Chapter 230 Drawing
The two sat on the stone bench and put the things on the stone table. Tie Jinjue continued to teach Tie Hongyan to draw the kitten that he had not finished last time.
While drawing, Tie Hongyan whispered to Tie Jinjue about the blood stains she saw on Dong Su's body the day before: "He said the blood got on his clothes when he slaughtered livestock, but I always feel that it's not the case. Uncle, do you know what happened? Did he kill someone?"
Tie Jinjue whispered in Tie Hongyan's ear: "Yes. The body found today was the one he killed yesterday."
The two of them whispered something more while they were drawing.
After drawing the kitten, Tie Jinjue stood up and said, "I have to go do something. We should go."
Tie Hongyan also stood up and said, "Uncle, please come and play with me more often when you have time and teach me how to draw!"
"Of course! Didn't we agree on that last time? Uncle will come to play with you as soon as he has time." Tie Jinjue said with a smile.
"Then let's make a deal first. What will you teach me to draw next time?"
"What do you want to draw?"
"Draw a little tree! How about just drawing a little tree?"
"Okay, we have a deal!"
"Well, uncle is a man of his words." Tie Hongyan said happily.
Tie Jinjue smiled, touched Tie Hongyan's head and said, "Go back!" After that, he sent Tie Hongyan back to Ao Qian Palace and went to deal with other things.
Tie Hongyan and Wu Xunsheng practiced martial arts diligently during the day, and always went to the fields around the South Gate to play in the evening. Dong Su monitored Tie Hongyan and Wu Xunsheng for a total of ten days, and found that there was nothing wrong with the two children. After that, he stopped monitoring them as Tie Wandao said.
On the evening of the first day that Dong Su stopped monitoring them, Tie Hongyan and Wu Xunsheng went to the field to play again. Not long after they arrived there, a dazzling light appeared in front of them. They merged into the light, and their consciousness entered another state. The two of them lowered their heads and picked up the stones that appeared on the ground in front of them, and put the piece they picked up together with the piece picked up by the other. When the two stones were combined into one, the stone and the light disappeared at the same time. This was the second time they put together the Tianling Dingyuan Stone. No one else saw the whole process, and there was no trace of this in their memories. The Tianling Dingyuan Stone to be put together will only appear when no one else is around to see it. This day was only the first day that Dong Su stopped monitoring them, and the stone to be put together had already appeared. The two children continued to play in the field for a while, and Dong Su came. He came to take them back to Ao Qian Hall for food.
After that, Tie Hongyan and Wu Xunsheng pieced together the Tianling Dingyuan Stone several times when they were alone together.
Chapter 49
Half a month later, one evening, the sun was setting and the sky was full of sunset glow. Tie Hongyan and Wu Xunsheng played in the wild for a long time. When they were tired, they sat on the ground and rested while looking at the sunset glow in the sky.
"The sunset is so red today!" said Tie Hongyan.
"Yes!" Wu Xunsheng said, "Do you like particularly red sunsets?"
"I don't know either." Tie Hongyan said after thinking for a while.
"Don't you think it looks good?" Wu Xunsheng asked.
"It depends on how red it is. Sometimes I think a particularly red sunset is beautiful, and sometimes I don't."
"I really like the particularly red sunset. No matter how red it is, it looks good in my opinion," said Wu Xunsheng.
"Really? Then if I tell you one, would you think it looks good?"
