Chapter 162: Eager to Seek Treasure
It was a quiet night, and the Regent's Palace was filled with peace and tranquility. In the courtyard where Xiao Muhan lived, moonlight fell on the ground like water, as if covering the entire courtyard with a layer of silver gauze.
Little Mu Han was sitting on a small, delicate stool, his small hands gently supporting his rosy cheeks as he stared intently at Xing Luo Heng in front of him. His big, round eyes were filled with curiosity, and his pink lips were slightly pouted, as if he was thinking about something.
Being stared at so intently by this little fellow, Xing Luoheng couldn't help but frown slightly, "Why are you not sleeping so late and looking at me?" There was a hint of helplessness and confusion in his tone.
Little Mu Han blinked his eyes and said in a baby voice, "I couldn't sleep, so I wanted to see you." His voice was crisp and tender, like the chirping of a yellow oriole in spring.
Xing Luoheng sighed helplessly, "You're just a kid. You won't grow tall if you don't sleep."
Xiao Muhan shook his head and said, "I'm not afraid. I just want to talk to you." His eyes showed stubbornness and persistence.
Xing Luoheng looked at his adorable appearance, and the annoyance in his heart dissipated a little. "Then what do you want to say?"
Little Mu Han smiled and said, "Uncle, do you have any other magic weapons? Give them to me." His clear big eyes were full of desire, and his little hands tightly grasped the corner of Xing Luoheng's clothes and shook it gently.
When little Mu Han heard this, he muttered, "Uncle is lying." His little face was full of suspicion, but he didn't let go of the hand that was holding Xing Luoheng's clothes.
Xing Luoheng said with a teasing look in his eyes: "I'm really not lying to you. The only two magic weapons my uncle has left are the Qingfeng Ling and the Biyu Fan, and you have taken them away." The corners of his mouth rose with a teasing smile.
Little Mu Han widened his eyes, "Uncle, I don't believe it, you must have hidden something else." As he spoke, he shook the corner of Xing Luoheng's clothes, not giving in.
Xing Luoheng smiled and shook his head, "Little Muhan, uncle really didn't lie to you. I gave you these two treasures. I have nothing now."
Little Mu Han said with a puzzled look on his face: "Uncle, when did you give it to us? How come I didn't know?" His big round eyes stared straight at Xing Luoheng, full of confusion and curiosity.
Xing Luoheng coughed lightly and explained, "It was just a while ago. Little Muhan, you might have been having too much fun and didn't notice."
Little Mu Han frowned and tried hard to recall, "But uncle, I really don't have any impression at all."
Xing Luoheng smiled and patted his head. "At that time, you were running around in the yard with your friends. Your uncle gave the magic weapon to your father, so you naturally didn't see it."
Little Mu Han was still a little skeptical, "Really? Uncle, please don't lie to me."
Xing Luoheng pretended to be angry and said, "When has your uncle ever lied to you? If you don't believe me, go ask your father."
Little Mu Han grumbled, "Okay, I'll ask when I see Daddy.
Xing Luoheng smiled, tapped his little head and said, "Go to sleep, or you won't grow taller."
Little Mu Han pouted in dissatisfaction, "Uncle, don't hit my head, it will make me stupid."
Xing Luoheng laughed, "Okay, uncle won't knock anymore, go to sleep quickly."
Little Mu Han still kept his eyes wide open, "Uncle, I'm not sleepy yet."
Xing Luoheng pretended to be serious, "You have to sleep even if you're not sleepy. Children need enough sleep to be healthy."
Little Mu Han twisted his body reluctantly, "Okay then, uncle, you have to sleep with me."
Xing Luoheng nodded, "Okay, uncle will sleep with you.
When little Mu Han heard this, he immediately danced with joy, "That's great, uncle!" He quickly moved inside the bed to make room for Xing Luoheng.
Xing Luoheng took off his shoes, lay down next to Xiao Muhan, and pulled the quilt over them.
Little Mu Han clung to Xing Luoheng, resting his little head on his uncle's arm. "Uncle, I'm not afraid of nightmares when you're here."
Xing Luoheng smiled and said, "Go to sleep, baby, your uncle will always be with you."
