Meow Meow Meow Chapter 177

After waking up the next day, Xiang Qing went to find brother-in-law and despite his protests and objections, gave all of our property and fields to him to rent or sell them. After that, we simply packed up our luggage and bid farewell to everyone. Locked the door, he took me and the Yin Zi couple and we embarked on the road to travel.

For most of our journey, we used fast moving transport of the Hell hound for long distance. Then we used normal mortal transport like carriages or horseback riding to enjoy the scenery and to look at the interesting things we come across on the way, also so we can taste a variety of snacks.

We encountered a bandit's inn boss who conspired with robbers thinking that we were ordinary traders and so they planned to drug and murder us, but we saw through their plot and thought them a harsh lesson and they promised to never do bad things again. We also encountered scammers who wanted to trick us into giving him our money so he'll take us to see nobles. There was also a self-proclaimed emperor of the country who fell in love with my beauty and pursued me, hoping that I will abandon Xiang Qing and go back with him to live a luxurious life. There was also a girl who was bold and beautiful, she fell in love with Xiang Qing and was suffering from lovesickness, she was even willing to be his concubine.

Xiang Qing took me to escape in the middle of the night, Yin Zi and Xiao Cha almost laughed themselves to death the whole way.

The next scenery we went to was the prairie, the scenery was rough and the grasslands seems unending. We could see the cattle grazing and the inside the herdsmen tents when the wind blows. Their faces were dark and rough but most of them were very welcoming and greeted us and welcomed us and offered a large bowl of wine to Xiang Qing and Yin Zi.  When we were leaving, they refused to collect a single penny, saying that the people of the grassland are self-sufficient and do not need money. There is also the arrogant attitude of the grassland, we don't know how the tribe's nobles saw us, their men suddenly showed and aggressively started to bully us, trying to drag us back to be slaves and concubines. This kind of bastard was naturally taught a lesson.

We went to Snow mountains, the mountain was covered with white snow, beautiful as the fairy lands. The lake under the mountains was frozen and reflected the blue sky, shining like a gem, causing Yin Zi to be unable to move a single step.

***(He sees a giant gem, he must be thinking of how to move it to his treasure house LOL)***

There were also some big and beautiful snow lotuses in this uninhabited land. If this plant was placed below the Snow mountain, it would be considered no different from a Chinese cabbage, but here it has an indescribable charm on the snow mountains where few plants exist. The animals were also few were some of the most beautiful I've seen, like the snow leopard, it is was majestic like a deity. Unfortunately, it was bullied by my bad heart...

We went to Jiangnan, where everywhere was a patchwork of waterways. The scenery was simple and not extravagant. The girls there were extremely graceful, they talk like little birds, softly whispering, neatly dressed and their hair was combed up into a neat bun held by silver colored bands. We were riding in a small boat, we also saw many lotus women singing a lyrical poem. "In Jiangnan, you can pick lotuses, how the Tian Tian fish play amongst the lotus leaves. The fish play in the lotus leaves in the east. The fish play in the lotus leaves in the west. The fish play in the lotus leaves in the south. The fish play in the lotus leaves in the north." They were cheerfully picked a huge pile of lotus leaves and lotus seeds. We thought it was interesting and so bought some lotus seeds to take it back and make syrup. But I didn't know that fresh lotus seeds need to be husked and so as a result almost killed everyone.
 

***(Lotus woman refers to beautiful and serene sort of women, fair and fragrant skin, soft and tender body with a face as beautiful as a full moon...you know the classic sort LOL)***

***(To clarify she almost killed them by probably causing them to choke)***

We went to Mobei where the people lived in caves, where there was just little light sipping in, but the caves were very warm. The Mobei men have indomitable spirits, were very bold and drank a lot of wine. The Mobei women don't have eyebrows, and although their faces are not as delicate as the southern women's, their faces show that they are very bold and extremely capable. The best thing is to listen to their folk songs, their voices are loud and clear that they can travel very far and it shows the broad-minded hearts of the people.

