Chapter 18 Daily life in Kapok Town 4

After Ji Jingrui answered, he looked down at the bamboo slips in his hand again, wondering if he should improve the bamboo slips?This kind of bamboo slip that can only show the name and race is too crude, but the big improvement is not enough for his current ability. Well, after a few years, the bamboo slip must be improved, so that it will be easier to manage.

If it was the City God in the past, the population and non-human species in a region would have been handed over to the City God for management. Unlike now, Jing would have to work hard to collect and log...

— Strange, he seems to be very clear about some things in the underworld in the past?

Ji Jingrui tilted his head calmly to look at Gu Youjing who had already turned to look at the Xuanguang mirror with great interest. Something that popped up in his mind was his missing memory?

However, that doesn't matter.

Ji Jingrui continued to look down at the bamboo slips. The important thing is that Jing is by his side.

Soon, the empty old house next to the Gu's house was bought. Afterwards, a decoration team began to enter and leave Thirteenth Street, knocking down the old house, shoveling soil, laying foundations and so on.

On this day, Gu Youjing was squatting on the steps in front of his house with a spoon in his hand. Ji Jingrui was sitting upright beside him, holding a half-dug watermelon in his hand. Gu Youjing looked at the neighbor next door. At the busy construction site, he used a spoon from time to time to dig a spoonful or two out of the big watermelon that Ji Jingrui was holding beside him.

On the other side of the construction site, Gu Zhen, who was talking about the magic circle with Zhou Yun, caught a glimpse of Gu Youjing's lazy and undisciplined appearance, and couldn't help but twitch his mouth, especially when he saw the watermelon that Ji Jingrui was holding from his side with his natural and smooth movements. Dig into the watermelon to eat, with a circle of watermelon juice around the mouth.

Gu Zhen put his forehead in his heart and sighed, with such a loose appearance, how did he become the City God?

——Three days ago, he learned from the old monk Juehui that the fundamental reason why these ascetics appeared in Mumian Town was that they received a message that the messengers of the underworld were in contact with the special security department of the country, and it seemed that they were the same as their ascetics. It didn't matter, so they followed the security department.

Hearing the underworld at that time, the first thing Gu Zhen thought of was the impermanence of black and white back then!He knew that Xiaojing had been related to people in the underworld to some extent over the years, so he asked Xiaojing.

That day, he asked, "Xiaojing, have you seen black and white impermanence recently?"

"Yes, I have."

"Oh...then did they say anything?"

"Yes, they told me that the underworld sent sword ghosts to explore the world, and they plan to contact and cooperate with the special national security department."

"...How do you know so clearly? What did they tell you?"

"Yes. Of course, I am the City God."

"... City God?"

"Well, Lord Chenghuang?"

"...is that, that... the city god who manages the affairs of the underworld in a certain place?"

"Huh? It's almost that kind."

……

——What do you think people in the underworld are thinking?Let a ten-year-old child be the city god of the place? !

Even if Xiaojing inherited their Gu family's "Fuxi Tianshu", even if Xiaojing was talented and sensible, he couldn't just let a ten-year-old child be the city god!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help sighing again.But the matter was already like this, and he could only think about how to help the two children, but when asked about the specifics, Xiaojing didn't say anything, only that it should not be known.

He didn't want to ask again, thinking that now he can only help in the affairs of the world, he must protect Xiaojing's identity, and to make Xiaojing's life in the world go smoothly, so he appeared here , when Zhou Yun came to their Gu's house to wander around from time to time, he simply came out.

"You want to get the same magic circle?" Gu Zhen looked at Zhou Yun with a calm expression on his face, but he became vigilant in his heart.Want to get the same magic circle as the Gu family?What does Zhou Yun want to do this week?

Their Gu family's magic circle came from their Gu family's "Fuxi Tianshu"!

Zhou Yun looked at Gu Zhen with vigilant eyes, and quickly explained, "Don't get me wrong, I just want to ask Brother Dao to help install such a magic circle for the Ji family. It doesn't need to be exactly the same, but I just like it to have the same protective effect. Brother Dao also I know that the loss of the Ji family's child was definitely not accidental, someone was watching the Ji family, and now that the old man of the Ji family is going to settle here, I have to trouble Brother Dao for this safety issue."

Gu Zhen was taken aback, "The old man of the Ji family? Isn't it Ji Xiu?"

Zhou Yun said with a smile, "Brother Ji is busy with work, so it is impossible to stay in Mumian Town all the time."

Gu Zhen frowned, thinking about it carefully, it should be like this, Gu Zhen looked at the busy scene, and after a while, he said, "Well, I will make this magic circle, but Zhou Yun, you have to help .”

Zhou Yun smiled, nodded and said, "If Brother Dao can trust me."

"Of course I believe you, the young master of the Zhou family, the direct disciple of Daoist Yihang." Gu Zhen said lightly.

Gu Youjing on the steps of Gu's house scratched his ears, pulled out a small ball of cotton, flicked his fingers, and without anyone noticing, the cotton disappeared.

