My mother jumped off the black dragon, and Mo Yue and I quickly got off the cold star and went to support her.
The tears in the mother's eyes kept flickering, and she muttered in her mouth: "How many years, how many years, I have finally returned to human beings, Dragon God, I have finally returned."
I whispered: "Mom, don't get too excited, let's find a place to live first."
Mother nodded and returned to the back of the black dragon with our support.
Since there are three beauties in our group, most of the people on the road cast curious and envious eyes on us. Mo Yue and the other three girls have almost 100% turning heads.
Although I don't have a lot of money, I won't let my mother feel wronged, so I found the biggest hotel to settle down.
With my mother accompanying me, of course I couldn't seem too close to Yue'er, so I arranged for Bai Jian to share a room with her mother, Yue'er to share a room with Lan'er, and to save money, I shared a standard room with Pan Zong and Jinyin Inside.
Since Yin is a woman, she and Jin naturally share a bed.
Brother Panzong originally wanted me to sleep in another bed, but of course I couldn't do that. After my repeated requests, he agreed to sleep on the bed.
I asked the people in the hotel to ask for a set of bedding and spread it on the floor of the room. This is where I will rest tonight.
At night, at the mother's request, we all left the hotel together after dinner and wandered on the street.
My mother wants to see more changes in the Dragon God Empire over the years, how can I refuse her request
The weakest ones here are the mother and the white sword, and the image of gold and silver cannot be exposed, so they are the key protection objects of the rest of us. We surround them outside, protect them in the center, and walk around in the courtyard. Stroll up.
Even compared with the Demon Race, the Dragon God Empire is much more prosperous. Although it is getting late, most of the shops are still open. A few lanterns will be hung at the entrance of the small shops, and some larger ones, or The entrances of shops engaged in treasure trading are illuminated with magic stones.
Perhaps the humans here are used to wandering out at night, and there are no fewer people on the street than during the day.
Mo Yue and I supported my mother to walk in the front, while Pan Zong and Lan'er were the last ones at the end.
Mother suddenly pointed to a shop in front of her, and said, "Xiang'er, look, that's a time-honored jewelry store. I remember he brought me here back then. The bell I asked you to hand over to him was bought here." of."
Of course I know what my mother is talking about is the Duke of Zifeng. Since I left the orc capital, I have asked my mother more than once how she would treat the Duke, and her answer is always: "I just want to take a look at him from a distance to make sure he is safe." , that's enough, I won't disturb his life. Your father is dead, and I don't hate anyone anymore, I just want to grow old like this and watch you marry a wife and have children. "
If Duke Zifeng knew how his mother was feeling now, he didn't know what would happen.
If the father hadn't died at the beginning, the mother might still have the possibility of accepting Zifeng. But when her father died, it seemed that her mother's heart also died. She no longer had any interest in these things. Could it be that their lovers couldn't get married in the end
Now, when I saw this jewelry store again, it aroused my mother's interest and reminded her of Zifeng, so I quickly echoed: "Then let's go in and see if there is anything similar to when you came here." Variety?"
Mother nodded and walked up the steps of the store.
Mo Yue and I quickly followed, and just as we were about to enter the store, we heard Pan Zong behind him say: "Fourth, you go, let's walk around."
I nodded, turned around and looked at the jumping Lan'er, and then at the silent gold and silver, these living treasures, please don't cause trouble for me again.
Lan'er seemed to understand the meaning in my eyes, and said: "Don't worry, we are nearby and we won't go far. Sister Jian'er, follow us too."
Bai Jian shook his head, and said: "I'd better follow my mother." After saying that, she also walked into the shop, and I hurriedly dragged Mo Yue in to follow.
The jewelry store is furnished in an old-fashioned way, and it looks like it has been around for a while.
As soon as I entered the jewelry store, I saw a familiar figure. He just turned around, and it was too late for me to dodge. This acquaintance was the Riva I least wanted to see.
Riva was also taken aback when he saw me, and I said bravely, "What a coincidence, Senior Riva is not stationed at Fort Stru, why did he come here?"
