Transmigrant Alchemist And His Magic Wagon

Under surveillance

"Well, Zhi ge is really popular huh, cake. Look, everyone is willing to jostle just to greet Zhi ge," Mu Lian said.

Mu Lian, Mu Haocun and Meimei observed the Sky Mirror that was currently showing Meng Zhi within the crowd.

"Oh? Master, look. Someone was stealing glances at the wagon" Meimei said. Mu Lian turned her attention towards the person Meimei pointed at.

After finding one suspicious person, several other suspicious people were revealed very easily. There are those who blend in the crowd, some who blend in among the audience who do not dare to approach the cart.

"Ck, those people have never been seen before" said Master Yi. The audience gathered not far from the wagon turned out not to be from the group that Meng Zhi had once rescued. Their uniforms were more luxurious and resembled those of Zhongjian.

"It looks like they settled in another region and came here after hearing the Magic Wagon," Meimei said.

"Luckily this week the kids aren't out" said Mu Lian. That way no one will take a chance in a cringe.

Mu Lian found a lot of new faces constantly coming. They were clustered and scattered on tree trunks not far from the carts and monitored each other's movements.

The new groups approached cautiously. Keep distance from each other.

The situation out there made Mu Haocun frown. Being the center of attention is not always a good thing. Being the center of attention can bring in people with hidden agendas.

"Ah Zhi must drive those people away. Otherwise, they would become even more so," Mu Haocun said.

Although Master Yi and Meng Zhi did not hear Mu Haocun's words, the two thought the same thing.

Therefore, after Meng Zhi received the invitation of the meeting to discuss the upcoming exploration, Meng Zhi exchanged looks with Master Yi.

Then in unison they gave off the aura of their cultivator, intimidating the groups watching the wagon from a distance.

The aura that Meng Zhi and Master Yi exuded went very quickly like a heat wave. But what the aura brings is a collection of chi as well as a mixture of a little spiritual energy.

This aura of his nature attacked someone. Especially those intended to intimidate. A person who was exposed to this aura felt their entire body like they were entering into a giant cooler.

They stood up and felt that there was no safe place wherever they were. Immediately after sensing the fierce aura, the groups dispersed. They ran away like they were risking their lives.

Although Meng Zhi and Master Yi only intended to repel the people watching the cart from a distance, Meng Zhi and Master Yi were unable to control their auras.

So that the people around Meng Zhi and Master Yi were directly affected by the aura of Meng Zhi and Master Yi.

The color on their faces disappeared, their faces were wet from cold sweat. Some of the weaker people had already fallen.

Ling Zizhou simply yawned, pleased as Meng Zhi and Master Yi were being harsh to people who could not get him to sleep these few days. It had been a very long time that Ling Zizhou had been watching the groups that were eyeing the Magic Wagon.

"Sorry, we don't like people who sneak around like them so we can't wait to give a loud warning" Meng Zhi said.

"Uh-ja-so, you're not mad at us?" du Luhan said. His face was shiny because it was soaked in sweat.

"angry? Wh-wh-what for? Of course not. Come, we go to the meeting location," Meng Zhi said as she pulled Ling Zizhou's arm.

"Eh, Zhi ge, i-" but Meng Zhi just smiled threateningly, if not go with him, just look!

Ling Zizhou simply swallowed the words he was about to say and was forcibly taken by Meng Zhi to the meeting.

Why would meng Zhi just pull Ling Zizhou? Because Master Yi is nowhere to be seen. After helping Meng Zhi expel those people, Master Yi disappeared without a trace.

It was actually not without a trace as well because Mu Lian and Mu Haocun witnessed Master Yi's departure through the Sky Mirror. But Mu Haocun said that Master Yi was not really gone but was hiding.

Maybe occasionally patrolling without the knowledge of people around. Mu Haocun said that this was Master Yi's skill, it was hard to trace.

Mu Lian nodded and praised Master Yi inwardly. That said, these 2 Master Yi skills that Mu Lian knew were high-level skills that only a handful of people possessed.

