Chapter 1084: Wengfalusi 3.1 (130)

Use the spindle to connect everyone.

Mother's voice echoed in her ears: "On that huge ship, there will be a formidable captain. She is cheerful and optimistic, bold yet meticulous, able to bring everyone together."

The little girl exclaimed excitedly: "Wow, that's amazing! Can I be that captain?"

"Of course you can. But my dear girl, you will find a more suitable candidate." Mother said, "I think that person should live in a splendid temple, which stands on a mountainside covered with golden fig trees. There is a noble girl there, extraordinarily wise but also delicate and sensitive."

"Just like... Mom?"

Mother smiled faintly: "Perhaps. But before finding the captain, the little boat still needs a navigating companion—who is she?"

"Hmm, let me think..." The girl had a flash of inspiration, happily raising her hand: "I know! It's—Tibao!"

Tibao froze, staring in shock at the red-haired doll placed on the cabinet before her; the sound was crystal clear in her ears.

(Did I give this doll… the same name as myself?)

Tibao held her forehead, straining to dredge up past memories from her mind, but no matter how hard she tried, her childhood memories were completely blank.

(I don't remember at all… Is this a dream, or did it actually happen?)

Tibao continued exploring the room and soon came before a cabinet piled with stone slabs. She wiped the dust-covered slabs, but they bore no inscription.

(It's full, as if Mother left it for me. But the characters have been wiped away… Is it because I can't remember?)

As she walked, Tibao heard a sound coming from a box; she opened it to see a doll holding a sword locked inside.

(What's in its hand… a sword? Why……)

Mother's voice continued: "In the future, many brave warriors will board this ship. They are highly skilled in martial arts and fear no danger."

The little girl clenched her pink fists: "Hmm… I can also learn to fight, to protect everyone!"

"Silly child, you are the Saintess of Yanusabolisi. Fighting is not your duty; many will come to protect you."

"Alright, then where do they come from?"

"I think one warrior comes from a lovely village where reed grass grows abundantly, and another from a magnificent royal city. They each have their own worries, but are willing to lend their strength to the little ship's voyage."

"Then let Tian fight alongside them! That way, no one will be lost."

(Back then… how did I know the name "Tian"? Was it a coincidence, or……)

——

DC Universe.

"The village where reed grass grows abundantly—could that refer to…… Bai'e? And Wandi from the magnificent royal city—they both later joined Fire Pursuit Journey!"

Inside the Star Building editorial department, Luyisi stared in astonishment at the room within the skydome. If this scene had actually happened in the past and was not a dream, then Tibao's mother had indeed successfully foreseen the future a thousand years later.

……As for that "noble girl" she mentioned, it must be Aglaea.

In this small room, memories of Tibao's past are everywhere. As she continually uses her power, these memories have likely already faded away with time and the wear of her consciousness.

"Could there be other 'memories' here? About the black-clad swordsman and what happens next in Fire Pursuit Journey?"

Luyisi opened her phone's video function, intending to record this scene in the skydome—out of a journalist's sensitivity, she sensed that many remarkable events would unfold in this small room.

"It seems her mother is quite a formidable Saintess, truly able to receive guidance from the Titan." Kelake brought a cup of coffee to Luyisi's desk, "But at this point, the Gate of the Titan should still be alive, right? After Tibao merges with its fire seed, this prophetic-like ability will disappear."

Luyisi nodded: "The key lies in how much useful information we can dig from past memories for the present Fire Pursuit Journey; if her mother's prophecy could hint a little at what will happen next, that would greatly benefit the current situation."

"But the crux is whether her mother's prophecy can successfully discern the existence of Danheng and Xing." Kelake frowned, "... If her mother could foresee each companion of Fire Pursuit Journey, then she should also be able to foresee Danheng and the others. Otherwise, I'm still more inclined to think this is merely a dream……this mother‑child dialogue is just a manifestation of Tibao's subconscious."

"When sailing at sea, one must know astronomy above and geography below." Mother said.

The little girl made a troubled expression: "Hmm… Is learning only Janus's knowledge not enough?"

"Of course. The sea is not land; a moment's carelessness can lose direction. So, learning to recognize the traces of Aegle is very important."

"All right! Although my brain is already exceptionally smart, I will still strive!"

"Sekhmet will also favor earnest children. It will send forth knowledgeable scholars to serve as everyone's teachers, helping you achieve your ideals."

"I also want to be a teacher! No, I'm impressive, so I want to be a teacher of teachers!"

Mother smiled warmly: "Why not? However, if you want to teach and nurture, being so restless won't do."

"Then let Ting come! She's well‑behaved, surely she can be a good teacher."

Tibao listened to the voices of the past, lowering her head in sorrow.

(Mom and everyone used to praise my good memory……but now I can't even tell whether this is a dream or a memory.)

Tibao continued forward until she reached a small music box, where the voices from her memories surged forth once again.

"All right, Tilixibiesi, let everyone sit on this little music box and compose melodies for our songs."

"A… music box? What is that?"

"Good child, are you dazed? This is your invention."

"An invention… mine? What use does it have?"

"My dear Tibao… you're usually so smart, why do you look so clueless today?" Mother's voice was like a pair of warm hands, patiently guiding her, "If that's the case, let's see for ourselves… put a good companion on it and see what wonderful response we get."
