Chapter 86: So fairy and polite, I want to ride!

Duan Anluo was exhausted after a long day of work. He took a quick shower and fell asleep immediately after returning home. He didn't even see the message from Si Cang.

Si Cang knew that Duan Anluo loved to binge-watch TV series at night. Sometimes, he would forget the time while watching, and would stay up until the middle of the night without noticing. The next day, he would sleep until he woke up naturally, and no one dared to wake him. Duan Anluo's life rhythm was a mess, and it was impossible for him to fall asleep before midnight.

After sending several messages with no response, Si Cang became worried and called Qi You: "Where's your master?"

Qi You had just finished summarizing today's experience and wrote it down neatly in a small notebook. When he received the call, he lowered his voice and said, "My master is tired and has gone to bed."

Si Cang frowned: "What did he do during the day?"

"When you take on quests through the guild system, some are worth three points, while others are worth one point."

Si Cang was speechless. He didn't have to pay it back, and his body hadn't fully recovered yet. What was the point of earning those points?

Then Qi You added honestly, "But Master said he won't do it anymore. He wants to take us to find you, saying we are his dowry."

Si Cang raised the corners of his mouth, and a smile was etched in his deep voice: "I'll send someone to pick you up."

Qi You: ???

No, it took the master a whole day to give up, but the mistress didn’t even consider it for a second?

He quickly said, "Master's wife...ah no, uncle! Don't worry, my master must be very tired and just said it casually. Wait until you come back and ask him in person."

He didn't dare make decisions for his master. The master would use the tablets of over three hundred of his fellow disciples as a wooden plank and spank him. It wouldn't hurt, but it would be humiliating. He was already a senior disciple, and face was important.

Si Cang looked around the Si family's old house where he lived. It had been passed down for hundreds of years and expanded several times, becoming this large quadrangle with nine entrances and five spans. It was backed by mountains and faced the water, so the feng shui was excellent.

The ancient trees in the courtyard stood tall and vigorous, and the interior was filled with antiques, all collected by his biological father. Now, all of this became his.

Si Cang thought that Duan Anluo should like such a courtyard.

But beneath these carved beams and painted buildings, blood once soaked them. In the past, the atmosphere was filled with smog, intrigue, and countless dirty deeds that could not be seen in public were played out.

Thinking of Duan Anluo's eyes that could see the past, Si Cang closed his eyes, hiding the emotions in them. Forget it, he couldn't let these dirty things pollute his pure eyes. He would talk about it later.

"I'll go back as soon as possible," he said finally. "Don't let him take that kind of mission again."

He wanted to transfer some money and ask Qi You to buy Duan Anluo some fun things to distract him. Suddenly he remembered that Qi You was underage and didn't have a credit card linked to his account. "Forget it, I'll have someone deliver it tomorrow."

The next day, when Duan Anluo opened his eyes, he saw Xun Xiao lying on the edge of the bed, staring at him eagerly.

When the young disciple saw that he was awake, he immediately climbed onto the bed and asked, "Master, are you still going to do the mission today?"

Xun Xiao was like an abandoned puppy, and he just wanted to stick to his master all the time. Only in this way could he feel safe.

But he knew that this wouldn't work. His master and his brothers had important things to do. He was already living a life he hadn't even dreamed of before, so he couldn't be too greedy. He wanted to get closer, but he was afraid his master would get annoyed if he did it too often. He wanted to follow them, but he didn't dare to say anything.

Duan Anluo hugged the little guy, closed his eyes and replied lazily: "No, I'm tired."

Xun Xiao's eyes lit up. Does this mean he can see his master all day? He couldn't help but start wagging his tail. He couldn't help it at all.

Duan Anluo laughed, little wolf cub, after your bloodline awakens, you will become a cool guy who doesn’t want anyone to touch you. Hug you more while you are still young.

Qi You heard the voices and walked to the door. "Last night, Master's wife said she would send someone to pick us up. I asked him to discuss it with you first."

Duan Anluo opened his eyes suddenly: "What did you say to him?"

"I didn't say anything nonsense... As you said, we are all dowries."

Qi You really didn't want his master to go out and travel anymore. Duan Anluo had fair skin, and the heat was still very strong after the beginning of autumn. Yesterday, his master was outside and the tip of his nose was red from being exposed to the sun.

Duan Anluo was speechless. These guys in leather jackets were leaking more than one and talking faster than one.

He took out his phone and texted Si Cang: "I'm fine. I was too tired to fall asleep last night."

Si Cang quickly replied: "Don't take any more missions, you don't have to pay them back. If you're bored, you can go and do Feng Shui for people."

"Well, when will you be back?"

"I'll finish my work here and go back as soon as possible."

"Bring me that opera puppet."

"Aren't you going to renovate it? I'll send someone to keep an eye on it. Bring Xiao Shi to live with me."

Duan Anluo narrowed his eyes and didn't reply immediately.