Mu Lian, Meimei and Mu Haocun quietly observed the Sky Mirror for a few more moments. Currently outside, the crowd had dispersed because quite a number of people were attending the meeting.

There were only a handful of people passing by because it happened that their residence was close to the wagon. And of course Mu Lian, Meimei and Mu Haocun recognized the faces of those passing by.

"Because it seems like the meeting will last a long time, I will check on the children first," Meimei said finally after a long silence.

"Wait, I'm coming" said Mu Lian. Mu Haocun also immediately moved up and caught up with Mu Lian. After all there was Master Yi guarding the wagon so they didn't have to worry too much about security, at least for now.

Mu Lian followed Meimei and Mu Haocun walking under the night sky which was only illuminated by moonlight.

At that time there was only the sound of water flowing from the river, making the atmosphere of the night so shahdu. But Mu Lian thought the atmosphere at night felt very lonely, could make children feel anxious and bring up their sad memories.

Mu Lian plans to keep some diurnal animals that can accompany children to activities during the day and some nocturnal animals so that the atmosphere at night is not too quiet.

Mu Lian expressed her wish to Mu Haocun and Meimei.

"Of course it's a good idea! The animals can also help children thrive" Mu Haocun said.

"But is there a tame animal inside the True Cave? At least don't be so ferocious as spirit beasts. When viewed from the incident that happened to Xiaohan and Xiaoqiu, it seems that the animals here are dominated by mutated animals," Meimei said.

"This place is very large. Don't be discouraged just yet, who knows there are mutated animals that can be tamed," Mu Haocun said as he looked towards Mu Lian meaningfully.

Mu Lian unintentionally looked towards Mu Haocun as well and recalled something. Taming an animal is not a problem. Even Mu Lian believed that Mu Haocun's allure was greater than hers.

Mu Lian, Mu Haocun and Meimei discussed about the animals inside the True Cave enthusiastically until they unknowingly arrived in front of the gates of the children's residence.

As he passed through the gate and walked towards the main building, Mu Lian felt her head colder and windier.

When Mu Lian looked up to check on the 'dwellers' who inhabited over his head, it turned out that the occupants had been lost somewhere.

"Hmm? Xiaobai's gone!" said Meimei was surprised as well because he found Xiaobai was no longer on Mu Lian's head.

Xiaobai's movements failed to be detected by Meimei who was already at the core formation level! Not even Mu Haocun knew of Xiaobai's whereabouts.

"May jie! Ian jie!" xiaohan and Xiaoqiu exclaimed towards Meimei.

"..." - ".(Mu Lian and Mu Haocun)

The nature of men who always like visuals has been seen in Xiaohan and Xiaoqiu who are still 9 years old.

Evident by their attitude that always greeted Meimei first and always seemed to Meimei who looked first in the view of the two boys.

"Based on a snot boy," said Mu Haocun pulling Xiaohan's cheek which looked very happy in Meimei's embrace.

If Meng Zhi saw this, surely Meng Zhi would not remain silent. The Dao pair was not an arbitrary thing that could only be found once in a cultivator's life.

So, don't blame Meng Zhi if Meng Zhi can be jealous of a child. Well, if the child was very close to him, at least Meng Zhi's jealousy wouldn't be too severe. Mu Haocun could only shake his head.

"Grandfather Haocun, Lian jie, Mei jie," Xiaoleng, Xiaojia and the others said. Xiaofu and Xiaoqi who rarely spoke were also seen greeting along.

Seeing Xiaofu and Xiaoqi made Mu Lian's heart slightly sad. It felt like his heart was squeezed. Mu Lian was still worried about these two 12-year-olds in front of her who were forced to quickly mature in order to protect her younger siblings.

"How are you guys?" said Mu Haocun. Mu Haocun also paid more attention to Xiaofu and Xiaoqi recalling their wounds deeper than the others.

"Alright, thanks for the attention, Grandpa," Xiaofu said continuing, "Please sit down,"

Xiaoleng along with Xiaojia, Xiaobao and Xiaohua had already gone to the building that served as the living room and prepared tea and tidied the table.

