Chapter 111: Mom
"Wu, I need your help." Xia Youjie couldn't help but clench his fists. His excitement was like a strong wind and huge waves, making it impossible for him to control his thoughts.
As he spoke, black ripples of cursed power appeared behind him. Ferocious and terrifying eyes emerged from the deep darkness like ink, and the ripples vaguely outlined a bizarre figure.
Xia Youjie was very excited, and he was about to release his curse spirit to do something big.
Several cursed spirits sensed Xia Youjie's thoughts and tentatively revealed half of their bodies. For example, the giant deer cursed spirit revealed its head, and the spider webs hanging on its antlers were still fluttering in the wind. The big cockroach cursed spirit also revealed its tentacles, but it had just stepped out half a foot when it was driven back by Xia Youjie.
Because Bai Chuanmu looked at the big cockroach curse spirit and made a disgusted "huh" sound.
Bai Chuanmu has grown a lot now. Isn't he just a two-meter-tall cockroach?! What's there to be afraid of?!
At most, she just disliked it a little bit.
Even the giant snake cursed spirit that Xia Youjie subdued today showed half of its face.
Bai Chuanmu felt that the strange human face mask looked uncomfortable, and the uncanny valley effect was about to occur. However, after seeing the coins on it, he wondered in his heart, can these coins still be used after being taken from the cursed spirit?
Wait, Baichuanmu, you’re not poor, why do you have to be so “thrifty”?
Geto Xiayou showed half of the faces of several powerful cursed spirits he currently possessed. He was not trying to show off or was too excited to control himself. He was just thinking about the evolutionary direction of the cursed spirits.
But these things are secondary now. Geto Suguru looked at Gojo Satoru with sharp eyes. The important thing now is to get the support of his best friend.
Gojo Satoru chuckled and raised his head proudly: "Jie, you really still need to rely on me, but don't worry, I will help you, after all, we are close friends! As for the reward for hiring me, the strongest person, you have to give me half of your snacks in the future."
"Hahaha..." Geto Suguru laughed in silence. Most of his snacks originally belonged to Gojo Satoru.
Gojo Satoru raised an eyebrow: "Why, you don't want to? If half is too much, then give me two thirds!"
"Okay," of course Geto Suguru knew which was more, one-half or two-thirds, but he didn't point it out. He knew Gojo Satoru should know the difference, so he said it on purpose, "It doesn't matter if I give them all to you... um, but..."
"No need to give it all to me. I can't eat that much," Gojo Satoru waved his hand. He was very curious about what Xia Yujie wanted to say but didn't say. He asked, "But what?"
Xia Yujie coughed lightly, but couldn't help asking: "Satoru, you should know that two-thirds is more than one-half, right?"
It's not that he doesn't trust his best friend, he's just a little curious.
"...Jie, do you have any strange misunderstandings about me?" Gojo Satoru gritted his teeth and said viciously, "Do you think I'm an ignorant idiot?"
Xia Youjie shifted his gaze to the right and said with a smile: "Of course not."
Gojo Satoru gritted his teeth: "Don't be perfunctory with me! Don't think I didn't see the smile hidden in your eyes and the corners of your mouth! Do you still want my help?"
Xia Yujie laughed awkwardly and said, "Of course I want to. Wu is my indispensable friend. I don't have any other intentions. I'm just a little curious. Wu, did you need to learn mathematics when you were in the Gojo family?"
Gojo Satoru rolled his eyes and snorted, "You still have to learn... Don't think that just because I didn't go to school, I really won't study anymore."
Xia Youjie smiled and nodded: "Yes, you still need to take tutoring lessons, which are quite good, one-on-one teaching."
Gojo Satoru curled his lips and put his hands in his pockets: "But I am still a little curious about what ordinary people's academies are like. The academy for sorcerers doesn't count. The Jujutsu High School can't be considered an ordinary school, that is... the kind you and Naoko are attending now."
Baichuanmu interrupted and said, "So Wu, you have to study hard. When you are in junior high school, you can probably go to classes together. Even if you can't go through the whole junior high school together, at least you can go through the third year of junior high school together."
Gojo Satoru blinked, feeling a little expectant, and... by that time he should have learned the reversal technique with the help of Baichuan Mu, right?
The more he thought about it, the more he looked forward to it. He hoped that day would come sooner.
Future Gojo Satoru: No, you don’t want to.
"But, Jie, your cursed spirits..." Baichuan Mu looked at Xia Youjie with a wry smile. The cursed power ripples behind him had not yet dissipated, and the terrifying cursed spirits were stirring inside. She was not afraid of them now, but she would feel uncomfortable being stared at. Moreover, since Xia Youjie opened the dark cursed power ripples, the temperature in the room dropped by several degrees, and there was a foul smell.
