Qin Luo took out a teleportation talisman and walked up to it.
"Go to the Heavenly Dao."
The loach looked completely puzzled.
"Why? None of you went, and I don't want to go either..."
Wu Hua patted its body and explained
“We have a mission from Heaven, and this mission concerns the small beasts that have wandered into this world. I must go find them.”
Upon hearing that they were looking for a beast, the chubby fish visibly became excited.
"I can go with you!"
The group remained silent, staring intently at its enormous body.
The loach instantly understood their meaning and sadly lowered its head.
Wu Hua didn't want it to be sad, so she gently comforted it.
“It’s not that we don’t want you to go, but your physique is special. There are countless people from other realms who want your flesh and blood. If you stay with us for a long time, you will inevitably be targeted by them.”
The loach also understood that its constitution was incompatible with that of outsiders.
Not only is it highly nourishing, but it is also an excellent ingredient for alchemy and healing.
This is also why it has been hiding at the bottom of the lake, afraid to show its true form.
Wu Hua's words were sincere, and her concern was genuine.
The loach no longer wanted to travel with them, but it remained wary of their destination.
"What does the Heavenly Dao look like? If I go there, how will it help the Beast Realm's return?"
Wu Hua had never thought about this question, always believing that the fact that Heaven was willing to take them in was already an act of mercy.
How could anyone possibly consider what benefits being taken in would bring to the beast realm?
Just as he was wondering how to answer, Qin Luo stepped forward.
"First of all, there are many small beasts at the Heavenly Dao's place, which were all sent there by me and Zai Zai. Secondly, by following him, I can learn a lot and know the situation in the beast realm firsthand."
After she finished speaking, the loach did not hesitate any longer.
"Then hurry up and send me there. The first thing I do after receiving the package is to go back and find my people."
After Qin Luo nodded, he turned to look at Wu Hua and Pineapple.
"Do you two have anything else to say?"
The two shook their heads.
"No."
After finishing speaking, Qin Luo threw the teleportation talisman into the air.
Then the carp disappeared from the spot, by sheer coincidence.
Everything was witnessed by the old boatwoman who returned, and by the passengers on that boat.
Wu Hua reached out and lifted Maomao out.
"Put out some fog, just enough to obscure the view."
Upon hearing this, Mao Mao did as instructed without even asking any questions.
After the fog obscured their figures, Qin Luo drove the carriage out.
The little ones jumped onto the carriage, and then it sped away.
The old boatwoman was left dumbfounded, along with a boatload of passengers who thought they were seeing things.
Two days later, the group finally arrived outside Pingru City.
This city is nestled against mountains and beside water, surrounded by an atmosphere of peace and tranquility.
Wu Hua and Pineapple watched from afar in the carriage, both feeling refreshed and relaxed.
The vines and seedlings also have an urge to return to their original form and take root in the soil.
Qin Luo, noticing the leaves faintly visible on their bodies, immediately became more alert.
"What's going on? Could it be that there are demon hunters in this city? But neither of you are demons."
The two of them didn't know what was going on, but upon seeing the city, they wanted to transform into their true forms.
It seemed that only in this way could it grow stronger; the seedling even transformed its legs into tree roots.
"Auntie, I really want to settle down at the city gate."
"Luo Luo, I also want to cling to the city wall."
Qin Luo didn't understand what was going on and was getting anxious.
Wu Hua patted her arm, signaling her to relax.
He then channeled two streams of energy into the bodies of Tengteng and Yamiao.
Gradually, the leaves on both of them disappeared, and the seedling's legs returned to normal.
"Beneath this city wall lies a magical artifact of the Shennong clan, which will make plants want to get close to it."
Qin Luo breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that it would not harm them.
"I was so scared! I thought they'd run into some kind of nemesis."
"No, the vines are not from this world, so there will be no antagonistic elements here. The seedlings are Buddhist trees, which can overcome all demons and evil spirits. They have no natural enemies in the human world."
"That would be perfect. By the way, are Shennong's magical artifacts very powerful?"
After she finished asking, the other three little ones all looked at Wu Hua very seriously.
Their eyes were filled with longing for the treasure; Wu Hua saw their eager expressions.
He then transformed into a little teacher and began explaining things to them.
"Shennong was an ancient god who, with the body of a mortal, found food for the people and saved countless lives in this world. Naturally, their magical artifacts are powerful."
Qin Luo and the other children listened with great admiration.
"Wow~"
"The Shennong clan made plows and hoes, cultivated the five grains, tasted all kinds of herbs, relieved the people's illnesses, established markets at midday, pioneered the market, processed hemp into cloth, and made clothes..."
“I know, I know, they also surveyed the land to build houses, constructed villages, made pottery and utensils, strung silk into strings, observed the heavens to control the elements, and were the ancestors of humankind.”
After Qin Luo finished speaking, not only Tengteng and the others, but even Wu Hua was stunned.
"You've finally figured it out? When did this happen? You actually know so much?"
Qin Luo rolled her eyes at him.
"What does it mean to have an epiphany? I've always had an epiphany; I learned about these things back in elementary school."
Wu Hua also retaliated without hesitation.
"What's the use? With such a good education, you still didn't get into your ideal university."
Qin Luo…
Her hand, pointing at Wu Hua, trembled uncontrollably.
"Then why don't you go take the imperial examination and become the top scholar?"
"Tch, do you think I don't know how difficult the imperial examinations are? Even university students in your world can't compare to the candidates here, yet you dare to compare yourself to the top scholar?"
