Chapter 2880 Flashback 05
After making their rounds, Jin Chen and Lu Jun swaggered out again and left the Earth God Temple in full view of everyone.
Then, he quietly took a detour, slipped back through the back door, and hid behind the artificial hill outside the treasure pavilion.
“Wait,” Jin Chen said, “that thief will definitely take advantage of the chaos to make a move once he hears the news.”
Lu Jun nodded, and the two of them held their breath and began to lie in wait.
Wait and wait.
A quarter of an hour passed, half an hour passed, an hour passed...
Not to mention a thief, we didn't even see a passing fairy.
Lu Jun yawned and nudged Jin Chen, "Are you sure this method will work? I have a feeling..."
Before he could finish speaking, a cry of alarm suddenly rang out from inside the treasure vault, "Oh no! A thief!"
Jin Chen and Lu Jun exchanged a glance and rushed inside.
"Where are the thieves?!" Lu Jun shouted, his dragon might faintly emanating from him.
The little fairy boy was somewhat dazed. "There...there!"
Jin Chen walked in the direction he pointed.
In the corner squatted a boy who looked to be about ten years old. He was very pretty, with chubby cheeks, and was wearing a golden jacket. He was happily munching on Hongyu.
Standing next to the doll was Bai Ze, who should have been in the main temple.
In Bai Ze's hand, there were several spirit stones and jade materials that had clearly been gnawed on and had teeth marks. The expression on his face was... hard to describe, as if he was helpless, or as if he had expected it.
Jin Chen: "?"
Jin Chen's gaze swept back and forth between the boy, Bai Ze, and the stolen goods in the boy's hands, her mind a little slow to process what was happening.
wrong.
Jin Chen exclaimed in surprise and condemnation, "Bai Ze, you pervert!"
Bai Ze: "..."
His lips twitched, but before he could speak, the baby seemed to have eaten its fill. It dropped Hongyu, got up, and rushed towards Jinchen, its short legs carrying it as it ran towards him, shouting happily as it went.
"Master! Master!"
Jin Chen: "!!!"
He took a half step back, almost scared out of his wits by the shout of "master".
Lu Jun also condemned, "...Jin Chen, you pervert."
Jin Chen: "..."
The baby had already rushed up to him, stretching out her chubby little arms to hug his leg.
Jin Chen picked the person up and looked them over carefully. "Who are you?"
"I am Gun Gun!"
Jin Chen: "..."
He was momentarily at a loss for what to be shocked about.
Ling Gun Gun hasn't even finished its infancy yet, so it shouldn't be transforming into human form so quickly.
This is what Zero looks like after transforming.
Zero Roll is the real culprit behind the recent series of cases in the God Realm... No wonder! No wonder every time something happens right after he goes there, this gluttonous little rascal must be following him and sneaking off to have a snack when he's not looking.
Jin Chen pinched his cheek, "It's because you're always taking advantage of other people's treasures, and you're making me take the blame."
Zero is arrogant despite being unreasonable; it's obvious who taught him.
"I'm just very hungry, but my master never feeds me enough."
Jin Chen is innocent.
"When have I ever let you go hungry? You're not a glutton... Wait, do you know how difficult it is to raise yourself? How many spirit stones and jade marrow do you need to eat every day!"
Bai Ze bent down and picked up the piece of red jade that had been gnawed in half, with teeth marks still visible on it.
He looked at the teeth mark and found it cute, so he tucked it into his sleeve, then walked over, took Ling Gungun from Jin Chen's arms, and hugged it close to his chest.
“Ancient divine beasts are different from ordinary divine beasts. Rolling is not fat. It’s because you’re starving him all day long.”
"It's still young and can't control its instincts. It only knows that it needs to find something to eat when it's hungry. You don't understand its needs, but instead blame it for being greedy and starve it all day, saying it's fat."
"I..." Jin Chen was unusually a little guilty, but he refused to admit defeat. "But it can't just gnaw on everything! And it only picks the good parts to gnaw on!"
