Chapter 157 rolled his eyes
Zhou Huaide wanted to pull Zhou Hanzhang up to take a closer look, but Zhou Hanzhang comforted him, "Father, don't worry, there shouldn't be any major problems."
"No, we didn't feel anything when we put our hands on it, so how come there was a suction force after Zhang'er put her hands on it?"
Zhou Huaide was completely baffled. "And you said something rushed into your body. Can you describe what it was in more detail? Is it harmful to you?"
"Father, don't worry. Whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, I've already touched that star bead, and you've all had contact with it before without any such incident. I don't think it's just targeting me, right?"
Zhou Hanzhang thought about the characteristics of radiation and realized that it didn't seem to target any one person specifically.
Since the emperor and her father have both been in contact and seem to be doing well, she shouldn't have any major problems, right?
However, some radiation symptoms are not immediately apparent, and she has not yet experienced the side effects of exposure to meteorite radiation that caused a series of symptoms, such as headaches, insomnia, and fatigue.
She remembered that most meteorites' radiation would not have a noticeable effect on the human body. According to the emperor, these meteorites had fallen many years ago, and the Great Zhou Dynasty had always regarded them as the guardian stars of the country.
I have met many rulers, and I have never heard of any of them dying young or suddenly.
Radiation isn't alive; it doesn't discriminate and target different people.
Why was it only her hand that generated suction just now?
"Uncle, Father, you both put your hands on the Star Bead. Did you feel the suction force on it?"
"No, we all put it on ourselves. We didn't feel anything special, except it was so slippery that I had to use a little force," Zhou Huaide said.
The emperor continued, "I did not feel any suction force either."
"That's strange. When I first put it on, the star bead was attracted like a magnet. At first, the attraction wasn't very strong, so I didn't even notice it."
Actually, I felt a slight electric current enter my body as soon as I placed it on, but my attention was focused on my hand, so I didn't notice it.
When I tried to remove my hand, I found that I couldn't, no matter how hard I tried. At that time, the electric current entering my body seemed to be more noticeable than before, but it was still very weak.
"But after a while, I was able to take it off. Uncle Huang knows that when you were holding me, did you feel that slight electric current?" Zhou Hanzhang said, glancing at the emperor.
"Electric current, that's a good description. But when I grabbed you, I didn't feel anything unusual. The only problem is that I couldn't pull you away."
The emperor felt a chill run down his spine when he recalled the scene.
"But we can put our hands on these star beads without any problems, so why is it that Zhang'er has a problem when he puts his hand on them?"
Zhou Huaide was very puzzled.
The emperor found it strange; he had been wondering if his younger brother had any ideas, but the man kept asking questions, and the emperor's gaze turned impatient.
"Would I have known I could have sat with you?"
"No, I just don't know. What if something happens to Zhang'er? How am I supposed to explain this to Huijun when I get back?"
"Huijun! Huijun! Is Huijun all you can think about all day long?"
"if not?"
The emperor took a deep breath and barely managed to resist the urge to pour the tea in his hand onto his face.
Looking at the emperor's expression, Zhou Huaide suddenly had a flash of inspiration and understood his impatience.
"Do you think it might be because Zhang'er is a girl? For generations, it has been emperors who have touched these star beads, and it seems that no woman in the royal family has ever touched them, right?"
The emperor thought about it and realized that it was indeed true.
"Zhang'er, when you touched the star bead, besides what I just mentioned, did you notice anything else unusual?"
Zhou Hanzhang shook his head. "No, that's all."
"Brother, what are you saying? These strange occurrences are already frightening enough. What other strange occurrences are there?"
"Can you shut up?" The emperor was about to lose his temper.
"We don't know why this is happening, or whether it will affect our health. I'm thinking that tomorrow is the night of the full moon, so I'll drip my blood into the star bead and see what happens."
If we can resolve this issue smoothly, we'll return directly to the capital to ask the Imperial Advisor what exactly happened.
"That's all we can do for now."
After finishing their business, Zhou Hanzhang thought that Liu Niang might still be wandering around the stone mountain, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried. "Uncle, Father, my master risked his life to come to this stone mountain to help me find you."
The rocky mountain is eerie and fraught with danger. I'm worried something might have happened to her, and I want to go out and look for her.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Huaide immediately objected, "You know that the Stone Mountain is strange and unpredictable, full of dangers. How dare you go out again? Even your imperial uncle and I have to be careful every step we take when we come to this Stone Mountain."
Even so, we've overcome countless dangers to get here. Now that you've finally arrived, you want to go out and look for people again? I won't agree!
Zhou Hanzhang looked at the emperor pleadingly, "Uncle Emperor."
"You see I'm useless. This time I agree with your father, but I don't agree with you going out to find someone right now."
Putting aside the dangers of Shishan, you yourself said that many people outside are looking for us. Do you think those people from Yunmeng Kingdom don't know that you are a member of the royal family?
Have you thought about what would happen if they caught you? We can't take that risk; let's wait until tomorrow.
The emperor made the final decision.
Zhou Hanzhang wanted to speak, but seeing the emperor's expression, he knew it was impossible to change their minds, and sighed inwardly.
The emperor could tell what was on her mind just by looking at her downcast expression.
"Don't blame us for being heartless. We don't know your Master Youying. Even if we did, your safety would be our top priority."
It was wrong of you to come out here looking for us so rashly. Now that we've finally gotten here, we can't let you go out again on your own."
"I see."
Zhou Hanzhang felt somewhat down, and could only hope that tomorrow would come soon so he could finish his business quickly and go out to find Liu Niang as soon as possible.
"Alright, we've finished talking. Let's have our meal first," Zhou Huaide said to the two of them.
After saying that, he took out a few dry biscuits from the cabinet next to him and put them on the table. "The person who cooks for us is injured now, so we can only rely on ourselves. These dry biscuits will fill us up, so eat them first."
The emperor and Zhou Hanzhang thought he would bring out something good, and even suggested having a meal together.
Upon seeing these dry biscuits, they couldn't help but roll their eyes.
