Chapter 165

Yu Tu stayed in the teahouse for a week. During this week, Tian Yan did not update, and Yu Tu's consciousness was not connected to the vest. Buye Hou slept quietly on the recliner, as if he would never wake up.

Xiao Hui hadn't eaten much for a week, and his gas tank-like body seemed to have shrunk.

Yu Tu raised his head from a pile of books. His hair was messy like a chicken's nest and he had dark circles under his eyes. He looked like he was in danger of falling asleep at any time due to lack of sleep.

He really has no other choice.

Because he had been sitting cross-legged on the ground for too long, Yu Tu's legs were numb. He limped to his feet, let out a long sigh, and rearranged the messy books on the ground and put them back in their original places.

No one knows what the problem is with Buyehou, but it's obviously unsolvable now. However, he can't fall behind in the classes he needs to take at school. He has already missed a lot of classes this week.

Yu Tu stared at the Buyehou in the recliner for a while, and finally looked away. He thought in a rather self-destructive way, the teahouse is safe anyway, so just leave it like this for now...

After cleaning up the teahouse and leaving Xiao Hui with enough food to last for many days, Yu Tu squatted down and patiently taught Xiao Hui how to open a food bag, how to open a tin can, and how to use a sealing clip to hold the leftover dog food.

Xiao Hui was not in a good mood and his answer was weak. After Yu Tu finished speaking, he jumped onto the recliner and pressed Buyehou's cold hand under his warm belly.

"Woof~" It barked softly, and its ears and tail drooped down.

The skeleton of the mermaid was coiled on the decorative rack on the wall, and the resentment was wrapped around the skeleton obediently, not at all as dangerous and aggressive as it was on the first day.

"I'm leaving first." Yu Tu pushed open the door of the teahouse, "Take care of yourselves."

After the carved wooden door behind him closed by itself, Yu Tu belatedly remembered a serious problem.

A week ago, he was in a hurry to get out, so he only needed a location teleportation talisman. Now how can he go back from the outer world? Since he started school, he has only come out from the school's official teleportation point once, and unfortunately fell into the spider's nest.

The official transfer point is quite far from here.

Yu Tu took out his cell phone and prepared to book a ticket, thinking that he would first use his vacation time after returning, then catch up on the classes he had missed, and see if there were any special magic spells and potion experiments to do. If there was enough time, he would go to the school library to check and see if there were any clues.

Suddenly, someone patted my shoulder.

Yu Tu was startled and turned around subconsciously, and saw... the emperor's house.

"Scared?" Diwu raised his eyebrows. "Are you so timid, Tuzi?"

Yu Tu pulled his hand down: "It's Patriarch, you are so scary!"

"I'm scary?" Diwu said unconvincedly, "I'm so gentle, elegant, handsome, talented, and beautiful, like a jade tree in the wind..."

Listening to Diwu's series of self-praises without even taking a breath, Yu Tu: "..."

After Diwu finished praising himself, he casually asked, "Are you going home?"

Although the Grass Tribe rarely interacts with humans, it does not mean that they are uninformed. When they received the notification that "a cub of the Grass Tribe was stranded outside", the investigation of Yu Tu was put on the agenda.

Yu Tu sent a message to Di Xiu saying he wanted to take a leave. Even though he covered it up well, his voice still sounded flustered. Without much scrutiny, it was easy to guess that something had happened to the mysterious Buyehou. They didn't deliberately try to find out the secret, but they were still worried after the child had been missing for a week.

Diwu glanced at the closed door of the teahouse and asked again, "Are you going home today?"

Yu Tu shook her head: "I need to go back to school to catch up on the classes I missed. I've been absent for a week."

In Diwu's eyes, the cub, who had just reached adulthood, had a pale face and a dazed look, and was still thinking about going back to school.

Emperor House: "..."

He licked his fangs and made an unhappy "tsk".

"You can go back to school, but first go back to the Herb Clan and take a nap." Diwu grabbed Yu Tu by the back of his collar, as precise as a mother cat holding a kitten. After shaking him a few times, Yu Tu dazedly turned back into his original form of a tea tree seedling. "Or you can choose to go to class as a tea tree seedling."

Diwu saw the tea tree seedlings sway their leaves, and then as if there was a sudden power outage, they fell down with a "snap" and turned into a soft and fluffy piece.

Diwu lifted up the Yu Tu seedling, and the sapling swayed in his hand as soft as a vine.

"You're so tired, and you're still going to class." Diwu complained while taking out the photo stone and recording it. "Be careful when boiling the potion, or you'll fall directly into the crucible and become a sapling stewed in potion."

*

When Yu Tu woke up, he had returned to his room in the Grass Clan. The sleepy tea tree Miaomiao used leaves to open the quilt, got up, and jumped under the bed.

After finding his watch and unlocking it, Yu Tu was horrified to find that he had slept for a day and a night.

He already missed eight days of classes!!!

The tea tree seedling was so frightened that all its branches and leaves exploded, and then it changed back into human form with a "bang". After changing clothes and putting on a watch, it prepared to fly back to class.

When his hand touched the door handle, Yu Tu was suddenly bounced away by a gentle force, and then wrapped in a soft bubble. The bubble slowly floated up and stuck to the ceiling.

