Chapter 42: The 42nd Mom
"I heard," Baichuan's father said mysteriously, "that there were several strange pits on the mountain, and some trees were destroyed, as if something had exploded, but there were no signs of burning... Are there aliens or something? Otherwise, there is no way to explain those strange pits."
Konishi Yujie nudged the "alien" Kogojo Satoru with his elbow, earning a slight snort from him.
Baichuan's mother rolled her eyes and said, "Aliens? You are so fanciful. Can you be more reliable? Maybe it was caused by some large wild animal."
Now Gojo Satoru has been reduced from an "alien" to a "large beast", and is secretly laughed at by the black-bellied fox.
"Hey," Xiao Gojo Satoru lowered his voice, "Jie, don't forget that you also have a part of the 'contribution' here!"
Xiao Xia Youjie spread his hands innocently, but he couldn't remain innocent for long.
Baichuan's mother continued, "But I also saw some small animals such as birds and beasts running out of the forest. I don't know what frightened them... Oh, I heard someone vaguely saw a super-large insect, as big as a head. Hiss - it sounds scary and unusual. I wonder if it escaped from some scientific research institution that studies strange things."
Xiao Xia Youjie's smile froze for a moment, and then he was also mocked by Xiao Gojo Satoru: "Ha - now you have a share of aliens and large beasts, and you have to be called a mad scientist."
"Wu, shh...speak softly..." Xiao Xia Youjie said hurriedly.
Baichuan's father and mother's eyes fell on the two of them.
"Hmm? Xiaojie and Xiaowu, what are you talking about?"
"Come to think of it, have you ever been to the mountains to play? Did you encounter any danger?"
Xiao Xia Youjie shrank his head, feeling very guilty, and racked his brains to think of how to explain.
Kogojo Satoru didn't care at all. If Koga Yugetsu and Baichuan Mu hadn't told him not to reveal the affairs of the world of sorcery to ordinary people, he would have told the truth long ago.
In the end, it was Bai Chuanmu who rescued them. After cutting the melon, Bai Chuanmu handed each of them a piece of melon and said, "They are both suffering from chuunibyou. Don't worry about them."
Universal explanation - Chuunibyou!
Xiao Xia Youjie breathed a sigh of relief and tried to hide his guilty conscience by eating melon.
But Gojo Satoru was not satisfied with this hasty explanation, but for the sake of benefiting from it, he accepted it reluctantly.
"They are only five years old..." Baichuan's mother sighed.
Baichuanmu said: "Mom, your tone makes it sound like Chuunibyou is some incurable disease..."
The consequence of talking too much was that Baichuan's mother hit her on the head. Baichuanmu let out a cry, rubbed his head, and sat aside obediently to eat the melon. He also fed a little bit of melon rind to the cats and dogs. Yes, only the rind, she wanted to eat the melon flesh.
Silly cats and dogs are also quite happy eating melon rinds.
"I hope it's not a large wild beast... In any case, for safety reasons, Xiaojie and Xiaowu, you two should not go to the mountains to play anymore, lest you really encounter any danger." Baichuan's father warned.
Xiao Xia Youjie and Xiao Gojo Satoru nodded.
Xiao Xia Youjie whispered: "Wu, you actually listen to me?"
"Tsk," Xiao Gojo Satoru rolled his eyes, "I don't want that... At most I won't use 'Cang' anymore, or I can find a place farther away."
Xiao Xia Youjie smiled and said, "I thought you were afraid of the grapes grown by my grandfather!"
Then, Xiao Xia Youjie was glared at by Xiao Gojo Satoru again, and half of his watermelon was snatched away by him.
Baichuanmu gave half of his to Xiaoxia Youjie: "I can't eat that much. I have to eat less cold food these days."
Xiao Xia Youjie smiled sweetly: "Thank you, mom."
"If you can't eat it, why don't you give it to me?" Gojo Satoru, who loves sweets, said confidently, "Jie is not a real sweets lover."
