Chapter 38: The First Emperor

Until this moment, she suddenly realized that she was not alone, and there was someone by her side to accompany and help.

This feeling made the soft place in her heart feel a little more indescribable warmth and sweetness, and the barriers that she cared about before suddenly gradually let go, and it was a little irrelevant.

However, when it came to this topic, Su Wanmiao had a change in mentality, and suddenly she was not as restrained as before, but asked curiously and softly, "That...... The river god before, is it really the river god? ”

She often does business with people, and naturally she has heard a lot of gods and ghosts, some of them burn incense and worship the Buddha and fall into the devil's fear, and some of them go bankrupt for the sake of the imperial examination high school to ask for the blessing of the gods and Buddhas, and some businessmen will ask for some ghosts from small countries in the East to bless their business prosperity.

Among them, there are many who are purely deceived when they are not effective, and I don't know if it is luck or real day and night prayer that has an effect.

It's just that when those ghostly things suddenly and really appeared in front of her, she was still a little excited and uneasy.

"Of course not." Du Bai shook his head and said.

After two days of speculation, he can probably determine that the other party is definitely not a so-called river god, and it is more likely that a monster with a high Taoism is doing evil.

"How can the gods slaughter their own believers?" "It's just a demon," he explained. ”

"What about you?" Su Wanmiao's beautiful eyes looked directly at him, and asked cautiously, but as soon as the words were spoken, she regretted a little, and subconsciously added, "I don't doubt you...... Just ......"

She was a little scared of getting the worst answer.

"Me?" Du Bai laughed dumbly, it turned out that she was worried about this, and suddenly wanted to tease her, so she pretended to laugh evilly, "Then if I tell you that I am a big monster and like to eat people the most, are you afraid?" ”

"I ......" Su Wanmiao's tone froze, then she lowered her head slightly, her little hand tightly pinched her sleeve, "I believe in you!" ”

Hearing this, Du Bai glanced at her, and suddenly smiled: "Thank you for your trust." It's a pity that Xiaosheng is not talented, just a scholar, at most he can only do a little pen and ink work, and subduing demons and eliminating demons is just a way. ”

Su Wanmiao suddenly raised her eyes to look at him, her eyes were full of joy and resentment, obviously she had never felt that being called a lady was such a joyful thing before, until this moment.

The two talked a lot, and I don't know when the atmosphere in the carriage was no longer as awkward as before, but there was some harmony and joy that seemed to be absent.

After all, there was no more training along the way, and it was safe and sound, and it was already the evening of the next day when the convoy reached the destination Yongxu Village.

The ancestral home of the Su family is also here.

Under the red glow on the horizon, you can see in the distance that there is a small village at the foot of the mountain that is rising with cooking smoke, by the mountains and rivers, there are hunters from the mountains and forests carrying prey and returning, there are also fishermen happily returning home with river fish, people come and go, quite lively.

This is what a village should look like, not as unpopular as the previous Suwon Village!

In the carriage alone, Du Bai looked at the green mountains and green waters around him, looked at the blue sky, breathed the air that was so fresh that it seemed to have the fragrance of green leaves, and had to sigh that this is indeed a good place for retirement.

It's no wonder that Old Lady Su chose to return here after letting go of everything. There is no conflict between power and wealth, only the cleanest and purest in the world.

If you stay here for a while, you will be able to live a few more years.

According to what he knew, this was also the forefront of the Holy Dynasty's defeat of the enemy army to expand its territory, and it was at that time that the ancestors of the Su family seized the opportunity to sell and trade, and accumulated the first pot of gold that the Su family began to rise from hungry and cold farmers.

Speaking of which, he remembered the famous Ming Emperor in history, that is, the former emperor who more than doubled the territory of the Holy Dynasty.

History records that the other side was extremely intelligent, able to write at the age of two, write articles at the age of five, and know how to arrange the army at the age of seven, and invented the sand table exercise, which greatly improved the army's combat command ability......

And not only that, after the other party ascended the throne, he also secretly set up a Tiangong Battalion, specializing in the development of various inventions, including papermaking, printing, and even gunpowder......

If not, how could they defeat their already powerful neighbors in one fell swoop? It's all about technology!

It's just that such a move may only be very smart in the eyes of people in this world, but in Du Bai's eyes, it is a proper template for a traverser!

And if it's really a traverser, then the other party must be a standard science and engineering man, and it's the kind that has no plug-in but is conscientious. Because the other party has been engaged in scientific and technological inventions all his life to strengthen the country, but he has not left any poetry and songs.

just thought that the other party had been dead for hundreds of years, and I could only secretly regret that I couldn't meet this "time-traveler senior".

Thinking wildly in his head, his eyes inadvertently caught a glimpse of a carriage behind him, the lively Ying'er was opening the curtain, looking at this emerald green world excitedly, and although Su Wanmiao behind him was not so excited, she also had a shallow smile on the corner of her mouth, as if looking at the scenery outside the window with nostalgia.

When she was not in the same room with him, her time-honored maturity was revealed, like a perfect barrier to protect her.

Until she looked over here and looked at Du Bai for a moment, the barrier was self-defeating. Her white face turned slightly red, and she subconsciously avoided her gaze.

Du Bai withdrew his gaze and didn't look any more. Wanmiao's gentle temperament, although it is like a smooth glass shield when facing outsiders, no one can break through the seemingly thin barrier to see through her heart. However, in front of him, it was like a soft kitten, waiting for his love.

This made him, who had no experience in love, a little at a loss where to start.

If he is too strong, it looks like he is deliberately bullying her.

Du Bai had a headache, glanced at the distance and emptied his mind for a while, and suddenly smiled: "It's ridiculous to say, the two of them are already husband and wife, but they are playing some little ambiguous ...... like first love upside down."

In the process of returning to their hometown, the convoy happened to meet a few villagers who were returning home together, and the other party was a little vigilant at first, but after learning that the person who came was the Su family's convoy, he immediately let down his guard and became affectionate. After all, it is precisely because of the help of the Su family that their village's life has not been so poor in the past few years, and sometimes, even what the village chief says is not as good as that of Old Man Su.
