Chapter 71
Sui Sui's dark eyes widened in disbelief, her mouth opened into a silly circle, and even her baby voice had a silly, dumb tone: "Huh?"
Looking at the silly little kid in his arms, Jiang Mingyan vaguely imagined a chubby little kitten, who was happily holding a dried fish and gnawing on it, but suddenly someone snatched the dried fish away from him and forced him down, revealing his soft and furry belly.
Then, the little fat cat, who was still immersed in happiness, felt a chill in his stomach when the wind blew. He meowed stupidly, and his furry little round face and wet round eyes were filled with confusion.
The sudden sense of déjà vu made Jiang Mingyan's cold and indifferent brows soften unconsciously. The self-blame and anger that had just been aroused by the little guy's words, along with the familiar helplessness that surged from the bottom of his heart, silently melted into Sui Sui's ignorant and naive look.
This is a stupid little kid. His thoughts are always twisted and confusing. Why is he angry with the stupid little kid?
In short, just explain things clearly and get the stupid kid out of the dead end.
Jiang Mingyan thought that he always had infinite patience with Sui Sui.
When a stupid kid got into a dead end, he would pull him out.
——What’s so difficult about this?
After thinking it through, Jiang Mingyan placed his palm on Sui Sui's hairy head and patted it vigorously a few times: "Okay, I don't want to think about it anymore. Brother, can you help Sui Sui tie her hair up?"
In the morning, the little bun that Jiang Mingyan had tied for Sui Sui was scattered in the turbulent river. Later, they woke up at the bottom of the Linghai Sea, and a series of events followed one after another, which has continued until now.
——Of course, some of it was because Jiang Mingyan thought the chubby kid with messy hair was cute, so he was deliberately dragging his feet... As for the specific truth, I think only the parties involved know.
"You can tie it into a bun." The little fat boy nudged his furry head in his brother's palm, his chubby face pouting seriously: "But I can't stop thinking about this!"
"We can't go out. This is a very big thing!" the little fat boy emphasized with great sorrow.
Jiang Mingyan's lips curled slightly: "Then Suisui continues to think, brother will tie Suisui's hair."
The little fat boy had no objection and obediently handed his messy little head to his brother.
I am very confident in my brother’s craftsmanship!
So, the relieved little fat boy frowned and fell into deep thought: Sui Sui always felt that Sui Sui knew that I couldn’t go out...
I remember it!
In the vortex of spiritual energy that suddenly appeared, the elder brother closed his eyes and practiced. Although Sui Sui also felt a lot of spiritual energy, because Sui Sui was a pure spiritual body, he was not forcibly dragged into the state of practice like his elder brother. Sui Sui chatted with Yue Yue...
...Yes, Suisui asked Yueyue!
Sui Sui asked when he and his brother could go out. Yue Yue said they could only go out when they grew up.
Later, later my brother will wake up!
The little fat boy finally sorted things out.
It turned out to be the cub himself. He was so busy circling around his brother that he forgot about it!
The culprit turned out to be the cub!!!
The little fat boy's pretty face was wrinkled into a wilted ball.
Woo woo woo, how could Sui Sui forget such an important thing?
You have to grow up to go out...
Wow, how long will that take?
The snow-white little glutinous rice balls suddenly turned into wrinkled fat buns. Jiang Mingyan gently put down the soft strands of hair in his hand and asked the fat bun, "Have you figured it out, Sui Sui? Why are you so worried?"
Sui Sui would explain things pathetically.
Jiang Mingyan frowned slightly.
He had not known before that the little fat boy and the spirit of the weapon had had such a conversation.
Jiang Mingyan deduced that he couldn't go out in a short period of time from the barrier above the palace.
This barrier can remain safe and sound under the thunder tribulation of advancing to the Jindan stage... Moreover, judging by the persistence of the "spiritual race" in the words of the weapon spirit, Jiang Mingyan thought that it would not open the barrier on its own initiative for no reason and send him and Suisui out.
I didn't expect that there was such a premise.
'grow up'.
He and Sui Sui were not in the same age group. If, according to the spirit of the vessel, he reached the age to leave in the future, but Sui Sui was still young, wouldn't that mean they would have to separate?
Jiang Mingyan's eyes darkened.
"Yueyue." He asked, "What conditions must be met in order to leave here?"
The spirit in the library is subtly different from the spirit I first encountered.
"Nascent Soul Stage." The weapon spirit, which had previously only given a vague answer, now said calmly, "The spirits of the Nascent Soul Stage have escaped the period of weakness and have gained the ability to protect themselves."
"When you reach the Great Perfection of the Golden Core and are ready to face the thunder tribulation, I will open the barrier and let you out." It was silent for a moment, then said, "You can take Sui Sui with you. This is your only chance. Otherwise, the barrier will close, and it won't open again until Sui Sui faces the Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation. Forcibly splitting the barrier from the outside is something only cultivators who have overcome the tribulation can do."
Nascent Soul.
Jiang Mingyan pondered these two words carefully in his heart.
In the eyes of the spirit race, only by entering the Nascent Soul stage can one be said to be free from the word "weak and powerless".
Jiang Mingyan pondered the information revealed by the spirit of the weapon in just a few words. Tens of thousands of years later, he got a glimpse of the former splendor of the spirit race from afar and silently.
In Wuzhou, at the Jiang family, and during those sleepless nights when he looked at Sui Sui sleeping peacefully, Jiang Mingyan's greatest wish was to reach the Golden Core Stage and become a Golden Core Stage cultivator.
