Chapter 26
Xiao Xia Youjie is on summer vacation.
This year she plans to take Xiao Xia Youjie back to her hometown to visit her parents.
Parents?
Bai Chuanmu pursed her lips, feeling a bit complicated. Whether it was herself before the time travel or herself after the time travel, parents were relatively distant words to her.
This made her a little nervous.
"Mom, are you tired?" Xiao Xia Youjie, who was sitting next to her, tilted his head and looked at Bai Chuanmu, "Mom, you can lie on the table and take a nap. I will take good care of the luggage!"
Hearing what Xiao Xia Youjie said, Bai Chuanmu couldn't help but yawn. She got up at 3:30 in the morning today because she was a fool...
Ahem, because she bought the ticket for the wrong time. She thought she bought a ticket for 4pm, but ended up buying one for 4am. She only found out the night before she was to depart that she had bought the wrong ticket, and it was too late to refund or exchange it, so she just went with the mistake.
Xiao Xia Youjie got on the train almost in his sleep, and woke up after driving for three or four hours. After a quick bite, he ate the sandwich made by Bai Chuanmu for breakfast. For lunch... he could only buy the boxed lunch on the train.
She bought a slow green train, and it was expected to arrive around 1:00 p.m.
Private Marseille, she is a dumb beauty.
But it wasn't that bad, at least she could enjoy the scenery along the way. But now Baichuanmu needed to catch up on some sleep. She yawned and said, "Then Xiaojie's mother should sleep for a while."
"Yeah," Xiao Xia Youjie opened his backpack and took out a monkey pillow from it, "Mom, sleep with this as a pillow."
"Okay~ Xiaojie is really foresighted." Baichuanmu took the monkey pillow. His hands wouldn't go numb when he slept with it.
They didn't bring much luggage, so one backpack was enough for the mother and son respectively. It mainly contained some clothes for changing. In the remaining space, Xiao Xia Youjie put a few of his favorite dolls in it, including a monkey pillow and a Pokémon figurine.
Of course I also brought summer homework. The kindergarten didn’t assign much homework. In addition to writing a diary every day, there were only ten pages of math problems.
As for the gifts for her parents, they have been sent back by Baichuanmu by express delivery. Most of them are food and daily necessities, which are quite practical. She also bought two new sets of clothes for each of her parents.
Bai Chuanmu lay on the table and slept for a while until noon. Her biological clock was still on time and woke her up at lunchtime.
For her lunch box, she bought two servings of curry chicken chop rice. It was a bit expensive and the taste was average. There were only five pieces of chicken chop in each serving, and most of it was potatoes. The seasoning was a bit salty, but it was nutritionally balanced. It also came with half a boiled egg, a few broccoli florets and a few carrots.
Xiao Xia Youjie was not picky about food and he finished all the vegetables, eggs and meat obediently. However, the portion of the lunch box was a bit too much for him, so he only ate half of the rice and did not waste the rest!
Baichuanmu silently watched the rice disappearing out of thin air, took out his magic glasses and looked at it. Sure enough, the cat and dog were lying on the lunch box and trying to show off their rice. Xiaohei stood beside the table, looking down at the cat and dog eating.
Because Cat and Dog don’t look that scary and are a bit ugly and cute, they became Baichuanmu’s favorite cursed spirits and also Xiaoxia Youjie’s most favored cursed spirits. He would feed them food from time to time.
Fortunately, the passengers on the other side went to the dining car, otherwise, this kind of supernatural incident of rice disappearing out of thin air would scare them. But can cursed spirits eat?
Hmm...it seems like they can eat, although most cursed spirits eat humans...
Hiss...is this a joke from hell?
Ninety-nine percent hellish and one percent funny.
While thinking about this, Bai Chuanmu picked up carrots and wanted to feed them to the cats and dogs.
"Ahem." Xiao Xia Youjie coughed and reminded, "Mom, the kindergarten teacher said that we can't be picky about food."
"Mom, I just..." Bai Chuanmu said guiltily, "I'm not picky about food. I also like carrots! But I only eat carrots in the fish-flavored shredded pork!"
