Chapter 1327 Returning After One Year, Shi Yi Speaks

"Teacher, father."

Jian Shiyi tried shouting several times in succession, but he actually made a sound. Although it was intermittent, he did say something.

When Zhou Chen left more than a year ago, she said she wanted to be called Master when she came back, so she has been working hard for more than a year.

She was not able to speak out today, but she was able to speak out several times in a row today. This was the first time since she became speechless.

While she was practicing her voice, the voice of maid Cheng Xi suddenly sounded from downstairs.

"Girl, His Highness is back."

When Shiyi heard this, his expression changed instantly. He dropped the letter in his hand, picked up the hem of his skirt, and ran downstairs. When he was going down the stairs, he didn't pay attention and almost fell, which scared Cheng Xi. He jumped greatly and rushed forward to help Yu Shiyi in a panic.

But Shiyi didn't feel any pain at all. He waved his hand to Cheng Xi, then ran away from the library again and headed straight to the front yard.

After running out of the courtyard and asking the guards, she found out that Zhou Chen had just entered the palace and was in the front hall, so she hurried to the front hall again.

When she ran to the front hall, she saw her master and a group of senior brothers and sisters staying in the hall. She slowed down, took a breath, calmed her rapidly beating heart, and walked into the hall with a happy face.

The arrival of Jian Shiyi naturally attracted the attention of everyone in the hall, and the senior sisters and brothers with whom he was close also showed doting expressions.

"Little junior sister, you have grown a lot taller."

When Hong Xiaoyu saw Yu Shiyi, he couldn't help but said happily.

Ji Shiyi saluted everyone very politely, smiled at Hong Xiaoyu and other senior sisters and brothers, and then looked at Zhou Chen with burning eyes.

Seeing that Zhou Chen was safe and sound and as graceful as before he left, her hanging heart was completely relieved.

"Teacher. Teacher."

She tried hard to call out the word "master", but she didn't know whether it was because she was too anxious or she hadn't recovered yet, but she couldn't call out the word "master" in succession.

Zhou Chen saw that Shiyi was eager to speak, and knew that she must still remember what he said when she left, so he smiled gently.

"Eleven, it doesn't matter if you can't tell. We are not in a hurry. We will take our time."

Jian Shiyi was very depressed and angry with himself. He felt that he was so useless. He finally saw his master, but he still couldn't scream.

Everyone saw Miao Shiyi's anxiety and spoke to comfort him. Senior sister Hong Xiaoyu even said with a smile: "Little junior sister, when you come back this time, master has specially brought you a gift."

Hearing that there was a gift, Yu Shiyi immediately looked at Zhou Chen curiously, his eyes full of questions.

Zhou Chen said with a smile: "This year, we couldn't come back to celebrate your birthday with you, so we specially chose a birthday gift for you. Let's go and take you to see it."

As soon as he moved, everyone else immediately followed him. Yang Shiyi followed Zhou Chen closely, closer than the others, for fear that Zhou Chen would suddenly leave again.

He led everyone to the stable behind the palace. This is where the palace raises horses. There are dozens of horses.

After walking to one of the places and standing there, Zhou Chen pointed at a white horse that was kept alone in a horse pen.

"Eleven, it's this little white horse. Do you like it?"

Nao Shiyi's eyes widened when he saw the little white horse in front of him, which was completely white and could not see other variegated colors.

'What a beautiful pony. ’

Hong Xiaoyu talked about the origin of this little white horse: "Junior sister, this little white horse was discovered by Master when it was a foal. Master said that you must like this little white horse very much, so we have been raising it just for you. I’ll give it to you. Although this horse is not yet mature, you should have no problem riding it.”

Yan Shiyi really liked this little white horse, especially because it was specially prepared for her by her master.

‘Thank you Master, I like it very much. ’

Zhou Chen said softly: "Its name is Bailong."

