Chapter 1021 My Husband
Zhu Chuideng nodded and accepted Ye Xiaoman's reward.
There happened to be a place he had always wanted to go, but for various reasons he had delayed it for many years.
Ye Xiaoman said with satisfaction: "You tell me a place name."
Zhu Chuideng walked to the end of the cable car, put Ye Xiaoman down, and took out a map of the ghost world from his arms.
The landscape on the map is three-dimensional, with many rolling mountains winding like dragons and snakes, and the vast sea of blood condensed into a small pool of water on it.
The map used by Zhu Chuideng is different from ordinary maps. As the lord of the ghost realm, he can jump directly between places through the map.
Zhu Chuideng took a small piece of land from under Huangquan Ferry and placed it in his palm. There were green trees and a small hill surrounding it, but it was deserted. A cemetery on the hill was densely packed with tombstones.
There was a nostalgic feeling in Zhu Chuideng's eyes: "I want to go back to my hometown."
Ye Xiaoman asked: "So are we going to the ghost realm?"
"No," Zhu Chuideng said, "I want to bring Chepan Village back to its original place."
"Oh!" Ye Xiaoman remembered that Chepan Village was Zhu Chuideng's hometown. After the villagers were eaten by the Taotie beast, Zhu Chuideng turned into a ghost. Chepan Village became a dangerous place and disappeared from its original place. It was incorporated into the ghost domain and became part of the territory.
Zhu Chuideng said, "I have purified the resentment of Chepan Village. The villagers' last wish is to return to their roots."
The land has recovered its vitality and is suitable for being sent back to where the sun shines.
With a new round of reproduction and development, bustle and prosperity will return to the dead earth, and new stories will be born again.
Ye Xiaoman was happy for Zhu Chuideng when she saw him let go of his painful past.
She said, "Do you remember where the village was originally?"
Chepan Village was suddenly separated from the world, and the earthquake caused it greatly changed the local appearance. Thousands of years have passed, and many mountains and water sources have disappeared from the map, and the place names have changed several times.
It is a bit difficult for Zhu Chuideng to find his birthplace.
Zhu Chuideng smiled bitterly and said, "I only have a vague impression, I just remember it's roughly in a certain direction."
"It's okay," Ye Xiaoman said optimistically. "We'll first go to the big place you remember, then look through the local county annals, hire someone to help us find out, and check the smaller places one by one. We'll find it one day."
Just go.
Ye Xiaoman took on the side quest of building the Chuideng.
She returned to her room and left a letter for Aunt Luan and the men, saying that she would go out for a walk with Zhu Chuideng first, and would go home "when the time comes." She did not write the specific time.
She also specifically told the men left at home not to contact her during this period.
The fishes were too resourceful, especially Xiao Chujing, the son of luck. Ye Xiaoman was very worried that as long as they could contact her or see the scenery behind her during a video call, they would be able to immediately deduce where she was.
After leaving a letter, Ye Xiaoman left with Zhu Chuideng in a leisurely manner.
With the help of Zhu Chuideng, they successfully left the demon world three days later.
The destination is a place called Yanchouzhou.
The places in the human world are divided according to the administrative units of counties, states, prefectures, roads, counties, and villages. Zhu Chuideng remembers that Chepan Village belonged to Julong Prefecture and Anju County more than 3,000 years ago, and was next to Wenbai Village.
According to his investigation, more than half of the territory of Julongzhou has now been incorporated into Yanchouzhou.
So the two of them first arrived in Yanchou Prefecture and checked the local chronicles.
"Uncle Deng, come here quickly!"
Ye Xiaoman happily put away her flying boat, blended into the crowd on the street, and waved to Zhu Chuideng who was following behind her.
Yanchouzhou is located at the junction of the human world, the demon realm and the devil world. Therefore, people from the three realms live together here, and the street buildings are also a mix of styles. You can see the tree houses of the demon clan, as well as the rough houses made of sand and concrete in the devil world.
Mortals and monks from all over the six realms were walking leisurely on the road. Among them, there were many mixed-race people. The customs and habits seemed quite different from those of the human world, which was quite interesting.
The four seasons here are distinct and the land is fertile, making it very suitable for growing fruits and vegetables. Many merchants come here to purchase goods, and the majority of the cultivators are alchemists. Many alchemists take advantage of the geographical location and contract land here to grow spiritual herbs.
Yanchouzhou is currently preparing for the Alchemy Conference which will be held in three days. In addition to lectures given by alchemy masters, there will also be alchemy competitions of all sizes. Promotional slogans for this Alchemy Conference are hung everywhere in the streets, and many alchemy shops are advertising.
