That day the little divine stone had wanted to show off its abilities by healing her injury, but it used up all its powers to heal her wound. Thus, it was unable maintain its spiritual form and had disappeared for many days. Xiaocao bathed the rainbow stone in spring water every day, but she still didn't see the appearance of the divine stone's spiritual form.

　　It's so worrisome! However, after the little divine stone exhibited its mystical powers, Yu Xiaocao no longer doubted it. Xiaocao would boil the spring water, that the stone bathed in, for her family to drink. It does seem rather effective so far, at least for herself. Her health wasn't as shabby as when she had just transmigrated here.

　　"He's awake! He woke up!" Xiaolian's voice interrupted her thoughts.

　　She turned towards the sound. The young man's thick eyelashes lightly fluttered before he slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were dazzling and captivating, and seemed to be as deep as the sea and as bright as the stars.

　　"Were you…the ones who rescued me?" The young man's voice was very clear, with a slight sense of indifference and coldness. It was like the spring water from an ancient pond found inside a deep mountain, exceptionally cool.

　　Yu Xiaocao smiled faintly and softly said, "We were collecting seafood by the sea when we suddenly noticed you. My father is an excellent swimmer, so he went to save you. You… It's great that you're alright!"

　　Zhu Junyang's indifferent gaze focused on the young girl in front of him, who looked around five or six years old. (Author note: I'm eight years old! Eight years old!!) Her skin was even lighter and more flawless than the winter snow, while her hair looked slightly withered and yellow. Her lips were delicate and soft, like light pink-colored petals.

　　She was clearly just a thin and weak girl from a poor peasant's family. However, she gave him a calm and gentle feeling, like a spring breeze. This feeling was very different from those n.o.ble ladies, who were like mad dogs after a bone whenever they saw him. They obviously wanted to jump on him, but still acted disgustingly pretentious. At least, this peasant girl wasn't annoying!

　　"Thank you very much! Did you…happen to see anyone else?" Zhu Junyang deeply regretted not listening to the experienced captain's advice and chose a day with such weather for testing out the new s.h.i.+ps. As a result,…

　　However, this also proved that this new batch of vessels from the s.h.i.+pyard were unsuitable for ocean voyages. It couldn't even withstand such a small storm. How could it travel to the foreign lands that royal uncle had mentioned?

　　"Other people? Do they count?" Yu Hai asked, with amazement and admiration, as he pointed towards a st.u.r.dy two-decker s.h.i.+p in the distance.

　　That was definitely a s.h.i.+p for ocean voyages! It was multiple times bigger than their family's new fis.h.i.+ng s.h.i.+p. If he could also have such a… Ahem, he needed to stop daydreaming!
