Chapter 157 Prologue The Fugitive and the Traveler

   "Sit, sit, you're welcome..."

The mother greeted the two girls very enthusiastically. The degree of enthusiasm made the opposite side feel a little at a loss. Even the always quiet Kikyo was not very calm, not to mention the whole person was confused, and he couldn't understand what was going on. White-haired girl.

She was very sensitive and restless sitting on the sofa, holding the teacup in her hand, biting her lower lip lightly, her eyes subconsciously feeling a little erratic, as if she was seriously looking at the surrounding environment and observing the appropriate escape route, as if Instinct general habit action.

   However, only Gu Mo and Kikyo were able to notice this.

   In addition, in the eyes of ordinary people, this girl is probably very restrained.

   "You kid..."

  Father also looked relieved, but as soon as he turned around, he dragged Gu Mo into the kitchen.

   He looked up and down at his son with a weird expression: "It's really okay to make such a big news quietly, but you haven't considered whether our old couple's heart can accept it?"

   "Actually we are just friends..." Gu Mo blinked.

"Come on, what festival is today, I can come back with you, dare you say it's just a friend?" The old father obviously didn't like this, and while waving at him forcefully, his face also showed obvious disgust. , "But what kind of ecstasy soup did you give them, how did you persuade both girls to come back with you..."

  The old father also felt puzzled, and when did this kid become such a scumbag? With such a firm idea and evaluation, this middle-aged man, who has always been optimistic and open-minded, looked at Gu Mo with complicated eyes, just like his mood at this moment.

"I actually only invited Kikyo..." Gu Mo explained to himself seriously, "Xili... is another girl, she was actually killed just now, and frankly, I was also surprised, but I can't ignore it. She can only be brought in together."

"I've provoked other girls, and they've all come to the door to ask for an explanation. Your kid is surprised? You can't ignore her, so you brought her in together?" The old father's eyes suddenly became more complicated. It looks crooked, and it's ridiculously crooked.

   The mother here is still worried that the child will not be able to find a partner in the future, but he is very good over there. He turned his head and brought two girls back...

   "By the way, Dad, I came back this time and brought some goodies for the two of you..." Gu Mo tilted his head, his tone was very natural and he wanted to change the subject.

"Don't pretend to be stupid, you've already made a mistake in principle... Hey, hey, after you listen to me, what are you going to do now?" Father said seriously, wanting to give the boy a lesson, but before he finished speaking, I found that the kid turned around and was about to go out, and quickly grabbed him.

   "I'll drive the other out now! Don't worry, I will never make mistakes of principle!" Gu Mo solemnly assured.

"Stop, stop! You kid... Eh, forget it, it's your own business anyway, you can handle it yourself." Dad's brows jumped a few times, and finally he could only sigh and say so, although he also felt that It's very inappropriate, but this is already the case, and we can't really drive people out.

   "Actually, it's not what you think, it's just... that girl is a bit special, so I can't make her leave like this, you can just treat it as an ordinary guest."

Gu Mo spread his hands, and after recognizing who the white-haired girl who suddenly appeared and knocked over him, he couldn't let the other party go away like this, but it was not easy to use too strong methods. Keep the other party, so it will become the current appearance.

However, he has already seen a lot of knowledge and has experienced many storms. He is quite calm about this, and even somewhat disapproves of it. As he said, he regarded it as a friend who suddenly met, and regarded it as an ordinary person. Guests can look at it.

It's a pity that the old father probably doesn't have the rough nerves like him. He was muttering how to treat the two girls as ordinary guests, and then he seemed to think of something and asked: "Yes, that one. Is the girl a witch from Japan?"

   Bellflower's dress is still a very classic white and red dress, because this is so distinctive, it's not a strange thing to be identified and misunderstood... Or it's not a misunderstanding, after all, that's what it is.

   "Yes, it is indeed a witch." Gu Mo replied calmly.

He is not worried about the associations of his parents. After all, they are basically the older generation of classic characters who are insulated from anime and dramas, so there is absolutely no possibility of recognizing Kikyo, just like they can't recognize Xi In this way, he doesn't even need his help in disguising it.

   "This girl feels really good, you'd better grasp it..." The old father nodded in relief, the impression of the witch was really good.

   As for the other one, he was a little unsure, what should I say? To use some euphemisms to describe it, it is probably that the girl seems to be too...emmmmm, too fashionable and avant-garde?

  —what should that be...

  —What do the young people say about cosplay and so on…

   After all, witches are relatively easy to understand and accept, and they don’t necessarily need to understand elements such as anime and dramas. This profession is still active in Japan even in modern times. But in contrast, the white-haired girl's witcher attire and the silver sword she carries are beyond common sense...

   This middle-aged man can only try to understand in this direction, and this is the only possibility he can think of.

"Let's talk about this kind of thing later. Saying that I really brought back some useful supplements for you two elders this time..." Gu Mo blinked his eyes and deliberately changed the subject, "You and Mom have a share, this It's really useful to stick to eating every day..."