Yan Shiyi's eyes lit up and he gestured to Zhou Chen: 'Is it the white dragon horse in Journey to the West? ’

Zhou Chen responded with a smile: "Yes, it's the white dragon horse in Journey to the West. Have you finished reading Journey to the West?"

"Uh-huh."

Jian Shiyi nodded repeatedly. Journey to the West was a birthday gift from her master. She read it carefully from beginning to end, and is now reading it for the second time.

"When I have time, I will teach you how to ride a horse."

Ji Shiyi readily agreed. In the past, she had always ridden in a carriage and had never ridden a horse by herself. The most important thing was that Zhou Chen taught her, which was what made her happiest.

For more than a year, what she missed most was the time when Zhou Chen taught her in the palace. Now that Zhou Chen is back, she can resume such happy days again.

Zhou Chen rested during the two days he came back. He had been away for more than a year. Although he was not fighting all the time, he was still very nervous. He needed to make some adjustments after returning.

In the past two days, Shi Yi came to see Zhou Chen every day, but he didn't disturb him too much. He just gave him some food and drink and showed his concern.

The rest of the time was spent running to the horse pen to see the little white dragon horse that Zhou Chen gave her. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it.

On the third day after returning, Zhou Chen began to teach Shi Yi how to ride. Because Bai Long had been trained by Zhou Chen to be very docile, after a few days, Shi Yi dared to ride a horse by himself, but he only rode slowly and did not dare to ride. Ride fast and run.

In the study, Zhou Chen took the tea cup handed by Shi Yi and took a sip.

"After reading Journey to the West, what do you think?"

'It looks good, Shi Yi likes it very much. ’

"Then which character in Journey to the West is your favorite?"

Jian Shiyi thought for a while and gave the answer.

‘The Monkey King. ’

"Sun Wukong."

Jian Shiyi waved his hand: "No, it's the Monkey King, not the Monkey King behind him." ’

Zhou Chen suddenly became interested: "Sun Wukong before learning the scriptures, why?"

Nao Shiyi looked thoughtful. She liked the Monkey King because of his courage and rebelliousness, as well as the monkey head that broke the worldly rules and never backed down.

As for the Sun Wukong who learned the scriptures later, and the Sun Wukong who became a Buddha, although they were also very good, she felt that the Sun Wukong before he learned the scriptures was more attractive to her.

Because she felt that Sun Wukong, who was studying for Buddhist scriptures, had lost his previous arrogance and seemed to have been tamed, much like her, so she didn't like him very much.

But she couldn't tell Zhou Chen this, so she smiled and said she just liked it.

Even if she didn't say it, Zhou Chen could understand what she was thinking.

Many people who have watched Journey to the West will like the early Monkey King, Monkey King, because they can see what they desire in Monkey King, while the Monkey King in the later period is more like a compromise, a kind of reality. The compromise of defeat is the same as that of the general public.

Zhou Tianxing suddenly walked into the study.

"Master, the third junior brother and the fourth junior sister are back. They have something to report to you. They are currently in the military camp outside the city."

Zhou Chen said: "I understand. Get ready. We are going to the military camp now. Eleven, do you want to go with us?"

Ji Shiyi nodded immediately.

"Okay, then you come with us, let's go."

The group of people soon arrived at the military camp. When Xie Yun and Feng Qiao saw Shi Yi, they happily chatted for a few words and then reported the situation to Zhou Chen.

"Master, when we came back from the west, we met a group of monks who came from Zhongli."

Zhou Chen knew as soon as he heard that the plot was happening normally, and Xiao Yan, the second prince of Nan Xiao, had already arrived.

Having read the original work, he still has a good impression of the second prince of Nan Xiao, because in the plot he has been standing by Zhou Shengchen since he met Zhou Shengchen. In the end, Zhou Shengchen's bones can be recovered. It's all due to him.

This second prince of Nan Xiao is definitely a helper who values ​​affection and righteousness and is worthy of close friendship.

