Chapter One: Released from Prison

  In the Daughter Country, I urinated two memorable bubbles, one behind the mountain at home and another also behind the fake mountain...

  After settling the personal matter, Yun Qin Wang led the way in front of us and we arrived at a small house behind a garden. The queen was already waiting there. This time, there were no grand ceremonies, only a few attendants and guards accompanied her. The queen wore a blue brocade robe - blue is a noble color in our country.

  Without any further ado, the queen pulled me by the hand and said with a smile: "Sir, don't forget our agreement - when you come to our country again, I'll invite you to a hundred-flower feast."

  "Uh... okay." She didn't know that I had already made plans with my mom beforehand, and at this moment, I felt a bit guilty, no matter what. A woman was eagerly waiting for me to come back and have dinner with her, even though she was the queen, and it wasn't just about having dinner, I still felt apologetic, so I could only muddle through.

  "Go inside," said Yun Qinwang, pointing at the door of that small house. "They're all waiting for you."

  I pushed the door open and saw a chair placed in the middle of the room, with four white-haired old ladies sitting around it. When they saw me come in, one of them nodded at me and said, "Sit down."

  I sat in the middle chair, and the old lady said: "Take out the bracelet and clench it in your hand."

  I did as I was told, and the four old women each took out a pile of greenish-blue stones from their sleeves and held them in their palms. None of them said a word, and the old woman who had spoken earlier said: "If Mr. Sword God is ready, we can begin."

  "Has it started already?"

  The old lady said: "Is there anything else?"

  "There is no..."

  I didn't expect it to start so soon, and it seems like my heart really wasn't prepared. In this country of women, I've had a thrilling experience - I broke out of prison, acknowledged my mom, peed in the imperial garden, and had dinner with the queen. Suddenly, I have to leave, and only now do I realize that there are many people in this strange land that I'm not willing to part with. First, there's my old mom, who will be leading her female soldiers into a fierce battle with an uncertain outcome. Then there are my newly acknowledged brothers, who are wandering the world, struggling to survive in the cracks. And then there's my new disciple, and the gentle queen, and that ** king...

  The old lady said expressionlessly: "Later on, Mr. Sword God doesn't need to do anything, the whole process will take about an hour or so."

  I nodded and said: "Good"

  The old lady said: "Then let's start." She led the way by putting her arm on my shoulder, and I hastily said: "Wait a minute!"

  "Anything else?"

  "I muttered: 'After I leave, trouble you to tell people outside, I will miss them.'"

  "Definitely convey." The old lady still had no expression on her face, she gestured to the other three people to start, and the four of them put their arms around my shoulders, muttering to themselves, with the stones in their hands shining brightly.

  I pinched Su Jing's bracelet, my heart racing with anxiety. Gradually, the bracelet also showed a hint of green mist. Ten or so minutes passed, and except for the green mist growing thicker, those four old women remained as calm as monks reciting scriptures. At first, I felt quite tense, but slowly relaxed. Half an hour later, the green light on the bracelet seemed to be about to shine through, and I didn't have any interest in watching anymore, starting to feel drowsy. The old women's chanting grew more urgent, I dozed off and suddenly woke up to see them sweating, their lips trembling slightly. By this time, I had no idea how much time had passed, only guessing that it was almost over. Suddenly, one of the elderly people's eyes flashed, and she shouted loudly: "Leave!"

  I felt a huge dizziness, just like being on a roller coaster in free fall, my whole body was shifting, I unconsciously closed my eyes, the feeling went from strong to weak and then back again several times, finally slowly calming down, before I even opened my eyes, I had an urge to cry - my ears had already caught the hustle and bustle of modern society!

  I tried to open my eyes a crack, and yes! If I wasn't mistaken, I was already standing on a bustling street! I covered my head with my hand, it seemed that I wasn't quite used to the sunlight here yet... P: Book friends! Those who can't comment on book reviews, please try logging in through this website!