The legacy of the old immortal is a priceless treasure. The value of many treasures in it can only be dug deep, and the ancient prescriptions of dozens of precious life-extending tonics are already an unimaginable wealth. It is no exaggeration to say that , Even with these ancient recipes, Gu Mo can have the confidence to make a big earthquake from the top down in the real world.

   After all, you must know that more than 99% of the world's resources are in the hands of less than 1% of the people.

And how many of these less than 1% of the people can be in a healthy and energetic, youthful stage, they don't care about the problems caused by the gradual aging of the body, and they don't want to have more vitality, more lifespan...

As the age continues to increase, the physical health deteriorates, and the fear of death and aging is the most powerless. When this fear reaches the maximum, it becomes even crazy, and is willing to believe in the slim probability and believe in yourself. Even the special one is willing to pay for it.

   may not be ignorant, but fear can make people less rational.

   They are the most powerful, wealthy, and the people who have the most resources in the world, but because of this, they are often unable to distribute…

In fact, Gu Mo has been thinking about doing some articles on this. There are immortals on Penglai Island, and the immortal mountains in the sea with the idea of ​​immortality appear in the world, but they are just a signal to be released. How many people come into the Internet.

   "What supplements to bring, waste that money, we are very healthy, so we don't need this kind of thing..." The old father didn't know the inside story, and seemed to disagree.

   However, Gu Mo also knew his temperament, and he just said lightly: "Anyway, I bought it and I can't return it."

"Okay, okay, let me and your mother eat some..." The old father waved his hand helplessly. He felt that health care products were actually IQ taxes, but since it was a piece of filial piety from this kid, there was no way. After all I bought everything... Until now, he still doesn't understand how many levels this thing is higher than the imaginary IQ tax.

Although limited by time and conditions, there is only one kind of tonic that can be made directly at present, or because all the corresponding medicinal plants are planted in the bonsai cave, as for other recipes, it is more or less lacking a few medicinal materials , resulting in no way to complete it for the time being.

   Compared with other prescriptions with higher requirements, this tonic that can be directly made is relatively basic, but the effect is also very good.

   After all, it is also one of the secret treasures of immortals, and it is naturally a rare panacea in the world.

Gu Mo is not familiar with medicine or pharmacology, but he can see the specific attribute page, so he knows that this tonic can regulate the human body very well, make the qi and blood smooth, and have the effect of prolonging life by five to ten years. The specific effect depends on It depends on the physical condition of the user, and everyone is different…

   If the upper limit of the efficacy has been reached, then taking the same kind of tonic again and again will not have any effect.

Just in order not to frighten the second old man, he divided it into multiple parts. Although the efficacy of the medicine will be lost, it can be compensated by the quantity... This way, it can achieve the desired effect and make the process appear smooth and silent. , happens naturally and unknowingly.

"Okay, let's go out to accompany others, and ask your mother to come in and cook together. Don't be like checking the household registration, be careful to scare the girls." Looking across the kitchen to the windowsill of the living room, the old father looked Glancing outside, my mother was asking the two girls enthusiastically.

The    Miko was relatively calm, but the white-haired girl was obviously very restless.

After all, relatively speaking, she is the one who really doesn't understand the situation at all. She traveled to this strange world and was called out of her identity by a stranger. That moment was enough to make her have too many associations. …

It was like she couldn't escape no matter how hard she tried. The big net of fate tightened inch by inch, and it finally made her feel like she was suffocating. Just in front of her escape, she waited for a while, waiting like a rabbit, waiting for her to rush into the trap...

   But what happened next made the white-haired girl realize that she was thinking too much.

When the opposite party was about to strike first, he easily restrained himself, but he didn't do anything. Instead, he said a few strange words... He was a little concerned, and felt that he might not be able to escape, so the girl gritted her teeth. Come with me into this house.

   It just seems to get worse in a sense…

   What the **** is this doing?

  Why are you sitting here?

   This woman has been questioning herself, is it some kind of interrogation?

There were too many doubts surging in the girl's mind. She tried her best to maintain a somewhat stiff smile on her face, and responded to the question of the kind middle-aged woman in front of her. Fortunately, it was all over soon. As the old father shouted in the kitchen, the mother also got up and went in to help.

"I can cook too..." When the parents who were disgusted by the parents pushed them out of the kitchen together, Gu Mo, who was unwilling to go out, was still trying to argue for reasons. Lao Lu did it with one hand, but he was despised, saying that he could indeed cook, but it was only limited to cooking.

   Who is this looking down on? Although Gu Mo really only uses an electric rice cooker and doesn't know anything about cooking recipes, it doesn't prevent him from making unscientific and luminous dishes that can rival those in the gourmet recipes!

  Cognition is reality, and lies rewrite "truth".

Although fraud involving too high-level or too large-scale is still impossible, it is not too difficult to fabricate such a lie. It is a pity that a hero is useless. He really wants to prove himself, but the two elders do not plan to Give him such a chance.

