Chapter 2 Tasks

Lan Xiaoman finally woke up. When he got up, he saw that the sun had just risen. Should he continue doing his job today, or should he wait for the "summoning" of the mysterious woman?

Suddenly he looked out the window with his eyes wide open. He was stunned for a while and said to himself: "That's not right! When did the sun rise from the west?"

When he walked to the window and looked carefully, he realized that the sun did not rise from the west, but set from the west. Unknowingly, after sleeping here for so long, it seemed that the presidential suite was really comfortable.

, this was the first time in half a year that he slept so peacefully.

"I'm looking at the moon in the distance..." The cell phone ringing on the bedside rang. This was the new iPhone 10 I bought yesterday, which cost 8,000 yuan.

"Hello, hello, who are you?" Lan Xiaoman picked up the phone and asked.

"It's me, why do noble people forget things so much?"

"Oh, ah? You...how did you know my new number?" Lan Xiao broke out in cold sweat, "This is the new number I just bought yesterday?"

"Tch, how can this little thing frustrate us? Didn't you leave your number at the hotel front desk?"

"You...you're following me?"

"No, I'm at the front desk now. Come down quickly. You can really sleep." The other party hung up the phone.

Lan Xiaoman hurriedly got up and washed up. He couldn't wear the old clothes anymore. Fortunately, he asked the beautiful waiter to buy a set of coats for him last night.

By the time he finished everything, ten minutes had passed.

At this time, the phone rang again, and the other party began to urge me.

Lan Xiaoman came to the front desk with an uneasy mood. He wanted to see if the woman with a sweet voice on the phone was a beauty or a Tyrannosaurus rex.

He saw a tall girl with deep eyes and a tall nose standing in front of him, struggling to drag two large luggage and looking at him expectantly.

Even though her face is full of fatigue and work, you can still see her petite face and delicate facial features, which are as strange and eye-catching as a mixed-race child; her delicate and fair skin, like goat milk curd, is like a transparent crystal-colored Xinjiang horse.

It was like a milk raisin, so crystal clear that people couldn't bear to look at it any longer, for fear that their gaze would make two holes in her face.

"Hello, are you Mr. Lan Xiaoman?" The girl came over and asked.

"Yes, who are you?"

"I'm here to pick you up."

"Oh, so you're not the one who called?"

"No. She is waiting in the car outside. Come on, let's go."

"Um."

Lan Xiaoman followed her out involuntarily.

I saw two Audis parked outside the door. The girl took Lan Xiaoman and sat in the back one. It seemed that the woman who made the phone call must be sitting in the front one.

More than ten minutes later, a European-style villa came into view. If you look closely, it is made of overlapping wooden boards. The pointed roof and crimson roof tiles are particularly eye-catching under the sunlight.

There is a special security guard on duty at the gate. Dense and lush bamboos stand in two rows at random along the path. The green bamboo leaves gradually surround the top, forming a dome-shaped "roof", thus blocking out the winter sunshine.

Outside, no matter where you go in the park, you can never clearly see the landscape 10 meters in front of the road. The tall green bamboo forest hides the entire park. There are pathways in the twists and turns, and the pathways are full of bamboo trees.

.

The car stopped in front of the villa gate.

"Mr. Lan is here, please get out of the car!" Lan Xiaoman followed the woman into the villa.

The interior is elegant, exquisite and comfortable. The porch and foyer stretch to the north and south. The living room and bedrooms are equipped with low windows and hexagonal bay windows. The restaurant connects to the north and south, blending the indoor and outdoor scenes.

It inherits the essence of traditional Chinese architecture and maintains the unique artistic style of traditional architecture that integrates elegance, simplicity and magnificence. Taking nature as a refuge, it advocates Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism, implicit beauty, and esoteric elegance.

"The place is nice." Lan Xiaoman asked, "Can I meet your boss now?"

"Okay, I'll take you there right now. She's waiting for you in the living room."

She is also a beauty, but the most profound impression on this girl is that there is an astonishing beauty between her eyebrows that transcends her age. Her pale willow eyebrows have been carefully modified, and her long eyelashes flicker like two small brushes.

, a pair of big, heart-stoppingly beautiful eyes that are so bright that it makes people feel dazzling, and they are unusually smart and lively.

"Hello, are you Lan Xiaoman?" The girl stood up and shook hands with Lan Xiaoman, "I am the one who called you."

"I know." Lan Xiaoman replied confidently.

"Have we met?" The woman was a little surprised.

"Of course we haven't met before, but your voice hasn't changed."

The woman laughed and said, "Mr. Lan is really good at joking."

"Tell me, what do you want me to do? But..." Lan Xiaoman deliberately delayed, "We have agreed that I will never do anything criminal."

"How should I put it?" the woman pondered for a moment and then replied, "This matter is really a bit complicated to talk about. Don't worry, I won't ask you to commit a crime."

