Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system
Chapter 676 Background Rabbit Spirit (48)
"Master Changsheng, please take care."
"Your Highness, Princess, please stay. We will take care of the affairs of the city as soon as possible."
After staying in Qixing City for a few more days, the friction between the two countries' borders gradually eased, and the two generals had completely taken over the border affairs. Lin Xingzhi planned to leave the city and head to his next destination.
Taoist Changsheng naturally could not leave. The few disciples sent by the Taoist temple were not up to the task, and the national teacher of the enemy country had too many conspiracies and tricks, so he needed to stay for a while and wait for the Taoist temple to send new Taoists before he could leave.
"It's not easy for Taoist Changsheng," he originally just wanted to accept a disciple.
Lin Xingzhi smiled and gently held Shen Yao in his arms, saying that Taoist Changsheng was done with this matter and would probably return to the capital to practice as soon as possible.
"Jing'er is getting older," and the couple can accept that he and the others should return to the Taoist temple with Taoist Changsheng to practice.
After all, parents cannot accompany their children for their entire lives, and they need to make their own decisions on how to move forward in the future.
The carriage left Qixing City and headed forward towards new cities.
Thanks to the deal Shen Yao had previously made with the group of cat demons in Qixing City, their patrol went very smoothly as long as they did not leave the area around the north.
It can be said that they did not encounter any trouble at all. Whether they were officials or civilians, they all looked well-behaved and docile, just like little lambs.
Lin Xingzhi: ...Ah?
Looking at the letter of apology handed to him, Lin Xingzhi blinked. Well, no matter what the reason was, it would not do him any harm.
"If the city in the west is like what we see now, we can return to the capital earlier." It is good to go out for inspection and experience the customs and habits of different places, but the long journey will inevitably make one physically and mentally exhausted. It is no match for staying in the capital to enjoy the peace and comfort.
I think when they return to the capital again, the emperor's rewards will not be more stingy than the previous times.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yao raised her eyes and glared at Lin Xingzhi, "Be careful that the emperor will find out and punish you." Isn't it okay to talk to someone else like that?
Lin Xingzhi said seriously, "My wife and I have been away from home for years and have endured hardships. Is it possible that we still can't earn the emperor's pity?"
What's more, the three children have titles but no titles. No matter what Lin Xingzhi says this time, it will make the emperor bleed a lot. He does not ask to be on equal footing with the princes and princesses in the palace in public, but he must not lose the benefits he deserves in private.
Shen Yao pursed her lips and chuckled softly, thinking that she didn't know whether the emperor would show mercy, but he would definitely give her all the benefits she deserved.
Who in the Li Kingdom could replace Lin Xingzhi now? The Emperor was paying a fortune for a horse's bones. Before a new figure emerged in the imperial family, Lin Xingzhi was like the moon in the sky, and the Emperor had to figure out how to pluck him.
Enough of the couple's gossip, now let's get down to business, which can arouse more human emotions.
The clothes on his body were stripped off one by one and slowly piled up all over the ground.
Shen Yao's gaze moved from bottom to top and then from top to bottom. When she reacted, the person had already returned to the bed.
As the hanging bed curtains fell, the small, narrow space became quiet and ambiguous, their breathing sounds intertwined, their bodies naturally pressed against each other, and finally merged into one, as if the two of them wanted to rub each other into their own bones and blood.
The tiny sounds continued intermittently for a long time, until the moon rose above the eyebrows outside the window and everything was silent, and the room returned to its original tranquility.
…………
When I opened my eyes again, the sun was already high in the sky.
Shen Yao shook her head, stood up and asked the servant to help her get out of bed and wash up.
She changed into a beautiful light green long dress, her hair was half combed up and half let down, with beautiful beads placed behind her head, making a jingling sound when she walked.
The servants had already brought a sumptuous meal, all of which were Shen Yao's favorite flavors.
At this time they were stopping to rest in a town called Luoyi.
Luoyi is a hundred miles away from the Seven Stars. It is also the farthest city that the cat demons are responsible for. Once they leave here, they will inevitably encounter troubles of all sizes in the cities they encounter next.
"Perhaps you can continue to employ us. The previous deal was very fair. The cat demon clan is in great need of such a spiritual transformation pill."
As the tribe leader, Dahei has been working extremely hard recently. He even gave up his favorite activities like sunbathing and lying in a rocking chair, just to earn more Spiritual Transformation Pills for his tribe members before Shen Yao leaves the relevant area.
Shen Yao raised her eyebrows, indicating that her elixirs were not inexhaustible. Besides, the cat demon had made a lot of money during this period of time, so she must not be greedy. She must keep her original heart in order to last long.