   A little disappointed, he returned to the living room and sat down. Gu Mo reached out and picked up the teapot, calmly refilling all the cups with tea.

   "Thank, thank you..." The white-haired girl subconsciously thanked.

   "You're welcome." Gu Mo nodded and responded politely.

  “…”

  “…”

After a brief silence, the white-haired girl held the cup in her hand and stared at it. After a while, she looked up with determination and looked at the man on the opposite side who was calmly sipping tea, holding the remote control in one hand and giving it to him in a bored manner. The young man who changed the channel over and over again.

"I know, you are Cilia Fiona Ellen Lienron, the princess of Sintra, the princess of Nilfgaard, and the heir of the blood of the ancients..." Gu Mo was very calm He opened his mouth and said, the hand that was pressing the remote control also stopped, and the interview about the modern version of Peach Blossom Land was being replayed on the news.

  Fortunately, after understanding the source world of the golem making process, I went to check the information and just remembered such a name, otherwise, he really can't say it now.

  The shrine maiden glanced at him very calmly, and then looked at the white-haired girl thoughtfully.

  “…”

  “…”

"You...I..." After finally reacting, Ciri felt a little stuck. She hadn't asked yet, but the other party had already answered, and the question she had prepared was still stuck in her throat. I don't know if I should say it or swallow it.

The    process is still hanging, but not responding.

"Your mental fluctuations are too violent and obvious. It's easy for me to tell them apart. It's like you write your thoughts on your face..." Putting down the remote control in his hand, Gu Mo turned around and explained with a smile, He said with a very hearty tone, "But you don't have to worry too much. I'm not Wild Hunt, and I'm not interested in the blood of the ancients."

   is actually quite interesting, but at the moment, the main thing is to appease the sensitive nerves of the girl. Saying that he is not interested may not be able to convince Ciri immediately, but if he is very interested, it is definitely enough to stimulate this swallow.

  Ciri's expression softened a little. Of course, she didn't immediately believe this statement, but the other party's attitude at least sent a good signal.

   She looked at the two people in front of her hesitantly, and asked hesitantly, "You... who are you?"

   If this person is not for the secrets contained in his bloodline, why would he know about his own affairs?

"Your question is a bit difficult to answer. Although I really want to say that I'm just an ordinary person, but...you see, this kind of skeptical gaze immediately appeared." The young man opposite stretched out a slender index finger and gently Scratched his cheeks, what kind of answer should be given to be convincing to such a question?

   Thinking quickly, he exhaled lightly: "Just treat me as a traveler, in fact, in a sense, I'm just like you..."

  Traveler? Similar to yourself?

   Doubt arises in his heart, Ciri's brows furrowed tightly, what does this mean?

"Like you, I can travel between different worlds..." Glancing at the witch next to him, Gu Mo said this with consideration, just to take this opportunity to explain, "This is my ability and my way of survival, So just like you, I usually travel in different worlds..."

   "What?" Ciri was slightly taken aback, "Are you also the heir of the ancient blood?"

   "I don't have that kind of thing... I'm just a normal human being."

Gu Mo spread his hands, the blood of the ancients is the bloodline of the primordial elves in the world of this traveler. It is a powerful elf curse passed down from generation to generation, and it is also a very rare talent. It is said that people with this kind of blood can control time and time. Space, a realm that can be reached, a realm that even elf sages can't reach.

  Although this is just a legend, it still attracts the covetousness of countless careerists, and as a person who has completely inherited the blood of the ancients, the white-haired girl is naturally being hunted all the time.

   "Ordinary human..." Ciri's eyes flickered for a while, she would not believe such nonsense.

But if this person does have the same ability, whether it is because of blood or other reasons, then maybe he is really the same as himself... No, it is not the same, he is just different. The world is constantly fleeing, but the other party seems to be traveling at will?

   The kindness and recognition that had just emerged in his heart suddenly turned into some kind of helplessness and estrangement, and Ciri smiled bitterly in her heart.

   She thought about it seriously, and asked tentatively, "Are you really not for the blood of the ancients?"

   "No, it was you who suddenly rushed out and hit me just now. I didn't take the initiative to catch you... You must understand this." Gu Mo replied calmly.

   "Then can I leave?"

   "Of course... no." Gu Mo still answered very calmly.

   Sure enough! Ciri gritted her teeth secretly, she knew that there was no such good thing, she couldn't believe a word of the other party's words, it was definitely aimed at herself, how could she let herself go so easily...

"You just hit me badly and broke my belongings, and you still think about just walking away?" The young man on the opposite side stretched out his hand in a very calm tone, and a long list was right there. He pulled it out in his hand, "This is my medical bill, and I also want you to pay for the specific cost of the damaged thing. You can leave after clearing the settlement."

   "You, you... are you seriously injured?" Ciri stared at him in disbelief.

   Who is this deceiving?

   "I don't want you to accompany you for the medical expenses. You have to compensate for the damage..." Gu Mo said without changing his expression, "Just wipe this part of the money, and give the rest."

   The white-haired girl was silent.
