The man called his name in his ear one last time, his voice rich and thick, "Oliver, is that it? The Qilin and the Vermilion Bird, the dragon rises and holds the banner, like the many stars circling the pole, rebellious and brilliant."
Oliver panted and nodded, thinking vaguely in his heart, I haven't even said it yet, but this person knows the origin of my name. He, he is not only tall and strong, but also very knowledgeable.
The bright red sunset fell in Baiyujing. In the misty water, a huge dragon soul lay coiled on the golden water, rubbing its ears with the human soul in its arms.
Oliver once again indulged in the swaying waves in her dream, getting drunk and waking up, and getting drunk again.
The crowing of roosters woke up the sleeping Qionglin Town. The morning sets the tone for the day.
At the Su Mansion, the servants were quick and efficient. The kitchen lady took a piece of fresh meat delivered by the butcher at the corner door and prepared breakfast early.
"Master, Master?"
"Wake up, young master. The old master and the eldest master are waiting for you to eat."
"Master, Master!"
Oliver only felt refreshed and tired all over. In his drowsy dream, he seemed to still linger on the feeling of touching each other's skin and breathing with someone else, but he could hear someone making noisy noises in his ears.
"Master!"
Jaxon was puzzled when he saw that he couldn't wake Oliver up no matter what he did. But when he looked at the "new pillow" under the young master's neck, he nodded. As expected, this jade box was still useful and helped their young master to have a good night's sleep.
In the end, Oliver was still woken up in a daze by Jaxon's life-threatening urging.
As soon as he woke up, Oliver felt something was wrong with him. He sighed and touched his body resignedly. Sure enough...
The young master, who had never experienced s3x, stared at the fluttering bed curtains with lifeless eyes, as if it was the rippling water waves in a dream. Oliver thought to himself, it's so frequent, is spring coming? I won't die of exhaustion, will I?
Immediately, Jaxon was sent out of the room by Oliver. He himself, with a red face, squatted beside the basin and washed his underwear with a grunt.
But after washing, he went to the small cabinet beside the bed to look for new underwear, but found that because he changed too frequently, there were no extra underwear in the room...
As he gritted his teeth and got out of bed, Oliver stretched his legs and happened to touch the jade box he brought back last night, which hit his knee and hurt.
It was a chaotic morning, and the young master finally became frightened and clicked the mutton-fat jade box with his fingers.
"Sell half of your Su family's wealth for money, and I will buy a room full of underwear!"
Oliver just said it to vent his anger, then got out of bed to find his father and elder brother for dinner.
But as soon as he turned his head, he suddenly heard sobbing again.
"!!!"
Oliver was so shocked that he accidentally slipped and fell off the bed. He felt his scalp numbing.
This is not a dream, it's broad daylight and it's haunted!
He was not afraid of those well-behaved little monsters. After all, they looked like just a bunch of "fish" in the pond.
This, this is different.
After thinking about it, Oliver subconsciously took out the scratcher on the edge of the bed, pointed at the inside of the bed and asked fearfully.
"Yes, yes, which one is it? Don't scare me, I, let me tell you first, there is a big monster in the lotus pond outside the door, it will eat you!"
The young man took the initiative to strike back with the tickler, but unexpectedly the "ghost" was not afraid at all. After hearing the words "eat you", it burst into tears, so loud that it was ear-shaking.
Only then did Oliver hear clearly that the crying sound seemed to be that of a child.
Because when he woke up in the morning, his mind was occupied by what happened in the pool last night. Now that he thought about it carefully, he also heard the child crying last night.
Oliver bravely stepped forward and finally confirmed that the voice came from that "half of his fortune". What on earth did he use as a pillow last night?
Oliver swallowed nervously, then stretched out his scratching hand and pushed the jade box, and when the crying continued, he pushed it harder.
"Wuwuwu, young master, don't eat me!"
Oliver finally answered, "You, are you a human or a ghost? Oh no, are you a demon or a ghost?"
The child's voice was not loud, but his articulation was clear, much better than the small fish and shrimps in the pond outside.
"I, I'm not a monster, nor a ghost." He said while hiccuping.
"I was originally a ginseng plant that grew naturally on the Vajra Wheel Mountain. Because of some things, I came down the mountain. Who knew that the land of the human world was full of red ropes? I was caught as soon as I came down the mountain. Woo woo woo, I can't get away. Sir, please be kind and let me go!"
When Oliver heard that it was not a ghost, he was not so scared anymore. He thought that even a ginseng could not bite people.
So he climbed onto the bed, tentatively used the tickler to slowly lift the lid of the jade box, and took a look inside. Oliver exclaimed "Ouch".
There was no ginseng in the jade box. At the moment, a little baby as big as a fist was curled up in the corner of the box. He had a ponytail on his head and a rosy face. He was only wearing a bellyband, but was tied up with a bunch of red ropes. He looked very uncomfortable.
