Chapter 488: 488. Second brother comes out

Translator: 549690339

Before the three children could huddle together, Gu Ling and Su Liang quickly rushed over, grabbing Zhengzheng and Ji Xiaoshu into their arms.

Gu Xiaonuan’s little face was puzzled, waving her small hand in confusion, wondering where her toy blocks had gone.

“Master, my little sister can control that magic treasure!” Zhengzheng thought Gu Ling hadn’t seen it.

Ji Xiaoshu was very excited, “Master’s wife, just now my little sister made a toy block disappear out of thin air! That magical treasure doesn’t even need blood to recognize her as its master! I knew my sister could do it! I want her to take me inside the magical treasure to play!”

Su Liang and Gu Ling exchanged a glance. They had both seen it, and the reason they were holding the two children back from interacting with Gu Xiaonuan was to prevent them from disappearing into thin air.

Seeing Gu Xiaonuan make the toy block disappear, Gu Ling and Su Liang were actually quite excited as well, but they quickly calmed down, realizing there was a new problem: Gu Xiaonuan was too young to understand what was happening and didn’t know how to use the space. What just happened was purely accidental.

Of course, the fact that Gu Xiaonuan was able to use the magical treasure was a great thing, a major turning point for the problems they were facing at the moment.

However, Gu Ling and Su Liang needed to guide Gu Xiaonuan first and have her release the people trapped in the space before they could allow more people to enter.

“Great God, if I hold her, will she make me disappear too?” Su Liang asked Gu Ling.

Gu Ling nodded, “It’s possible.”

“Little sister still doesn’t know what’s going on. Master and Master’s wife, please tell her how to let Auntie Yan out!” Ji Xiaoshu said happily.

Su Liang shook her head, “How could we possibly know that?”

“So we can only let my little sister discover it for herself?” Zhengzheng frowned, “But my little sister is too young to understand this.”

“I’ve got it!” Ji Xiaoshu’s eyes lit up. “Since my little sister doesn’t know where Aunt Yan is, let her take me in, and then she’ll look for me. When she finds me, she’ll let me out!”

Zhengzheng shook his head, “But what if she can’t find you, or it takes a long time to find you? It’s not appropriate.”

“Anyway, Auntie Yan is inside, and Master and Master’s wife said there’s food there, so I’m not scared!” Ji Xiaoshu expressed his faith in Gu Xiaonuan.

Gu Ling rubbed Ji Xiaoshu’s head, “There are no vegetables inside, only coarse grain porridge.”

“Ah? Then I’ll bring some vegetables and meat with me to eat with Aunt Yan! Aunt Yan has learned how to cook before!” Ji Xiaoshu said, thinking it was a simple solution.

Su Liang received Gu Ling’s eye signal and took the two young disciples to sit at the table.

Gu Ling went over by himself, sat next to Gu Xiaonuan, and held her in his arms.

By now, Gu Xiaonuan had found a new game: making toy blocks disappear. When she discovered her toy block had gone missing, she played around with the process of making it disappear, finding it quite magical. She grabbed the toy blocks, touched the “water droplet”, and when the toy blocks disappeared, she shook her small hand, showed Gu Ling, and laughed happily, saying in a clear voice, “Magic!”

Zhengzheng held his forehead, “My little sister thinks she’s playing magic tricks.”

Ji Xiaoshu’s eyes widened, “I think Master could disappear at any moment.”

Gu Ling had learned a few magic tricks based on Su Liang’s description, occasionally amused the children with them, and even taught the two little disciples how to play. The most common trick involved making objects in their hands disappear.

Gu Xiaonuan had seen her two brothers play many times, but she hadn’t remembered the name of the trick – just the word “magic.” At this moment, she thought she could do magic tricks too.

Gu Ling didn’t stop her, and Gu Xiaonuan continued to play with the toy blocks, happily making them disappear one by one.

Every time she succeeded, Gu Ling would kiss Gu Xiaonuan’s cheek to praise and encourage her, which made her play even more enthusiastically.

Watching the items disappear in Gu Xiaonuan’s hand, Su Liang suddenly had an idea, and took out her writing materials.

“What does Master’s wife want to write?” Zhengzheng skillfully ground ink for Su Liang.

Ji Xiaoshu glanced at them and continued to stare at Gu Ling and Gu Xiaonuan, wanting to see if Gu Ling would disappear.

