Qin Luo had just put Niu Niu to sleep and was about to get out of the car to check on Jing Ming and the others.
She had just thought a lot, and if we're talking about danger this time, the most dangerous one is Jingming.
Niu Niu's mother told Zhang Niangzi about how Jingming had pleaded for grain and saved the lives of the entire city.
The disaster victims, whom we were most worried about, and the people in the county kept their mouths shut!
It's truly pathetic and lamentable that the villagers and clansmen who trusted them the most are spreading such rumors...
The vine spirit has now disappeared...
Those people, including Madam Zhang, will definitely need to find a replacement...
No one can refuse someone who can create miracles!
Qin Luo found Jingming and the others and told them her thoughts.
Jingming didn't pay much attention.
"Don't worry, sister. I have my uncles and brothers protecting me, and if all else fails, there's always the temple keeper. You don't need to worry!"
The temple keeper standing nearby was displeased.
"Host, you have no conscience! What do you mean by 'even if all else fails, I'm still here'? I cherished you, but you discarded me like trash. You've broken my heart!"
Jingming rolled her eyes, speechless.
Qin Luo took a large bag of spicy strips out of the cloth bag and handed it to him.
"Grandpa Temple Keeper, you haven't tried this before, would you like to?"
The temple keeper took it with a grin and said, "Alright! Let's give it a try!"
He happily accepted the spicy snack and went to share it with Jingming's fellow disciples!
Qin Luo took out another package and stuffed it into Jingming's cloth bag.
"Little brother, this snack is made from beans and it's really delicious! It's a bit spicy, but it's so flavorful, I'm sure you'll love it!"
Seeing Qin Luo's favoritism towards her, Jingming smiled until her eyes narrowed into slits.
"Haha~ Thank you, sister!"
He had barely finished speaking when he heard the temple keeper's piercing roar: "Luo girl!"
Qin Luo was taken aback.
"Oh no, did they give him the spiciest one?!"
She slipped two bottles of yogurt into Jingming's hand.
"Hey little brother, could you give this to the temple keeper for me? It'll help relieve the spiciness. I have to go now!"
After saying that, he disappeared like a gust of wind.
Jingming watched her retreating figure, then glanced at the yogurt in his hand.
He grinned mischievously and put it directly into his cloth bag.
As I walked towards the temple keeper and his companions, I noticed that the temple keeper's lips were bright red from the spiciness.
The bald heads of several of my fellow disciples were covered in sweat from the spiciness!
There were also a few junior brothers who got lucky, but they couldn't outbid the older ones today!
He laughed in a rather unkind way.
"Hahaha~ Temple keeper grandpa, why does your mouth look like it's been stung by a bee from the back mountain?"
Then he looked at his several senior uncles.
"Hey! Martial Uncle, why are you all so restless today? Your heads are covered in sweat. Is it because of your rigorous training?"
Several people were so angry at him that they fell backward and grabbed him.
The temple keeper grabbed a spicy strip and stuffed it into his mouth. At that moment, Jingming understood.
If you're not good at kung fu, never be a smart aleck!
Otherwise, you'll end up like him, the abbot with the thickest lips at Fuhua Temple!
The group only let him go after seeing his lips turn into sausages, and then ran off to get a drink of water, completely satisfied.
Seeing that everyone had left, Jingming quickly took out some yogurt from his cloth bag and started drinking it.
After finishing the bottle, he finally felt that his lips were his own…
Qin Luo had only walked halfway back when she saw Mu Feng coming to find her.
"Uncle, you were looking for me?"
Mu Feng nodded, but didn't tell her that Qin Liang had agreed to let him be her father.
He didn't want Qin Luo to feel pressured; he only wished her peace and happiness.
He reached out and ruffled her hair.
"I promised to protect you, I can't be too far away! I just heard the temple keeper calling you, is something wrong?"
Qin Luo chuckled foolishly.
"It's nothing, I just gave him a bag of snacks, and he loves them!"
Mu Feng rubbed her head.
"Our Luo Luo is kind-hearted; Buddha will surely bless you!"
The uncle and nephew returned to the carriage, laughing and joking.
The temple keeper and his companions, however, were in agony. They drank pot after pot of water, but it only grew spicier with each sip.
Qinling and the others decided to rest in place for two days.
There were too many wounded to carry all the injured, and the donkey carts couldn't handle them all. Some of the most seriously injured had broken legs.
In the middle of the night, Shuiying and her people caught up with them.
When Qin Xian first saw the torches moving quickly toward them, he was startled.
He thought it was a thief, but he was relieved when he saw Shuiying!
He helped the Shouze tribe members park the donkey cart.
They were given a spot to rest in, a place where Doctor You had sprinkled medicinal powder.
The group was very grateful to him!
Shui Ying stormed up to Qin Luo and shouted in a thunderous voice...
"Luo Luo, how could you do this? How could you abandon us and sneak away like this!"
Qin Luo, who was asleep, was awakened by her voice.
Looking at her with a bewildered expression, he blurted out, "I'm not a bad woman!"
Shui Ying clearly didn't understand, tilting her head to look at her.
Wu Hua, however, was already rolling on the ground laughing.
"Hahaha~ You scumbag girl, hahaha~"
Qin Luo asked it in her mind in a terrifying, demonic tone.
"Little one, is that funny? If you're still rolling around on the floor, don't even think about sleeping in my bed. Go take a shower and change your clothes right now!"
Wu Hua immediately covered her mouth with her little hooves, not daring to say another word.
Fluttering its little wings, it flew to the lower reaches of the stream.
The evil vine even thoughtfully provided it with a towel and pajamas.
For a moment, the space was exceptionally quiet except for the sound of water.
The Bodhi tree swayed its branches dismissively, mocking Wu Hua.
The vines lashed out.
The Bodhi tree immediately pulled back its branches that were swaying in the wind...
