evening.
Snow fell again on the mountaintop.
The main room was brightly lit by candles, and the long dining table was laden with freshly cooked, delicious dishes, steaming hot.
Even during meals, the little ones were constantly playing and fooling around, filling the air with laughter.
"Master, the goose built so many snowmen today!"
"Oh, that's really impressive."
"Hey, hey, hey... Da Mei, shall we all go build a snowman tomorrow?"
"Okay, I like building snowmen. I want to build a snowman that's as pretty as me."
"Hehehe, sister, can you build a little snowman as cute as me?"
"No problem, my sister is really good at building snowmen."
"Squeak, Da Mei, can you build a snowman as black as me?"
"Well........"
Da Mei was speechless.
Black Rabbit was watching with an expectant look on its face.
"Hahaha....... "
Seeing this, Qin Shou, who was sitting in the main seat, laughed heartily.
......
After dinner.
The hilltop was somewhat dark.
Several lanterns hung under the eaves outside the house, their bright candlelight flickering inside, illuminating a patch of light.
Several tiny creatures lay in a neat row, resting their little heads on the railing, listlessly counting the snowflakes that passed under the lanterns.
They were counting each and every one of them with utmost seriousness.
"Sister, how many pieces have you counted?"
"Three hundred and eighty-seven pieces."
"Wow! You're so amazing, sister! I only counted to thirty-something."
"Squeak, squeak, I, Grandpa Rabbit, have counted to sixty-five pieces already."
The black rabbit, its head pressed against the railing, happily rolled around in the corridor.
"Hmph, they've already counted over five hundred pieces of meat."
Yi Cheng leaned her chubby little face against the railing, smiling smugly, her little eyes seemingly filled with the light of wisdom.
Upon hearing this, Little Fatty immediately stood up and retorted, "Nonsense, Yi Cheng, you can only count to 99. How could you possibly count more than your sister?"
"Sister, Yicheng is lying. She's not a good child."
"Goose...goose...you're slandering a goose..."
Yi Cheng blushed with anger and immediately started arguing with Xiao Pang.
As they argued, they started hitting each other. The little belly met the big belly, and the little belly was not only completely defeated, but was also pushed back step by step until it fell in the yard and got a mouthful of snow.
"Waaaah~~, sister, Yi Cheng bullied me."
Little Fatty happily snuggled into Da Mei's arms and cried, saying she wouldn't play with Yi Cheng tomorrow, and if Yi Cheng didn't apologize, she wouldn't play with him the day after tomorrow either.
This time, Black Rabbit sided with Little Fatty, saying that it was impossible for Orange to count more than Big Beauty.
Qin Shou watched from the side. The little boat of friendship on this mountaintop had capsized tens of thousands of times, but each time it would only last for twelve hours before it was fine again.
"The evening sky threatens snow, but alas, there is no one to share a drink with me tonight."
Qin Shou picked up a wine cup, smiled, then drank it all in one gulp. He then leisurely stood up and called out:
"Alright, Yi Cheng, Little Fatty, let's play a game."
Upon hearing about playing games, Little Fatty immediately stopped crying, wiped away his tears, and ran to Qin Shou, asking, "Master, what game do we want to play?"
“Let’s play snowball throwing,” Qin Shou replied.
"Okay, but I don't want to be in a group with Yi Cheng this time. She's too clumsy. I want to be in a group with my sister." The chubby boy said angrily, hands on his hips, "And I don't want to be in a group with Yi Cheng anymore, hmph."
"Hmph, then the goose won't be paired with you anymore; the goose wants to be paired with Master."
Yi Cheng, with her big belly sticking out, ran up to Qin Shou, head held high, grabbed Qin Shou's arm and shook it, asking, "Master, tell me, isn't it great? Geese are amazing at throwing snowballs!"
Qin Shou patted her little head and laughed, "Today we won't throw this snowball, we'll throw that snowball."
Qin Shou raised his hand and pointed to the figure hanging under the old mulberry tree in the distance, which was almost completely naked.
"You throw snowballs at him, and Da Mei will be the referee. Whoever hits him the most times will get an extra pretty little dress as a New Year's reward."
"Huh? Master, isn't it wrong for us to hit people?"
Da Mei said with some worry.
Qin Shou replied, "He's a bad guy; he even brought men to kill me."
"ah! "
Upon hearing this, Da Mei immediately panicked, hands on her hips, and fiercely ordered, "Sister, quickly smash him!"
"Okay, sister."
Upon receiving his sister's order, Little Fatty ran to the courtyard as if he had received a royal decree. He grabbed a large basin, scooped up a large basin of snow, and rolled it into small snowballs, which he then threw at Zhou Xiansheng.
