Chapter 277: The Strange "Mom"
Zhenyuan Shangxian, who arrived in time, checked again and confirmed that Tianyou's condition had returned to normal before allowing him to leave. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć As for the new smelting furnace and follow-up technical problems, Zhenyuan Shangxian really wanted to do it immediately, but thinking of Tianyou's physical condition, he didn't dare to let Tianyou go to work with illness anymore.
Today's Tianyou can no longer be treated as an ordinary disciple, not because of Tianyou's talent, nor because Tianyou has become a registered disciple of Zhenyuan Shangxian, but because of Taiyi Sword.
From the moment he inherited the Taiyi Sword, it was destined that Tianyou would become one of the backbone forces of the Xianmen forces in the future against the Buddhist Sect, and the Xianmen and the Buddhist Sect had been dormant for so long since the catastrophic battle, in order to fight the next big war? Therefore, this plan can be said to be the condensation of thousands of years of hard work of all the people of the Xianmen forces, as long as it is related to the matter, it cannot be taken lightly.
Originally, the holder of the Taiyi Sword was the backbone of Zixiao Palace's combat power, and since his fall, the Taiyi Sword has been without users. Unable to find a successor before, Zixiao Palace could only tolerate this shortcoming, but now that Tianyou has appeared, there can be no more problems no matter what.
It is precisely because of this that today's Tianyou is so important in the minds of the top leaders of Zixiao Palace. Otherwise, no matter how good the talent is, Zixiao Palace will not take it too seriously. After all, the Shenzhou Continent is so big, and the talent is much better, but if you can inherit the Taiyi Sword for so many years, you will meet such a Tianyou, and if you miss this time, you may have to wait until when.
Of course, these things are known to the high-level of Zixiao Palace, but Tianyou does not understand. In order not to help the seedlings grow, although Zhenyuan Shangxian will provide him with some cultivation convenience, they will not treat him as an ancestor. The truth of strict teachers and high apprentices, Zixiao Palace, these people understand better than anyone else.
After checking his body, Zhenyuan Shangxian gave a few more simple instructions, and then asked Lu Meng to send him back to his residence. Tianyou resigned for a long time and did not resist Zhenyuan Shangxian, and finally accepted Lu Meng's escort.
Lu Meng's girl is also funny, supporting Tianyou all the way back, I don't know how sick I think he is. Tianyou wanted to get rid of her several times, but she was entangled by this girl again. She also laughed and joked about Tianyou. "I'm respecting my master's life, you are arrogant and expensive, how can you get it if you fall?"
"You girl, can't you toss others?"
"Oh, I called my sister before, why did I become a girl again when I went out?"
Lu Meng started early, and his cultivation was a little higher than Tianyou, so in front of the immortal elders, Tianyou could only obediently call his senior sister. However, the two are too familiar now, and in terms of actual age, Tianyou is even greater, so it always feels a little awkward to call her senior sister. Unexpectedly, this was also used by Lu Meng as a joke.
Tianyou smiled and threatened: "Someone, don't forget, the little fire fox she wants hasn't caught it yet." If Uncle Ben forgets this when he's in a bad mood, what can I do?"
Lu Meng clenched his little fists and argued: "You are a debtor who has paid off the cow?"
Tianyou tilted his neck, "Yes, I'm a cow, what can you do to me, right? ā
"You...... Okay, senior sister, I don't care about you a lot. Lu Meng said and stood on tiptoe to pat Tianyou's head, but Tianyou avoided him, so the two began to chase and run one by one.
There was a teleportation array, and there was not much actual way to go, and after a while, the two of them arrived at the hut where Tianyou lived. As soon as he entered the inner courtyard of the dormitory area, he saw two maidservants standing at the door of his small courtyard, and Tianyou vaguely remembered that this was the maid beside Ji Yao, who she brought from the state of Chu. Although their status in Zixiao Palace is a miscellaneous servant, their cultivation is actually not low, at least higher than that of most disciples. In addition, she is Ji Yao's maid, so her status cannot be regarded as a simple handyman.
Lu Meng, who was originally fighting, also quieted down when she saw the two maids, although she was not much dared to take care of her identity problem, so she was usually more lively than ordinary disciples, but she was not a person who didn't know how to measure, at least she was still relatively well-behaved in front of the immortal elders.
"Brother Tianyou, you're back. Seeing Tianyou and Lu Meng approaching, the two maids immediately felt slightly blessed.
Tianyou nodded and gestured with his eyes: "Is the Biyou Fairy here?"
