As Cheng Xiaoxiao spoke, Senior Mao's eyes became brighter and brighter.
He listened to Cheng Xiaoxiao's words, but his eyes fell on the empty old cadre's teacup beside him. He picked up the teacup and poured some warm water into it, then handed it to Cheng Xiaoxiao, "Girl, drink some water! Let's talk slowly, there's no rush!"
Cheng Xiaoxiao paused for a moment, took a sip from her teacup, and then continued, "I've finished talking about the interstellar world. Now, let me tell you about my time as a princess in the Qin Dynasty! So, I just traveled to the Qin Dynasty, and I met my father, the emperor, who was so handsome that he was hated by everyone..."
"Who is your father?!"
"Sorry, I'm so used to calling you that, I forgot to tell you that my father is the First Emperor, Ying Zheng."
"Oh! How's he? Did you take a picture of him?"
"Yes, yes, I almost forgot. Look, this is his photo. Isn't it nice?"
"Wow! Your father looks so energetic and handsome!"
"Yeah, right..."
…
As the time gradually approached noon, Senior Mao invited Cheng Xiaoxiao, "Girl, it's time to eat. Let's eat and talk."
Cheng Xiaoxiao drank some warm water and nodded, "Okay."
She smiled sheepishly, "Come to think of it, I'm actually quite hungry."
This morning alone, Cheng Xiaoxiao had already drunk two large cups of warm water, and she never stopped talking.
Senior Mao didn't feel bored while listening. To him, what Cheng Xiaoxiao described were all scenery he had never seen before, and he was quite curious.
"Hahaha..." Senior Mao laughed heartily and said to Cheng Xiaoxiao kindly, "Don't worry, you'll have plenty of food here."
After saying that, he took Cheng Xiaoxiao to the cafeteria.
When she opened the heavy army green door curtain, she was greeted by noisy voices and the fragrant aroma of food. Cheng Xiaoxiao only felt hungrier.
Although it doesn't matter if she doesn't eat with her current level of cultivation, for Cheng Xiaoxiao, who has a hidden foodie zodiac sign, food and life are things that cannot be wasted.
Led by Senior Mao, Cheng Xiaoxiao came to the inner room of the cafeteria. As soon as they sat down, the chef brought the steaming dishes and placed them on the table.
After a while, four dishes, a soup and two bowls of white rice were placed on the table for the two of them.
Steamed fish, Kung Pao chicken, braised lion's head, chicken stewed with mushrooms, and a pot full of pork ribs soup were placed on the table. The aroma of several dishes mixed together made Cheng Xiaoxiao's mouth water.
Senior Mao looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao, his eyes full of love, "Girl, eat quickly! Don't starve!"
Hearing these caring words, Cheng Xiaoxiao felt a warmth in her heart. She knew that the senior treated her as one of his own.
"Okay, then I won't be polite." Cheng Xiaoxiao answered gracefully.
Senior Mao nodded in satisfaction, "That's how it should be."
…
After dinner.
Cheng Xiaoxiao and Senior Mao were walking in the snow, and their conversation caused mist to rise.
"Girl, how long can you stay this time?" Senior Mao smoked a cigarette and slowly exhaled a smoke ring. His words reached Cheng Xiaoxiao's ears in the smoke.
Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at him and was silent for a long time before she spoke, "Maybe I'll leave tomorrow."
The man suddenly stopped, but regained his composure after a moment, though he still felt a little lost. He asked, "Can't you stay for two more days?"
Cheng Xiaoxiao shook her head and sighed, "It's not that I can't, but the thousand-year period after my master and his people leave the world left by the demons is coming to an end. I'm afraid if I go back too late..."
Cheng Xiaoxiao did not finish the rest of the words, she believed that the senior could understand what she meant.
Cheng Xiaoxiao then said, "But don't worry, after I have this function, I will definitely come to see you often."
She thought to herself that perhaps a channel could be built between the two worlds in the future, and it would be much easier to meet then.
Senior Mao looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao deeply and said helplessly, "Okay!"
"Then don't forget! I'll be waiting for you right here among these flowers."
Cheng Xiaoxiao nodded heavily, her tone full of seriousness, "Okay, I will definitely not forget it."
That night, Cheng Xiaoxiao, Senior Mao and Senior Zhou talked all night long until dawn, when the three of them suddenly realized the time.
Of course, Cheng Xiaoxiao also gave Senior Zhou a laptop and something else.
She looked at the rising sun outside the window and sighed, "Time... really waits for no one."
Senior Mao and Senior Zhou gathered around the extinguished charcoal brazier, looking in the direction of Cheng Xiaoxiao, and the dazzling red sun appeared in their sight.
They knew that after this brief reunion, it was time to say goodbye.
Senior Mao lit a cigarette silently. He took a deep puff and some ash fell off the cigarette.
"Girl," he warned Cheng Xiaoxiao, "I know your cultivation is higher than ours, and your ability to protect yourself is also better than ours, but I still hope you can be careful."
"From your description of the demons, they're just like the shameless chickens in the basin. You must be extremely vigilant when facing such an enemy. If you let your guard down even a little, they'll destroy you."
Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at Senior Mao, whose face was half covered in smoke, and nodded obediently, "Senior, I remember."
Senior Zhou on the side also spoke up, "What he just said to you is what I wanted to say, but I want to add one thing..."
"What?" Cheng Xiaoxiao was puzzled.
Senior Zhou opened his mouth and slowly uttered, "I wish you a triumphant return!"
Cheng Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, then stood up and saluted the two of them, "Thank you for your good wishes, seniors."
She looked at the two of them and said goodbye solemnly, "Two seniors, please take care of yourselves. Xiaoxiao will come to see you again in the future."
Senior Mao and Senior Zhou looked at each other, then stood up from their chairs. Their gazes fell on Cheng Xiaoxiao at the same time. "Okay, take care of yourself too."
Cheng Xiaoxiao nodded gently and called out to Cheng Mianmian in her heart, "Mianmian, start the journey."
Cheng Mianmian's voice rang out from Cheng Xiaoxiao's mind, "Okay, Master."
"Your journey is now open. Countdown to your journey: ten...nine...eight...two...one...
The crossing was successfully initiated! "
As Cheng Mianmian finished speaking, a white light suddenly flashed before the eyes of Senior Mao and Senior Zhou, and then Cheng Xiaoxiao disappeared in the reluctant gazes of the two.
"Ah~" A sigh sounded. Senior Zhou looked at the place where Cheng Xiaoxiao had just stood and sighed, "I don't know when I will see this girl again."
"Yes!" Senior Mao echoed, muttering softly, "When will it be..."
…
Blue Star, Xiaoyao Sect.
The sudden flash of white light disappeared in an instant, and Cheng Xiaoxiao appeared in her own courtyard.
She glanced at the location and walked straight into the room.