Riva looked us up and down, and said, "Brother Lei Xiang, why are you here? Have you been here these days?" There was some doubt in his eyes, and his face was strange.
I was startled, it seemed that he really suspected us, and hurriedly said: "We have just arrived here, and we have been wandering around for the past few days."
Riva looked at me suspiciously, sighed, and said, "You don't know, something happened to the fort. Two demons raided the fort, causing us great losses."
I groaned and said, "Then, did the enemy catch it?"
Riva kept his eyes on my face, shook his head and said, "I didn't get caught, they ran away. Those two demons are very powerful, a man and a woman, and their figure is somewhat similar to yours."
I said calmly: "When did the demons become so powerful that even you dragon knights couldn't catch them. So where are you going?"
My mother and Bai Jian only glanced over here when they heard our conversation, but didn't come over. I feel a little more at ease in my heart.
Seeing that there were no flaws in me, Riva sighed and said: "Such a big thing happened, of course I have to report to the higher authorities. My father sent me to the capital to report the situation. I passed by here, and I asked Chi Yan to wait outside the city. Wait for me, buy something here and give it to Ziyan when I go back, I hope she can accept me."
As soon as Zi Yan was mentioned, Riva's face was full of helplessness. Chi Yan should be the name of his dragon. It seems that he hasn't given up on Zi Yan yet.
I felt that my smile was a little unnatural, and said: "Then I won't delay the senior, we are here just to have a look."
Riva nodded and said: "Then I'll go first, you can choose slowly, the things here are still very good."
I got out of the way and watched him leave the shop. I was relieved until I was sure he had really left, and I pulled Mo Yue to my mother's side.
Mother asked in a low voice: "Xiang'er, who was that person just now?"
I replied: "It's a dragon knight. I used to be a senior at Tiandu College. Her father is one of the three dragon knight generals in the empire."
The mother nodded and said, "Be careful what you say. None of us is a real human being except me. Don't be discovered." After she finished speaking, she continued to choose the jewelry in front of her.
Mo Yue sent me a voice transmission: "Husband, what did he say just now that he wanted to buy something for sister Ziyan, what is his relationship with sister Ziyan?"
I smiled wryly and said: "He is one of Ziyan's suitors. He has been pursuing Ziyan since he was in Tiandu College, but Ziyan chose me later. He didn't know about it. Alas! I will be annoying when I get to the capital, I hope he will go back and report the situation and leave quickly.”
My mother turned to me and said, "Lei Xiang, come and have a look, do these bracelets look good?"
"Ah?" I took a step forward and leaned over, only to see four bracelets in my mother's hands.
The styles of these four bracelets are almost the same, they are all emerald green, lustrous and lustrous, and they can be seen as high-quality jade at a glance.
The most peculiar thing is that there is a layer of white mist inside the emerald green bracelet. Looking at it casually, it seems that the mist is continuously flowing in the bracelet, but when you look closely, it seems to be fixed there.
I couldn't help admiring: "Mother, you have a good eye. These four bracelets are very beautiful."
The mother smiled proudly: "Of course my eyesight is better, have you forgotten that my mother used to be..." Although she was proud, the mother did not forget, and took back the word "princess" that came to her lips.
The shop owner said: "Ma'am, you have a good eye. These four bracelets are the best in our shop. They are made of rare and indigo jade. The materials we got at that time were enough for these four bracelets. In the empire, you are absolutely You can't find a better jade bracelet than this."
I asked, "How much are these four bracelets in total?"
The boss froze for a moment, and said, "Are you all going to buy it?"
Before I could open my mouth, my mother nodded and said, "Yes, I want these four bracelets. How much are they?"
The boss thought for a while, and said, "Since you buy so much at one time, I will charge less. You can give me 120,000 gold coins."
This figure not only surprised my mother, but also surprised me. It was just a few bracelets, and they were so expensive.
The boss saw the doubts in our hearts and explained: "Although the materials of these bracelets are not as precious as magic gems, they are the best jade. Because of their rarity, the price is naturally higher."
