Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 1043 Orphan Note
"Thank you so much just now."

The first start bell had already sounded, and the practitioners who had listened to the rules went to the eight lottery pots beside the wrestling ring. Among the walking crowd, Ji Jiashu thanked Mo Hua who was walking behind him.

Mo Hua stopped in his tracks and squinted at him, "Did you thank the wrong person?"

"You can convey it to me later," Ji Jiashu said, looking at Ying Baoyue and Meng Shi who were walking side by side.

"You should thank her," Mo Hua stared at the two girls who were talking in front of him, "She didn't even show up when Xu Bingqing bullied her younger sister."

But it was also because Meng Ge had warned her that Mo Hua had heard the two "brothers and sisters" quarreling. Meng Ge said that if Meng Shi offended the Holy Maiden of the Northern Wei Dynasty for some trivial matter of hers, she would sever the sibling relationship with Meng Shi.

"Really?" Ji Jiashu was a little surprised, but with Meng Shi Mengge's background, it was very normal to be wary of the saints of the Northern Wei Dynasty. In the Northern Wei Dynasty, Xu Bingqing could even easily crush the pair of sisters to death.

However, practitioners will be regarded as national resources by the royal family after they become God Dance Realm, and even nobles cannot easily kill them.

It is normal for practitioners to straighten their backs after being promoted to the fifth rank, but Ji Jiashu always felt that something was wrong when he saw the girl dressed as a man walking beside Ying Baoyue in front of her.

"She seldom had conflicts with Xu Bingqing in Nanchu before," Ji Jiashu said softly, "but it seems a little different after arriving in Soochow."

"It's not after arriving in Soochow," Mo Hua said quietly. He has been by Meng Shi's side all the time, and he knows Meng Shi's changes better than anyone else.

"You don't know, she has always been stubborn." Mo Hua said quietly.

Even stubborn to cold.

This girl named Meng Shi has always treated herself with a kind of cold cruelty.

But all of this was still introverted when Nan Chu participated in the primary ceremony, and Meng Shi had always been alienated and indifferent towards Xu Bingqing's domineering.

Xu Bingqing's hostility and making things difficult for her, as Meng Shi said before, she has always treated her indifferently and never resisted.

Meng Shi was cold in his heart. Before he came to Nanchu to meet the former Qin woman, Mo Hua had never noticed that Meng Shi was interested in anyone other than Meng Ge.

He is so indifferent and world-weary that he doesn't look like a fire magician, he just practiced the fire magic sword with an obsession in his heart.

Her identity as a woman disguised as a man does not allow her to have an intimate relationship with anyone. She is wary of everyone except Meng Ge, and even he dare not step too much.

But after Nan Chu met the princess surnamed Ying, Mo Hua discovered that this indifferent girl who had hidden too much had changed.

Like an iceberg melting little by little, Meng Shi had many expressions on his face.

But the real change in Meng Shi was when Ying Baoyue was not by her side.

"The real change happened more than half a month ago," Mo Hua stared at Yingding in front of him and said, "after she advanced to the fifth level."

He didn't know what happened when she entered the advanced stage. Meng Shi broke through without letting anyone protect her, so he could only stay on the periphery in fear, but fortunately, she broke through without any accidents.

But after breaking through, Meng Shi's acting style changed.

Becoming Tier [-] does mean having more capital, but with Meng Shi's introverted and cautious temperament, Mo Hua doesn't think it can bring her such a big change.

"What is the specific change?" Ji Jiashu asked.

"She has become...a lot more fearless." Mo Hua frowned, thinking about his words.

Whether it was rescuing Ying Baoyue at the city gate and confronting Xu Bingqing, or opposing some of Beihan Pavilion's practices in the middle-level ceremony, or just punishing those gossipers on the spot, they were much more radical than before.

"This..." Ji Jiashu was stunned, and looked at the two girls in front of him, "At first hearing this statement, it seems to be infected by hugging the moon."

After all, he had never seen a woman who was more daring than Ying Baoyue, fearlessness was simply her characteristic.

"You're quite right, but that's why I'm worried," Mo Hua glanced at Ji Jiashu, "To be honest, don't you think your fiancée was not right from the beginning?"

