s.""...Understood." I nodded.I went back and told Muchuan about this. Muchuan frowned slightly and said, “Do you think he meant something else”"Yes, suddenly saying that everything under heaven belong...The mask's eyes area has three layers of gauze covering it. I cut off two layers, so people still can't see his face but I can see his eyes up close.
Mu Wanchen definitely knew what I was doing, but he didn't say anything.
He simply reached in and touched the little pearl where the female gu had formed.
However, fortunately he only brushed against the female gu worm and didn't do anything else.
As soon as his hand left my skin, I let out a silent breath of relief. Then, I heard him chuckle softly in my ear.
"...Little mud carp Hmph..."
Damn Liang Xiaog, to actually call me a mud loach! That insult really hit home, especially since Mu Wanchen used it to tease me.
"So, is Yinglong a divine beast from ancient times It disappeared from the upper realm a long time ago, and only its spirit remains, attaching itself to the body of the God King" I changed the subject, humbly inquiring.
Mu Wanchen hummed in response and whispered the origin story to me in a low voice.
In ancient times, the character "巫" represented divine messengers, wise men, and healers. The Ten Witches of Ling Mountain were the most renowned ten great witches, among whom Yinglong's spirit remained on Witch Xian's body, passed down through generations to the divine kings.
Donghuang Taiyi was the supreme god in ancient times. Later, only emperors were allowed to worship him, and commoners were not permitted to. Therefore, ordinary people did not know the title of this highest god from ancient times.
Legend has it that Yinglong was the concubine of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, so Mu Wanchen's master called Yinglong "Fairy Queen." It should be able to transform into "her," right
She should be a beautiful and unique fairy queen, and because of her long years, her master respects her very much.
"Have you ever seen Yinglong transform into a human"
"No." Mu Wanchen shook his head. "She was a god from ancient times, and every generation of the God Kings revered her deeply. They didn't try to pry into her secrets."
"Oh... then I won't ask." Sometimes curiosity can be a sin, I better not ask too much.
"Sleep now, and when dawn breaks, go see your little wife. Then I'll send you away."
I couldn't help but roll my eyes: "Seriously, just get out..."
Mu Wanchen's voice carried a hint of coldness: "If you don't go back, can you stay here How many days"
I...
"I... I... I promised my senior brother to go back as soon as possible..." I scratched my head a little annoyed.
"So, what's the difference between a few days early or late..." he closed his eyes and said faintly.
"Go home early. We'll talk again when you're older and ready to leave."
The conversation ended there.
I put the mask on my head, closed my eyes in a flurry of thoughts, and began to count spring rolls: one pink circle little lamb spring roll, two pink circle little lamb spring rolls...
As soon as I opened my eyes, I heard Zhu Jin's voice: "This dress is not good. Jiao Ai would definitely be too big in it."
What kind of clothes I turned over and sat up, seeing Zhu Jin and her cousin carrying in a rattan chest. Inside were several lacquered wooden boxes with gold thread edging.
The boxes were all opened, and the two of them pulled out several dresses to try on.
All the dresses here are in ancient style, with fine workmanship and exquisite embroidery, but…
"You made me wear this" I asked.
Zhu Jin glared at me: "Then what Are you going to go out in your underclothes"
"The problem is... I still have to go home with my classmates... Dressed like this, they'll make fun of me." I could almost picture Tang Yufei's laughter.
“…But you threw away your own clothes, didn't you Did you throw them away yourself”
I awkwardly nodded and said, "Alright, then please find the most ordinary color and style. I don't want to be surrounded by people all the way home..."
Zhu Jin found a pink underskirt and a white blouse embroidered with peach blossoms for me, and said with a smile, "This set is good, people face peach blossoms, you should wear it red."
I looked at the box of clothes and asked, "Did you all make these yourselves"
"How is that possible! This was made by the finest embroiderers in town, and it costs money! We just went to the new clothing stores, and you can choose which one you like. We'll send the rest back."
"You still have money! Show me what it looks like." I rubbed my hands together.
Zhu Jin took out a copper coin, I took it and looked, a standard round-holed coin.
This symbolizes the harmony of heaven and earth, and also represents the way to conduct oneself in the world. In the martial arts community, it means being courteous and smooth on the outside, but upright and honest on the inside.
There are several symbols on the coins that I don't understand, and there are cloud patterns as well. They probably circulate internally here.
"Can I have one, they're quite interesting," I asked.
"Here you go, as a reward for all the good things you've brought me, hehe." Zhu Jin smiled mischievously.
"My dear, I owe over two million! Are you seriously offering to exchange a whole dress for just one copper coin"
Although I said so, I happily accepted it.
After getting dressed, I habitually went to smooth the bracelet on my wrist. This kind of wide sleeve covered my hand back, only showing a glimpse of my fingers.
Imagine ancient women dressed so tightly, yet with their delicate fingers peeking out— that's alluring too!
"Where's Mu Wanchen" I asked excitedly.
"Oh my~ Your Highness, you've only just opened your eyes and you're already thinking about Lord Shaman" Zhu Jin winked at me. She got a slap on the head from her cousin who scolded her for being disrespectful.
I'm not overly concerned, but I'd like to see what effect it has on him with the veil cut off in two layers. Maybe we could see his eyes up close
It is said that eyes are difficult to lie with. People with bright eyes and those with dull and dim eyes have completely different personalities. As long as I can see his eyes, I don't need to keep guessing his emotions.
"My lord, the shaman is so busy. You just wait here. He said he'd be back as soon as possible. Hee hee, what a loving couple…"
Slap! She was slapped by her cousin again.
I peeked out at the corridor and abandoned my idea of going for a walk. I slipped back into Mu Wanchen's study. He said I could copy whatever I wanted, so I had to hurry and copy down some of the lost medical texts.
Pictures can be taken with a phone, but the small print is not clear when photographed and can only be transcribed by hand.
I held the brush and wrote each character carefully, thinking about how students from before used brushes to write essays. By the time a single character was finished, half of what I had been thinking about was gone.
"Are you here" Mu Wanchen lifted the bamboo curtain and walked in. As he approached, I immediately stared into his eyes—sure enough, up close was visible!
"...barely readable," he commented.
"I have learned!"
"Hurry, your little wife is waiting for you on the cliff."
"Huh It wasn't me who visited, but they came to me, right I nervously rubbed my hands together and asked, "Is your mother-in-law scary"
"Very fierce."
"No way... I looked at him with worry. "
He added, "She is very strict about etiquette. When you see her, you must show her the utmost respect and call her 'Shi Niang'."
And then
“…Then you’ll feel it for yourself.”spirit to possess her.""So you experts in this field are, Miss Qiao. Little Qiao is still the proxy head of the Shen family and a special advisor, how impressive! I'm just an old man messing with gad...
