She went inside first and bowed to the leader before Qin Luo, holding Wu Hua's hand, greeted her.
"I hope Grandma Li is well!"
Then Qin Luo led Wu Hua and introduced her to...
"Grandma Li, this is your uncle's younger brother. You can just call him Zaizai!"
Seeing how adorable Wu Hua was, Old Madam Li picked her up.
"Little one, hello! Are you hungry? How about Grandma takes you to dinner? There's lots of delicious food tonight!"
When Wu Hua heard about the delicious food, she couldn't wait; her little head nodded rapidly.
The leader standing to the side chuckled to himself, thinking to himself, "Who can compare this little glutton to the steady negotiator from before!"
It's not just that they look like two completely different people, it's like night and day.
Afterwards, the group followed Madam Li to the dining room!
The layout of the dining room and the decoration style of the backyard are both very conventional!
The hall was very bright and spacious, with clean and tidy bluestone floors, and a large round table in the center.
It was piled high with all sorts of exquisite cold dishes and snacks, clearly something children would love.
Sun Yanzhi was already waiting in the dining room. After the group was seated, he instructed the servants to serve the hot dishes.
The roast duck, served first, was golden and crispy, with tender meat and an irresistible aroma!
Next up was steamed sea bass, with tender flesh and a delicious broth!
Then there's the braised lion's head meatballs, which are huge and melt in your mouth!
Other meat dishes also have their own unique characteristics, and the vegetarian dishes are equally elaborate.
Stir-fried seasonal vegetables, jade tofu, and corn with pine nuts are not only visually appealing, but also have a refreshingly sweet taste.
Qin Luo's favorite dish is still the dry-fried shredded beef, which is spicy and delicious, and the more you eat, the more fragrant it becomes!
Unfortunately, cattle cannot be slaughtered at will here. Whether buying a cow, slaughtering a cow, or dealing with a sick cow, you must register with the government!
In short, it was extremely difficult for ordinary people to eat beef.
Every dish on the table was made to Wu Hua's liking.
It ate with great relish, and Old Madam Li was happy to feed it as well.
It seems that all grandmothers in the world love children who can eat a lot and aren't picky eaters.
After the meal, various desserts and fruits were served.
Such as candied peaches, almond milk, crabapple cakes, and seasonal fresh fruits.
Wu Hua felt like she had fallen into a honey pot, happily devouring all the desserts.
Fearing it would overeat, Old Madam Li went and brought it a bowl of hawthorn water to drink.
Wu Hua obediently finished her drink, and Madam Li's affection for her was beyond words.
He wished this were his own beloved grandson!
Qin Luo saw that Sun Yanzhi and the leader had finished their meal and showed no sign of leaving.
He then asked the two if there was anything else they needed to tell him. Sun Yanzhi nodded and began to speak.
“I have interrogated Zhu Dou, and what he said is exactly the same as what those bandits confessed before. The imperial court has also issued a proclamation that all such bandits should be beheaded!”
Qin Luo brought Zhu Dou back so that Sun Yanzhi could vent his anger; otherwise, he would have killed him long ago.
Now that he has personally sentenced Zhu Dou to death, he can consider it revenge.
The leader then added, "I'll take you to Ghost Cliff Valley first thing tomorrow morning!"
After Qin Luo and Wu Hua nodded in agreement, Sun Yanzhi became uneasy upon hearing this.
"Sir, they are still children. Isn't it safe for them to go to Ghost Cliff Valley?"
Madam Li quickly added, "Yes! Zaizai is only three years old, and Luoluo is a little girl..."
The leader rolled his eyes inwardly: You two know absolutely nothing about them!
Qin Luo realized they had misunderstood, and then explained to them.
"Uncle Sun, Grandma Li, we begged the chief to take us there! There might be someone we know there!"
Hearing her say that, the mother and son stopped trying to persuade her.
After all, they are outsiders, and I'm afraid that saying too much might annoy them.
The group chatted for a while longer about the development and changes in Shipo County before returning to their rooms to rest.
Qin Luo returned to her room, washed up, and locked the door before entering the space.
Upon entering, I was stunned by the chaotic scene inside.
Wu Hua appeared much calmer, presumably because she already knew what was going on inside.
Fan Xing and Xia Beinian glared at Su Junli, who seemed oblivious to everything.
They stared blankly at Erhun, while Tengteng and Titi watched the show from the sidelines!
The planting area was mostly destroyed, and cracks appeared on the three souls' bodies from being whipped.
Qin Luo stared at Tengteng in disbelief: "You did this? One against three?"
The vines swayed back and forth, denying: It wasn't me, it wasn't me...
When Fan Xing saw Qin Luo, she cried as if she had suffered a great injustice.
"Luo Luo, you're finally here! Sha Bei and I were being bullied to death! If it weren't for the fact that he is... I would have killed him already! We wouldn't let him run rampant here! We only didn't fight back because of you! Waaaaah~"
Qin Luo was baffled by her wailing.
"Who? Su Junli? He hit both of you? No way!"
She stared incredulously at the dazed Su Junli.
Fan Xing's suffering stemmed from the fact that he couldn't tell her the truth.
All she could do was look at Wu Hua with accusation and sorrow, letting her explain.
Wu Hua sighed, looking with heartache at the destroyed plants in the field.
Suddenly, he received a look from her, so he had no choice but to explain to Qin Luo.
"They probably had a memory lapse and mistook them for bad guys. When they started fighting, it triggered the space's protection mechanism. Their injuries were probably from the vines over there in the woods!"
This was the first time Qin Luo had ever heard of a space having a protection mechanism!
"Then why did you stop smoking as soon as we came in?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Hua thought of the painstaking efforts of the beastmen ancestors in creating the companion space.
"They want me to practice on them!"
Then, it waved a ray of life towards the planting area!
The damaged plants regrowed and returned to their original state in the blink of an eye.
Another burst of energy was thrown at the three souls, and the cracks on their bodies were quickly repaired.
Before the three souls could even express their gratitude, they were stunned by Wu Hua's next words.
You have damaged the plants in the space; you must be punished!
These days, you will be in charge of harvesting the vegetables, fruits and grains in the fields!
Put everything away neatly in the warehouse; stack them up carefully, otherwise it's not pleasant to look at.
Fan Xing nestled into Xia Beinian's arms, feeling wronged. Xia Beinian silently comforted her.
Su Junli felt he was the most wronged; he had no idea what had happened.
Not only was he beaten and injured, but now he's being punished as well.
Qin Luo didn't speak up for Sanhun, and went to rest with Wu Hua in her arms.
Once inside the vine-covered house, Qin Luo began to inquire about the little snake.
Wu Hua didn't hide anything and told her her guess.
If it were before, Qin Luo would definitely have believed its guess, but the Heavenly Dao clearly stated that the Beast Realm had disappeared.
How could ancient ferocious beasts still descend? Could there be several beast realms?
Then she asked.
"Little one, how many beast realms do you have? Are you one auspicious beast and one ferocious beast?"
"How could that be! There's only one Beast Realm. Whether they're ferocious beasts or auspicious beasts, they all live in the same Beast Realm, and we get along very well with each other!"
"They get along well? Aren't ferocious beasts supposed to be very cruel?"
Wu Hua rolled her eyes at her.
"Who said that? Ferocious beasts are just a type of creature with different characteristics, what you call superpowers! Auspicious beasts bring benefits to people, while ferocious beasts bring things that are detrimental to human survival!"
