I trade in both worlds

Hearing this, Xu Jin almost dropped the bun in his hand. He stared at Xu Xu in disbelief with his eyes wide open.

A flash of astonishment and confusion flashed across his eyes, but was quickly replaced by deep thought.

"You mean, we have to give up everything here and live in the modern world?" This was something Xu Jin had never thought of.

They have always regarded the modern world as an adventure, and Dayun Dynasty is their home. They have never thought of leaving Dayun Dynasty to live in another world.

Xu Xu nodded, with a sad look on his face: "I don't know, but if you don't explain it this way, I can't think of any other possibilities. Maybe the Taoist priest is reminding us to be prepared for possible changes."

Xu Jin was silent. He looked down at the bun in his hand, his thoughts like a surging river, difficult to calm down.

This sudden thought made him feel shocked and confused.

He has put in so much effort and learned so much knowledge here just to make a difference in this era and change the fate of himself and his family.

However, if he really had to give up all this and live in another world, wouldn't all his previous efforts be in vain?

"But..." Xu Jin said, with some hesitation in his voice: "Our relatives and friends, and everything here, can we really give up?"

"And my parents, after we're gone, who will go to visit their graves..."

When he said this, his eyes couldn't help but become red, and an indescribable sadness surged in his heart.

Xu Xu's eyes also turned red. She understood the heaviness and reluctance. "I don't know either. But if this is destined, then we must face it and adapt to it. After all, no matter where we are, as long as we are together, it is home."

There was a long silence between the two, each lost in their own thoughts.

Although the sun was still warm, it seemed unable to dispel the chill in their hearts.

After a while, Xu Xu broke the silence: "Finish your breakfast first, or you'll have a stomachache if you eat it later if it gets cold."

As she spoke, she forced a smile, trying to lighten the atmosphere.

Xu Jin subconsciously took a bite of the bun, then drank a sip of soy milk, his eyes unconsciously scanning the surroundings, his thoughts having already drifted away.

He kept thinking about Xu Xu's words in his mind, trying to find a reasonable explanation or solution.

However, all this seemed too sudden, making it difficult for him to digest it for a while.

Xu Xu was also weighing his thoughts over and over in his mind, fearing that he would make a wrong judgment and lead them down the wrong path.

The two were not interrupted from their thoughts until Xu Zhun and Xu Qiwei yawned.

After Xu Zhun finished breakfast, Xu Jin took Xu Zhun and Xu Qiwei to the clan school.

As Xu Jin and the other two entered the clan school, they saw Li Wenyuan who had just finished class.

Li Wenyuan looked at them in surprise, with a hint of confusion in his eyes, and then he looked outside the clan school, as if looking for something.

Seeing this, Xu Jin hurriedly stepped forward and replied respectfully: "Sir, we have some questions and we came to ask for your advice."

Upon hearing this, Li Wenyuan withdrew his gaze from outside the door and fixed it on Xu Jin and the other two. He already understood a little bit.

He nodded and motioned for them to follow him to the public housing.

The smell of books filled the air in the public room. After Li Wenyuan sat down, he looked at Xu Jin with a hint of concern in his tone: "Where are the others? Why are only the three of you back? Did you encounter any trouble?"

"Mu Feng and the others continued their study trip, and only the three of us came back." Xu Jin replied, revealing a hint of helplessness in his tone.

Li Wenyuan frowned slightly, and was even more confused: "Why did you interrupt your study tour?"

Xu Jin took a deep breath and told Li Wenyuan everything that happened during his study tour, including his encounter with Master Xuanqing at the Bixia Temple and what he said.

He tried to remain calm, but the helplessness and worry in his tone were hard to conceal.

"The immortal said that we had an adventure, but we really don't understand what that means. Moreover, he asked us to come back, and we were worried that something might have really happened at home, so we decided to interrupt our study tour." After Xu Jin finished speaking, he stared at Li Wenyuan, looking forward to the teacher's answer.

Originally Xu Jin didn't want to mention the adventure, but when Master Xuanqing was speaking, Li Mufeng and others heard it. Instead of trying to hide it, it would be better to be open and honest, which would be more convincing.

After listening to this, Wen Yuan fell into a long period of contemplation.

His eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about some profound question. The public house fell into silence for a while, and only the occasional bird song outside the window broke the tranquility.

After a long while, Li Wenyuan slowly spoke: "Since he said so, he must have his reasons. Fate is often unpredictable. Since you are back, you should just stay in the clan school for now."

Xu Jin looked at Li Wenyuan and couldn't help asking, "Sir, do you think this real person's words are credible? Is it really not appropriate for us to continue traveling and studying?"

Li Wenyuan smiled when he heard this: "The world is unpredictable and fate is hard to predict. Sometimes, some seemingly accidental things actually hide profound truths behind them."

"Since the real person said so, maybe there really is something we don't know. However, no matter what the future holds, you must remember that you must not neglect your studies, and your character must be firm."

Xu Jin nodded, as if he had realized something. He looked at Xu Zhun and Xu Qiwei, and saw that they were both in deep thought, as if they were thinking about their own thoughts.

"Sir, what should we do now?" Xu Zhun asked, with a hint of confusion in his voice.

Li Wenyuan stood up, walked to the window, looked out and said slowly: "Since the real person asked you to come back, then you should study in the clan school with peace of mind during this period. Perhaps the real adventure is right beside you, but you haven't noticed it yet."

Hearing this, Xu Jin and Xu Zhun felt relieved. The question about the adventure was finally covered up.

When they left the clan school, the students started to leave one after another. Xu Jin and Xu Zhun thought about it, quickly went to Chen Zeyun's house and the clan leader's house, explained the situation and went back.

After Xu Jin returned, he told Xu Xu in detail about Li Wenyuan's views.

Xu Xu pondered for a while and said, "We'd better make preparations for both situations."

Hearing this, Xu Zhun frowned slightly, with a trace of confusion and worry in his eyes. He looked at Xu Xu, with a puzzled tone: "What should we do? Do we really have to give up everything here?"

He looked at Xu Xu, waiting for her answer.

Xu Xu sighed with a sad look on his face and said, "If we have to live in the modern world in the end, we must prepare something to rely on to stay in the modern world. We can't go there empty-handed, as that will only make it more difficult for us to move forward."