Whoosh—biu~
Whoosh—biu~
Whoosh—biu~
Poor, useless little fat boy, he tried to hit several targets, but missed every single one.
"Waaah~, sister, I didn't hit a single one."
Little Fatty turned around and snuggled into Da Mei's arms, tilting his little head up and pouting at her with a wronged expression.
"Hey hey hey... Little Fatty, you're so useless! Watch the goose, hee hee..."
Yi Cheng loudly mocked Xiao Pang, his chubby little hands reaching into the basin to try and knead a big snowball.
Seeing this, Little Fatty immediately stepped forward to protect his snow basin, pouting, "Yi Cheng, this is snow I dug up! I haven't forgiven you yet, you can't use it!"
Upon hearing this, Yi Cheng immediately got angry, grabbing her chubby waist and yelling, "Hmph, if you won't give it to me, then don't! You stingy little fatty, go dig it yourself, the goose will dig up even more than the tender one!"
Then he turned and ran to the kitchen, grabbed a large bucket, and ran into the yard to shovel snow with a small shovel.
"Wow~, sister, Yi Cheng just spat on me!"
Little Fatty snuggled into Big Beauty's arms again to complain.
Da Mei could only gently comfort her younger sister, who was both incompetent and loved to play.
"Ha ha.... "
Soon, Yi Cheng ran under the eaves with a big bucket of snow, rolled a small snowball, squinted her little eyes, aimed at Zhou Xiansheng under the tree in the distance, leaned back, and threw the snowball with a "biu~".
Bang--
The snowball hit Zhou Xiansheng squarely on the nose.
"Hehehe... Ah hehehehe..."
"Master, Master, look! The goose hit that bad guy right away!"
Yi Cheng happily hopped around under the eaves, looking as happy as if she had won a thousand buckets of family-sized food.
"Squeak, squeak, I'm coming too!"
"Roar! Ro ...
Black Rabbit was also excited, her face flushed and her neck thick, hopping and skipping behind Orange.
"Sister, why can't I hit it?"
The chubby boy, with his feet crooked, swayed back and forth in Da Mei's arms, humming and moaning.
Da Mei wrapped her arms around Xiao Pang's tummy, picked him up, and rocked him gently, comforting him, "Don't be discouraged, little sister. Try again; you'll definitely hit it this time."
"Really, sister?"
Little Fatty stared at Big Beauty with wide eyes.
"Really? When have I ever lied to you?"
"Okay, sister."
Little Fatty wriggled out of Da Mei's arms and ran off to knead snowballs again.
Da Mei ran into the house and secretly made a wish on the wishing pearl.
"I pray to our great ancestors that my sister's snowball will hit........."
Soon, the little fat boy's joyful cheers came from outside.
"Giggle, sister, sister, look! I really hit it!"
Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—
Soon, the outside was covered with small snowballs.
Zhou Xiansheng stared blankly at the scene, not even knowing how he felt.
He, a powerful being at the half-step Integration stage and the number one sword prodigy of the younger generation in Beiju Luzhou, who had fought countless powerful enemies throughout his life, was now being humiliated in this way by a few little demons and a chubby human girl in the Nascent Soul stage.
Don't they know what reverence is?!
"Goose, goose, goose, Master! The geese have hit so many!"
"Roar! My great rabbit has hit so many!"
"Hmph, sister, I'm a 100% hit rate now! Even combined, Orange and Black Rabbit don't score as many as I do!"
Little Fatty is now in high spirits, throwing snowballs haphazardly, but each one manages to hit its target by a curve. Orange and Black Rabbit exclaim in amazement, thinking Little Fatty is amazing tonight, and even ask her for tips.
"Giggle giggle..."
The chubby kid, who's bad at games but loves to have fun, finally had his moment of glory tonight.
"Damn it, you chubby little black guy, where are you throwing this?"
At this moment, Zhou Xiansheng suddenly roared, causing the wind and snow in the courtyard to howl like thunder.
That darn little black rabbit spirit always widens its eyes and aims at my red underwear, smashing it down. It doesn't do much damage, but it's extremely humiliating.
"Squeak, squeak."
Black Rabbit was so frightened that it immediately hid behind Orange.
"Yi Cheng, he yelled at me."
"Ah~~, you dare to yell at the black rabbit, you'll get pooped on by the goose!"
Yi Cheng grabbed a small shovel from the side and ran to the tree, where she started snapping photos of Zhou Xiansheng.
"Ah~~, oh~~, little chubby girl, where are you taking pictures?!"
"Holy crap! That's terrifying force!!!"
"Stop! Stop it now!"
"Uncle, Uncle Qin, please help me, save me!!!"
Zhou Xiansheng cried.
Although his cultivation was restricted by the Immortal Binding Rope, his physical body was still at the half-step Integration stage. However, this chubby girl was too rough with her hands, and his little brother was about to swell up.
