Chapter 236 Two Books on Enlightenment (8000)
Ye Zi stopped talking after the words fell, because it was really impossible to hide it.
Chu Ling touched her flat belly, and her eyebrows as thin as willow leaves wrinkled slightly. Finally, she sighed: "I also want to tell my husband, but you can see that my husband is busy with various things all day long. If I tell him now, won't it disrupt his plan?"
She was pregnant, not long ago.
Before, her strength was not up to the Transcendent Realm, so she couldn't get pregnant, but since she reached the Transcendent Realm, she has been pregnant with Xu Bai's child.
The reason why she was so tired was because she was pregnant. I don't know why, this child was in her belly, and it would inexplicably absorb the power in her body, but fortunately it was not much.
Now, she can withstand this speed of absorption in the Transcendent Realm.
Originally, this was a great joy, but Chu Ling didn't plan to tell Xu Bai.
She remembered that Xu Bai was in the palace treasury all day during this period, and only had a little time to accompany them, and she could see that Xu Bai was very busy.
A smart woman will not bring trouble to her man. She is even very discerning and knows when to say and when to do.
Chu Ling is a smart woman. She knows that if she tells Xu Bai about these things, Xu Bai will definitely be very happy.
But it also disrupted the plan invisibly. Xu Bai may even accompany her all day, which is not good for Xu Bai.
It’s not that she doesn’t like Xu Bai’s company. On the contrary, she really wants Xu Bai to accompany her all day, but sometimes, this kind of thing also depends on the situation.
She has heard some trivial things before, mostly from the families of some officials in the palace, who pour out their grievances when chatting with her.
Those wives of officials in high positions, as long as they talk about their men, all complain that their men have no time to accompany them and are busy with various things all day.
In fact, in Chu Ling’s view, this is purely looking for trouble.
You want your man to accompany you, and you also want your man to go out to work. Can you tear your man into pieces?
She said that men don't understand love, and that men don't understand so-called romance, but they also have to live.
Chu Ling understood very well, so he decided not to tell Xu Bai for the time being, or to tell Xu Bai when Xu Bai was free.
Ye Zi couldn't help looking at Chu Ling's flat belly, with envy on his face, and reached out to touch Chu Ling's belly.
"I also want to give birth to a child for my husband."
Just as Eunuch Wei said, in Xu Bai's situation, the only one who can give him children now is Chu Ling.
She and Xu Bai had not taken any measures before, but they just couldn't get pregnant.
So, Ye Zi felt a little regretful and envious.
"Okay..." Chu Ling was touched on the belly by Ye Zi, and slapped Ye Zi's hand away, saying, "It's time to get busy. My husband is very busy every day, and we can't hold him back."
Ye Zi stuck out his tongue and helped Chu Ling up.
Chu Ling's fair face showed a helpless expression: "I just got pregnant, there is no need to be so careful."
Ye Zi smiled and said: "Sister, the little guy in your arms now is either rich or noble. He will be the treasure in your husband's hands in the future. You must be careful."
Chu Ling shook her head slightly and gently hit Ye Zi's shoulder.
The two women walked away while playing.
...
Royal City.
On the bustling street, Xu Bai was walking towards the location of the Miao Sect. His face was excited and excited at this moment.
Pregnant!
Pregnant!
Pregnant!!!
Important things should be said three times!
Who is he?
The soul covered the entire royal city. Although he could only feel the vague outline, the sound of the two women's communication did not escape his ears.
As long as he wanted to listen to a certain place and focused his consciousness, he could hear it clearly.
Just before he left, he felt that something was wrong with Chu Ling, because no matter how tired he was, a master of the Transcendent Realm would recover after a night's rest.
Although the bed was shaking a little last night, he was not so tired after a night, so he paid special attention.
Originally, it was just subconscious, but I really didn't expect to hear such news.
At that time, he wanted to rush back, but he heard the conversation between the two women behind him, and Xu Bai stopped.
For any man, being a father for the first time is a very happy thing.
Xu Bai was also happy, but he thought about it and realized that Chu Ling was right. His plan could not be disrupted now.
