Chapter 593 Journey to Mount Tai
Little Su Bao was slightly taken aback, raised her eyes, and seemed to see two figures.
Yunmo was also stunned for a moment. He remembered that his mother's name contained the character "Die" (蝶).
His hands trembled slightly, and his eyes were moist.
The image of his parents protecting him as he died slowly faded away, and all he could see were images of his parents and himself being happy together.
The butterfly that had landed on the mica memorial tablet slowly flew up and landed on Yunmo's head. Another butterfly flew over and landed on Yunmo's shoulder.
Yun Qi was stunned at first when she saw this scene, and then tears streamed down her face.
Who says men don't cry? They're just not heartbroken enough.
"Big brother and sister-in-law, you're back! I knew it! You must have been watching over us all along!"
Yun Qi said softly that he was almost raised by his older brother and sister-in-law. When he was little, he called his older brother, sister-in-law, father and mother.
I gradually changed my habits as I grew older.
The butterfly seemed to sense something and flew back to Su Bao.
Little Su Bao vaguely seemed to see a beautiful woman reach out and touch her head.
She looked up and saw the woman smiling at her.
There was also a man with stubble on his face looking at Su Bao, his eyes full of authority, yet also with a gratified smile.
"Bowing to the parents twice!"
Zhou Zhenghai, who was standing to the side, paused, his heart filled with shock, and his tone became serious.
Xiao Su Bao and Yun Mo slowly knelt down before the two memorial tablets.
"Husband and wife bow to each other!"
The butterfly slowly rose and hovered above the two of them, seemingly carrying a hint of reluctance.
"Send...to...the bridal chamber!" Zhou Zhenghai shouted, raising his voice as he looked at the auspicious time.
The butterflies were in front, and the newlyweds were behind; they seemed to be leading Su Bao and Yun Mo into the room.
It was already dark outside, but the lights were still on.
The red lanterns illuminate the path to the future.
Two butterflies flew closely in front of the two people.
Yunmo's eyes were red and brimming with tears.
It looks like it could fall at any moment.
But he knew his father didn't like seeing people cry, especially boys.
"Yunmo, your parents are very happy, and they will become stars to protect us!"
Xiao Su Bao's voice drifted over slowly, seemingly carrying a strange, magical power.
And now, they are standing in front of their new house.
The maids and servants stood quietly on both sides.
The two butterflies seemed to have completed their mission, and slowly took flight.
It's already October, and there shouldn't be any butterflies at this time of year!
The two butterflies flew higher and higher, as if heading towards the crescent moon hanging in the sky.
Under the soft moonlight, the butterfly disappeared, and in the sky there seemed to be two particularly bright stars, their starlight extremely gentle.
Yunmo pursed his lips, looked up at the sky, and after an unknown amount of time, slowly withdrew his gaze.
No one urged them on during this process; everyone looked up at the sky with Yunmo.
Although Xiao Su Bao was wearing a veil and couldn't see the sky, she could still feel the warmth firsthand.
"Su Bao, let's go back to our room!"
Yunmo took a deep breath. He was seventeen years old now, a young man full of vigor and looking incredibly handsome today.
Back in the room, Yunmo lifted Su Bao's veil, revealing a scale beam, perfectly suited to her needs.
The girl's face looked even more beautiful in the dim candlelight.
"You may all leave!"
Yunmo spoke to the people serving him.
Xiang'er was taken aback and wanted to say something, but Su Bao also spoke up: "Have someone prepare some food. Xiang'er, bring over the things I prepared earlier!"
Su Bao looked at Xiang'er, who immediately nodded: "Yes, Miss!"
After everyone in the room left, Yunmo's cheeks flushed slightly.
Tonight's banquet will be over soon, and he'll be there to offer his toasts.
But at this moment, Yunmo felt a strange sense of fulfillment.
"It's okay, you still have me from now on!"
Su Bao's voice wasn't very loud, but it seemed to have a magical quality.
Yunmo smiled, and it was incredibly beautiful.
He usually has a stern face, not because he likes it, but because nothing can evoke his emotions.
But Su Bao was an exception. When Yun Mo saw Su Bao, he felt as if he had seen Su Bao somewhere before.
He didn't know why, but he didn't feel disgusted by the red she sent him; instead, he was filled with joy.