"If you accept me as your godmother, I will give you some."
"You stinky woman, you want to... ah!"
Xiao Gojo Satoru rubbed the area where Xiao Hei had hit him and left a bruise. He glared at the third-level cursed spirit fiercely. If it hadn't been for the fact that Jie had worked hard to subdue it by eating extremely unpalatable cursed spirit jade, he would definitely have been exorcised by this thing.
Baichuanmu chuckled. Although she was not wearing the cursed glasses now, she could see Gojo Satoru's reaction and guess what happened. The unlucky kid was bullied by Xiaohei again, right?
He was the strongest man, but when he was a child, he was bullied by a third-level cursed spirit.
When in doubt, take pictures first. Baichuanmu took out his cell phone and took a lot of pictures at Xiao Gojo Satoru.
Baichuan's mother said to Xiao Wu Tiao Wu: "Xiao Wu, I'm not saying anything to you, but you should be more careful with your language, otherwise you will suffer a great loss in the future."
"No way," Gojo Satoru snorted, "I'm really powerful! I can't possibly suffer a big loss!"
"Look, didn't Mumu hit you on the forehead? Isn't this a disadvantage?" Baichuan's mother said, "I'm not saying anything bad to you, Mumu, but you can't hit a child on the forehead."
Baichuanmu:……?
She never expected that one day, she would have to take the blame for the cursed spirit, and...
"Mom, didn't you just hit me on the head, too?"
"That's different!"
Xiao Gojo Satoru showed a smug expression and looked at Baichuan Mu provocatively.
"What if he gets knocked silly?!" Baichuan's mother said righteously, "This child is... ahem."
Although Baichuan's mother didn't finish her words, Baichuan Mu added thoughtfully: "You're not very smart anyway?"
Kogojo Satoru:? ? ?
"You, you, you! What do you mean, you little bitch... Awooo!" Xiao Gojo Satoru was hit on the head again by Xiao Hei.
Maomaowu felt wronged, but he didn't say it.
Xiao Xia Youjie ate melon in silence, ignoring the silent accusations from his best friend.
Xiao Gojo Satoru pursed his lips and said, "I...I want to run away from home!"
"...Aren't you running away from home?" Xiao Xia Youjie silently revealed the truth, then stroked his chin thoughtfully and said, "It seems that what grandma said does make sense..."
Little Gojo Satoru is unhappy and he is going to make a fuss!
Xiao Gojo Satoru turned around and beat Xiao Hei up severely. Xiao Hei didn't get any orders and was used as a scratching board by Mao Mao Satoru to vent his anger.
If Xiao Hei was smarter, he might say, "Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt has its creditor. Why don't you find two people with knives to bully the "knife"? Is this what he is thinking? What does he know?"
There was nothing he could do about it. Little Gojo Satoru unconsciously became a little "biased" towards these two people and was willing to join in the fun with them.
Baichuan’s mother and father must also be included in this “biased” selection.
But Xiao Hei didn't know, and he squatted in the corner feeling aggrieved.
Moreover, his master wanted to thank him and comfort him. Xiao Xia Youjie looked at Xiao Gojo Satoru helplessly: "Satoru, don't be angry... But thank you for not exorcising it. I was still a little worried just now."
At least... at least it wasn't exorcised, right?
Xiao Gojo Satoru snorted softly, and after venting his anger on the cat scratching board, he felt much better: "If it weren't for the fact that you worked so hard to tame the cursed spirit, I wouldn't let it go!"
The three adults watched the two cubs playing around the "air".
Baichuan's father hesitated several times before finally speaking: "Well, Mumu, do you think Xiaojie and Xiaowu...is this really okay?"
Bai Chuanmu's eyes wandered around, and he said, "That's it, middle..."
Baichuan's mother interrupted her: "I know, isn't it just about Chuunibyou? Xiaomu, you can't use this excuse to fool us every time."
