What a blast!Boss, she is slapping her face like crazy again

Chapter 640 Returning to Hometown
"Old man, we just have something we want to ask you."

Although he was still very polite when he spoke, Lu Yichen could give people an oppressive aura even if he just stood there. Even though he had deliberately restrained himself, his momentum was still amazing.

"Your Excellency, this is really embarrassing us." The old man said he didn't dare, but his attitude became more respectful.

"Old man, we just want to ask where this place is." Lu Yichen continued, "My wife and I came here to play, but accidentally got lost from the servants."

After hearing what Lu Yichen said, the old man suddenly realized, "So you are here for fun! Then you really asked the right person."

"We are in Tianshui Village." The old man replied respectfully, "You two nobles should have come from the capital! We are not far from the capital, but it will still take some time to walk there."

"Or, if you two are willing to wait a moment, I will go into the village to see if I can borrow an ox cart or a donkey cart. Then I will take you back."

"No need." Zhong Nianyao stepped forward and said, "Old man, you can only give us some directions. We can go on our own. Maybe we will meet the servants on the way."

The old man was startled by Zhong Nianyao's sudden interruption. He looked at Lu Yichen cautiously and was relieved when he found that the other party was not angry.

At the same time, I was also somewhat amazed at the way this couple got along. You know, let alone in the homes of the rich and powerful, even in ordinary families, it is the men who hold the power of speech. When a man is talking, a woman would never dare to interrupt casually.

However, this woman not only interrupted, but also acted as if it was a normal thing, as if this was how they interacted with each other every day.

"Old man, what's wrong?"

Seeing the old man's trance-like look, Zhong Nian Yao couldn't help but shout out twice.

At Zhong Nianyao's call, the old man came back to his senses and immediately raised his hand to point out the direction for Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao. After he finished speaking, he also glanced at the two of them carefully, for fear of seeing any unhappy expressions on their faces.

They are just an ordinary family. If they offend such a noble person, who knows what will happen!

Zhong Nianyao didn't notice the old man's little movements. She used Lu Yichen as a cover and took out a small silver dollar from her personal cave.

Since she and Lu Yichen recovered their spirits, their portable caves also returned. Although their divine powers were suppressed, their portable caves were not restricted and they could take out anything they wanted.

Zhong Nianyao felt somewhat fortunate. She used to often sneak into the mortal world to play, so she always had some gold and silver ingots ready in her portable cave.

It comes in handy this time.

Zhong Nianyao directly handed the silver dollar to the old man, "Thank you for showing me the way, this is my reward."

Whether it was the old man who helped show the way or the old man's family members behind him, their eyes widened when they saw Zhong Nianyao taking out a silver dollar.

You know, this small silver dollar is their family’s income for three years.

"That's unacceptable." The old man quickly refused, "I didn't do anything, how can I accept such a large reward from the madam!" "The old man is willing to show us the way, which is already a great help to us." Zhong Nianyao said with a smile, "This is the reward you deserve, no need to refuse."

After hearing Zhong Nian Yao's words and feeling the burning gazes of the family members behind him, the old man finally accepted the silver dollar.

Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao also followed the direction pointed by the old man and walked towards the capital.

"Let's go to the capital first to get some information!" Zhong Nianyao said as she walked, "But it's been more than 20 years, and I don't know how Zhong Mingxin is doing now."

"Besides, we are only guessing that he is here, the actual situation is still unclear."

"Since we are all able to come here, he should be here too." Lu Yichen let go of Zhong Nianyao's hand, then put his arm around her shoulders and said softly, "Otherwise, you can tell whether he is here or not."

"Oh, that's right!" Zhong Nianyao's eyes lit up. "If you hadn't told me, I would have almost forgotten it. Now I can be considered to know the whereabouts of Zhong Mingxin."

The reason why she couldn't figure out Zhong Mingxin's whereabouts before was because this body was related to Zhong Mingxin by blood. However, now she has recovered her soul and body. Even if she is still Zhong Nianyao, she has severed all blood ties with the people in this small world.

Of course, blood ties can be severed, but the feelings formed by getting along with each other cannot be erased. Therefore, even though there is no relationship now, she still treats Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong as her grandparents.

Zhong Nian Yao stopped and did it right away. She didn't choose a complicated method. She just raised her hand and started counting with her fingers.

But in just a moment, she had figured it out, "Zhong Mingxin is indeed in this place, and not far from us. If I'm not mistaken, he should be in the capital."

Lu Yichen nodded, "Then let's go quickly!"

The two of them walked very quickly and arrived in the capital city in no time.

However, standing in front of the city gate, Zhong Nianyao was stunned. Looking at this familiar place, she stood there quietly, with mixed feelings for a while.

"What's wrong?" Lu Yichen noticed Zhong Nianyao's abnormality immediately. He reached out and gently patted Zhong Nianyao's shoulder. "Is there anything wrong?"

"I know where this is." Zhong Nianyao's face showed a complex emotion, "This is Li Country."

That's right, this is Li Country, the place where she had lived for many years. Before returning to the modern times, she had been living in Li Country.

In this place, she met her master, became a disciple of Guiguzi, and learned a lot of skills. Later, she became the national teacher who was second only to the emperor in the entire Li Kingdom.

However, she devoted all her efforts to the Kingdom of Li and devoted her whole life to the people, but in the end, she was still forced by the royal family to sacrifice herself in exchange for her life.

She didn't really hate it, but she couldn't let it go easily.