"Good boy!" Su Bao tiptoed and reached out to pat Yun Mo's head.
The boy paused, his cheeks flushed slightly, and grabbed Su Bao's hand.
"I'm not Baihu and his gang!"
Su Bao's appearance was so similar to how she coaxed Bai Hu and the others before.
The little girl was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter. Her large, curved eyes were incredibly beautiful.
Yunmo smiled too.
He knew Su Bao had eaten something, but thinking about what had happened today, he still said, "You rest a little longer. I'll come back when I'm done with my work!"
Yunmo reached out and ruffled the little girl's hair, a hint of a smile in his eyes.
Little Su Bao nodded.
Yunmo went to deal with the guests, while Su Bao changed her clothes and prepared their belongings for their departure.
Every time they get married, they have to go to Mount Tai.
They need to get to Mount Tai faster, since no one knows the situation there.
When Yunmo returned, he reeked of alcohol and had to be carried back by a servant.
Su Bao was taken aback, and her brows furrowed slightly.
She reached out and pulled Yunmo directly from the servant's body.
After thinking for a moment, the little girl simply picked up Yunmo in a princess carry.
The servant was momentarily stunned, but then, with a forced smile, he said a few auspicious words to Su Bao and walked out.
The story about their wife, who looks soft and cute but is actually strong enough to uproot a willow tree, spread like wildfire.
No wonder their young master is so well-behaved. It's just that if their young master angers the young mistress, he probably won't be able to leave his room!
Su Bao had no idea that Yun Mo, whom she was holding, had a flushed face, and his ears and neck were also red.
He absolutely cannot wake up right now!
I wouldn't dare!
Once the door was closed, Su Bao looked at Yun Mo in her arms.
"Mo Bao, if you don't open your eyes, I might..."
The little girl tilted her head, looking at Yunmo with her big eyes.
Yunmo could feel the little girl's face leaning closer.
He suddenly remembered something his second brother from the Tang family had once said: you must never run away when your wife gets close.
If you don't dodge, it's a kiss; if you dodge, it's a slap!
Does Su Bao want to kiss herself?
Yunmo rarely let his mind wander like this, after all, today was their wedding day!
However, in the next instant, Yunmo felt his body suddenly sink. He opened his eyes and landed steadily on the ground.
"Pfft, haha!" Su Bao suddenly burst out laughing when she saw Yun Mo's slightly embarrassed and angry expression.
At this moment, the little girl seemed to be radiating a soft glow.
Yunmo gave Su Bao a resentful look, then immediately began to take off her clothes.
Little Su Bao's smile froze instantly, and she quickly turned around.
"Mo Bao, next time you take off your clothes, could you please tell me in advance?" Su Bao said, blushing.
"Oh, I'm going to take off my clothes!" Yunmo readily agreed and said it very readily.
Su Bao...
Yunmo changed into a moon-white long robe and carried a lot of silver notes with him.
All of this is what he has earned over the years.
Some of them were left behind by my parents.
Without lingering, the two left the Yun family before anyone else knew.
At the city gate, the emperor and the second prince were waiting.
Upon seeing Yunmo and Subao approach, the emperor's gaze fell upon Subao.
The little girl wore her hair in a woman's bun, making her look much more mature.
Only those eyes remained bright.
"You should return as soon as possible. Remember, be extremely careful!"
The emperor gave his instructions.
"yes!"
Yunmo and Subao bowed in unison.
The second prince rolled his eyes at the emperor, then took out a lot of silver from his pocket.
"When traveling, you must have some money on you. This bundle contains Su Bao's clothes, and there are gold leaves and the like attached to the edges of the clothes. If you encounter an emergency, those can be used as money!"
The second prince gave a few instructions, then, as if remembering something, he patted Su Bao's head.
"Your second uncle may not know much else, but I'll teach you one thing: when you're out and about, your safety is the most important thing!"
"If things really don't work out, just come back. Even if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up!"
The Second Prince truly treated Xiao Su Bao as his niece, taking every word he spoke very seriously.
Su Bao nodded, her lips curving into a smile.
The third prince glanced at the two of them and also took out a small bundle, though it was smaller than the second prince's.
"These are some maps I've collected, as well as some dangerous areas. Please be very careful when you leave!"
The third prince's eyes showed a hint of worry, but he didn't say anything more.