Big black:……
Dahei thought that what this person said was really interesting. He was willing to give out good things but not give more. It was also because their cat demon clan kept their promise (in fact, they could not beat them at all), otherwise why would they let go of the Hualing Pill.
"Humans, are you really not going to give it much thought?"
Dahei was a little unwilling to give up. He walked up to Shen Yao and acted cute while talking. This old goblin, who didn't know how many years he had lived, was really shameless.
Shen Yao couldn't help but stroke Dahei's soft fur. Listening to Dahei's purring, she smiled and explained that it wasn't that she didn't give it much thought, but that the Cat Demon Clan was so powerful. "If the news of the Spiritual Transformation Pill leaks out, have you ever thought about what will happen to the Cat Demon Clan?"
Any transaction is allowed within the permitted range. Once it exceeds this bottom line, unless the cat demon has a powerful background and strong backers to use, otherwise you will be robbed by the demon.
Big black:……
Dahei stood up angrily, dodging the finger that was about to be placed on him, "You human, you have such bad intentions, you actually hope that our cat demon clan will suffer misfortune."
The news about the Spirit Transformation Pill is being kept quite well secret at the moment. Except for them, no other monsters know about it.
Shen Yao:......
Shen Yao held her chin and pointed out the goblins with whom she had traded the Spiritual Transformation Pill, "You are just one of them," implying that other goblins might have leaked the information as well.
From themselves to others, there will definitely be some smart monsters who will associate it with the cat monster clan.
When Dahei heard this, the cat's eyes widened, and its big brown vertical pupils slowly turned completely black.
Yes!
I forgot that there are other monsters here. Not all monsters are as morally upright as the cat monsters. What if they are leaked by other monsters?
The beautiful black cat swung its thick tail anxiously and kept looking around.
Shen Yao knew when to stop and didn't say anything else to irritate the black cat in front of her. They only changed the topic after the black cat slowly returned to normal.
Let’s skip the matter of the Spirit Transformation Pill for now. Shen Yao handed the final payment to Dahei, which meant that the transaction between the two parties was over.
"Bon voyage, human."
"See you later."
Shen Yao smiled and watched the black cat jump out the window and leave. The system hid in her mind and complained that the host had deceived the little cat, saying that it was clearly a fairy too.
"What does it matter whether it's a human or a demon?" It won't hinder her from doing anything.
Besides, she never admitted that she was a human. It was all the cat demon who shouted that. How could it be considered a lie?
system:……
The little kitten was not too miserable after being deceived. Even if he knew that the host was a monster, it would not affect the transaction. The matter of the Spiritual Transformation Pill came to an end. With the matter of Luoyi over, everyone officially stepped out of the area around Qixing City.
"Mother, Master, Master~"
Lin Shengjing was playing with the jade pendant hanging on his body, and suddenly thought of the Taoist Changsheng who was far away in Qixing City, and couldn't help but recite a few words.
Shen Yao hugged Lin Shengjing and rocked him again and again, "Jing'er, do you miss your master?"
Lin Shengjing nodded and shook her head. It wasn't that she missed her master, but she was a little uncomfortable with his absence.
Because no matter how busy Taoist Changsheng was, he would always take time to teach Lin Shengjing, either by talking about Taoism or sharing his experiences, striving to lay a solid foundation before Lin Shengjing officially enters Taoism, so as not to waste any of Lin Shengjing's talent and understanding.
"Master will be able to come to see Jing'er soon," Lin Shengjing is about to turn three years old, and Taoist Changsheng regards her as the successor of his mantle.
Compared to others, Taoist Changsheng, who had to stay in Qixing City, would be more eager to come to Lin Shengjing.
"Jing'er will also always wait for Master," Lin Shengjing said with a curved eyebrow.
"Oh hehe, you are indeed a disciple of the old Taoist. I am very pleased with you."
Taoist Changsheng raised his hand and touched his beard. He had been extremely happy since he received the letter from the bird. Even though the master and disciple were far apart, the relationship between them was still strong and stable.
Lin Shengjing, who only wrote the missing letter at his mother's urging: ...
Taoist Changsheng was so engrossed in his imagination that he even smiled while handling matters that day, which surprised the two generals in charge. What had happened to the Taoist? Could it be that the enemy nation had suffered a disaster?
The enemy nation hadn't suffered, but it wasn't far from being ravaged. Taoist Changsheng was now seemingly divinely assisted, his potential and explosive power far surpassing normal levels. The wandering Taoist priests on the other side were beaten back repeatedly, utterly terrified.
"Humph! You are nothing but an evil demon! How dare you challenge the Taoist Master!"
Taoist Changsheng snorted and laughed, made a hand gesture and rushed straight to the face of Taoist Youfang.
