Chapter 154 Chao Chao: So Strange
However, as the sound of the reading gradually spread, the expressions of the officials in the court became more and more shocked.
"...When Aunt Yu was about to be chopped, a dazzling light suddenly fell from the sky, blinding the assassin's eyes...The light automatically locked onto the assassin, allowing us to capture everyone without any effort...After interrogation..."
All the officials felt like they were hearing a fairy tale. It turned out that this was how the energy value was reset to zero, and that this was how the wishes made every morning could save people?
After the memorial was read, the court fell into deathly silence.
But immediately afterwards, a buzz of discussions suddenly arose. Some people were amazed, some found it outrageous, some speculated that the memorial seemed exaggerated, and some simply felt that Tianmu had great magical powers.
Emperor Jingxuan sat back in his chair. He had slowly digested the contents of the memorial. After being shocked, he calmed down after listening to the discussions among his people.
But after a while, he frowned again, his tone carrying a hint of disappointment, "So this is how Tianmu saves people. I'm afraid that immortality is impossible."
He thought that the system was saving people, perhaps by being struck by lightning, or by a safety shield directly protecting Lin Lan and the others.
If it had such magical powers, then it could have the ability to make people immortal, right?
Of course, the strange sight of light falling from the sky still shocked him.
Cao Qing, who was nearby, heard Emperor Jingxuan's mumbling. He lowered his head, looked at his nose, and looked at his heart, without saying a word.
Your Majesty has indeed thought of this and is actually dreaming of immortality.
Emperor Jingxuan was only absent-minded for a moment, and the discussion among the officials had already become heated.
Someone stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this is unbelievable. Making a wish every morning can actually cover our entire Great Qi. It can even hurt people's lives. The power of the Sky Curtain is really too great."
Emperor Jingxuan raised his head, and another official agreed, "Your Majesty, Lord He's words make sense, especially since Chaochao can fulfill a wish when her energy value reaches 1,000. Doesn't that mean Chaochao can make many wishes in the future? Other things are fine, but Chaochao's wish can obviously affect Daqi. If the wishes she makes in the future are still related to Daqi, then we will be too passive."
Emperor Jingxuan had certainly thought of this, and he even thought about it more: What if Chao Chao's wish was related to the destruction of the country...
When he thought of this, Emperor Jingxuan couldn't control his expression.
He rubbed his forehead and said, "Don't think too much. Chaochao is so young, there is no way he could make such a wish... right?"
"What do you think, my dear ministers?" Emperor Jingxuan asked, "Can we control what wishes Chao Xu makes?"
What a joke, they don’t even have the ability to turn off the skylight.
Everyone looked at each other, and someone carefully raised an opinion, "Your Majesty, we really can't control Chao Chao's thoughts, but... can Chaoyang Salesian Home be suspended so that Chao Chao's energy value doesn't increase so quickly?"
Song Ren, the Junior Official of the Dali Temple, could not help but laugh out loud, "Chao Chao's energy value is rising fast, but it has little to do with us. Of the one thousand energy values, Da Qi only accounts for ninety-five in total, less than one-tenth."
Yu Kangsheng agreed, "Mr. Song is right. Even if Chaoyang Salesian Home is demolished and not rebuilt, it won't change anything. The Salesian Home is just the icing on the cake, not the decisive role."
"No matter how small a mosquito's leg is, it's still meat. Maybe when the orphanage is built, the energy value will suddenly soar by hundreds or thousands..."
There was a disagreement and the crowd started arguing again.
Emperor Jingxuan was having a headache when he heard someone say, "The sky is bright."
Chaochao got up. She was going to Wucheng today, so she went to bed early last night.
Although she was very anxious for a while when her energy value was reset to zero at first, she was still very worried about the safety of Sister Lin Lan and the others.
But mom is right, Sister Lin Lan and the others must have made money, and their wish has come true.
Chao Chao felt very satisfied when she thought that her wish had helped them. The thing she had been thinking about was finally accomplished. A huge burden was lifted from her heart and she slept soundly.
However, compared to her high spirits, Jian Yunsang and the others were obviously much more listless.
After Chao Chao fell asleep last night, the four of them gathered together for a small meeting. The content of the meeting was about how energy value could transcend the limitations of time and space and connect the ancient and future generations.
Last time at Fancheng Hospital, Jian Yunsang had speculated that Chao Chao's energy values, which were of unknown origin, might have originated from ancient times. But this speculation was rather outrageous, and since such energy values had not risen since then, the matter was temporarily shelved and not discussed further.
But this time, the system really gave them a big surprise. No, to be precise, it was a shock.
It’s fine that it can fulfill wishes, but it can actually fulfill the wishes of the ancients and even... save the ancients???
In this way, they could almost be sure that the inexplicably rising energy values came from ancient times.
This gave several people a headache.
Finally, it was Song Zhen who said, "Fortunately, this is a charity system. So far, it's all due to doing good deeds. This can be considered as accumulating blessings, which is good for Chao Chao. If Chao Chao was bound by some vicious system and needed to do bad things to accumulate energy, that would be terrible."
These words finally comforted them a lot.
However, despite this, they all suffered from insomnia.
Therefore, when Chao Chao sat at the dining table to eat breakfast, he was facing four silent adults.
She tilted her head to look at everyone, thought for a moment, and asked, "Dad, Mom, Grandpa and Grandma are unhappy, is it because I have no energy left? It doesn't matter, we can still save it. I will do more good deeds in the future and save it soon. Then, I can make a wish again. You can tell me what wishes you have and I will help you realize them, so don't be unhappy, okay?"
The four of them were stunned. He Pu smiled bitterly, then immediately raised his head and said, "We adults have gotten so caught up in a dead end that Chao Chao has to enlighten us. This is really inappropriate. We should listen to Chao Chao and stop thinking too much. Come, eat first. After you finish eating, you still have to go to Wucheng. Don't delay."
Chao Chao nodded vigorously, but halfway through, he suddenly froze.
This familiar expression came again. Jian Yunsang opened his mouth, but before he could ask her this time, he saw Chaochao get down from the chair and suddenly jumped.
"I, I was right, the energy value will be there soon. I'm increasing again..."
But just after he finished speaking, Chao Chao frowned tightly, "How strange."
"What's so strange?" Song Zhen asked nervously.
