"Madam, no!"
Ding Youtian was secretly worried. Although Jian Ning had said that she had died in her original time and space and it was impossible for her to travel back, Yang Dali could tear the barrier apart. He was worried that Jian Ning would ask Yang Dali to send her back to her original time and space.
Although he longed for the various high-tech things in Jane Ning's original time and space, he would not be happy even if Jane Ning took their whole family there!
Go and have a look. Staying for a few days is fine, but staying long-term is not an option. He belongs to this time and space. This is where he belongs. This is the root of him and his children.
Since Jian Ning traveled through time and space to become his wife, Ding Youtian, who grew up under the influence of feudal etiquette, still believed that husbands were supreme. It was natural that he believed that Jian Ning should follow his wishes and take his wishes as his own.
But Jane Ning's thoughts weren't quite like that. Furthermore, the barrier Yang Dali could tear apart wasn't a spacetime barrier, but rather a plane barrier between humans and the spirits within this time and space. She simply wanted to borrow Yang Dali's spiritual power to see if she could boost the apple branches' survival rate.
To put it bluntly, the spirits in the stories of Liao Zhai are demons. Is there anything wrong with her using the demons' magic power to revive the apple branches and promote their growth?
Jian Ning rolled her eyes at Ding Youtian. He was not allowed to accept it, but she insisted on accepting it. She looked at the mutton-fat jade ball in her hand and said, "Um..." Well, whether it was asking a person or a demon, the attitude should be correct. "Uncle Yang, if I may ask, can you help the fruit tree grow faster?"
"I'm not doing this for myself. The population here has dropped sharply from nearly 20,000 to just over 3,000 due to the annual ice disasters. Last year's harvest was poor, too. I want to use the fruit to make ointments and snacks to help the people of the city get through this winter, so no one starves to death."
"Excellent!" Ding Youtian was relieved upon hearing her say this, and hurriedly began to cheer her up. "If you can do this, it will also reduce the sin of killing committed by your entire clan. This is a good thing."
Yang Dali stroked his beard and smiled, "How difficult is that? Although my granddaughter is young, she is a gifted leader among the younger generations of our clan. She will be able to help you achieve your wish."
"I can, auntie. I'm willing to go with you." Yang Xiaoxue had longed for the world where humans lived. Now she had a legitimate reason to visit the human race. She was so happy when she looked around.
"She doesn't need to go." Jian Ning refused outright. She could see the joy in Yang Xiaoxue's eyes. Humans and demons have different paths. If you are born a demon, you should be a good demon, practice hard, and strive to ascend to become an immortal as soon as possible. This is the right way.
After becoming an immortal, she can do whatever she wants. But right now, Jane Ning doesn't want to let her go to the human world. What if she becomes addicted to the beauty of the human world and gets involved in a human-demon love affair in the future? How many human-demon love affairs can have a happy ending like the Legend of the White Snake?
It’s better not to go!
"It's not that I don't believe her. Uncle has already said that Xiaoxue is the best among your tribe's younger generation. But my cat is ferocious and loves to eat meat. Your granddaughter looks fresh and delicious. She will definitely transform into her original form when she goes with us. I'm worried that if I can't see her, my cat will take a bite. That would be terrible. How can I live with it?"
"Let's go with an older person."
Jian Ning said. He secretly gave Yang Dali a look. This old Yangzi should know that his granddaughter yearns for the human world. How could he still indulge her?
"Haha." Yang Dali immediately understood Jian Ning's expression and laughed, "That's right, I didn't think it through. Well, I'll give them the order first, tell them to pack up everything they need to pack up, and I'll go with you for a while, and it won't be too late to take everyone away when I come back."
"Grandpa!" Yang Xiaoxue was extremely disappointed, with her little mouth pouted. But Yang Dali did not tolerate her this time. He scolded her harshly and ordered her to pack her things quickly and make sure they were done before he came back.
Jian Ning and the others left the hall with Yang Dali. A gust of wind and sand seemed to blow in their faces. They squinted their eyes slightly, and when they opened them again, they saw Niu San and another yamen runner jumping around on a pile of rocks, shouting, "Master Ding! Brother Tong!"
Niu San and the yamen runner were sent by the county magistrate to search for them. What had happened? They had been asking around and had finally reached the hilltop south of the county town. If they couldn't find them, they planned to report back to the county magistrate to see if he should mobilize the entire city to search the hilltops.
"Hey, sir, Brother Tong." Niu San came forward, looking puzzled. "We both looked around here a while ago and didn't see you. How come you suddenly appeared again?"
"Oh, there's an alpaca here?" Niu Sangeng was puzzled. Several living people, alpacas, and cats were there. Was he blind? He turned to look at another yamen runner, who also looked puzzled.
It gets dark late in August, and it's dusk now. This area is all yellow sand and low rocks. There's no reason why a few living people couldn't see it?
Ding Youtian said calmly, "We just saw you. I'm afraid you've all been bewitched by ghosts. Stop talking and get down the mountain quickly."
As if to verify what he said, the wind started to blow, and there was a whimpering sound. Tong Bajin waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go. Don't come up the mountain when the sun sets."
Niu San said no more until he got down the mountain and then he couldn't help asking again, "Where did you pick up this alpaca?" He looked at the sheep in Erlangzi's hand and asked vigorously.
Yang Dali turned back to his original form as soon as he came out of the barrier. Yang Dali looked serious and was still a majestic old alpaca.
"How could I have found it? Brother, you're dreaming of getting married, dreaming of beautiful things." Tong Bajin punched him and said with a smile, "This was bought by my parents in the neighboring county. When we first arrived in our county, we didn't pay attention and it ran away. We forgot about it for a while, and this is the cat that my parents raised who went to find it."
Guoguo, carrying Baimei on his back, barked at him in dissatisfaction. Baimei was a famous cat.
Although Guoguo might not understand what the human and spiritual worlds were, when he quietly approached and was about to pounce on Yang Xiaoxue, the scene in front of him suddenly changed. Yang Xiaoxue turned from a delicacy in his eyes into a lamb with a human face. He panicked instantly and looked around but couldn't see Baimei. Damn it, he thought for a moment that he would never come back.
It shook its tail and body a few times, shook off Baimei, and leaped towards Ding Youtian. He hurriedly hugged it.
"You!" Jian Ning poked its forehead with his finger. "You really are his youngest son. I think you should be called Ding Guoguo from now on."
Ding Guoguo? What a good name! Guoguo exclaimed happily, expressing her complete acceptance.
It was happy, but Baimei was not. It barked at Jian Ning fiercely a few times. Jian Ning grabbed it and pinched it in her palm. She pulled the tuft of white hair on its forehead and said with a smile: "I can't let you go. You will be called Jian Baimei. When we get back, I will use scissors to cut off this tuft of white hair!"
What?
