Mythical Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2029: Chapter 1810: Divine Being’s Dream-Encyclopedia... (Part 2)

"Um, Sister Zhaoji, there’s no one to play with me," Xin Xianying said awkwardly.

Apart from Xin Xianying, the other students of Cai Yan were all older than thirteen or fourteen, and they certainly wouldn’t play house with a little girl of six or seven. Furthermore, when Cai Yan was teaching Xin Xianying in the mornings, she was her only student, and the maids wouldn’t play with Xin Xianying either.

"Call me Aunt," Cai Yan bent down, pinching Xin Xianying’s cheek and said, "I’m slightly older than your mother, so call me Aunt."

"Aunt Cai, let me go..." Xin Xianying pushed Cai Yan with her hand, then puffed her cheeks, "But Aunt Cai looks as young as Sister Mi’er."

"Flattering me won’t work. If Sister Mi’er hears what you said, she’ll definitely take care of you." Cai Yan tapped Xin Xianying’s forehead lightly, "If there’s no one to play with you, I’ll take you out to see my sister. Just reading all the time isn’t good."

Xin Xianying obediently grabbed Cai Yan’s hand, as Cai Yan took her along, "Your teacher really is something, not teaching you anything himself but always having me take care of you. But I don’t have children your age on my side either. Having no one to play with all the time isn’t good."

Xin Xianying quietly listened, whatever Cai Yan said was fine with her, "It’s not that I don’t teach children, I’m just not good at managing those younger kids. Thankfully, you’re smart; otherwise, even if Marquis Chen asked me, I wouldn’t agree."

"So if you feel lonely, then find a few kids, and I can teach all of you. But they must be smart enough, and if they’re not obedient, I’ll have to send them to Xiang’er for education." Cai Yan patted Xin Xianying’s circular hairdo.

Xin Xianying was startled by this and immediately clung to Cai Yan’s lower gown, always feeling that Ji Xiang’s place was very dangerous. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

"Xiang’er only seems dangerous, she’s actually quite nice," Cai Yan chuckled, "Besides, her medical skills are excellent; it was she who cured me last time when I fell ill."

Xin Xianying lowered her head without saying a word, she definitely wouldn’t talk about the scene she saw at the Medical Academy’s window; Ji Xiang is really dangerous.

"Sister, why do you want me to call you Aunt Cai? Even my teacher doesn’t let me call him teacher, and Elder Sister Fan also lets me call her sister," Xin Xianying asked, looking puzzled.

"Because Sister is almost turning into an Aunt," Cai Yan said helplessly, "Alright, children shouldn’t ask too many questions. You have to study in the afternoon. If you want companions, quickly find them, otherwise, if I look for one for you, it might not be suitable."

[Ah, it feels like my sister is dragging me down with her. Perhaps I should think about it too.] Cai Yan took Xin Xianying, knocked on the door, and then entered the Yangg Family.

Considering that Lul Xun had awakened his Spiritual Talent, Chen Xi planned to give Lul Xun a gift. However, Chen Xi was usually terrible at choosing gifts, so he didn’t want to embarrass himself. As a result, Chen Xi pondered briefly before deciding to combine it with Lul Xun’s ideas.

"Boyan, is there anything you want? To celebrate your awakening of Spiritual Talent, I intend to give you a gift. Is there anything you desire?" Chen Xi thought for a moment before speaking to Lul Xun, "Of course, if it’s something I can’t accomplish, I won’t grant it; otherwise, I’ll fulfill it depending on my mood."

Lul Xun looked speechlessly at his teacher; it was truly the first time he saw someone so straightforward when making promises, almost as if he was just seeking opinions for reference.

"I’d like a fan," Lul Xun subtly suggested to his teacher.

"Oh, oh, oh, I can make that happen." Just as Chen Xi started rummaging for fans, he finally picked up his folding fan. By the way, Chen Xi’s folding fan was replaced again with one that clearly felt heavy in hand, and Chen Xi was ready to give it to Lul Xun.

However, Guo Jia beat him to it, producing another black and white feather fan of Zhuge Liang’s and handed it to Lul Xun, saying, "Ah, Boyan, your wish has come true. Keep working hard."