Hearing what he said, I couldn't help being a little embarrassed. Of course I want to buy things my mother likes, but they are too expensive. I split all the cards that Tanaka gave me back then, and I don't have much cash left. I want to buy them. This bracelet is just a fantasy.
But looking at my mother's appearance, she obviously wants it very much, and I have to buy it. What should I do
When I was in a dilemma, Mo Yue suddenly stuffed something into my hand, and said to me via voice transmission: "Honey, let's exchange this for some money, and buy it for my aunt."
I was taken aback, and opened my palm to see that it was the bloodstone I gave her back then. The red bloodstone shone with a strange light.
"Yue'er, how did this work, I gave it to you!"
Yue'er smiled softly, and said: "It's better to redeem it later, I know you don't have much money on you, and I didn't bring any money when I came out from the demon clan, so I had to sell it first."
I was moved in my heart, and I had no choice but to do this in order to satisfy my mother's wish, so I sent her a voice transmission: "My dear moon, I will definitely give you a better one in the future."
Mother didn't hear my voice for a long time, she turned her head and said, "Xiang'er, don't you have enough money?"
I was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Enough, enough." Then, I took out the bloodstone, handed it to the boss and said, "Boss, let's see how much this is worth. I don't have much cash on me. This is mortgaged to you, exchange for some money, and I will redeem it when I come back next time."
The boss took the bloodstone in my hand, looked at it in surprise, shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, sir, I can't exchange this for you."
I asked in surprise, "Why?"
The boss smiled wryly: "If I'm not mistaken, this should be the best bloodstone. It's so precious. I think you know its price. How can a small shop like ours afford it."
I frowned and said, "But, I don't have any cash with me now. If you can't accept this, I won't be able to buy your bracelet."
At this moment, a clear voice came from a room behind the shop: "Shopkeeper Tong, what are you not allowed to accept? Let me have a look."
The door curtain was raised, and a tall and straight figure appeared in our line of sight. Seeing this person, I couldn't help being taken aback, and said, "Brother Tian, why is it you?"
The person who came out was exactly Tanaka who lost 80 million gold coins to me back then. He was dressed in white. From his temperament, I found that his skill has really improved a lot during this time.
The shopkeeper said respectfully: "Boss, take a look." He said and handed over the bloodstone in his hand.
Tian Zhong subconsciously took it over, smiled at me and said, "So it's Brother Lei, having you in the store really makes my place flourish."
Mo Yue said to me, "You guys know each other."
I nodded and said, "Brother Tian and I are old friends." Back then, I admired Tanaka's upright behavior.
Tian Zhong looked at Mo Yue, and said in surprise: "Brother Lei, you can do it, and you have a beautiful confidante again, alas! My younger brother is not ugly, but no one likes me."
When Mo Yue heard what he said, she pinched me hard and snorted dissatisfied.
I said to Tian Zhong with a bitter face: "Brother Tian, don't harm me, how did you become the boss here?"
Tanaka laughed, and said: "This is my family's property. I am not as good as my elder brother in politics, so I have no choice but to take over these chain jewelry stores, and I can barely make ends meet. Brother Lei, why are you trading bloodstones for money again?" , Didn’t I just lose so much to you last time? Didn’t I spend all of it?”
I shook my head and said, "Where is it that can be spent so quickly, it's just distributed to others. Brother Tian, this is my mother."
Tanaka was startled, and hurriedly saluted his mother, "Hello, Auntie, I'm really neglecting you. Come on, please come in and have some tea."
I said to my mother: "Mom, this Brother Tian is a very nice person, he is a friend I met not long ago."
Mother nodded and smiled at Tanaka, "Hello."
At Tanaka's kind invitation, we followed him into the back hall. After he served the servants tea, he asked why I exchanged bloodstones for money.
I replied: "Mom has taken a fancy to your four bracelets, and I want to buy them with bloodstones. Brother Tian, I know you have money, so I'll buy them. I can give you a cheaper price."