A maid on the left immediately replied: "The fairy has just arrived, Senior Brother Tianyou should go in quickly." ā
"Oh. Tianyou raised his feet and was about to go inside, but was dragged by Lu Meng. Just like the students in the school don't like to run into the teacher when they have nothing to do, Lu Meng didn't want to go in to see Ji Yao, anyway, the person had already been delivered, so she simply said goodbye to Tianyou outside the door and left directly.
After saying goodbye to Lu Meng, Tianyou turned around again and prepared to enter the house, but as soon as he raised his feet, he heard a faint noise from the house, which sounded as if something had fallen, and there was also the sound of a copper basin falling to the ground.
Before Tianyou could figure out what was going on, he heard Ji Yao shouting in the house: "You don't know what to do, see I accepted you." ā
Before the words fell, Tianyou suddenly found that there was a strong gathering of spiritual power in the house, followed by a blue-white beam of light suddenly flew out from the side of the house, and the upper part of the wall in front of it was lifted off together with the roof.
Before Tianyou could react to what was going on inside, he saw that the light and shadow on the big hole that had just been blown open dimmed, and a red and black figure rushed out of the house, flashing in front of him and soaring into the sky.
"Mocking Wind?" Although I don't know why the color is wrong, the appearance of Mocking Wind is very recognizable, and besides, if you can come out of his house, you don't think about it except Mocking Wind. However, before Tianyou could figure out what was going on, there was a black shadow flashing in the big hole in the wall, and then he saw Ji Yao driving a flying sword straight into the sky, chasing the mocking wind and going.
"Biyou Fairy!"
Tianyou has been completely blinded, I don't know what happened just now, I did it for Mao's own mother and his demon pet.
Tianyou was still in a daze, and two more people ran out of the room, and it was Ji Yaode's other two maids. Luckily, they still know how to walk through the door. However, the appearance of these two people was obviously deserted, and the moment they ran out of the gate, they heard a click, and the house collapsed directly towards the middle.
"it!"
After a cloud of smoke in the sky, the disciples of the original outer courtyard poured into the inner courtyard one after another, and even the brothers near the inner courtyard ran over to see what was happening. As a result, after waiting for a long time, I saw a person with an ugly pig-face mask on his face stroking two beauties one by one and walking out, and then took a closer look at the two beauties behind this person, each stretching out a hand to put on his shoulder.
Of course, these four women are Ji Yao's maids. After the house fell, the smoke and dust spread too fast, even the master didn't have time to dodge, and after being shrouded in an instant, he turned a little, but fortunately, Tianyou had a lot of messy things, and this homemade gas mask came in handy again.
None of the four were injured, but they were blinded by the smoke and dust and couldn't recognize the direction, and after Tianyou took them out, he didn't care about them anymore, and asked them to get some water to wash themselves, and he himself hurriedly looked up at the sky.
Fortunately, Ji Yao obviously retracted her strength, and used all the techniques of capture and capture, and did not kill anyone. Mocking Feng is not stupid there, he has been going around in circles with Ji Yao, but he just doesn't get close to her.
Ji Yao's combat power is not weak, but now that he can't be a killer, he really can't do anything about the extremely flexible mockery for a while.
Although Tianyou was a little relieved to see that Mock Wind was fine, he always had to ask about this matter clearly. Putting his finger in his mouth and whistling into the air, Mock Wind immediately noticed. After turning his head to take a look, he went around in a circle, avoided Ji Yao, and swooped down towards Tianyou's position on the ground.
Ji Yao hadn't noticed Tianyou below, but when she saw the mocking wind swooping, she followed his moving route before she found Tianyou, so she also stopped and slowly fell towards the ground.
"Biyou Fairy. After catching the mocking wind, Ji Yao also happened to land, and Tianyou politely gave a salute. Although this mother is not very reliable, she demolished her house as soon as she came, but even if there is no such relationship, Tianyou should be respectful to her as a Biyou fairy.
Ji Yao also noticed the fallen house behind her at this time, her expression distorted and returned to normal, and she was probably a little embarrassed in her heart. Of course, she is an immortal chief, and it is impossible for her to take the initiative to apologize, but she just gave a return gift, and then asked first without waiting for Tianyou to ask: "Where have you been these days? I heard that you haven't come back for several days." ā
"I ......"
"Come with me, we'll talk as we go. After Ji Yao finished speaking, she took the lead without waiting for Tianyou to agree, and Tianyou had no choice but to follow. However, Ji Yao didn't talk to him directly, but first called a maid over and explained a few words. Tianyou heard it, and she asked the maid to deal with the problem of the house. After all, he collapsed a hut in vain, so he had to say hello to the immortal chief in charge of this side. Ji Yao has a special identity, and she is more arrogant on weekdays, but she has not yet reached the point of lawlessness.