Xiao Muhan closed his eyes, and soon, the sound of even breathing could be heard. He had fallen into a sweet dream.
Xing Luoheng looked at little Mu Han's quiet and cute sleeping face, gently kissed him on the forehead, then closed his eyes and prepared to fall asleep.
The moonlight shines into the house through the window, and everything seems so peaceful and beautiful.
The next morning, as soon as little Mu Han woke up, he jumped out of bed impatiently. Without even having time to put on his clothes, he ran to Yun Mo Han in a hurry to ask for the magic weapon.
Along the way, little Mu Han kept thinking about how to talk to his father, and his pace became faster and faster. When he arrived at Yun Mo Han's door, he didn't even bother to knock and rushed in.
"Daddy, Daddy!" Little Mu Han shouted loudly.
Yun Mohan was handling matters at the case and was a little surprised by Xiao Muhan's sudden intrusion.
"Little Mu Han, why are you so reckless?" Yun Mo Han frowned.
Little Mu Han ran to Yun Mo Han, grabbed his sleeve, and said expectantly, "Daddy, uncle said he gave you the magic weapon for safekeeping, I want it!"
Yun Mohan smiled helplessly, "You kid, you only know about magic weapons."
Little Mu Han shook Yun Mo Han's arm and said coquettishly, "Daddy, just give it to me. I will keep it well."
Yun Mohan touched Xiao Muhan's head and refused: "I can't give you this magic weapon for the time being."
Xiao Muhan's face instantly fell, and he cried, "Daddy, why? I really want it."
Yun Mohan patiently explained, "Xiao Muhan, this magic weapon is extremely powerful. You are unable to control it with your current ability. Giving it to you may bring danger."
Little Mu Han said stubbornly: "Daddy, I'm not afraid of danger. I will be careful."
Yun Mohan sighed softly: "Child, being careful won't solve the problem. When you grow up and have more achievements in your cultivation, Daddy will naturally give the magic weapon to you."
Little Mu Han still didn't give up, "Daddy, how long do we have to wait?"
Yun Mohan said earnestly, "As long as you practice diligently and strive to improve, this day will not be too far away."
Little Mu Han bit his lip and said, "Okay, Daddy, I will practice hard then."
After saying that, Xiao Muhan hung his head and slowly walked out of the room with a bit of disappointment.
Yun Mohan saw that he was a little disappointed, so he called him from behind and said with a smile: "Go ask your uncle for it again. He must have many treasures that he hasn't taken out yet."
Little Mu Han's originally dim eyes instantly lit up, "Really, Daddy?"
Yun Mohan nodded, "Of course it's true, go and try it."
Little Mu Han immediately perked up and turned around to run to his uncle Xing Luoheng. Along the way, his little head kept imagining what his uncle's treasures that hadn't been taken out would look like.
Arriving at his uncle's door, Xiao Muhan didn't even have time to catch his breath before he knocked on the door and shouted anxiously, "Uncle, uncle, I'm Xiao Muhan."
Xing Luoheng opened the door and saw Xiao Muhan sweating profusely. He couldn't help but laugh, "Xiao Muhan, what are you doing in such a hurry?"
Little Mu Han grabbed his uncle's hand and said anxiously, "Uncle, Daddy said you still have a lot of treasures that you haven't taken out yet. Let me see them."
Xing Luoheng pretended to be surprised, "Oh, your father is really good at talking. How can your uncle have any treasures?"
Little Mu Han didn't believe it, "Uncle is lying, but Daddy won't lie to me."
Xing Luoheng shook his head helplessly, "Okay, okay, even if I have it, I can't give it to you easily."
Xiao Muhan quickly assured, "Uncle, I will be obedient and I promise to take good care of the baby."
Xing Luoheng thought about it and said, "Okay, but you have to do something for your uncle first."
Xiao Muhan quickly asked, "What is it, uncle? I can definitely do it."
Xing Luoheng smiled and said, "Finish today's homework first, and then your uncle will consider giving you the baby."
Little Mu Han agreed without hesitation: "Okay, uncle, wait a minute, I'll do it right away." After that, he hurried back to do his homework.