Bai Chuanmu sighed softly: "Jie, why don't you put away your cursed spirits first? They have half of their heads exposed... I have to say in advance that I am not afraid, but I still find them creepy. Don't you two feel that the temperature in the room has dropped a little?"
"Oh, sorry, Mom, I was a little too excited." Xia Youjie came to his senses and took back all the cursed spirits whose heads were half exposed, and almost took in the cute cats and dogs as well.
Xia Youjie also let the flame curse spirit in the fireplace burn a little more vigorously, and soon the whole house became warm.
Bai Chuanmu couldn't help but smile contentedly as she looked at the flame curse spirit in the fireplace. She wanted to curl up on the sofa, roasting the flame curse spirit while petting the cats and dogs.
Curse spirits are really good things. This fire curse spirit alone saves her a lot of heating bills every year.
Gojo Satoru stroked his chin. He had just stared at the giant snake curse spirit for a long time, thinking about something. He waited until Xiayou Jie put it away before he spoke: "Jie, speaking of which, those curse spirit jades you just fed to the cats and dogs were all eggs near the quasi-first-level curse spirit we killed today, right? Those tiny heads?"
"Yes... but not entirely," said Xia Youjie. He recalled for a moment and said with some distress, "I seem to have accidentally made the cursed spirit born from the store manager into a cursed spirit jade and gave it to the cats and dogs to eat."
Xia Youjie also searched through all his curse jades, and searched carefully several times, but he couldn't find the pineapple pizza curse jade. He touched his empty backpack and found that there was no curse jade left. He had just been looking for suitable curse jades to feed the cats and dogs, but the situation became more and more messy.
Gojo Satoru smiled and said, "That's good. I was worried that only the tiny head born from the giant snake cursed spirit would have that effect. Now it seems that all cursed spirit jades can be used?"
Xia Youjie said: "Yes, but it is better to feed the same type of cursed spirit jade, which makes it easier for the cursed spirit to absorb the power inside."
This was the information that Xia Youjie had just received, but he was still obsessed with the pineapple pizza curse spirit and sighed, "It's a bit of a pity."
Gojo Satoru asked in confusion, "What a shame? Are you still missing that pineapple pizza curse spirit?"
Xiayou Jie nodded: "Yeah, Wu, don't you like pineapple pizza?"
“Hey, even if I want to eat pineapple pizza, I won’t eat that pineapple pizza cursed spirit,” Gojo Satoru rolled his eyes. He thought for a moment and said, “If you want to get another one, let’s go to that pizza shop and talk to the manager. It’s best to bring the finished pineapple pizza to him. Maybe we can get a third-grade, ah, no, special-grade cursed spirit!”
Geto Xiayou also felt a little tempted, but he still wanted to do things down to earth, because Geto Xiayou clearly understood that it was too dangerous for the two of them to deal with the special-grade cursed spirit now.
Bai Chuanmu hesitated for a moment and advised: "This is not a good idea..."
Is this too cruel to the store manager?
Xiayou Jie nodded and said calmly, "Satoru, my mother is right. Special grade is still too dangerous for the two of us."
Baichuanmu: ...Wait, I feel sorry for the manager!
Gojo Satoru pondered for a while and agreed, "That's true... Then bring a glass?
Ieiri Glass:?
Even Ieiri Nozomi didn't know she had this ability.
Xia Youjie smiled helplessly and shrugged: "No way, Gaozi doesn't have any fighting ability."
Gojo Satoru shook his finger and said in a pretentious tone, "You don't understand, Jie."
Xia Youjie raised his eyebrows slightly: "Hmm?"
"I'm the DPS!" Gojo Satoru pointed at himself, then at Geto Suguru, "You're the support!"
Xia Youjie murmured in his heart, how did I become a supporting role?
But on second thought, his cursed spirits have all kinds of abilities, some are good at attacking, some are good at defending, some are good at controlling, and some are good at high-speed movement that can take him to dodge. He is also good as an all-round assistant, and who says that assistants have weak combat power, but...
Xia Youjie thought again that if he wanted to be called "all-powerful", he would have to master the reversal technique.
Gojo Satoru waved his hand and pointed in a direction: "With the help of Nitroko, our team will be fully capable!"
Baichuan Mu thought about it for a while, then took Gojo Satoru's hand and asked him to point in a different direction. Facing Gojo Satoru's confused look, she explained, "The Glass House should be in this direction."
As expected, Baichuan Mu got another big eye roll from Gojo Satoru. He complained, "Hey, Aunt Mu, what are you focusing on so strangely? The direction is not important. Anyway, it's enough for you two to know what I mean."
Bai Chuanmu shrugged: "Well, what about me? Can I be considered a logistics person?"
