I didn't know how many three-inch nail Life Goddesses there were in the room. Anyway, I couldn't count them all. These little guys occupied almost every space that they could stay in, including the ceiling beams and the top of the wall clock. This room was relatively spacious and didn't have much furniture. It was originally a guest room that couldn't be used for the time being. So, Jingle naturally used this place as a guest room to receive her sisters.
My sudden appearance, of course, startled these timid little guys. They collectively fell silent for a few seconds. Then, suddenly, all the three-inch nail Life Goddesses in the room began to exclaim!
I closed my eyes and felt like I was in the market. My previous worries had finally come true. Once the number of Jingle Life Goddesses exceeded a thousand, you wouldn't be far from a nervous breakdown. They were so noisy …
"Quiet, quiet, quiet …" I waved my arms in vain, trying to calm these little guys down. In the past, when there was only one Jingle Life Goddesses, it was easy to do. The little guy's voice wouldn't be louder than a bird's chirp. But now, there were thousands of Jingle Life Goddesses in the room. My efforts were like a sneeze in a storm. Also, I discovered something even more troublesome: these little guys quickly realized that I was one of them. So, not only were they not afraid, but they also intimately approached me. I vaguely saw a few familiar faces. Maybe they were the little guys I met when I went to the God Realm and accidentally barged into the Life Goddesses' gathering. Of course, I couldn't be sure. After all, these little guys' faces were only the size of peanuts. In such a chaotic situation, I didn't have the time to distinguish who was who. By the time I reacted, I was already completely surrounded by these liberal three-inch nail goddesses. I discovered that all I could see was a field of lush green. My head, shoulders, clothes, and even my pants and feet were all hung by these little girls. I thought to myself that it was fortunate that they looked cute. Otherwise, my trypophobia alone would have been enough to kill me on the spot …
"That … Listen to me quietly …" I was still trying in vain. The little ones on my shoulders and on top of my head started to chatter. Since I was close to them, I could hear their voices in the noise. "Wahaha! "He's Jingle's big friend." "Father said to call him Your Majesty." "What does Your Majesty do?" "I don't know. It's probably a nickname." "I ate the candies he brought last time. He had a lot of candies in his pocket." "But it's not good to go through other people's pockets, right?" "Your Majesty, do you have candies? I want the Bubble Candy I ate last time! "
In that instant, there were already so many chattering sounds ringing in his ears.
At this moment, I heard Sandora's voice from downstairs. "Ah Jun? What's happening up there? I heard a sudden noise. "
I turned around stiffly like an old-fashioned robot. I didn't dare to move my arms and legs because if I wasn't careful, I'd be pinched. I knew that they were far more "robust" than they looked, but their delicate appearance made it hard for people to treat them like they were made of porcelain. I turned towards the direction of the stairs and replied loudly, "It's okay. Jingle's guest is here. You have to be mentally prepared."
As I said that, I walked towards the stairs with difficulty. Fortunately, the little ones were still sensible. The little ones hanging on my legs quickly flew away. Only then did I dare to walk forward. However, there were still two little ones on each side of my feet. They sat symmetrically on my slippers. As my feet moved up and down, I was stunned. I heard an unfamiliar voice on my shoulder shouting, "Lily, why don't you come up?"
Lily should be the name of one of the three-inch nails on my feet.
Then, another voice answered in my head, "Lily has OCD. She must be trying to be symmetrical with Mona!"
"What's OCD?"
"It's like every species you make must have an even number of bones, and you never go out when the green vines have an odd number of leaves. That's OCD — Lulu knows a lot!"
Then, I found out that the name of the other three-inch nail on my foot was Mona. Both she and Lily had symmetrical obsessive-compulsive disorder. I knew that this bunch of brats would never be quiet as long as they thought they had found a topic. I knew that they would always have a new topic, so I would soon have a nervous breakdown. I knew that my current appearance must be very strange, because …
Because when I went downstairs to the living room, even with Sandora's calmness, she was dumbfounded.
"Ah Jun, you look like a treant." Sandora stuck out her tongue. "You have leaves all over your body."
"Say, when are you guys planning on coming down?" I tilted my head and said to the little one on my shoulder, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Actually, I know that these three inch nails aren't completely ignorant naughty brats — — no matter what, they have the name of a goddess, how could they not understand the rules? The current situation was just the little brats' natural playful personality causing mischief. They were pretty much done messing around by now, so I shrugged. "I have to find a place to sit down. Aren't you afraid of being squeezed by the two little things hanging on my belt?"
Then, the little ones on my body laughed and scattered like a swarm of bees. Except for the two three-inch nails on my feet with symmetrical OCD. They were already dazed from the bumpy ride. If they were optimistic, they were probably still immersed in the four-four beat.
I was overjoyed. I bent down to grab the two little ones and put them on the coffee table. Then, they took turns jumping on the spot. Reality proved that even immortals would get confused after sitting on a train for a long time.