  On the street, people were busy with their own affairs, just like when I crossed into Women's Country, no one noticed a stranger's movements - oh wait, there was one, a taxi driver who looked at me strangely, as if he had been paying attention to me for half a day. Seeing me look at him, he stuck his head out the window and asked tentatively: "Going somewhere?"

  "Let's go!" I said firmly.

  "Where are you going?"

  "The East Train Station," I said.

  Sitting in the car, looking at pedestrians outside the window, I felt a mix of emotions. My first feeling was that I had returned to a man's world again. Even seeing people spitting and throwing cigarette butts on the road seemed familiar. The driver, who must have been driving for a long time, pulled out half a pack of cigarettes and looked at me: "Can I smoke?"

  "Go ahead and smoke!" I licked my tongue and said, my last cigarette was confiscated by my mom, now seeing someone smoking makes my throat itch, the master kindly handed me one, my eyes couldn't help but get moist, it's still a man's world that's great, damn this really feels like home!

  The master saw me acting strangely and asked: "Where are you from? You're not a local, are you?"

  I smiled wryly and said: "I've lived here for over 20 years but have become an outsider."

  "Have you just returned from abroad?"

  "I wondered: 'How did you see through it?'"

  The master said with a smirk: "You people have a kind of energy, you get excited about everything. Last time I sent an old overseas Chinese, he saw the tofu brain vendors on the street and was so moved that he couldn't help himself, went down and ate 3 bowls."

  "...the old overseas Chinese have a really good appetite."

  "And you, where did you come from?"

  "The Country of Women."

  Master was stunned for a moment: "So you ran into the Art Palace of Journey to the West and turned around in circles, and it's all sighs and regrets now!"

  "...No, it's a true daughter country."

  "Oh, it's some African tribe's scenic spot"

  "Anyway, it's all up to women, after all. The child doesn't take the man's surname, and when a man gets married, he's basically sold himself."

  The master smiled and said: "There's still such a good place, next time you go take me with you."

  "You'll be singing a different tune when you're really gone."

  Master, when I was boasting about driving on a big mountain, you didn't take it seriously. When the car arrived at the destination and I pressed the button to display the mileage, it said "34".

  I pulled out a 50 and handed it to him: "Don't bother looking for change, but you'd better not spend this money, after all, we've been through thick and thin together."

  ……

  I got off the car and stood outside my small inn, and I couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. The three fruit trees that Old Wu had planted in front of my door had grown much taller. The door to the inn was open, and I walked in with big strides. As soon as I entered, someone inside said without even lifting their head, "If you want to stay, the boss is not here." Duan Tianya was sitting in my usual spot, playing with my abacus...

  "I said irritably: 'The boss is back!'"

  Duan Tianya suddenly raised his head and exclaimed: "Long Yangyang?"

  As soon as he shouted, a large group of people rushed out of the small restaurant, and Old Wu, who was facing him, was also surprised: "Little Dragon, you're back?"

  "Whoa! Where did you go?" Jin Chengwu shouted from behind him.

  A few simple words, my heart warmed up, I found that in this world, I also have a group of friends who care about me. Although we didn't spend much time together, their excitement was still infectious. Xiao Qian covered her mouth and said: "Xiao Long Gege, you're finally back!"

  "Come on, let me see if you've gained or lost weight?"

  Xiao Qian smiled and said: "I haven't changed much, but there is one person who has really lost weight."

  "Hei Shan Lao Yao shouted loudly as he rushed upstairs: 'Su Jing, Su Jing, that Dragon fellow has returned!'"

  "I said with discontent: 'What's this about that surname Long fellow returning?' Since coming back from the Country of Women, I've had more than enough of this kind of talk."

  More sensitive...

  A sudden rush of footsteps echoed from the stairs, Su Jing appeared at the corner, almost unable to stop, and the majestic Sword God emerged.

  In such a state, she was obviously excited and couldn't help herself. She stared at me steadily for a moment, then suddenly lost her words: "You..."

