Xu Bai heard Ying Yue’s words and subconsciously glanced over.
When he saw what was inside, his eyes could not move away.
“Wait, don’t move!” Xu Bai said.
Ying Yue was stunned.
However, since Xu Bai had said so, she did not move and maintained this position.
The black shadow split open, and Xu Bai saw piles of books inside. There were more than twenty books.
Most importantly, there was a golden progress bar on these books.
“How did you get these things? Also, why didn’t I notice when I entered the shadow?”Xu Bai pointed at the books and asked.
” A few decades ago, when my father came here, he got these things. He gave them all to me, saying that I would need them.””
“I don’t know what it’s used for either. My shadow can be separated. I put things inside and will specially separate the shadows that put things inside.”
Xu Bai was speechless.
Coincidence, coincidence again and again. When coincidences piled up, it was a design.
Director Mu had been to this place decades ago, so he must have taken everything away.
However, he did not expect that after he took the item away, he would actually give it to Shadow Moon, and even say that it was of great use.
Only Xu Bai knew what it was used for. It would be of great use to him.
The progress bar!
These were all living progress bars!
There were more than 20 progress bars, which made Xu Bai even more suspicious.
There was definitely something wrong with Director Mu!
He had definitely counted himself in, and he had calculated it very accurately.
“Could it be that he knows about my cheat? Impossible, there must be something else.”Xu Bai guessed in his heart,
However, no matter how he guessed, it was useless. He could only wait until he returned to Great Chu and personally ask Director Mu. That would be the most correct.
“Take out the things first,” Xu Bai said after thinking it through.”Take out all these books.””
Although Shadow Moon did not know what Xu Bai was thinking, she still obediently took out all the books.
Looking at the progress bar in front of him, Xu Bai felt complicated.
He had never thought that the ending would be so simple. This progress bar had always been hidden by Shadow Moon. If he had known this earlier, he would not have gone through so much trouble.
“Do you want to eat?” Ying Yue suddenly came over and stretched out her fair little hand, holding a pastry in her hand.
Xu Bai took it and suddenly remembered something. He asked,””Other than these books, is there only food in your shadow?”
Shadow Moon nodded.” I’ve always been a spy. I know I only have half a year left, so I’ve brought delicious food. I want to eat all the food I haven’t eaten before.””
“I mean, is there anything else?” Xu Bai asked.”
He still remembered what the crazy old man had said in the ruins.
Not only were there secret manuals here, but there were also the crazy old man’s speculations about the era when resources were exhausted.
Shadow Moon pondered for a moment, then said,” No, my father only gave me these things. I think there are others that my father took away.””
Hearing this, Xu Bai didn’t ask any more questions. He took the pastry from Ying Yue’s hand and took a bite.
It seemed that Director Mu had probably taken away that guess. When the time came, she would go back and ask him anyway, so she could ask him along the way.
“I’m sorry, I’ve harmed you. We can only live for half a year.”Ying Yue said apologetically.
Ever since Xu Bai came down, Shadow Moon had apologized many times. She always felt that she had harmed Xu Bai.
“There’s always a way out. We’ll take it one step at a time. Besides, it’s not a certain death situation.”Xu Bai picked up a book and started reading silently.
In a desperate situation, he would never give up hope. No matter how cruel the situation was, he would never give up easily.
Moreover, there was still the brocade bag.
Although he couldn’t open it now, he might be surprised if he encountered danger.
The plan now was to use half a year’s time to finish all 20 books.
Shadow Moon opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, she shut her mouth.
The Prime Minister of the Great Yue State, who was at the peak of the Saint Realm, would be able to hunt them down in an instant.
“Alright, that’s it. We’ll see when the time comes.”Xu Bai said.
Shadow Moon nodded and said no more.
The entire space fell silent.
Time slowly passed.
This time, nearly half a year had passed.
In the past half a year, Xu Bai and Shadow Moon had been staying here. They didn’t have to worry about food. Shadow Moon had brought enough, and Xu Bai had been constantly checking the progress bar.
During this period of time, Xu Bai realized that Shadow Moon was actually a very pitiful person.
She had been living in the Great Yue State since she was young. However, she was from the Great Chu State and had an extremely important mission. Moreover, she knew that she would definitely die. Therefore, she had been living in an extremely sad environment since she was young.
However, this woman had principles. She knew that everything she did was right, so she was willing to endure it.
Xu Bai didn’t know how to evaluate it, because he had never come into contact with such things.
He knew that Shadow Moon was carrying a heavy burden. Even when there was only half a year left, all she wanted was to eat something delicious.
Without suffering, you are not worthy of comment.
Putting down the book in his hand, Bai stood up.
“Finally, it’s over.”