"Oh! Isn't this a child?" Oliver thought to himself that his elder brother was really great. He bought a little baby, but he didn't even know how to raise it, let alone feed it. It seemed that the money was wasted.
I also can't tell my eldest brother about this, otherwise he might be heartless and stew the little guy in a rage.
There is no other way. We can't just tie the doll up in the box, otherwise it will cry from time to time, which is really creepy.
After thinking about it, Oliver had no choice but to step forward, sit on the bed, put down the tickler, and reach out to untie the rope of the ginseng doll.
"First of all, you can't cause trouble or run around and scare people."
The ginseng doll didn't care what Oliver said, he just kept nodding excitedly.
The red rope was tied in a very special way. When it was moved, a bell would jingle. So Oliver simply took out a pair of scissors and cut the rope with a "click".
When the ginseng doll saw that Oliver had untied the rope so easily, his eyes widened and he exclaimed, wanting to touch the scissors but was afraid.
Oliver breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, do you have a home..."
But before he could finish his words, the young master, who had never experienced the "evil heart of a demon", was stunned.
The poor little baby, who was originally depressed, broke free from the red rope, looked up at himself and grinned in the jade box, and then disappeared with a "whoosh".
"???"
"!!!"
Oliver gasped, and threw the scissors onto the bed with a "bang", looking furious.
"The world is going downhill, and the evil people are no longer as evil as they used to be!"
But he was let go, and Oliver didn't know what to do with such a small person, so he quickly calmed down, closed the jade box, pretended that the things were not lost, put on a smiling face, and went to the main hall to have dinner with his father and brother.
The family in the Su Mansion was having a happy breakfast, but the situation outside the Mansion was not so peaceful.
In the high pavilion, Chao Yun gently combed her hair and asked her sisters to prepare many gifts. After everything was ready, she waved her hand, collected the items for paying homage to the Dragon King, and then set off with all the monsters in the pavilion.
The maid in red asked, "Sister, where is this master's immortal residence? Why can't I feel it?"
Chao Yun said, "Your Excellency's magic is so vast that I don't know what it is either."
"How do we find it?" the maid wondered.
Chao Yun smiled, and the pearls on her temples regained some of their luster. "Of course I'll ask Young Master Su."
People from all walks of life in the town were keenly aware of the presence of evil spirits in the tower.
The leader of the Clam Demon Pavilion brought a group of little clam demons and rode on the evil wind to the Su Mansion in the southeast corner of Qionglin Town.
The big man who was still setting up the stall looked at the clouds above the Denggao Pavilion, then put away the frying pan, carefully took out some small insects that were glowing with golden light, and also went to the southeast corner of the town.
In the corners that people cannot see, the big and small monsters hiding in the human world followed Chao Yun who had gone ahead and rushed to the Su Mansion.
At this time, Oliver was still lying on the edge of the flower bed playing with the "fish" without knowing it.
The young master was mainly pulled out of his nap bed by the giant salamander Xiao Ni. The little salamander lay on the head of Oliver's bed, stretched out its hand and gently poked Oliver's face again and again, humming and saying that Commander Wu was here today and he wanted to introduce him to Oliver. Only then did Oliver wake up.
The young master still felt a little guilty. After all, he said he would find some "master" for others, but now there was no trace of him. Instead, he was rescued by the little demons because of the Rakshasa Bird incident and helped to conceal everyone's memory, so he owed them a favor.
But it was strange that after that day, these little monsters never mentioned looking for adults again. Instead, they stayed quietly in the flowerbed of their own home. At most, they would lazily go to the kitchen to steal some snacks every now and then...
Oliver lay on the edge of the pool, watching the giant salamander pointing at a giant electric eel under the water. The electric eel was also very respectful, standing up and bowing to Oliver.
Oliver quickly returned the greeting and placed a large basket of snacks beside her by the pool, allowing the little water monsters to stretch out their wet claws to take them away.
"I should thank you for saving my life from the clutches of the Lords in that desperate situation that day."
The electric eel was stunned, then turned to look at the giant salamander and used electric current to communicate with Xiao Ni in the water.
"Master, don't you know that it was you who saved him?"
The giant salamander shook his head, "If the adults don't say it, we dare not say it either."
Another little monster brought down some snacks and ate the food while parroting the words, "I dare not say, I dare not say."
So the electric eel pondered for a moment and stopped talking. He opened his mouth and the monk stuffed a piece of sticky rice cake into it.
Oliver was unaware of the mental struggles of the fishes. Instead, he watched Zou Wu leap in from the side wall of his yard, holding a piece of pig's hind leg in his mouth.
"I'm home!"
The big yellow dog nodded, and then protected Oliver like a guard.
Before Oliver could figure out whether this actually very ferocious tiger had gone to steal some meat, he heard Jaxon coming to report at the door.
"Master, Master, hurry up and pack your things and put on your most expensive bamboo-embroidered gauze robe!"