Jin Chen wanted to complain to her master.
A complaint against Bai Ze! A complaint against Ling Gun Gun!
-
Jin Chen was mercilessly mocked by Lu Jun, and in a fit of frustration, she fought with Lu Jun. Then, with her hair disheveled by Lu Jun's dragon claws, she stormed back to the main temple.
It's quiet at night.
Jin Chen lay on the bed in the main temple, holding the communication stone used to contact Chen Shu, and muttered to himself, embellishing the story of what had happened that day.
The main accusation is that Bai Ze protected criminals, committed insubordination, and abducted his spirit pet.
There's also Ling Gun Gun, who betrayed his own people and ruined his reputation. They even said that Ling Gun Gun had transformed into a chubby little baby.
Finally, he complained that his master had been gone for too long, and no one in the divine realm cared about him anymore; all the gods were bullying him.
As he spoke, his voice became smaller and smaller.
Still clutching the communication stone, Mu Tou had already drifted off to sleep, the blanket only draped around his waist, and one leg dangling off the edge of the bed—his sleeping posture was hardly proper.
As night deepened, the palace doors were gently pushed open.
When Chen Shu returned from his inspection, he saw Jin Chen sleeping sprawled out on the bed. He shook his head helplessly, walked to the bedside, sat down, helped Jin Chen remove his slightly disheveled outer robe, pulled the blanket over him, and brushed his fingertips across Jin Chen's cheek.
Jin Chen groggily opened her eyes as soon as her fingertips touched the corner of the blanket.
"Master...?"
"Well, I'm back."
Chen Shu took his hand, sat down on the edge of the bed, and pulled him, blanket and all, into his arms, gently patting his back. "Why did you fall asleep like that? You didn't even cover yourself properly."
Jin Chen yawned and wrapped her arms around Chen Shu's waist. "Master has been gone for a long time."
Chen Shu lowered his head and gently kissed his forehead. "Tomorrow, send the spirit stones lost by the various temples, and also keep a good eye on Pixiu and Bai Ze, okay?"
Jin Chen thought for a moment, "Forget it, Ling Dan just transformed and doesn't know any better. If anyone should be punished, it should be Bai Ze."
"It's his fault for secretly feeding the hamster behind my back and cleaning up its mess."
"With Master not here, they don't listen to me."
These words sounded aggrieved, but there wasn't much genuine grievance in them; it was more like she was being coquettish.
Chen Shu chuckled softly, running his fingers through the long hair scattered on the pillow, gently combing it. "I'll have Bai Ze prepare the Pixiu's food from now on. As for Bai Ze, I'll talk to him myself."
Jin Chen twirled a strand of Chen Shu's hair between his fingers. "Is the Three Thousand Realms fun?"
"It's okay."
“There are a few interesting little worlds out there. Next time, if you can calm down, I’ll take you to see them.”
"Really?"
"Ah."
Jin Chen was satisfied and went back to her nest.
After a while, he muttered to himself, "Then next time I should bring Zero Egg along too. It just transformed and should see the world."
Chen Shu raised an eyebrow, "Aren't you afraid it will cause trouble again?"
"So what if I've caused trouble?" Jin Chen said matter-of-factly, "Anyway, Master is here."
Chen Shu lowered her head and kissed the top of his head. "Okay."
The nights in the realm of gods are always long, long enough to accommodate all capriciousness and tenderness.
The red jade that Bai Ze had put away was carefully preserved by him and remained there for many, many years.
Until one day, the little Pixiu wandered in and tilted its head to look at it for a long time.
Then I remembered.
"Okay, I remember now."
"It's all in the past," Bai Ze said softly, it was unclear whether he was speaking to Ling Gun Gun or to himself.
"Rest well now, and you can continue to follow Jinchen once you've recovered."
Ling Gun Gun nodded vigorously, "I need to recover quickly!"