Xiaofu and Xiaoqi waited near Mu Lian, Mu Haocun and Meimei to deliver them to the living room.

"Have your brothers gone to sleep?" Meimei.

"That's...Mei jie could see for herself," Xiaofu said exchanging glances with Xiaoqi then without saying anything delivering Mu Lian, Mu Haocun and Meimei to the bedroom.

First they visit the bedroom for the boys. Mu Lian peeked out from a crack in the door after Meimei and Mu Haocun finished peeking.

"Oh, as usual. They have to expend their excessive energy before they can sleep," Meimei said. Xiaofu and Xiaoqi nodded.

Inside the room, Mu Lian could see a mini battlefield. The kids were fighting pillows and running to and fro.

Xiaohan and Xiaoqiu could only wash their lips because they were not allowed to come because if allowed to come along, the children would not sleep and play until morning.

Next Mu Lian and the others were taken to the girls bedroom. A young girl's voice sounded from behind the door.

After being peeked, it turns out they were reading a story before going to bed. The story happened to be rewritten by Mu Lian, a bedtime story often found on Earth.

Some of the stories are from abroad, there are even 1001 stories of the night. The rest, donated from Mu Haocun's private collection.

"The girls still love to read stories" Meimei smiled. Mu Lian and Mu Haocun smiled as well.

"Xiaoleng and the others are already waiting, Grandpa, Mei jie, Lian jie," Xiaofu said.

Mu Lian and the others followed Xiaofu and Xiaoqi walking towards the living room. The children's residence complex is composed of several parks. There is a pond containing fine sand to make various creations as well.

Swings, slides and various other rides. What is not there is a pond and various things related to water.

To maintain the safety of the children Mu Lian was deliberately making the bathroom in the form of a shower.

After passing through the sand pond and garden with colorful flowers, Mu Lian and the others arrived at the half-open building.

Mu Lian could see the contents of the building from a distance because it had no doors at all. Only the opening in the form of a moon gate that adorns the side of the building.

"Grandfather, is actually a mutant spirit beast that strong or not anyway? Why are the features slightly different from ordinary spirit beasts? How weird is that? What makes them like that?" xiaohan and Xiaoqiu said alternately.

Just sitting down, Xiaojiu and Xiaohua had not even brewed tea, Xiaohan and Xiaoqiu had already asked Mu Haocun questions nonstop.

Xiaoleng snatched the head of XIaohan and Xiaoqiu gently who was met with protest,

"Well, is it okay to ask? We are very curious!"

"At least let grandfather drink his tea first, this is you," Xiaoleng said shook her head.

"It's okay. So, this is just the assumption of grandfather, yes. This spirit beast has already adapted." Mu Haocun said answering the questions Xiaohan and Xiaoqiu asked one by one.

While Mu Haocun explained the characteristics of the spirit beasts inside the True Cave based on his hypothesis, Mu Lian and Meimei chatted with Xiaofu and Xiaoqi.

But since Xiaofu and Xiaoqi only answered what was asked of them, the conversation turned into a question and answer session.

Time went by very quickly and Mu Lian subconsciously heard no more Xiaohan and Xiaoqiu's voices.

When Mu Lian turned her head towards Mu Haocun, Xiaohan, Xiaoqiu, Xiaobao, and Xiaojia were already sleeping sprawled near Mu Hagoun.

And Xiaoleng, despite not falling asleep, looked very sleepy. He restrained his sleepiness from having to bring the sleeping children.

"It doesn't feel like the night is getting late. Come on, get ready," Meimei told Xiaofu and Xiaoqi.

Mu Lian moved Xiaohua's head on her lap and went to the mini kitchen to heat the water and make herbal tea.

This herbal tea serves as a sedative and helps insomnia Xiaofu and Xiaoqi.

After Xiaofu and Xiaoqi drank the herbal tea, Mu Lian, Mu Haocun, Meimei, Xiaoleng, and Xiaofu moved the sleeping children to their respective rooms.

After moving the children, Mu Lian, Meimei and Mu Haocun returned to the control room. On the way, they passed Meng Zhi who came in with a frown.