The woman stood up, walked to the window, looked out the window, and remained silent.

It seems like she is really in some big trouble? Lan Xiaoman thought.

"I remember when you called me last time, you seemed to mention an online game called "Shenwu". Is it related to it?" Lan Xiaoman broke the silence.

"You can say that, but not exactly." The woman replied, "Actually, I am the king of the daughter country."

"What? Did I hear that right? Even though I have little education, I still know the countries in the world very well. It seems that there is no country called the daughter country?" Lan Xiao's face was full of surprise.

"I'm talking about the Western Liang Women's Kingdom."

"The female kingdom of Xiliang in "Journey to the West"?"

"Yes."

"Wait a minute," Lan Xiaoman shook his head vigorously, "I...didn't I hear it wrong?"

"You heard me right."

The woman turned around and sat in front of Lan Xiaoman. Lan Xiaoman looked at her carefully, looking more and more like a queen.

"Then... Oops, my thoughts are a bit confused. I've only seen modern people travel to ancient times, but I don't seem to have found any ancient people traveling to modern times." Lan Xiaoman frowned.

"I traveled through time and space and came here." The woman said, "Not only did I come here, but also..."

"What else?" Lan Xiaoman asked hurriedly.

"And those monsters also traveled here."

"You...what did you say? I don't believe it." Lan Xiaoman shook his head.

"Do you still remember the pipa spirit in "Journey to the West"?"

"Remember, what's wrong?"

"She is a scorpion the size of a lute, and she has been practicing for many years. She uses a three-pronged steel fork, breathes fire from her nose, and blows smoke from her mouth. She is very powerful. She uses magic to sweep away my imperial brother. She wants to have a happy marriage, and

He repeatedly defeated Sun Wukong and Bajie. Finally, Sun Wukong went to heaven and moved the Pleiades Star Official from the Palace of Light. The star official waited for Sun Wukong to lure the goblin, and turned into a six or seven-foot-tall rooster with double crests. With a crow, the goblin appeared.

Original form."

"Wasn't she taken away?"

"Yes, but when the Pleiades star official saw that she was pitiful and repentant, he let her go. As soon as she returned to her cave, she began to take revenge. She cast a spell to trap my country and freeze it.

time, and brought me into modern society."

"Why would she bring you to modern society?"

"She didn't dare to kill me there, for fear that Heaven would find out and take her life."

"Oh." Lan Xiaoman thought thoughtfully, suddenly understood something, and said, "Isn't she also here?"

"You're right, she's here too."

"Here...I think I'd better not wade into this muddy water. Your Majesty, I'd better leave. I don't dare to help you with this. That scorpion spirit has magic, how can I beat her?"

After Lan Xiaoman finished speaking, he wanted to slip out.

"Wait," the queen stopped him, "you don't have to be afraid, her spells have no effect in modern society. They only work in my time and space. Here she is just a mortal."

"Hi," Lan Xiaoman finally breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought you were going to hire me to kill the scorpion spirit."

"I must return to my country now, otherwise my people will die over time."

"Oh, I understand, you want me to take you back to another time and space."

"Yes."

"But I'm not the Jade Emperor. I don't have magic, so how can I help you?" Lan Xiaoman said.

"We found a space-time passage."

"Um?"

"It's the Internet."

"Are you kidding yourself? Can the Internet take you back?"

"I'm not kidding. My people found a game that can do this, which is "Shenwu". However, this news was also known by Pipa Jing. She tried every means to trap us and planted many traps in this game.

, and also controlled the demons and some fairy scum inside."

Lan Xiaoman stopped talking. He stared blankly at the woman in front of him who claimed to be the Queen of Xiliang, with a dubious look on his face.

"Although we know that there is such a passage, we still lack a guide. My men went through layers of screening, and finally they decided that you are the most suitable."

"Am I the most suitable? I'm...a bastard, how can I...how can I take on any important responsibilities, let alone save your country?"

"You can do it. After sending us back, you can come back. Then I will give you a handsome reward, enough to last you ten lifetimes."

"Let me go back and think about it."

"Okay, but you have to be careful. The Pipa Spirit seems to know that I live here. She will send people to keep an eye on everyone who comes in and out of here."

"Yeah." Lan Xiaoman dragged his heavy steps back to the presidential suite, feeling very confused.

"Let's take a shower and get some sleep." Lan Xiaoman thought and went to the bathroom.

After Lan Xiaoman finished his work, he felt really hungry. Standing beside the bed, he suddenly felt stars appearing in front of his eyes. He also felt top-heavy, which showed that he was really hungry. It seemed that he would really set an alarm next time, otherwise

The headline in a certain gossip newspaper was that a certain man who lived in the presidential suite was overworked and died of starvation. If that were the case, it would be better to die of excessive debauchery! (To be continued)