He wanted to take Sui Sui away from the Jiang family and leave Wu'an City.
He was filled with resentment, and he looked at the main courtyard of the Jiang Mansion with hatred from afar.
Jiang Zhenyu, the head of the Jiang family.
He is a gloomy tree that blocks out the sun, and a mountain that weighs heavily on Jiang Mingyan's head.
But now, unknowingly, Jiang Mingyan has stood at the same level as him.
Jiang Mingyan got the candy he had longed for.
So, Jiang Mingyan looked back again and found that the cold and majestic main courtyard in his memory had long lost its brilliance - the brilliance that he had added to it when he was young.
Jiang Mingyan held the little fat boy in his arms, lowered his eyes slightly, and the curve of his lips seemed to be sarcastic and happy.
"Brother, don't be afraid." Suddenly, there was a rustling sound and the baby's baby voice in his arms.
Suisui struggled to turn over under the 'confinement' of his brother's strong arms and faced his brother.
"Hmm?" Jiang Mingyan looked at the little guy and uttered a soft syllable.
Suisui raised his fat paws and shackled his brother's handsome face, forcing him to look at him. He raised his little chin and said, "Brother, do you remember? Suisui and I agreed that in the Nascent Soul stage, I won't wear a gray robe!"
A smile flashed across Jiang Mingyan's phoenix eyes, and the curve of his lips became pure and gentle. He responded softly: "Remember."
"Now, this agreement will soon be fulfilled!" The little fat boy was beaming with joy: "It's just the Nascent Soul stage, don't be afraid, brother, Sui Sui will still be with you!"
"Yes." Jiang Mingyan looked at the happy little guy with a gentle look: "With Sui Sui by your side, brother is not afraid."
"That's right!" The little fat boy came over and kissed his brother several times, then hugged his brother's neck and laughed: "It will be solved soon~"
"Brother is the best!"
The little fat boy who shouted "Brother is the best" changed his mind the next day.
"Brother is bad! I don't want to practice every year, wow wow wow..." The little fat boy ran out of the hall, chattering and kicking his short legs hard.
The big black dog followed the little fat cub with its tail wagging, its posture relaxed, and its black eyes glanced mockingly at the tall, gray-robed swordsman in the hall.
Jiang Mingyan took a deep breath.
In front of him was a large mahogany table, and the books that had been neatly arranged were now in a mess.
Moreover, the two cushions that should have been placed on the floor were placed on the table and carelessly pressed on the books.
Jiang Mingyan could even see small, gray footprints on the mat.
——Where did the little fat boy get the dust from?
This palace is as white as snow and is extremely clean under the care of the spirit.
Jiang Mingyan got a headache when he thought that Sui Sui's plan to carry mud pits with him, which he had stopped, might have succeeded somewhere he didn't know about.
Jiang Suiyan!
Just now, Jiang Mingyan brought the little fat boy who had just finished breakfast and was playing outside into the hall and placed him on the futon.
Then, he sat on the cushion opposite the little fat boy and began to teach Sui Sui how to practice.
However, the little fat cub made some humming and babbling sounds while his two little paws quietly played with the tail of the big black dog lying behind him.
Jiang Mingyan turned a blind eye at first, but the little fat cub became more and more excessive, and almost lay his entire body on the big black dog.
Jiang Mingyan couldn't help but frown, stood up, and carried the big black dog out.
As a result, when he came back, he found that the little fat boy, who should have been sitting cross-legged on the cushion, had climbed onto the chair, with half of his round body lying on the table, rummaging through the Taoist scriptures he had just copied not long ago.
Before Jiang Mingyan could say anything, the big black dog behind him forced open the door of the hall, ran into the hall and stood there, barking at him.
Accompanied by the barking of the big black dog, the little fat boy climbed down from the chair and ran around the hall noisily.
Looking at the noisy scene of dogs barking and children running in front of him, Jiang Mingyan's eyebrows twitched.
"Jiang Sui Yan." He said calmly.
The little fat cub calmed down, hugged the big black dog's tail, and looked at his brother with his round eyes, not a bit of the naughty look he had just shown when he was running around and shouting.
"Take down the cushion and sit down." Jiang Mingyan said lightly.
The little fat boy tilted his round face up, blinked his big eyes, and didn't move.
Jiang Mingyan lowered his eyes and looked at Sui Sui.
With the chubby little cheeks hanging on his face, the little guy looks innocent and cute.
Jiang Mingyan's anger dissipated a little.
He walked forward a few steps, stood in front of the table, and was about to bend down to take the cushion down.
"Wu La La, if I don't practice for years——"
The little fat boy suddenly ran out with his short legs.
Jiang Mingyan closed his eyes patiently.
"Jiang Suiyan!"
In the end, Sui Sui was dragged back by his brother.
The big black dog was locked in the spirit beast bag. Jiang Mingyan would only let it out when Sui Sui had finished practicing and had learned all the words for today.
The little fat boy sat on the cushion, closed his eyes and practiced with a wronged look on his face.
Jiang Mingyan looked at the little guy sitting on the futon, who looked like a white, plump glutinous rice dumpling, and a slight smile appeared on his cold and lonely handsome face.
Suisui is actually very talented, but he just can't concentrate.
Now that his brother was staring at him without blinking, he soon entered the state of cultivation.
Bad boy.
Jiang Mingyan couldn't help but mutter softly.
…
Time passed as Suisui battled wits and courage with his brother every day to avoid practicing and learning to read.
In a blink of an eye, five years have passed.