Xie Yun and Feng Qiao told Zhou Chen the whole story, and Zhou Chen took advantage of the situation and told them to go to Jialan Temple, so a group of people went to Jialan Temple.

Jialan Temple is in Xizhou City, so they arrived at their destination quickly. Zhou Chen asked the rest of the soldiers to wait outside the temple. He took Shi Yi, Xie Yun and Feng Qiao into the temple.

Before going in, he glanced at Shi Yi. He originally thought that Shi Yi would be able to speak earlier, but he didn't expect that it would still be delayed until today. It seems that he will still transform into the Shadow Emperor today.

Zhou Chen's identity was there. As soon as he entered the temple, the abbot of Jialan Temple came to see him with the abbot who had escaped from Nanxiao. Zhou Chen also talked to them politely.

He doesn't have a great fondness for Buddhism, but he doesn't have any bad feelings either.

It is undeniable that in many film and television novels, Buddhism is often portrayed as the villain, and there are indeed many monks who behave badly.

But I have to admit that there are still many real Buddhist masters. At least this abbot from the south can take so many refugees to escape to Xizhou City. Regardless of whether he has any ideas of his own, at least he does what he does. Things are good.

Zhou Chen has always had a kind heart towards Buddhist monks who are truly compassionate.

Asking Xie Yun to escort the refugees to Xizhou City, Zhou Chen chatted with the abbot of Nan Xiaolai and remembered the Qinglong Temple in the plot, so he casually stated that he was willing to help them build a temple, which made the abbot burst into tears.

A young novice monk came over and said he wanted to ordain his disciple, so the abbot apologized and left to go and ordain his disciple.

"Eleven, I just promised to help them build a new temple. I'll leave it to you to think of the name of the new temple."

'I? ’

Jian Shiyi pointed at himself in surprise, but when he saw Zhou Chen's encouraging eyes, he smiled and agreed.

Zhou Chen knew that the person receiving the tonsure was Xiao Yan, the second prince of Nan Xiao, so he walked over with Yu Shiyi.

When he walked into the main hall, he saw Xiao Yan who was being ordained. Zhou Chen stood calmly and watched him being ordained.

Xiao Yan also saw Zhou Chen. Seeing that Zhou Chen was motionless, he naturally didn't speak first. He clasped his hands together and closed his eyes.

The shave is done quickly.

"Master, I want to say a few words to him, is that okay?"

The young novice wanted to stop him, but the abbot stopped him and respectfully replied: "Your Highness, please." After saying that, he took the young novice and left.

There were only three people left in the main hall, and Zhou Chen said: "We haven't seen each other for several years. I left the majestic prince alone and went to Xizhou City to become a monk. How leisurely and elegant it is."

Xiao Yan clasped his hands together and smiled.

"It's been a long time, Your Highness. Things in the world are unpredictable. I didn't expect to see Your Highness again in this situation."

Jian Shiyi carefully pulled Zhou Chen's clothes, his eyes full of questions.

Zhou Chen smiled and explained: "This is the second prince of Nan Xiao. We have met several times before."

Jian Shiyi looked surprised. It seemed strange that the second prince Nan Xiao came here to become a monk.

Xiao Yan glanced at Miao Shiyi curiously, and then faced Zhou Chen: "Your Highness recognized me, but was indifferent. Aren't you afraid that I came with a purpose?"

"To be honest, I'm not afraid. First, I have confidence in myself. Second, although we have only met a few times, I still admire you very much and have heard some rumors about you. If there hadn't been a big change, you wouldn't have appeared here."

"Amitabha, Your Highness is still as elegant as ever, which makes me admire you. However, Your Highness, you have to be careful."

As soon as he finished speaking, several refugees wearing coarse linen clothes suddenly rushed in from outside the hall.

Seeing them appear, Zhou Chen's expression did not change, but he protected Shi Yi behind him.

"Are these your people or the Emperor Nanxiao's people?"