"What do you mean?" The person who frowned now turned into Ji Jiashu, who looked at Mo Hua with an unkind look, "Don't think it's you, I won't be angry if you say that about her."

"Don't get me wrong," Mo Hua raised his hand helplessly, "I'm just making an analogy, there is no malice."

"Really?" Ji Jiashu asked suspiciously.

"You've become something wrong too," Mo Hua said helplessly, "You see, she's too heavy."

He had sensed Ji Jiashu's intentions early on in Southern Chu, but he never expected it to have developed to such an extent.

"Are you qualified to say that about me?" Ji Jiashu gave him a white look, "What did you mean by that just now?"

"From the first time I saw her in Nanchu, I had an illusion." Mo Hua stared at the background of Ying Baoyue in front of him, and said softly, "She always has a feeling that she will burn out in the next moment."

Ji Jiashu's pupils shrank slightly, and his heart tightened, "You, what the hell..."

"Don't panic, you know I'm not sure." Mo Hua glanced at Li Ji not far away and shrugged. "My realm is not as high as Zhaohua's, and my vision is not as poisonous as his."

He just had an illusion that the former princess of Qin seemed to be living too hastily.

She seems to want to finish everything in a short time, and there is no chance or time to fail.

This illusion seems to imply some ominous ending. Before there is no definite basis, Mo Hua thinks it is better not to tell Ji Jiashu.

"Since you are so delusional, why can't you find Meng Shi's problem?" Ji Jiashu glanced at Mo Hua and said.

"I really don't understand," Mo Hua stared at Meng Shi in front of him.

Maybe it was because he was afraid to understand.

Today's Meng Shi always has a sense of all-or-nothing.

She went forward bravely, and he stood behind her, but he was a little scared.

Panicked, she didn't know when, as if she would disappear in front of him.

……

……

While the teenagers behind were discussing, Ying Baoyue and Meng Shi in front were also talking.

"Thank you just now." Ying Baoyue aimed at the No. [-] lottery and thanked Meng Shi as he walked.

"It's nothing, it's just a little effort." Meng Shi smiled and said.

"You've already saved me twice, but you can't say it's just a matter of effort," Ying Baoyue said with a smile, "Don't learn from someone."

"Someone?" Meng Shi was taken aback, "Who is it?"

"A person who would say it was by the way every time he saved me," Ying Baoyue shrugged, but she didn't dwell on this issue.

"Don't talk about other people's affairs," she reached out and grabbed Meng Shi's arm, "I'm really grateful for your help many times, but what's the matter with you?"

Meng Shi's eyes paused slightly, and he said lightly, "What's going on? Is it so unusual for me to fight back?"

"It's not unusual, as long as you have the awareness," Ying Baoyue stared fixedly at her, and suddenly opened a barrier to cut off the sound of their conversation.

"But Meng Shi, the step-son of the Northern Wei Dynasty I know, the one who applied Shi, he is not this type of practitioner."

In the past, even if Meng Shi wanted to help her, he would take a more roundabout way instead of being so straightforward.

Of course, Ying Baoyue never thought that was timid. Everyone has their own weaknesses. Meng Shi bears the secret of disguised as a man and bears the burden of taking care of his younger sister.

Generally, people with this kind of burden will only be happy with kindness and hatred when they are about to die. As the saying goes, people with bare feet are not afraid of wearing shoes.

The frightening thing is that the current Meng Shi gives her such a feeling.

"What happened?" Ying Baoyue looked at Meng Shi and asked softly.

Meng Shi quietly glanced at the girl beside him, and suddenly asked, "Your Highness, have you seen Epiphyllum?"

"I've seen it," Ying Baoyue was taken aback, "The soup is delicious."

Meng Shi was stunned after hearing this, and suddenly bent down and laughed, "That is to say, this is your first reaction. It seems that you can only talk directly about anything."

"What's the matter?" Ying Baoyue looked at her fixedly.

Meng Shi put away the smile on the corner of his mouth, looked at Ying Baoyue and said seriously.

"Your Highness, I'm having my period."

　Popular science, Meng Shi should be 17 years old now
