Chapter 057 Chapter 57
The capital city has been very busy recently. Not to mention the Mohist disciples who have come from all directions, there are quite a few scholars who have come to the capital to take the imperial examinations.
This has also led to Cheng Yishu's recent preference for going out for a walk. After all, there will be extra surprises every time he goes out.
For example, today, Fu Xingli has solved all the problems, and the only one left is his mother who has taken over his old job.
He was originally planning to go to the Imperial Master's Mansion to invite someone, but as soon as he went out, he ran into Cheng Yishu who was wandering outside.
Fu Xingli immediately stepped forward and greeted him: "Isn't this the Imperial Master? Is the Imperial Master doing well these days?"
Cheng Yishu hadn't finished eating the candied haws in his hand. When he saw Fu Xingli, he was stunned for a moment and quickly stuffed the candied haws to Bai Xiao behind him. He cleared his throat and straightened his back and said, "Hello, General Fu. I'm fine recently. What are you going to do?"
Cheng Yishu looked at Fu Xingli. He always felt that he had forgotten something recently. The moment he saw Fu Xingli, he understood. Okay, he just said it.
Forgot to exorcise the evil spirits...
No, it should be to send that woman away, but it is almost the same as exorcism, it doesn’t matter anymore.
Fu Xingli had a polite smile on his face. He said embarrassedly: "It's like this. I wanted to visit you at the Imperial Master's Mansion, and now I just happened to run into you. Our family...ah..."
Fu Xingli pretended to have an indescribable expression and looked at Cheng Yishu, expecting Cheng Yishu to ask him what was wrong.
Cheng Yishu did not disappoint him, and looked at him pretending to know nothing and said, "General Fu, what happened?"
Fu Xingli sighed and said, "My mother has been acting a little strange lately, so I would like to ask you, Imperial Master, to come and help me..."
Cheng Yishu shook his sleeves and waved his hand, saying, "I'm free now, lead the way."
Fu Xingli immediately led the way with a smile on his face. Cheng Yishu followed behind him and quietly stuck his head out. Bai Xiao immediately put the candied haws in front of him, and Cheng Yishu took a bite.
The sweet and sour feeling in his mouth made him squint his eyes in satisfaction. This candied haws was made by Wu Shu, and the sugar inside was the newly refined white sugar by his men.
The taste is very good. The hawthorn seeds inside have been removed, and it tastes sour and sweet in one bite.
By the way, the crops in his farm are about to mature. He will have to ask Si Nong to come over when the time comes. The yield of crops in the Xia Dynasty is not ideal, and there are not many varieties of crops. Although Cheng Yishu has not investigated, he can be sure that a large part of the crops in his farm are things that the people here have never eaten before.
Anyway, he relies on the crops in the system mall for food. He has hardly gone out these days because he has been lazy.
As soon as the capital city started to get lively, he came out to try his luck.
As soon as he came out, he met Fu Xingli. Although Fu Xingli's affairs had nothing to do with him, he could still go on this trip because he contributed a lot of task points to him without touching Fu Xingli's house.
The two came to a farm where Fu Xingli's fake mother lived. The matter between Fu Rulan and Fu Junxie had not been dealt with yet, and Fu Xingli was afraid that old lady Fu would cause trouble, so he just left her here.
Now, everything is ready, and Fu Xingli also hopes that his mother can come back.
No matter how old he is, as long as his mother is alive, his heart will be at peace.
Pushing open the door of the manor, this is the dowry manor of Fu Xingli's mother Gu Wuruo.
Cheng Yishu followed behind Fu Xingli, and Gu Wuruo was sitting in the manor. To be more precise, the soul of the favorite concubine was inside.
Gu Wuruo himself was sleeping deep inside his body.
When she saw Fu Xingli, the concubine immediately stood up and looked at him angrily, saying, "You unfilial son! When are you going to let me out?"
The woman in front of me is not young, but she still has some charm. Appearance reflects the heart, and the greed and calculation in her eyes make people feel disgusted.
Cheng Yishu frowned, pressed the golden dragon on his wrist, and a golden light flashed in his eyes.
The woman in front of him was startled and sat down on the ground. She stepped back tremblingly and said, "What are you doing? Who is he? What do you want to do?"
Fu Xingli's eyes were slightly red. His mother was coming back. He looked at the woman in front of him with disgust and said, "You know in your heart whether you are my mother or not!"
