When Lin Wu, who came to send Jiu Qinglu off, saw Lin Wu lying on the table motionless, he thought she was sleeping, so he put down his things and wanted to leave.

But he soon noticed that Lin Wu's breath was not right, so he turned back to see, only to find that she had fainted.

No matter how they called, he couldn't wake up, so Xuanniao hurried to find Mochuan to report.

At that time, Mochuan was meditating and regulating his breathing on the stone platform on the top of the mountain.

As soon as Xuanniao came up, he stammered, "Master Ling, the human you brought back seems to be...dying soon."

Mo Chuan instantly opened his eyes and tilted his head, "What's going on?"

"She fainted for some reason and has not woken up. I checked her body and found that the damage has clearly healed..."

Before Xuanniao could finish his words, Mochuan disappeared before his sight, so he quickly transformed and chased after him.

When he returned to Lin Wu's residence, he saw his Lord Ling pick up the fragile human and put her on the bed, and put his fingers on her wrist to feel her pulse.

Xuanniao was secretly amazed and went in quietly.

Even through the mask, he could tell that Mochuan was frowning.

Mo Chuan immediately withdrew his hand and looked at Lin Wu with confusion, obviously making sure that Lin Wu was not injured at this moment.

"Otherwise, shall I ask Ba Ling Lord for help? Ba Ling Lord is good at medicine..."

Xuanniao observed the expressions on the screen and made a suggestion. Halfway through his speech, Lin Wu on the bed suddenly murmured something.

Both of them had excellent hearing, and when they heard Lin Wu say "meat...rice...", they were stunned.

Xuanniao reacted immediately: "Master Ling, she seems hungry. I heard her say she wanted to eat something."

Mo Chuan said calmly: "Then what are you still doing here? Go prepare something for her."

Xuanniao felt a little aggrieved: "But she said she wanted to eat me."

Mo Chuan: “…”

Xuanniao added weakly: "All natural things in the Thirteen Ridges have living things, so they cannot be eaten."

Mochuan frowned.

Fortunately, Xuanniao quickly thought of it: "Master, you have been in seclusion for a long time, you may not know that there is a human in the four masters' place. Otherwise, I will go and ask the four masters how the humans eat."

Mochuan also nodded.

The black bird transformed and flew away.

Mo Chuan's gaze returned to Lin Wu, and he immediately reached out to tuck the quilt around her.

…

Lin Wu was awakened by the smell of paste.

She suddenly thought there was a fire and smoke around her, so she woke up immediately, threw off the quilt and wanted to run.

Just turning around, I saw a man sitting at a table not far away. On the table in front of him were three or four black plates of things that I couldn't make out.

"Master...Master of the Eleventh Ridge?" Lin Wu hesitated, wondering if he hadn't woken up yet.

The man poured himself a glass of water and hummed lightly.

It's true.

Lin Wu reacted for a few seconds, put on his shoes and got out of bed, but he almost fell back because he was dizzy from hunger, which attracted the man's attention.

Lin Wu quickly calmed himself down, took a deep breath and walked over quickly, not wanting to miss this rare opportunity.

"Master of the Eleventh Ridge..."

"Don't you want to eat?"

Mochuan spoke at the same time.

Lin Wu paused, looked at the table as he was looking, and then he was stunned.

"These...are for me?"

The man was very frugal with his words and just hummed.

Lin Wu: “…”

Lin Wu said politely: "These don't look like they are very edible."

Mochuan looked away.

"That's all."

"After you finish eating, talk to this ridge master."

"..." Lin Wu asked: "Do you have to eat it?"

If you want him to agree to give you the magic weapon, you must first meet his requirements.

But……

Lin Wu looked at those discs and became unusually silent.

Is this test too much? If you want her to give up, you can just tell her directly and she will think of other ways.

My stomach suddenly growled a few times.

Lin Wu faced Mo Chuan's gaze, sat down with gritted teeth, and casually picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

"Ugh——" Lin Wu's conditioned reflex.

The air seemed to have cooled down by several degrees. Lin Wu chewed up the mixed taste of the hard stone and swallowed it.

Mochuan looked at her.

Lin Wu had no choice but to go in and eat.

After finishing a plate of food, Lin Wu quickly put down his chopsticks and said with a pale face, "I'm full. I'm really full."

Just as he finished speaking, Lin Wu's stomach growled a few more times.

Lin Wu: “…”

Mochuan; "..."

Lin Wu had no choice but to pick up the chopsticks again, but his hand was shaking a little.

"It's okay." Mo Chuan spoke at this time.

Lin Wuru put it down immediately as if he had been pardoned, and said sincerely: "Master Eleven, I really want to ask you to lend me the magic weapon. If you have any other requests, please feel free to ask."

The person opposite him suddenly breathed heavily.

"You think I'm making things difficult for you?"

Lin Wu blurted out: "No!"

Mochuan looked at her and suddenly stood up and left.

Lin Wu wondered why this happened suddenly and wanted to follow him to say a few more words, but was blocked by the barrier outside. He could only sit on the steps and watch the man disappear.

Not long after, the black bird came over and brought a few red fruits that were hard to identify.

Whatever it is, it's better than that charcoal.

Lin Wu immediately thanked him and ate it, but his facial features were distorted by the sourness.

"This is something I found with great difficulty, and it's something that outsiders can eat." Xuanniao's words made Lin Wu realize the urge to vomit.

Xuanniao looked at her hesitantly, then turned and left.

Lin Wusheng lay on the steps dejectedly. Soon he felt cold again and went back to his room, wondering what to do.

But before she could think it through, when it got dark, Xuanniao came again, bringing a few plates of black food, which were similar to what Lin Wu had eaten in front of Mochuan, but perhaps a little better.

Lin Wu had a stomachache for a while after eating that dish, and he couldn’t imagine how uncomfortable it would be to eat all of this.

Xuanniao said, "This was done by the Lord of the Ridge."

Who are you kidding! It’s not like she hasn’t seen how delicious Mochuan’s cooking is.

It has been a thousand years since Mochuan was still in Baimin Village. After such a long time, Mochuan must have learned how to cook.

So this is definitely a test, to make her give up and leave!

Lin Wu was provoked to rebel, and she insisted on staying!

So Xuanniao watched in shock as Lin Wu ate most of it, and seeing her look pale, he couldn't help but ask, "Are you okay?"

Lin Wu said stubbornly, "I'm fine."

Xuanniao nodded and left. He came to see him off early the next morning, and again at noon and in the evening.

For two or three days, even though the food delivered to him seemed not as terrible as before, Lin Wu still ate so much that he felt like his soul was leaving his body.

On the third night, Lin Wu couldn't hold on any longer, so he pulled Xuanniao away and said, "Master, I want to see my master! Let's talk it over, don't do this!"

Xuanniao was curious: "Who is your master?"

"Your Ridge Master!" Lin Wu wanted to change his identity and stay, maybe he could get better treatment. "He and I have a master-disciple relationship, a great master-disciple relationship, he can tell it with one calculation! In this case, I will kowtow and become his disciple immediately, and we can sit down and have a good chat together!"

The black bird stared at Lin Wu with wide eyes for a while, then left quickly. (End of this chapter)
