Chapter 224: My mother taught me to compete for favor

The little lady can not only write poems and make articles, but also do female red embroidery, and Chen Ji also carries her embroidered sachets.

The ancient sewing techniques and the quality of the fabric were very different from those of modern times, so she could recognize that it was not from the Zhao Kingdom.

Chen Ji didn't make inferences for the time being, took a few pictures of the black cloth and put them away, and then sent them to Zhou Wan, Astana, the empress and others, and asked them to find someone to check together.

Let's make sure what world this guy is from.

"Let's go, let's go see your master!"

Chen Ji hugged her waist, Xia Shumin hummed, and hugged him obediently, now she is very used to being hugged by her son, and she will only feel shy when she has a tryst.

When they arrived downstairs, the two collided head-on with a beam of light, Xia Shumin became nervous again, but before he could speak, the surprised voice of Wang Shaoxia came from a distance:

"Senior Brother Chen! Ah, and Miss Xia, why are you here? ”

The two sides converge.

Chen Ji first used his light and heat ability to shine on the four people on the opposite side to confirm that they were not disguised by something else.

"Uh, Senior Brother Chen?"

"Gongzi Chen, what's wrong?"

Wang Shaodang saw the problem, his face changed from surprise to solemnity, and he shone a flashlight on the building, his eyes were very vigilant, if it wasn't for Chen Gongzi, they wouldn't dare to get so close.

"How long have you been here?"

Chen Ji asked them.

"It's been almost a month."

"Did you find anything?"

"There is no ...... near the building It's just that there are a lot of monsters in the city from the centaur Curim said, is it an anomaly? ”

Chen Ji thought for a while and said to them, "Shumin and I saw a person nearby just now. ”

Wang Shaodang and the four of them were stunned.

They go out with at least three people every time they go out, carrying two flashlights, one of which is used as a backup.

It stands to reason that it is impossible for someone to simply come out and go so far away.

"Senior Brother Chen, who is it?"

"When they met us, they ran away and disappeared into the restaurant upstairs...... Let's go, let's go back! ”

Chen Ji took Xia Shumin and returned to the community where Zhou Wan's villa was located with them.

Ask the old man, Li Yingqing, Qianyuan Demon Ancestor, Kerim and others are all there, as more and more people are there, a villa is no longer enough to live in, they repaired a villa next to it and lived in it.

"Master, mother-in-law!"

Xia Shumin greeted the two obediently.

"Hero of another world, did your return bring good news this time?"

The centaur with a spear in hand, wearing armor and a cloak on his body, hurried back with a sharp pace, and the tip of the spear was covered with dark green blood, which looked extremely terrifying.

At least Xia Shumin exclaimed in fright, his eyes widened, and he looked at him in disbelief: "Gong, Gongzi, this monster ...... No, this is Mr. Centaur from the Holy Maiden World? ”

The world of saints is what she calls the world where Astana is located, and she has not met the other party yet, but she only knows some news from Chen Ji's mouth.

Chen Ji smiled dumbly and comforted her not to be afraid.

Fortunately, Corim didn't understand her words, otherwise he would have corrected her: This human aristocratic lady, I am a lady.

Chen Ji corrected Xia Shumin's name, which made her a little embarrassed, and apologized with her eyes at the three-meter-tall centaur.

"Hero of another world, Mr. Chen Ji, you are returning this time ......"

Currim didn't care about any of this, she asked Chen Ji about the news of the Divine Grace Continent again, her tall body was a little restless, and her sturdy four-legged steps were restless.

The rest of the Jianghu people are used to her performance.

This tall and unusually strong centaur can almost be said to be unable to stay for a moment, running around the city, waving his spear and fighting, turning his eagerness and grief into anger.

She also discovered the treeman monsters that were entrenched in the city.

The strength of Curim's combat power made the people of the rivers and lakes staggered, if it weren't for Chen Ji saying that she was a female centaur, they wouldn't have believed it.

