The city of cranes is brightly lit.

Chen Yi carried a guitar case on his back, a money bag in his arms, and his body flexibly shuttled between the roof and the balcony, and soon came to the bustling community, standing on a leafy branch, and looking at the third-floor window of a unit building in front of him without blinking.

The lights in the windows are still on.

Apparently, the mother was waiting for him to come back.

Because he said on the phone that he would be home today.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Yi calmed down the emotions surging in his heart, then opened the guitar case, took out the Sulu staff inside, and controlled the thin elemental particles around him to merge into the body of the staff.

"Hum. ”

Soon, the shaft of the staff lit up red. The smell of danger slowly spreads.

"Bang dang. ”

Throwing away the guitar case casually, Chen Yi grabbed his staff, jumped from the branch, and walked towards the door of his house step by step.

The real world is his home turf.

In this home arena, the combination of extraordinary strength and Sulu staff gives him a strong ability to fight and destroy. He became a "transcendent" in the true sense of the word, completely free from the physical limitations of mundane creatures.

Therefore, if those mages of Qingcang Academy are really hiding here and preparing to arrest him, then don't blame him for "killing him". Unless the opponent is equipped with a thermal weapon, he is invincible.

Chen Yi really doesn't want to kill people......

"Squeak. ”

Carrying a money bag and a pocket containing souvenirs in his left hand, and holding the Sulu Staff in his right hand and gently opening the unit door, as the sensor light turned on, Chen Yi carefully and carefully observed and listened for a long time, and then stepped on the stairs. The footsteps are steady and slow.

Ground floor.

Second floor.

3rd Floor ......

All the way unharmed, and there were no hidden "uninvited guests" jumping out.

"Am I overthinking, or are they waiting for me in the house?"

Stopped in front of the security door at home, Chen Yi stood for a long time, and the staff in his hand became more and more red.

Ordinary people are inviolable.

This is one of the iron laws of the transcendent realm of mankind.

His mother was unaware of what was going on with him, and it stands to reason that he shouldn't have been involved, at most he was being observed. Even if Qingcang Academy wants to "arrest" him, it should be outside, there is no need to hide in his house to carry out a surprise attack, involving his mother, an ordinary person.

So, the home should be safe.

At least in the real world, the home is safe.

At this thought, the red light of the staff in Chen Yi's hand gradually dissipated, raised his hand, and knocked on the door with the head of the staff.

"Knock knock. ”

After three sounds, only a rush of footsteps was heard, and the door was quickly pushed open, revealing Chen's mother's tired and expectant face.

"Mom. Chen Yi opened his mouth.

"Xiaoyi, why did you come back so late, which bus did you take?"

"Mom. Chen Yi suddenly opened his arms and hugged Chen's mother tightly: "I'm back." Finally back......"

It was only two weeks of separation, but in Chen Yi's consciousness, it was like a world away.

No one can understand the despair and helplessness that he has accumulated during this time.

An ordinary college student who has just graduated, was "thrown away" into an alien planet that is thousands of light-years away from the earth, with no professional field skills and no available survival tools......

Although he became an extremely special transcendent by chance, in the final analysis, he is still an ordinary person at his core. The tense nerves were already exhausted under the successive twists and turns and pressure.

At this time, when I saw my mother's face, the hard shell that was holding on suddenly collapsed.

It's home.

There's a mom here.

Peace of mind......

……

Chen's mother, who was hugged by Chen Yi, was a little overwhelmed, stiffened for a moment, and raised her hand to stroke her son's head: "Xiaoyi, what's wrong with you?"

“…… Not much. Chen Yi clenched his teeth and held back the outburst of emotions in his chest: "I just miss you." ”

"Don't you come back soon?"

"Hmm. ”

After hugging for a while, the emotional peak passed, Chen Yi's embarrassed old face turned red, and he quickly let go of his arms and shook the things he was carrying in his left hand: "Mom, what do you see I bought you?"

"What did you buy? Chen's mother also pinched the corner of her clothes a little uncomfortably: "Where have you been for the past half a month?

"Have you eaten?"

"Yes. Mom gives you hot heat. Don't change the subject, explain well, what are you doing?"

"You've got to let me eat first, right?" Putting down the money bag and the cloth bag containing the souvenirs, Chen Yi inserted the Sulu staff into the belt of his trousers, and followed Chen's mother into the kitchen: "Red stewed meat......!"