Xiao Xia Youjie looked at Bai Chuanmu with an extremely serious and determined look. Although he didn't say anything, it seemed as if he had said everything.
Baichuanmu: QAQ
In order to set a good example for her children, she ate the remaining few carrots.
Only then did Xiao Xia Youjie reveal a satisfied smile.
After lunch and a short rest, they finally arrived at their destination. Their hometown is quite remote and there are buses that depart early and late. Their options now are either to wait for the evening bus or rent a car, but the fare will be more expensive.
But after Baichuanmu told Xiaoxia Youjie about the two options and asked for his opinion, another option emerged.
"Mom, I have a flying curse spirit! Let's ride it over!" Xiao Xia Youjie raised his hand and summoned a flying curse spirit, introducing it to Baichuanmu, "It's called a ghost fish, and its flying speed is quite fast. It feels like the evolution of a small fish."
This suggestion is also acceptable. Her hometown is not like a big city. It is sparsely populated and she won't attract attention if she is careful.
Bai Chuanmu put on the spell-bound glasses and saw that the ghost fish was half the size of a car, suspended in the air. The ghost fish was very far away from the small fish, like a dark cloud, looking quite fluffy. Its face looked very strange and incongruous, as if it was wearing a ghost mask. If it weren't for the fish-like fins, it might have looked more like a sheep.
"Do you want to sit on this?" Bai Chuanmu reached out and touched it. It was not as soft as she imagined, but hard instead.
"There are other options," Xiao Xia Youjie hesitated, "but the others... Mom may not like them very much, because they are all related to insects."
The child has grown up and knows that his mother is afraid of insect-type cursed spirits!
But...actually she is a little afraid of most cursed spirits.
"Then take the ghost fish over!" Bai Chuanmu said, "But, will I suddenly fall down while sitting there?"
Baichuanmu has also tried several times to contact the cursed spirit subdued by Xiaoxia Youjie. Sometimes he can touch it, sometimes he can't, and sometimes he has a vague feeling, it's like... quite metaphysical?
As for wild cursed spirits, with Xiao Xia Youjie and Xiao Hei around her, she really has never come into contact with them.
"I'm here to protect mom, she won't fall suddenly, don't worry!" Xiao Xia Youjie said, patting his chest.
"Okay." Bai Chuanmu certainly believed in his own cub.
They flew to the vicinity of their hometown on the Ghost Fish, and then walked the last short distance by themselves. However, after getting off the Ghost Fish, Xiao Xia Youjie remained silent and kept looking back towards the mountains.
Baichuanmu said: "What's wrong, Xiaojie?"
She used her cursed glasses to observe and did not find any wild cursed spirits, but Xiao Xia Youjie's reaction made her feel that there was something in the mountains and forests over there.
"There is the breath of a cursed spirit over there."
And it was more powerful than any cursed spirit he had encountered before.
"Then mom will go with you to catch the cursed spirit first?"
Xiao Xia Youjie shook his head: "No, I can do it myself, Mom, haven't you seen grandpa and grandma for a long time?"
After Xiao Xia Youjie greeted his grandparents, he hurried to the place where he felt the breath of the curse spirit. He walked through the trees and jungle. In order to avoid alerting the enemy, Xiao Xia Youjie did not summon the curse spirit, but carefully controlled and concealed his breath and slowly walked into the depths of the forest.
"Hey! Little kid!" A voice came from above my head. Although it sounded like a child's voice, the tone was not very friendly.
"Huh?" Xiao Xia Youjie looked up in confusion, and looked upwards in the direction of the voice. Through the gaps between the leaves, he saw a pair of blue eyes like cat's eyes.
It was a boy about the same age as him, with white hair and blue eyes as clear as the sky. He wore a snow-white kimono with blue dragonflies printed on it. He looked like an elf walking out of the mountains, but unfortunately, this "elf" had a mouth.
"Get away from me! Don't delay me from exorcising the cursed spirit!"
Xiao Xia Youjie: =~=?
Who is this guy? He deserves a beating!
