Chapter 69
The little fat boy thought his disguise was perfect. His chubby cheeks puffed up and then deflated quietly.
Little did they know that the cub's cute little thoughts had already been exposed by its big, round, black, watery eyes, and Jiang Mingyan, who was holding the cub, could see them clearly.
However, although Jiang Mingyan really wanted to poke Sui Sui's cheeks and leave a few soft little indentations, he suppressed the impulse in his heart, gave the little fat boy face, and pretended that he knew nothing.
"Sui Sui, do you want to go to the library and take a look?" However, the elder brother still asked the boy with a smile that had a bit of evil intentions.
"...I want to." The little fat boy responded reluctantly, humming in a baby voice with some pitiful emotions.
"Sui Sui, what's wrong with you? You're unhappy!" The spirit noticed something was wrong with the little spirit, and couldn't help but speak hurriedly: "Who? Who made Sui Sui unhappy?! Yueyue, hit him! Hit him!"
"Woof!" The big black dog that came out of the palace also wagged its tail in agreement.
It's you~
The little fat boy grumbled in his heart, but he also knew that this was a vent of anger.
Alas, Suisui is a reasonable cub.
The little fat boy thought so, while signaling to the big black dog that he was fine, he comforted the spirit of the weapon: "Yueyue, Suisui is fine, Suisui is just a little hungry~"
The next moment, the little fat boy's belly began to "gurgle" in response.
The little fat boy, who was just looking for an excuse, opened his black eyes wide.
...are you so cooperative?
Jiang Mingyan looked at the silly little guy in his arms, and a gentle smile flashed across his phoenix eyes.
"He's really hungry." He rubbed the little fat boy's round head and looked at the barrier above his head.
He and Sui Sui were now inside the spiritual vessel. The light inside the spiritual vessel was always bright, and outside was the endless sea, so naturally they couldn't see the outside sky.
But Jiang Mingyan thought that it took a long time from falling into the river to the formation of the heavenly tribulation.
Suisui only ate something at the inn that morning, so it was normal for him to be hungry now.
"I know where to find food!" The spirit replied quickly this time: "Sui Sui will go eat first, and then go to the library!"
I have to say, this suggestion touched the little fat boy's heart.
If Suisui had ears on his head, those big furry ears would probably stand up in an instant.
"Brother..." The little fat boy tilted his little face up and looked at his elder brother eagerly.
Let’s go eat first. The library is right there, and it won’t run away.
"Dahei must be hungry too~"
Although the big black dog was not hungry at all, it still barked a few times to show its agreement.
Jiang Mingyan's heart softened when he saw the little guy's wet and well-behaved eyes.
"Okay, then let's fill Sui Sui and Da Hei's stomachs first, and then go to the library." Jiang Mingyan lifted the chubby child up and said indulgently.
"Great! Brother is so nice!" The little fat boy said happily: "Sui Sui likes brother the most!"
"Yeah." Jiang Mingyan responded calmly.
"Woof?"
"What about me? What about me? Yueyue! And Yueyue!"
Along with Jiang Mingyan's voice, there were two other voices.
Sui Sui said very familiarly: "Sui Sui also likes Da Hei and Yue Yue~"
"You are all good friends of Sui Sui!"
Jiang Mingyan lowered his eyes and looked at the kid who spoke sweet words all the time, and a familiar helplessness arose in his heart.
"Woof." The big black dog barked with satisfaction.
"Yueyue also likes Suisui." The spirit of the weapon was also satisfied, and its tone became more lively: "Yueyue will show Suisui and the little spirits the way!"
"Go forward. Do you see the largest palace? Follow the path next to it. It's the third palace on the right..."
Jiang Mingyan held Sui Sui in his arms and walked over according to the instructions of the spirit of the weapon.
"...Yes, it's right here. There's so much food inside!" Seeing Jiang Mingyan and Sui Sui stopped in front of the closed palace door, the spirit of the weapon said happily, "Sui Sui, you can fill your stomach now!"