Tanaka smiled wryly and said: "Little brother, I lost that little savings to you a long time ago. How can I get so much money? Now my eldest brother is still chasing me for debts? Otherwise, I would not hide here. How about it, Those bracelets are considered as a meeting gift for my aunt, and you don't have to sell the bloodstone anymore."
He is also too generous, that is hundreds of thousands of gold coins.
The mother said: "How can we do it? You are also in business. How can we have a gift for nothing?"
Tanaka said with a smile: "Auntie, don't be polite to me. With my relationship with Brother Lei, this is nothing. Just accept it."
I said: "Brother Tian, how about this, we are going to the capital on this trip, I accept these bracelets, but the money must be given, even if I owe you first, I will give it to you when I return. "
Tanaka sighed: "You, don't let me show it. Well, it's up to you."
I picked up four bracelets from the table and handed them to my mother, saying: "Mom, please put them away."
The mother smiled and took out one of them, and said to Mo Yue, "Yue'er, come here."
Mo Yue was taken aback, walked over, and said, "Auntie."
The mother took Mo Yue's little hand, put the bracelet on, and said, "Auntie doesn't have anything good, so this should be my betrothal gift for you."
When she heard that it was a betrothal gift, Mo Yue was not polite, and said: "Thank you, Auntie." Playing with the bracelet happily.
The mother took out another one, and said to Bai Jian: "Jianer, this mother gave it to you. You have called me mother for so long, and I haven't given you anything yet."
Bai Jian was taken aback for a moment, then glanced at me, quickly lowered his head, and said, "Mother, this is too expensive, I can't accept it."
The mother feigned anger and said: "What can't be accepted, I am your mother, I can do it if I say so." Then, she took Bai Jian's hand and brought it up for her.
Seeing my mother's actions, I couldn't help being a little dazed, what is she doing? Could it be that she wants to match me and Bai Jian
I shook my head, trying to shake the thought out.
Tanaka said to me, "Brother Lei, I'm going to the capital in a few days, how long will you stay there?"
I thought for a while and said, "I should stay for a while. If you go early, you will definitely meet me. I should be in Duke Zifeng's mansion."
The mother said to Tanaka: "I'll call you a good nephew, thank you for giving us this bracelet on credit, we should settle down in the capital, and you are welcome to come and play at home. It's getting late, we have to go .”
Tanaka quickly stood up and said, "Auntie, don't be polite to me. If it wasn't for Brother Lei, I wouldn't be where I am today. I'll take you out." Then, he stretched out his hand and opened the door curtain.
Mo Yue and Bai Jian supported their mother and walked ahead, while Tian Zhong and I fell behind.
I sent him a voice transmission: "Brother Tian, your skill seems to have improved a lot."
Tanaka nodded and said: "Yes, it's all thanks to your black crystal. After eating it, I feel that the meridians in my body have completely adapted to the dark element. I don't need to set aside most of my skills to protect my meridians anymore during training." , The progress during this period is too important to me."
I smiled and said, "You're welcome, this is the result of your own hard work. See you in the capital." As I spoke, I stretched out my right hand to Tanaka.
Tanaka held my hand and said, "It's my good fortune to know you, Brother Lei. I will definitely go to the capital to find you."
After leaving the jewelry store, I looked around for Pan Zong and the others, but none of the three live treasures were there. Mo Yue said, "Brother, where did they go? Didn't they say they couldn't go far?"
I said to Mo Yue: "You accompany mother back to the hotel first, and I will look for it later." Only when Mo Yue is protecting her by her side can I rest assured.
Mo Yue understood my intentions, and together with Bai Jian protected her mother and left.
I stood on the street and looked around. The surrounding lights were still brightly lit, but there was no sign of Pan Zong and the others. I really hate and fear their ability to make trouble.
I searched carefully along the streets of the town. After crossing two streets, I found some commotion in front of me, so I ran over quickly.