Bai Chuanmu widened his eyes. Was he discovered?
The two cubs also stopped fighting and looked at the three adults.
"Are Xiaojie and Xiaowu rehearsing some script?"
"...There is a Dihua script... Wait, Mom, why do you think this?"
"Don't you think Xiaojie and Xiaowu have great acting talent? They can act so well even facing the air, especially Xiaowu. Just now I really thought Xiaowu was hitting something we couldn't see!" Baichuan's mother gave the two cubs a thumbs up, "Amazing! This is incredible talent!"
Baichuan's father also nodded and praised: "I wonder if your kindergarten has any drama performances. Xiaojie and Xiaowu will definitely be the protagonists, right? They must have won a lot of red flowers, right?"
Xiao Xia Youjie and Xiao Gojo Satoru felt complicated when facing the praise from the two elders.
Although it is a compliment, but... it is irrelevant and totally off the mark.
Xiao Gojo Satoru tilted his head and asked quietly, "What is a kindergarten?"
"...So are you confused about this?" Xiao Xia Youjie said helplessly.
When Xiao Xia Youjie looked into Xiao Gojo Satoru's clear and pure blue eyes, he saw the seriousness in the other's eyes.
Xiao Xia Youjie nodded thoughtfully again and muttered softly: "Grandma...what you said makes sense..."
Kogojo Satoru: ...Hmm?
Xiao Gojo Satoru frowned, he felt something was wrong: "Hey! Jie, what do you say makes sense?"
Xiao Xia Youjie narrowed his eyes and showed a typical black-bellied fox smile: "Guess?"
"I don't want to guess! How about a competition?" Gojo Satoru felt his fist itching. Is this really his best friend? Isn't he some dark fox? !
"Okay, you can play around, but don't go to the mountain to play recently. I'm worried about your safety." Baichuan's mother sighed softly as she looked outside. "I remember when I was a kid... there were bears on the mountain!"
"Eh?" Bai Chuanmu was stunned, his eyes widened, "Bear? Then mom, you, you, you...when I sneaked out to play when I was a kid, why didn't you stop me?"
Baichuan's mother glared at Baichuanmu and knocked him on the head: "You are as wild as a monkey. If I don't tie you up, do you think I can control you?! And I've already said that this was when I was a child. The ecological environment is much worse now. You can't even see a wild boar, let alone a bear."
"But things have been a little better in recent years," Baichuan's father said, "We even organized a tree planting event a few years ago! Your mother and I planted five trees!"
"Okay, there's nothing to brag about," Baichuan's mother pushed Baichuan's father, "But, Xiaojie, Xiaowu, you guys should not go to the mountains to play. Grandma is worried about you... I have to warn other people in the village later... If there really is a bear, you have to be more careful."
"Xiaojie and Xiaowu can beat bears." Baichuanmu said, "The two of them can fight a group of bears alone."
Konatsuyu Geto and Kogojo Satoru: ...Although it's true, it sounds weird.
"You little bastard, stop saying nonsense," Baichuan's mother raised her hand, "Be careful or I'll hit you on the head."
Baichuanmu stuck out his tongue, then glanced at Xiaoxia Yujie and Xiao Gojo Satoru who suddenly began to concentrate on eating melons. Although he couldn't see their expressions, Baichuanmu could tell that the two cubs felt a little guilty.
What's wrong with saying you can beat a group of bears? It's not like you can beat a group of monkeys.
Bai Chuanmu narrowed his eyes, took a bite of the melon and chewed it, thinking to himself, the psychological endurance of children nowadays is really...
After Baichuan's father and mother left, Xiao Gojo Satoru went to settle the score with Xiao Xia Yujie.
"Hey, why did it hit me?" Xiao Gojo Satoru pointed at Xiao Hei who was squatting in the corner and drawing circles, "Jie, your curse spirit is out of control again? Didn't we agree that it will only hit people when you say 'Salmon'?"