Don't look at the peace now. His strength is invincible in the Transcendent Realm, and he even has three skills to enter the Saint.
But the peace on the surface is undercurrent.
Not only the situation of the two strange cities, but more importantly, the recent frequent occurrence of relics, which tells people in the industry all the time that this world is more dangerous than imagined.
The sense of urgency is like waves after waves.
In short, the pursuit of strength is endless, the stronger the better.
Xu Bai temporarily put aside his plan to go back and continued to walk towards the location of the Miao Sect.
The location assigned to the Miao Sect was not in the royal city, but pointed from the royal city to the direction of the Great Chu State.
Therefore, Xu Bai could walk here with confidence.
After all, the closer he walked to this side, the closer he was to the palace of the Great Chu State, and the two guys from the barbarians did not dare to come over.
He was very fast, and he reached his destination after walking for about half an incense stick of time.
——Longzhou.
On the side of the barbarian fiefdom, the division mechanism used by the Great Chu State was also adopted, and it was also divided into four parts: Jingzhou Prefecture and Dao.
The Miao Sect was assigned to Longzhou.
Xu Bai fell from mid-air and slowly walked into the city gate.
When the soldiers guarding the city saw Xu Bai, they all showed shocked expressions, as if they had seen dazzled, rubbing their eyes hard, and couldn't believe it.
If there were still people who didn't know Xu Bai, then as long as they were in the industry, or working in the Great Chu State, they all had a portrait of Xu Bai in their hands and knew what Xu Bai looked like.
As for why there is a portrait of him, it is actually very simple.
The Great Chu State is very large, but the exchanges and collisions between people cannot be reduced just because the place is large.
If you run into him one day, and you don't know what Xu Bai looks like, and you do something to offend Xu Bai, it will not only be a loss, but also bring huge consequences.
So these are necessary.
Xu Bai nodded to the soldiers, raised his hand slightly to indicate not to disturb the people, and then walked in.
The soldiers saw Xu Bai's action and knew that Xu Bai didn't want to cause a sensation.
So they all didn't say anything, just pretending not to see it.
After entering Longzhou, Xu Bai was a little emotional.
On both sides of the streets of Longzhou, there are stalls and vendors who are trying hard to shout, and various buildings look brand new.
After all, it was just repaired, so the buildings here are much newer. In just a short time, so much has been restored, almost as good as before.
He couldn't help but sigh that the speed of construction was unimaginable.
However, he only sighed for a short while and did not stay any longer, but walked towards one of the directions.
After passing through alleys, the noise in Xu Bai's ears gradually disappeared, and a slightly luxurious mansion appeared in front of him not far away.
The mansion was very large and magnificent, and its luxury was already evident just from the surface.
Not all the people from the Miao sect came here. Just like the academy, they also sent many young geniuses here, which was considered enough attention, and it can be said that they cared about the things here very much.
For any force, the young generation is cultivated and cultivated by every force, so being able to send all the young geniuses here means that the Miao sect really wants to develop here.
At the door of the mansion, there were two Miao sect members guarding, and they were even bored to the point of yawning.
Not far away, there was a sound of footsteps.
The Miao sect members guarding the door heard the footsteps, and the two looked at each other and looked in the direction of the sound.
Originally, they thought someone was passing by, or someone was looking for them.
In fact, they guessed right.
Someone was indeed looking for them, but when they saw who was coming, they were stunned and their shoulders began to tremble.
An emotion called fear grew in their hearts.
They couldn't help but take a step back, looking at the figure that was gradually enlarging not far away, and felt panic in their hearts.
In the past, they had also experienced many battles and would not be confused by some things, but in their current situation, anyone would have the same expression as them.
The reason was that the person walking in front of them was tall. Although he didn't have any weapons hanging around his waist, even if he had his hands behind his back, he could make people feel a sense of pressure coming towards him.
This sense of pressure came from the heart and could not be controlled at all.
They wanted to run, but in the current situation, it seemed that there was no need to run at all. If the famous Prince Xu in front of them wanted to kill them, he could just blow a breath, and no matter how hard they ran, they couldn't run away.
