"Alright, you can step aside." The empress said lightly, but there was no doubt about her will in her words.

Ma Liang's lips opened, and he stopped talking, and finally could only shake his head and leave.

"Huh~" When Ma Liang left, the empress opened her eyes, there seemed to be stars in her eyes, and her gaze pierced the sky through the heavy palace.

After a long time, she said faintly: "Time, what I lack is time......"

As long as she has enough time, she has the confidence to face any problem, but unfortunately...... The opponent will not give her.

……

"Ah, Boss, this is delicious, let's go in and eat some." You Xiaoyou suddenly stopped, staring at the small flavor shop next to him that exuded a strong smell of barbecue. She swallowed wildly, and couldn't help but pull the ancient three links and wanted to go to the shop.

"Hey, you're enough, from last night until noon today, have you counted how many snack bars you went to and how many things you ate?" Gu Santong shook off the hand she was holding and asked loudly.

"It's not much, it only cost a high-grade spirit stone in total!" You Xiaoyou looked at Gu Santong in surprise, with an expression that you were too fussed about.

The corners of Gu Santong's mouth twitched twice, and he gritted his teeth and said: "A high-grade spirit stone is equal to one hundred medium-grade spirit stones, which is equal to ten thousand lower-grade spirit stones, I have asked those shopkeepers, and their daily turnover is only eight hundred to one thousand low-grade spirit stones...... So, you got it. ”

"It's not me who eats alone, don't you and Da Tang eat too?" You Xiaoyou pursed his lips, looking innocent.

"......" Gu Santong suddenly turned around and left directly.

"Hey, Boss, where are you going?" You Xiaoyou hurriedly asked.

"I went to the palace for a big dinner, and I think the food of the palace will definitely not be worse than these snacks." The voice of the ancient three links came from afar.

You Xiaoyou was stunned, and immediately remembered the preferential treatment she had enjoyed in the palace before, and at that moment, she hurriedly chased after her, "Boss, wait for me!" ”

The two of them walked through the alley and along the moat in the direction of the Great Xia Imperial Palace, they had come here yesterday, but they had to delay for so long because a certain foodie was confused by a snack.

Of course, part of the reason is that the ancient three links themselves are greedy.

"Alas, for the sake of our friendship for many years, I will tell you the truth, if you Daxia and the Great Zhou Dynasty are enemies, then you are doomed to only one way."

"If you want to work against Da Zhou, it is impossible for our Daewoo Empire to accompany you, farewell."

Suddenly, a conversation came faintly from across the riverbank. Gu Santong and the two glanced curiously in that direction, and immediately, You Xiaoyou shouted in surprise: "I'll go, that uncle looks a bit like Ma Liang, could it be Ma Liang's father." ”

These two goods obviously didn't want to lower the volume, or transmit the sound, she just said it so loudly, not worried about what trouble would be after being heard.

Not surprisingly, this voice was heard by Ma Liang on the other side of the river. Ma Hao is also a monk in the middle of the out-of-body realm, this kind of sound that is just separated by a river and is not disguised, if he can't hear it, then he really doesn't deserve to be a monk.

"This ......"

However, when Maleonn turned his head to look, he was stupid, and he even wondered if he had presbyopia, because he saw the two people who had disappeared for forty years.

He wiped his eyes to make sure he was not mistaken, and then, scanning them with his senses, found that the two were nothing, as if they were not there.

"Hey, uncle, it's very rude to scan others with your divine sense so blatantly." You Xiaoyou frowned and shouted through the moat.

This familiar voice, this familiar face, it was as if everything had gone back to forty years ago.

Ma Liang could no longer care about the friend who had drawn a clear line, and directly crossed the moat and came to the ancient three links. Under the close gaze, he couldn't help but burst into tears, his mouth moved, and he spit out two words, "Teacher......"

"Yo, it's really Ma Liang!" Gu Santong smiled, walked up, gave him a big hug, and patted him the back.

"Isn't it, you're really Maleonn? I think you're like Maleon's father. You Xiaoyou approached and took a closer look, "Well, you're getting a lot older." ”

"Ahem, don't talk if you can't speak, this is called maturity." After Gu Santong let go, he patted Ma Liang's shoulder again, quite emotional.

At this moment, Ma Liang is no longer the majestic appearance of a country, no longer the originator of cartoonists admired by thousands of people, and no longer a powerful monk of the out-of-body realm...... He was like going back to the past, he was still the same shy teenager, and said a little embarrassedly: "After all, after forty years, I have grown up." ”

"In fact, I have been very speechless about this world for forty years, especially when I see the old people." You Xiaoyou muttered.

"Teacher, Sister Xiaoyou, go to my house, I want to pick up the wind and wash the dust for you." Ma Liang happily invited, and at the same time, he had already taken the lead in leading the way, as for the guy on the other side of the moat, he had long forgotten about it.

You Xiaoyou shook his body, shook his head and said, "I'm not used to having an uncle call me sister, it will make me look old." ”

"Haha~" Gu Santong laughed, "Let's get used to it slowly, when we are strong enough, even if it is an old monster who has lived for tens of thousands of years, we have to call us seniors." ”

The three of them walked away with a smile and a smile, leaving only the middle-aged man on the other side of the moat, who looked at their distant backs with a gloomy face, and then flicked his sleeves and left angrily.

"Be proud, you won't be able to be proud for a few days anyway."

……

Maleonn's house, a pleasant back garden. There are elixir jade liquid, jade plate delicacies, and a high-grade spiritual meal from the medicinal dietitian was served to the table, and a pungent fragrance greeted the face, which instantly made the index fingers of the two Gu Santong move, and even the big orange couldn't wait to drill out.

The group was about to feast, but suddenly noticed a figure appearing in the garden at some point.

"Ah, Xiaobai!" You Xiaoyou raised his head, and immediately saw the peerless light blue figure not far away.

Compared with forty years ago, Dongfang Bai is now taller, more mature, and the majesty on her body has become more and more intense, even if she has restrained her aura, it is still terrifying.

Ma Liang trembled, quickly stood up, and welcomed with a little nervousness: "Ah, Your Majesty, Your Majesty can come to the Humble House, it really makes the Humble House shine......"

"Hmph~" Dongfang Bai looked unhappy, she came to the table by herself and took a seat.

You Xiaoyou and Gu Santong glanced at each other, then hurriedly moved their position to Dongfang Bai's side, and pretended to be relaxed and said: "Xiaobai, I haven't seen you for a long time, you are old......"

"Ahem~" Gu Santong hurriedly coughed.

"Ah, you've matured a lot and become prettier." You Xiaoyou quickly changed his words, "Uh, don't you stop talking, are you still angry?" Actually, you can't blame me for this, if you want to blame the system, I have only been on a mission with the boss for more than two months, but when I came back, I found that forty years had passed here! If you want to say wronged, I am still wronged......"

"Wait, you said you've only been there for more than two months?" Dongfang Bai's eyes lit up, "If the speed of time is reversed, how good it would be...... Can you tweak that? ”
