Chapter 35 035 All the fighting and strife, the fisherman reaps the benefits.

Suddenly, a mechanical voice rang in Jiang Yan's mind.

— Lin Yun's health score is only 38.5%.

Jiang Yan frowned, silently asking Xiao Mei in her mind, "No way, how did he suddenly lower my health by 0.5 points?!"

Xiaomei was also completely baffled. "Who knows? Maybe she's in a bad mood?"

"..."

Jiang Yan glanced at the blob of blue mosaic and thought to herself, let it be, whether it lowers or not is up to me!

They ate some wild berries at midday.

That night, Jiang Yan planned to find another inn, but the town ahead was still far away, so she could only find a cave to spend the night in.

She took out pots, pans, and other utensils from her treasure bag, along with wild vegetables she had picked along the way, and small fish and shrimp she had caught by the roadside, and began preparing dinner.

At this time, the little fox would squat obediently to the side, watching her intently.

Xiao Bai and Ling Yue helped wash the vegetables, while Feng Qingyu was mainly responsible for chopping them.

With a slight cast of magic, the knife traced beautiful arcs in the air, processing both shredded potatoes and fish slices with exquisite skill.

Soon the aroma of the dish filled the mountains and fields, making Mosaic, who was craving it, keep swallowing his saliva.

The little fox had already brought over its special fox-shaped food plate: "Master, I want to eat ribs~ I want to eat fish slices, I want to eat shredded potatoes~ I want..."

Jiang Yan smiled and stuffed a piece of meat into its mouth.

The fox's eyes sparkled as it chewed, its eyes narrowing with pleasure, and it made a satisfied purring sound.

Jiang Yan smiled and said to it, "Go and serve the dishes, get ready to eat."

The little fox nodded obediently, happily did a somersault, and then went to help Xiaobai and Lingyue serve the dishes.

Jiang Yan placed the last dish on the table, and the bowls and chopsticks were already set out.

Apart from Dongfang Chen not eating, there was an empty seat next to the stone table.

Jiang Yan glanced around and called out to the blue mosaic squatting to the side, "Lin Yun, come and eat!"

"I won't eat it, you guys eat it."

After saying that, he turned around and left in a flash.

Jiang Yan sighed helplessly as she watched the mosaic disappear into the distance, and then threw another tantrum.

She took his plate, filled it with his food, and kept it warm in a pot.

When I turned around, I saw that there was a black mosaic over where Lin Yun had been.

Dongfang Chen calmly explained, "It's not that I can't eat some. Since you've invited me so kindly, I'll reluctantly try a few bites."

Jiang Yan: "..."

She didn't seem to have invited him, did she? Because he always refused to eat when she invited him before, she figured there was no need to be polite with him anymore.

Who knew he would do something so unconventional today?

With one more person at the table, plus Dongfang Chen's size, there wasn't enough food...

The little fox looked at the empty plate, its nose twitched, and it started whimpering pitifully again. It rubbed against Jiang Yan's leg, saying, "The fox wants more food! The fox isn't full~ Waaah~"

Jiang Yan sighed and had no choice but to take out some wild fruits from her treasure bag.

The fox slurped down several pills in one go, finishing them off in the blink of an eye.

Jiang Yan frowned as she looked on; the appetite was simply astonishing… and with the other animals on the table, she really couldn't afford to feed them all.

Seeing that he was still not full, she had no choice but to take out some magical artifacts she had bought at the market from her backpack: "How about you eat some of these?"

The fox glanced at the food and shook its head, saying, "No, no, the fox only wants to eat the food its master makes... Waaah~"

Feng Qingyu snorted softly. It was truly unique that she had raised such an ancient ferocious beast to be so picky about food.

Jiang Yan comforted the little fox for a while. She always felt that it was not a good thing for it to eat too much, and she should not indulge its appetite too much.

The little fox's tail feels better and better, but despite eating a lot, it doesn't seem to gain weight, and I don't know why.

A moment later, she carried the meal she had saved for Lin Yun and walked toward the bluish-green mosaic.

"Hey, dinner's ready."

Lin Yun smelled the familiar aroma of the food, but still didn't want to move.

Did you think you could appease him with just a dish of food? How could he, a descendant of the Medicine King Valley, be so lacking in integrity?

Jiang Yan looked at the arrogant little snake and sighed, "Since you don't want to eat it, then I'll give it to the little fox..."

Before she could even stand up with her plate, the snake's tail suddenly hooked onto it.

"You are not allowed to give my food to others!"

"You're not going to eat it, what a waste!" Jiang Yan pretended to leave again.

Lin Yun immediately wrapped his arm around her wrist and began to wolf down his food.

Jiang Yan smiled helplessly, "Nobody's going to take it from you."

Her gaze swept over him, and she noticed a new, fine wound on his snake tail. She frowned and asked, "How did you get hurt?"

"Hmph~"

It's all because of her.

He ultimately did not complain about Feng Qingyu, after all, he was the one who started today's events.