Ye Xiaoman and Zhu Chuideng walked side by side on the road.
They are celebrities now, but they still have to disguise themselves when they go out, trying to make their faces look ordinary based on their original facial features.
In the eyes of others, they are just ordinary cultivators, but because of their good natural foundation, no matter how ordinary they are, they are still the best among ordinary people. Their facial features are still eye-catching. The man is tall and the woman is full of energy. The loving look of them walking hand in hand attracted a lot of attention.
After landing, the first thing to do is to find a house.
They decided to stay in the local area for a long time, so they did not stay in the inn, but planned to rent a comfortable house.
To rent a house, look for local real estate agents, who have control over the housing resources in the entire area.
Zhu Chuideng has made an appointment with Fang Yazi to view the house.
Ye Xiaoman asked, "If we walk slowly, will we miss the meeting with the dealer?"
Zhu Chuideng saw that Ye Xiaoman wanted to go shopping, so she said, "It's still early, let's walk slowly."
Ye Xiaoman immediately excitedly pulled Zhu Chuideng and rushed into the crowd again.
The streets are full of vendors selling herbs and pills.
Ye Xiaoman hadn't traveled for a long time. She happily walked around the stalls, occasionally relying on her good eyesight to buy some dying spiritual herbs at a low price. She could make a good profit by repairing them.
Gradually, she was the one picking the goods in front, and Zhu Chuideng followed behind her, his hands full of the small things Ye Xiaoman bought.
Ye Xiaoman was happy, and Zhu Chuideng was infected by her. The melancholy of returning to his hometown dissipated. He took a deep breath of the air of the world. There were crowds of people and laughter. These were the old days he missed.
Zhu Chuideng felt happy after a long time.
Ye Xiaoman bought a big bag of snacks at the dried fruit shop, stuffed a piece of dried strawberry into Zhu Chuideng's mouth, and told him with a smile.
"We're tired of shopping, let's go look at houses... Is it delicious?"
"tasty."
"Ah—open your mouth, I'll give you another piece."
The two arrived at the residential area in the city. Fang Yazi was already waiting at the entrance of the alley. She was a middle-aged female cultivator who looked very capable. She had a bunch of keys hanging on her belt, and the keys were engraved with the logo of the Huantian Chamber of Commerce.
Ye Xiaoman sighed that the Huantian Chamber of Commerce was truly omnipresent, even covering the real estate agency services.
Fang Yazi led the way in front, chatting with them as they walked.
"Are you two sharing a house together? What is your relationship?"
Fang Yazi explained with a smile, "I'm not being nosy. The Chamber of Commerce stipulates that for every property we rent out, we must fill in the customer's information on the transaction registration form to avoid future disputes."
"Knowing your relationship, I can recommend a house more accurately for both of you."
Zhu Chuideng looked at Ye Xiaoman with a smile. He let her answer this question. The person who had the right to decide their relationship was Ye Xiaoman, not him.
Ye Xiaoman smiled. As far as she knew, the employees of Huantian Chamber of Commerce were all shrewd people who were good at socializing, including the unscrupulous businessman Qing Yuanhu whom she knew.
She winked mysteriously at Fang Yazi and said, "Guess."
Fang Yazi laughed heartily.
She has trained her eyesight in this line of work.
One could tell at a glance from Ye Xiaoman's robes and the protective magic weapon she wore that she was either rich or noble.
Zhu Chuideng is an extremely handsome man. Compared with Ye Xiaoman or other well-dressed men passing by on the street, his clothes are much simpler and more low-key. He is carrying a lot of things in his hands and looks like Ye Xiaoman's follower.
Ye Xiaoman is lively and outgoing, like a young girl who has not experienced much of the world, while Zhu Chuideng is calm and steady, a mature man. There is a big age difference between them... Fang Yazi rolled his eyes, "You are the eldest daughter of a wealthy family. This should be your bodyguard, right?"
In fact, she could see that they had a close relationship, but she didn't dare to ask if they were a couple. This was also the tact of the employees of Huantian Chamber of Commerce.
It's hard to say. Some rich women just like to keep gigolos. The taciturn and calm male bodyguards like Zhu Chuideng are the most popular among them. But he is just a toy after all. Rich women will be unhappy if you call him a partner.
Zhu Chuideng and Fang Yazi heard Ye Xiaoman laughing again.
Zhu Chuideng felt Ye Xiaoman holding his arm, and he heard her say crisply:
"This is my husband."
