This night, Ji Ruqian Long wasn't the only one who was suffering, Xiang Ziyao was as well. Xiang Ziyao wasn't in her room tonight. She went to Xiang Jun and Xiang Furen's place. Ever since she discovered the Sleeping Seal on Tianming's neck, her heart could no longer remain calm. Although she looked calm on the surface, her worry was no less than Shaoyu's, and even more intense. She locked herself in the secret room and flipped through the bamboo slips (there was no paper during the Qin Dynasty, so most of the books were carved on bamboo slips), looking for a way to break the Sleeping Seal. The contents of all the bamboo slips in the secret room were in her mind, but she still flipped through all the bamboo slips. She was afraid that she had missed out on some important information, but she still found nothing. Then, he ran to Xiang Jun's library and continued to search.
When Xiang Furen saw her return, her face was filled with pleasant surprise, but Xiang Ziyao didn't even greet her and directly entered the library. She didn't answer any of her questions and continued to flip through the bamboo slips.
Xiang Ziyao was so busy that Madame Xiang felt sorry for her daughter and made an exception to let her eat meat. She placed a plate of fresh and tender braised chicken drumstick in front of Xiang Ziyao, but she didn't even look at it and continued to work on her own.
" Ziyao, what are you looking for?" Mrs. Xiang asked with concern." Tell us. With your father's and my abilities, we might be able to help you!"”
Xiang Ziyao said,"No need mother, I can do it myself!"”As she spoke, she did not even raise her head and continued to flip through the pages.
Madam Xiang was a little unhappy and raised her voice,"Why? Why did you suddenly become so stubborn?”
Xiang Ziyao's heart was already filled with jealousy and frustration. At this moment, she became even more impatient and said,"Mother, don't worry about me. When I grow up, I'll have my own secrets. I can't tell you, so it's best if you don't ask.”
Madame Xiang was a little stunned. She really hadn't expected this. Her voice immediately became gentle as she said,"Then, at least eat the drumstick. I cooked it myself. It's rare for you to come back.”
"I know, put it down first!" Xiang Ziyao said. I don't have an appetite now. I'll eat later. You can go out first!”
Madam Xiang was shocked. She felt as if she had seen someone being struck by lightning. This was the first time she had seen Xiang Ziyao say that she had no appetite in front of meat. It was such a surprise, but it also showed that the secret in Xiang Ziyao's heart was even more explosive.
Madame Xiang did not say anything else. She put down the drumstick, sighed, and walked out.
When Mrs. Xiang returned to her room, Xiangjun was not asleep either!
"How is Ziyao?" Xiangjun asked.”
"She didn't even look at the drumstick I made!"”
Xiang Jun was also stunned.”
Madam Xiang's face was full of worry." This child has changed too much. She used to be so cute and obedient. Why is she like this now? She's grown up, but she's only fourteen! I'm really worried!"
"Let nature take its course!" Perhaps she has really grown up and we can't arrange her fate. She can only walk her own path,"
"What's wrong with you? How can you let her go?" Mrs. Xiang asked, puzzled. Did you notice something?"
Xiang Jun said," You know my ability. In the world, only Wei Zuo can compare to me in divination. However, my divination power is completely blank when used on Zi Yao. I can't divine anything." Ever since she was young, Ziyao had been cute and obedient. As parents, they felt that it was only right for their children to be obedient. However, for children, being naughty and playful was their nature. Didn't he realize that she was too obedient? She never made us angry and was even more filial to us. However, when she was talking to others, she looked so innocent, as if she didn't know anything. She was as pure as the water in Luo Lake.”
Madame Xiang calmed down."What are you trying to say?" She was one of the five great masters of the Yin-Yang School and had a calm mind. However, as a mother, she would always be confused when it came to her child's matters. This was a common problem for mothers!
"Perhaps our Ziyao is different from the other children. We shouldn't have treated her like a child."”
Mrs. Xiang did not speak again. Xiang Jun's words made her enter a state of thinking again!
In the library, Xiang Ziyao had already finished reading all the bamboo slips. Her heart had sunk to the bottom of the valley. After so long, she still hadn't found any clues. Her mind was filled with frustration and uneasiness!
At this moment, the drumstick on the table seemed particularly lonely. Usually, it was so popular, but this time, it could not even get a proper look. This could be considered as being despised!
Xiang Ziyao pushed open the window and looked at the rain outside. Her voice was very rhythmic, but it still couldn't hide the frustration in her heart. She wanted to calm herself down, but how could she?
In the pitch-black night sky, a bolt of lightning flashed past. Then, a thunderous rumble sounded. However, Xiang Ziyao suddenly became alert because after the thunder, there was a low growl!
What was that sound?
On the other side, this night seemed to be a sleepless night for Shaoyu. Xiang Ziyao's words lingered in his mind: "Yes, he will die. If he didn't have such a deep internal energy, he might be able to live for another eight to ten years with Ge Nia by his side. But now, he could only last half a year at most.”
Looking at Tianming who was sleeping beside him, Tianming's sleeping posture was still so ugly and distorted. A pinch of snot was still on his lips, but Shaoyu could not smile. Instead, there was an indescribable bitterness in his heart. They had spent so much time together, and they had gone through so many life-and-death situations together. Tianming was not only his good friend, but he was also a brother that he could use his life to befriend. However, this cute brother only had half a year left to live. And during this period, Shaoyu actually couldn't think of what he could do for Tianming. Could it be that he could only watch helplessly as Tianming died?
Shaoyu turned his head back. He didn't dare to look at Tianming like this anymore. His heart was really too uncomfortable. Then, he sat up and covered his face with his hands. He needed to sort out his emotions."Tianming is still alive and well. I definitely can't give up first! We will definitely be able to save Tianming. We will definitely be able to…"
Shao Yu patted his face to wake himself up from the pain. However, by accident, with the help of the lightning, he realized that Shi Lan was not asleep on the bed either! Shi Lan was curled up in the corner, her body trembling as if she had been overly frightened!
