Chapter 446
Chu Jin stayed at the old woman's house, and together with Linglong helped the old woman clean up the dishes, and ordered Sanfu to hang up the dried fish that the old woman hadn't hung in front of the door and sprinkle salt on it.

The old woman's eyes narrowed into a smile, "My son said, my wife is also warm-hearted, just like a nobleman."

"Mother-in-law, where does your son work? If there are people I know well in that area, see if you can accommodate your son for a few days off and let him bring his wife and children back to see you."

The old woman smiled without saying a word, put the washed dishes back in the distance, turned and left the kitchen.

Linglong muttered in a low voice, "Miss, this old lady is so strange, you are doing her best, but she doesn't appreciate it."

"Let's say a few words, it's us who bothered her old man, so how can there be any reason behind it?"

I followed into the hall, and saw the old woman moved a wicker chair and sat in front of the door, picking seashells in the basin.

Under the reflection of the sun, those shells radiated colorful lights, Chu Jin leaned forward and squatted down to look at them strangely, "Mother-in-law, these shells are beautiful, where did you pick them up?"

She has never seen such a beautiful shell. The texture and color are as if carefully painted with paint. The bright light has coated a layer of film on the shell. It feels silky and smooth, without the raised and rough particles of ordinary shellfish shells. feel.

She thought it would not be easy to go out of the palace, and she would definitely like to pick up some of these gadgets and bring them back to the palace for Luan Yu and Chanting Songs.

The old woman saw through her thoughts, picked two of the most dazzling ones and handed them to Chu Jin, "Take it if you like it, it's not a rare thing."

Chu Jin was a little embarrassed, "No, no. I have eaten my mother-in-law's meal for nothing, and I have been nagging at your house for a long time, so how can I still take your things for nothing? Tell me where I picked it up, and I will take Linglong and the others to get it." good."

"These." The old woman put the shells back into the tub, raised her smiling eyes and looked at Chu Jin, "I picked them up from the sea of ​​candle fireflies."

"You don't mean the boundary."

"Your Excellency." The old woman interrupted Chu Jin's words, "The old woman has a question and wants to discuss a clear answer with the nobleman. If a poor scholar falls in love with a lady from a family of one thousand gold, and the two want to be together, treat each other They are also sincerely good to each other. But the relatives of the woman do not agree with this marriage, and beat the mandarin ducks to prevent the two from meeting, what do you think of this matter?"

Chu Jin brushed off the gravel from the hem of her skirt, stood up and leaned against the door frame, "Well, if you really love each other, your family background is really nothing. Although marriage is a matter of parents' order and matchmaker's words, but in the future, it is the people who live down-to-earth. A new couple. Love is the basis for living a good life, if love does not exist, just thinking that you are in the right family, it would be putting the cart before the horse.”

"Okay, good answer, my lord." The old woman clapped her hands lightly twice, and asked again: "If it's the same Miss Qianjin who tells her parents that she likes a dog that she raised by her side since she was a child, and wants to be with it forever?" Shou never married for life and regarded the dog as her husband. The parents thought the young lady was crazy and beat the dog to death in a rage. What do you think about this matter?"

"Pfft..." Chu Jin hadn't answered yet, but Linglong laughed, "Grandmother, you really know how to joke, where is there someone arguing about marrying a dog? What's the matter, hahaha~~~~ ~"

"Why is the girl smiling?"

"A dog is a dog after all, and a person is always a person. I have seen many people raising dogs since I was a child. Can you see who is going to marry their own dog?"

The old woman smiled, "Young lady, do you think this is wrong?"

"Naturally, how can a person and a dog communicate? A forcible union of different species, isn't it incest?"

Linglong and the old woman began to discuss each other, but Chu Jin could hear something wrong in the words.

The old woman used people and dogs to ask questions, no matter how it sounded, it seemed to be mirroring the matter of herself and Xuan Jue being one person and one dragon.

Did she notice something, or was she just chatting for nothing?

Chu Jin squinted at the old woman, and for some reason a chill came over her, which made her skin crawl.

She took Linglong's hand and said to the old woman: "Mother-in-law, I suddenly remembered that there are still things at home, so I will not stay any longer. Please wait until my husband returns, and tell him that I have already returned home first." After finishing speaking, she raised her face Dazed Linglong ran out, and even called San Fu who was still drying the dried salted fish to leave together.

Before taking two steps, the old woman's deep laughter came from behind, "Why do you need to be in such a hurry?"

Chu Jin ignored her and continued to leave at a faster pace without stopping.

The old woman stared at her panicked back, smiled and waved her hand, and the three master and servant fell to the ground and fell into a coma.

On the other side, Xuan Jue floating on the East China Sea was almost approaching the center of the East China Sea.

At this moment, the sky has darkened, and the sea surface is sprinkled with orange-yellow sparkling waves by the setting sun, which is as beautiful as a flower.

When Fang set off, many fishing boats could be seen swimming on the sea.

The closer you get to the sea of ​​candle fireflies, the fewer fishing boats there are.

After the sky completely darkened, the sea was terribly quiet, occasionally there were a few seabirds singing in the boundless sky, everything was so peaceful and peaceful.

Suddenly, a large orchid spot of light appeared in front of Xuan Jue's eyes on the distant sea.

Like stars broken on the surface of the sea, with the waves floating one after another, shining with gentle light.

Xuan Jue knew that it was the sea of ​​candle fireflies mentioned by the old woman, where mortals never return.

Thinking that Mother of Dragon might be in the middle, Xuanjue felt a little uneasy.

Ever since he learned his true identity, he never imagined what it would be like when he met his biological mother one day.

Whether the mother can recognize him at a glance, whether she will blame him for still lingering in the world after knowing the truth, everything is unknown.

With such apprehension in mind, Xuan Jue turned his heart and accelerated the speed of floating.

After entering the sea of ​​candle fireflies, Xuan Jue finally knew the truth about those people who never returned.

In the moment of entering this place, the surrounding scene has changed.

The dazzling blue light filled the entire space, and there were snowflake-like pieces of ice floating in the air. The full moon above the sky was magnified several times here, and the temperature plummeted as cold as nine days.

Looking back, I couldn't find the way I came from.

There are a few ships scattered in the distance, their bodies are covered with thick ice, only the pointed corner of the sail is still exposed.Lying in the cabin were several humanoid ice sculptures that had been completely covered by ice and snow, with no faces but outlines.

Xuan Jue sensed that the barrier of this land was cast down by someone.

Ordinary people will only go around in circles when they enter, and eventually die here because they can't find a way out and can't stand the bitter cold.

Could this be the habitat of the Dragon Mother?

In order to protect the god of Dazhao, she rescued countless people who were in shipwreck in Dazhao. How could she set up such a barrier in the East China Sea and take the names of these people alive?

Just when Xuan Jue was puzzled, there were bursts of melodious female singing from afar.