"Good news!"

Chen Ji smiled at the centaur and said, "I met Enos. ”

Suddenly hearing this name, the restless Currim froze, and kept repeating Inos, Inos, the tall and athletic body trembled, whimpering and crying:

"It's my sister, Inos, it's her ......"

Currim held the spear in one hand and wiped away tears with the other, incoherent with excitement.

Everyone was touched by her tears, and a centaur who was so brave on weekdays would also shed tears at this moment.

"Childe ......"

Xia Shumin looked at Chen Ji and was proud of him, Gongzi saved people in fire and water, and he was a well-deserved hero, a true immortal - everyone in the rivers and lakes said so.

"I went to the Northern Snow Mountains with some people, met Paziola behind the Sky Temple, and happened to meet Ling's sister."

"When she saw that you hadn't gone back for a long time, she came out alone......"

"How did she ......?"

Corim is very anxious, it is very dangerous to leave the cave, there are all evil gods outside, and if you run a little slower, you will be overtaken.

"Thankfully, we met her and rescued her and your people."

Chen Ji interrupted her and finished her sentence, focusing on the situation inside the cave and some of the centaurs, convincing Corim that he had indeed gone to Paziola.

Currim looked at him deeply, knelt down in front of Chen Ji, and put the spear in his hand on the ground: "Heroic, honest and trustworthy hero of another world, you have saved our clan, Curim thank you, I am willing to be a weapon in your hand, a war horse under the seat, if I can confirm that my sister has been rescued by you in the future, Curim is willing to offer loyalty to you!" ”

Xia Shumin couldn't understand her words, but she could hear a kind of chanting that was almost like poetry, which she had never been exposed to before.

"Get up."

Chen Ji was accustomed to the way people from the Divine Grace Continent said this, and said to her, "When I have a way to take you back, I will let you go to see your sister." ”

Krium thanked him again, stood up, and said cautiously, "Should I call you master, or lord?" ”

“…… Just call me Chen Ji! ”

"Yes, my lord!"

“?”

Forget it, Chen Ji didn't correct it, and asked her again: "Curim, where exactly did you encounter the spatial rift and come here?" ”

The last time Kirim was here, he didn't trust everything and wouldn't say much.

However, Paziola's situation couldn't be worse, so she turned to Chen Ji for help.

"Your Lord!"

Currim bowed his head and replied respectfully: "When I was on my way to the Elven Forest to ask for help from the Elven Kingdom, I was forced to crash into a cloud of black mist when I was intercepted by the Evil Treant Legion, and after that, I lost consciousness until you saved me!" ”

"Elven Forest?"

"Well, I don't remember the exact location, it's about the south of the forest, there are nearby mountains and canyons, I'm not familiar with the Elven Forest, I only know that there is a tree of life called the Naxi Cui River that leads to the Elven Kingdom, so I ran along a large dry river."

"South of the Elven Forest? I know. ”

Chen Ji nodded.

She didn't know if it was okay, there were elves in the Starlight Holy City, and the two little princesses of the elven kingdom were from the elven forest, and he could completely hug the petite bodies of the twin princesses and listen to them slowly.

Chen Ji remembered the magic carriage again.

"Your Lord!"

Kirim couldn't help but ask, "Are you going to the Elven Forest?" ”

"Yes!"

"Forgive Corim for not doubting your strength, but the Elven Forest is too terrifying right now."

Currim said fearfully: "The originally endless sea of trees, after being infected by evil, turned into an evil treemen like the ocean, they wandered aimlessly, elves, humans, orcs, all could not resist, they could only flee. If you're going, be sure to take a centaur with you and let him take you through the Elven Forest! In the name of the Centaur Chief, I will make him do your bidding! ”

She didn't know anything about the Divine Grace Continent yet, and now Chen Ji didn't need her to give orders, and the centaurs would obey his oracles.

"I'm not going through the Elven Forest."

