Chapter 1029
There was still work to be done over at the medical lab in Quexu, so he didn’t follow along.
Jenny and the others didn’t mind, per se she came over this time just to see Mo Caiwei, she didn’t mind the rest.
It was the driver from the castle who drove the car, not the Klimo from yesterday.
Along the way, Mo Caiwei was very happy, introducing them to the scenery of the city while chatting with Jenny about her family.
Jenny could tell that she was really happy.
Maybe it’s true that her heart has now fully accepted her, and because it reminds me of something from the past.
So she and Jenny are now more and more isolated.
Jenny even found a hint of a long-lost, old feeling from when he was in Visterdem.
When they were tired of walking around in the morning, they ate at one of the biggest hotels in town at noon.
The hotel here was also a white building, and after entering, the other party obviously knew Mo Caiwei and greeted her respectfully.
Mo Caiwei was still a little embarrassed, and turned her head to whisper to Jenny, “Your Uncle Que is more prestigious here, and I’m also in his good graces, I usually don’t come out much.”
Jenny Jing smiled, “I’ve been walking around for a while today, and I feel that the people here are quite simple, so I’m relieved that you’re happy here.”
Mo Caiwei sighed, “It’s also thanks to the fact that Suu saved me back then, otherwise, I wouldn’t be here today.”
Jenny nodded.
Mo Caiwei smiled, “Let’s not talk about that, today I’ll take you guys to try their authentic local food, what we usually make at home is improved and the taste is not authentic, if you guys still like it after tasting it today, tomorrow I’ll have the cooks at home make it according to this side.”
Once inside, the group took a seat.
Because they were late, there were no more boxes inside.
But we didn’t care, so we took a better window seat in the hall.
After sitting down, Mo Caiwei ordered the food and a few people chatted while drinking tea and waiting for the food.
Just then, I suddenly heard a couple of people at the next table over there saying something.
Since they were louder, it was natural that they reached this side.
“Eh, have you heard?There’s a cabaret show over at the theater tonight.”
“Isn’t there always a cabaret show in the theater?What’s so unusual about that?”
“You wouldn’t know about that, it used to be a normal song and dance show, but today is different, I heard that there’s the Dream Sound Band today, their diva legend is a great one, it’s only performed publicly once every few years, if you don’t go see it tonight, you’ll miss it.”
“Really?That does need to be looked at, and we’ll buy tickets after dinner.”
Jenny listened to their lively conversation and was curious.
She turned to ask Mo Caiwei, “Mom, what was that show they were talking about?”
Mo Caiwei laughed, “That ah, is a local legend, it is said that a thousand years ago, when this place originally did not have a town, there was a huge divine stone fell from the sky and fell in this desert, the divine stone here sucked the essence of the sun and moon of the heavens and earth, gradually turned into essence, and became a beautiful fairy.”
“The nymphs were kind, and seeing so many people here, dying of thirst because there was no water, wept with distress, and their tears gathered into that river of the goddesses, which had water, but no trees, and the yellow sand brought the water
It gets so dirty, the sun dries it out easily, so you pull out all your hair again and become a tree and flower by the river.”
“The people had no houses to live in, so she cut her flesh and turned it into a house, and in order to stop the sandstorm from the south, she turned her bones into the mountain of the goddess, and anyway, that’s probably the legend.If you guys want to see it, I’ll show it to you later after lunch.”
Jenny Jing laughed, “There’s still such a magical thing?”
“No.”
Ann opened a pair of curious eyes and asked, “Is this true?In this world, are there really immortals?”
Mo Caiwei laughed so hard she scratched her little nose.
“Of course it’s not true, this is all made up by people to lull children, but this kind of stuff is harmless anyway, it’s been passed around long enough to be considered a belief, so no one says anything.”
Jenny asked, “And what about this Dream Sound Band?”
“That band ah, it’s a very famous band over here, specializing in stage shows, never been to East Asia so you might not know, but they’re famous around here, the Legend of the Goddess is a stage play they wrote, I saw it once a few years ago, but it’s pretty exciting, we can go see it tonight.”
Jenny nodded.
“So that’s it.”
She probably figured out that it was just a stage team making up a mythology to put on a show.
It’s nothing unusual really, every place has a mythology that belongs to that place.
Not only here, but at home, she’s heard a lot about it.
Jenny didn’t think much of it, just taking it as an interesting insight to hear.
But Ann looked interested.
It’s no wonder that kids love fairies and myths.
Hearing Mo Caiwei speak so picturesquely, I felt that this divine sister was so kind and great, I simply couldn’t wait to meet her.