Sure enough, it was Pan Zong and the others. There were a lot of people watching. Pan Zong stood in the center surrounded by seven or eight people, while Jin Yin and Lan'er watched from the side. What did you do
Just listen to Pan Zongdao: "Do you think you can bully people just because you have a lot of people? Hmph, I'm in a good mood today, get out immediately, otherwise I'll let you guys know how powerful I am."
When the other party heard what he said, they immediately roared with laughter. The leader was a man who was not tall and thin and said: "Wow, there are so many of us, are you still afraid of you as a country bumpkin? I want to see, you What's so great about it?"
Pan Zong was furious, and was about to make a move, so I hurried over, grabbed his arm, and said, "Brother, what's going on?"
When Pan Zong saw me, he softened immediately and said, "The three of us were eating over there just now, and these guys flirted with Sister Lan'er just now, and even made a fuss about it. We didn't take the initiative to cause trouble this time."
I turned my head to look at Lan'er, only to see that she was acting innocent, Lan'er was indeed beautiful and had a proud figure, no wonder these little eunuchs molested her.
I turned my head and said to the other party: "In broad daylight, you actually molested women from good families, isn't there any law for you?"
The skinny man looked at the sky and said, "What the hell is it in broad daylight? Didn't you see that it's night? I'm a law-abiding citizen. It was the little girl who seduced us but said we were molesting her. You don't say anything today." Clearly, no one wants to leave."
What else can I say to this kind of nonsense people, and I think I will dirty my mouth if I talk nonsense with them. I said to Lan'er and Jinyin: "Let's go."
Lan'er walked up to me, leaned up and hugged my arm, and said, "Aren't you going to vent your anger on others?"
There was an astonishing elasticity in her chest, which made me feel embarrassed. I hurriedly broke away and said, "Didn't I tell you not to cause trouble? Go away."
The skinny man stretched out his hand in front of us in a very ignorant manner, and said, "Want to leave? It's not that easy. The uncle has spent so long here, you must make up for it?"
I was furious in my heart, and said coldly: "Compensation? What compensation do you want?"
Looking at my majestic body, the thin man couldn't help but took a step back, and said, "You leave this girl behind, and kowtow to me, and the rest of you can leave."
I snorted coldly and said, "Then, you still want to rob a woman from a good family. It depends on whether you have the ability?"
The skinny man scolded: "Okay, since you don't want to drink a toast, I'll let you know how powerful the uncle is. Little ones, give it to me."
Under his call, seven or eight of his subordinates rushed forward immediately. Their reckless performance made me feel like laughing, and with a wave of their hand, a strong force enveloped them.
"Go." I threw everyone out, including the skinny guy. I don't want to kill people and cause trouble, the power I use is just to break a few bones of them.
Amidst a burst of cries of pain, I pulled Lan'er and Jinyin out of the crowd, and quickly returned to the hotel.
It's true that they can't blame them for this matter, and I didn't say anything else.
Mo Yue told me that my mother was a little tired and had already rested.
I blocked Lan'er who was about to go back to the room, and said: "Sister Lan'er, starting tomorrow, you have to wear a bamboo hat like sister Jian'er. If something like today happens again, I will..."
Lan'er said impatiently: "Got it, got it." After speaking, she turned her head and entered the room.
I really have nothing to do with her, Mo Yue put her arms around my neck, kissed me on the cheek, and said: "Honey, I'm going back too, you should rest early."
We didn't talk all night, and the next morning, we continued our journey. Fortunately, Lan'er really listened to me and put on the bamboo hat, and nothing happened along the way.
It has been a full month since we entered the territory of the Dragon God Empire, and before our eyes, we finally saw the long-lost capital of the Dragon God Empire.
My mother seems to have always been reluctant to come to the capital, and would stay in a big city for a few days every time she arrived. If I hadn't urged me repeatedly, I'm afraid she would still be on her way now.
Mother, are you running away? What's the use of running away? Don't you want to see Duke Zifeng
Looking at the majestic city wall, my mother's expression was a little dull, and I said softly, "Mom, let's go into the city. If you don't want to see Duke Zifeng, I will never force you, okay?"