Seeing Su Liang start writing, Zhengzheng suddenly understood, “I get it. Master’s wife is writing a letter to Aunt Yan, so my sister can take it in, and Aunt Yan can see it. This way, she’ll be reassured that we’ll be able to rescue her soon.”

Ji Xiaoshu said in response, “Master’s wife can write it in the letter and ask Aunt Yan to call out to the little sister in the space, maybe she can hear it. I think for now the little sister can only take things in, but we haven’t seen where those things have gone.”

“Right!” Zhengzheng nodded.

Su Liang quickly wrote a letter to Yan Shiba, not bothering to put it in an envelope, and directly handed the paper to Gu Ling.

Gu Ling then gently passed the paper to Gu Xiaonuan with a smile.

Gu Xiaonuan took it and continued her previous action, successfully making the paper disappear.

“Nuannuan, close your eyes, do you see anything?” Gu Ling guided her kindly.

But Gu Xiaonuan wasn’t sleepy, and seeing Gu Ling close his eyes, she didn’t imitate him but leaned in to kiss him instead.

Gu Ling reached out and covered Gu Xiaonuan’s eyes.

Gu Xiaonuan thought they were playing hide and seek, temporarily lost interest in the “magic tricks”, loosened her grip on the “drop”, threw it to the side and laughed, “Where is big brother?”

“Big brother is here.”

“Second brother is here too.”

Zhengzheng and Ji Xiaoshu sighed in unison.

Making a one-year-old child understand what they are saying and follow through is not easy. Gu Xiaonuan is very smart, but spatial magical treasures are beyond her comprehension, let alone that of an adult. Moreover, Gu Ling and Su Liang’s understanding of the magical Jade Stone is very limited, and they don’t know the principle behind it and how to operate it.

Gu Ling took out a building block and performed a magic trick for Gu Xiaonuan by making the block disappear. Gu Xiaonuan clapped her hands happily, indicating that she could do it too.

But the focus was on the second half. The building block Gu Ling made vanish reappeared.

Gu Xiaonuan picked up two building blocks and bumped them together like before, but they didn’t disappear. She tilted her little head and was lost in confusion looking at the blocks.

Gu Ling then picked up the “drop” and replaced the building block in Gu Xiaonuan’s hand, asking her to try again.

Soon, Gu Xiaonuan made the building block disappear again. This time she realized that it was the piece of jade that was incredibly powerful.

Gu Xiaonuan held up the “drop” in her little hand and handed it to Gu Ling, then grabbed another building block and passed it to him, indicating for Gu Ling to play her magic trick too.

Gu Ling:… He couldn’t do it!

Gu Ling played a round of “traditional magic” again, encouraging Gu Xiaonuan to look for the disappeared building block.

But Gu Xiaonuan lost interest in magic tricks and reached out to call her two brothers, “Brother, Brother! Let’s go out and play!”

Gu Ling looked helpless, Gu Xiaonuan hadn’t really learned how to use her mind to control the space, she was just playing the game she played every day, capturing things in her hands and bumping them together, making a magic trick to make things disappear while the space received her instructions.

“Master’s wife, let us try!” Ji Xiaoshu volunteered, “We are kids too, and we know better how to communicate with the little sister.”

Gu Ling thought about it for a moment. Gu Xiaonuan probably didn’t have any intention of making her two brothers disappear in her mind, so there shouldn’t be any issues, and he agreed.

However, it was night time so it wasn’t suitable to go outside. Zhengzheng and Ji Xiaoshu took Gu Xiaonuan to their room next door to play. There were many toys there, like a mini amusement park.

Gu Ling and Su Liang leaned against the doorway watching, not going in but also not letting the children out of their sight.

“Should we let Nuannuan try dripping her blood on it?” Su Liang suggested.

Gu Ling shook his head, “It shouldn’t be a blood-master recognition, the magic treasure chooses its own master.”

Su Liang raised an eyebrow, “Now that you mention it, I think so too.”

Mo Yan said that he got the treasure during the Transmigration process, so perhaps the magic treasure chose Mo Yan simply because it was originally lost on the magical Transmigration Road, and Mo Yan was the only one who appeared.

Gu Ling and Su Liang, as well as Sheng Yue Cheng Yun, had all come into contact with the magic treasure and had dripped their own blood onto it. Although none of them held something for the magic treasure to swallow like Gu Xiaonuan did, their blood inherently belonged to objects outside the magic treasure, and at that moment, they all thought about letting the magic treasure absorb their blood. If it worked, at least that drop of blood should have disappeared.