Walking out of the dormitory area with Tianyou, the two came directly to the edge of the cliff behind, and then walked on the lotus bridge. It's always a sparsely populated place, so it's a good place to talk.
"I'll apologize to you for what happened just now. There was no one around, but Ji Yao let go. "Actually, my mother knows that you haven't returned for many days, thinking that your demon pet has no one to take care of, so she came to give it some food, so as not to go out hungry and hurt people and cause trouble for you. This demon is a demon after all, and there is no humanity. I brought it food just now, but I didn't know that this guy not only didn't eat it, but also knocked over the food bowl. As a mother, I wanted to catch it and put it in a cage when I was angry, but I didn't know that it dared to resist and scratched my clothes. For my mother, I was angry and didn't stop it, so I broke your house. It's not intentional to be a mother. ā
"......" Tianyou opened his mouth, but found that he didn't know what to shout. He can't shout directly to his mother, after all, there is no emotion between the two, and this mother has an adopted son who is more pampered than her own son, God bless her to really treat her as a mother. However, now there was no one else around, and the maids were all following from a long distance, and it was very windy on the lotus bridge, and they could not be heard talking at all. If this is called Biyou Fairy or Ji Yao again, it will obviously be at high speed, Ji Yao He didn't treat her as a mother at all.
Tianyou didn't want to offend Ji Yao, but he really couldn't shout that mother, so he could only use "you" after struggling for a long time.
"You don't have to mind, the house isn't mine anyway, I'm just staying temporarily. Besides, I have everything on me, and at most I have lost a set of bedding and clothes, which is not worth a few dollars. ā
Since he had a worry-free bag, Tianyou likes to stuff his belongings into it and carry it with him, if it weren't for Lu Meng selling him this is a defective product, the space is not big enough, he can't wait to bring even the bedding and clothes together.
"Do you still refuse to recognize your mother?"
What a shrewd person Ji Yao is? I immediately heard Tianyou's resistance. Although that "you" is more cordial than "Ji Yao" or "Biyou Fairy", it still exposes Tianyou's thoughts.
Tianyou didn't answer immediately, and after thinking about it for a long time, he decided to tell the truth. It's not something in itself that needs to be kept secret, and there's no need to lie.
"I know you gave birth to me. But...... I've been living alone for sixteen years. In those times when I needed the most love, I spent it alone. Xiyan can occasionally give me some warmth, but as you know, she's been so busy dealing with the Night Temple, and most of the time she has to leave me alone in a nearby market town to divert her pursuers or investigate the situation at the Night Temple, and then go about her own errands. So I learned early on to do everything on my own. If I hadn't learned this, I probably wouldn't have survived now. ā
This is Tianyou's heartfelt words, although he deliberately concealed the fact that he crossed with an adult's soul, but other feelings were true.
Although he was different from ordinary children when he first crossed, he was a newcomer after all, everything around him was so unfamiliar, and what was worse was that the child's body was really too weak, even if he had extraordinary knowledge and experience, with the body of a child, he was still very tired.
In fact, he almost died several times before he was three years old. In the first few years, Xiyan didn't care about him as much as he did later, although Xiyan was still quite cold until the final separation, but the mind of the Tianyou adult felt that the later Xiyan was cold to him only verbally, and he actually cared about him very much in his heart. But it wasn't like that in the first few years, she really didn't care about Tianyou, that was really indifference.
If Tianyou hadn't traveled with the mind and memory of an adult, if he was really an ignorant naughty boy, I believe he would have died in the first three years.
Of course, Tianyou doesn't blame Xiyan. After all, strictly speaking, the two of them are completely unrelated, and Xiyan only brought him out because of Ji Yao, and for this reason, he was thrown all over the world by the Night God Temple. can think of taking the initiative to lead away the pursuers, and remember to come back and take Tianyou away before changing places, Tianyou already feels that Xiyan has done a good job. As for the later ...... That should be regarded as a long-term relationship. Of course, this affection is family affection, and there may be sympathy.
Anyway, as a passerby, Xiyan is already very good to him. Relatively speaking, Ji Yao is the most irresponsible person. Although she did have a hard time at the beginning, for fear that Tianyou would be killed, she reluctantly asked Xiyan to take him away. But as far as Tianyou is concerned, he really suffered those hardships, so there is no problem for him to say this now. Ji Yao really didn't fulfill any obligations.
Although Ji Yao was shrewd, what Tianyou said was indeed not a lie, so she didn't know how to explain it, so she could only fall silent.