"And you're going to ......?"

"Rather, purify it!"

"What?"

Kirim was stunned and purified the entire forest? The endless evil treants......

Chen Ji didn't explain much.

Currim was undoubtedly a brave centaur warrior, and even when she saw the terrifying Elven Forest, she rushed into the forest with a glimmer of hope, hoping to find a glimmer of hope to save her people.

But unfortunately, the entire Elven Kingdom has been relocated to the Starlight Holy City, from the queen to the princess, to the elven king Imory, all of them have left the Elven Forest.

Even if she rushed to the side of the World Tree, it would be useless.

"Everyone."

Chen Ji looked at the group of Jianghu people from Zhao State: "Have you made any discoveries recently?" I met a guy near the building......"

After exchanging information with them, a group of people turned red-faced.

They lived here, but they didn't find anything for a month, and as soon as Chen Gongzi came, he bumped into a strange person.

"It doesn't make sense!"

Some people wondered, "We send people to the building every morning, noon and evening to take a look, why can't we meet them?" ”

"I thought, is it that every time we go out, we turn on the flashlight, so we are noticed by the other party? Slipped away early! Liu Sangu said.

"Oh, yes, definitely!"

"The lights are broken!"

"The next time we go out, we turn off the lights."

"Next time? Next time, that sneaky guy is already prepared, and he will definitely turn off the lights. ”

Everyone was talking nonsense.

In the end, Chen Ji only asked for two useful pieces of information.

First, they went to the underground doomsday base, searched around, and found the things he and Zhou Wan left behind last time, and also found the withered World Tree, confirming that it was the only withered and unmutated tree in the entire world.

The second is that Curium is near the port of the city, and finds some evil treants gathered together, they look the same as the Elven Forest, but the strength is much worse, and it is not so terrifying.

Kirim went to fight them several times, but every few days, they would pop up in droves.

"Evil Treants?"

Chen Ji thought for a moment, raised his hand and gave Curim a ball of light, purifying the evil aura that had been integrated into her body.

Corim was completely stunned, such a pure and holy power...... Lord Lord is a powerful godborn?

"I'd like to ask the seniors something."

Chen Ji looked at the old man and asked them.

"Just ask!"

"It's Penglai overseas, the abbot and other legendary fairy islands, have you ever been there?"

Chen Ji added that he and the little lady had encountered islands near the North Pole, as well as strange beasts that were similar to those recorded in the Book of Mountains and Seas.

A group of Jianghu people have fried the pot.

But they couldn't go back, so they could only stare dryly.

"Abbot Penglai?"

Ask the disciple of the old man of the immortals, Li Yingqing, who used to live in Xia Mansion and was called a lover mother-in-law by Xia Shumin, and was also slapped by Chen Ji, who had just become an immortal, said in a slightly humble tone:

"I have been to those islands several times in order to become immortal, and there is nothing surprising, the largest Penglai Island is about half the size of Yongkang County, and there are more than 100,000 households on the island, most of which live by the sea."

She briefly told Chen Ji about the situation of the so-called fairy island, and said that this was a random name of the ancients, or a legend, and there were no immortals on the island at all.

Xia Shumin blinked and looked at Chen Ji.

Maybe the immortals are hiding?

For example, hiding on the earth.

"I see."

Chen Ji nodded, he was a little curious about Penglai Island.

However, this lover-in-law, who seemed very irritable at first, was gentle next to her master, and she was very satisfied with living in this dark place.

After the exchange of information, Chen Ji asked them to pay more attention in the future, and it would be better to find the traces of the man in black.

……

In the evening, ten o'clock.

"Green bamboo, green bamboo, I'm back~~"

Xia Shumin was carried by Chen Ji and landed in her garden, she shouted happily to the house, the pair of delicate twin maids, wearing light pajamas, ran out, and after seeing her and Chen Ji with sleepy eyes, they suddenly woke up and shouted happily together:

"Ah, it's Miss, Miss and Uncle are back~~!"

