Chapter 123: Fresh Toys
You're not really happy, and your smile is just a protective color you wear......
Zhou Daoqi is now using "ridiculousness" to give himself a layer of protection, and using a careless and careless attitude towards cultivation to cover up the embarrassment of his inadequacy.
Now, when he felt that Zhou Daoan's adventure was very likely to be a shortcut to cultivation, that heart immediately fluttered and came alive!
At the moment, he will not let Zhou Daoan go easily no matter what, no matter what you say, I will just say one word - I want to hold this thigh!
Zhou Daoan is really big-headed. Helpless, his return this time was indeed not carefully arranged, not to mention being broken by Zhou Daoqi, even the water chestnut was seen, if he was uneasy at the moment, he might be soon, and Zhou Dao'an's ability to shuttle between the "fairy world" would be arched out.
"It's really not good, promise him first? Also, didn't the coffee beans pull me in in the quest in the first place? I wasn't much of a ferryman at the time...... This should prove that the Ark is capable of 'inviting' people other than ferrymen to participate in the mission. It's just that I don't know if ordinary people will definitely sign a contract to become a ferryman if they participate, or if they participate in the first mission, it will definitely be a death mission......"
Thinking of this, Zhou Daoan had no choice but to have a serious face, and said to the entangled Zhou Daoqi:
"Third brother, let's talk about it first! If you really want to, I can go and talk to the old man...... But, I can't guarantee that he will agree. ”
"Ahh You promised! Of course, of course......" Zhou Daoqi hurriedly agreed.
"And ...... Even if my husband agrees, you may not meet him...... In short, give them a favor, and you may only hear their voices tell you to do something...... If you fail, the punishment will also be severe, and you may even – die! ”
Zhou Daoqi didn't say anything yet, but the water chestnut was already frightened "ah" - it turned out that Brother An'er was not a good errand for the gods! Can the gods be so ruthless?
Zhou Daoan glared at the water chestnut, and continued in his mouth: "In addition, once you become the helper of the immortals, it is likely that you will continue to help them do things...... Until they let you go, the process can be long......"
"I know, what you mean is that if you sign a deed of sale with them, you can't resist either you fulfill the deed or die in their house, right?" This time, Zhou Daoqi answered, and it seemed that he was very prepared.
“…… Almost! Zhou Daoan thought about it, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with the term "deed of sale", and added, "The most important thing is that this matter must be certain, and it can't be said to others!" If it was known to others, I would probably be severely punished by the gods, and maybe even I would die...... In this way, there will be no one to intercede for you, third brother......"
Zhou Daoqi immediately slapped his chest loudly and said, "Don't worry, fourth, my mouth is the strictest at home!" This matter will never be leaked. Whoever dares to say anything about you, I'll let him die! What Qingming, Tie Niu, or even my father...... I won't say it! ”
Seeing that Zhou Daoqi swore a poisonous oath, Zhou Daoan looked at the water chestnut again-
"Ahh Brother An, I don't want to see the gods...... Don't worry, I won't say anything about it, otherwise...... It's called that the water chestnut can't marry for the rest of its life...... Also, my teeth are gone, and I can't eat anymore......"
The little girl loves snacks and doesn't pay attention to brushing her teeth, but her teeth are good. Zhou Daoan always said that sooner or later, her teeth would rot out, but she didn't care...... Swear by this, it looks like the little girl is very serious......
"I can't even tell my wife when she asks, you know?" Zhou Daoan instructed.
"Yes, even if my wife asks, the water chestnut will never say it......" The water chestnut subconsciously covered his mouth, just now Brother An said that if others knew that he was helping the immortals, the immortals would be angry...... If the work is not done well, the gods will be severely punished, and if others know the secrets of the gods, it is really possible to die...... The last time Brother An almost died, everyone was so sad that they were so sad. Brother An can't die anymore......
Seeing the little girl's scared look, Zhou Daoan also knew that she was almost scared - think about it the other way, it would be good to let the little girl know that she would "disappear" from time to time, so that there would be one more person who would let herself out of the wind and play sloppy, and it would be more convenient for her to act in the future. Today, because I didn't say it in advance, many people don't care about taking a nap at all, not to mention that the system is limited to an hour, what if there is an accident and it is delayed for a while?
While reflecting, Zhou Daoan told the two of them a few details, and after thinking about his lies, there were no other flaws for the time being, so this matter could be counted.
"By the way, third brother, didn't you say that you would only go at night? What's the matter with you coming here? Putting down one thing, Zhou Daoan asked Zhou Daoqi the purpose of his trip.
