Chapter 63 Caught the Tiger
Seeing that he was silent, Jing Zhen raised his head slightly and snorted: "If you don't go, I will go back and catch it myself."
"Don't," Nan Xuan said quickly, "I can go."
Jingzhen pursed his lips and his eyes curved slightly.
Nan Xuan sighed. What kind of disciple did he accept? Other people’s disciples just served their masters by pouring tea and water and running around to serve them.
When I came to him, I became a good master who was a model of filial piety.
When he looked up, he saw Xiao Baoya walking briskly beside Yun Chenglu with her short legs.
"Brother Nan, where are we going next?" Baoya suddenly stopped and looked back at him.
Nan Xuan was startled and almost spit out a mouthful of blood: "Why did you call brother again?"
"Because you haven't helped me find the tiger and the turtle yet." Baoya looked at him seriously with her face raised. "Mom said people should keep their promises, so I can't change my words yet."
"Baoya, he's almost thirty." Jingzhen added with a cold face.
Nan Xuan covered his chest in pain. He was only twenty-six!
He doesn't want this apprentice anymore, so he offers a hundred taels of silver. Whoever wants him can take him away!
"Yeah, but he's handsome," Baoya licked her fingers, her watery eyes smiling into crescents, "Brother is the handsome one."
Seeing Jing Zhen frowning, she added: "Little Brother Jing is also very handsome, but you are younger than him, so you are Little Brother Jing."
Yun Chenglu on the side tried his best to catch up with Baoya's train of thought. He remembered that Baoya used to call the young master of the Rong family also Brother Rong?
Rong He is only eight years old, younger than Jing Zhen! Why not Xiao Rong Gege?
Could it be because Rong He is mature beyond his years and not as good-looking as Jing Zhen?
Bao Ya didn’t know what strange things were in Yun Chenglu’s mind. She only saw that Brother Xiaojing and Brother Nan seemed to have relaxed their brows.
Well, the little girl was satisfied. It seemed that what she said just now was right.
The four of them passed through the foggy bamboo forest, and the pink peach blossom forest suddenly appeared before their eyes.
When Baoya saw the peach forest, she recognized it and pulled Yun Chenglu and ran forward.
Passing through the peach forest, a white shadow suddenly pounced towards her.
"The Lonely King!"
Baoya hugged the snow wolf that pounced on her and was licked enthusiastically by it.
"Oh, it's so itchy!" Baoya giggled. If I hadn't been too forceful, she would have been knocked down.
"Aren't you afraid of me anymore?" Baoya squatted down and stroked the king's fur.
The lonely king wagged his tail happily like a big dog, and stared at her with a pair of green eyes blinking.
In fact, it is not afraid as long as the little girl doesn't drool at it.
Yun Chenglu stood behind Bao Ya, watching the lonely king rolling around in front of her begging for comfort, and subconsciously took a small step back.
This is a wolf. Isn’t Xiaobao afraid?
At this time, Jingzhen and Nanxuan also came over.
The lonely prince was still rolling around and pestering Baoya to pet his fur, and Jingzhen couldn't bear to watch it.
"My king, get up." He said with a stern face.
The lonely king looked at him, and actually covered his wolf face with his front paws, then went to Baoya pitifully for comfort.
Jingzhen: ...
He no longer has the demeanor of a wolf king.
The four people entered the courtyard, and Jingzhen fished out the big river clam he had raised from the lotus pond.
Baoya put the one she brought together with Jingzhen's, and then operated it carefully while explaining it to Jingzhen like her elder brother.
She finished the operation quickly and returned the clams with the cores planted and the two clams with their membranes cut to Jingzhen.
"Brother Xiaojing, we need to raise them separately to avoid contaminating the wound."
Jingzhen nodded: "Well, then let's not keep them in the lotus pond, just put them in a bucket."
"Okay," Baoya clapped her hands and stood up, "But, big brother said that the pearl won't grow for a while, will brother Nan be anxious?"