A crisp shout came out, and the back house of the Xia Mansion was alarmed.

Although most of the people in the house have slept, as long as the young lady and her aunt come back, they have to get up and wait until they die, to see if the young lady needs anything, whether to eat or take a bath.

"Ah, don't alarm father and mother!"

Xia Shumin hurriedly stopped them and told them not to call people.

Fortunately, everyone else didn't care, some unneatly dressed maids ran over, their hair was still messy, obviously they had just woken up, but they also ran over and asked Luzhu and Cuizhu if they were going to arrange the kitchen to boil water.

Chen Ji watched this scene with a smile.

Every time he goes back to Red Leaf Mountain, he gives him a sense of warmth, the back house of the Xia Mansion, the place where the little lady lives, especially this small courtyard, he likes it very much.

"Childe, go back."

Xia Shumin was very reserved, and reluctantly said goodbye to Chen Ji, and said embarrassedly: "The accommodation in the house is too poor, and the water heater and bathtub in the son's house are better than the little woman's here~." ”

Chen Ji flicked her forehead with her fingers, "I don't have a bathtub, it's your sister's family." ”

Xia Shumin bit her thin cherry lips, and wanted to say goodbye to her son again, her heart was empty.

"Childe ......"

She shouted.

Chen Ji hugged her delicate waist and took off her very thick warm clothes, which startled the green bamboo and cuizhu who walked into the yard.

"Get the clothes for your lady!"

Chen Ji smiled and took off the little lady's mink, cape, hat, scarf, and gloves and threw them to the two maids.

Xia Shumin obediently let him fiddle.

Even she didn't notice that this was the first time she had been loosely dressed and untied by Childe.

Fortunately.

Chen Ji asked her to keep a white, light pajamas and hugged the little lady into her arms.

"Childe."

Xia Shumin hugged him, and didn't care about whether men and women were kissed or not, and he didn't care about what sons asked for self-respect.

I want to hold my son right now.

"Next time, after the real estate agent confirms a few houses, I will go with you to see the house, how about we buy a set and get married and live in?"

Chen Ji picked up her sensitive little face and said softly.

"Hmmm......"

Xia Shumin blushed with shame, and Cuizhu behind her shouted, "Miss and Mrs. are here", and she pushed Chen Ji away in a panic: "Childe, next time we go to buy a house, Shumin and Childe's home ......"

Before Lu Rui stepped into the courtyard, she left Chen Ji's embrace, stood squirmed, and saluted her mother who came in.

Chen Ji smiled, said goodbye to his future mother-in-law, and left this world.

Leave the little lady to face her mother.

Half a quarter of an hour later.

"You, you, you're stupid!"

After Lu Rui asked clearly, she nodded her baby daughter's forehead angrily: "How can I live in someone else's house?" ”

"It's Childe's ......"

"It's not your husband's."

Lu Rui said around the corner.

Xia Shumin blushed again, and said, "Is it Sister Wan?" Sister Wan is very nice, mother, you don't know, her house is very high, and there is a large area of electricity lights outside! It's beautiful! ”

The two maids were fascinated, I wonder if they will marry the young lady in the future, and they will be able to see a large area of electric lights?

"You stupid girl!"

Lu Rui covered her forehead and looked at her facelessly, "You just call someone else Sister Wan, and you still live in it...... In the future, it's not that she wants to be big, but you are smaller? ”

“……”

“……”

"Huh?"

Xia Shumin was completely stunned.

Why didn't she think of this?

"That's... Mother teach me? ”

"Teach you to compete for favor? I'm sorry, your mother is a princess, and she hasn't competed for favor! ”

"Woooooo

Xia Shumin covered her little face with both hands.

Lu Rui glanced at her light undershirt, and sighed again, this stupid girl, her body has been seen by her husband, right?

Hurry up and marry her off! This daughter can't be wanted!