  "What are you? By generation, you should call me Master Ancestor. Bitter Plum is my disciple, didn't you know?"

  Su Jing quickly walked up to me and said with endless relief in her tone: "You're finally back."

  It was the first time I saw that beautiful girl, elegant and refined, but lacking a bit of calmness and with a few more worries.

  I hummed: "What if I don't come back, why haven't you guys left yet?" I turned to Old Wu and the others.

  "The rent is due, isn't it? It's been over a month already?"

  Old Wu laughed and said: "Anyway, I still don't have any money."

  I looked at Su Jingdao and asked, "Has that bad Taoist priest stopped causing trouble?" I suddenly realized that actually, all along

  What I'm most worried about is Su Jing. The evil Taoist has taken 30% of my sword energy, and now he's joining forces with Lu Renjia.

  No longer holding back, I had a nagging worry in my heart when I just entered the door, and now I can finally put my heart at ease.

  Su Jing anxiously asked: "Don't mention those things for now, tell me how you came back?" She calmed down and immediately said,

  "Have you seen my master? You said you went to the Country of Women?"

  I said: "Not only did I go, but also stirred up a big fuss. The three most powerful women in your country, I've got them all."

  "Look, it's still a bit short of being a pure relationship between a man and a woman..."

  Su Jing suddenly realized: "Is it Yun Qinwang? You also saw the Empress Dowager - oh, she sent someone to send you back"

  "Arrived."

  "Full hit."

  "Who else is there?"

  I deliberately asked her: "Who else is the most awesome in your country?"

  Su Jing's eyes sparkled as she said: "General, you've seen it too?"

  I sighed and said: "She's going to lead the troops personally tomorrow."

  "What's going on?"

  "Heiji has made his move, a traitor has emerged from the 18-nation alliance, colluding with Heiji's army to defeat the 50,000-strong Fei Feng army"

  Stranded on the mountain, Old... General, she has to go rescue them."

  "They arrived so quickly!"

  "Alright, let's talk about these things later," Jin Chengwu coughed and said, "Little Dragon, I think you should first give..."

  "Call home, your stepmother with the surname Meng is almost going crazy looking for you."

  "Aunt Meng? What does she want with me?"

  "It seems like she's in a hurry, we don't dare tell her the truth, unless she already knows that we are your friends"

  "Friend, it seems like we're just short of being tortured into confessing."

  I quickly opened my phone and found Aunt Meng's number and dialed it. The call connected before I could even...

  "What's going on?" Just then, Meng's mother grumbled with a belly full of complaints: "Long Yangyang, where did you run off to? If you don't show up soon, I'll think you've been eaten by a tiger!"

  "Someone's been slaughtered!"

  I smiled and said: "After leaving the country, Aunt Meng found me with something?"

  "Are you still asking? Do you know what day today is?"

  I flipped through the calendar and it seems like today is just an ordinary day, neither the beginning of summer nor any other solar term.

  It's not a certain someone's birthday anniversary either. I carefully asked: "Is today your birthday?"

  "Shut up! Your dad is coming out today!"

  I slapped my forehead hard: "Damn it!" Today just happened to be the day Dad was released from prison, and these days I

  With a mind preoccupied and being in a country dominated by women, I completely forgot about it!

  "Aunt Meng suddenly lowered her voice and said: 'We are having a welcome dinner for your father at the Golden Jade Hotel, hurry over.'"

  "Your dad didn't say anything to your face, but he's already suspected something in his heart."

  "I'll be right there!"

  I slammed down the phone and exclaimed: "It's all over! My dad is getting out of prison today, I won't make it in time for dinner!"

  Afraid of crossing over again."

  Su Jingdao said: "I'll go with you!"

  "What are you going to do?"

  Su Jingdao said: "Bad Tao and Lu Renjia may appear at any time, it's still the old rules, I have to protect you."

  "Come on, let's hurry!"
