Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 296 Wu Tuo Mysteriously Acquires the Jade Man

Chu Chen followed the two maids toward the side of the main hall and stopped in front of a small palace.

Upon entering the palace, one could see Xiaoyu, dressed in her finest attire, eagerly awaiting arrival.

Suddenly being washed clean and dressed in silk and satin—clothes she had never dared to dream of in her entire life—Xiaoyu felt a sense of unreality.

Moreover, everything in the palace made her feel very constrained.

Finally, Chu Chen arrived.

She immediately ran towards Chu Chen and walked straight up to him.

"Young master, you're finally back. You must be tired. Let me bathe and dress you."

Chu Chen looked at Xiao Yu, who was a refreshing sight to him, and went up to pat her head.

"No need for that. You just need to serve me tea and water. You can handle everything else yourself."

After speaking, they were led by several people to a room with an enormous bathtub.

The bathtub was already filled with hot water. Chu Chen waved everyone away, stripped himself naked, and jumped into the bathtub.

Seeing Chu Chen kick them all out, a look of dejection crept onto Xiaoyu's face.

She couldn't help but think to herself that she was just a country girl who had been saved by the young master.

Since the young master doesn't like it, then don't be delusional. Being able to stay by his side and serve him is enough.

Chu Chen hadn't thought that far ahead. After all, there were too many strange weapons hidden under his clothes, and it was best to keep them out of sight if possible.

After all, the world was becoming increasingly mysterious to him.

The person who could control wild beasts, and the mysterious person who needed jade essence—all of these things made Chu Chen feel uneasy.

After taking a relaxing bath, Chu Chen flashed into the space.

He needed to quickly improve his strength, and in addition, he also needed to reorganize his firearms once again.

The most powerful weapon I currently possess is probably the grenade launcher.

There are no more large-scale firearms.

Given the current trajectory, who knows what kind of powerful person might emerge?

If there were a super expert who could withstand a grenade launcher, then I would be in danger.

After drinking half a bucket of spring water in the space, Chu Chen went to the equipment warehouse and the two rooms containing the captured supplies.

After searching for a long time, Chu Chen shook his head and returned to his room.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, as long as this space doesn't expand, these will remain the only things that allow me to make a living for now.

After getting dressed, Chu Chen pushed open the door to the room.

Upon seeing this, Xiaoyu immediately came forward: "Young master, you're all washed up, please go and have your meal!"

"Oh, you've been waiting here at the door the whole time?"

"I was afraid that you might suddenly need something, so I am waiting here to serve you."

Chu Chen smiled gently: "You've worked hard. Go to bed early tonight. You haven't had a proper rest all day!"

"This servant is not tired. As long as you need me, I will always have the strength!"

Chu Chen's lips twitched after hearing this; something just didn't feel right no matter how he thought about it.

However, he didn't say anything more, but followed the two maids to a room where they would have a meal.

Looking at the table full of dishes, Chu Chen picked up a bite and stuffed it into his mouth, then spat it out immediately.

"Is this a dessert?" Chu Chen looked at the maid behind him with some confusion.

The two maids immediately put on a terrified expression and said, "Young master, my Wu Tuo specializes in sweets! If they don't suit your taste, please forgive us."

Chu Chen waved his hand at them: "It's not your fault, it's just that I'm not used to getting to know this place."

After saying that, Chu Chen looked at the table full of red and green things and immediately lost interest.

"You guys eat, don't worry about me."

After saying that, he walked into the kitchen that was provided in the house.

Several maids were frantic when they saw Chu Chen enter the kitchen, and they ran after him.

Chu Chen turned to look at the two of them.

Thinking that if someone cooked for them every day and they didn't eat any of it, Yan Lixuan would probably blame them, which would be an unnecessary disaster.

So he said, "From now on, after you two bring the food over, you'll eat by yourselves, understand?"

"Ah, this is the young master's food, shall we?"

"Stop talking nonsense. Just eat what I tell you to eat, and then say that I ate it. That way you'll be spared punishment, and I won't have to eat that cloyingly sweet stuff."

After Chu Chen spoke to them at length, the two maids immediately understood his intention, nodded, and turned to head towards the dining table.

Chu Chen went into the kitchen and had Xiao Yu light a fire. Soon, a large bowl of noodles was cooked.

Then he grabbed a big bowl, picked up a portion of the contents, and started gulping it down.

Seeing Chu Chen enjoying his meal, Xiao Yu smiled and kept adding noodles to his bowl.

For the next three days, Chu Chen basically didn't leave the house.

Two maids would bring him food every day, and he would eat by himself. Then Chu Chen would try to cook different kinds of meals for him.

Although Xiaoyu and the two maids were puzzled as to why the young master could pull out so many things from his strange bag, none of them dared to ask.

On the third day, after breakfast, Cao Gonggong's hoarse voice came from the doorway.

"Young Master Chu, have you finished eating? The King invites you!"

Chu Chen slurped the last noodle in the bowl, wiped his mouth, and walked towards the door.

"Chu Chen greets Eunuch Cao, good morning!"

Looking at Chu Chen, who seemed relaxed and at ease, Eunuch Cao immediately said, "Thanks to Young Master Chu, very good!"

Okay, that's not how you greet people in ancient times!

After saying that, he followed Eunuch Cao toward Yan Lixuan's palace.

Inside the palace, only Yan Lixuan was sitting. Upon seeing Chu Chen's arrival, he quickly stood up.

"Chu Chen pays respects to the King!"

"Young Master Chu, please forgive me for summoning you so early in the morning. Today is the day that person comes to collect the jade in exchange for the antidote. I hope you will be able to come later!"

Chu Chen smiled and nodded, then walked to a nearby seat and sat down, waiting for the mysterious person to arrive.

Before an incense stick could burn, a gust of wind suddenly rose at the door, and a dark figure flew in.

Chu Chen couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at the person who had come.

He was dressed in all black, short in stature, with short hair that seemed out of place in this era, and wearing an iron mask on his face.

Upon seeing Chu Chen appear in the main hall, the newcomer immediately addressed Yan Lixuan.

"Hmm, why is there an extra person today?"

After speaking, the newcomer unleashed a powerful aura, heading straight for Yan Lixuan.

Upon seeing this, Eunuch Cao quickly flew to Yan Lixuan's side and blocked the aura.

Chu Chen narrowed his eyes and instantly discerned the person's cultivation level: a seventh-grade expert, a level higher than his own.

Moreover, the aura emanating from him was different from that of the drunkard and his companions; it was a power that Chu Chen had never felt before.
