Ah Ce looked at Xia Chujian and said, "My benefactor, wouldn't you like to have some? Xiao Mo's skill in making noodle dumpling soup is the best here. Wouldn't you like to try it?"
Xiao Mo said embarrassedly: "Ace, my benefactor only ate one noodle dumpling and was full. I was worried that I didn't cook it well."
A Ce picked up a noodle dumpling with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, and for a moment he showed an intoxicated expression.
I really think these noodles are delicious.
However, he was able to control his facial expressions quite well; this involuntary intoxication was only fleeting.
If Xia Chujian hadn't been paying attention to him, she wouldn't have seen it at all.
Xiao Mo then said, "Ace, is it delicious?"
Ah Ce nodded repeatedly: "Delicious! Delicious!"
As he ate, he said, "These are dumplings made from whole wheat flour. I can eat three bowls of them without adding salt or oil!"
"Xiao Mo, your craftsmanship is getting better and better!"
Xiao Mo narrowed his eyes and smiled.
Xia Chujian sat next to him, his eyes wandering around the earthen-walled house.
This house looked as if it had just been built. The dim light made the yellow mud wall even dimmer.
There is an incense burner on the altar under the wall of the main hall, and two relatively thick red candles on both sides of the incense burner.
There was still a jolly atmosphere in the room.
Xia Chujian pointed at the two red candles.
Seeing this, Xiao Mo smiled bitterly and said, "I'm sorry to have made you laugh, benefactor. Today was supposed to be a good day for me and A Ce to get married."
"It's a pity that I met some beasts..."
Xia Chujian patted her hand to comfort her.
While A Ce was eating the noodles, Xia Chujian took the opportunity to write down his questions.
She found a carbonized dead branch from Xiao Mo's kitchen and began to write on the floor of the main room.
She had a lot of questions about this place, and she took this opportunity to ask them quickly.
[Xia Chujian]: Why is it said that the Shentu family is favored by God?
This is what Lao Mo told her just now.
She was pretending to be mute at the time, so I couldn't ask her in detail.
Xiao Mo sat next to A Ce, looking at the question Xia Chujian had written. She said a little unconfidently, "Is it because his family is watched by a true god?"
Xia Chujian continued to write: What is the true God’s gaze?
Xiao Mo looked at A Ce who was eating noodles next to him.
After taking two bites, A Ce stared at Xia Chujian and said, "The benefactor is not from our Kingdom of Devotion, right?"
"If they are from the Kingdom of Favor, even if they are not from our place, they will know what it means to be a God-Favored One."
Xia Chujian looked at him calmly, neither nodding nor shaking her head, with an attitude of "what's it to you?"
Xiao Mo smiled and said, "It doesn't matter to us where our benefactor is from."
"All we need to know is that our benefactor saved us."
A Ce nodded: "Xiao Mo is right, I shouldn't ask this question."
"But speaking of those favored by God, it's a long story."
"There are three major families of divine favored people in our Kingdom of Favors: the Shentu family, the Sima family, and the Helian family."
"There is also the ruler of the royal city, who claims to rule the world together with the one favored by the gods!"
"As for the God-Favored Family, it is said that in the early days before the Kingdom of Favors was established, this vast area was a barren sandy land."
"Forget about growing crops, not even a blade of grass grows."
"One night, a true god suddenly descended to the world and used his divine power to improve the soil, divide the mountains and rivers, and ensure that this area received sufficient irrigation and ample fertilizer."
A Ce continued, "The true God transformed a wasteland into fertile farmland."
"At that time, there were three families living on this land who happened to witness the true God descend to earth that night and use his divine power to transform the wasteland."
"It is said that at the last moment, when the miracle transformation was completed, the true god exhausted his divine power and split into three parts."
"Those three families, namely the Shentu family, the Sima family, and the Helian family, each obtained three treasures transformed from the body of the True God."
A Ce took the carbonized dead branch from Xia Chujian's hand and drew three shapes on the ground.
It was a helmet, an armored torso, and a set of armored limbs.
A Ce pointed at the three pictures and said, "This is the treasure that the three families obtained."
"What the Shentu family obtained was a helmet made from the head of a true god."
"What the Sima family obtained was the armored torso transformed from the torso of the True God."
"What the Helian family obtained were the armored arms and leg guards made from the limbs of a true god."
"These three treasures are called the Divine Helmet, Divine Armor, and Divine Wings."
"I heard that if these three treasures are combined, they can be combined into a truly invincible artifact that can summon the true god to descend!"
"After these three families obtained these three treasures, they took root in this land."
"They planted crops, and no matter what the weather was like, they could always get a good harvest!"
"Over time, they took all the land here into their own hands."
"Most of the land was directly seized, and a small part was forcibly purchased from local people."
"Not long after, the largest landowners in the entire Kingdom of Dian, aside from the King, were those three families."
"Later, when the ruler established a nation, he had to obtain permission from these three families, and then officially divide this land among them as their territory."
"If the former indigenous people of the territory do not want to become their tenants and slaves, they must leave their homes and this place."
After Ah Ce finished speaking, his face was full of bitterness: "My father and mother are actually from somewhere else."
"My mother married my father, and the lord exercised his right of virginity."
"Later, my father threw the first son my mother gave birth to to death."
