The weather is good today, the sky is clear, and the sun above our heads makes Chen Yao warm.
After sneaking out of Xinglong Store, Chen Yao went straight to the back street. As soon as he turned around and turned into the alley, the sun fell directly on the pocket bag around his waist.
[Absorbable energy detected, current form energy absorption efficiency: low, whether...]
Chen Yao was startled by the light curtain that suddenly popped up. His heart suddenly suddenly popped up, and he suddenly issued an order to close the light curtain.
Fortunately, after observing the surroundings, I determined that no one had noticed what was going on here.
"Tianji box, you are not allowed to pop up the light curtain without permission in the future."
A neutral mechanized voice sounded in Chen Yao's ears, but the light curtain did not pop up again.
[Received... Host demand has been detected. Do you want to adjust the light curtain to a more covert mode? 】
"yes."
[Light curtain mode adjustment completed, current mode is: retinal projection]
The light curtain popped up again, but the difference from before was that now only he could see the light curtain.
Turning off the light curtain and getting into the alley, after twists and turns, Chen Yao arrived in front of Grandma Lin Xiang's shop.
"Grandma Lin, are you there?"
"Hey, come on, little one, what's the matter?"
"Grandma, you don't have a pocket bag like this."
Chen Yao lifted up his clothes, revealing the pocket on his waist.
"Yes, yes, come in with me."
Chen Yao followed Grandma Lin and turned around and entered the small compartment in the house. There were three or five rows of wooden display racks in the compartment, which were filled with portable containers of various styles, either made of leather or cloth.
"Take a look at which one you like. The two rows here are all made of leather waist bags."
"Well... let's take this one. How much does it cost?"
Chen Yao followed the position pointed by Granny Lin and picked out one of the two rows of pockets that was similar in size to the one on his waist.
"Just give me a silver coin."
"Then, grandma, please find the money."
Saying that, Chen Yao took out a gold binding coin from the binding ring.
"Ouch! You little guy, are you deliberately making things difficult for my old lady?"
"No, grandma, I went out today and spent all my silver and copper coins..."
"Forget it, I'll give you a pocket bag as a gift from grandma."
"How about that? You have already given us a great discount today. If you really want to do this, we will go shopping elsewhere in the future."
Chen Yao put down his pocket bag and pretended to leave.
"Oh! Okay, okay, I'll give you some change."
Grandma Lin grabbed Chen Yao, took the gold-binding coins, walked around the counter and counted out nine bundles and nine silver-binding coins.
"Oh, it's so inconvenient to change money like this! I have old arms and legs, and my eyesight can't be used well..."
"I heard that a small instrument worn on the wrist is being trialled in the city, which can make transactions more convenient and faster. I just don't know if I can use it~"
Grandma nuttered and pushed a large pile of silver coins to Chen Yao.
"Ah, thank you grandma."
"Okay, remember to come often in the future."
"knew."
After exiting the back street, Chen Yao walked along the middle street towards the hotel. When passing by the snack vendors on the street, Chen Yao couldn't help but pack a lot of food.
It's noon now, thinking about Qiu Yunxi and the others, they are almost hungry.
"Good afternoon, Boss Ed."
"Haha, good afternoon, little one, have you eaten? The store provides lunch? I'll give you a discount, how about it?"
Old Ed pointed to the dining area nearby, and saw several half-rabbits sitting on the polished wooden table, chatting in low voices while eating the vegetable salad on the plate.
"Ji... the food here is really terrible..."
"Yeah, yeah, I won't eat here next time..."
Chen Yao listened calmly and smiled at Old Ide.
"Oh, I brought it. Thank you, Boss Ide, for your kindness."
Chen Yao pointed at the binding ring and said.
"Alas! What a pity, our chef is pretty good at cooking..."
"Next time, definitely next time."
................................................................. ...
"Knock knock knock...I'm back."
"Come on, come on!"
The door was opened, and it was Yue Li who opened the door.
"Brother Yao~ Why did you come back? I'm so hungry, ugh..."
Qiu Yueli suddenly threw herself on Chen Yao and complained.
"Well... I went shopping and took care of some things. Well, didn't I give you money? Didn't I buy anything to eat?"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Yueli jumped up like a kitten's fur.
"I bought it! But I didn't eat much, my sister ate it all!"
"Well...it was my negligence. I didn't take into account that Yina eats a lot...Yunxi, this is for you."
Chen Yao took out a gold-bound coin and flicked it towards Qiu Yunxi with his thumb.
"If I go out for something, then you will have to worry about their food. Is that okay?"
"Oh? You treat me like a servant, right?"
Qiu Yunxi reached out with two fingers and caught the flying gold coin.
"Hehe, no, no, you are a sister."
Chen Yao slipped behind Qiu Yunxi, put his hands on the girl's slippery shoulders, and started to massage them gently.
"Hmm~"
"I will definitely go out frequently during this period, mainly to familiarize myself with the situation in the town. If I don't come back, I will ask you to take care of them, okay?"
Chen Yao whispered into Yun Xi's ear while changing the strength and massage position of his hands.
"I...I know! Okay! Stop pressing..."
Qiu Yunxi weakly pushed Chen Yao away, then glared at him complainingly.
"Brother Yao! Stop flirting with your sister. Without food, lovely Lili will really starve to death!"
