0231_ boiled beef

This middle-aged woman is Ji Zuo's mother...

Hey, Ji's mother is here, so who is cooking in her family now?Ji's father?Or Ji Zuo?Or Ji Zuo's boyfriend who will never have a chance?By the way, are Ji Zuo and her boyfriend in this house now?

Forget it, it doesn't matter.I put my attention on the few young people approaching with hippie smiles under Ji's mother's stare. Although their expressions are a bit sloppy, their clothes are clean, their hairstyles are refreshing, and there are no weird tattoos on their exposed skin. , It doesn't look like a professional hooligan, more like a second-year middle school student.

"Go away, go away," Ji's mother chased away, "don't scare the girl."

"How could it be?" A young man smiled and said, "We are here to help. Aunt Ji came out at this time because there is a temporary lack of seasoning at home? Go buy it, and the food will be fried in a while. What about this sister? Whoever she is looking for, we will definitely send her to the door. Don't worry, Aunt Ji, we promise to complete the task. "

I interrupted: "I'm not looking for anyone, I just passed by."

There was silence for a few seconds.

Afterwards, Mother Ji's expression became more protective, and she stood in front of me, with her hips on her hips, and yelled at the young men, "Go away, see what you are like, and you'd be ashamed to hook up with girls!"

A head poked out from the open window of Ji Zuo's house, Ji's father was wondering with a cigarette in his mouth: "Didn't you go to buy dried chili? Why are you still here? What are you yelling at?"

Ji's mother patted me: "It's too dangerous for you to be here alone. Go to my house and sit down. I'll buy some dried peppers and we'll talk again. Today we eat boiled beef at home."

I wanted to retreat as an advance, when I heard the boiled beef, I thought about how many days I had been eating Bigu Dan, and asked, "Is it spicy?"

Ji's mother choked with laughter: "Why are you like my Ji Zuo? Girls eat too spicy is not good for the skin, but it is really spicy."

"That's annoying." I said.

"Hey," the young men came to their senses, "Sisters want spicy food? Let me invite you, the most authentic restaurant, let's go now."

As she said that, she was about to pull me, Ji's mother slapped away a few hands, but there were many people on the other side, and a few of them crossed the line of defense.I squeezed the nearest one before those hands touched me, flipped my wrist, followed by a howl, then flipped and pushed my hand again, and let go of the one I was holding.The owner of the hand held his hand, looked at me in horror, and retreated tremblingly.

"Why, what's the matter?" Another young man asked in a weak voice with fright.

I answered him: "I have practiced." As I spoke, I took out a palm-sized box from my backpack and put the electric car in it.

Everyone looked at me even more horrified.

"Are you... an immortal?" Ji's mother asked dully.

I didn't open my mouth to answer, but just took out a few more shiny stones from the box and showed her.

Ji's mother saw that my eyes had changed into grief, and she said: "I'm away from home, I'm not at all wary, you go to my house and stay there." While talking, she pushed me into her house, and then turned to warn the girl. Several young people:

"Stop talking nonsense everywhere!"

Those young people responded in a low voice:

"No, how can we add competitors to ourselves?"

"Yeah, just us are too many. There is only one Bai Fumei."

"Be careful," said the young man whose wrist I had just dislocated and put back on. "I don't think I can bear it anyway. The pain just now was extremely painful."

"Go, go, it's normal for Bai Fumei to have a temper and know how to use self-defense techniques. It's a big fuss."

"No, you didn't see her eyes just now..."

"There is no need to explain. We are too happy to lose one competitor. It doesn't matter what reason we quit."

Tsk, who said killing chickens and monkeys is easy to use?Who cares if it hurts someone else.Forget it, the important thing now is that I can smell the aroma of beef very close, but the spiciness is not enough.Mother Ji, don't be interrupted so much that you forget to dry the chili.

0233_potential rival

For my sudden entry, Ji's father was very kind.He has seen what happened outside just now. Although he may not have heard what was said outside due to the distance, at least he knows that I was pushed in by Mother Ji.

"Sit down first," Ji's father said, "the grocery store is just around the corner, and you'll be back in a few minutes."

Hey, do you still remember to buy dried chilies?What a reliable housewife.

Ji Zuo is also at home, but compared to the enthusiastic mother Ji and the kind father Ji, her attitude is colder. She just looked at me for a while, and then went into the kitchen again - she is the master of the meal - of course Compared with Ji Zuo's indifference, my cold face is not much better. I wonder how Ji's parents became warm and kind to my cold face.

"I'm sorry, she's rather shy." Ji's father said.

I can tell the difference between being shy and afraid to talk and being too lazy to talk to irrelevant people, but facing the kindness of others, I still nodded and said, "I interrupted."

