1091 Household chores
a prestigious affair Isn't the Shen family just her left now"Old Mrs. Shen frowned slightly, saying with a hint of helplessness: "Tell her to keep a low profile, but it's no use. Her personality has b...The yellow-skinned creature jumped into the yard on that side, and in the process of jumping, it disintegrated. I saw a black shadow suddenly reflected on the summoning banner, and in the blink of an eye, it disappeared from the yard.
And that fake monk went tumbling down from the wall with a thud, he probably didn't land lightly.
The neighbor must have gone to fetch a wizard last night, because as soon as he came in, he said, "There are demons plaguing your home…"
He babbled on and on, leaving the owner completely bewildered.
If you don't understand, then that's fine. Otherwise, how would you make money out of half-truths and deceit
I looked at Mu Wanchen: "Wanchen, do you want to go take a look That old lady doesn't know what she's selling."
"You're talking about your grandmother The one who escaped from the monastery"
I nodded. Yes, the one who looked like a withered corpse, an old woman.
Last time I left, he was fighting with the dragon snake spirit that came searching. He wasn't acting like an old woman at all! He fought with a fierce determination to kill, and chased away the snake spirit.
Mu Wanchen nodded. "Just right, didn't you say the pouch was taken Might as well go look for it. If she escaped from the Dharma sect, she shouldn't dare to mess with me."
But how are we going to get there When dawn broke, the middle-aged man got up after I told him about what happened last night and was furious.
"Damn it! Blood book in the yard Is my business going to be shut down! The whole yard smells like that damn incense! This fake monk! He's worse than not having one at all!" He waved his mop around, scrubbing the ground where the name was written, while cursing non-stop.
"Sorry, mister, I have no idea how this thing came to find me..." I apologized.
The uncle lowered his voice, "No, no, little beauty, it's not your fault, this wasn't intentional... So, if you guys are going, let Long ge know, and I'll arrange a car for you. Go quickly and come back quickly."
Car, I tilted my head and thought for a moment. I could drive there myself. If we encounter a check, I'll have Mu Wanchen cast a barrier to hide us temporarily.
The uncle was very efficient. He brought a jeep, and the trunk had a box of water, as well as instant hot pot and some biscuits.
"Sigh~ Now that it's a peaceful society, you don't have to worry about food and clothing wherever you go. I've prepared some things for you just in case. If you want to eat something on the way, just grab some hot food. Go quickly and return quickly." The old man instructed.
"No problem, thanks, uncle." I quickly adjusted the navigation.
The Yellow-skinned messenger left behind a place name pointing to a location over 800 miles northeast. At a speed of eighty miles per hour, it would take a day to get there.
However, this village is definitely on the outskirts of some ghost village barrier. There must be a way further in.
Mu Wanchen didn't know this place, and there was a barrier here. He couldn't open the formation either. We walked through it once, so next time if we "come again" it will be convenient.
"Come on, Great Witch King, your driver is ready." I buckled up and smiled at Mu Wanchen sitting in the co-pilot seat.
"......You worked hard." Mu Wanchen looked at the car somewhat helplessly. He couldn't drive.
"It's not that I don't work hard, it's just that my driving skills aren't great…" The cars in my hands seem to be lightly disfigured or seriously disabled.
After driving out of the small town, I quickly got on the highway according to the navigation.
The current transportation and social environment are truly stable and convenient. Mu Wanchen looked out the window at the scenery flying by, seeming to be deep in thought.
"Maybe you could learn to drive later. It's okay if you don't have a license, just use mine! We can take turns driving on road trips! All we need is a rooftop tent, right With you around, I wouldn't be afraid of ghosts or robbers." I smiled to lighten the mood.
Mu Wanchen turned his head and smiled faintly at me, " ... Well, as long as you like it, I'm happy to accompany you."
"I don't know what this old woman is trying to do… She used a corpse to replace the prince back then, switching herself into someone outside the legal system. Her companions thought she was dead, so no one hunted her down."
“Then marry a rich farmer, after a few years of good life, she was forced to flee with her family because of the war of invaders. When living in seclusion on the southern border, she heard that she met a wounded Dragon King who escaped from the Famen Temple. At that time, she remained calm and only offered help. Later, the Dragon King became malicious and seemed to have done something to her son... forming a deep grudge. After a battle, the Dragon King fled far away, and she continued to hide her identity in the country to avoid the war.”
“Right now, I have no idea what’s going on. It seems like Mrs. Xue only has one granddaughter, and then Mrs. Xue had me and my sister… I suspect she married my father just to continue the family line. Anyway, I don't feel any love or family affection at all.” I said angrily.
Mu Wanchen replied faintly, "It's always a good thing to have relatives...Even if there are grudges that can't be resolved, it's better than everything being meaningless."
I didn't think it was that great. Ms. Xue focused on the tomb of the King of Wuzhuang City and even injured Sihuang.
I have no remorse for my actions because I never considered her family.
Someone who ignores me and my sister, rarely even meeting us, it's really difficult to consider her family.
We set off early in the morning, and by the time we reached our destination, it was already dark.
There were lights flickering in the bends of the road ahead, it must be that small village we're looking for.
Now villages along the highways mostly have farm stays or guesthouses.
The inn was so dilapidated it was indescribable. It cost only 30 yuan a night, but you had to pay in advance. The walls were peeling, the glass windows were dusty and grimy, and there was even a thin layer of dust on the windowsill outside.
And the room had nothing but a double bed and a ceiling fan.
That yellow-skinned person didn't show up! Couldn't we have driven too fast, and it's still on its way back
“To be honest, I’d rather sleep in my car.”
"Sleeping on the car you're always curled up, tomorrow morning you'll wake up with a sore back and aching waist." Mu Wanchen held me in his lap: "You can sleep on me."
"Pfft…" I've been roughing it in the mountains and forests for a while now. I wouldn't complain about having a roof over my head and a bed to sleep on!
This room is on the first floor, and we can see the cars parked outside our window. We chose this room because we were worried about someone breaking into or stealing a car during the night.
Rural areas tend to have an early bedtime because houses are scattered and there aren't many entertainment activities. Even young people have gone to the city for work.
In the middle of the night, I heard movement outside my window. I climbed up from Mu Wanchen's arms and, borrowing the light from the inn's lanterns in the courtyard, I could see two paws pressed against the glass. I turned on my phone flashlight to take a look, and the paws immediately retracted.
"Hey hey, something seems to be on our car..." I crouched under the windowsill squinting out.
The glass was too old, and it was hard to see through. Mu Wanchen formed a barrier to shield me, and we quietly opened the door together.
As I got to the edge of the courtyard, I could see clearly!
Several little yellow critters are jumping happily on the bottom of our car, the hood, and the roof!
"Hey, you little brats! What do you think you're doing!"
As soon as the barrier was lifted, we suddenly appeared in front of the car. The few yellow-skinned creatures were so startled that they froze, raising their front paws and squatting on the car, staring blankly at us.
I, I… if it weren't for the fact that you all look so cute and adorable, I would have beaten you up! gave it to Jiang Qiyun. Anyway, these two little fellows are particularly good at pleasing their father, one sitting on each side of his legs, looking expectantly at him and tugging at his clothes fo...