Qiu Yueli slumped half of her body on the table, her tone full of sourness.
"What kind of flirting! Don't talk nonsense!"
"Tch, I know, I know, my sister is thin-skinned~ Hehe."
"Hey, Xiaohu, go find a basin with some water and put these fish in it."
Chen Yao handed over the bamboo basket with fish in his hand.
"Okay, big brother."
"Lili, where is Yina?"
"She's full and sleeping in her room."
"I really feel wronged to you..."
Chen Yao reached out and rubbed Lili's little head.
"Don't touch me casually! Give me something to eat first!"
Yue Li angrily put her hands on her hips and raised her head.
"All right..."
Chen Yao walked to the wooden table and put all the snacks and snacks he had bought on it in one go. All kinds of fragrances suddenly spread everywhere, causing Yue Li to let out a sweet cry.
"Wow! So many delicious foods! Woohoo... Finally I don't have to be hungry anymore."
While a few people were talking, the door to Chen Yao's room was opened, and Yina, wearing only white underwear and lace shorts, walked out cheerfully, rubbing her eyes with one hand and yawning.
"Brother hug..."
"Well...the new clothes I bought are very nice, but why do you only wear so much? What should I do if I catch a cold?"
Chen Yao picked up the girl and frowned.
"Sleep...with a quilt..."
"Hmmmm... sister Yina's clothes were washed off by her sister, and we all changed into new clothes! Why didn't brother find out? It's not fair!"
Qiu Yueli chewed with a bulging mouth, and slammed the table with the roasted chicken leg in her little hand.
"Well... Lili's emerald green clothes look great with you, um... Yunxi's white plain skirt also goes well with you, hehe."
"Hum! Hypocrisy! Favoritism!"
"snort!"
"..."
"Brother...want to eat."
Yina pointed to the food on the table with her little finger, raised her head and said pitifully.
"Didn't you just eat? Aren't you full?"
"Um."
"Okay, put on your clothes first, be good~"
Chen Yao put on the newly bought sky blue skirt for Yina.
Due to her special body structure, the back of the skirt also has a special structure. The circular hole on it is just enough for Yina's little tail to stick out. After putting on the clothes, he brought the girl to the table.
"You have to leave some for your brothers and sisters! You can't eat it all by yourself!"
After tapping the tip of the girl's nose, Chen Yao pretended to have a straight face.
"Okay~"
After a while, all the food on the table was eaten by several people. Chen Yao ate on the street and did not join in the battle for food.
"Well...so full~"
"Brother, the food outside is really delicious, but it's a pity that father and the others can't eat it..."
As he spoke, Xiaohu lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Don't worry, there will be a day when everyone can live a good life."
Chen Yao patted Xiaohu's broad arm and comforted him. When he said this, Yun Xi looked at him with a strange expression, but said nothing.
"Okay, it's time to go out after taking a rest. We'll go find Brother Siwen later and ask him to take us to redeem the loot from before."
After Chen Yao finished speaking, he closed his eyes and sat up quietly.
Half an hour later, Chen Yao led a few people out of the hotel and ran straight to the address given by Si Wen.
"No. 17, Zhong Street, this is the right place."
The building in front of me has three floors. Although there is no obvious label information, the rows of weapon racks at the door, the wooden ladders on both sides of the house that connect three floors, and the giant sword and shield badges embedded in the eaves prove that this is no ordinary residence.
The giant wooden arch on the first floor was open, and a guard was standing nearby, dozing off. He looked familiar, but Chen Yao couldn't name him.
"Good afternoon, sir, do you still remember me?"
"Uh...ah! It's you! Your name is..."
The guards who woke up from their drowsiness recognized Chen Yao and others at a glance.
"Chen Yao."
"Okay, Mr. Chenyao, my name is Maude. What brings you to the guard station?"
"Is Captain Siwen here?"
"Yes, but now he is at the training ground in the back."
"Then please lead the way."
"no problem."
Following Mod's guidance, the group came to the back of the guard station. Chen Yao recognized Siwen at a glance, who was instructing several newcomers on their movements.
"Captain Siwen! Someone is looking for you!"
"Oh? It's Chen Yao, why are you here?"
Siwen put down the sword and shield in his hands and hurriedly stepped forward.
"I'm going to trouble you again, Brother Siwen. I'm thinking of exchanging the loot you gave me earlier today to see if you have time..."
"You have time, you have time! Hey~ There is no need to be polite between the two of us. Soldier Maude, come forward!"
"receive!"
"The rest of the training will be left to you! Train these newcomers well! I will check and accept the results when I come back!"
"clear!"
After receiving the order, Mod trotted to the spot where Siwen was standing before and continued the unfinished training.
At a glance, he saw two petite figures among the newlyweds, which made his eyes stagnant. Coupled with the two glances he cast from time to time...
Stepping forward, Chen Yao signaled Mod to stop.
"You two, you must work hard. Don't worry, Brother Siwen will take care of you."
Chen Yao said softly to the two girls, and then patted their thin shoulders gently.
"Um!"
"Then I'll leave first. Let's go, brother Siwen."
"no problem!"
Chen Yao has already left the guardhouse, but there are two eyes that he refuses to take back...
[Hey, there are a lot of foodies... Oh! Do you have to earn food expenses?
Speaking of female protagonists, isn’t there too much? Is it much? Not much, it seems? Hehehe...]