Xiao Yan sighed: "I have decided to become a monk and give up my identity as the Prince of Nanxiao, so why would I bring people here?"

Then he stood up, turned his head and said to them: "You go back, I have made up my mind and will not go back with you."

But these people all knelt down and replied: "We will never leave Your Highness even if we die."

Zhou Chen said: "It seems that they are quite loyal to you."

Xiao Yan chanted a Buddhist name: "I have become a monk and no longer need guards. This is Xizhou City. If you don't leave now, you won't be able to leave."

But these people suddenly looked at Zhou Chen and Shiyi with fierce eyes, but before they wanted to do anything, Xiao Yan spoke again.

"I advise you not to attack them, otherwise you will only die."

But these guards not only want to protect him, but also follow the orders of Emperor Nanxiao to take him back to Nanxiao, so of course they can't give up. If they can capture the little King Nanchen, they will have the right to speak.

Thinking of this, they could no longer hold back, and stood up at the same time, rushing towards Zhou Chen and Xi Shiyi.

Zhou Chen whispered: "Eleven, step back."

As he said that, he went to meet the people who rushed over, and exchanged fists and feet with them, and started fighting.

After a few quick fights, Zhou Chen determined their level. Their strength and fists were not bad, but that was compared to ordinary people. In the eyes of him who had already trained his internal strength, they were just little Karami.

However, in order to let Xi Shiyi speak, they had to act in full.

Seeing that Zhou Chen was too powerful to be defeated, one of them suddenly turned his eyes and actually aimed at Xi Shiyi in the hall, and rushed towards Xi Shiyi, wanting to attack Xi Shiyi.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Yan clenched his fists and was ready to attack, but Zhou Chen's action was faster than him.

Originally, he wanted to use these people to provoke Shi Yi to talk, but who would have thought that they actually wanted to attack Shi Yi, which touched his reverse scale.

He turned around suddenly, his speed increased dramatically, and took the initiative to grab the shoulder of the man who attacked Shi Yi, and pulled him hard, throwing him out of the hall directly, and smashed him heavily on the ground, spraying blood.

The other few people saw that they knew that the trick was difficult, so they did not hold back, and at the same time drew the sword hidden in their waists and attacked Zhou Chen again.

Zhou Chen deliberately controlled them and moved them from the hall to the outside of the hall, and continued to fight with them, but he did not take them all down, but deliberately exposed flaws, giving people a visual effect of danger.

Looking at Zhou Chen in the fight, Shi Yi's face was full of tension, and his hands were tangled together, and his fingertips were clenched white.

Xiao Yan, who was standing by, frowned. He was also a martial arts expert, proficient in fists, kicks, swords and knives. His eyesight was much better than that of Shi Yi, so he was confused.

Logically speaking, with the level of the little Nanchen King, it was impossible for him to fight so dangerously. He just beat someone to vomit blood, but now he beat him like this. It looked fake.

But Shi Yi didn't know this. She only knew that her master was besieged and the enemy used swords. She was almost stabbed by the sword several times. She was so anxious that her heart was about to jump out.

Suddenly, a long sword stabbed from behind Zhou Chen. Zhou Chen "seemed" to be unaware. Seeing that it was about to stab Zhou Chen, Shi Yi couldn't help it anymore and blurted out.

"Master, be careful behind."

Hearing Shi Yi finally speak, Zhou Chen was immediately happy and stopped acting. He dodged the sword behind him and kicked out.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

It took only a few breaths, and the few people who had just fought fiercely with Zhou Chen had all fallen to the ground, and it was difficult for them to stand up.

"Master."

After the battle, Shiyi couldn't help it anymore, and rushed to Zhou Chen, looking around, and was relieved to see that there were no wounds on Zhou Chen's body.

Xiao Yan looked at this scene with a strange expression, speechless in his heart, could it be more fake?

Although he didn't know why Zhou Chen had to act so flustered just now, he was sure that it was related to Shiyi.
