Chapter 18 Tomorrow is just a little maid

  Then, Guo Yuan looked around like a monkey, giving Guo Jia the feeling of being in Journey to the West.

  Indeed, driven by "great benefits", people always have motivation. There is no difficult task in the world, only those who are willing to put in effort, as long as one works hard and sincerely, things often get done easily.

  Before long, Guo saw Aiding excitedly pointing and shouting at one side.

  "Look, big brother, there's smoke over there, someone must be cooking!"

  In an instant, this guy turned from Sun Wukong to Zhu Bajie, although Guo Jia was too weak to mock Guo Yuan's three sentences that never left eating, but had to admire, this guy's eyes were really useful.

  It's getting dark, the light is not good, and that place is quite far away, in a rather remote location. How did Guo Yan manage to find his target? Is it true that myopia didn't exist in ancient times?

  "Good job!" Guo Jia praised, looking at Guo Yuan's scratching motion, and without hesitation, waved his hand, "Advance!"

  However, Xiaoyao hurriedly said beside him,

  "Master, that place looks quite far away and also completely deviates from the official road. Let's not bother to go out of our way to get there!"

  Indeed, today's place is not like yesterday's, it's not close to the official road, but rather far away. If there wasn't smoke, ordinary people would absolutely not go in that direction, it really looks like a secluded place, and might even be a hideout for some mountain bandits.

  So, out of caution, he couldn't help but remind Guo Jia tomorrow.

  However, Guo Jia, although not born with a big heart, can be said to be fearless like a newborn calf facing a tiger.

  "We're not in a hurry to get to Luoyang, so what's the harm in taking a detour? Not only is it more comfortable to eat and live, but it's also much safer than camping outdoors." said Guo Jia.

  "What if there are mountain bandits on the other side?" Ming continued to ask.

  "It can't be, look at that smoke, it's so thin, at most it's just one household. If they were really mountain bandits, wouldn't they be afraid of being discovered by the government soldiers if they dared to light a fire and cook openly?" What Guo Jia said was indeed reasonable, no matter what he says tomorrow, he must have planned to go for a walk in the morning!

  "That's right, even if they're bandits, we don't have to be afraid. I can chase them away and then snatch their meat to eat!" Guo Yuan also patted his chest on the side and said, very much in agreement with Guo Jia's opinion.

  "Hey, A'zi, that's more like it!" Guo Jia chuckled and patted Guo Yuan on the shoulder. This guy finally said something that fit his character.

  Guo Yuan smiled and said with a thick face, without taking any credit for himself:

  "That's all thanks to the great master's teachings."

  Kuo Chia's eyes twitched, when did I ever give you something like this? This is simply humiliating!

  Forget it, looks like this kid's education is still not thorough enough.

  Seeing Guo Jia still looking unwilling tomorrow, he couldn't help but say,

  "Let's be democratic then, you look like I'm being dictatorial or something."

  "What is democracy?" Ming Er asked aloud.

  "Democracy is the minority obeying the majority!" Guo Jia replied.

  Tomorrow, looking at Guo Yuan counting on his fingers next to him, he directly buried his head and didn't speak again.

  She was just a little maid tomorrow, with low status and soft words.

  ······

  There is a phenomenon called mirage, and there is a scenery called vast desert with a lonely smoke.

  Towards the smoke that seemed not too far away, Guo Jia and his two companions walked for a whole hour, until the sky was completely dark and nothing could be seen. It wasn't until they relied on the moonlight that they finally reached their destination.

  It's okay, because there are people coming and going, so a road that is not too big or too small has been formed here. If not, Guo Jia and the other two would not necessarily be able to find their way without any signs.

  However, Guo Jia also suffered a lot despite this.

  For a moment, Guo Jia couldn't help but bitterly smile in his heart, is this the stubbornness of a liberal arts student?

  It seems that some common sense should be understood. If I had known it was so far, Guo Jia wouldn't have gone to so much trouble to come here.

  Of course, it's absolutely impossible for Guo Jia to say such things directly now. Otherwise, how could he still have the face to meet the little girl in his arms? So, even if it's wrong, Guo Jia will stick to it till the end.

  "Cough, according to my initial observation of that smoke and calculation of the entire distance route, plus our marching speed, it's about time we arrive at our destination." Guo Jia suddenly spoke up from horseback.

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, before they had gone two steps, Guo Yuan discovered a residential house.

  "Awesome! It's really here!" Guo exclaimed excitedly. Fortunately, he wasn't good with words, or else he would have said something like "My admiration for you is as boundless as the Yangtze River".

  Moreover, at this time, it was not only Guo Yuan, but also the little loli in his arms, Ming'er, who looked up at Guo Jia. In the dark of night, her eyes sparkled as if she had just realized for the first time that her family's young master was actually so formidable! Not only was he intelligent and resourceful, but now it seemed that he was also quite skilled in arithmetic.

  Although she didn't say a word tomorrow, but looking at her curious expression, it was clear that she was asking "Young Master, how did you do it?"

  Guo Jia smiled and reached out to touch Ming Er's little head.

  "When you grow up later, you will be like me."

  This remark, Guo Jia said it out loud without even blushing. Ming'er slightly pouted her mouth, if Guo Jia didn't tell her, she wouldn't have believed that when she grew up, she would be the same too, could this thing be learned by itself?!

  Well, it's really true that you'll get used to this thing when you grow up!

  The principle is simple - stand high and look far.

  Guo Jia sat on his horse, in the midst of a desolate forest, and from afar he could already see the house early on. As for Ming Er, although also sitting on a horse, unfortunately being too small, he could only reach Guo Jia's chest level; as for Guo Yuan, who was tall and sturdy, but could only walk on the ground, his visible height was naturally even more limited.

  So, what Guo Jia just said was absolutely not nonsense. However, the fact that he can say such "big truths" without blushing is truly admirable.

  "Woof! Woof woof woof!"

  Kuo Chia and his two companions' arrival suddenly caused a commotion on the other side, and the first to discover the problem was naturally the little yellow dog guarding the house.

  "Another dog!" cried Guo Jia and Guo Yu in unison.

  Of course, Guo Jia was absolutely shocked, and as for Guo Yuan, it seemed like someone was gasping for air when he heard the news.

  Then without waiting for Guo Jia's orders, Guo Huai directly rushed out, with a clear intention to kill.

  Seeing this, Guo Jia hastily shouted:

  "Halt!"

  If Guo Yuan really did that without saying a word, rushing up and killing someone else's dog, then that would be robbery. As for yesterday? The situation was special, that was "self-defense".

  "Big brother, meat, meat!" Although Guo Yuan said so with his mouth, he still stopped obediently.

  Guo Jia's mouth twitched, and he said, "Well, since we used meat to lure this kid over here in the first place, it wouldn't be right to go back on our word now."

  "What's the point of doing it yourself? What kind of situation is this?"

  "The big shot is right, the big shot is right, let them kill each other, they invited us."