The emperor looked at his two younger brothers, and then looked at Su Bao and Yun Mo.
"Have a safe journey. Second brother is right, your safety is more important than anything else!"
The emperor patted Yunmo on the shoulder, his voice very solemn.
Tang Bugui and the others also wanted to send Su Bao, but unfortunately they had no way to do so.
They couldn't be absent today, so they had to stay.
Apart from the Qian family, no one in Tang knew that Xiao Su Bao had left today.
But Qian knew even better that this couldn't be said.
"Thank you, Uncle Emperor, Second Imperial Uncle, Third Imperial Uncle." Su Bao bowed slightly to the three of them, her eyes full of sincerity.
The second prince wanted to say something, but in the end, he pursed his lips and didn't say anything.
Yunmo took Subao's hand, and the two of them, carrying their bundles, headed out of the city.
This time, they couldn't use a carriage, and Xiao Qinglong was unconscious and unable to help.
Little Wu Mao flew over after they left the city and landed in front of Little Su Bao.
The white tiger appeared before Su Bao, carrying a slightly larger little green turtle.
The two of them, along with their limbs, slowly made their way towards Mount Tai.
Mount Tai is at least a month away from here, and since they can only walk there, it will take them at least two or three months.
Fortunately, both of them knew how to use light-footed kung fu.
Su Bao and Yun Mo exchanged a glance, then quickly left.
On the city wall, the emperor watched Su Bao and Yun Mo leave, his emotions a complex mix.
"Brother, don't worry, everything will be alright!" The second prince walked to his elder brother's side, a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
The emperor glanced at the second prince, then seemed to realize something: "What are your plans for marriage?"
The Second Prince...
"Big brother, my stomach hurts, I have to go!"
Before the emperor could speak again, the second prince had already disappeared.
The emperor then looked at his third brother.
The third brother was slightly taken aback, but then revealed a helpless expression.
"I'm waiting for my second brother!"
After saying that, the Third Prince also left!
Watching the two leave, the emperor felt somewhat helpless. He wore a black cloak, and his eyes held a strange light.
I hope they have a safe journey.
A hint of helplessness flickered in the emperor's eyes.
Half a month later, the first snow fell in the Great Shang Kingdom.
Su Bao and Yun Mo had also traveled halfway.
The two looked much thinner and more energetic than before.
They looked at the village, a hint of coldness flashing in their eyes.
This must be the legendary ghost village!
When they arrived, they had heard about the ghost village, which was only lively at night, while during the day, the entire village was extremely quiet.
Little Su Bao couldn't help but think of the red-eyed monster from before.
Those monsters seemed to be nocturnal.
More importantly, conjunctivitis is contagious!
Thinking of this, Su Bao and Yun Mo also became a little nervous.
As the sky grew darker, the two slowly walked towards the village.
Almost the instant the sun set, the entire village seemed to transform from quiet to bustling.
"Oh, I slept so well!"
A voice came from behind.
Immediately afterwards, the door closest to the outside was pushed open.
An old man, who looked no different from an ordinary person, came out.
"Oh, we have guests!" The old man smiled when he saw Su Bao and Yun Mo.
Little Su Bao's third eye was open, but strangely, she couldn't see the aura of these people.
These people seem to exist.
"Oh my, we really have guests! It's been a long time since our village has had any visitors!"
Just then, an old woman came out of her house, carrying a basket of clothes, seemingly intending to do laundry.
Gradually, the doors of each household opened, and they appeared as normal as ever.
"Sir, we've just arrived here too. Do you know how to get to Mount Tai?"
Yunmo spoke to the old man.
The old man paused slightly, then smiled: "Mount Tai is very far away, young man, what are you going there for?"
“Yes, Mount Tai has been quite restless lately. I heard it was abandoned by the gods!” another young man chimed in.
The young man was quite cute, and when he saw Xiao Su Bao, he couldn't help but smile.
Yunmo stood in front of Su Bao, his gaze towards the person carrying a hint of hostility.
The young man paused, then quickly said, "Young man, don't misunderstand. I just noticed that your wife looks somewhat like my younger sister. It's just that my younger sister has been gone for many years and hasn't returned yet!"
Just then, Xiao Su Bao sensed something was wrong, and his eyes scanned the crowd.