At that moment, Chen Xi silently retracted his folding fan, having forgotten its other meaning. Since he changes fans frequently, others completely treat it as an identity item and generally don’t use them.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it seems it’s not the right time yet," Chen Xi said with a giggle, "Go have fun with the feather fan first."

"Alright..." Lul Xun said helplessly, with a somewhat crestfallen look, while Zhuge Liang quietly took away the feather fan from Lul Xun’s hand, also one of Huang Yueying’s creations, which he wouldn’t give to Lul Xun.

"Since you ended up with nothing in hand, I’ll give you another chance; tell me what you want? But don’t think about exploiting loopholes." Chen Xi, seeing Lul Xun staring dumbfoundedly as Zhuge Liang took the fan back, smiled and said.

Lul Xun felt a bit stunned; his teacher was just as unreliable in times of reliability. But this kind of wishing among such a large group, then saying it couldn’t be fulfilled, such as not realizing it; only Chen Xi could be so candid.

"Hurry up, hurry up, if you don’t speak soon, it’ll be too late," Chen Xi urged, fearing Lul Xun would propose something difficult to fulfill. Although his integrity wasn’t high, he felt some pressure to renege in front of such a large group.

Lul Xun hesitated a bit, as he truly didn’t have anything he needed. Although Chen Xi mostly ignored him, if he needed anything, Chen Xi would promptly find it for him. freёwebnovel.com

"Ask Zichuan for the Encyclopedia," Mi Zhu advised quickly via voice transmission as he saw Lul Xun hesitate.

Meanwhile, Jia Xu, Guo Jia, and others who had heard Chen Xi’s boasting also transmitted to Lul Xun, "Ask for the Encyclopedia."

"What is that?" Lul Xun was completely unaware of such a book.

"A book claiming that whatever knowledge you want to know can be found, and even if you can’t, it’ll introduce you to the basics, a book your teacher once talked about when we got him drunk," Guo Jia giggled via voice transmission to Lul Xun.

"I want the Encyclopedia," Lul Xun decisively requested. Given that Guo Jia said something like that, even if some parts were false, they were likely close; is there really such a book in the world?

Chen Xi was sweating profusely, "Why don’t you ask for something else? Your teacher, who is me, has seen it, but it’s absolutely unavailable now."

Even the Chinese edition, as long as it isn’t abridged, contains nearly two billion words. Chen Xi himself had never finished it, mainly having read part of it. Thankfully, his Spiritual Capacity was enhanced, allowing him to remember several million words at least.

Forget about giving one to Lul Xun now; even transcribing his memories would leave Chen Xi hopeless. Handwriting several million words would be deadly.

"Uh, can I have a part of it?" Lul Xun asked with hopeful eyes.

"Your teacher, which is me, can barely manage to read one-third of it; how can I get you a full copy?" Chen Xi said irritably, "As for the other content, aren’t I already teaching you?"

"What is this Encyclopedia you mentioned?" Xun Yu curiously inquired.

"Zichuan’s true study material," Guo Jia smiled and replied, "He’s learning from it, claiming it encompasses everything, so any knowledge can be found, learning basics if not."

"How can such an extraordinary book exist in this world?" Chen Qun laughed heartily while Chen Xi maintained a poker face.

"That’s because you’ve never seen it," Chen Xi replied grumpily, "Do you estimate how many words that book contains?"

"A few million words?" Zhou Yu smiled; even during an era where ten thousand words constituted a vast work, a million truly felt mythical.

Chen Xi rolled his eyes at Zhou Yu, "That book contains nearly two billion words, plus tens of thousand attached images, categorized into over sixty classes."

The moment the scene fell silent, everyone was truly shocked—two billion words, was this book really prepared for people?

"Ahem, Zichuan, how much have you read?" Chen Qun asked with a twitch of his mouth.

"About one-third, I couldn’t go beyond that," Chen Xi thought aloud.

The others looked skyward, feeling there was now a reason for losing. As for where the book was, the phenomenon of Divine Being Deliverance in dreams was quite famous in this era.