Mo Caiwei saw the situation and said with a smile, “I’m afraid you won’t be able to see her if you want to see her now, after all, it’s all a thousand years ago, but in the afternoon we’ll go to the palace built for her by the locals to pay our respects, and you’ll still have a chance to see her statue and portrait.”
Ann nodded good-naturedly, “Good.”
So, after the meal, the group went to worship at the Shrine of the Goddess, a very famous local shrine.
Since it was a local belief, the palace was naturally restored with extravagant grandeur.
As the group entered, they only felt that this was not like a palace built for immortals, but rather like a palace built for an ancient emperor.
Jenny thought with a smile in his heart, it really is the same everywhere.
Where is this for a sacrifice to the fairies?This sacrifice is clearly the master behind this palace.
I don’t know who is in charge of this side now, and when I see the gold bricks paving the road and the white jade as the wall, I know that I’m afraid that I’ve only collected a lot of money behind.
Jenny thought to herself, her mouth subconsciously asking the question.
“Mom, do you know who’s in charge of this palace now?Who does it belong to?”
Mo Caiwei was stunned and shook her head.
“I’m not sure about that, but it doesn’t seem like anyone has mentioned it.”
Chapter 1030
Jenny Jing saw the situation and didn’t ask any more questions, so he didn’t say anything else.
Several people stepped through the long steps and entered the main hall, only to see a tall statue of a fairy goddess in front of them.
The statue of the god should be cast in gold, several meters tall, and covered in golden light, and then when the sunlight from outside shone in, I only felt that my eyes were going blind.
Ann stood below, tilting her little head up at the statue in front of her, with an exclamation, “Wow, it’s so high.”
Jenny smiled, “You’ve met the divine sister you wanted to meet, so now you want to pray for something.”
Ann nodded heavily, then immediately clasped her hands together, closed her eyes and began to pray.
Mo Caiwei also made the same action beside her, Jenny and Biden Lu didn’t really believe in this, so they didn’t make a wish and just looked around curiously.
Little Competeze suddenly spoke up.
“Look, Mommy, pretty sister.”
Jenny sniffed and looked over in the direction of his finger.
It was only a mural, and because the mural was far away, even though it was very tall and large, it could still be seen clearly, not like a statue of a god, and when you got closer you couldn’t even see what it looked like on top.
The mural was colorful and beautiful, and Jenny led Xiao Jingze closer to discover that the painting on it was really a woman.
I saw that the woman was dressed in a golden outfit and looked exceptionally beautiful as she stepped barefoot on the clouds.
She couldn’t help but smile, “Really pretty sister, well, you have better eyes than Mommy.”
Little Competeze laughed hip-hop.
Biden Lu also came over and looked at the mural on the wall and said, quite amused, “I didn’t expect this North African immortal to look like an East Asian, but it’s also rare.”
Jenny said, “It is indeed a bit strange, but didn’t they say that people from East Asia used to migrate over from North Africa?Maybe that’s when it just looks similar.”
Biden Lu didn’t say anything, they stared in silence for a while, and when Ann finished making her wish, they left with her.
On the way out, a staff member from this side came over in front of them to collect merit money.
Jenny didn’t expect this to be popular over here, though.
She thought that only the ticket money just came in.
But coming out to play, she didn’t count and paid some of it on the fly.
It took a while for Mo Caiwei to follow her out.
When she came out, she was in a hurry, and said to her, “Jenny, I just asked about something, guess what it is?”
Jenny Jing turned to look at her and smiled, “What?”
“Didn’t you just keep wondering who built this place?I made enquiries, but the other party wasn’t very clear, only that it was a man of fortune from the East.”
Jenny was stunned.
“East?”
“Yes, they won’t even know if I ask more clearly, but as for the incoming accounts here, they are naturally managed by someone.”
Jenny frowned.
For some reason, listening to Mo Caiwei, she always felt that there was something odd about this place.
But the matter was not at stake, and she did not think much of it.
Since they had just donated money, they were told by a staff member that they could go to the back and get some of the fruit that had been blessed on this side.
Jenny Jing and Biden Lu thought that they were here anyway, and they weren’t greedy for his bit of blessed fruit, but it was still possible to go and see it.
So the group went to the back room.
I saw even more people in the back than in the front, a ravenous group of people, all of whom had come to receive a blessing.
Jenny found it funny, and didn’t know if he really believed that in this world, there was such a thing as being blessed and getting nothing for it, or if it was just following the trend.
A staff member came over and handed her a fruit.
