Chapter 3384: The Worried Housekeeper, the Group’s Favorite Xiao Mi Li

The sky is blue and vast, the clouds are white, and the ages pass by with the wind. The Great Wall of Sword Qi, towering into the clouds, stands eternally between heaven and earth, where the wild world and the vast world border.

South of the high wall is a desolate and ferocious world. Billions of monsters live in this world. Their survival is difficult, their spiritual resources are scarce, their resources are poor, and it is difficult to practice. In order to obtain a better living environment, they have always hoped to be able to cultivate. After crossing this high wall, we entered the vibrant world to the north of the high wall and lived in the world full of inspiration.

To the north of the high wall is a city without walls, with not a single brick outside the city. Hundreds of thousands of sword cultivators, isolated from the world, have lived here for generations. Except for a very few people who can go to Daoxuan Mountain, almost all of them abide by the ancestral precepts and never go to that vast world in their lives.

Sword cultivators live and die here. They are proud to die outside the Great Sword Qi Wall and are ashamed to die in old age inside the Great Sword Qi Wall.

In the city north of the Great Sword Qi Wall, a swordsman in blue was holding the hand of a little girl in black and walked slowly from Haoran Tianxia. They first went back to the alley, which was Zhou Jue's residence. The yard was not big. It was very shabby, because the servants of the Ning Mansion helped take care of it, but it didn't look dilapidated because of more than a year of travel.

Zhou Mili looked at this small courtyard and became familiar with the environment in a short time. She even clearly counted the chairs in the house because Zhou Jue had promised her long ago to be the housekeeper and take charge of the Zhou family. All money.

Xiaomi Li put his hands behind his back and walked steadily in the small courtyard. With a sad look on his face, he said to Zhou Jue who was sitting on the stone bench.

"Zhou Jue, our family seems to be too poor, and I, the great butler, don't have much room to do anything!"

Zhou Jue looked at the serious-looking little girl in black in a funny way, without the slightest hint of sadness, and said with a smile.

"Zhou Mili, from now on the Zhou Mansion will be taken care of by you!"

The sadness on Zhou Mili's face became even more obvious when he heard this. Zhou Jue's life was too miserable. His family didn't have any assets, so he was worse off than himself. No wonder he spent money on himself along the way.

"Zhou Jue, we can't just sit there and have nothing to eat. The most urgent thing is to make some money, otherwise we won't even be able to eat!"

The little girl in black didn't complain that Zhou Mansion was too poor, but she felt a little guilty in her heart. Zhou Jue was so poor, and he spent two pieces of support money to buy himself. That should be his entire property, right? I have often scolded Zhou Jue as a big liar who defrauded me of my money. It was really inappropriate!

"Zhou Jue, let's go to the city restaurant tomorrow to find some work to do?"

Millet grains can't make a meal without rice. All the features on her small face are wrinkled together, and her two pale eyebrows are like caterpillars, constantly squirming. She is now filled with worry, thinking about how to increase revenue and reduce expenditure to survive this day.

"What kind of job are you looking for?"

Zhou Jue sat lazily in front of the stone table, drinking tea very comfortably. The tea was the cheapest, and it was very bitter, which made him frown slightly, as if he was not used to it, and he said lightly without feeling any sadness at all.

"I am a great swordsman. If I work as a waiter in a restaurant, it would be a joke. It would be too embarrassing!"

When Zhou Mili heard this, he thought about it carefully and thought that what Zhou Jue said made sense. Zhou Jue was a great swordsman, a great master who could talk and laugh with the scholar and ancestor. If he went to a restaurant to bartend, people would indeed laugh at him.

The little girl in black had a determined look on her face, her big black and white eyes stared at Zhou Jue seriously, she raised her little hand that was clenched into a fist, and said confidently.

"Then I'll work as a waiter in a restaurant by myself. Now that I'm strong enough, I should be able to support the two of us!"

Zhou Jue felt a warm current flowing through his heart. He stopped drinking tea, looked at the millet grains with great emotion, and asked.

"You are the big water monster in Mute Lake. Are you not afraid of being embarrassed when you become a waiter?"

Zhou Mili did not waver, looked at Zhou Jue very seriously, smiled, and whispered.

"No one knows me, and the big water monster in Dumb Lake is not a big shot. What's there to be ashamed of?"

Zhou Jue was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then asked again.

"The Holy Master has promised to record you in the history books. In the future, everyone in the world will know you as the Great Water Monster of Dumb Lake. Aren't you afraid of being embarrassed by this?"