Thinking of this, one of the guards stood up, bowed to Xu Bai, and said respectfully: "I meet Prince Xu. I wonder what Prince Xu is here for?"
Rules still have to be followed, and various procedures cannot be simplified.
Xu Bai glanced at the guard and smiled: "Let me know. I came to see you. I really have something important to do. I want to see your person in charge here."
"Yes, Prince Xu, please wait a moment." The guard said no more, bowed and said, then turned and entered the mansion.
After about half an incense stick of time, the guard who entered hurriedly walked in, opened the door, raised his hand and bowed, saying: "Please!"
Xu Bai nodded, followed the guard, and the guard led the way to the room with very stylish decoration.
"Prince Xu, please wait here for a while. The person in charge will come to see you soon." The guard said respectfully.
Xu Bai could see beads of sweat on the guard's forehead, and he knew where the sweat came from.
This guy seemed to be very afraid of him. Staying by his side for another minute would probably be a huge torture.
"When did I become so scary?" Xu Bai touched his chin and said to himself, "I remember that I am a very easy-going and elegant person."
The guard next to him kept his head down after seeing Xu Bai didn't speak, but his face was covered with sweat and he kept shaking.
"Okay, you can leave first." Xu Bai waved his hand in boredom.
The guard ran away quickly as if he had been pardoned, without any hesitation, as if there was a flood and a beast following him.
Xu Bai didn't care about him either. He sat in his seat and poured himself a cup of tea. Just after taking two sips, the door was pushed open.
Then, he saw Miao Xiao, dressed in black, jumping in.
"Hello, Lord Xu." Miao Xiao quickly stopped and bowed respectfully, but her eyes were rolling around, showing her cunning intention.
Xu Bai looked behind Miao Xiao and found that there was no one behind him. He thought: "So that's it, you are in charge of things here now?"
Miao Xiao nodded vigorously, and seeing that there was no one around, then made a particularly wretched look and rubbed her hands.
It's hard to imagine that Miao Xiao, although she is not beautiful, has a cute and elf-like meaning.
And such a lovely woman can actually make such a wretched action, which is simply outrageous.
"What do you want to do?" Xu Bai said with a twitch in his mouth.
To be honest, he had seen this expression and this look in Yingyue before, but Miao Xiao was different from Yingyue. She was not as bold as Yingyue. After all, Xu Bai was in a different position now, so he had to restrain himself as much as possible.
Yingyue was different. After seeing Xu Bai, she went straight to it.
Miao Xiao stared at Xu Bai pitifully, muttering: "When I came here, grandma told me that I have to follow the rules when I see you. Can I not follow these rules?"
Xu Bai waved his hand with a headache: "You can not, but you have to be like a normal person. You know what I mean by normal."
"Okay!" Miao Xiao immediately became smiling, and jumped to sit next to Xu Bai, put her chin on the palm of her hand, and stared at Xu Bai.
"Prince Xu, what is the matter this time?"
Although she is the type of fanatic fan, she also knows that it is time to talk about business now, so she did not change the topic.
Xu Bai nodded and put down the teacup in his hand: "It is indeed a business. I came here to find something this time. The thing is this..."
In the quiet room, he told the whole story, emphasizing that he wanted to become a saint and failed. Of course, although this statement was a bit abrupt, he did not intend to beat around the bush.
If you want to give it, then give it. If you don't want to give it, then see if there is room for a deal.
Miao Xiao was slightly stunned, but soon recovered: "Wait for me, I'll be there soon."
With that, she hopped away, as if she was very happy.
Xu Bai: "?"
What's going on? Why do I always feel a little jumpy?
Whether she agreed or not, she didn't give a straight answer.
But Miao Xiao asked him to wait, and he didn't leave for the time being, and continued to sit in his seat and wait.
After about an incense stick of time, Miao Xiao came in from outside, holding a book in his hand and handed it to Xu Bai.
"Hey, this is the book you want, here you go."
Xu Bai: "?"
