It's been over a month that Hyun and his friends have been traveling. During that time, they stopped to eat and rest.
There were already many villages that they had passed through, yet they had yet to discover the whereabouts of the Hyun family. Now they have reached the gates of the capital.
Since they became the center of attention at the beginning of the journey, Hyun has transformed Lion's body into a two-year-old child.
All this he learned from the old book he was given. That was the reason why he dared to bring Lion out of the dead village.
He was thinking carefully. The appearance of a lion in the middle of the population will definitely make a scene. It didn't matter if it was a small village that had few inhabitants. If there are many people, it will be a problem.
Hyun could have been arrested for endangering the citizens. And worse still Lion will be killed. Fortunately in the old book there was a way to turn demons into humans. Especially a demon that was still low stage and could not change.
Although still small, but Lion does not like to be carried. He kept walking like the others.
Every resident who will enter the capital will be checked at the post that is at the gate of the city. There were some military members standing guard at the post.
"Where are you guys from?" ask one of the officers when their turn is checked.
"We are from Karo village. But we fled to the village of Ruo" Yun replied.
"Keep what are you going to do here?" ask her by looking at Hyun and the others one by one. When she saw Lion's tiny face she looked at him for quite a while.
"We want to find our families who are scattered. There have been many villages that we passed through, but we have not found their existence," Yun replied representing another. Moreover, Yun's appearance was more mature than the others.
"You can come in but we have to check your stuff first."
"No problem."
The backpacks that were on Hyun, Yin and Yun's backs they lowered. Then give it to the officer.
Fortunately Hyun had already put down the items that could create suspicion he had put into the space ring. There were only a few change of clothes and also a few coins there.
The backpack they got caught the attention of the officer. In addition to the good shape is also very efficient to carry goods.
"May I know where you got this?"
"It just so happened that we bought it in the village we passed by. Is there something wrong with this thing?" ask Hyun.
"No. I'm just interested in having it" the officer replied honestly.
"Oh.sorry, we also need to bring our clothes," Yun said politely.
"No papa. You can go inside already. Remember not to make trouble. If you need anything, you can ask the officer for help" said the officer wisely. He was indeed interested in their backpack but did not intend to snatch it.
Hyun felt the officer was kind and honest. So he was willing to give her the backpack he was wearing. But before that he took the clothes inside.
"Uncle.this is for uncle," said Cao Hyun as he extended his backpack to the officer.
The officer was shocked. He was happy to hear it but he was also not a bad person who would snatch things from a small child.
"no need. If you give it to me, what about your clothes?" the officer said with a smile.
"I'll put my clothes on my brother's. This is for uncle, pray that we can find our mother" Hyun said softly.
The officer was powerless to refuse Hyun's gift. But he can't just take it. So he took something out of his pocket.
"Alright.this stuff uncle accept. But take this jade. If next time there's a problem just show me this jade."
"What if we're looking for a house?"
"Do you want to buy a house?"
"Looks like. We don't know if we're going to meet our mother. Despite returning to the village, our house could not be lived in. So I'm going to buy a house here."
"Then it's easier. You can use this jade. Go to the home sales agent and show me this jade. So no one's gonna use you guys."
Hyun happily accepted it. Then she thanked him.
"Thank you uncle. Then we'll go first."
"Please."
Hyun left the place cheerfully. How not, just because of the backpack he gets more advantage.
He did plan to stay in the capital for quite a long time. Even if they had to leave the capital later, but at least they had a home.
After that they actually met the home sales agent. Hyun had already prepared a bag of gold coins before entering the agency.
Hyun got a house downtown. Strategic place. Consists of two floors. It's just that his condition is very concerning.
"How sir, do you accept it?" ask the agent to Yun.
Yun glanced at Hyun to ask for an answer. After getting the code, he agreed.
"I'm going to buy this house."
"Then let's take care of the letters at '" the agent asked.
"Good."
The agent brought Yun and his fellow government officers. Officially, the house is already theirs.
It turned out that their activities were monitored by the gate attendants. He is actually the minister of defense.
The defense minister is the elder brother of Grand concubine. He disguised himself as an officer to see firsthand the performance of his men.
After taking care of the house papers, they returned home. They still have no intention of cleaning up. All they need right now is rest. So they split the room.
The house is quite big. There are five empty rooms, a living room, a kitchen and also a bathroom.
It seemed like the house used to belong to the nobility otherwise, at least the previous owner was a wealthy person.
Hyun chose the room on the second floor. Same with Yin. Lion and Yin are downstairs.
Hyun entered the room he had chosen. The room was very dirty. Inevitably he had to clean it before using it.
Hyun asked the mattress, pillows, blankets, bolsters and some hygiene kits on the system guards. Not only for himself but also for Yin, Yun, and Lion.
They finally did not rest. Everyone cleaned their rooms.
After the room was clean, they took a break. Hyun grew tired until he woke up the next day. This was the quietest sleep he had experienced since being in this body.
The next day Hyun again asked the system guards for food. Actually he wants to cook. The kitchen has not been cleaned. The ingredients for making the dishes are also not available.