However, I reckoned that Jingle's resistance to being confused was higher than her sisters. Every now and then, I would shake the little one in a big cup of water … wash her. At first, when she was released, she had to spin around on the table for a minute before she could find her bearings. Now, she only needed to shake for two seconds before she could pounce and bite people. Obviously, the little one had been tempered to the point where she could stay in the eye of a storm for two days without batting an eyelid … Well, this is a digression.
Speaking of Dingdang, I began to search for that familiar little figure in the middle of a group of Three Inch Nails because I seemed to have heard Dingdang's chirping voice in the middle of a group of Palm Goddesses. However, this quest was actually quite difficult because this group of little fellows were really too small and they especially liked to gather together, even piling on top of each other like a human pyramid. Every one of them also liked to wear the same color of clothes. In an instant, Dingdang was lost among her sisters — — Thus, I could only take off the little ones on my body and call out to my Palm Goddess's name, "Dingdang, where are you?"
I felt my fingers being hugged tightly, "Jingle is in your hand! Ah Jun, why did you throw Jingle out! "
I looked down and found that the familiar little one in my hand was my own Jingle — the little one that I had taken off my head and was about to put aside a second ago, "… I didn't notice!"
"Pay attention to the order. Pay attention to your manners. Pay attention to what the goddess told you before we set off!"
At this time, someone among the group of little ones finally came out to maintain the situation. A little fellow who looked slightly more mature than the other Three-Inch Nail flew to the highest point and shouted to the other little ones. The group of little ones quickly landed on the sofa, the coffee table, the floor, and the cabinet not far away in my house. Silence slowly returned. The three-inch nail who flew at the highest point had a head of neat shoulder-length hair. Her eyes were very big — relative to her overall size — which made her look very majestic. She looked at her sisters and nodded in satisfaction, "Very good. This is the first time everyone is visiting Jingle's new home. You must not cause trouble for others. Bell, don't keep eating other people's fruits. You need to control your appetite!"
"Uh, it's okay," I quickly waved my hand at the majestic three-inch nail in the air, "In this home, appetite is the only thing that doesn't need to be controlled." As I said that, I faintly glanced at Sandora and thought to myself, The main reason is that this kind of topic will cause a lot of psychological damage to Her Majesty, and when her psychological damage reaches a certain level, it will cause physical damage to you …
"Greetings, Your Majesty!" The group of three-inch nails greeted me with a joyous and joyous mood. Then, they turned to Sandora, "Greetings, Big Sister Emperor, Your Majesty!"
"Should we call Big Sister Emperor?"
"Mona thinks that Big Sister Emperor should be fine."
"How about Big Sister Emperor? Hmm, that sounds reasonable … "
"Bell thinks that Big Sister Emperor should be called Big Sister Emperor!"
"Bell, you're too stupid. Don't say anything — — Rachel thinks that Big Sister Emperor should be called Big Sister Emperor! She's a big sister anyway! A very, very big one! "
I also realized that when this group of three-inch nails gathered together, they really liked to discuss things. They could discuss any topic enthusiastically, and would instantly forget about the matter in front of them.
However, I didn't find it annoying at all. Sandora also looked at the group with a happy smile: The irritation that we accumulated in Shadow City seemed to have disappeared with the help of this group of happy people. Usually, just one Jingle was enough to keep the whole family happy, but now we have … have …
I held Jingle in front of me, "How many people came? I think there should be over ten thousand, right? "
"Of course not," Jingle proudly stuck out her well-developed small chest, "It looks like a lot, but it's actually only around a thousand. This is the first batch to arrive, the other sisters are rushing over here …"
I thought about it and agreed. Most of the time, intuition can be wrong when it comes to numbers. Especially when such a large group of three-inch nails are gathered together, it's hard to say how accurate they can be. I grabbed Jingle and looked around. I realized that all the little ones were obediently staying about a meter away from me: To them, it was quite a distance. The little ones were either standing or sitting, and some of them were lying behind the sofa with only their little heads sticking out. Countless pairs of curious eyes were looking at us. The dignified three-inch nail landed on the coffee table in front of me, and bowed in a dignified manner, "Dou Dou says hello to you! Dou Dou is the oldest sister here, so she's the leader! I'm very happy to be a guest at Your Majesty's place. Big Sister Goddess had some greetings for Dou Dou to pass on to you, but she forgot, so it's gone! "
I think, the three-inch nail's dignity is only limited to this.