He felt that he had a lot of question marks today, but he was indeed very confused.
This thing is very precious, but Miao Xiao gave it to him simply, a little too simply.
"You gave it to me so readily?"
He originally thought that this trip would be very troublesome, and even made preparations for a deal, but he didn't expect that he would be so willing to give him the experience of failing to become a saint.
Moreover, this thing is so important that Miao Xiao actually kept it. It is obvious that Miao Xiao brought it with him.
Hearing this, Miao Xiao put his index finger on his lower lip and looked up at the ceiling: "Grandma said that this thing was originally for you, but we can't give it to you on our own initiative. We must ask you to come and ask for it before we can give it to you, and we must act very embarrassed before giving it to you..."
Xu Bai's head was full of black lines.
How could he not understand the meaning of this sentence? In fact, this thing is also very easy to understand.
To give a very simple analogy, when you want to give something to a very important person, if you give it directly, it will seem that this thing is very unimportant.
But if when this person asks you for it, you act embarrassed again, but finally give it away, the value of this thing will increase, and the favor given will also increase.
From this point of view, Xu Bai estimated that the senior leaders of the Miao Sect had long wanted to give the thing to him, but they had been holding it, probably waiting for this time.
Unexpectedly, Miao Xiao was so direct that he even said what he said just now.
"Then I won't refuse it." Xu Bai said with a smile.
He put away the failed experience of becoming a saint. Since the other party was willing to give it to him, it was okay for him to put it away.
After putting away the failed experience of becoming a saint, the room fell into silence, and there was an awkward feeling.
Miao Xiao's eyes rolled around, looking left and right, as if thinking about something.
Xu Bai felt that he had to break the silence at this time, so he turned thousands of words into two words: "Is there something?"
Miao Xiao nodded happily after hearing what Xu Bai said: "Yes!"
Xu Bai rubbed his forehead helplessly: "If you have something, just tell me earlier. I just took a copy of your experience. If there is anything I can help with, I will not refuse."
"I'm sorry." Miao Xiao laughed: "Wait for me a little longer."
With that, she didn't wait for Xu Bai to speak, and ran out in a hurry. Xu Bai looked at Miao Xiao's back, feeling a bit amused.
The Miao sect is really bold, leaving all the young people here to Miao Xiao alone.
Judging from the situation, it is estimated that there is really something that needs to be done by himself.
However, he just received a book of failed sainthood experience from the other party. This thing is regarded as a treasure in every force, so if there is really something, he will also help, just as a deal.
Thinking of this, there was a hurried sound of footsteps outside, and Miao Xiao walked in quickly.
When Miao Xiao approached, Xu Bai saw that she was holding a square wooden box in her hand.
This wooden box doesn’t look big, but it is very beautifully carved. Just from this box, you can see that the things inside are definitely not simple.
What can be put in such a beautiful wooden box must not be ordinary. Thinking of this, Miao Xiao stuffed the wooden box into Xu Bai’s hand.
Xu Bai gently weighed the wooden box in his hand and asked in confusion: "What does this mean?"
He didn’t open it, but waited for Miao Xiao’s reply.
Miao Xiao chuckled twice, scratched his head, and looked silly: "We had two books on the path to becoming a saint, but after the Gu God Cult split off, they took one away."
"You've also experienced what happened that day. It seemed that His Majesty was furious, so he took heavy measures, wasted a lot of manpower and resources, and killed all the remnants, and this thing returned to our hands."
Xu Bai remembered.
But he didn't know what happened later. It turned out that the Gu God Cult had been destroyed by the Emperor of Chu?
From this point of view, it seems that this book on the path to becoming a saint will also be given to him.
Xu Bai looked up and down at Miao Xiao, and suddenly said: "I thought you were a fool at first, but I didn't expect you to be quite smart."
Miao Xiao's expression was stunned, but soon returned to normal. He didn't say anything, but his expression was a little stiff.
Xu Bai pointed at the wooden box and said slowly: "Your conditions are definitely not simple. If you put forward the conditions first, I may not agree, but if you take out the things first and let me see the benefits first, it will increase the possibility of my agreement."