At this point, Zhengzheng and Ji Xiaoshu had already tried it, imitating Gu Xiaonuan’s actions, holding a “droplet” in one hand and a building block in the other, thinking about making the building block disappear, but there was no change.

Therefore, there was only one answer, the spatial magical treasure chose Gu Xiaonuan.

“I am a Transmigrator, and you are a special ability user. From this perspective, Gu Xiaonuan’s bloodline is indeed more powerful than both of us,” Su Liang said, “even though she did not transmigrate nor has any special abilities.”

Gu Ling’s lips curved slightly, “Now Nuannuan has the ability. But I think it might be just because Nuannuan looks pretty.”

Su Liang held her forehead, understanding the thought process of a crazy-mother for her daughter.

Thinking that they should find a larger object that Gu Xiaonuan liked, something that would make her want to search for it after it disappeared, Ji Xiaoshu set his sights on the treasure tree that he and Zhengzheng had made for Gu Xiaonuan.

It was made from the Jade stones and pearls in the gifts sent by Mo Yan before, taller than Gu Xiaonuan and looked shiny and beautiful. Gu Xiaonuan loved it so much that the three siblings often played together, plucking fruit from the treasure tree.

Zhengzheng and Ji Xiaoshu moved the treasure tree in front of Gu Xiaonuan. Zhengzheng looked serious. As he spoke and gestured, he said, “Little sister, can you make this tree disappear with the treasure in your hand?”

Gu Xiaonuan tried to pluck the gemstones on the tree and didn’t understand what Zhengzheng was saying.

Ji Xiaoshu grabbed Gu Xiaonuan’s hand, guiding her to touch the treasure tree with the “water droplet” and said, “Little sister, make the tree disappear!”

Gu Xiaonuan finally understood and said cheerfully, “Little tree! Gone!”

The color of Gu Ling’s face changed and he rushed over, but it was still a step too late. The treasure tree and Ji Xiaoshu, who was holding Gu Xiaonuan’s hand, both disappeared…

Zhengzheng reached out to grab Ji Xiaoshu’s hand but found himself holding onto thin air. He stared blankly at the spot, “Little tree…Little tree!” He turned to look at Gu Liang and Su Liang in a daze, “Master, Mistress, Little tree got trapped inside, what should we do?”

As Su Liang comforted Zhengzheng not to be nervous, she softly asked the bewildered Gu Xiaonuan, “Nuannuan, where is your second brother?”

Gu Xiaonuan looked left and right, ran to the corner where Zhengzheng and Ji Xiaoshu used to play hide-and-seek, and then slapped the quilt on the bed, repeatedly calling “Second Brother”, but still couldn’t find Ji Xiaoshu. She threw herself into Su Liang’s arms and burst into tears, “Second Brother…Second Brother won’t come out…woo…Second Brother…is gone…I want Second Brother…”

Su Liang coaxed Gu Xiaonuan, “Don’t cry, look for your second brother, see if he is calling you somewhere.”

Gu Xiaonuan usually didn’t cry, but this time she cried very sadly and couldn’t hear what Su Liang was saying at all.

Gu Ling frowned and pondered for a moment, then picked up Gu Xiaonuan, wiped her tears, and coaxed her to say “Second Brother, come out.”

“Second Brother…I want Second Brother…” Gu Xiaonuan sobbed.

“Be good, Nuannuan, say ‘Second Brother, come out,’” Gu Ling patiently taught her.

Gu Xiaonuan then shouted out loud, “Second Brother…come out!”

Zhengzheng’s small face was tense, but no miracle happened, and the room was still devoid of Ji Xiaoshu.

Gu Xiaonuan buried her face in Gu Ling’s embrace, cried a few more times, and fell asleep after a while…

Zhengzheng sighed, “If Little Tree knew that he lost his little sister and could still sleep, he would definitely be heartbroken.”

“Nothing will happen,” Su Liang reassured Zhengzheng, and herself as well. “The droplet” is fine, so there shouldn’t be any problems with the space, it’s just maintaining its original state.

In just one day, the emotions of Gu Ling and Su Liang have risen and fallen. Gu Xiaonuan was already asleep, and they couldn’t force her to wake up and continue to learn how to open the space and release people. She was just an innocent child, who couldn’t understand or grow up to the point of being able to communicate instantly.