"Yes~" The little fat boy put his hands on his brother's shoulders, with a sweet and bright smile on his face: "Sui Sui needs to eat a lot of food! Fill your stomach!"
The little fat boy couldn't help but imagine: Will there be mountains of spiritual fruits in there?
...It would be great if brother didn’t limit the amount of spiritual fruits Sui Sui eats every day!
If that happens, Suisui will definitely bury himself in the pile of spiritual fruits!
Sweet spiritual fruits! Endless spiritual fruits!
The little fat boy, dizzy with the beautiful picture he imagined, laughed out loud.
Jiang Mingyan lowered his eyes and glanced at the little guy in his arms.
I don’t know what this kid was thinking about. He was grinning mischievously, like a little mouse that had stolen lamp oil. The hair on his head was trembling, making his head look even more fluffy and round, which was very cute.
Jiang Mingyan twisted his fingertips, said nothing, and pushed the door open with force.
With a "creak", the palace that had been sealed for tens of thousands of years once again welcomed its owner.
However, everything has changed.
All the palaces here are essentially one and the same, and are part of the "Mirror Flowers and Water Moons".
Therefore, even though no one has cleaned the palace for tens of thousands of years, it is still spotless.
But the little fat guy probably doesn't have the mind to pay attention to these details~
The cub was shocked by the mountains of various foods in the hall.
But what attracted the cub's attention most was the pile of spiritual fruits in the corner.
"Wow~" Suisui opened his little mouth wide, his black eyes blinking, like a kitten stunned by the dried fish falling from the sky.
"So many spiritual fruits..."
The baby's wish came true!
Jiang Mingyan was also startled by the food in the palace for a moment, but he quickly calmed down. Then he remembered something and his eyebrows jumped: "Yueyue, where did all this food come from?"
When Sui Sui heard his brother's question, he reluctantly pulled his attention away from the spiritual fruit in front of him that was emitting an alluring glow.
Yes.
Little fat boy, move your head.
Sui Sui still remembered the vision he had seen outside Xihua Town. The men in white were suddenly attacked, falling one after another. How could they have time to deliver food to the palace?
Or, have the men in white always liked to hoard food?
The little fat boy was at a loss.
The spirit of the weapon answered Sui Sui’s doubts: “It’s Yue Yue!”
It pondered for a moment, and when it spoke again, its voice was more steady: "The young Eldar need food, so I collected all the food and sent it to this palace, waiting for the birth of new Eldar."
Sui Sui pursed her lips when she heard this, feeling an indescribable sense of melancholy in her heart.
"Eat quickly! Sui Sui, eat quickly! After eating, let's go to the library!" But the next moment, the spirit of the weapon personally shattered all the emotions in Sui Sui's heart.
"Oh!" Sui Sui responded loudly and heavily.
The spirit of the weapon was puzzled: "Sui Sui, are you unhappy again?"
"No." The little fat boy hugged his brother's neck and muttered, "I'm hungry! I want to eat!"
"After we finish eating, let's go to the library!"
When the word "library" was mentioned, the little fat boy's baby voice turned into a gnashing of teeth.
Jiang Mingyan found many jade pots filled with spirit beast milk in the hall.
He looked at the high-quality spirit beast milk, his eyes moving slightly.
So, when Sui Sui was carried out of the palace by his brother, he had already become a little cub with a sweet milky scent all over his body.
The baby looked at the tall and big library, his chubby face drooping, looking quite dejected and pitiful.
Jiang Mingyan glanced at the baby with a smile and walked into the library.
Books, lots and lots of books.
Sui Sui poked his furry head out to look around, and his eyes started to see stars.
"Sui Sui, stay here with Da Hei first." Jiang Mingyan put the fat kid on the soft chair next to him and gently pinched his soft round cheeks: "Be good."
As he said this, he handed Sui Sui a spiritual fruit.
Sui Sui held the spiritual fruit in her hands, her big eyes sparkling: "Brother, doesn't Sui Sui need to read?"
"I'll go find some books about the spirit race and pure spirits." Jiang Mingyan chuckled, "Today is the first day, there's no rush."
