Chapter 141: Stealing the Divine Bead

Jiang Shanghua finally decided to take the risk.

When Mazu's small sampan disappeared into the vast sea, he quickly ran to Mazu's stone house. The stone house was very simply decorated, with only a stone table and two chairs, and a dressing mirror opposite.

There is a bottle of water and two tortoiseshell cups on the table.

Jiang Shanghua pushed the door open and went in. The bottle of water seemed to have a faint floral fragrance, the smell of jasmine. Without thinking, he took out a packet of powder from his arms and poured it into the water bottle. Then he shook it vigorously.

After doing this, he left the stone house. He returned to Xin'er, who had woken up but could not get up.

"Did Mazu save us?" Xin'er asked.

Jiang Shanghua nodded.

Xin'er said: "We should really thank Mazu, she saved us three times."

Jiang Shanghua nodded again, and then said after a while: "But she is unwilling to help us defeat the Meishan God."

Xin'er sighed and said, "There's nothing we can do about it. Let's get out of here."

Jiang Shanghua shook his head vigorously and said, "Your injury is not healed yet. Let's rest for one more day. It won't be too late for us to leave tomorrow."

His tenderness made Xin'er feel warm in her heart. She put her head close to Jiang Shanghua's arms.

***

In the evening, Mazu returned to the island and walked into her stone house.

Jiang Shanghua gently hugged Xin'er and hugged her the whole night. Xin'er felt that she was really the happiest woman. Although she felt that her body was still a little painful, she felt like a little bird in her heart, wanting to fly to the sky.

Waves of sea waves are like gently lapping at my body.

When Xin'er almost fell asleep, she was shaken awake by Jiang Shanghua.

Xin'er heard Jiang Shanghua say in a mysterious tone: "Xin'er, go to Mazu's house and bring back the Sea-Dinging Pearl."

Xin'er was in a daze but woke up when she heard this. Jiang Shanghua was looking at her and took out a red bead from his arms.

"Isn't this Mazu's Dinghai Pearl?" Xin'er and Jiang Shanghua had both seen the Dinghai Pearl once, so she said in surprise.

Jiang Shanghua shook his head and said: "This is a pearl that I spent a lot of effort to get, but it is not the Dinghai Divine Pearl. You go and exchange this bead for the Dinghai Divine Pearl."

Xin'er had completely woken up. She didn't expect Jiang Shanghua to be so bold, and Mazu was their savior after all. Stealing the Dinghai Divine Pearl in this way was beyond her expectation.

Jiang Shanghua saw Xin'er's mood and explained: "Mazu rarely uses the Dinghai Divine Pearl. If we borrow it and return it to her on the same day, she won't even notice. Are you just watching us lose to the Meishan God?"

The army was annihilated?"

Xin'er lowered her head and thought about it carefully, Jiang Shanghua's words were not unreasonable. Since Mazu was unwilling to directly participate in the eradication of the Meishan God, it was always possible to borrow a bead.

"Even if this matter is exposed and the Southern Emperor investigates it in the future, it will have nothing to do with Mazu." Jiang Shanghua continued to persuade.

Xin'er nodded slowly. She mustered up the courage to stand up and said, "I'll give it a try."

Jiang Shanghua said: "Well, don't worry, Mazu has gone to bed. The magic beads are probably in her arms, you can just change them back."

Xin'er took the red bead from Jiang Shanghua's hand, walked out of the stone house gently, and touched Mazu's stone house. Jiang Shanghua lay down behind the rocks and watched her go.

There was no other sound except the waves crashing on the shore. Xin'er touched the outside of Mazu's stone house and saw her through the crack of the door, sleeping in front of the stone table with her chin propped up.

Has she not slept yet?

Xin'er looked back and asked Jiang Shanghua. It was indeed dark and she couldn't see where Jiang Shanghua was. She had to wait patiently and watch Mazu through the crack in the door.

Mazu slept deeply. Although she only relied on the table, she slept motionless. From her even breathing, Xin'er guessed that she had indeed been asleep for a long time and deeply.

She slowly opened the door and tiptoed into the stone house. Mazu made no movement and was still asleep. There was half a glass of water in front of her that she had not yet finished.

She stretched out her trembling hands and groped in Mazu's arms, and sure enough she found a bead the size of an egg. When she took it out, it was almost the same as the red bead Jiang Shanghua gave her, only more transparent.

She didn't dare to waste time by looking closely, so she put the fake beads into Mazu's arms, and left the stone house without having time to close the door.

Jiang Shanghua had been waiting here anxiously. When he saw Xin'er running back, he asked eagerly: "Did you get it?"

Xin'er handed him the Dinghai Divine Pearl. He held the divine pearl in his hand and couldn't help feeling excited. The two returned to the stone house and looked at it carefully under the light. It was Xin'er who said: "Put it away quickly, don't let Mazu come and find it."

"

Jiang Shanghua showed a suspicious smile on his face and said: "Let's leave quickly and don't bother God Mazu anymore."

The two flew away from the island, not even daring to look back.