She picked it up and saw that it was an ordinary apple, and the skin was wilted, so it wasn’t fresh at first glance.
She didn’t even want the fruit now, and with a glance at Biden Lu, she placed the things on the table and the group turned to leave.
Someone saw that they didn’t want it and immediately rushed over to the table, snatching the apple off the table and munching on it.
The movement was so fast that if you didn’t know, you thought it was a robbery.
Jenny simply didn’t even have a good feeling about this place at this point.
She turned away without a bad chill.
When she went out, she also smiled at Mo Caiwei, “This place looks just like that, according to me, it’s better to worship the Buddha rather than the Goddess, so in the future, Mom, you should come to places like this less often.”
Mo Caiwei smiled, “I wasn’t coming, I was thinking of you guys coming and bringing you guys out for a long walk, so I came over for a spin, I usually stay in the castle most of the time, I wouldn’t come to these places to hang out at all.”
Jenny Jing was only slightly relieved by the news.
It wasn’t that she was overly cautious, but it was because this place was supposed to be a place of piety and purity.
But ever since she’d come in, her outlook had been one of vulgarity, mercenaryism, and stupidity.
She can’t say anything about others, after all, it’s all about their beliefs, whether they are good or bad.
But she was afraid that simple as Mo Caiwei, when she came to such a place, she could easily be deceived by others, which could lead to some very serious consequences.
The good news is that Mo Caiwei does not believe in this either.
Both have died once, and she’s seen through a lot of fame and fortune and whatnot in life.
Now she just wanted to spend some quiet, ordinary days with Quexu, who used to have no relatives, but now that she had Jenny as a relative again, her heart was even more complete.
So, naturally, she didn’t have what she was looking for, so she didn’t need to pray to God.
Jenny didn’t know what was in her mind, but she just surmised that it was best if she didn’t come.
I’ll have to talk to Uncle Que back, but this place is not clean, and eventually no one will come here anymore.
Having made up his mind, when he went out, Jenny stopped paying attention to his surroundings.
However, at that moment, Biden Lu’s footsteps petered out.
Because Biden Lu had been holding her hand, his footsteps would stop and Jenny Jing’s footsteps would follow.
She turned her head, looked at Biden Lu and asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”
Only Biden Lu stared at the direction not far away and did not speak.
Jenny followed his gaze, but saw that it was a cloister with only a few pedestrians and some travelers on it, and nothing more.
She frowned.
“What did you see?”
Biden Lu took his eyes back.
He shook his head, “Nothing.”
After saying that, he asked Mo Caiwei, “It’s getting late, do you want to go back and get some rest?”
Mo Caiwei looked at the time, it was indeed late, it was four o’clock in the afternoon.
Several people have been out since breakfast in the morning, and have been strolling around for six or seven hours now, so it would be a lie to say that they are not tired.
Chapter 1031
Especially, there was Jenny, a pregnant woman.
No matter what, you have to think about her.
So, Mo Caiwei nodded her head.
“Okay, let’s go home and get some rest, then we’ll think about going out to the show after dinner.”
“Good.”
Once the group had agreed, they took the bus straight back to the castle.
When I returned to the castle, I found that Quexu had returned from the lab at some point.
At this time, he was in the back of the glass house, tending to the money plant.
Knowing they were back, he came out from the back and asked, “Where have you all been today?”
Mo Caiwei then told him about all the places she had been to today.
When they were told that they had gone to the Goddess Palace, Quexu was a little surprised.
“You went to the Goddess Palace?”
Mo Caiwei smiled, “Yeah, I was just curious, so I went over to take a look.”
Quexu was silent for a while and smirked, “What’s there to see?But it’s just a way to amass money by taking advantage of the situation, so it’s better to trust yourself than to believe that.”
Jenny also laughed, “I say so, but I see that everyone over here is quite convinced, especially the fruit that has received the oracle’s blessing, everyone is grabbing it like they don’t want to die.”
Quexu shook his head.
“Foolishness.”
At this point, he seemed to suddenly remember something and turned to look at Jenny.
“Now that you know all this, have you inquired about the owner behind this Goddess Palace?”
Jenny was stunned.
Mo Caiwei laughed, “Ask around, why didn’t you ask around, but the specifics aren’t very clear, people won’t say, we only know it’s someone from the East.”
“What man from the East.”
Quexu had a whole expression of disgrace, “It’s the Nan Clan.”
“Huh?”
Everyone was momentarily surprised.
Jenny Jing even turned pale, “The Nan Clan?”
