Chapter 487: Mohist Book
Tianbao sat on the edge of the bed, and when she lowered her eyes, Bai Yu could not see the expression in her eyes.
He squatted down in front of her, looked her up and down, and saw the gloom that she was hiding.
"Yes," he said. "She and Wang Bai must be family. One day, they will be reunited with all their surviving relatives and live happily together. You gave them a paradise on earth. By fate, perhaps they belong there, don't you think?"
The young man's voice was serious and solemn, his beautiful peach blossom eyes were smiling but full of tenderness.
Tianbao looked into those eyes, and a corner of his heart that felt depressed and cold seemed to be drowning in warm water. The coldness dissipated, and his whole heart became warm.
This kind of feeling can easily make people linger.
Tianbao's eyelashes trembled unconsciously, and she felt that the warm water seemed to turn into hot water, making her whole body feel hot.
The unfamiliar emotions and the resulting panic made her suddenly reach out and push the person squatting in front of her away, "Stay away! I'm panicking!"
Bai Yu was caught off guard and was pushed to the ground, "..."
He immediately got up and put his face in front of the girl again, "Really? Are you panicking now? Hey, don't push me. If there's a problem, you have to find the reason! Are you panicking?"
Tian Bao was impressed by his display, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he tried to feel it, "Don't panic anymore."
"...Impossible! Can I get closer?"
"Bai Yu, do you believe I will kick you into the river?"
"Baby, I have a long wound here that hasn't healed yet, so I can't get soaked in water."
“…”
The girl sat there stiffly, as if she was being held captive.
Bai Yu squatted, holding his cheeks with his elbows, and when their eyes met, circles of smiles spread in his eyes.
For so many years, he has always held his heart in front of her, and even if she didn't understand or respond, he never got discouraged or backed off.
I'm even prepared to stay with her like this for the rest of my life, which would be great too.
I didn't expect to get such a pleasant surprise today.
That's good.
He is neither anxious nor greedy.
"Tianbao, while those chirping sparrows are away, let's take stock of what we've gained on this trip?" Bai Yu bent his knees and sat on the deck. This action created some distance between him and the girl.
Seeing this, Tianbao's tense body relaxed quietly. When he went to bed at night, he thought about what happened to him and found it very strange.
There is indeed something important to do right now.
"I've been so busy these days that I almost forgot." She opened her palm, revealing a book. "Look at this. I collected it."
In the deserted palace of Nansang Palace, she collected a lot of things. The only valuable thing was this book. The rest were just some jewelry and weapons, which were of little use.
Bai Yu took the book and raised his eyebrows in surprise when he saw the words on the cover.
The paper of the book is old and yellowed, and it is unknown how many years it has been stored. It is bound with thread, and three words are written on the ephedra yellow cover - Mozhe Shu.
"The Mohist Book? Something related to the Mohist school?" He muttered, flipping open the cover, and then remained silent until he had finished reading everything recorded in the book.
He closed the book and put it back in Tianbao's hand. The two looked at each other in silence for a long time.
What is recorded in Mohist books is actually the origin of the magic weapon.
"Five thousand divine weapons, all of them are disciples of the Mohist School. At that time, the Mohist School was at its peak. The disciples were not only proficient in mechanical engineering, but also talented in martial arts. For a time, their popularity was unmatched... But as a result, their size attracted the wind, bringing disaster upon themselves. The disciples of the Mohist School were murdered by a vicious scheme." Bai Yu's eyes were hazy, thinking about the contents of the book, with an indescribable complex feeling. "The Mohist School was resentful and used secret techniques to transform the murdered disciples into immortal divine weapons. This not only prolonged their lives, but also gave the Mohist School the foundation to compete with its rivals. This is how the Mohist School has survived to this day. Truly..."
"A tall tree attracts the wind, and evil winds always blow from the royal family. It all comes down to ambition," Tian Bao said in a faint voice. "The Mo family hundreds of years ago, and the Huo family decades ago, both suffered similar fates. It's a pity that the Huo family were all scholars, and ended up almost extinct."
"So, Wang Bai and Shi Ying are indeed relatives. Their skills speak volumes about the power of divine weapons. No wonder so many nations are so eager to acquire them. But whether it's the Huo family, known for their ability to govern through civility, or the Mohist family, known for their ability to maintain peace through military might, they all ultimately met with disastrous consequences. Neither civil nor military prowess can withstand the schemes of the evil. Might as well be mediocre."
Bai Yu raised his eyes, his momentary emotional fluctuations turning into calmness. "Tianbao, in the eyes of the other nations, you are now like the Mo family and the Huo family in the past. We must be more careful from now on. After we return this time, don't come out unless necessary. The poison in your body must be cured first."
"Yeah." Tianbao responded.
"Is there any movement from Buyu Jian?"
"Not yet, but the cocoon is brighter."
Bai Yu pursed his lips and said, "Let's just hatch the cocoon well. There's no need to worry about anything else. Yan Changkong is in our hands, and Nan Sang won't dare to act rashly. As for the magic weapons in their hands, there's no need to worry about them. They won't dare to bring them to you."
"Yes, they won't send sheep into the tiger's mouth."
"Have you ever said that about yourself?"
"Do you have a more appropriate explanation?"
"No, Tigress."
The people sitting in the cabin above drinking tea and chatting soon heard the screams and pleas for mercy from below, and they all remained extremely calm.
Du Buqin took a sip of tea and said, "I don't know who Bai Xiaozi inherited his personality from. He's just so mean. He has to provoke Tian Bao every day, but he still doesn't get beaten enough."
"Old Du is wrong. Young people become closer when they play and fight." Mo Liren laughed, seeing through it but not saying anything. "Why don't you take a look, besides beating up Bai Yu, who else did Tian Bao beat up?"
The wheat ears next to it have a nose that is not a nose, eyes that are not eyes, and their eyes are rolled back.
What? Who else did you beat?
Has it become her sister's problem?
It was obvious that Bai Yu had evil intentions eight hundred years ago!
It’s a pity that my sister is not smart enough, otherwise she would have kicked Bai Yu to the sky long ago!
"Little Mai Sui, aren't you happy?" Bing'er stared at Little Mai Sui for a while. Seeing her rolling her eyes, she leaned over to comfort her, "Shall we go find Yan Changkong and discuss the real business with him?"
Xiaomai Sui immediately straightened his eyes and pulled Bing'er towards the cabin, "Bing'er, you have a really good memory. If you hadn't told me, I would have almost forgotten that there was this person on our ship!"
Since boarding the ship, Yan Changkong has been placed in the cabin and has not appeared. Now Xiao Mai Sui remembered that the guy had a broken leg and could not get out of bed.
The two of them ran into Yan Changkong's house excitedly, opened the door, but did not go in.
Little Wheat Ear poked his head in and looked at the man's sleeve hanging on the side of the bed. "Prince Nansang, are you awake? I want to discuss something with you!"
After a moment, the man's voice came faintly, "Thank you for your kindness. Miss, if you have something to say, just tell me directly. How dare Yan not respond?"
