Chapter 203: Mantis Catching Cicada



If the little angel sees anti-theft, it means the purchase rate is less than 70%~ After benefiting from Luo Cang's "Returning Wind Bagua Step" the day before, Luo Jiujiang was unusually active when he went to Beixue Garden the next day.

Seeing him coming, Luo Cang said nothing, only nodded, then raised his hand, and a pile of scrolls rained down from thin air. If Luo Jiujiang hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been buried alive by this mess of scrolls and books.

Luo Jiujiang looked at the intimidating pile of books, and an ominous premonition slowly emerged in his heart.

Luo Cang reached out and rummaged through the pile of books for a few times. Then, as if he had made up his mind, he pulled out a book that was about as thick as an adult's palm and threw it to Luo Jiujiang.

"Ouch." Luo Jiujiang shook the weight in his hand. "Thank you, Master, for giving me this heavy weapon. With this weight, if I encounter danger and throw it forward, even if I can't kill the enemy, I can at least break a bone or two."

Ignoring Luo Jiujiang's joking remarks, Luo Cang coldly ordered: "This is for you to recite. Don't make a single mistake from beginning to end."

The ominous feeling came true in the blink of an eye. Luo Jiujiang felt his vision go dark for a moment and let out a long breath: "I am truly ashamed to be able to accept your kindness, oh no, your love."

Luo Cang snorted and laughed, then added indifferently, "Don't get me wrong, I mean all of this pile."

Luo Jiujiang: “…”

"A day's plan begins in the morning. You'd better start now." Luo Cang turned his wheelchair around expressionlessly. "I'll come back to check in half an hour. If you haven't memorized the outline of that book in your hand, you won't have to eat today."

He rolled his gloomy wheelchair over the threshold of the house, then added, as if remembering something: "By the way, if you think it's not enough, there will be more after you memorize these. My dear disciple, how can this little 'heavy' expression of your master's love for you fully express the depth of his love?"

After saying this lightly, Luo Cang turned his head and raised the corner of his mouth in a condescending manner, giving a forced smile.

Luo Jiujiang: “!!!”

Even after the door slammed shut before his eyes, Luo Jiujiang still hadn't recovered. He was more horrified by the thought of Luo Cang joking than by the pile of books that would take him forever to memorize.

Speaking of which... Luo Jiujiang swallowed his saliva: That was a joke, right?

Half an hour later, Luo Jiujiang was finally able to enter the room. Standing in the room of Beixue Garden, which he had never had the chance to visit, he recited the general outline to Luo Cang.

Although the book was frighteningly thick, its contents were actually quite interesting. The general outline section began with the Dragon God's creation of the world and continued with the dragon's demise, describing how its scales were scattered everywhere, its blood formed into a vast ocean, and its sudden madness before death, which fragmented the world into over three thousand worlds of varying sizes and created the unique form of the current cultivation world.

The rest of the book talks about the world's exotic flowers and plants, precious minerals, and even many monsters with different appearances.

The content of the book is so interesting, and Luo Jiujiang is not an unlearned person, so he is quite happy reading it... If it weren't for Luo Cang's current behavior, he would be even happier.

No one knew how Luo Cang came up with this sinister idea, but the eight-immortal table in front of the two of them was filled with a dazzling array of food, including scallion-flavored silver thread rolls, jujube-paste mountain medicine cakes, shredded chicken wonton noodles, rock sugar lotus seed porridge... The various foods were emitting aroma and heat unrestrainedly, making Luo Jiujiang's stomach rumble like a mountain.

But Luo Cang was still there enjoying his porridge with pickles, eating the chapters that Luo Jiujiang had recited to him. Even his facial expression didn't show the bitterness and hatred of the past. He would occasionally squint his eyes, looking quite comfortable.

Luo Jiujiang took a deep breath and turned his eyes away, but the smell made him hungry. "The dragon is born in the sea, spanning the seven oceans and soaring into the sky. It divides the yin and yang energies, and determines the distinction between day and night, and the order of the four seasons. With the help of the crape myrtle, it flies in the sky, divides into four groups, and protects the ten tribes. So a seven-day banquet was held. Hmm, the banquet included tofu and shrimp, beef soup dumplings, braised pork flat noodles, scallion lettuce, and fried yellow croaker..."

Luo Cang: “…”

He had just taken a mouthful of porridge in his mouth and almost spit it out.

Luo Cang was choked by Luo Jiujiang's menu, and he could no longer enjoy his breakfast. He threw the spoon into the bowl and listened to the chatter of "Yuanbao pork dumplings, crispy roasted duck skin, and rock sugar-braised scrambled eggs" in his ears, feeling both angry and amused.

"That's enough." Luo Cang said with a straight face, "Recite it well."

Luo Jiujiang shrugged and suppressed the long list of dish names that burst out of his mind.

"...the fertile soil cracked, the plains rose, yin and yang became disordered, the Qian Yuan split, heaven and earth collapsed, and more than three thousand realms were formed. The realm of the Four Symbols is still outstanding in the world..."

After reciting the last paragraph, Luo Cang nodded in satisfaction. Thinking of the little bastard's performance just now, his palms began to itch again. After a moment of silence, he pointed to the food on the table and said, "Come and eat together."

Luo Jiujiang pulled out a chair with a smile on his face, picked up a small piece of date paste cake and put it into his mouth. After chewing it twice, he was stunned by the extremely sweet taste in his mouth.

Luo Cang asked knowingly, "Isn't it delicious?"

"No, no, no, it's too delicious." Luo Jiujiang swallowed the food in his mouth in a few gulps, but he didn't rush to take the second piece. He first glanced at Luo Cang, then tentatively scooped up a spoonful of rice porridge and swallowed it. The taste on his tongue was still as delicious as the date cake.

Unconsciously stirring the porridge in the bowl with a spoon, Luo Jiujiang asked tentatively: "Did you add tija leaf powder to the food?"

"Yes." Luo Cang nodded coldly, then looked up at Luo Jiujiang, "Have you eaten it?"

"No, it's just that I'm lucky and my guesses are accurate." Luo Jiujiang smiled and rubbed the tip of his nose. "I just flipped through the book you gave me and happened to see the record of Titian leaves."