"Don't worry, don't worry," Nan Xuan waved his hand and smiled, "But you can take some spiritual spring water back from me, maybe it will be faster."
"Is it okay?" Baoya's big eyes sparkled.
Lingquan water, it looks so magical.
"Sure, the water in this pool is the same as the water in the Secret Cave Spiritual Spring Pool." Nan Xuan said, "When you leave later, ask Jingzhen to fill it up for you in a bamboo tube."
Baoya nodded happily.
Nan Xuan took out a bamboo pole from the small bamboo building and said to the three people, "Chestnuts are ripe now. Come with me to the back to pick chestnuts. I will make chestnut cakes for you to eat later."
Hearing that there was food to eat again, Xiao Baoya immediately became excited and raised her hands and said, "Okay, Brother Xiaojing, Second Brother, let's go play together!"
Yun Chenglu was very helpless. He felt more and more that Baoya could be kidnapped for just a piece of chestnut cake.
Nan Xuan led them around the small bamboo building, and Bao Ya was stunned again.
The hillside behind the small bamboo house is green. On one side are planted various seasonal vegetables, and on the other side are chestnut trees and jujube trees. It has everything.
"It's so nice here," she opened her mouth wide and stared at the chestnuts hanging with hairy residue on the tree in front of her, and the heavy dates on the date tree next to it, and couldn't help swallowing.
However, when it came to hitting chestnuts, only Jingzhen and Nanxuan each took a long bamboo pole to hit the chestnut tree, while Baoya and Yun Chenglu stood by and watched from a distance.
Because there is a layer of thorny green skin on its shell, it is inevitable that it will be hit if it falls.
Jingzhen and Nanxuan both had martial arts skills. They moved lightly under the chestnut tree with bamboo poles in their hands. The chestnuts that were knocked down fell to the ground. The thick-skinned king insisted on going over to roll around, but was scolded by Jingzhen.
Baoya watched as the chestnuts wrapped in green thorny shells fell to the ground. They didn't look like the chestnuts sold on the street at all.
Confused, she picked up a chestnut that had fallen at her feet and held it up to show Yun Chenglu: "Second brother, is this really edible?"
Yun Chenglu had never seen a newly ripe chestnut before, so he shook his head and said, "How about you try taking a bite?"
Baoya didn't suspect anything and stuffed the chestnuts with green shells into her mouth.
Jingzhen had just finished picking chestnuts and flew down from the tree, landing on tiptoe beside Baoya.
“Don’t eat it!”
He reached out and grasped Baoya's white and tender wrist.
How dare this silly little girl put anything in her mouth?
"Can't we eat them?" Baoya looked up at Jingzhen with a puzzled expression, "But, Brother Jing, they do look different from the sugar-roasted chestnuts sold on the street."
Jingzhen: ...
"This needs to be sun-dried for two or three days. After that, the green shell on the outside will automatically peel off, and you will see the chestnuts with brown shells that you have seen."
"Oh~" Xiao Baoya suddenly realized.
As they were talking, Jingzhen suddenly looked vigilantly towards the distance, then dropped the bamboo pole and ran over there.
"Brother Xiaojing?"
Baoya didn't know what was going on, so she ran over there too, and Yun Chenglu followed her nervously.
Nan Xuan, who was still cracking chestnuts, flew up and followed when he saw this. The lonely king roared and acted more majestically, but he followed at the end with his tail between his legs.
Jingzhen approached, his expression growing increasingly gloomy. He turned around and said to Baoya, "Don't follow me!"
Baoya was startled and stopped subconsciously.
Unexpectedly, a black shadow flashed before his eyes. It turned out to be a sturdy tiger. It suddenly jumped out from the date forest and pounced straight towards Baoya!
The three of them changed color at the same time. Nan Xuan and Jing Zhen were about to attack, but the tiger suddenly rolled its eyes and fell straight to the ground, kicking its legs!
Baoya covered her mouth with her hands in horror and stared at the tiger: "It...it's dead?"