"Yi Cheng, that's enough, you fouled."
In the end, it was Qin Shou who walked to the tree and pulled Yi Cheng back.
Black Rabbit followed Qin Beast, and when Qin Beast pulled Yi Cheng down to the eaves, it suddenly jumped out and kicked Zhou Xiansheng hard in the groin.
After kicking, he immediately jumped away as if by reflex and ran to the eaves.
"Hmph, serves you right for being so rude to your grandpa Rabbit."
Black Rabbit stood tall under the eaves, arrogantly provoking the situation.
Then they found small stones, wrapped them in snowflakes, and threw them at Zhou Xiansheng.
"Holy crap..."
This day was the most speechless and humiliating day Zhou Xiansheng had ever experienced.
It was all because he encountered a cunning beast and a group of fearless little creatures.
What's even more despicable is that the beast was holding up the photo stone and taking a picture.
If this scene were published in the Heavenly Secrets Gazette, would Zhou Xiansheng's reputation be ruined?
After playing for more than half an hour, the chubby guy, who seemed to be possessed by a god, finally won.
This was the first time our "Vegetable Goddess" had won, so Qin Shou solemnly presented her with an award.
"Alright, Yi Cheng, it's getting late, you guys should go to sleep."
"I don't want to, I want to play more."
Little Fatty shouted loudly.
"Mmm, Master, the goose isn't done yet either."
"Me too! I haven't had enough fun yet."
Yi Cheng and Hei Tu were also in high spirits.
"Alright, let's play for another half an hour. After that, go to sleep quickly. We'll play something even more fun tomorrow."
"?*??(ˊwˋ*)??*?[Oh yeah!] Master is such a good person!"
Little Fatty was the first to cheer.
Hearing this from under the tree in the distance, Zhou Xiansheng silently wept and wailed, "No! Waaah! ┭┮﹏┭┮"
That night, the hilltop was filled with both laughter and howls.
For the first time, the number one prodigy of Beiju Luzhou redefined the meaning of the phrase "the wickedness of the human heart".
......
The snow stopped the next day.
As dawn broke, a large sun slowly rose from the east, casting golden rays upon the sky.
The little ones played too late yesterday and are still asleep. Normally, they would have already rushed out of the room to explore the mountain.
Zhou Xiansheng was still hanging under the mulberry tree; he hadn't slept all night.
In fact, at his level, he had long forgotten what sleep was.
"Little Sheng, did you have a good time as a guest on your uncle's mountain last night?"
"Happy." ^▼^
Zhou Xiansheng forced a smile.
Qin Shou nodded. "As long as you're happy. Otherwise, next time you see your uncle, he'll think I didn't treat you well."
"Come on, get down."
Qin Shou put Zhou Xiansheng down.
"Thank you, Uncle Qin."
Zhou Xiansheng looked deeply moved.
"You're welcome! We'll play a new game today."
Qin Shou patted Zhou Xiansheng on the shoulder, "Don't panic, it's nothing serious, just hang in there."
"No...maybe not."
Zhou Xiansheng's legs trembled, and his expression was even worse than if he were crying.
"Ah, Little Saint, to be honest, your uncle has been cultivating in seclusion on the mountain these past few years, and it's been incredibly boring. Fortunately, you're sensible and filial, and you've come all this way to visit your uncle, so please don't refuse."
Then, Qin Shou grabbed one end of the Immortal Binding Rope and dragged Zhou Xiansheng slowly down the mountain. They first strolled around the mountaintop for a while.
Zhou Xiansheng stared blankly at the sky.
He vowed that if he could leave this time, he would never come back here again.
Soon, Qin Shou found a good spot on a small hill not far from the main peak, aiming it directly at the slingshot on the cliff edge.
Qin Shou cut down two incredibly thick trees to make a cross, and tied Zhou Xiansheng to it.
"Amen...May the Lord bless you!"
After Qin Shou had done all this, he put his hands together and bowed devoutly to Zhou Xiansheng.
"No, Uncle Qin, you're making me anxious."
"What game do you want to play? Put me down, and I'll cooperate, okay?"
"If you don't have enough people, you can let my uncle out and have him play with you too..."
Zhou Xiansheng pleaded.
He swore that this was the first time in his life he had made such a plea.
Because the person in front of you is pulling down their underwear.
"Sigh, never mind, it's too small. Let's keep it covered. After all, there are other children on the mountain, and it might cause them to get needle marks if we look at it. Amen."
Qin Shou turned and went back up the mountain.
Just as they arrived at the top of the mountain, they saw a chubby little girl running out of the house with a panicked expression.
"Master, something terrible has happened! A thief stole Goose's snowman yesterday!"