Gojo Satoru said, "Auntie Mu... you are an ordinary person who doesn't know any spells. You are not qualified to be either a 'window' or an assistant supervisor, right? Oh, a 'window' should be just fine. After all, you have a pair of cursed glasses, so you can still see the cursed spirits."
Bai Chuanmu blinked, pointed at himself expectantly and said, "If that's the case..."
"Yes, that's right," Gojo Satoru nodded at her, and then, under Baichuanmu's expectant eyes, he gave her the answer she wanted, "You are the legendary behind-the-scenes mastermind, the 'ordinary person' who will control the entire sorcery world in the future~"
Baichuanmu:……?
Wait, this is not the answer she wants! She just wants to be a logistics person, or a background person! Why should she, an ordinary person without any spells, get involved in your business?
The two Xiao Di couldn't understand Bai Chuanmu's confusion, and they happily started a new round of discussion.
Xia Youjie said helplessly: "Okay, Wu, don't be like this, the 'game' hasn't officially started yet, and my mother has to be hidden, don't expose her."
"I know," Gojo Satoru scratched his ears and said impatiently, "And am I the kind of unreliable person? I won't say it in front of other people. At most... at most, when Nozomi is around, Nozomi can be trusted. After all, she is recognized by Aunt Mu. In this case, Uncle Ye Moth is also in this category?"
"Although Mr. Yaga is trustworthy, it is not convenient to tell him too many things," Xiayou Jie chuckled and shook his head, his eyes becoming deep, "He is also restricted by the upper echelons of the magic world. We are in the vortex, and sooner or later, we will step into that vortex."
"I have already entered it," Gojo Satoru said dimly, "When you awakened the technique and decided to become a sorcerer, you have already entered it."
Xia Youjie was stunned, looked up at Baichuanmu, and murmured, "So, mom, you said those things to me at the beginning, is it because of this?"
Baichuanmu narrowed her eyes, unable to remember what Xiayoujie was referring to specifically. She had said a lot to Xiayoujie, such as not to eat snacks given by strangers, to listen carefully in class, not to be picky about food, etc. There were many words like this, but now Xiayoujie should be referring to things related to sorcerers... What are the things related to sorcerers?
Would she accidentally say something that shouldn't be said in the original book?
Baichuan really couldn't remember, so he finally chose to smile and keep silent, letting the two little Di think about it themselves.
Xia Youjie really showed an expression of "I see". He nodded thoughtfully and sighed: "Mom really has good intentions..."
Baichuanmu: ...Yes, that's right! I did it with all my best intentions!
Gojo Satoru raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then Jie, do you regret it? Don't you think it's good to be an ordinary person?"
"Of course I won't regret it, because now I have the power to protect my mother, and I can use the power I have to do more things, the things I want to do, isn't this a good thing?" Xia Youjie smiled and said, "Besides, if I didn't become a sorcerer, I might not have met you."
Gojo Satoru chuckled smugly.
However, Gojo Satoru's next words made him look downcast. He continued, "If I hadn't become a sorcerer, I wouldn't have pursued the aura of that second-level cursed spirit in the summer when I was five years old. Without my help, Satoru might have been in danger."
“Huh?” Gojo Satoru said unhappily. He raised his thumb and pointed at himself. “I am the strongest. Even if you were not there at that time, I could still deal with that cursed spirit.”
"Haha... Of course I believe that Wu can deal with that cursed spirit, even if he is alone," Xia Youjie chuckled twice. After teasing Gojo Wu, he also knew how to coax him, "Because Wu is very strong. Even when he just awakened the technique, Wu was still very strong."
"You have good vision," Gojo Satoru raised his head happily after being praised, but he was not completely appeased. "But, what did you mean by what you said just now? You clearly didn't believe me, and then you suddenly changed your mind."
Xia Yujie narrowed his eyes slightly, but at this time, his narrowed eyes were not like those of a black-bellied fox, but a gentle smile. He said in a gentle tone: "But, Wu might get hurt, right? I don't want Wu to get hurt. Fortunately, I chose to become a sorcerer, and fortunately, I met you in the summer of that year."
Gojo Satoru seemed a little embarrassed. He snorted, scratched his head, and said in a deliberately disdainful tone: "Really... How can a sorcerer not get hurt?"
"I know, but it's better not to get hurt if you can. Mom and I will be worried about you, Satoru," said Xia Youjie with a smile. He tilted his head slightly and looked at Gojo Satoru, "So, Satoru, you can also try to rely on me. I need Satoru's help. Satoru, you need my help too, right?"
Gojo Satoru curled his lips and said reluctantly: "That's fine..."
Xia Yujie looked at the somewhat awkward Gojo Satoru and couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Hahaha..."
Gojo Satoru gritted his teeth, feeling a little unhappy.
"Hey, I only agreed because you were afraid of being alone and said you needed help!"
"Yeah, but I'm not alone. I have a very good friend!"