Zhou Mili's little face was wrinkled, full of worries. He held his two little hands tightly and struggled for a long time before he spoke.

"It's okay to be embarrassed. We both have to live together. It's better for me to be embarrassed alone than for two people to be embarrassed!"

Zhou Mili had been living in the dumb lake before. He was cautious and cautious, but as brave as a rice grain. He never dared to go ashore. He was inexperienced in worldly affairs and naive. Although he knew that great swordsmen like Zhou Jue were very powerful, he didn't really understand the Fourteeners. The pure realm represents the meaning of sword cultivation.

Zhou Jue pulled the worried little girl in black over and pressed her down on the stone bench. The little girl was short and her two short legs were off the ground, dangling in the air.

"Okay, Butler Zhou, don't worry. This is just the old residence of my Zhou family. I have other mansions in the city, but they are very prestigious. We don't have to worry about money when we live there in the future!"

As Zhou Jue is the number one swordsman in the world, he naturally has a sword fairy mansion in the most prosperous area of ​​the city, and even some assets given by other families. It's just that he is too lazy to take care of it, so he is not short of money at all.

"Really? Zhou Jue, you won't lie to me again!"

Zhou Mili stared at Zhou Jue's face with suspicion. She had been deceived by Zhou Jue a lot in the past year. Every time in order to get her to pay, Zhou Jue said that he would pay her back in the future, but so far she has not seen anyone turn around. money.

Zhou Jue shook his head. He had no integrity in the heart of the little girl in black. He stood up, looked down at Zhou Mili and said.

"Let's go to Ning Mansion first, take you to meet my junior sister Ning Yao, and then go and see my mansion. You will know if I lied to you!"

"Am I going to see Miss Ning like this?"

"I haven't even prepared any gifts. Isn't it too abrupt?"

Zhou Mili once heard from passers-by on the shore that when visiting someone's home for the first time, you need to give a greeting gift so as not to be rude.

"No need, leave quickly!"

Zhou Jue shook his head. He had spent all the money on Xiaomi Li, so how could he still have the money to prepare a gift for Ning Yao.

Zhou Mili jumped down from the stone bench, still a little worried. She had heard about Ning Yao for a long time and wanted to get to know him for a long time.

"Will Miss Ning like me? Will she hate me?"

The little girl in black had nowhere to put her little hands, clutching her clothes tightly, and asked with some anxiety.

Zhou Jue stretched out his right hand and took Zhou Mili's little hand. The warmth in his palm made the little girl feel very at ease, and all her worries disappeared at this moment.

"No, Ning Yao will definitely like you very much!"

Zhou Jue and Zhou Mili, one big and one small, one demon and one demon, walked along the bluestone path eroded by the years. Their shadows gradually came closer to each other on the ground, warming each other.

The two came to a high-ranking mansion. There were two stone lions guarding the gate. They were one foot three tall, ferocious and mighty, with astonishing evil aura. They were intimidating and made their liver and gallbladder tremble, enough to scare away the timid. There is a plaque hanging above the gate of the mansion, with the two characters Ningfu written on it. Each stroke is strong and powerful, and there is a faint aura of sharpness, which makes people feel awe.

Zhou Mili looked up at the mansion, with a nervous look on his face, like a poor relative from the countryside, and exclaimed.

"Is this Miss Ning's home? It's so majestic!"

Zhou Mili didn't know that the more luxurious mansion next to Ning Mansion was Zhou Mansion, her future home. She thought that Zhou Jue was extremely poor, and even if there were other mansions, they were just slightly larger houses. The courtyard is just better than the simple old house.

"Squeak!"

The front door of Ning Mansion opened, and a stooped old steward appeared in the sight of the two of them. His face was full of wrinkles, exuding an aura of decay and old age, and his body faintly exuded an edge. He walked to Zhou Jue's door In front of him, he bowed and said very respectfully.

"Master Zhou Jue, you are back!"

Zhou Jue nodded slightly, stretched out his hand to support the old servant of Ning Mansion, and introduced Zhou Mili, who was looking at him.

"This is Grandpa Nalan, the elder who watched me grow up!"

"Hello Grandpa Nalan, I am Zhou Mili, please take good care of me in the future!"

The little girl in black was particularly well-behaved at this time, bowed and clasped her fists, and said respectfully to Nalan Yexing.

"This is Zhou Mili. You can call her Xiaomili. She will be my sister from now on. Please take care of Grandpa Nalan more!"

When Nalan Yexing heard the words, a kind smile appeared on his old face. He looked down at the innocent little girl in black, he was particularly fond of it, and he said quickly.