Although I have to read this book anyway, I'll put it off for as long as possible.
The little fat cub was like a kitten that had scratched the curtains and was stomping its furry paws nervously left and right. It was anxiously waiting for the breeder to come home and receive education, but suddenly heard that the breeder would not be home today. Although a nagging was inevitable, the kitten with an ostrich mentality was still dancing with joy.
Moreover, Suisui can eat spiritual fruits while waiting for his brother!
The little fat boy's face was as bright as a little flower with joy.
Looking at the little fat boy who was very easy to satisfy, Jiang Mingyan's eyes were unconsciously filled with smiles.
He couldn't help but lean over and hug Sui Sui, feeling the warm and solid round body of the little fat boy, and his heart was filled with peace.
"Brother is gone." He said finally.
"Okay~" Sui Sui's grandma responded obediently: "Sui Sui is a good boy~"
There were many books in the library, but Jiang Mingyan quickly found the ones he wanted.
They are placed in the most conspicuous place.
"The newly born elves need to understand their own tribe." said the spirit of the weapon.
After it entered the library, the incongruous liveliness in its tone faded away, and every syllable of the old voice contained the calmness honed over a long period of time.
"Have you recovered your memory?" Jiang Mingyan found a place to sit down with a few books.
He and Sui Sui were both on the first floor of the library, separated by several towering bookshelves, so the sound was strangely blocked.
Jiang Mingyan left his spiritual consciousness on Sui Sui's side, so he could "see" the little fat boy happily eating the spiritual fruit, and he didn't hear the conversation here at all.
"No." The spirit sighed, "That part of my memory has been lost along with the part of my body I lost."
"This entire palace complex is just a mirage, just like my body."
It’s a pity that there is a part missing.
"Sui Sui and I once encountered the part of your body that was lost." Jiang Mingyan said calmly.
"I know." The spirit said gently, "You are the spirit race. In my perception, you are very bright."
"That day, I sensed it. It was at that moment that the synaesthesia between my original body and the fragments activated the Tianyu pen stored in my original body, awakening your spiritual patterns."
"Is this the spiritual pattern drawn by the Tianyu pen?" Jiang Mingyan asked.
"No, that is something you were born with. The Tianyu Pen just awakens it." The spirit of the weapon said softly.
Jiang Mingyan looked thoughtful and lowered his head to open the book.
As expected of a book specially prepared for the newborn Eldar, the words on it are not obscure and tell the story of the Eldar in great detail.
The Spirit Race, judging from its name and meaning, is a race born from spiritual energy.
The spiritual energy here is not spiritual energy, but a more original and chaotic force.
When the Eldar are born from their spiritual energy, they are no different from human infants. Furthermore, the Eldar's growth process is almost identical to that of humans, from infant to child, then to teenager and young adult.
Then, the Eldar's appearance will stop at that of a young man.
If they had never embarked on the path of Taoism, the lifespan of the elves would be almost the same as that of humans.
But once they embarked on the path, the gap between the Spiritual Race and other races became apparent. The Spiritual Race was blessed by Heaven, and every member of the tribe was exceptionally gifted. They advanced quickly, had no inner demons, and each one could easily cultivate to the Void Stage.
If we were to say the weak point of the elves, it would probably be the altar in their territory.
The altar is the place where new Eldar are born. Once the altar is destroyed, no new Eldar will be born until the altar is rebuilt.
Seeing this, Jiang Mingyan frowned: "Sui Sui and I were not born in the altar."
There was still a one in ten thousand chance that Jiang Mingyan was pregnant, but the little fat baby was born after Jiang Mingyan waited outside the delivery room for a long time.
"This is indeed a bit strange." The spirit explained, "There have been cases of spirits falling in love with non-spiritual races and having children, but those children were not spirits. They would take after the non-spiritual parent. Only those born from spiritual energy are spirits."
"But you and Sui Sui have spiritual patterns on your foreheads, so you must be from the spirit race."
"Besides, my perception can't be wrong."
"The meaning of my existence is to protect the spirit race." said the spirit of the weapon.