"If you don't come back, the meat will rot. ”

"The rotten red stewed meat is, the better it tastes. ”

"Don't take chopsticks!

"Gotcha!"

"What are you doing with that stick? ”

"The antiques I picked up, they are not dirty. ”

After washing her hands and sitting at the dining table, Chen's mother served the red stewed meat, served the rice, looked Chen Yi up and down, and frowned: "Why did you lose weight like this?"

"I didn't eat my mother's food, and I was anorexic. Chen Yi picked up the chopsticks and grabbed a piece of meat, threw it into his mouth and chewed it: "Ang! It's still that taste! It's delicious." ”

"You ......" Chen's mother narrowed her eyes, and suddenly reached out and touched Chen Yi's cheek: "Your face is injured!"

"Huh?" Chen Yi was stunned for a moment, and then reacted that it was the little snake head that caused the wound with a dagger, and hurriedly blocked Chen's mother's hand, and said nonchalantly: "It was scraped open by wire, it's okay, it's all right." ”

"There are so many on the neck!" Chen's mother's tears suddenly flowed: "Xiaoyi...... What the hell are you doing?"

The smile on Chen Yi's face slowly retracted, put down his chopsticks, sorted out the words that had been prepared in his mind, and said in a low voice: "Mom." I said don't be angry. ”

"Bang!"

Mother Chen clenched her fists, slammed it on the dining table, and said in a choked voice: "You have ruined yourself like this, can your mother not be angry? How many times have you told you? You don't need to raise money for your mother! In case you encounter any danger...... I ......"

"There will be no danger. Chen Yiyi grabbed Chen's mother's hand and said seriously: "There will be no more in the future." Everything is fine. Mom, our family is not short of money. ”

"Are you ......" Chen's mother's eyes widened, trying to put on a stern and angry expression, but because of her failing heart, her whole body was weak, and she looked very funny: "Are you doing something illegal?!"

"No, I don't have such a lack of heart. Chen Yi picked up the chopsticks again, put a piece of meat in his mouth, and said while chewing: "I went to Africa to work." ”

"Non... Africa?" Chen's mother was stunned.

"Yes. Chen Yi nodded, pointed to the cloth pocket on the floor of the foyer, took out his new mobile phone, looked at the photos on the screen for his mother, and said, "That's the African souvenir I bought for you." Look, these are Africa, and there are photos of me and foreigners. ”

"That's... And what about you?"

"Injuries sustained while repairing the mine. ”

"You're mining?"

"Well, diamond mines. There are a lot of diamonds in Africa, and there is a lot of money. ”

"How dangerous are miners, you... You... Why don't you discuss it with your mother?" Chen's mother's tears flowed again.

"If I discuss it with you, can I still go?" Chen Yi deliberately showed a smug smile, pointed to the money bag next to the cloth pocket, and continued to talk nonsense: "Thanks to me for going, I helped the boss repair a big mine, and the boss directly rewarded me with a lot of money." It's more than enough to treat you. ”

Hearing this, Chen's mother immediately got up and was about to look at the black money bag, but was pulled by Chen Yi.

"Mom, there's too much money, and you have a bad heart, so don't look at it. ”

Chen's mother stomped her feet: "Chen Yi, you said that those who deceived children are okay, my mother has watched you grow up since childhood, can't you hear you tell the truth and lies?"

Chen Yi knew that his mother was cheating him, laughed a few times, and picked up a piece of red stewed meat: "Mom, I didn't lie to you, I definitely won't do anything illegal, you know me." Money, it can't be blown by the wind, it's all your son's spelling, it's easy to say, it's dangerous to say it's dangerous. Anyway, after taking this one, I'm not going to go again. ”

"You must have lied to me. ”

"I didn't. Chen Yi's tone was firm, and his eyes did not blink.

"Don't do anything illegal......

Chen Yi got up and helped his mother sit down: "Mom, if I do something wrong, I won't be able to come back." Now that I'm back, everything that happened before has passed......"

"You ......" Chen's mother trembled slightly.

"My son is desperately trying to earn this money, just to let you have a good operation, live, and stay with me for more than ten years. This is your son's greatest wish, otherwise you are sorry for me, this money, I would rather burn it. ”

"......" Chen's mother was silent for a long time, covered her mouth with her right hand, choked in her throat, and couldn't help crying: "Mom dragged you down...... Sorry ......"

"Mom, how tired I am of you......"

Chen Yi pursed his lips and gently held his mother in his arms......