Si Cang followed up with another message: "I'll pick you up when I'm done."

Duan Anluo still didn't reply and just stared at the phone screen quietly.

Si Cang immediately sent a message: "The president likes to take care of children, you can let him take care of Xiao Shi."

Duan Anluo smiled and replied, "You want to kidnap me?"

Si Cang replied immediately: "Yes, can you kidnap her?"

Duan Anluo smiled and typed: Yes.

On the other side of the screen, Si Cang raised the corners of his mouth and his brows softened unconsciously.

A middle-aged man in a gray Tang suit walked into the hall and saw Si Cang sitting alone on the sofa in the living room with a smile on his face.

He quickly hid the shock in his eyes and walked over with a normal expression, "Master, those old guys are here. They said they knew they were wrong. Now they are kneeling outside the ancestral hall and dare not come over."

The tenderness in Si Cang's eyes disappeared instantly, but he didn't get angry. He said slowly, "They don't know they are wrong, they just know they are afraid."

The housekeeper asked respectfully, "How do you think we should deal with this?"

Si Cang's eyes flashed with a hint of amusement, and he said lightly: "Let them look into each other's eyes and praise each other for 30,000 words. No repetition is allowed, and they can leave only after they finish speaking."

The housekeeper was stunned and said, "Yes."

Si Cang added: "Not a single word can be missing."

housekeeper:"……"

How come the Patriarch's style of punishment... suddenly became so refreshing and tricky?

Outside the ancestral hall, three business tycoons in their fifties, dressed in suits and ties, were kneeling nervously. As soon as they saw someone approaching, they hurriedly asked, "Mr. Ding, what did the head of the family say?"

The housekeeper asked them coldly, "The head of the family has long said that internal fighting is forbidden. How much profit can you fight over so fiercely? Do you want to farm? Or just farm directly?"

The three of them were so nervous that they almost scratched their fingers. The benefits were too great, and they couldn't help but want to take it all for themselves. They had been doing it very secretly, but they didn't expect that their secret competition would still be discovered.

At this age, they don’t want to go to the mountains to carry manure, nor do they want to go to the desert to plant trees, and they don’t want to farm in the fields.

The housekeeper repeated Si Cang's words and said coldly, "The master is in a good mood today. If it happens again, you won't be so lucky."

All three of them were dumbfounded.

"Look, look into each other's eyes... and brag for 30,000 words?!"

The three of them looked at each other, and their faces felt nauseous. They might as well go pick up manure!

The housekeeper called three people to watch with word counters, "The master said that not a single word can be missed."

After Duan Anluo finished his meal, he saw the goose sleeping on the sofa and asked casually, "Do you have any friends who can fly?"

Goose Brother didn't even look up, "Yes, what do you want to do?"

"I need a flying guardian fairy."

A flying immortal could use his spirit body to carry him on a journey, or even take him flying in deserted places. Duan Anluo had a hunch that he needed to find a flying guardian immortal. Although he didn't know what would happen next, his experience told him that trusting his intuition was always a good idea.

The goose yawned and finally raised his long neck. "Can't you ride me? I can fly too."

Duan Anluo's face was full of disgust. "Look at which master is riding a goose?"

The big white goose was lazy, like an old scoundrel who had nothing to do after a full meal and was just wandering around the street. "What's wrong with riding a goose? Zhang Guolao even rides a donkey. Do you dare to say he's not an immortal?"

Duan Anluo was disgusted. No matter what, he just didn't want it because the big goose was not good-looking and not fairy-like enough.

He was very picky about choosing guardian immortals. First, they had to be powerful. Second, they had to be good-looking. He required the weasel to have white fur, not only because white fur meant it had strong magical powers and had already cultivated a human body, but also because its fur was beautiful.

Ferocious beasts must be tall and mighty, and flying creatures must be ethereal and graceful.

Goose Brother also tried to introduce himself: "I can really fly. I kick my legs to boost myself, and spiritual energy gushes out of my butt. The reaction force sends me soaring into the sky. Then I flap my wings, and whoosh! I'm out. I can fly over a hundred meters."

Duan Anluo's mouth twitched. "Come here, heat up some oil in a pan and stew it for me."

Goose Brother quickly stood up and patted Duan Anluo's shoulder with his wings. "Alright, alright, I was just kidding you. There really is one, but it's quite arrogant and probably won't follow you."

Duan Anluo asked suspiciously, "Are you sure he's your friend? Not your enemy?"

"Am I that kind of goose? How could I introduce my enemy to such a good thing?" It touched the red envelope on its head with its wings and said awkwardly: "It's my eldest brother."

Duan Anluo smiled. "Your network is quite extensive. You have so many followers, and there's even a boss above you?"

"Let me tell you this, I have friends with everything that flies in the sky, runs on the ground, swims in the water, jumps in the grass..." Brother Goose was not bragging when he said this, he has a lot of friends.

