning it.
That's why she always regards herself as an assistant, just wanting to share the pressure for Jida, and then protect him when he is incapable.
Qianxuan's previous thoughts were similar to those of the Jida. She only thought about protecting others when she was suffering, so she buried all difficulties in her heart. She only thought about not causing trouble to others, and she took on everything else by herself.
Just fine.
But this kind of thinking does not apply to partners. Who knows how much burden you think you have added to others?
Qianxuan's expression was a little dazed, her eyes had turned red, and she seemed about to shed tears at any time. Jidao didn't know what to comfort him at this time, so he could only sigh.
This is a process that Qianxuan must go through. Ji Dao needs to let go. Although it is her words and deeds that make her feel this way, it is better than not telling the problem all the time and causing serious consequences.
The Jidao learn a kind of supreme rationality that allows them to survive. He knew that Qianxuan must feel a little aggrieved, because she had been suppressing herself and not wanting to put pressure on the Jidao, but the fact was not what she thought.
Ji Dao clenched his fists and closed his eyes tightly. Although he needed to adapt to this process, watching the process of seeing the people he values being hurt, it was the first time he experienced this today, and he was still heartbroken, but he couldn't
Stopping it is also a kind of helplessness, because the choice he makes must go through such a process!
Qianxuan still resisted the urge to shed tears. Even if she doesn't understand it now, she will slowly understand it in the future.
Jidao felt his hand being pulled. He slowly opened his eyes and saw Qianxuan, who was a head shorter than him, lowering his head in front of him. Jidao couldn't see her facial expression clearly. He
Somewhat at a loss.
"Let's keep walking. I won't do this again, not anymore."
Qian Xuan did not raise her head after all, Jidao also sighed, and then slowly walked towards the stairs.
When he reached the third floor, Jidao glanced back. Qianxuan's eyes were no longer as red as before, and her eyes returned to their original appearance, but who knew how much time had passed before she returned to this state.
What about ideological struggles?
"Jidao, this level seems to have no guardians."
Qianxuan's tone also returned to its normal tone, but the more it was like this, the more distressed Jidao felt. Knowing that she might also have the ability to control her emotions in an instant, Jidao didn't know whether to be happy or sad at the moment.
He nodded. This empty space on the first floor looked very strange indeed. There was no figure and no guardian was seen. Could it be that they were allowed to pass directly?
"Let's go up the stairs first and take a look."
The two looked at each other and nodded to each other.
As they stood at the exit, a strange feeling enveloped the two people.
"Qianxuan, do you still remember the colors on the third, fourth, and fifth floors when we were watching outside?"
Ji Dao's expression is a bit weird. There should be no problem with his memory, but he still has to rule out this possibility.
Qianxuan nodded slightly: "The third layer is red, the fourth layer is white, and the fifth layer is purple."
But here, the space is filled with a kind of purple light.
The expressions of both of them became a little solemn. This should mean that there was no problem on the fifth level, and they should not have been in any illusion.
The question now is, where did the fourth floor go?
"There should be only one step up, but we were on the third floor and walked directly to the fifth floor."
Ji Dao didn't make any move, for fear of touching some reaction mechanism here. He always felt that he had to go back to the third floor to find out. If this weird feeling was not eliminated, it would definitely have some influence on their actions.
Influence.
"And what we just ascended should only be the height of one floor. I have calculated that thirty-two steps are equal to the number of steps we took when we went up to the previous floor."
The two of them did not feel happy when they climbed directly to the fifth floor. This was too unreasonable. They should have only climbed one floor, so why did they reach the fifth floor directly?
The two of them were in front of the stairs.
"There should be some kind of substance in this staircase that affects perception. I can't be sure what it is. It can make us think that we are only going up one floor."
In any case, what they saw outside the tower must be accurate. As for why the green light on the first layer turned completely black, they still don't know the reason.
However, there must be a fourth layer, and the color may be different, but it should be there.
"Now there are two possibilities. The first one is that the color outside misled us. In fact, we arrived at the fourth floor, but we were misled by the color outside. Supporting this explanation is the dark environment on the first floor."
Qian Xuan nodded solemnly after hearing this.
"The second one is that the fourth floor needs to trigger certain conditions on the third floor to appear. As you just said, there are some factors that affect perception in the stairwell. What supports this explanation is the layout of the third floor.
, it’s too simple and doesn’t even have any guardians.”
The two looked at each other, and a feeling arose in their hearts.
"I still prefer the second option."
The two of them said this sentence in unison. Their faces were a little surprised at first, and then they both laughed.
"Since everything is like this, let's look for it. We have plenty of time anyway."
Jidao waved his hand and reached the luminous crystal in the center. Jidao's cheek was reflected in the luminous crystal. He looked at his face, thoughtfully.