"You didn't use your full strength before. Was it intentional or did you look down on him?" Thinking of this possibility, the wandering Taoist priest was immediately furious.
Seeing this, the Taoist Changsheng chuckled and said that he didn't need to use all his strength to deal with such a small Taoist. Even if he was angry, what would it matter? Could it be that the Taoist cultivation level could be transferred by human will?
Wandering Taoist Priest: ...
Unable to defeat the Taoist priest Changsheng, the wandering Taoist priest could only retreat in anger. Both sides then called off their battles and would fight again next time.
However, Taoist Changsheng had already received a letter from the Taoist temple, saying that the new candidate would arrive soon, and then Taoist Changsheng would no longer have to stay in Qixing City.
"Go back and tell the two generals that the enemy has retreated and everything else is normal."
Lin Xingzhi lifted the curtain that blocked the wind and sand, looked at the endless desert in front of him, and asked how long it would take them to reach Shaxi Town.
"Your Highness, there are still two days left," Lin An replied.
"Hurry up, the longer we stay here, the bigger the water problem will be." There are few places to replenish food and water in the desert, so they must reach Shaxi Town before water problems arise.
"Yes"
Letting go of the curtain, Lin Xingzhi returned to the carriage and sighed helplessly.
Shen Yao patted Lin Xingzhi's shoulder soothingly. "We've only been here three days, and our guide said there won't be any serious sandstorms at this time. I believe we'll reach Shaxi Town soon."
This desert is long, narrow and wide, and many cities in the west are located in it.
The Shaxi Town that Shen Yao and others were going to got its name because there was a stream passing through the city. Shaxi Town even had to relocate several times due to problems such as stream diversion.
The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is large. People may have to wear thick clothes in the morning, but have to take off their outer clothes because of the hot weather at noon. When the sun sets in the evening, they have to put on even thicker coats.
Daily meals are prepared before coming in, and after several days, even if they are delicious, they will make people disgusted.
Lin Shengyan's three children were the first to make a fuss. They wanted to eat their favorite flavors. What was this dry pastry in their hands? They wanted to eat the soft and tender snow cake.
Lin Xingzhi used the excuse that 'there will be something after arriving in Shaxi Town' to get away with it, but the three children didn't buy it. Shen Yao still had a way to give them temporary peace, but it was a pity that this method could not be used repeatedly.
"Be good, go to sleep, we'll be there when you wake up."
Raising her hands, she patted the bellies of the three children, and told the servants on night watch to keep warm at all times. Shen Yao left the tent and returned to the carriage.
Lin Xingzhi was flipping through Lin Jinyu's travelogue. All the western cities recorded in it were covered with a thick layer of sand without exception.
It is even more beautiful than the Shuofang City in the north.
"It's very late. You've worked hard all day, so you should rest early." Shen Yao raised her hand and took the travel notes from Lin Xingzhi's hand. She glared at the person next to her who always liked to work hard at night, and quickly pushed him aside to lie down.
Lin Xingzhi: ...
Lin Xingzhi raised the corners of his lips and smiled brightly.
Shen Yao didn't want to say anything. Staying in the desert day and night would make people anxious and bored even if they were safe. She leaned her head in Lin Xingzhi's arms to put aside her wild thoughts, and fell asleep after a while.
It was a dreamless night. The sun rose outside the window, and the warm orange light sprinkled on the ground, laying a thin blanket leading to the future for those who got up early.
The person leading the way rubbed his eyes, as if he was confirming something.
No, that’s right, that’s right…right?
"Let's continue on our journey after breakfast. What's the problem?" Lin An walked up to the person leading the way and asked.
"There is no problem at all," the leader said haltingly. After Lin An nodded and left, he called out to him, "Sir, it seems we can reach Shaxi Town today."
It was originally planned for tomorrow, but the scene I saw this morning was too familiar.
Maybe I was too nervous and remembered it wrong?
The person leading the way consoled himself with a few words, and especially when he thought about the reward he would get after arriving at Shaxi Town, he couldn't help but feel excited.
Lin An didn't pay attention to the guide's expression. After hearing that they could arrive in Shaxi Town today, he couldn't wait to tell Lin Xingzhi.
Shen Yao was very surprised:...Ah?
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" The system said it hadn't made a mistake this time. Considering the distance between Shaxi Town and them, a day would be like a fantasy.
"Then let's wait and see what kind of monsters and demons will appear in Shaxi Town ahead."
One of the parties involved must be lying. Compared to overly objective systems, overly subjective humans are more likely to make mistakes.
As it turned out, the Shaxi Town that could be reached in one day was not the Shaxi Town they really wanted to go to, but this was also Shaxi Town, just one of the old sites that had to be abandoned due to the diversion of the stream.