At this point, Xu Bai has understood Miao Xiao's thoughts. This little girl looks silly, but she is really delicate in her heart.
Miao Xiao said expectantly: "Then, can you accept it?"
The smile on Xu Bai's face slowly faded, and his tone became flat: "Say it."
Miao Xiao did not notice Xu Bai's expression, and said to himself: "After Prince Xu becomes a saint, can you... go to the Miao Sect?"
"What do you want to do in the Miao Sect?" Xu Bai frowned.
Miao Xiao explained: "Recently, our Miao sect has encountered a big problem. The Golden Silk Gu is constantly weakening for some reason. If it continues like this, it may really become extinct."
"We heard that Prince Xu has a strong body recovery ability, so we want to borrow your blood to save the Golden Silk Gu after he reaches the Sainthood."
At this point, Miao Xiao closed her mouth.
She finally realized that Xu Bai's expression seemed a little strange, and he looked very calm.
This feeling made her feel strange.
Xu Bai said indifferently: "Aren't you afraid that I can't become a Saint at all?"
"If there is no way to become a Saint, your plan can't be implemented, and I have used this book in vain."
Miao Xiao put away the idea just now and shook his head and said: "Don't be afraid. If there is really no way to become a Saint, it proves that the Golden Silk Gu is destined to die."
Xu Bai heard this and said nothing more.
Since the words have come to this point, there is no point in talking any more.
"Okay, I promise. After I become a Saint, I will go over to help you solve it as soon as possible." Xu Bai said.
If it was just to use blood to save the golden silk Gu, it would be nothing.
While talking, Xu Bai used the method of calculation to secretly calculate and found that this matter was auspicious and there should be no problem.
Miao Xiao hummed and wanted to say something.
But this time, Xu Bai did not give him a chance to say more, and stood up with the wooden box.
"Since the matter has been discussed, I will leave first. The sooner I enter the sainthood, the sooner I can help you."
There is nothing wrong with what he said. It is true. If he becomes a saint earlier, he can help the Miao sect solve the problem earlier.
Miao Xiao fell into silence and nodded.
She wanted to talk about other things, but now it seems that Xu Bai is not in a good mood.
Xu Bai didn't say anything until he was about to leave.
"In fact, we have experienced life and death in that battle. There is no need to use these little tricks."
"If it is Wuhua and Liuxu, they will tell me directly, and I will try my best to help them."
"But since you want to treat it as a business now, then it is a business."
After saying that, Xu Bai didn't stay any longer and walked towards the royal city.
Miao Xiao looked at Xu Bai's back and suddenly remembered something, her face turned pale.
She seemed to have done something wrong. Her cleverness was used in the wrong place.
As Xu Bai said, she took out the things first and then talked to Xu Bai about the transaction. This is calculating others.
If they are not familiar with each other, there may be no problem in doing this.
But the problem is that they are familiar with each other, and they almost died there when they were fighting against the Gu God Cult.
The feeling of fighting together and experiencing life and death together is different, but I actually used a little trick to calculate Xu Bai, and no one would be happy.
Just imagine, when your friend uses a little trick to calculate you, will you be happy?
Miao Xiao gritted her teeth and finally did not catch up.
According to Xu Bai's speed, she could not catch up, and could only apologize next time she went to the Miao Cult.
Thinking of this, she sighed and returned to the room.
…
Along the way, Xu Bai did not stop, but rushed back to the palace at the fastest speed.
However, this time, he did not return to the royal treasury, but rushed to the place where Chu Ling and Ye Zi rested.
It didn't take long to go back and forth. According to the current time, it should be when Chu Ling was reviewing memorials in the study.
Ye Zi should be there too, and they will rest there by the way.
"Pah!"
After arriving at the study, Xu Bai pushed the door open. In the astonished eyes of the two women, he walked quickly to Chu Ling and picked her up.
"Let me see."
Xu Bai put his ear close to Chu Ling's belly and listened carefully, but unfortunately, he heard nothing.