"Well, there's no need to be so polite. Just treat it as your own home and play as you please." I looked at the little ones. Some of them were already flying around the living room curiously. To these little ones, going under the sofa was probably an adventure. Previously, I had a slightly serious idea about the "Goddess of Life's collective diplomatic mission to the capital of the Empire" (really just a little bit). But now, not even the dregs of that serious idea were left. These little ones were here to play. You can totally treat them as naughty children who came to play at home. They are Jingle's companions first, and then the Goddess of Life second. What I need to do is to entertain thousands of naughty children. "Uh, there might not be enough space here. When all of you are here, there probably won't be enough space. Later, I will open a teleportation portal to the shadow realm for all of you. Jingle's temple is also over there …"
Based on Jingle's habits, I knew that the clingy little ones like the Goddess of Life were used to directly teleporting to the side of their friends. They called it a "humanoid beacon". Looking at the situation in front of me, Jingle should have accepted the teleportation request at home. Thus, a large group of little ones were stuffed into this house. They probably haven't seen the majestic scenery of the shadow realm yet.
However, I quickly realized that this group of little ones didn't seem to be listening to what I was saying. They had already started their own sightseeing of this huge house. The largest group was following behind Jingle. Jingle was currently introducing the situation here to her sisters:
"This is a television. Although I don't know how it works, it's very powerful!"
"This is a clock. Although I don't know what it's used for, it's very powerful!"
"This is an air conditioner. Although I don't know what it does, it's very powerful!"
"This is Ah Jun's jacket. This is where Jingle sleeps!"
That three-inch nail excitedly introduced her living environment while being surrounded by a group of sisters. Although I couldn't see the little one's expression, I could imagine her proud and arrogant expression. The group of three-inch nails followed behind Jingle and continuously exclaimed in surprise. They were filled with curiosity towards everything here, including the family's slippers and the wastepaper basket in the corner. Sandora and I looked at each other and saw a deep helplessness in each other's eyes. At this moment, the few three-inch nails that were still obediently staying by our side were running around on the coffee table. I suddenly remembered that I didn't have the time to ask where the rest of the family went. Thus, I randomly grabbed a little one and asked, "Do you know where the rest of the family went?"
"They went out to catch the other sisters!" The little one who was lifted by me continued to walk in the air for a few seconds before coming back to her senses. She said in a daze, "Because the windows were open when we came here. Jingle didn't tell everyone in time and a few of the sisters ran out!"
I instantly broke out in cold sweat, "Damn it, why didn't you say so earlier!"
"Because you didn't ask," the unfamiliar three-inch nail goddess said confidently.
I thought to myself that the thing that I was most worried about back then had actually happened so easily. The liberalism and high mobility of these little goddesses were really hard to guard against! However, just as I was about to stand up and go out to look for the others, a familiar laughter came from the courtyard — — the guys who went out to catch the goddesses had returned.
The first one who ran in was Shallow Shallow. She wore a big sunhat and carried a huge net bag on her shoulder. It was the kind of thing that children used to catch butterflies and dragonflies. She was dressed as though she had just returned from a spring outing. Behind Shallow Shallow was the group of little girls in the house. Behind them were Xiaoxue and Lin Xue, followed by the five Protoss gang and the big sister. Everyone was carrying a huge net bag on their shoulder. It was as though the whole family had gone on a spring outing. Fox and the nanny, Jill, were at the back of the group. Fox was in disguise. He probably used witchcraft to hide his big tail. On his head was a big sunhat similar to the one Shallow Shallow was wearing. The moment he entered the house, he threw the hat to the side. The ears on his head trembled as though he was suffocating.
I noticed that Fox's face had a few patches of ash and he looked a little disheveled.
"I caught them all! I caught them all!" Xiaoxue shouted as she threw off her shoes. She ran over barefooted, scaring off countless Three-Inch Nails along the way. She placed a huge insect box on the coffee table. After opening the box, I saw a dozen green figures scuttling out. Following that, the living room was filled with the deafening applause of countless figurine goddesses … Alright, a buzzing applause.
I looked at the insect nets on Shallow Shallow and the rest's shoulders and the insect box on the coffee table. I felt that my worldview from the past twenty years had been ruined today …
"Ah, dad, you're back?" Xiaoxue then noticed her father sitting on the sofa and Sandora sitting on the other side. She happily pounced on me and rubbed herself against my chest. "Dad, your daughter did a good job. All the goddesses that ran away were caught and brought back. Moreover, they didn't cause any incidents that would cause the worldview of ordinary people to collapse!"
"Actually, it was the cause of Qidian's collapse." The elder sister changed her shoes and walked over with a troubled smile. The moment she sat on the sofa, a few little goddesses landed on her head and started chattering. It seemed that the elder sister's affinity was quite obvious. "In this season, a group of people went to the city park to catch dragonflies. Although no one saw those little ones, we caused quite a commotion."
Lin Xue held a bottle of fresh orange and sat next to me. "It's fine. I already explained to the two reporters that it was a performance art enthusiast experiencing life …"
I wiped the cold sweat off my forehead. "You might as well not have explained at all."
The elder sister rolled her eyes at me. Suddenly, she felt something under her body. She quickly pulled out a dizzy little thing from under her butt. "Ah! Oh no! I think I fainted from sitting! "