My mother nodded silently, and said: "When I was in the beastman country, I thought about returning here all the time, thinking about Afeng all the time, but I could see him soon, I, alas! I was a little panicked, Boy, I really don't have the courage to meet him."
I said: "It doesn't matter, you just came here, it's normal for you to be unable to accept it for a while, let's settle down first, and we will discuss the matter with the Duke later."
My mother glanced at me. She looked like a bride-to-be, 70% nervous and 30% excited. Although I couldn't fully understand her mood, I understood her embarrassment.
Entering the capital of the Dragon God, a few students wearing the uniforms of Tiandu Academy just walked up to them. They were talking and laughing, as if they were about to leave the city. Seeing them, I couldn't help but think of the days when I was in Tiandu Academy. Show a smile.
Lan'er said: "Why are you smirking? I'm hungry, let's find a place to eat first."
I gave her a blank look, and said: "You ate more than all of us combined, eat more, be careful not to become a big fat dragon."
My mother glared at me and said, "Xiang'er, be careful what you say, she's a girl."
"It's just that I'm a little older." Pan Zong, who was walking beside Lan'er, muttered.
Lan'er has sharp ears, so of course she heard it, she grabbed Pan Zong's ear with one hand, and said angrily, "What did you say?"
Pan Zong quickly argued: "It's nothing, it's nothing, I mean I'm too old, I can't walk anymore, I want to find a place to rest and eat quickly."
Lan'er let go of her hand in satisfaction, and said, "It's not too bad."
We found a hotel not far from the city and stayed.
Besides her mother, Yue'er seemed to be very worried. After dinner, I called her out: "Yue'er, what's wrong with you, you've always been depressed these days, is it because you're about to see Ziyan and the others?" gone."
Mo Yue nodded: "Well, I don't know if Sister Zi Yan and the others can accept me?"
I hugged her into my arms and said: "Of course I will accept you, Yue'er is so cute, and Ziyan and the others are also good girls, they will definitely accept you."
Mo Yue lowered her head and did not speak, obviously still not at ease.
"Hey, don't think too much, go back to the room and rest first, let's go to the Duke's mansion to see them tonight, okay?"
It's not that I don't want to visit directly, but it's mainly because I've been missing for too long, and I'm afraid that others will be too surprised.
Besides, Riva has already returned to the capital. I don't know if he has left now. It will be difficult to meet him in the duke's mansion.
Zi Yan doesn't have as many scruples as I do, maybe she will fall out on the spot.
Moreover, all I want to see now is sister Zi Yan, and I am not in a hurry to see the duke. When I left, I promised him that I would bring my mother with me when I came back, but now my mother is not ready to see him, so let him wait a little longer. wait.
Startled, Mo Yue raised her head and said, "Should I go too?"
I smiled and said: "Of course, you want to go with me, you will always meet, don't you want to escape?"
"Honey, I'm really scared. I'm afraid they won't accept me. If you don't want me, that month will..."
I kissed her on the forehead and promised: "Don't worry, this kind of thing will never happen. I have the same feelings for the three of you now, and I can't do without anyone." Send Mo Yue to the door of her own room.
"Go, go back and rest."
Mo Yue nodded, opened the door and walked in. Just as I turned around and wanted to go back to my room, Mo Yue suddenly jumped out of the room again, two lines of tears flowed down, and threw herself into my arms, choking and saying: " Husband, if you hug me again, I..."
I held her in my arms and quietly comforted her restless heart.
After a long time, Mo Yue got up from me and said, "I'm going to rest."
Although she said so, she didn't look like she wanted to leave.
I smiled slightly and said, "Silly girl, don't do this, I won't run away again."
Mo Yue pursed her lips, and then she went back to her room with great reluctance.
Back in his room, Panzong and Jinyin were both lying down and taking a nap, they really knew how to take care of themselves.
I'm used to sleeping on the floor, lying on the mat and looking up at the ceiling, my current mood is completely opposite to that of Yue'er, I even want to see Ziyan and Zixue immediately, as soon as I enter the capital, I find that I am very interested Their longing has reached an irrepressible level.