Gu Ling carried Gu Xiaonuan back to their room, placed her on the bed, gently wiped away her tears, covered her with a quilt, and sighed, “Let’s deal with it tomorrow.”

It was late at night, and Su Liang let Zhengzheng sleep in their room as well.

With both children asleep, Su Liang and Gu Ling sat on the bed, looking at each other in silence.

After a sigh, Gu Ling said, “It’s all my fault.”

Su Liang frowned, “Great God, what are you talking about?”

“If I had confessed my feelings to you earlier, Nuannuan would probably be three years old by now and we could communicate better,” Gu Ling said.

Su Liang held his forehead, “What does that have to do with anything?”

Gu Ling held Su Liang’s hand, pressed it to his face, “Is it a good thing? I mean, in the future. ” He didn’t doubt that Gu Xiaonuan could definitely release the people inside. It was just a matter of time, and it shouldn’t take too long. Gu Xiaonuan could actually understand many of their instructions, but the space was too mysterious, and there was no way to make her comprehend it intuitively. But maybe more time and patience would suffice.

Su Liang knew what Gu Ling was asking. After all the problems were solved, Gu Xiaonuan would possess that space, which would inevitably have a significant impact on her life.

“It’s a treasure. It’s a blessing to have received it, and Nuannuan has been chosen for it. Of course, it’s a good thing,” Su Liang said, “It will be interesting, and that space can also protect her.”

Gu Ling nodded, “You’re right.”

The two couldn’t sleep, discussing how to inspire Gu Xiaonuan to discover the space the next day. Suddenly, the sleeping Gu Xiaonuan raised her hand and slapped Zhengzheng’s face!

Zhengzheng woke up instantly, sat up, and subconsciously looked at Gu Xiaonuan, “Little sister.”

“Water Droplet” was under Gu Xiaonuan’s pillow. Gu Xiaonuan opened her eyes in a daze and called out to Zhengzheng, “Second brother…”

“I’m your big brother. Did you dream of your second brother?” Zhengzheng held Gu Xiaonuan and patted her gently.

“I saw… second brother…” Gu Xiaonuan rubbed her eyes.

Su Liang’s expression changed, Gu Ling quickly asked, “Nuannuan, where is your second brother?”

Gu Xiaonuan closed her eyes and called “Second brother,” then opened her eyes again. She couldn’t help but feel confused, “Huh… where is the second brother?”

Su Liang guessed that their daughter was currently experiencing a stage where the world she saw with her eyes open and the world she saw with her eyes closed were completely different. Perhaps Ji Xiaoshu was calling Gu Xiaonuan in the space?

“Little sister, close your eyes and say, ‘Second brother, come out,’ and he will,” Zhengzheng earnestly taught Gu Xiaonuan.

Gu Xiaonuan closed her eyes again, “Second brother! Second brother, come out!”

The next moment, Ji Xiaoshu fell head down onto the bed.

Gu Ling and Su Liang both heaved a sigh of relief and were delighted.

Ji Xiaoshu rolled over and sat on Gu Ling, looking at everything in front of him with a surprised and excited expression on his little face, “Haha! Success! I knew it, little sister would definitely find me!”

The three children happily rolled around together.

Gu Ling pulled Ji Xiaoshu over, “What about the others inside?”

Ji Xiaoshu nodded repeatedly, “I saw them! I saw Aunt Yan! But Aunt Yan didn’t get Master’s letter because the space is too big and the letter and blocks were too small. Little sister probably threw them somewhere. The treasure tree just happened to hit Aunt Yan on the head and gave her a big bump, haha!”

Unable to hold back his laughter, Su Liang said, “Good, Ji Xiaoshu has made a great contribution today. Now quickly teach your little sister and let her release the others.”

“Let’s go to the next room,” Gu Ling said. He couldn’t tolerate others falling on his and Su Liang’s bed.

“No problem!” Ji Xiaoshu patted his little chest, indicating that he had already experienced the new world.

Zhengzheng was envious, “When little sister is skilled, I want to go in and play too.”

The next moment, Gu Xiaonuan took out the “Water Droplet” from under her pillow and grabbed Zhengzheng with a smile, who disappeared from Gu Ling and Su Liang’s sight…

Then Gu Xiaonuan raised her little face and smiled brilliantly at Gu Ling and Su Liang, as if showing off her special ability.

Su Liang said in a faint tone, “Your daughter really knows how to do it now.”

Gu Ling nodded, “Let’s go in and play tomorrow.”
