...
Ping'an Town, Zhuwei Lake.
The vast water area, pure and boundless like sea of mist.
From time to time, a large fish would leap out of the water, splashing waves.
Suddenly.
A "ship" in the distance was quickly sailing on the water, making two long water marks. The fish were frightened and scattered in all directions, like a chaotic dance of fish.
Upon closer inspection, it was not a ship, but a huge turtle. It was the Wang family's guardian spirit beast - the Primordial Water Spirit Tortoise.
It stuck out its long enormous turtle head, its limbs moving like oars, traveling at a high speed.
On the thick turtle shell, a boy and girl were sitting.
The girl looked about eight or nine years old, beautifully carved, with expressive eyes, resembling a little princess.
The boy was about four or five years old, quietly sitting on the turtle, clutching a large school bag in his arms, with a hint of worry in his eyes despite his young age.
