She randomly selected a lucky horse, and with a swift stroke, blood splattered everywhere.
The other horses, camels, and bison trembled with fear.
Wu Hua watched all this from the rooftop, feeling an indescribable warmth in her heart.
At that moment, he even felt that whether or not he could return to the Beast Realm didn't seem so important anymore.
With Qin Luo and the others around, home is home.
Looking at the corners of his mouth that never stopped drooling, Mao Mao figured it must be because the osmanthus cake was so delicious.
That's why he was laughing so happily; he patted Wu Hua's arm with a leaf.
"Second brother, I also want to eat osmanthus cake. Could you give me a few more pieces later?"
Wu Hua picked him up and threw him forcefully towards Xu He.
"No problem, just wait!"
After throwing Mao Mao, he flew towards Qin Luo.
Accompanying her to cut and prepare the horse meat, Mao Mao felt her leaves...
Still warm from Wu Hua's touch, her body was already on Xu He's back.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."
Xuhe didn't blame it, but instead waved its wings to signal it to come down.
"I know you don't have the guts. I don't need to think to know it was your second brother who did it."
Mao Mao leaped off its back, nervously defending Wu Hua.
"My second brother didn't do it on purpose, it was my own mistake that I misjudged it..."
Xuhe understood that its cautious nature stemmed from being bullied for a long time in the demon realm.
It feared offending any creature more powerful than itself.
It always tries to take care of everyone's feelings, but in reality, it's the one that needs the most care.
"Okay, okay, I understand. Now tell me, how did you get your second brother to throw it back?"
Remembering what Wu Hua said when she threw him away, Mao Mao happily shared it with Xu He.
"We'll have osmanthus cake to eat later. My second brother said he'd give me a few extra pieces so we can share them."
Seeing the joyful swaying of its cattail stalk, Xuhe thought he had obtained some incredible treasure.
The result was just a piece of osmanthus cake? After politely thanking them...
He then ran to the stream to continue his cultivation, and Mao Mao didn't slack off either.
They trotted over to it and planted their roots there. Qin Luo and Wu Hua then roasted the horse meat.
The aroma wafted from afar, and the little ones all circled around the oven pan.
It seems that as long as you keep watching it, the meat will cook faster.
Qin Luo put the other ingredients into the pot one by one, and steam escaped from the gaps in the steamer.
The unique sweet aroma of osmanthus cake filled the entire kitchen.
When Qin Luo announced that the osmanthus cake was ready and could be taken out of the pot...
Four little heads immediately crowded around, their eyes sparkling as they stared.
Qin Luo first gave each of them a piece of the steaming hot osmanthus cake.
Then Wu Hua brought some food to Xu He and Maomao.
Once the horse meat was roasted, we officially started eating.
Everyone sat together, including Xuhe and Maomao, who had not yet taken human form.
At this moment, the afterglow of the setting sun and the aroma of food...
And the deep kinship and friendship between them.
This beautiful memory will forever be etched in their minds.
Completely forgetting about Daidai and Qin Jia, who were still in the inn.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, they fell into a deep, carefree sleep.
It wasn't until late the next day, when the sun was high in the sky, that Qin Luo led the four little ones out of the space.
As soon as I came out, I heard Daidai and Qin Jia arguing with other people.
Hearing the loud banging on the door, Qin Luo immediately opened it.
They saw that Daidai and Qin Jia were blocking the door tightly, while four constables were leering at them.
Qin Luo pulled the two behind him, glaring angrily at the constables.
"What are you trying to do in broad daylight?"
The constables saw that she showed no fear, and the shopkeeper added that she came from the capital.
Having already made up his mind, the leader stepped forward.
"We have come under orders to ask the two young ladies of Gongshan to go to the yamen."
Qin Luo immediately guessed that it was the head of the Shi Sun family who was behind it.
"What have we done?"
The yamen runners dared not reveal the truth about the corpse hidden in the Canyue Tower in front of the people.
Only verbal hints
"Miss Gongshan, you don't need to ask any more questions. You'll find out when you get there. The magistrate and the head of the Shisun family are waiting for you!"
The constant use of "you" sounds polite, but thinking back to what just happened...
Seeing the disgusted looks they gave Daidai and Qin Jia, Qin Luo felt a surge of anger.
"Oh, if you don't explain clearly, how am I supposed to know what they're waiting for me for? The laws of Xiyou Kingdom clearly state that innocent people are not required to accept any summons."
The constable knew that she was avenging the two men from earlier.
Knowing he was in the wrong, the constable bowed and apologized to Daidai and Qin Jia.
"Gentlemen of Gongshan, we were just being frivolous. We hope you will not hold it against us uncouth men."
Qin Jia glared fiercely at the group; if he hadn't been so easily stopped...
He had already stirred up a hornet's nest among these people, while Daidai was holding Qin Jia by the arm.
He patted his back to help him breathe.
"Knowing full well that he's frivolous, yet still insisting on showing it off in front of everyone, it's utterly disgusting!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the four little ones immediately chimed in.
"Yes, I feel nauseous, I feel nauseous..."
"It's not just nausea, it should be dragged away and whipped."
"Yes, beat them to death."
"Smack, smack, smack this shameless bastard to pieces..."
After they finished speaking, the previously quiet onlookers...
Someone couldn't help but laugh out loud, and then laughter rose and fell in waves.
Even outside the inn, you could hear the yamen runners being laughed at by a group of toddlers.
They all blushed with embarrassment, due to Qin Luo and the others' ambiguous identities.
They dared not get angry, and could only plead in a humble voice.
"You've all had your say, now could you please come with us?"
Qin Luo didn't intend to make things too difficult on the surface, and was just about to say a few words to Dai Dai.