Less than a minute later, the bedroom door was pushed open, and the cat-like leader walked in slowly: "Hey~ Tuzai is awake."

He asked with a smile: "What are you playing? Saplings blowing bubbles?"

If looks had power, the Imperial House would now be stabbed with knives under Yu Tu's gaze.

"Don't stare at me like that. You're already asleep. How can I take you back to class?" Diwu's fairy-like face showed an innocent expression. "You know I didn't do anything wrong."

Di Wu really didn't do anything, he just used a little trick to turn Yu Tu back to his original form. When he was in human form, he could still use his willpower to suppress his fatigue. After turning back to his original form, he would only follow his instincts more, so Yu Tu was so sleepy that he directly lost power.

"Chief, I have to go back to class." Yu Tu said with a bitter face, "I really missed a lot of classes!"

Gu Hongying and the others would send him messages every day. In addition to expressing their concern, they would also tell him what they had learned in class every day. Yu Tu felt overwhelmed when he saw the growing learning list.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Diwu's smile faded slightly, and his expression actually looked a little serious. "Whether you learn slowly or quickly, you can't overdraw your health at the cost of it."

While Yu Tu was comatose, they checked his body. In addition to the exhaustion of his spiritual energy and the feeling of fatigue, his mental energy also showed signs of overdraft. If this continued, it would cause irreversible damage.

"You are a child of our Plant Clan. If you have any questions, just tell us directly. Don't hesitate." The seriousness of the Emperor's House didn't last more than a few seconds. "Why worry so much? It's not like all of us are dead."

"You are so young and you put so much pressure on yourself. Be careful or you will always be a dwarf. Ugh!"

Before Di Wu could finish his words, he was silenced by a silencing spell. He turned his head and saw Di Xiu standing outside the door with a gentle smile tinged with murderous intent, Gui Yu with his arms folded, taking pleasure in the misfortune of others, and Zhi Huai who had gone out to travel and got lost and finally returned.

Emperor House: "..."

He didn't come when he was serious about admonishing, but he did come when he wanted to scare the cubs. What a good time!

"Patriarch," Di Xiu said, "if you are free now, you can go and handle the work of connecting with other departments."

The angry patriarch went out angrily.

Di Xiu raised his hand and let the bubbles float down. After the bubbles touched the ground, they made a slight crackling sound and disappeared without a trace.

"Tu Tu, the clan leader is not blaming you." Di Xiu patted his shoulder gently, "He is very worried about you and feels very guilty."

No other cub has a childhood as full of suffering as Yu Tu's, and no other cub has his heart filled with pressure that is enough to crush him soon after he becomes an adult.

Di Xiu took Yu Tu's hand and led him to the table, then opened the bowl of porridge he brought over. A rich aroma filled the room, and Yu Tu's stomach made a cheerful symphony.

They thought that Tu Tu had returned to the Plant Clan and was slowly opening up to them and gaining some trust in them, but when faced with difficulties, he still chose to face them alone.

They are not angry, just sad.

Over the past eighteen years, Yu Tu may have gotten used to handling everything on his own, so the idea of ​​"asking for help" is often the first option to be ruled out.

"I have asked you, elder, to help me ask for leave from school and prepare the location transmission talisman." Yu Tu said, "You also have your own things to do. You can't always worry about me."

Di Xiu stuffed the spoon into his hand and said softly, "Family members won't care about so many things."

Not all efforts require rewards.

Yu Tu bit the spoon, and the hot porridge slid from his throat into his stomach, and it seemed that his cold limbs were warmed up by this warmth.

"It's nothing, actually." Yu Tu said in a low voice, "I'm just a little tired. I'll be fine after a good sleep."

Yu Tu was unwilling to say it, and Di Xiu did not force him. He just took out a well-arranged small box like a magic trick. Inside the box was a stack of positioning and teleportation talismans. Some could be teleported to Miller, some could be teleported to outside the teahouse, and some could be teleported to the Plant Clan. It was a thick stack.

"Take it." Di Xiu said, "If it's not enough, remember to tell me in advance."

People who are loved should be confident.

Because love always feels indebted.

…

Yu Tu ate the porridge and took a box of teleportation talismans, but still failed to return to school successfully.

He received a letter from the Alien Bureau, or more precisely, a letter from [Mirror]. There was an ancient curse pattern drawn on the letter, and only Yu Tu was allowed to read it.

[Mirror] asked him about the current situation of the Lord of Never Night.

The disappearance of Ma Jia happened suddenly. Why did [Jing] ask him at this time? Coincidence?

It was as if there was an invisible thread that connected everything in some way: his strange talent, the "Soul Town" that could only be consumed once in a lifetime, the lost vest, the stopped Tian Yan...

Yu Tu pondered for a long time holding the letter from [Jing], and finally made a bold decision. He would pretend to be a younger generation of Buye Hou who knew the inside story, and communicate with [Jing].

As bait, the reply can be a little less personal, a little more of a riddle———

I listen carefully to the seniors. [Insight into all things] is not my talent. I don’t have time for it.

[Mirror] But I never told Yu Tu that he was listening carefully.