"Xiaomili is so good, wake up quickly. There are freshly made pastries at home. I will take you to eat them!" Zhou Mili pursed her lips when she heard that there were delicious pastries, and a faint glistening saliva flowed from the corner of her mouth. With bright eyes, he couldn't wait to hold Nalan Yexing's old big hand and said crisply.

"Grandpa Nalan, I love eating sweet pastries!"

"If you like to eat millet grains, then I'll let Fuzhong make them for you every day!"

Nalan Yexing looked at Zhou Mili lovingly. No one would dislike such an innocent and cute little girl who was inexperienced in the world. His heart almost melted.

"Don't even think about eating it every day. Just eat it occasionally. You still have to be more frugal in your life!"

The smile on Zhou Mili's little face was bright, and she was a complete foodie. However, she thought of Zhou Jue's simple old house and poor family background, so she restrained herself and spoke.

"Oh, Xiaomi Li is so sensible!"

Nalan Yexing fell in love with Xiaomili more and more. Such a sensible, well-behaved, innocent and simple girl would melt people's hearts, and she could not resist the charm of Xiaomili.

At this time, a row of heads appeared on the wall on the other side. Seeing Zhou Jue's figure, they jumped off the wall one after another, came to the door of Ning Mansion, stood in a row, and said.

"Zhou Jue, are you back?"

Zhou Jue looked at his somewhat cautious friends, took two steps forward, punched a fat man among them on the chest, and said with a smile.

"Yan Zhuo, Dong Hua Fu, Die Zhang, Chen Sanqiu, what happened? Why have they become so different?!"

Yan Zhuo, Dong Hua Fu, Die Zhang, and Chen Sanqiu are all childhood friends of Zhou Jue and Ning Yao. They are friends who grew up together and are about the same age as Zhou Jue. Because Zhou Jue was precocious since childhood and preferred to hang out with A Liang, he was not as close as Ning Yao to the four of them, but they were also Zhou Jue's few friends in the Great Wall of Sword Qi.

The fat man is called Yan Zhuo, and he is the direct son of the Yan family. The Yan family's position in the Great Wall of Sword Qi is equivalent to the household department of a secular dynasty. Excluding the private channels of the big families, the Yan family is in charge of nearly half of the material operations. To put it simply, the Yan family is rich and wealthy.

Dong Huafu is a dark and capable young man with a face full of scars and a dull expression. He never likes to talk and only likes to drink. The sword has a very pink and red makeup. He has a biological sister with an even weirder name, Dong Bu. She is an innate sword embryo. She looks weak, but when she fights, she is a madman. It is said that one time she became red-eyed and was knocked unconscious by the hidden official Xiao Xun. , dragging him back to the Great Wall of Sword Qi.

Diezhang is a slender woman who carries a big sword to hold the mountain. She also comes from the back alleys of the Great Wall of Swords and has no surname. She was met by A Liang when she was young, and he often asked her to help buy wine. We became familiar with each other, and gradually got to know friends like Ning Yao and others. Now he still owes a lot of alcohol debt because of A Liang.

In the end, Chen Sanqiu was an extremely handsome young man, a well-deserved son of a noble family. He had a crush on Dong Bubu, Dong Huafu's sister, since he was a child, and his infatuation never changed. Chen Sanqiu has a sword hanging on his left and right waist, but one sword has no scabbard. There are two ancient seal characters on the sword, which are the word "cloud pattern". The name of the sheathed sword is "Jingshu".

These four people are all the best among the younger generation of Sword Qi Great Wall. The fat man Yan Zhuo is already a sword cultivator at the Golden Core Realm. The other three are also at the Dragon Gate Realm. It is very impressive to have such a cultivation level at the age of twenty. amazing.

"Xiaomili, these are all my friends. Just call me brother or sister!"

Zhou Mili looked at the four of them curiously, his eyes rolling, and he quickly called someone after hearing this.

"Four brothers, hello sister, my name is Zhou Mili. I used to live in Baoxiang Country's Dumb Lake. You can call me Xiaomili. That's what Zhou Jue usually calls me!"

Yan Zhuo and the others looked at the cute little girl in black with fond smiles on their faces. They were conquered by the charm of this mute lake monster and responded quickly.

"Hello, Xiaomi Li!"

The four of them even took out gifts from their bodies and stuffed them into Zhou Mili's hands, making the little girl in black feel flattered.

What Yan Zhuo gave him was a jade tablet, with a warm texture and a faint glint. The jade tablet was engraved with the word "peace". This is a safe and sound tablet. The jade tablet contains the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which can make people calm down and is of great value. Fei.