Xiao Xia Youjie narrowed his eyes, smiled gently and said: "Because I set up a special command for Wuye~"
"Hmm? Exclusive command, isn't this a bodyguard for your mother? Are you so kind to set an exclusive command for me too? Uh... wait!" He was almost fooled by Xiao Xia Youjie's gentle and kind smile. Xiao Gojo Satoru frowned and said, "You... are you going to let it go when I say 'stinky woman'... Awooo!"
Xiao Hei, who was drawing circles in the corner, suddenly became energetic when he heard these three words. He jumped over and knocked Xiao Gojo Satoru on the head again.
"Hey! If you keep doing this, I will really exorcise you!" Xiao Gojo Wu was angry.
Xiao Xia Youjie recalled what his grandmother said: "How about... just in case, we fight somewhere else?"
Baichuanmu took out a lollipop to coax Xiao Wujo Wu: "Wu, this is also a kind of training for you. If you can open the limitless skill in time, you won't be beaten, right? Or, how about keeping the limitless skill open all the time?"
"That's easy for you to say," Gojo Satoru said as he ate his lollipop. "If I keep it on, my brain will get fried!"
"That's right..." Baichuanmu nodded thoughtfully, "Is it too early for Xiaowu to learn the reversal technique now?"
Xiao Gojo Satoru, who was eating a lollipop, was stunned: "Huh? You know a lot? You even know the reversal technique."
Xiao Xia Youjie asked curiously: "Mom, what is the reversal technique?"
Bai Chuanmu touched his cub's head and said something "terrifying": "It's something that only you won't be able to do ten...eleven years later."
Xiao Xia Youjie:? !
"Then I want to learn it too. Mom, teach me!" Xiao Xia Youjie clenched his fists and said excitedly.
Gojo Satoru snorted in annoyance: "Do you think reversing a spell is easy? Your mother isn't even a sorcerer, how could she possibly teach you?"
Baichuanmu stared at Xiao Gojo Satoru for a long time, which made Xiao Gojo Satoru's scalp numb. He said unhappily: "What are you doing!"
"Um..." Baichuanmu scratched his cheek, "Although I can't help Xiaojie learn it, I do have some ideas for you."
Xiao Gojo Satoru was surprised and asked, "Is this true?"
Bai Chuanmu nodded vigorously: "Really, it is..."
Xiao Gojo Satoru asked, "What is it?"
Baichuanmu pointed his finger and said, "It's just... it requires a lot of money, and there are certain risks. Oh, but it doesn't matter. I know a sorcerer who can heal people. With her around, there shouldn't be any big problems."
Little Gojo Satoru patted his chest and said, "As long as you can really do it, money is not a problem. The Gojo family will pay for it! If I can learn the reversal technique, I will be truly invincible! Can we start now?"
"It's not a good idea now, is it?" Bai Chuanmu looked at the innocent and cute cat Wu and couldn't bear it. "Let's think about this matter after you are fifteen years old."
"Okay!" Gojo Satoru responded, and proudly raised his head towards Xiaoxia Yujie, "Jie, I didn't expect your mother to be able to teach others how to reverse the technique."
Xiao Xia Youjie pursed his lips and looked at Xiao Gojo Satoru with a little envy. He also wanted...
Bai Chuanmu looked away silently, just... How could someone pay someone to assassinate him? Ahem...
"But where did you know how to teach others how to reverse spells?" Xiao Gojo Satoru asked curiously. Without waiting for Baichuanmu to answer, he began to talk. "Did you get it from Jie's father?"
Baichuanmu was stunned: "Ah..."
Xiao Gojo Satoru said to himself: "From this perspective... the big conspiracy behind this... may be related to this..."
Xiao Xia Youjie frowned slightly: "Is that so... So they want to get the secret method that Dad holds? What a terrible conspiracy... A huge conspiracy!"
Bai Chuanmu's eyes widened: "...Ah——?!"