He said: "I felt something was wrong with my mother before. Where on earth did you come from? You are a ghost that has taken over my mother's body."
Cheng Yishu ate the last candied haws. He shook the stick in his hand and said, "It's definitely not your mother. Wait a minute."
He waved to Fu Xingli. Although Fu Xingli didn't know what Cheng Yishu was going to do, he still went over obediently.
Cheng Yishu wiped the skewer clean and poked it towards Fu Xingli's arm. The tip of the skewer was stained with Fu Xingli's blood. Cheng Yishu used the golden dragon mark on his wrist to help him. He held the skewer and shot it towards Gu Wuruo's body.
Fu Xingli looked at him with a worried look on his face. The skewer stabbed straight into Gu Wuruo's body and went through it. Gu Wuruo screamed and fainted.
Cheng Yishu glanced at the stick stuck on the ground, and a thunderous sound flashed by. Cheng Yishu wiped his hands with the handkerchief handed by Bai Xiao and said, "Okay, your mother may sleep for two days. Let her get more sun in these two days, and give her some nourishment after she wakes up, and she will be fine."
Fu Xingli nodded rapidly and immediately asked someone to bring his mother into the house.
He bowed to Cheng Yishu and said, "Thank you, Master Imperial Master! I will prepare a generous gift and send it to the Imperial Master's Mansion later..."
Cheng Yishu waved his hand and said, "It's just a matter of convenience."
Fu Xingli nodded, looked outside and said, "Then I will take the Imperial Master back to the city."
They were in a farm in the suburbs, and Cheng Yishu came with his carriage.
Thinking about the way they came, Cheng Yishu did not refuse. After they left the farm and before they got on the carriage, they saw a young and handsome boy lying on the path next to them.
Cheng Yishu blinked, Bai Xiao looked at Cheng Yishu and asked with his eyes whether he wanted to go over, Cheng Yishu looked at the huge exclamation mark above the boy's head.
Task triggering in the system.
Cheng Yishu didn't say anything. He immediately clicked on the task reward and blinked at the random items that appeared in it.
The spell of communicating with spirit beasts...
There are still 15,000 mission points...
It doesn’t matter what the task is, the task reward is the most important.
He immediately waved his hand and said, "Help!"
Bai Xiao immediately flew forward to check, and after making sure that the person was really unconscious and not trying to scam him, he carried the person over.
After throwing the man into the carriage, Bai Xiao took a look at the situation and said, "This man is not seriously injured. He just fainted from hunger."
Cheng Yishu was silent. Was he fainted from hunger? ? ?
He looked at the person in front of him. He was well dressed, so how could he faint from hunger here? Fu Xingli was as quiet as a chicken and didn't say a word.
Cheng Yishu just nodded and said, "Take it back first."
He looked at Fu Xingli and said, "Sorry to bother you, General Fu, please send us back to the mansion directly."
Fu Xingli immediately waved his hand and said, "I should be the one thanking you. I am sorry to bother you today. I will take you back home now."
Cheng Yishu nodded and closed his eyes, pretending to rest, but in fact he was checking the tasks.
[Let me see what's going on here. However, is the spell for communicating with spirit beasts the one I was thinking of? ]
The system poked its head out and said, "Ah, this is the beast taming spell. You can choose a spirit beast to tame, but there is a chance of failure. However, there are only mortal beasts in this world, so it is 100% successful..."
Cheng Yishu suddenly realized that it was almost the same as what he thought.
[That's a shame. There's only one. Which animal should I choose? A pet...]
The system cat wrapped its tail around Cheng Yishu's arm, and rubbed against Cheng Yishu with a delicate meow.
[Don’t choose the cat, you already have me! ]
Cheng Yishu was happy, and he rubbed the system cat's soft fur with his hands.
[Of course I won’t choose a cat~ I’m not the kind of person who is unfaithful. I’ll think about it...]
How should I put it? When it comes to taming beasts, it is not appropriate to choose large animals. Although they are powerful, they are of little use.
He was thinking about choosing some small animals that wouldn't attract attention...
Mice are impossible. System Cat hates mice the most. He doesn't like that kind of thing either. Although mice are indeed inconspicuous and can run around, their appearance is nothing.
What to choose? That is the question...
However, the task has not been completed yet, so there is plenty of time to think about it.
He opened the triggered mission and took a look at the mission briefing.