—Tsk, that Zhou Yun is the disciple of Daoist Yihang, no wonder he looks familiar, it turned out that he was the one who entertained him on behalf of Daoist in his previous life.

It's been too long, and it's just a few acquaintances. Forgive him for his poor memory.

Ji Jingrui also took out the cotton balls in his ears, squeezed them casually, and the cotton balls dissipated into the air. There are many interesting little things in Jing, such as Xuanguang mirror, cotton balls that can be squeezed out with magic power to eavesdrop, and covers The spiritual power map of Mumian Town, any door that can be directly reached as long as the place is marked, etc.

He remembered that Qingqiu asked Jing curiously, how did these little things come up with?At that time, Jing said very earnestly - "My child, knowledge is power, you need to read more, my child."

Qingqiu's face seemed to be distorted at that time.

"Jing, let's go back and do our homework." Ji Jingrui said, he had no interest in the Ji family who was coming.

But since Kyung wants him to get along well with Ji's family, then he'll do it.

——As long as he doesn't want to be separated from Jing, as long as Jing wishes, he will do it.

It feels like a long, long time ago, it was the same way, he was hoping like this, what is he hoping for?

...can't remember.

"Oh." Gu Youjing snorted, then turned his head and stared, "Are you still writing?" The content of the third grade of elementary school is very simple, he has finished it, Xiao Rui has started to learn the content of junior high school with his father, what now They all finished their homework at school, and the homework that Xiaorui said must be another practice problem that his father threw to Xiaorui!

——He was not a good student in his previous life, was he?

Ji Jingrui nodded, pulled up Gu Youjing who was squatting on the steps with a gloomy face and refused to get up, and said, "Jing, finish writing early, and we can go play."

"I don't want to write!" Gu Youjing dawdled and refused to leave.He never planned to be a child prodigy in his life!

Ji Jingrui stared at Gu Youjing, just staring at him without speaking.

"..."

After a while, Gu Youjing raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, and said weakly, "Okay, I'll go..."

Only then did Ji Jingrui turn his eyes in satisfaction, clasped Gu Youjing's fingers, held the unfinished watermelon in one hand, and walked back home slowly.

This scene naturally fell into the eyes of Gu Zhen and Zhou Yun who were on the construction site nearby.

Gu Zhen began to worry about the residents and non-human beings in Mumian Town, and that lazy-looking child turned out to be the city god of this place!

Zhou Yun thought it was interesting. Before Ji Xiu rushed back to pick up the old man, he had told him to observe carefully the child of the Gu family whom Xiao Rui relied on so much. According to his observations in the past few days, this child is really cute and interesting.

——Also, rather than saying that Xiaorui is dependent on the child of the Gu family, it is better to say that the two children restrain and depend on each other.

Look, Xiao Jing doesn't like to do homework anymore, so Xiao Rui silently suppressed him with his eyes, and in the end, didn't he write obediently?Especially when eating...

"Brother, Mr. Zhou, it's time to eat."

Zhou Yun and Gu Zhen responded, and walked over. Recently, Zhou Yun's dinner and lunch were settled at Gu's house.

After solving the matter of the soul-hunting bell, Zhou Yun was entrusted by Ji Xiu with the responsibility of supervising the work, so at noon and evening, Zhou Yun was called to have dinner by the enthusiastic mother Gu.

After confirming that her little Rui would not be forcibly taken away, Gu's mother finally resolved her knot and became enthusiastic towards Zhou Yun and the others.

The Gu family didn't pay much attention when eating, they talked, ate, and laughed.

Therefore, Zhou Yun held his job and looked at Gu Youjing and Ji Jingrui sitting opposite him——

"Jing, eat fish."

"I don't eat fish!"

"I've finished picking out the fish bones...Jing, picky eaters won't grow up..."

"……All right."

"Eat! Braised pork! It's delicious!"

"Jing... this is not braised pork."

"It's obviously braised pork!"

"Jing, where's the meat?" Why is there only skin?

"Oh, that's braised skin, it's also delicious. Well, eat it quickly!"

"..."

"Pfft!" Zhou Yun finally couldn't help laughing out loud.

Gu Zhen looked at the innocent and dazed Gu Youjing, and couldn't bear it anymore, "Xiaojing! Don't give Xiaorui what you don't want to eat!"

Gu Youjing was taken aback for a moment, then turned to look at Ji Jingrui seriously, and asked seriously, "Xiao Rui, don't you like braised pork?"

Ji Jingrui was silently gnawing on the braised pork. After hearing this, he looked up at Gu Youjing, then turned to look at Gu Zhen, and said seriously, "Uncle, I like braised pork."

When Gu Youjing heard this, he was satisfied, and put the braised skin he had just bitten off into Ji Jingrui's bowl, and said happily, "Then eat it quickly."

Ji Jingrui hummed, picked it up, and continued to nibble slowly.

Gu Zhen, Gu Xun, Lin Xiuyun, and Zhou Yun at the dining table were all silent.
