Chapter 589 - 589 Water, Water, Water
589 Water, Water, Water
Su Xiaolu leaned intimately on Su Chong’s shoulder and asked softly, “Brother, I still remember. You said that I’m going to be an aunt. Is that true?”
Su Chong looked at Su Xiaolu’s sparkling eyes and nodded. “It’s true. Yaoyao is more than two months pregnant.”
“That’s great. I wonder if it’s a boy or a girl.”
Su Xiaolu smiled and imagined it. She felt sweet in her heart. Whether it was a boy or a girl, her parents would definitely like it.!!
Her big brother was going to be a father.
“Xiaolu, rest well. Just call them if anything happens.”
Zhou Heng said gently.
He got up and went out. It was rare for there to be sunlight in the forest today. Everything was developing in a good direction. It was good news.
With Su Xiaolu’s detailed insights, he believed that they could get what they wanted.
Su Xiaolu was just a little girl. She had proven with facts that as long as they did not give up, they would definitely survive.
“Big Brother, you have to remember that no matter how much pain there is, as long as you hold on to your beliefs, you will definitely be able to get through it. When it was so painful, I couldn’t speak. I couldn’t even control my emotions. However, there’s one thing for certain. I never wavered my heart. Really, this place is very good. I can’t let all of you go.”
Su Xiaolu smiled at Su Chong with tears in her eyes. “I thought about the past over and over again. I remember that when I was very young, you, our brother and sister would bring me the sour and sweet fruits in the mountains. Even if you accidentally crushed them, you couldn’t bear to eat them yourself. Your arms were so warm.”
“Don’t worry, Big Brother won’t give up.”
Su Chong rubbed Su Xiaolu’s hair and recalled the past. He was happy every day when he was with his family.
Even when he ate the rough corn club, he felt that it was sweet and fragrant. Those tastes were forever engraved in his heart. His younger siblings, parents, no matter when he thought about it, his heart felt very warm.
Time had unknowingly given them a lot of sweetness. No matter how hard it was in the future, they could survive it.
Su Chong stood up and went out.
Su Xiaolu giggled for a while before she began to check where the mark was.
There was nothing on her hands, legs, or thighs. In the end, she thought for a moment and felt a chill in her chest. She looked down and saw that there seemed to be a drop of condensation hanging on her chest. It was like a crystal. It was so beautiful.
She reached out to touch it and felt a cool touch on her fingers. With a thought, water quickly covered her hands, as if she was wearing a pair of transparent gloves.
It was so comfortable. She felt the closeness of the water.
Water was the source of life. All creatures in the world could not live without water, and more than half of the mortal bodies were water. This was enough to prove how important water was.
Humans were made of water. Water was the source of life, the source of everything. With water, she could kill without spilling blood.
If she could control all the blood in a person’s body, would they still be alive?
The water was also a bed.
Su Xiaolu knew clearly that the water ability she sensed, including the mark on her chest, made her understand that her water ability was different.
There were many stars, but every star could not be duplicated. Each one was unique.
In the afternoon, Su Chong and Zhou Heng began to prepare. They ate their fill and nursed their spirits to their optimal state.
At night, Su Chong, Zhou Heng, and some others began to sit down.
Su Xiaolu and the others guarded with Zhou Heng’s secret guards.
They had heard everything Su Xiaolu said, so it was very quiet for the first few hours.
Everyone was guarding against sneak attacks from beasts.
When they sensed it, time would start to pass differently for them.
Therefore, in the first half of the night, no one moved. In the second half of the night, everyone began to react one after another.
There was fire, water, wood, wind, rain, and so on.
Gradually, only Su Chong and Zhou Heng were left.
When it was almost dawn, Su Chong and Zhou Heng also sensed their abilities.
Su Chong’s body was covered in a layer of gold, as if he had been gold plated. From his limbs, Su Chong’s entire body slowly became golden.
Zhou Heng’s body was also golden. Both of them were golden.
Soon, they revealed painful expressions.
That kind of pain made them tremble uncontrollably. It was really too painful.
However, no one could help them. They could only endure it themselves.
Su Chong and Zhou Heng woke up and looked at each other. Both of them revealed smiles that were uglier than crying.
Because of the pain, they couldn’t even smile.
This process was the most torturous. From dawn to dusk, Zhou Heng began to ease up.
After four hours, Su Chong began to ease up.
The pain passed and everything returned to normal.
Su Chong, Zhou Heng, and the others ate something and rested in peace.
After dawn, everyone recovered their spirits and began to report their abilities to Zhou Heng.
Zhou Heng smiled and said to Su Xiaolu and the others, “I sensed gold. I didn’t expect me and Chong to be the same.”
Su Chong also smiled. He didn’t expect this either.
“Brother, tell me how you felt. Was it the same as what I said?”
Su Xiaolu asked with concern.
There were many wrong guesses that needed to be confirmed.
Su Chong thought for a moment and said, “Xiaolu, it was a little different.”
Zhou Heng nodded in agreement. “It’s a little different.”
Su Chong looked at Zhou Heng and said, “At first, when I entered that strange state, it was the same as what Xiaolu said. Later on, after I could sense it more clearly, including when I seemed to be able to see them, it was the same as what Xiaolu said. However, when I wanted to grab the glowing one, I couldn’t. I could sense it, but I couldn’t. I tried a few times and really couldn’t catch it, so I gave up. Then, I chose the largest one and grabbed it.”
Zhou Heng pondered for a moment and smiled. “I’m the same. I tried to catch it, but I couldn’t. I didn’t give up and didn’t want to give up. I tried many times, but all of a sudden, I realized that I couldn’t see those that would glow. I couldn’t even see the others clearly. I was afraid that there would be nothing left in the end, so I made a decision.”
This ability-giving meditation was not that simple. If someone refused to give up, would they not be able to see and obtain the ability in the end? No one knew.
The profoundness of this would need to be explored, and it might never be understood.
“Perhaps, it’s not us who are selecting the ability, but the ability who is selecting the person.”
Zhou Heng’s eyes were deep as he said meaningfully.
Through various connections, he felt that this might be the case.
As for sensing abilities, there were still too few of them. Moreover, these insights were usually not shared with outsiders. This was the most precious thing. Perhaps in the future, it would become the most important point of whether a country was strong or not.
