Chapter 177 Xia Shumin: When you marry a chicken, follow the chicken; when you marry a dog, follow the dog

"uncle and auntie."

Chen Ji and Xia Shumin came to the large garden of the back house and saw Lu Rui and Xia Yongcheng, as well as two half-drunk cups of milk tea placed on the table.

the weather is getting hotter.

Xia Mansion in Hongye Mountain occupies a large area. There are mountain springs gurgling out of the mountain and flowing down the rocks. It is very convenient for many villas and villas on the mountain to get water. The mountain is very suitable for spending the summer.

There is a lake in the Xia Mansion Garden. There are various small fish in the lake. The fish shuttle between the rockery and the lotus leaves, which is quite elegant.

This authentic ancient style house would cost at least RMB 100 million to build in modern times.

If you're closer to a big city, 500 million is not too much.

"Father, mother."

The little lady had already shyly shook off Chen Ji's hand on the road. Now she sat down obediently and glanced at him.

Chen Ji understood and sat next to her, making her blush.

Xia Yongcheng and the two people opposite him were extremely satisfied. The more they looked at Chen Ji, the more satisfied they became.

Xia Yongcheng stroked his short beard, looked at Chen Ji, and said with a smile: "Good son-in-law... no, good nephew, I heard the girls said that you are going to the North Pole again?"

The girls should refer to the three ladies, the master and the servant. They conveyed Chen Ji's words to Xia Yongcheng and the two.

The idea of ​​the North and South Pole has been spread, and it has been known to the illiterate people and discussed a lot.

No news has been sent back from the dozens of large ships that set out from Zhao State, allowing all kinds of rumors to spread in the market.

Some said that all the people who went to the North Pole froze to death, others said that they found many treasures in the Arctic iceberg continent and were happy to be there. Some even speculated in a bad way that the ship hit an ice floe, and a group of innate and master masters could only sit on the wooden plank and use their hands.

Rowing, rowing slowly back to Zhao from the North Pole.

"Yes, something happened over there."

Chen Ji thought for a moment and said, "My uncle and aunt are here just so I can tell you."

"oh?"

Xia Yongcheng was quite surprised, "What happened? But the ship hit an iceberg?"

Chen Ji shook his head and told the story about a space crack appearing in the Arctic iceberg and sucking people into a weird, dark little world.

Several people were very surprised. Cuizhu, who was standing by, was dumbfounded and said: "There is no sun, no moon and stars in the sky, not even flowers, grass and trees... Young Master, is this the underworld?"

Ordinary maids and servants would not dare to interrupt when their master is talking.

However, Luzhu Cuizhu is Xia Shumin's personal maid, and they know Chen Ji's identity and have eaten fairy apples. Although they are still Xia Shumin's maids, their identities have long been different.

"The underworld?"

Xia Shumin, who was sitting next to Chen Ji, opened her eyes wide and looked at Chen Ji: "Sir, is this the underworld or the doomsday world where the other sister Wan lives?"

To be honest, Xia Shumin was confused the last time she went to Earth and listened to Chen Ji talk about the four worlds.

After all, these things far exceeded the Four Books, Five Classics and ancient poetry that she was usually exposed to. Coupled with what she saw and heard on the earth, it became increasingly unclear to her.

Especially the concept of parallel worlds and two Zhou Wans made her even more confused.

Fortunately, the young master is here. If she can't figure it out, she won't think about it. She will slowly listen to the young master telling her these things in the future.

"How should I put it... Just think of it as the underworld, except that there are no bull-headed horses and eighteen levels of hell. It is a completely dark and cold underworld with monsters."

Using the underworld analogy to connect the small world is the fastest way to explain it to people in the martial arts world.

Wang Shaodang, Liu Sangu, Chu Nantian and others all guessed that they had arrived in the underworld. What they saw and heard was extremely strange, and the dark scene was comparable to the eighteenth level of hell.

"There is no bull-headed horse-face, no judge's impermanence, let alone the underworld of Lord Yama and Ksitigarbha? There is no judge's pen in the Book of Life and Death? Young Master, where have all the gods gone?"

Xia Shumin's eyes sparkled, this was her reaction after hearing something that once again made her think about something, filled her with curiosity, and made her want to write it down.

She already knew about Tianmen from Chen Ji. She knew that behind Tianmen there was actually a vast white place. There was no Nantianmen and Tianting at all, and there were no gods such as the Three Pure Ones, Four Imperial Guards, Five Directions and Five Elders.

Therefore, she boldly guessed that the gods in the sky and the king of hell on the ground had gone somewhere and disappeared.

Young Master is the first immortal in a long time after the immortals disappeared!