Seeing that Ji Yao was embarrassed and didn't know how to pick up the stubble, Tianyou finally took the initiative to say: "Please give me some time, I need to adapt to the process, now, please allow me to call you Immortal Chang or you for the time being, so that I am more comfortable." ā
Ji Yao didn't object to this, just nodded vigorously. But she quickly thought of something else.
"By the way, Wei Niang came today to see you, and second, there are some things I want to explain to you. ā
"What?"
"Well, it's about your identity. Ji Yao said: "You also know, I am the princess of Chu, and the king of Chu is your father." And now that the king of Chu has no children under his knees, there are only two collateral lines on the throne who are eligible to inherit it. It is said that at this time, you should hurry back to inherit the throne, but you also know that the Night God Temple will not take the initiative to give up the unfinished task. Therefore, if you reveal your identity in the royal city, the Night God Temple will inevitably hear about it. ā
"So it's best not to disclose my identity for the time being, and it's safest to continue to be an ordinary disciple in Zixiao Palace in a low-key manner, right?"
Ji Yao nodded hurriedly. "Yes. Wei Niang would rather separate her flesh and blood back then, just to let you avoid the pursuit of the Night God Temple, and now if you go back, the pursuit will definitely follow you. So I plan not to disclose your identity for the time being, anyway, as long as the king is not ready to abdicate, you don't need to be exposed. As for political experience or something, I can teach you for my mother. You're so smart, you should learn quickly. ā
Tianyou felt a lot of doubts about Ji Yao's words, but he didn't know how to ask.
He will inherit the throne in the future, and he can't really hide for the rest of his life. In that case, what is the difference between early exposure and late exposure? It is good to say that he was too young to have the ability to protect himself, but now Tianyou is no longer the baby that needed to be held in his hands back then, and there is no need to hide it like this.
Besides, he will be the king in the future, not the head of the commissary. People have to take a special machinery driver's license to drive an excavator, how can it be possible when the king doesn't prepare anything in advance? Although the ministers are only the king's head, they are not wooden people. The king is on the throne, and it is easy to say that he issued a decree or something, but if the king suddenly hangs up one day, and Ji Yao suddenly parachutes such a prince down to inherit the throne, can the ministers be convinced?
Throughout the ages, which prince must not have had so many supporters in the court before he ascended the throne? Tianyou parachuted into the king like this, let alone the supporters, and the ministers didn't know him, so how could he preside over the court meeting?
Therefore, Ji Yao's statement is obviously very far-fetched. She didn't seem to want Tianyou to inherit the throne, even if these arrangements could ensure his safety now, when he ascended the throne and became the king of Chu, he would still be killed. Imagine a person who doesn't know any of his courtiers and doesn't have a credible confidant around him. It's no wonder that such a king can survive.
However, although it didn't feel right, Tianyou didn't know Ji Yao's thoughts. She only has one son of her own, does she still plan to do it herself if she doesn't let herself inherit the throne? There have been many queens in the Shenzhou Continent, but I haven't heard of the princess inheriting after the king abdicates.
Therefore, Tianyou couldn't find Ji Yao's motives, and he couldn't figure out why she arranged it like this.
However, even if he couldn't figure it out, Tianyou still nodded. First, he didn't want to conflict with Ji Yao, and second, he really didn't want to inherit the throne.
He didn't know anything about the state of Chu and suddenly ran away to become a king...... It's unreliable to think about. If King Qin asked him to take over the Qin State, Tianyou might still think about it, after all, he had lived for so many years and was more familiar. But this Chu State ...... There's really no hope of having fun.
"You agreed?" Seeing Tianyou nodding, Ji Yao seemed to be very happy, although she tried her best to hide it, but the joy in her body was a little irrepressible. Pulling Tianyou with a little excitement, after another shh "In that case, I will go back to Chu again in two days and tell your father about this matter. Though we will hide it, your father will tell it. ā
Tianyou didn't plan to inherit the throne anyway, so naturally Ji Yao said what it was, so he just nodded and agreed.
After Ji Yao finished talking about her arrangements alone, she suddenly remembered the matter of the house again, but after thinking about it, she brought Tianyou to the cliff platform where he had settled before.
"How is Jue here?" Ji Yao asked Tianyou.
"It's not bad, the scenery is beautiful, but it's a little windy. ā
"If you like it, if you like. Ji Yao suddenly changed her words, "I'll give it to you here in the future." It just so happens that I demolished your house, and this platform and the cave behind it will be considered to be paid to you. ā
Tianyou excused himself as a matter of course, and of course he didn't resist Ji Yao in the end, but the main reason was that Ji Yao said that this was the place where she and Xiyan found out together, and it was the place where they played together, carrying a lot of memories. Tianyou agreed to stay, so he should reminisce about the sunset.