During dinner, Ji's mother asked me where I was going, and once again strongly expressed her opposition to me, a girl who looked so insecure, walking around alone without a clear destination.

Me: "I still have the ability to protect myself."

Mother Ji: "So what if you know two hands? So what if you have a magic weapon? Do you know how many bad guys there are? Do you know that the bad guys have multiple tricks?"

Then do you know how many magic weapons I have? ——Ordinary people can't tell the difference between magic tools and spirit treasures, etc. They usually call these all magic weapons.

"Mom," Ji Zuo said, "don't interfere too much with others. You don't know them well, how do you know they can't protect themselves?"

It sounded like she was speaking for me, but this girl Ji didn't even glance at me out of the corner of her eye—who told me that dressing up as a woman would make it easier to get closer to Ji Zuo?

Ji's mother glared at Ji Zuo: "I'm annoying again. What does it matter if we just met? Don't you understand if you talk more?"

Ji Zuo: "How do you know that others are willing to tell you anything? Ask around. Respect other people's privacy."

Miss Ji still didn't look at me when she spoke.How can this be defensive? In fact, it is the loss of basic aesthetics?

Wait, I'm female now, and Ji Zuo's sexuality is male, so I'm actually her potential rival.Ah, yes, thinking about it this way, she should have rejected me from the very first moment she saw me.So is this mission instruction really okay?I think it is easier for me to gain her trust as a man?

No, even as a male, my appearance is still enough to be her rival in love. After all, the person she likes may not be a complete heterosexual - bisexuals still account for the majority in this world.

0234_ fooling around

After the meal, I gave a few Lingzhu to Mother Ji. I thought it was food money, but what I said was: "Small gift."

Ji's mother has a headache expression on her face.The mortal world has the currency of the mortal world, but this does not mean that they do not know the currency of the cultivation world, just like it is impossible for monks to know nothing about the currency of the mortal world.

In comparison, the physical currency in the mortal world is updated frequently, various anti-counterfeiting changes are frequent, and electronic currency is also certified with a lot of precautions. However, the currency in the cultivation world has only been Lingshi and Lingzhu for tens of thousands of years.Although mortals can't physically perceive whether it contains spiritual power, they can still see the appearance.Stones and beads without spiritual power cannot be so beautiful and vivid.

What's more, I have taken out the magic weapon before, and it is easy to think that I have the spirit stone and the pearl that can charge the magic weapon. The storage magic weapon is like a symbol. There are many products in the mortal world that can realize the corresponding magic. The function of the device, but the portable space is a problem that they have not overcome so far.Ordinary people who want to use space props can still only buy storage bags, storage boxes, etc. produced by monks, and then match them with Lingzhu Lingshi as consumables.

In short, it is a luxury item, which is eye-catching once it is used.In particular, I also use this luxury item to install an outdated cheap electric car. How strange it looks, the cost of opening the storage box twice to get the thing is enough to buy a new one-this electric car was bought by my mother back then It's not considered high-end at all times, and she doesn't care about the high-end positioning in the mortal world, so she buys it when she sees it pleasing to the eye, and throws it in the collection after buying it.All you want is the pleasure of the buying process, not what you actually bought.

"You can't do this, it's just calling others to snatch you." Ji's mother said.

I tried to make her less worried: "My valuables are all in the storage box, and this storage box has been used as a basic defense when I got it, except for the situation where the monk wiped out the defense, only I can Open."

Ji's father: "That's not safe. What if someone kidnaps and threatens you? Others can't open your storage box, but they can force you to open it."

Oh... yes, this is also a method, but I am a little confident that I will not be persecuted in the mortal world.

Ji's mother: "Hey, you child, don't believe it. Even if you are clever and have some self-defense methods, you can't defend yourself against thieves for a thousand days. Hey, speaking of it, where are you going? Don't delay, go quickly, the best Contact over there and have someone come pick you up. It’s too unsafe for you to be alone. A girl, underage, with so many valuables, and so beautiful... oh..."

It is incredible that all the dangerous elements are satisfied without accidents, right?

Me: "I haven't decided where to go, I just ran away from home for a while."

After a moment of silence, Ji Zuo suddenly snorted.

Ji's mother glared at Ji Zuo, and then glared at me even harder: "Nonsense!"

Hmm... If I didn't know everything about myself, I'd think I'd be a fool too.I looked at Ji's mother frankly, and then said goodbye.

Ji's mother was about to jump: "You don't want to walk around at night?!"

...Well, please trust the law and order in your city. According to my preliminary investigation, the law and order here is not bad, and a vicious incident may not happen once a year.Small cities have this kind of advantage, everyone is acquaintances, but whenever outsiders appear, the whole city will stare at them, making it impossible to do anything, and although there are many frictions between neighbors, fatal ones are not easy to appear.
