Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, Baili Wanwan secretly knocked on Wan Suizhou's door.
"I don't want to eat today, so there's no need to try to persuade me."
Baili Wanwan called out to Grandpa Wan in a soft, sweet voice. Lin Yang'er, who had also woken up, rubbed her sleepy eyes and asked, "Fairy sister, what happened? Shouldn't we go to the academy?"
Lin Yang'er never had the habit of eating breakfast. Usually, she would wait for Baili Wanwan to get ready before the two of them went to the academy together.
"The academy is not holding classes today," Baili Wanwan replied listlessly.
After Lin Yang'er inquired about the ins and outs of the matter, she and Baili Wanwan stood around the door, waiting for Wan Suizhou for a long time.
Finally, after sending Lin Yang'er away, Baili Wanwan knocked on the door again and said, "Grandpa Wan, there's something I want to tell you. Do you really want to find the sunken ship?"
These words worked, and Wan Suizhou quickly opened the door.
Baili Wanwan poked her head inside and saw that the room was in a mess.
It's likely that Wan Suizhou was too angry, so he took his anger out on the room.
"Grandpa Wan, don't be sad. How about Wanwan sings you a song?"
Baili Wanwan tidied up the room, then lay down on the small table, staring intently at the books laid out on it.
She had absolutely no interest in these books.
It's all just Confucian sayings, but it doesn't really explain anything meaningful.
What are your thoughts on the shipwreck?
Wan Suizhou got straight to the point, knowing that Baili Wanwan was no ordinary girl.
Therefore, he believed everything Baili Wanwan said.
"Grandpa Wan, don't you want to hear Wanwan sing anymore?" Baili Wanwan had her hair in two little braids today, looking very rustic, but she was still incredibly cute.
"Sing!"
Having received an affirmative answer, Baili Wanwan mustered all her strength and sang a couple of songs, only to find that the songs she had learned from the storyteller were not so easy to sing.
"Wanwan doesn't seem to have that ability. Is Grandpa Wan going to make fun of Wanwan?" Baili Wanwan said, hanging her head.
Her behavior amused Wan Suizhou, who suddenly wanted to tease the little girl in front of him, so he pushed a table full of books in front of her: "I see you are very interested in these books, why not learn more knowledge? You might need it someday."
Upon hearing this, Baili Wanwan's face turned even paler.
Instead of making her learn Confucius's sayings, it would be better to have her learn some recipes.
Wan Suizhou, however, calmed down and began to study a book carefully, holding it tightly in his hand.
About an hour later, Baili Wanwan was so sleepy that she raised her head and stared at Wan Suizhou with a pitiful look.
"Grandpa Wan, Wanwan doesn't want to study anymore. Let's talk about the shipwreck."
With that map of Bailiwanwan, we can explore the shipwreck anytime, anywhere.
However, remembering Lan Xuerong's warning, she dared not use it lightly.
Using it too much will definitely have some impact on your health.
But there's no time to worry about that right now.
Baili Wanwan thought that after using it this time, she wouldn't use it normally anymore.
After comforting herself, Baili Wanwan finally told the truth.
The people of the previous dynasty were not stupid either; the ships they built were made of the finest materials, and ordinary winds and waves could not swallow them.
Even so, they still encountered a tsunami, and the entire ship was submerged in the deep sea.
As for the location of the shipwreck, it is in the deepest part of the seabed.
For an ordinary person to go to sea and try to salvage treasures from a sunken ship is clearly a pipe dream.
"Grandpa Wan, Wanwan has another secret to tell you..." Baili Wanwan bit her lip.
It seems that the fact that she is a mermaid can no longer be hidden.
Grandpa Wan is a trustworthy person, so can we tell him?
Wan Suizhou remained silent, creating a tense atmosphere. Baili Wanwan hesitated to speak for a moment.
This solemn atmosphere lasted for a long time before Wan Suizhou said, "There's nothing to hide from me, just tell me."
"Wanwan, actually Wanwan is a mermaid!"
Baili Wanwan's face was serious; she could already imagine how surprised Grandpa Wan would be when he heard the news.
To everyone's surprise, Wan Suizhou chuckled and then picked up Baili Wanwan.
"I know you're a good swimmer, but illness can come from the mouth, and trouble can come from the mouth. You shouldn't say such things to outsiders in the future, because if someone with ulterior motives hears them, it might be detrimental to you."
So, it turns out they didn't believe her...
Baili Wanwan was taken aback, and she hurriedly explained.
"Wanwan is serious, Wanwan really is a mermaid."
Wan Suizhou chuckled and patted her head: "Alright, mermaid, I believe you. But mermaids are bound to be extraordinary. If you have any abilities, why not show them off?"
"I……"
Her abilities can only be displayed at sea.
"Grandpa Wan went to the beach with Wanwan, and Wanwan will show you!"
Unable to resist Baili Wanwan's insistence, Wan Suizhou could only sneak along.
At this time of day, the beach is very quiet, and you can hardly see anyone.
The villagers always choose to go out to sea when the weather is sunny and there is no wind or rain, but today is also a cloudy day.
Without saying a word, Baili Wanwan jumped into the sea with ease and then used her mind to open up a small space in the seawater.
The sea seemed to have stopped moving, and the surrounding waters had lost their flow, as if a new world had been opened up.
Wan Suizhou rubbed his eyes as if he were witnessing something fantastical.
He completely disregarded all of Confucius's sayings and the notion that there are no ghosts or monsters in the world.
For a moment, it felt like a dream.
"Grandpa Wan, come with Wanwan."
Baili Wanwan stood inside a water column and waved to Wan Suizhou.
Left with no other choice, Wan Suizhou had to follow.
In the deep sea, such a space has been opened up, and the surrounding fish seem to have frozen in place.
Wan Suizhou followed cautiously, his feet touching the soft, yet terrifying, water.
"Grandpa Wan, there's no need to be afraid, it's safe."
The shipwreck is located far away, requiring a walk of more than ten miles.
Baili Wanwan felt the speed was too slow, so she simply summoned a whale to carry them across.
The shipwreck is very large, and due to its age, it is even covered with seaweed.
Fish made their home on it.
Bai Liwan circled the shipwreck and indeed found many large boxes inside, as well as some skeletal remains that were stuck.
Over the years, the bones have been washed very clean by the water, and the entire skeleton is pure white.
"These treasures are not easy to carry up." On the seabed, Baili Wanwan's voice was somewhat muffled.
Wan Suizhou naturally knew this, but this time he also believed that Baili Wanwan was a mermaid.