The Dunhuang grottos are even more beautiful that one could imagine, I was so startled by Xiao Cha's shriek. I watched the craftsman carefully painting the sky, I was drawn in not by the beauty of the work, but by the extreme detail and meticulousness of it. Xiang Qing suddenly had a childish streak, he was naughty and got a brush and started to draw mischievously, he drew a crappy image that had my cat ears and tail, it seemed to be me. After the others saw it, they laughed and were interrupted by the craftsman, who was angry and kicked us out in one fell swoop. It seems his painting was covered with a large blotch, so he had to redraw his sky painting.

We went to Xiliang's country of daughters, there were many beautiful women but there was not even one man. Suddenly, Xiang Qing in the eyes of the people became a rare and attractive being, to everyone from the royal family down to the commoners. They all regarded him as a rare monster, they wanted to form a queue to view him. Yin Zi dressed as a woman to avoid trouble, and simply put up a booth at the door to sell tickets to make money but was dragged away by me. Moreover, giving Xiang Qing to those women to admire and touch made me very upset, there are even some who come to sneak peeks at my man every day. So, I quickly took everyone and ran away from the country, even the Queen summoned us and I pretended not to know. We heard that there is a river beside the gate that can make people pregnant. Xiao Cha had bad intentions and tried to make Yin Zi drink a mouthful, the result was that she was met with a fierce punishment.

***(The river explains how the population thrives LOL)***

We went to the festival country because Yin Zi wanted to the luminous night pearl of their Jinguang temple and then steal it. It was a pity that it was already stolen first by the Hydra. He regretted repeatedly that he was blocked by the relative of the Dragon King of the East Sea to us. I refused to help, I didn't dare to go and grab it. Xiang Qing was a little taken aback by his persistence and obsession with his pursuit of gems...

Due to the strong insistence of Xiao Cha, who called herself an anime fan, we went overseas to the Japanese country and did not expect the trip to be so disappointing. The people in the island country were extremely poor, their dresses were also short and tattered. The staple food is rice, the simple side dishes of radish and tofu. Even small fish and meat were extremely scarce and only the King can afford it. However, the people here yearn for Central plains culture, once they discovered that our group was from the Great Tang, they showed us great respect and many aristocrats asked us to visit them to teach them some Han poetry with great courtesy and hoped that we will stay here for a long time. But living such a poor life, we really couldn't stand it after a few days and quickly said goodbye and left. In the face of our complaints and dissatisfaction, Xiao Cha started to nag, "This place will be really rich in the future...You can't see it with your eyes at present...And in the future, they will be the oppressors and do a lot of bad things to the inferior central plains. It would be better to act fast and capture this recovering country soon."

***(She is talking about Japan invading China during World War 2)***

Don't be silly. This kind of poor small place, there are even fewer people here. How could it be an enemy of the Central Plains? Moreover, the emperor of the Central Plans refused to go after this poor place, it is too far and troublesome. If it is really acquired, then the Central Plains would have to support it economically going forward. Also, have to send troops to guard it, Losing money! I am afraid the Japanese people will be happy.

Therefore, Xiao Cha's idiotic words, we completely disregarded as usual.

We continued onward, occasionally staying in a beautiful place for a few months, we'll stop and roam around. Unconsciously, three years had already gone by, I felt like time was wheezing by like an arrow, while I was laughing it disappeared. After I really got to know the world, I think I used to be like a frog at the bottom of a well. Just looking at the blue sky above my head, I never knew that the world is so vast. I didn't expect this journey to be so wonderful.

The most important thing is there is Xiang Qing around beside me, my feeling of contentment is unending. We must continue together, the two of us together will travel together until we have seen the beauty of the whole world and appreciated all the cultures.

Living like this is really happy.

Occasionally, I go to Heaven to see Xiao Mao and stay for a few days and tell him about my experiences and the beautiful places. He said the both of us have been on our honeymoon for a few years, and he was very discontented that we were traveling without him and asked if he can join us after his graduation.

Of course, I agreed to this request, as long as he tries hard to successfully complete his studies first.

When I went to Heaven again after four years of fun, I received bad news from Molin's mouth.

 Bull Devil has been subdued by the Heavens.
