"Yao Yao …" Empress Dowager Zhu stuck her head out from the kitchen, raised the bottle in her hand, and said. "There's no more soy sauce at home, go downstairs and buy a bottle."
"Ou!" Zhu Yao responded, changed her shoes, and left the room.
"Isn't this Yaoyao?" Just as he reached the staircase, an auntie walked towards him.
"Aunt Chen." Her house was in a relatively old neighborhood, surrounded by old neighbors who had lived for decades, so they were very familiar with each other.
The auntie nodded, and asked with a smile. "Yao Yao, when did you come back? How many days off? Do you have a boyfriend? When do you plan to get married? "
"Uh …" Zhu Yao had an awkward look, and changed the topic. "Aunt Chen, my mom is cooking and waiting for me to buy soy sauce. I'll talk to you when I get back."
"Oh." Only then did she nod her head and take a step back. Suddenly, she recalled something, and instructed. "Oh right, Yao Yao, you have to be careful when you head out. I just heard that there was a strange person at the entrance of the district. He was dressed in a strange outfit, and he had been standing there for an entire day."
"Thank you, Auntie Chen. I will be heading downstairs to the junk shop, nothing will happen." Zhu Yao replied, and then, she hurriedly went downstairs, afraid that Auntie Chen would stop her for a heart-to-heart talk again.
Auntie Chen faintly sighed from behind, "Sigh, youngsters nowadays! Instead of learning from the good, you insist on creating such strange things … "
Zhu Yao did not mind either, as she headed straight for the junk shop downstairs. It was currently lunchtime, yet, unexpectedly, there was a group of people gathered in the shop. She lowered her head to find the soy sauce and paid for it. However, she heard a few people at the door discussing something.
"That person can't be a bad person, right? I heard that there are madmen who often kill people outside."
"How can he be a bad person with that kind of appearance, although his clothes are a bit strange!"
"That's not necessarily true. You can't judge a book by its cover. A good-looking person can also be a bad person."
"This is a society that values appearance. As long as you have a face, anything can be forgiven."
"That person is wearing an ancient costume and doesn't speak. He's just standing there like a fool. Is he mute?"
"I don't think so. Didn't the guard, Xiao Li, say that the person is looking for someone? It's just that I don't have an access card and I don't know which building she lives in, so I'm standing at the entrance. "
"Oh? Then who is he looking for? "
"I think his surname is Yu … Yu … Yu something?"
Zhu Yao's heart trembled, as she fiercely turned to look at them. "Where's the person you're talking about?"
The few of them looked at her curiously and pointed to the right. "It's at the entrance of the estate."
Zhu Yao immediately charged out, and sprinted towards the entrance of the small district. From afar, she could see a large group of people gathered there. Everyone was pointing at the center and discussing amongst themselves. There were even people who took out their phones, and were taking photos.
In the middle of the crowd, a man in white was watching all of this coldly. His expression was ice-cold, and he forcibly created a three-meter vacuum zone around him.
The soy sauce in Zhu Yao's hand fell onto the ground, she was simply unable to believe her own eyes.
"Master …"
"Miss Zhu, you're back." The guard, Xiao Li, waved at her and followed her gaze. "Why? Do you know that weirdo?"
Zhu Yao's eyes reddened, as she nodded heavily. She raised her voice and shouted. "Master!"
"Master? What master? "A taxi driver. Xiao Li was startled. Dressed in ancient attire to pick up passengers, drivers nowadays were pretty hardworking!
Just as Xiao Li was about to clarify, Zhu Yao had already charged into the crowd, barged into the vacuum zone, and hugged onto that snow-white robe.
"Master."
The person in front of her was startled for a moment, and then instantly hugged her back tightly. A familiar voice resounded next to her ears, carrying a hint of a sigh and a sense of relief. "Yu Yao, I found you."
Even in her dreams, she had never expected that her master would come to the modern era as well. Even now, she was still a little doubtful that all of this was real. She carefully pulled his hand, touched his face, and then pulled, and then rubbed, and then …
"Yu Yao." Yu Yan pulled down her weird hand. "It's me."
"Master …" She was simply so happy that she wanted to cry, alright? She searched for Realmspirit on QQ for an entire day, but she did not know why, but that QQ number never lit up again, showing that he was offline. If not for the fact that she still had the QQ chat records, she would have suspected if she had known such an online friend, and had experienced those inconceivable things.
Regarding whether she would be able to see her master again, she was becoming more and more uncertain.
However, in the blink of an eye, he was standing right in front of her, perfectly fine.