"Huh? Oh! Hi ......" Zhou Daoqi was stunned for a moment, and then patted his head as if he remembered something - he was a little too excited! After so many years of embarking on the path of cultivation, my wish to embark on the path of cultivation is about to come true, and where can I still care about that little thing in my mind?
"It's not a big deal, it's just that I got a fresh toy and brought it to you......" Zhou Daoqi said now in a "light and light" manner, but he didn't know that when he just got the "toy", he was excited to demolish the house.
"Toys?!" This word immediately reminded Zhou Daoan of the "toy" that Zhou Daoqi took out when he made a bet before, which should have become fuel in Chef Feng's stove at this moment.
"Water chestnut, it's none of your business...... Don't move my bed! You get out! I'll talk to the third brother! Zhou Daoan hurriedly broke away the little girl - if Zhou Daoqi came up with something shocking, it would really teach the child badly.
"Wow, fourth, are you thinking crooked? Think I'm fooling you with that stuff again? I'm telling you, this time it's really good! Come on, come on, you come with me......" Zhou Daoqi reacted, immediately felt dissatisfied, and pulled Zhou Daoan to walk out.
"To tell you the truth, I originally wanted to use this thing to anger you - you also know that your third brother is such a character who does not admit defeat......" Zhou Daoqi chatted while walking.
The character of not admitting defeat...... I can't afford to lose! Zhou Dao said calmly.
"I was going to use this thing to get you to be obedient and tell me what happened to you this morning...... But now! After all, you have done me a great favor, of course, I can't be an unreasonable person, so I won't inquire about the morning's affairs, and I'll take you directly to see good things now! Zhou Daoqi spoke quickly, and said his inner thoughts like pouring beans into a bamboo tube, which could only make Zhou Daoan helpless and funny.
"I've mixed up the two things...... Forget it, I'm too lazy to explain. Zhou Daoan shook his head.
followed Zhou Daoqi for a while, went downstairs and walked through the house, the two of them met with Qing Ming and Tie Niu on the second floor, and found that Xiao Gui had already come with curiosity, and the group went directly to the first floor.
Although the West Zhou Huizi Building is not as tall and wide as the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and it is also small in style, it is always a "landmark" building in Yuzhang County, and the area of one floor is as large as a modern football field.
The middle part of the first floor was originally opened up to grow some crops - as mentioned earlier, this world has its own unique "technology", although to grow rice, it still needs a large and open area; However, some vegetables and fruits can just make use of the empty area in the center of the building, and the second floor is a natural greenhouse.
The people of the Western Zhou Dynasty were not prosperous, and there were not many helpers and servants at home, so it was more than enough to serve Zhou Daoan's mother and son. The tenants who lived on the first floor were enough to open up the land in the courtyard outside the building, and the space in the building really didn't have much energy to open up, so the piece of land in the middle of the first floor was empty, and only a flat layer of grass was paved, which really looked like a football field.
At this time, there is a big guy who catches the eye on this grass!
Although he is not familiar enough with this world, Zhou Daoan is not completely sure what this big guy in front of him is, but according to the appearance of that thing, he makes up some props for science fiction movies...... Zhou Daoan had already guessed that this thing should be a land walker!
You must know that the transportation in this world is not at all like ancient in the real sense, and is closer to another advanced civilization - Zhou Daoan jokingly called it the Asgard of the oriental wind - with goblins as the energy source, there are three ways: land walkers, flying machines, and teleportation arrays.
The teleportation array belongs to the official family and a very small number of first-class families to master, ignore it, just talk about land walkers and flying machines. Aircraft, like small airplanes and helicopters on the earth, are difficult to operate and require professionals to fly, so they are not very close to the people.
There is only a land walker, which is suitable for the general public, and many ordinary well-off homes have a means of transportation. There is naturally no shortage of families like the Zhou family - even in the Western Zhou Dynasty, there are also two ordinary land walkers for the family to use. Of course, usually only Uncle Bai will go out to run errands, or large-scale purchases, will dispatch a partial cargo type landwalker, Zhou Daoan and Zhou Lu's main family will choose a relatively comfortable small landwalker. As for the carriage, it was just a status symbol, not practical......
Landwalkers are driven not on wheels, but on "limbs". The shape tends to be close to the legendary "wooden ox and flowing horse", which is a typical bionic crystallization. The carriage is the belly of a giant beast, and people and goods "sit" in it, manipulate the driving, and start to step on all four legs. It's not slow, it's not as fast as a car on Earth, but it's about the same as a horse.
The land walkers that the Western Zhou Dynasty itself has are at least 15 years old "old cars". Zhou Daoan only sat once out of curiosity. It feels like it's like sitting on a tractor on the earth - one word, upside down! As soon as the four legs accelerated, the feeling was not even as comfortable as the carriage......