Duan Anluo asked, "What is your friend's true form? Don't bring me back a flying locust."

"What locust? I'm a crane! A crane!"

Duan Anluo stood up excitedly, "Crane?!"

The big white goose continued, "But its legs are not good. They were seriously injured and now it can't walk."

Duan Anluo sat down again. How could he fly if he couldn’t walk?

Goose: "It can fly with one leg."

Duan Anluo stood up again and kicked the goose on the butt. "Can you finish your words in one breath? Can you, can you?"

"Yes, yes, yes," the goose twisted its butt in pain and muttered, "You are so young, why are you so irritable?"

Seeing Duan Anluo's disgusted look, Goose Brother quickly became serious, "Although my brother's leg is injured, it doesn't affect his flying. It's just that he didn't look very good at the beginning."

Duan Anluo imagined the limping crane running wildly...

Duan Anluo thought, forget it, and look for something else.

The goose had already jumped to the ground and said seriously, "It has a proud and aloof personality and is very concerned about its reputation. It is the one who suffers the most for becoming like this. It has been concentrating on cultivation these years and has not paid much attention to the affairs of the martial arts world. Boss, maybe you can help it."

Duan Anluo asked, "Is there any difficulty with it?"

The goose lost its usual laziness. "My eldest brother and sister-in-law practiced together for over three hundred years and even laid an egg. Unfortunately, twenty years ago, a mystic took advantage of my eldest brother's foraging trip and abducted both my sister-in-law and the egg. When my eldest brother returned to rescue her, he found that my sister-in-law had been signed into a master-servant contract. The man had many subordinates, and my eldest brother was severely injured by them. He fought tooth and nail to retrieve the egg, and his power regressed by over a hundred years. Even the life force in the egg was drained away, leaving less than one-tenth, and it has yet to hatch."

Seeing Duan Anluo was silent, the goose quickly said, "My eldest brother is the most loyal. If you can help heal his leg, he will definitely repay you."

As for getting his wife back, Big Goose didn't say anything. It was Big Brother's own business, and there was no need to drag the boss into it. The mystic had many helpers, and the boss treated them well. It couldn't put the boss in an unfair position and put him at risk.

Duan Anluo sighed, "Alright, call it over here and I'll see if I can cure it."

He counted on his fingers and thought, this must be fate.

It wasn't fate before, and even if he asked the big goose, it might not tell him.

Now he felt that he needed a flying guardian fairy, so when he asked casually, the big goose mentioned his favorite crane.

The goose excitedly wrote and drew on the ground with its claws. "To be honest, it definitely won't come. Just wait for me to trick it over."

Duan Anluo: “…”

Then he saw the goose lying on the ground, stretching its neck forward, crying out to the circle: "Big brother! Save me! Someone wants to eat me, quack quack quack~~~"

The big goose cried so miserably, so miserably that Duan Anluo wanted to help it. I have to say, this goose is really good at acting!

He didn't know why, but the more he loved these things, the worse their tempers became, their temperaments became more and more vicious, and each one was better at pretending and acting than the other.

Looking behind him, there were dozens of pairs of eyes, including people and fairies, watching the big goose perform eagerly, and their expressions showed that they were eager to try.

Duan Anluo sat down. These little things were simply unbearable to look at. He only cared for the guardian fairies with ethereal aura.

At this moment, a spiritual crane gradually formed beside the goose. It was nearly two meters tall, pure white, with a tail covered in black feathers. Its feathers were dense and smooth, flowing with spiritual energy and shimmering with a soft luster.

The top of its head is bright red, its eyes are sharp, its conical beak is long and hard, and its body is slender and well-proportioned, giving people a feeling of elegance, tranquility and elegance.

Even though it has a large body, its posture is still slim and upright, like an ethereal bird that is not affected by worldly affairs.

Unfortunately, there was a black scar on one of its legs, with black gas coming out of it, as if it had been bitten by some poisonous spirit. It could not be removed, so it could only be suppressed with spiritual power, which continuously consumed its spiritual power.

Its sharp eyes swept across the scene and fixed its gaze on Duan Anluo. Instinctively, it had a strong hostility towards humans, but the aura on Duan Anluo made it dazed for a moment: such a comfortable power of nature!

Every mystic master has a different aura. Even a mystic master who has never done anything wrong has thousands of different auras. This mystic master gives it the feeling of being one with nature, with an affinity that embraces the heavens and the earth.

Look at the small animals watching over, they are all protected by this friendly energy and are all well taken care of.

The hostility in He Ling's eyes lessened a little. He glanced at the goose at his feet, and angrily pulled it behind him with one claw. While protecting it, he nodded slightly to Duan Anluo, "Master, is there a misunderstanding between you and me? If I have offended you, I will apologize to you on its behalf."

Duan Anluo's mouth corners curled up, so fairy, so polite, I want to ride!
