“Why back away so far? Isn’t everyone here my person?”
The three were Bailuo’s Miracle Citizens and miracles.
As long as one person completed the task, the miracle would belong to Bailuo.
The elder sister and the uncle were also used to it, instinctively treating it as Bailuo’s private property.
“But I really don’t know if you can help me contract the miracle.”
As Miracle Citizens, it would definitely be feasible.
But what Bailuo didn’t know was whether the Black Leather Book could consider the uncle and elder sister as his hands and feet to help him complete it.
Outsiders, definitely not.
The Black Leather Book was formidable indeed, but it had a flaw, that Bailuo could not use it to find miracles for others.
Someone might ask, why is that so?
Actually, it was due to the mechanism of the Black Leather Book.
Firstly, the Black Leather Book required Bailuo to personally obtain the miracle, then it would display the content of the miracle and provide hints for the next task.
If it were given to someone else, the information on the Black Leather Book would be lost because it would be in someone else’s hands.
Similarly, if after seeing the first task, one gave the item to another, then the other party could only complete that one task.
And after completing a task, the miracle would bind completely with the other party, and Bailuo could no longer obtain subsequent tasks through the Black Leather Book.
Hence, the Black Leather Book could not help people find miracles.
Bailuo had not tried out these pieces of information.
But after the power of the Mysterious Dragon had influenced the Black Leather Book, Bailuo obtained a lot of knowledge that he didn’t have before from the Black Leather Book.
This knowledge came from there.
“Still, just in case.”
The uncle still didn’t want to get too close. He said, “Literally, it certainly means to forge the Silver Cup and the Golden Sword.”
“Beyond Twilight, the Night of the Holy Spirit’s Descent, these two should be times.”
Elder sister: “Beyond, twilight, the sun sets, could it be referring to evening?”
“The Night of the Holy Spirit’s Descent, listening to it, sounds like it could be early morning?”
The uncle also added his view.
“What about smearing blood on the door and the Four-Sided Stone then, how do we interpret these two lines?”
The elder sister raised the question, and the uncle said, “I once heard of a special festival where they would smear the blood of a lamb on the door, and have people walk under it at twilight, symbolizing a crossing over from life to death.”
“The following sentence,” the uncle said, “the meaning of the first sentence might be for us to bring out the forged Silver Cup through a door smeared with the fresh blood of sacrificial animals at twilight.”
“At the precise time, forge the precise objects, then complete a ritualistic action.”
Bailuo nodded repeatedly on the side. He thought of the Mysterious Dragon, which seemed to be the same: “Only seven days. Doesn’t seem to require a special day. Any special days coming up soon?”
“Actually, there is.”
“Tomorrow is the commemoration of Feiya and the girl’s father,” the uncle said, “and it’s his birthday the day after tomorrow.”
“…”
Bailuo looked at the elder sister in surprise. Regarding Feiya’s father, Bailuo had once heard about him from the uncle.
But that was a matter of sorrow, and Bailuo would not bring it up actively.
The People of Yatun didn’t have the tradition of tomb sweeping. Even when paying homage to ancestors, it would be directed toward the public, not specially commemorating an individual.
“Without realizing it, over a decade has passed,” the uncle said wistfully, “If he was still here, he would definitely be the mainstay of our Yatun.”
Unfortunately, the father-in-law had offended Count Thorn and was pursued by his Miracle Troop Type.
The uncle desperately fought to break out with him, but in the end, he couldn’t hold on.
Before dying, the father-in-law entrusted his two daughters to the uncle.
“Xiao Sa was exceptional,” the uncle said, “He was ten years my junior. We fought battles in the south and the north, we were both teachers and friends, reliant on each other.”
After retiring from the battlefield, the uncle, elder uncle, Elder Mountain Grandpa, and Lu Wei, Silver Leaf, and others, went adventuring together everywhere.
Those were their most free times.
Sadly, following the events of those years, the team parted ways, and the uncle truly missed those old comrades.
“Count Thorn…”
Bailuo hadn’t forgotten the sins committed by Count Thorn and the Iron Eagle King against them.
Towards Morgan, they had no grudges, just conflicting interests.
If necessary, Bailuo could completely make peace with him for the benefit of the nation and the people.
But Count Thorn…
The victor is the king, the vanquished are the bandits.
Between Yatun and Thorns, there was no so-called justice or evil, nor any benevolence, righteousness, or morality.
It was just something they had to do, nothing more!
“We, will return.”
Bailuo gently embraced Isefia, grasping her hand but not saying much.
Because a multitude of words were not as meaningful as actual action.
This was not only to avenge Isefia and Inya, but also for the Yatun Village of old, for the hundreds of villagers who had watched Bailuo grow up since he was little.
An eye for an eye, blood for blood!
“Yes.”
The elder sister was very calm, not wavering in the slightest due to hatred.
“The Night of the Holy Spirit’s Descent, if it is early in the morning, then what’s next?”
Bailuo refocused his attention on the miracle of the seventh page: “What does this Four-Sided Stone refer to?”
“The Four-Sided Stone is just a square stone.”
The uncle said, “This is also a custom I came across when I was traveling through various countries.”
“Really just the literal Four-Sided Stone, huh!”
Bailuo had guessed but thought the ‘four sides’ could also possibly be the four directions in geography.
“It should just be the Four-Sided Stone.”
The uncle said, “At a place I used to travel, the locals would use a huge Four-Sided Stone to commemorate the dead, appease the Holy Spirit, and also use it for certain holy ceremonies as a platform to place holy items.”