Oliver washed the cake crumbs off her hands with pool water.
"What? Did I pass the imperial examination? Look how excited you are."
Jaxon was still shouting excitedly, "Even if he was the top scholar of the dynasty, he would never see the lady boss of the high pavilion come to see him in person!"
"What?" Oliver was very puzzled. He had no relationship with Deng Gaolou. "You must be here to see your elder brother."
"No, Master. Miss Chaoyun brought a generous gift and specifically asked to meet Young Master Su. The Master and the Eldest Master are accompanying her."
Oliver was confused, but Jaxon still hurriedly took her into the house to change clothes. However, after searching through all the boxes and cabinets for a long time, she still couldn't find the brocade robe embroidered with green bamboo.
"Master, the clothes are just on the bedside."
Oliver's mind buzzed at this moment, and he remembered that in his dream, he had lent that man a piece of clothing, that bamboo-embroidered robe!
So he was stunned, shocked and incredulous, "Me me me. He he he!"
Jaxon was anxious and stopped looking. He just took another piece of clothes and put it on Oliver, who suddenly froze for some reason.
So when Oliver came out to meet the guests after getting all her things ready, she saw that the hall was full of colorful things. All kinds of beauties from the Denggao Pavilion came. After seeing Oliver, Chaoyun took the lead, and everyone paid great respects to the young master, calling him "Young Master".
Both Su's father and brother were stunned. They racked their brains but could not figure out what was going on.
Oliver hurriedly returned the gift. Finally, after Chaoyun said a few sincere and gentle words, Father Su and Brother Su politely escorted the "rare guest" in the hall to Oliver's own courtyard.
Oliver had already realized something was wrong, so she quickly brought people into the courtyard and sent the maids and servants away.
Only when there was no one around did Chao Yun take out many treasures that were glowing with the rays of light, and then he knelt directly in front of Oliver.
As soon as Chao Yun knelt, everyone behind her also knelt down.
"Please forgive me, sir. I have my reasons for stepping foot on the bank of the Jin River. I have no choice but to disturb your meditation. I am here to apologize."
Oliver hadn't reacted yet. He just thought these beautiful sisters might be crazy!
But he suddenly felt a warmth in his heart, and a golden light spread from his body. Right in front of his eyes, a brilliant glow appeared in the mist.
Chaoyun and the others were very excited when they saw this, and they quickly knelt down and bowed to Oliver again, and then they flew up one by one and disappeared into the glow. There was only a pile of gifts left, and Zouwu, who had turned into a big yellow dog, beside him.
"......"
Oliver turned his head stiffly towards the big yellow dog and said blankly.
"Did you see that?"
The big yellow dog nodded.
Oliver looked at the disappearing rays of light and murmured, "I am the one who is crazy."
Just like that, after a while, before Oliver could come to her senses, a group of women came out from the sunset glow again. No one knew what they had seen, but each of them had a shy look on their faces, but their eyes were shining.
Chaoyun bowed to Oliver again, "Thank you very much, sir. From now on, I will be at your disposal when I go up to the high pavilion."
Oliver just waved his hand stiffly.
But before Chao Yun left, he turned around and took something out of his sleeve.
"By the way, I caught this ginseng on the way here. It looks very nutritious. I'll make soup for you."
"......"
Oliver looked at the ginseng doll held in front of her in silence.
In the end, the young master still took the ginseng doll, but as soon as Chao Yun and the others left, the ginseng doll "whoosh" away again, leaving no trace.
Oliver continued to stare at his empty palm in a daze.
But before he stayed there for long, all kinds of monsters came to his small courtyard.
Some of them climbed over the wall directly, some knocked on the door lock before entering, and some came out directly from underground.
Without exception, they all had to pay homage to Oliver before they could enter the Xiaguang.
And when he came out, in addition to other gifts, he would take out a ginseng he had caught along the way from his sleeve and give it to Oliver to replenish his body.
The ginseng doll also ran and ran in Oliver's hands...
Just as Oliver stretched out his hand to take the ginseng and numbly accepted the demons' worship, something even more unexpected happened to him.
The county magistrate of this county was dressed in simple official uniform. This old man was already very old and was kneeling in front of him in fear and trepidation.
Just when Oliver was about to kneel down before the county magistrate, the old county magistrate turned into a big rooster with brilliant tail feathers in front of him!
Then the sunset glow came into view.
Oliver suddenly realized. No wonder there were three loud and high-pitched crowing of roosters every morning in Qionglin Town. It turned out that the old county magistrate was practicing his voice.
After a while, the old county magistrate came out from the sunset glow with a look of admiration in his eyes. He took out a ginseng from his sleeve and said kindly that it was for Oliver to eat to nourish her body.
Oliver was silent for a while, and finally said to the ginseng doll, "Still running?"
The ginseng doll had lifeless eyes and fell to its knees with a bang.
He stopped running, he gave in.
Maybe this is fate.
