When did he start tracking the master’s location and begin to plan?
And…
His appearance on Dali Mountain was just too coincidental…
When did he pin down the whereabouts of Junior Brother and Sister?
After a few bites, Mo Hua couldn’t help it and stealthily glanced at Gui Tao’s person, whispering:
“Uncle…”
“Back on Dali Mountain, were you already nearby?”
“Then watched as that Saint Heir surrounded us?”
“Waiting until Junior Sister and Junior Brother shattered their special Eternal Life Runes, losing their means of protection, before you acted…”
“Is it that, even you couldn’t do anything about the Eternal Life Runes?”
…
As Mo Hua spoke, he nodded, feeling his conjectures were fairly reasonable.
Finally, Gui Tao’s person couldn’t bear it any longer. His pitch-black eyes gazed at Mo Hua and uttered his first words of the journey:
“Eat your noodles…”
His voice was flat and indifferent, seemingly a bit displeased…
“Oh.”
Mo Hua obediently lowered his head and continued eating his bowl of noodles.
Until all the noodles in his bowl were finished, Mo Hua did not speak again.
Then he looked up at Gui Tao’s person, and involuntarily glanced at the untouched bowl of noodles in front of him, licking his lips.
Every grain and drop should be appreciated for its hard-won journey.
It must not be wasted.
Mo Hua silently reached out with his small hand, shifted Gui Tao’s noodles to his side, and then buried his head and huff, huff, huffed them down…
Gui Tao’s person’s usually expressionless face stiffened for a moment.
His pitch-black eyes watched Mo Hua, somewhat in disbelief…
…
After finishing two bowls of noodles, the two set off again.
Mo Hua felt slightly stuffed, his belly round and full, so he walked ahead, strolling to aid digestion.
Gui Tao’s person followed behind, looking puzzled at Mo Hua’s retreating figure.
This little thing… is quite strange…
He found it somewhat inscrutable.
It seemed as though his junior brother had laid some trick, hidden some secret, obscured some cause and effect…
What exactly had his junior brother hidden in this child?
What consequence had he obscured?
And why had he hidden the child so preciously, covered him up so thoroughly, keeping it all from him…
