Ten diligent days: the fields are still

Yiheng was strangled to the point of being unable to breathe. He pulled off Xiao Huzi's arm and soothed him, "You've worked hard! Um, why did you come to us..."

The man with the mustache wiped his tears, took off the bag on his back, opened it, and revealed the gold inside. "Oh, the Dharma Protector asked me to come. He said that you will definitely suffer a lot when you go out to explore the world, and the money you brought is too little, and you will definitely not be able to last for a few days. He asked me to bring this money to you."

The man with the mustache pushed the bag to the middle of the table. "Because this is too heavy, I hid it as I went along. Now this is all I have on me, but I remember where it is and I can find it later. It's a little less, but there's a mountain in our village that's full of this. If it's not enough, I'll go back and get more."

Huh? A whole mountain? This is like a gold mine!

The brothers were a bit confused by this sudden wealth. How could they make money? Why set up a stall? Why sell their skills? Why roll up their sleeves? Wouldn't this just mean they could just lie down and reach the pinnacle of life?

But they were pretending to be the king! By some strange coincidence, they were mistaken for the king, and the real king is still imprisoned in the Demon Control Bureau!

Dun Dun closed his bag, his expression a little serious, "What's your name?"

The mustache boy was even more confused, somewhat surprised that Dun Dun would ask such a question. "Your Majesty, you've been out for so long that you don't even remember my name? I'm Zhuang Zhuang!"

These two words were like a bolt from the blue, pulling everyone back to the messy back gate.

"This name was given to me by the Great King. When I was wandering in the mountains and being bullied by the demon tamer, it was the Great King who picked me up and named me Zhuangzhuang. Later, the Second Great King promoted me and transferred me to your side."

Zhuangzhuang became more and more excited as he spoke, and in the end, his nose and tears were flowing together, which was a terrible sight.

Gengyun took out a piece of cloth and taught Zhuangzhuang to wipe his face clean. He asked expectantly, "Do you know Mimi, Xiaobai, and Xiaohuihui?"

"Who is that? A cat? Why do you ask this, Your Majesty?" Zhuangzhuang was thinking about the gold hidden outside and didn't notice that Gengyun suddenly lowered his head after he finished speaking.

At this time, Qi Rong came back. As soon as he entered the room, he felt that the atmosphere in the room was not right.

"what happened?"

Zhuangzhuang opened his mouth wide when he saw Qi Rong, then suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Lord Mountain God! Living Lord Mountain God!"

Qi Rong helped Zhuang Zhuang up and immediately denied it, "I'm not a mountain god."

"Of course it is! Your statue is still being worshipped in the mountain god cave!" Zhuangzhuang was excited. He took out something like a whistle from his sleeve, put it to his mouth and blew it, but no sound came out.

Qi Rong hesitated to speak and walked out of the house alone, followed by Yuan Lai.

Xiao He walked up to Zhuang Zhuang, also full of anticipation, "Zhuang Zhuang, is Xiao Lang your best friend?"

Zhuangzhuang shook his head. "I don't know him. There's no one with that name in the village. Who is that? Is he a friend of the king? If he is, he will definitely be welcomed in the village!"

"No, I'm just asking."

"This place is really different from the mountain stronghold. Aside from the annoying demon tamer, everything is fun. If I weren't thinking about the king, I would have wanted to have fun here..."

Yuan Lai chased Qi Rong, walked past the pavilion, and stopped by a clear lake.

"What's wrong? You look worried."

Qi Rong nodded. "Lu Zizhou personally interrogated the ten demons. As expected, they're linked to a concubine murder case in the palace. The palace will send someone the day after tomorrow, and I suspect the emperor has issued a death warrant. After all, the royal family's reputation is paramount, and after a two-week-long crackdown, the people should be given an explanation."

Yuan Lai was just about to ask whether this incident would affect their future life here when he saw a little beggar push open the stone of the dog hole and crawl in from the outside. When he saw Qi Rong, he was very happy and ran into the lake.

Then a head emerged from the bottom of the lake, "Daddy, you're finally back! Look, I learned how to swim!"

Daddy... Daddy? When did Qi Rong even have a child?

Yuan Lai suddenly figured everything out. No wonder Qi Rong chose the middle road and lied to her that the middle road was the easiest to go. So he was waiting there?

The amount of information that day was so overwhelming that Yuan Lai was already on the verge of digesting it all. Her eyes went dark and she fainted.

The little beggar emerged from the water, came to Yuan Lai, and asked curiously, "Why did she faint? Was she touched by my cuteness?"

Qi Rong hugged Yuan Lai's waist and smiled helplessly, "She was scared by you."

"Ah? Human beings are so fragile. They get scared like this with just a few words." The little beggar shook the water off his head.

Qi Rong sent Yuan Lai back to the room and asked the little beggar to call An An.

An An was woken up from her sleep and was in a bad mood. Seeing Yuan Lai fainted on the bed, she didn't think twice and hit Yuan Lai with a heavy hammer, waking him up.

The little beggar lay on the edge of the bed, looking at Yuan Lai depressedly, "I'm so cute, how could you be scared by me? Am I scary?"

"I..." The little beggar looked very cute, but when Yuan Lai thought that this was Qi Rong's child, she felt a little resistant in her heart. However, this resistance came for no reason and was meaningless, which made her very uncomfortable.

Qi Rong stood at the door, holding an exquisite box in his hand, and waved to the little beggar with a smile, "Zhao Zhao, come here, I bought you something delicious."

The little beggar ran out cheering.

Yuan Lai felt even more uncomfortable. In the past, Qi Rong would definitely come and ask her how she felt, but now, he was too lazy to even enter the room.

After all, habit becomes nature. In fact, if you think about it carefully, it's not just her. Qi Rong is very gentle to everyone. She has been taken care of too much and she has taken it for granted.

The more she thought about it, the more she wanted to cry. What? Was it all just her wishful thinking?

Then isn't the dependence she sometimes shows particularly ridiculous in Qi Rong's eyes?

How are we going to get along with each other in the future?

She wants to go home.

An An looked at Yuan Lai, who was lying on the bed with a worried look on his face and twisted into a maggot, and was a little speechless. "Hey, what are you doing? My injury has just healed, please don't fall down again."

"Go to sleep, I'm fine, just let me be quiet."

An An stood up and looked at Yuan Lai's pitiful eyes. Finally, she couldn't help but said, "Don't think too much. That little beggar is a little blue dragon. There is no way he has a blood relationship with Master Hua Xuan."

"How do you know there is no blood relationship?" They are all monsters, there must be no such thing as reproductive isolation, then everything is possible.

"Just trust me." An An said no more and went back to her room to catch up on some sleep.

Yuan Lai tossed and turned in bed, thinking over and over again, rolling from the head of the bed to the foot of the bed, and from the foot of the bed to the head of the bed.

Thinking back to the mirage that appeared before Qi Rong returned that day, could the blue dragon in the mirage be that little beggar? How could this little beggar live so comfortably in Kyoto, where demon tamers are everywhere?
