"You've waited for two years. Are you ready to make a move?”Violet Maiden's voice was very calm, and it was impossible to tell if there was any hidden meaning in her words.
" No, it's not the time yet. A suitable opportunity is a shortcut to success. It's worth waiting for, but impatience will only lead to failure.”
Wei Zhuang drank his wine again, stood up and walked to his exclusive seat, the window. His low voice drifted along with the cold wind.
"The Han Kingdom is like a pool of stagnant water now. Both it and I are waiting for someone to stir it up.”
Purple Girl couldn't help shaking her head. According to the intelligence in her hand, Wei Zhuang should be waiting for Han Fei, the Ninth Young Master who was about to return to the country.
However, she really couldn't figure out what ability this Ninth Young Master had to make Wei Zhuang, the successor of Ghost Valley, wait for cooperation, even though Han Fei had a masterpiece like Five Shells.
This country was extremely stable, so stable that almost everyone was watching it meticulously walk towards destruction. He did not think that a young master alone could bring this country back to life.
However, Wei Zhuang said that he wanted to wait, so she could only wait with him. After all, she was helping him. She was a guest and could not turn the tables.
"You can decide what to do, but I hope…you don't drag him into this.”Violet Maiden asked Wei Zhuang.
"Hmm?" Wei Zhuang grunted in confusion and turned his back to the window.
By the time he turned around, he understood Violet Nu's meaning. He didn't want to involve Mo Yan in what he wanted to do.
"Night has already set his eyes on him, and he even sees him as one of us. He can't avoid it.”
Violet Maiden shook her head." It's different. Although Night has his eyes on him, with his skills, as long as he doesn't get involved in our matters, he can leave Xin Zheng with his wife and daughter at any time.”
Wei Zhuang was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice," Alright.”
However, in Wei Zhuang's opinion, Violet Girl was lying to herself.
It was normal to not want to drag a friend into danger. He did not want Violet to get involved in his plan, but it was futile.
In Wei Zhuang's opinion, Violet Girl was cautious and didn't like to take risks. Even so, she was still involved. As for Mo Yan, with his current relationship with Violet Girl, after knowing what Violet Girl had done, he only had two choices. One was to take Violet Girl away from here, but that was almost impossible, so in the end, he would still get involved for Violet Girl.
Violet Maiden knew what she was doing. However, humans were not machines. It was inevitable that they would do some useless things and even stupid things.
No matter what, she didn't want this friend of hers to be in danger because of her, even though she knew very well in her heart that the one who brought danger to Mo Yan was himself.
……
It was now winter. Even though the winter sun was dazzling, it could not bring real warmth to people. However, it was better than nothing. As the sun set, the temperature began to drop rapidly. The cold air invaded all the people in Xinzheng City.
Fortunately, Xinzheng's geographical location was not bad. It was located in the hinterland of the Central Plains. The temperature was much higher than the bitter cold of Yanzhao. Even if it was cold in winter, it was limited. At least the people living in Xinzheng had a way to withstand the cold winter.
As for the other places in Han Country, they could only depend on luck.
Mo Yan was accompanying Startling Salamander and Little Ah Yan in the room. There were several sources of light in the bright room. The oil lamp on the table, the lamp stand by the wall, and the Rainbow Sword by the bed.
Little Ah Yan's health wasn't good, and the weather was cold. He was worried that she would fall sick again, and felt that a charcoal brazier wasn't appropriate, so Mo Yan used the Rainbow Sword as a heater.
Injecting a stream of zhenqi into it could keep the room warm for half a day, and the Rainbow Sword, which had zhenqi stored in it, would emit a faint light.
In fact, Mo Yan was to blame for this situation. If he had asked the craftsmen to make a set of heating equipment in advance, he wouldn't have needed to use the Rainbow Sword to keep warm.
If he had thought of it earlier, he would have let the craftsman try it out based on his impression. At most, he would have tried it a few more times. It would be fine as long as it was rough and could heat up. He did not want it to be beautiful.
However, because he had forgotten, he didn't have time to prepare it in advance. Moreover, the cold weather in Xinzheng only lasted for a few days. It would probably be over by the time he finished preparing everything. Mo Yan simply gave up. It wouldn't be too late to wait until he moved to a more stable place where he would be staying for a long time.
Now, he would just use the Rainbow Sword to block it.
The frightened salamander had just coaxed the child to sleep. Mo Yan looked at the little one lying on the bed and felt that it was really too cute. As expected, children were like angels as long as they didn't need to be taken care of by themselves.
After watching for a while, Mo Yan suppressed the urge to pinch her tender face. He turned to look at Startling Salamander who had been sitting quietly at the side," It's almost the new year, what do you think we should prepare?”
"New Year?" The Startling Salamander's round eyes were filled with confusion as it shook its head." I don't know how to celebrate the New Year.”
"Don't you have any impression of it? You can't be on a mission every new year, right?”Since he was bored, Mo Yan decided to explore the memories of the Startling Salamander.
Startling Salamander raised his eyes and searched his mind for the special places of the new year. After thinking for a while, he said with uncertainty," There will be many sacrificial activities on the streets. Many people will hang peach trees, and people seem to be happier.”
"Anything else?" Mo Yan asked.
The Startling Salamander thought about it again and shook his head, indicating that it was really gone.
Mo Yan smacked his lips, feeling a little bored. However, it could also be that the Startling Salamander knew too little. He would ask Violet Nu when he had the chance.
"Alright, it doesn't matter if you don't know. I'll accompany you once this year, and then you'll know everything.”
New Year? It was a very unfamiliar word, especially when…someone was accompanying her.
Startling Salamander still didn't know what the meaning of the New Year was, but... she gently looked at the child beside her and Mo Yan beside the table... it was good to have them by her side.
It had been almost two years since they came to this world. In an era without cell phones and the internet, once the sky turned dark, no, even if the sky was still bright, there were no entertainment activities for people to pass time (except for entertainment venues like Purple Orchid Pavilion, which was not suitable for the masses), let alone after dark.
It was also because it was too boring, so Mo Yan insisted on sitting in the hall for at least four hours every day. When he had free time, he would even read those bamboo slips without any punctuations.(He had actually taught Mo Yan so many languages of the seven countries that he could now read bamboo slips by himself.) Because of this boredom, he couldn't help but want to find something to do.
Therefore, big days like the Spring Festival became a good time for Mo Yan to find entertainment to kill time.
