Chapter 189 The Maid Who Married in Place 23
Muchen did not tell Cheng's mother the origin of the child, nor did he tell her who the child's biological mother was.
But Cheng's mother was content with having a grandson and never asked about anything else, relying entirely on her own imagination.
Muchen wanted to give the old lady a thumbs up for her high level of cooperation.
There was a feeling that even if Muchen told her that the reason he didn't want to get married was because he liked men, the old lady would only give him one piece of advice.
Don't make a big deal about it, just keep him by your side as a servant.
The old lady is completely immune to what others say about her son, such as why he is still unmarried at such an old age.
When other people's sons become officials, their mothers and wives have to go out and socialize for the sake of their sons' or husbands' official careers.
Her son was determined to stay in the Hanlin Academy and didn't want to get promoted. Later, he went to teach.
She is an old lady who can't read a single word. Why does she go out to socialize? Let others say whatever they want.
Ever since Li Chenxi graduated from the Shangshufang, Muchen went to petition the emperor and went to the Imperial College to truly begin teaching and educating people.
Anyway, she was content with her life now. She had enough to eat, enough clothes to wear, and no hard labor. No one dared to bully her and her mother, and that was enough.
She has no knowledge and listens to her son in everything.
When Cheng's mother passed away, she could truly be said to have lived a long and blessed life!
She lived to the age of 98, an age that is extremely rare even in today's society.
Even during the funeral, the emperor of the time heard about this and specially sent an envoy to present Muchen with a heavy funeral ceremony.
This funeral ceremony not only demonstrates the royal family's care and favor for their subjects, but also represents that the people under his rule live in prosperity, peace and harmony.
There is no war and no conscription. The people live and work in peace and enjoy family happiness. They live long and healthy lives and live happy and fulfilling lives.
When Sirong returned to her body, 571 connected her with Muchen.
[Host, second host.]
There's an emergency right now. Do you two want to answer it?
If you complete the mission, the two of you can get a total of 3,000 points.
"What mission?" Sirong and Muchen asked at the same time.
[It's like this. A bug occurred in a small world that was traveling through the plate. A wormhole to a parallel universe appeared in that small world, and the girl of destiny in that world was attacked and killed by her own self in another parallel world.
Two groups of taskers have gone there to try to resolve this matter, but both ended in failure.
The current small world has already activated time reversal three times and can no longer withstand any more turmoil. If it fails this time, this small world will begin to collapse.
"Is it so dangerous?" Muchen didn't know much about parallel universes.
In total, he traveled through three worlds, one of which was a modern world, in which he was an old man.
The second world turned into a monkey, and this newly completed world was ancient.
[It is very dangerous, so I have communicated with the Heavenly Dao of that world and can allow the two of you to enter that world together to complete the mission.
But after you reach that world, you may lose contact with me. 】
"Ah? Why is this?"
Because that world is also a small world with an advanced civilization, and their technology conflicts with the technological principles of our intelligent brain. I cannot guarantee that I will be able to maintain contact with you in that world.
Of course, I may not be able to provide you with any other help. 】
"Just say whatever you want to say. Actually, you are not very useful in other worlds."
Sirong was speechless about Muchen's rudeness. 571 had obviously become more humane during this period. It would definitely be angry if Muchen said that.
Regardless of whether the little one is intentionally imitating or truly understands this emotion.
Anyway, Sirong could tell from its words just now that she was really worried about the two of them.
But Muchen is a good person, but he has a big mouth and he especially likes to tease Xiaowu.
571 didn't reply for a long time, which meant that she was really angry or sad.
"Xiao 5? Are you okay?" Sirong asked 571 with concern.
[I'm fine, host. I'll remember your words from now on and not play with fools! Humph!!!]
“Okay, let’s continue.
You just said that two groups of missionaries went and failed, so where is the danger in this world?"
[Okay, host. The danger of this world is that the original owner of another parallel world may come to this world and kill the original owner.]
The two people look the same and can share memories. That is to say, when the original owner of the other parallel world arrives in this world, their memories begin to synchronize.
The real person living in the original world, and his relatives and friends, find it difficult to tell the difference between the two of them.
That outsider has traveled through many parallel worlds. Every time she kills herself in a parallel world, the luck and abilities of that person will be absorbed by her.
The previous two groups of taskers went to this world alone. After arriving in this world, the systems on their bodies were disconnected from them.
Both groups of taskers are veterans who have completed many tasks, but the other party is too strong and difficult to deal with.
"Little 5, Little 5!"
Muchen also knew that he had just upset Xiao5. However, he was not afraid at all. They had experienced too many times when 571 was angry like this.
It won't take long for Muchen to coax it into submission.
"Xiao 5! What we're saying is, this mission is so dangerous, and you're only giving 3,000 points? Why don't you try to bargain with him for a lower price?"
Look, two of the taskers have already gone in. If the two of us can't come back, you will be left without a master!"
571 Hearing Muchen say this, I felt quite sad.
[Host, why don't we just not go! ]
"It's okay. We're short of points right now. If we can complete this mission, it will be equivalent to completing three. It has to be quite appropriate, after all, wealth and honor are sought in danger. But I think what Muchen said makes sense. Why don't you communicate with that Tiandao?"
[Okay, host, please wait for me! ]
After saying that, he went to negotiate a price with the Heavenly Dao of that world.
[Host, I'm back. The natural order of that world has been deprived of too much luck by the outsiders in the first two rounds, and it is now extremely poor.
He said that this is the maximum number of points you have, and at most you can take anything you like in this world.
When Muchen heard the news brought back by Xiao Wu, he smacked his lips and said, "Oh, so stingy! Sirong, what do you think? Are you still going?"
"I want to go. Like I said before, we are short of points."