“Yeah, I didn’t know before, but then one time, I saw a man conducting a handover with the Goddess Palace and overheard their conversation, and I realized that man was working for the Nan Clan, and this place, I don’t know if it was built by the Nan Clan, or if someone built it and they took over later, but it’s just in their hands now anyway.”
Everyone’s face sank as soon as that was said.
Those present, Jenny Jing and Biden Lu Nan in all stood against the Nan Clan.
And Mo Caiwei had quite a few opinions about the Nan Clan because of Jenny’s relationship.
Originally, no one had thought much of it, but now they didn’t think that this Goddess Palace was actually the property of the Nan Clan.
Thinking that we had just patronized that side, we were all a little strange at the moment.
At this time, Biden Lu suddenly said, “No wonder.”
Jenny was stunned and asked, “What’s wrong?What’s hard to blame.”
Biden Lu pursed his lips and said, “Speaking of which you may find it unbelievable, just now I was over there and saw Nan Murong.”
The crowd was in shock.
Jenny subconsciously blurted out, “How did Nan Murong appear here?Isn’t he in Forest City?”
Biden Lu said in a deep voice, “Yes, that’s why I was surprised just now, but now it seems that since the Goddess Palace is the property of the Nan Clan, it’s not surprising that he would appear here.”
Everyone fell silent and didn’t look too good.
Only after half a moment did Jenny say something in a bad mood.
“It’s so true that everywhere you go you meet these assholes.”
Mo Caiwei patted the back of her hand reassuringly.
“Not much to think about, left or right has nothing to do with us, worst case we’ll never go back next time.”
Jenny Jing said in a deep voice, “Whether it’s theirs or not, I have no intention of going back to that place.”
Mo Caiwei nodded and turned to look at Quexu, “You’re not allowed to go there from now on either, do you hear me?”
Quexu had a rare smile.
“When have you ever seen me pray to God?”
Mo Caiwei thought about it, but yes.
Since he had said so, Mo Caiwei didn’t say anything else.
She saw that Jenny’s face wasn’t too good, so she advised, “Why don’t you go back to your room and rest for a while, and I’ll call you at dinner tonight.”
Jenny wasn’t polite and nodded her head, letting the two little ones play below, and Biden Lu accompanied her up to rest.
Back in the room, Jenny Jing leaned against the bed and said softly, “Biden, for some reason, I don’t know why, but this time out, I don’t feel right.”
Biden Lu sat on the bed and laid her on his lap, massaging her temples for her as he said, “What’s wrong?”
Biden faintly said, “Before, you said that you saw Nan Murong at the Goddess Palace, actually I didn’t tell you, this whole journey, I always feel that there is a pair of invisible eyes staring at us, do you think it could be someone from the Nan Clan?”
The landing bath had a finger.
It took a long moment before he said, “I don’t think so, I’ve had people in the dark to protect you along the way, but you’re too worried.”
“But…”
“Aren’t you too tired to go out for the next two days, so why don’t you stay home with you and get some rest?”
Biden Lu said gently.
Jenny looked into his eyes and saw that the man looked gentle and doting, the look she knew best.
Her troubled heart was only a little safer now.
She nodded.
“Maybe, I’m going to take a nap and you’ll remember to wake me up in an hour.”
“Good.”
Biden Lu helped her lie down and said, “You sleep, I’ll stay here with you.”
“Well.”
Jenny was a bit tired in the end, and fell asleep shortly afterwards.
Biden Lu sat on the edge of the bed to guard her, looking at her quiet sleeping face, and lowered his head to k*ss her forehead, before saying softly, “Jenny, don’t worry, I will keep you safe.”
When Jenny woke up again, it was already six in the evening.
The sun was still warm outside, and here it was late and didn’t get completely dark until after 10pm.
So at the moment the sun is the domestic equivalent of two or three o’clock in the afternoon, which is exactly when it’s warm.
Luckily, Biden Lu thoughtfully drew the curtains and the room was dark, so it didn’t affect her sleep.
When she woke up, Biden Lu wasn’t around, and she thought that Biden Lu had gone out.
I didn’t expect to hear a gentle voice in my ear before I moved.
“Awake?”
Then a warm palm came out.
Jenny was stunned and looked up at him.
Only when she saw that Biden Lu was moving a chair and sitting next to it, reading a book, did she notice that a dim floor lamp was lit in the corner of the house, where Biden Lu had been sitting before.
She didn’t smile, sitting up with his help.
“What time is it?”
“Just got to six.”
Biden Lu paused and asked her, “Are you thirsty?I’ll pour you a glass of water.”
“Good.”
Jenny nodded.