Jiang Yan frowned and carefully examined the snake tail; it looked like a minor abrasion.

She took out disinfectant and ointment and gently treated him.

"You're not allowed to be naughty anymore. I won't let you take a bath tonight."

Lin Yun lay motionless on her wrist; in fact, the injury was negligible to him.

Jiang Yan treated his wounds, then gently stroked his snake head and softly instructed, "Be more careful next time, and make sure you recover as soon as possible, okay?"

"Mmm," he replied obediently, a rare occurrence for him.

When he first went to Medicine King Valley, he would always return from gathering herbs covered in injuries, and his grandmaster would always remind him of this. He's been away for so many days now; he wonders if she misses him.

Jiang Yan seemed to sense that something was wrong with him, and frowned as she asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Yun rested his head on her wrist and said listlessly, "I miss my grandmaster."

She was stunned, then smiled and comforted him, "Once we break the contract, you should hurry back to find her!"

"snort!"

Lin Yun slid off her wrist in a flash and ran away.

Jiang Yan: "..."

Is she throwing a tantrum again? She didn't say anything wrong!

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She put her hands on her hips and yelled at the bluish mosaic with a fierce yet cute expression, "Let me tell you, if you don't change this lousy temper, no Daoist partner will want to raise a snake like you!"

With a whoosh, the little snake returned, climbing onto her wrist once more, gritting its teeth and saying, "Then I won't break the bond; I'll just stay with you forever!"

Without waiting for Jiang Yan to speak, he quickly crawled away.

Jiang Yan shook her head helplessly; this person's temperament was just like a child's.

Just as Lin Yun was about to go into the river to cool off, Feng Qingyu blocked his way.

The man looked down at him and asked, "Was that last sentence the truth?"

Lin Yun feigned ignorance, casually raising the snake's tail as he asked, "Which sentence?"

“You know what I’m talking about.” Feng Qingyu looked at him and chuckled, “No wonder she dislikes you so much because you’re so hypocritical.”

One sentence instantly made Lin Yunlin explode with anger: "Is she only looking down on me? You're looked down on by her too! What's there to be proud of!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Bai Que standing not far away, and Dongfang Chen coiled in the corner.

The atmosphere became inexplicably awkward.

After a moment of silence, Dongfang Chen spoke slowly, "She treats me differently from you. She knows the vast difference between us, which is why she doesn't dare to presume to be with me."

Lin Yun glanced at the loading and couldn't help but exclaim, "You're quite good at comforting yourself!"

Even the usually composed Shen Yuchen couldn't help but roll her eyes. Being disliked is being disliked, why bother deceiving yourself...?

Feng Qingyu curled her lips slightly and added casually, "Shameless."

Before Dongfang Chen could get angry, the three of them disappeared together.

That evening, as usual, Jiang Yan gave the animals a bath, except for Lin Yun and 'Gongsun Jin'.

Lin Yun was injured.

Gongsun Jin, he doesn't need her help.

Faced with his sudden change of attitude, Jiang Yan was puzzled. Why did such a perfectly normal person suddenly become so coy?

Before going to bed that night, the little fox used two stones to make two beds. Jiang Yan and its bed were placed inside, and the other bed was placed outside the cave entrance for the others to use.

They slept fully clothed, each in their own room, and there was nothing unpleasant about it. Dongfang Chen disdained to associate with them, so he curled up at the cave entrance, which conveniently blocked the wind...

That old demon Feng Qingyu, today he's on the right track, giving each of those guys a piece of land.

Others may not know what he was thinking, but Lin Yun knew it perfectly well. He was just afraid that they would climb into Jiang Yan's bed in the middle of the night.

He sat cross-legged at the foot of the bed, his emerald green vertical pupils fixed on the figure inside.

When the night was deep and quiet, taking advantage of the dim light, he crept over silently and swiftly wrapped his arms around her ankle...

Sure enough, this is the most comfortable way to sleep!

Just as Lin Yun was about to close his eyes, he felt a chill on his body. He turned his head and saw that the shameless little white snake had also climbed up.

In an instant, the two snake tails began to wrestle in the air.

As they fought fiercely, a white figure stealthily hopped up and headed towards the bedside.

Lin Yun swept his snake tail, sending the rabbit flying to Feng Qingyu's feet as she approached...

Feng Qingyu squinted as he picked up Ling Yue, cast a spell on the two small snakes to freeze them, and then calmly carried her out of the cave.

"If you don't want to sleep properly inside, then go sleep outside."

Dongfang Chen hissed as he swam out to watch the excitement.

Seeing that everyone had left, Shen Yuchen quietly walked towards Jiang Yan's bedside.

I don't know what she was dreaming about, but she waved her hands haphazardly, smiling sweetly and murmuring, "Lingyue baby, can I have a hug?"

Seeing her hand reaching towards him, Shen Yuchen suddenly changed his appearance...

Jiang Yan felt as if she had grabbed something soft and squishy while she was half asleep, and pulled it into her arms.