The discussions in the surroundings grew louder, and after curiously sizing up the two of them, Zhu Yao finally regained her senses. Suddenly, she recalled that her master was definitely an unregistered resident here. In order to prevent the news from appearing tomorrow, there would be a shocking news of a man dressed in a strange outfit at the entrance of a small residential area.
She immediately changed her words. "Why did you rush over right after you finished filming? You gave me a fright. Let's go in first. "
Only then did the surrounding crowd come to a realization. So he's an actor. However, this production crew is a little too rich, right? That hairstyle, that costume, it's simply the conscience of the industry.
Zhu Yao took the opportunity to pull him, sprinted all the way back to her own house, and heavily closed the door.
"Why are you so slow?" The Empress Dowager walked out of the kitchen, holding onto a potato in her hand. However, in the instant she raised her head, it fell onto the ground with a plop.
Crap, she forgot that there were still two great gods at home.
The Empress Dowager took a deep breath, turned her head, and roared towards the living room. "Her father, hurry and come! Yao Yao brought a man back!"
"What!?" A cry of surprise resounded from the living room. In the blink of an eye, a middle-aged man rushed out with a broom in hand, emitting a murderous aura.
Zhu Yao: "…"
"Dad …" Are they going to fight?
"What are you doing?" Empress Dowager Yang had already snatched the broom from his hands, and glared at him. "Yao Yao only brought a man back after twenty-eight years, what if he ran away in fright?" As she said that, she looked at her daughter with a warm expression. "Yao Yao, why did you suddenly become enlightened after a short trip out? This is?"
"Uh …" The corner of Zhu Yao's lips twitched. "Buying soy sauce, a gift!"
"What nonsense are you spouting?" The Empress Dowager raised her hand and slapped the back of her head. She then lowered her head to look at her hand. "Where's the soy sauce!?"
It just fell off!
"Forget it, hurry and come in." The Empress Dowager waved at the two of them, and passionately welcomed them in. She even picked up the potato on the ground.
She wondered if they would make it in time if they ran out now?
She wondered if every girl, when bringing their boyfriends home, would experience a tripartite interrogation. In a single meal, Madam Yang wished that she could dig out eighteen generations of information about their ancestors. The main point was that a certain master didn't have an enlightened personality, and he completely had no experience in matters like meeting parents. However, from the moment he entered the door, he could guess that the two people in front of him were his disciple's parents.
As for how to interact with his disciple's parents, his master had never taught him before.
"Mister, what's your name?" The Empress Dowager smiled with an amiable expression.
"Yu Yan." Yu Yan replied.
"Your surname is Yu, huh? This surname is very rare. Where do you work? "The Empress Dowager continued to ask.
Yu Yan blurted out. "I'm from Jade Forest Mountain …"
"Jade Forest Mountain … Industry Group!" Zhu Yao immediately interrupted. "Mom, he's engaged in a job related to nature."
"Oh!" Madam Yang nodded. "Then what do you do?"
Yu Yan replied with a serious expression. "I train in lightning …"
"Lightning … Electricity energy collection and utilization." Zhu Yao's forehead was filled with cold sweat. "Hoho, mom, it's related to the research of new energy. You haven't heard of it before."
"Oh …" As expected, Madam Yang's face was blank. It sounded rather high and mighty. "Then what's your current position in the company?"
"Position?" Yu Yan pondered for a moment. He was talking about his cultivation. "I'm currently the upper …"
"Upper … Leader!" Zhu Yao continued to interrupt. "Mom, he's very amazing. In his company, other than the boss, no one else has a higher position than him."
"I'm asking him, not you!" Madam Yang glared at her, expressing her dissatisfaction with her interrupting.
Zhu Yao wanted to cry, but no tears came out. How could she not interrupt? For someone like her master who was naturally naive, naturally adorable, and never knew what lying was, if he were to continue speaking the truth, it would be strange if he wasn't treated as a lunatic.
Hence, this dinner, ended with Zhu Yao's appropriate forceful interruption, with them asking and answering questions.
Madam Yang had also asked about his work and family in the beginning, all the way to when he was planning to get married, how many children he would have, and so on. Zhu Yao simply used the excuse that she still had a lot of work to do in the company, and pulled her master back to A City.
This time, she had no choice but to move to the new house that she had long renovated.
Student Feng Guoguo, who had been staying in the guest room for a year, suddenly thought things through, sent her a congratulatory message, and even asked with an especially serious tone. "Are you sure you don't want to go to the hospital to do a full body checkup, or do a neurological consultation or something?"