This is normal. How could there be any special movement when she was just pregnant?
Just as he thought about it, he suddenly felt a different life force coming from Chu Ling's belly.
"It's happening!" Xu Bai was overjoyed.
The words were so clear that the two women knew that Xu Bai understood what happened.
Chu Ling said in a panic: "Husband, I didn't mean to lie to you. The most important thing is..."
"No need to say more, I know everything." Xu Bai smiled and said: "This is a good thing. There is no need to hide it from me in the future."
Chu Ling opened her mouth and finally nodded.
She looked at Xu Bai putting his ear on her belly and couldn't help but touch Xu Bai's hair.
Beside him, Ye Zi covered her lips and smiled gently.
Xu Bai suddenly raised his head: "By the way, you said that your fatigue is due to pregnancy. What's the situation?"
He remembered what he heard when he left today, especially thinking that Chu Ling was often tired, and was a little worried.
Chu Ling smiled and said: "It's okay, husband, I asked a professional doctor to see it. He said that if a doctor is more tired when pregnant, it proves that the fetus is stronger."
"I still feel tired when I reach the Transcendent Realm, which proves that the child is definitely extraordinary."
"So that's it..." Xu Bai understood and rubbed his hands excitedly: "Then you should do less things now. Some things can be left to those ministers to do."
Chu Ling nodded gently, indicating that she understood.
Ye Zi walked over with lotus steps: "I will help my sister share the burden, don't worry, husband."
Chu Ling said: "Husband, don't delay your business because of my business. If so, I will feel very guilty."
Xu Bai shook his head and said: "It won't be delayed. Anyway, my soul has covered the entire royal city and can see your recent situation. There is no danger. Besides, there are Liu Qingfeng and Yumian Guanzhu. As long as they are not the two old guys from the barbarian tribe, every extraordinary master will die."
Hearing Xu Bai's affirmation and seriousness, Chu Ling also saw Xu Bai's expression for the first time and couldn't help laughing.
"Husband, you are talking nonsense again. The extraordinary masters also want to curry favor with us. Who dares to go against us?"
Not mentioning Xu Bai's background, Xu Bai's current strength can really beat the extraordinary.
The three chatted for a long time, and finally Chu Ling drove Xu Bai out on the grounds that she didn't want to delay Xu Bai.
Xu Bai was also helpless, but she couldn't stay inside. Pregnant women need rest, so she left.
Xu Bai did not stop and walked directly to the palace treasury. Soon he came to the top floor. He saw the female master and Liu Qingfeng, still reading books desperately.
"You are really working hard. I thought you geniuses were much more relaxed than ordinary people."
This sentence was a joke, Xu Bai just said it in a joking tone.
The female master glanced at Xu Bai: "I guess I will leave in another month?"
Xu Bai was slightly stunned: "Have you found a way to become a saint?"
The female master nodded: "Recently, I have been using my abilities to simulate constantly. I am about to reach a limit, so I need to find a very quiet place."
"Oh..." Xu Bai said: "It's quiet and safe here."
The female master's mouth twitched slightly. She didn't say anything, but her expression was already very obvious.
"Okay, okay." Xu Bai waved his hand: "It doesn't matter. By the way, Brother Qingfeng, how are you progressing?"
Liu Qingfeng smiled bitterly and said: "I'm still at the eighth level of transcendence. I guess there's no chance for me to succeed. But I'm lucky to be able to recover my soul. I won't pursue too much."
Xu Bai patted Liu Qingfeng on the shoulder: "Don't worry about these. Just proceed step by step and make steady progress."
This is just a consolation, and he can only do it as a consolation.
Because he can't get it right away, just help Liu Qingfeng improve his strength.
After saying that, he found a place and continued to work hard.
This time, he had a goal. He had to finish reading these two books on the experience of failed sainthood before he could come out.
The golden progress bar was moving slowly, and Xu Bai was staring at it, concentrating...
A new chapter is about to come out. Regarding the sainthood of the two barbarians, according to conventional logic, they will not come out, but I will give them a special way to die, and the way of death must be related to Xu Bai.