"If you ask me, I don't know either."

Chen Ji didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Even though Xia Shumin usually stayed at home, read poetry and write, and was as well-behaved as a lady, her curiosity was stronger than anyone else.

——She is actually everyone’s lady.

Xia Shumin came closer and looked at Chen Ji with curious eyes: "Master, take Shumin to have a look."

Lu Rui glared at her.

"Without the sky, it's like a place like the underworld..."

Xia Yongcheng pondered for a long time, then sighed and shook his head and said: "Since my nephew walked out of the Tianmen, the world has changed in an increasingly incomprehensible way... I wonder what my nephew has planned?"

“You’ll know after you go over and take a look.”

"That's just right."

Xia Yongcheng was a little embarrassed and said: "After more than thirty large ships from Zhao State set off for the North Pole, the people who stayed behind were worried about them and wanted to know the situation there.

After word spread that the nephew flew to the north with a real dragon, people from the Jia Family Chamber of Commerce, the Tiandao Association, the Qian Family Chamber of Commerce, and the imperial court came to ask for information, hoping that the nephew would tell them the news about the North Pole.

My nephew is going to the North Pole again, and they also want to ask you to bring some dry food, rice, noodles and clothing to the people going to the North Pole.

What do you mean by good nephew?"

Last time, Chen Ji took Xia Shumin to the North Pole on a real dragon. The real dragon was so huge that it was hidden in the clouds. The exposed scale claws were enough to make people on the ground stand in awe.

They thought it would be easy for such a big dragon to bring some supplies to the North Pole.

Among the thirty large ships heading to the North Pole, they basically include the most powerful people in the Zhao Kingdom with the strongest martial arts skills.

For example, Gongsun Sword God, after his disciples and grandsons waited for a long time without any news about their master, they were all anxious and wanted to sail to the sea to go to the North Pole.

There is also the prince Lu Huai. Although Emperor Qiande has no shortage of sons, the prince is the face of the court after all. Even if Emperor Qiande doesn't care, the ministers will not agree.

The imperial court was more anxious than anyone else to know the news that the prince was in the North Pole.

"let me see."

Chen Ji did not agree immediately.

Although the real dragon and colorful phoenix can fly to the North Pole carrying a large amount of rice, flour, grain and oil, he can also command these two auspicious beasts.

But as the first dragon and phoenix born in the world, they are not just auspicious beasts, but also represent the will of heaven in this world to a certain extent.

It can be seen from the last time when the dragon and the phoenix came together to create the first fairy sword in the world for Chen Ji.

"They gave me a lot of money, which can be regarded as earning some dowry for Shumin."

Lu Rui smiled and said, "If my nephew feels that it is inappropriate, just let this matter go. Shu Min's dowry will not be lacking."

The little lady blushed with embarrassment, tilted her head and fiddled with her handkerchief, unable to say a word in front of her parents and fiancé.

I acquiesced to the marriage.

"no problem!"

Chen Ji readily agreed.

Dragons and phoenixes are representatives of the will of heaven and earth, but Xia Shumin is most likely the incarnation of the will of the world. The daughter of heaven, her words and deeds can change the martial arts world in this round sky.

The Flower of Darkness, which was raging in the Divine Grace Continent and the Doomsday World, and even the Empress had no way to do anything about, was flattened by her with a slap. She could easily hold the Flower of Darkness after grabbing it.

The only pity is that there is no way to kill it.

To earn a dowry for the daughter of heaven, it is natural to summon dragons and phoenixes!

"Cai Feng, come here."

Chen Ji shouted at the phoenix sleeping on the fairy apple tree in the Xiafu orchard, waking it up.

The fiery red black bird quickly flew over and landed in front of everyone. It stood on the table and chirped several times at Chen Ji.

Chen Ji smoothed its hair with his hands and said to it: "I will go to the North Pole with you and the dragon behind the mountain later. You can help carry some supplies. It can be considered a meritorious deed."

A space crack has appeared in the North Pole, which is not a good thing for this world. It is a great meritorious deed for people who go to the North Pole to discover a space crack.

"Chirp!"

Caifeng spread her wings and flapped her wings a few times, then jumped onto Xia Shumin and pecked her hand affectionately.

Chen Ji didn't know why, but Xia Shumin and the two maids suddenly reacted:

"Sir, Caifeng wants to eat the fairy fruit."

Xia Shumin smiled sweetly and said to him.

"No problem...how many fairy apples are there on the tree?"

"There aren't many, just four or five."

"The lady couldn't bear to eat it and said she would keep it for later." Lu Zhu interjected.

Chen Ji nodded, ready to pick another one and share it with others, and use it to summon dragons and phoenixes.
