Although Chi Huo and the others were very envious, seeing that Lu Yulan had fallen asleep, they didn't say anything more and tacitly fell asleep as well.
When she woke up again, the sun had already set, and a thin layer of red had fallen over the entire forest. The light was becoming increasingly dim, and she could not see clearly in the shadows. Lu Yulan could only see that Xiaozhu's dark green eyes were becoming brighter and brighter, staring at her without blinking.
The effects of the anesthesia had worn off, and just as they were about to get up and check on themselves, they were jolted awake, and the sunlight shone brightly on their faces once again.
We had already passed through the deep, wide forest and now we were on a plain. The first thing we heard was extremely loud human voices. Fortunately, the decibels weren't particularly high. They were comparable to thunder, but they were deep and not shrill, so they were still within an acceptable range.
"Henry, you're back! Look at the hibiscus flowers I picked, aren't they pretty?"
"It's not pretty. Lord Henry doesn't like hibiscus flowers. They're useless."
...
Lu Yulan stopped listening to their conversation and instead got up and peered out of the basket to look around.
On the vast plain, towering and minimalist buildings are scattered randomly. Giant men and women are working, and the sounds of children talking and laughing can be heard.
Small animals roam freely among them, and they don't shy away even when they encounter giants. This is what Peach Blossom Spring is all about.
Lu Yulan had only been looking at it for a few seconds when Chi Huo stepped forward with the requests from three people.
"In a low voice, 'Miss Lan, we've already broken the anesthesia. Should we take advantage of the situation when he's not looking?'"
Just as Chi Huo finished speaking, a giant's face peered over. It was clearly a woman's face, with skin that wasn't as dark as Henry's, but had a slight sheen. Even her hair was neatly styled, and she had carefully worn a small flower.
"Henry, this is the little figure you brought back. It's so exquisite. Lady Tasha will surely love it."
"Really?"
"Of course it's true. You know best how much Lady Tasha likes you."
“That’s right, but Qiusha, these are not my prisoners. The ones behind are. These are Lord Henry’s friends, and I’m inviting them to my wedding.”
Lu Yulan clearly saw that after Henry finished speaking, Qiu Sha's smile was no longer very bright, and even stiffened for a moment, but she still spoke to Henry with a smile, and the two walked towards the back of the car.
Chi Huo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the giant leave. "Miss Lan, you scared me to death! Let's run!"
"No rush. Julie and the others haven't taken the white jade buckles off yet. Besides, we're Henry's guests, what are you afraid of?"
Chi Huo was on the verge of tears. "I... I'm afraid they'll eat me. I'm so cute."
Lu Yulan: ...
Is this child overthinking things? Judging from the way these giants live, there doesn't seem to be much smoke from their cooking fires, and the small animals don't seem afraid of them. It's all so harmonious, so these giants are probably vegetarians.
Seeing how frightened he was, Lu Yulan couldn't help but tease him, "Yeah, he's really cute. He's all skin and bones. He'd be good roasted or boiled."
Upon hearing this, Chi Huo's eyes widened.
"I don't taste good, my meat is sour."
As soon as Chi Huo finished speaking, he heard Lu Yulan and the other three people laughing, and immediately realized that he was being teased.
"Miss Lan, what time is it? Still joking?"
"Don't worry, nothing will happen. Besides, the assessment lasts for a month, so staying here might not be a bad thing."
Hahahaha.