It was as though their friendship was about to end at any moment.
After busying herself for an entire day, she finally dragged her master back to his nest … Pui, she brought him home. Thinking about her job, husband, and warm bed, it was basically the peak of her life. Uh, what's wrong?
"This is the world you live in?" With the serious attitude of an academic researcher, Yu Yan sized up his disciple's little nest, and discovered many mystic tools that he had never seen before. Strangely, he completely did not sense the circulation of spiritual energy.
"Master …"
"Mn?"
"If you dismantle it again, that alarm clock will be disconnected."
Before she could even finish, the alarm clock in Yu Yan's hand, with a 'pa' sound, shattered into pieces. One after another, the gears fell from above, and rolled all over the ground.
Yu Yan: "…" He had never seen such a fragile mystic tool.
Zhu Yao: "…" Alright, she could still afford to pay for an alarm clock, as long as he didn't dismantle it …
"Master, what are you doing? Hurry and let go of that television!" That was the latest 50-inch LCD model that cost over ten thousand RMB.
That white figure blanked for a moment, and then, he slowly retracted his hand. He was simply curious as to why his disciple wanted to embed a pitch-black rock into the wall, and it looked so smooth as well. Could it be … "Is this a Glazed Rock?"
"No, that's a television?"
"What's a television?"
"A television is an information receiving terminal. The signal received from a satellite, after being transmitted over, would be restored into images and sounds."
"What's information? And what's a satellite? "
"Uh … This matter is very complicated. In any case, people first record a performance, or something that happens. Then, it would be converted into various erasure signals, and then, through the satellite, it would be transmitted to a machine like this, allowing thousands of households to see it. "
"And what's filming?"
"Uh …" Are you a hundred thousand whys?
Zhu Yao simply pressed a button on a controller, and the television instantly lit up. It was currently playing the latest episode of >.
Yu Yan stared at it for a moment, before nodding with an understanding look. "So it's a Voice Recording Rock."
"…" Why did she feel that the quality of a television that was worth tens of thousands of dollars had instantly dropped!?
"To be able to record sounds and images, if it's not a Voice Recording Rock, then what is it?"
Uh … Alright, Voice Recording Rock. Then, it shall be a Voice Recording Rock.
Then, he walked to the right. "What's this?"
"Refrigerator … No, it's a large-scale ice-type Mystic Artifact, the first rank kind."
"What about this?"
"This is a Flame Stone, third rank." — Induction Cooker.
"What's this at the side?"
"This is a second rank Mystic Artifact fused with a water-type Dirt Removal Art." — Washing Machine.
"What do you have with you?"
"This is a multi-purpose Voice Transmission Talisman." — Phone.
Only then did Yu Yan nod. "The Mystic Arts of this world, are all of such low-grade?"
"Uh … Yes." Once she learned how to smash a broken pot, she realized that the world had suddenly brightened up!
"What's on the table?"
"This one's amazing. This is a heavenly book, and it records most of the knowledge of this world." — Laptop. "Of course, there's even more entertainment information. As long as you want to understand it, you can find it inside."
"Mn." After Yu Yan was done with his curiosity, he turned around and walked back, sitting on the sofa next to her. Probably because he felt that it was too soft, he moved a little uncomfortably. Pulling up her hand, he interlocked their fingers, and firmly held onto it. "Did anything strange happen after you returned?"
Zhu Yao shook her head. "No. Oh right, master, how did you come here?"
"I don't know either." He frowned. "When your body was injured by Yue Ying's Soul Devouring Devil Formation, your master used all sorts of methods, yet, I was still unable to restrain your soul that was about to dissipate." His hand suddenly tightened, a hint of anger flashed in the center of his brows.
"Master …"
Zhu Yao called out to him, and only then did he react. Reaching out his hand, he stroked his disciple's head, and conveniently pulled her into his embrace. Only then did that restless heart of his slowly regain its calmness. "After that, the Heavenly Light of Guidance deviated from its original position, and struck your body. Your master simply remembers that there seemed to be a force that broke through the void, and the two of us were drawn into it. After that, I sensed your presence in front of that building … "
Back then, Zhu Yao had already fainted, and basically did not see the situation her master was talking about. When she regained consciousness, she was already at Guoguo's place, sitting in front of the computer just like before she transmigrated.
"Yu Yao …" As though he recalled something, he frowned and reminded her. "Before entering this place, I seemed to have heard someone apologizing to you. That voice seemed to contain the power of the Heavenly Dao … "
Apologizing? Could it be a Realm Spirit? Why was he apologizing to her?