Dong Hua Fu presented a talisman with purple electric light flashing on the surface. This was a purple thunder talisman he drew himself. It was extremely powerful and could kill monks in the sea-viewing realm.

Diezhang gave her a small jade sword, which was a trophy she got from killing a demon monk. Xiaomi Li couldn't put it down. It was a flying sword weapon.

Chen Sanqiu gave him a jade bead, with complex patterns appearing on its surface. It was a protective magical weapon.

Zhou Mili looked at the gifts in her hands and looked up at Zhou Jue hesitantly. She didn't know whether she should accept these expensive gifts. The wealth she had accumulated for hundreds of years was not as valuable as these things, which made her feel a little hot.

"Brother, just accept what my sister gave you. You don't have to look at Zhou Jue!"

Yan Zhuo patted Xiao Mili's head, with a particularly endearing smile on his face, glared at Zhou Jue, and said.

Zhou Jue smiled, nodded slightly, and said to the little girl in black.

"It's a free gift, don't give it to me for free! But I will divide it into two pieces later!"

"No, these are all mine!"

Zhou Mili held these gifts tightly in his arms, grinned at Zhou Jue, and then accepted them with confidence.

"Would you guys go in and sit together?"

Zhou Jue glanced at Zhou Mili, already used to her stingy and money-loving nature, then looked at the four of them and asked.

"Next time, we won't bother you as soon as you come back!"

"Xiaomili, remember to play with us in the future!"

The four of them, Yan Zhuo, did not enter Ning Mansion together. In a flash of light, they jumped over the wall on the side again and disappeared.

Zhou Jue saw this and did not stop him. He took the lead and walked towards the Ning Mansion. Behind him, Nalan Yexing held Zhou Mili's little hand and smiled very gently. While chatting with the little girl in black, he thought about what he should give the little girl. What a gift.

Ning Yao was dressed in dark green clothes, with a long green sword with a scabbard on his waist. His long eyebrows were slightly raised, looking more like a narrow knife than a willow leaf. He looked capable and decisive as he looked at his senior brother and Xiaomi Li who were walking towards him. , a trace of astonishment flashed in his big eyes.

"This is Zhou Mili. Just think of her as your sister. This little girl often gets water in her head and can't lift it properly. Just call her Xiaomili."

Zhou Mili looked at the heroic girl, a hint of admiration flashed in his black and white eyes. This girl Ning was so majestic. The charm of the female sword fairy made the little girl in black heart-wrenching.

"Hello, Miss Ning!"

"I am Zhou Mili, the big water monster of Dumb Lake. Zhou Jue always tells me about you. You are really awesome!"

Ning Yao listened to the crisp words of the little girl in black, and a soft smile appeared on his face. He reached out and touched Zhou Mili's little head and said with a smile.

"You can call me Sister Ning from now on, but don't call me Miss Ning!"

Zhou Mili took Zhou Jue's surname, and Ning Yao naturally understood what this meant. Xiao Mili was a family member, not a maid, so he naturally wanted to call her sister.

"Sister Ning!"

Zhou Mili hesitated for a moment, then shouted sweetly, with a bright smile on her face. She felt extremely warm, and she had another family member who loved her.

"Xiaomili, you're so good! Grandpa Nalan, hurry up and bring up the pastries just made in the kitchen, let Xiaomili have a taste!"

Zhou Mili's lips drooled with dissatisfaction, and he looked at Nalan Yexing beside him eagerly. The old man's heart melted when he saw it. He used his movement skills and disappeared in an instant, running towards the kitchen.

"Wow, Grandpa Nalan is so awesome!"

Zhou Mili opened her mouth, revealing some sharp teeth, and looked extremely shocked.

Nalan Yexing could not bear the praise of the little girl in black. He moved three times faster, wanting Zhou Mili to eat the sweet cakes as soon as possible.

Zhou Jue rolled his eyes helplessly when he saw this. Xiao Mili's affinity was really not covered. Nalan Yexing had already fallen. He even had a picture in his mind. A little girl in black walked briskly on the Great Wall of Sword Qi. Countless decisive sword cultivators smiled and greeted her, gave her gifts and snacks, and treated her as a group pet.

"Brother, where have you been this year?"

Ning Yao bent down and held Zhou Mili in his arms, walked into the main hall, and asked after Zhou Jue sat down.

"I walked around this Haoran World and met some people!"

Next, Zhou Jue briefly talked about his experiences in the past year. The girl in black was not interested in this. She was eating the cakes sent by Nalan Yexing with a satisfied look on her face. She felt extremely happy.
