In the afternoon, a light rain began to fall in the mountains, refreshing and cool, creating a very picturesque scene.
"Sigh, there's no sun today."
Several chubby little boys lay under the eaves watching the rain, their bellies bulging, looking both cute and somewhat comical.
Yi Cheng's little face looked even more distressed.
The reason he was so upset wasn't that his master wouldn't let him eat more after he had only eaten nine hundred buns that day, but that his master was punishing him by banishing him from the mountain for ten years because he had gotten into a fight.
That means I won't see my senior sister for ten years.
Hmph.
Yi Cheng pouted, blaming Si Wu for taking the goose out to fight, even though the goose didn't want to.
"Little Fatty, how about we sneak down the mountain? Hehe."
A sly smile suddenly appeared on Yi Cheng's little face.
"But the geese have to bring Da Mei along, because Da Mei knows the way. We'll go straight to Senior Sister's house and hide there so Master can't find us, goose goose goose..."
Yi Cheng became more and more proud as she talked, patting her bulging belly and laughing loudly.
She felt that she was getting smarter and smarter.
On the entire mountain, apart from my senior sister, I was the smartest kid, except for my master, who was an adult.
"Keep your voice down, I heard you."
From another corner under the eaves, the wind chimes rang softly, carrying the voice of Qin Beast.
"If you dare to run down the mountain on your own, I'll break your legs."
!!
Yi Cheng's small eyes widened suddenly as she sat up, looking around. She glanced at her master in the distance and noticed he was hiding behind a fan, not looking at her. Startled, she grabbed Black Rabbit's collar and yelled, "Black Rabbit, Master Goose told you to speak softly, don't you know that?"
"???" Qin Shou raised his eyebrows slightly, hiding his face behind the round bamboo fan. This kid is joking again.
"........." Black Rabbit blinked her big eyes. I didn't say anything. I was almost asleep while counting raindrops, and you suddenly woke me up. Even if you're the boss, you can't frame a rabbit like this. This is too much of a bullying for a rabbit.
Hmm... but I'm used to it. The more I get used to it, the better. A rabbit needs to be immune to all poisons, squeak squeak! Rise up!
"Hey? Where's Little Fatty?"
Just then, a small orange eye glanced around and realized that Little Fatty was gone.
Then they saw a little bottom sticking out in the kitchen in the distance.
"Ah, I know! Little Fatty is definitely sneaking food in the kitchen!"
"Little Fatty is so disloyal."
With a serious expression, Yi Cheng sneaked over and ran behind Xiao Pang. With a "whoosh," she bared her teeth and brandished her claws, startling Xiao Pang.
"Haha, Little Fatty, you were sneaking bites of steamed buns behind the geese's back!"
Yi Cheng laughed heartily, feeling both clever and happy to have caught Little Fatty.
When they swore brotherhood, they said they would share meals and share misfortune. Now that they've caught Little Fatty stealing food, they're being disloyal. Their next meal will be gone, and it'll be theirs. Hmph.
"I...I didn't steal any food."
The chubby boy frowned and his face turned red as he explained.
"What are you doing?"
Little Fatty was lying on the ground, while Yi Cheng was sticking out her big belly, which was almost sticking up to Little Fatty's face. The strong pressure made Little Fatty panic, and he pouted and was about to shout in a wronged tone.
Yi Cheng immediately covered her mouth with a small hand, glaring at her with fierce eyes, and said, "You're not allowed to call me Da Mei."
"Squeak!"
Just then, a golden mouse jumped out of Little Fatty's bib, with steamed bun filling still on its mouth.
The little mouse, with its round, plump belly, jumped onto the chubby boy's wrist and took a bite of the soft, white bun in his hand.
"Little Fatty, what's this?" Yi Cheng asked curiously, her little eyes wide.
"This is a little mouse, given to me by Siwu." Little Fatty picked up the treasure-hunting mouse, afraid that Yicheng would snatch it, but after thinking it over, he realized they were good friends, so he generously showed it to Yicheng.
"Yi Cheng, look how cute the little mouse is after I feed it! Hahaha, Si Wu even said this little mouse is called the Treasure-Hunting Mouse, and it can find treasures!"
"It's so cute!"
Yi Cheng poked the treasure-hunting mouse's belly with her little finger. It made a "pop" sound, and each time she poked the mouse's belly, it would make a peculiar sound, each time with a different tone. It was extremely interesting.
"Goose, goose, goose, little fat man, hurry, put the little mouse down so the geese can play together."
Yi Cheng urged.
Little Fatty put the little mouse on the ground, and the group of kids bent over and lay there in a circle, each taking turns poking the little mouse's round belly with their fingers.
During this time, Yicheng even foolishly poked her own stomach with her finger, making strange noises with each poke, making herself laugh out loud.
"Yi Cheng, shall we take the little mouse to the Great Wilderness to search for treasures next time?"
"Okay, then I'll find lots and lots of treasures to bring to my senior sister."
......
Ring ring!
The wind chimes under the eaves jingled.
Xiao Xuan poured Qin Shou a cup of tea.
After a moment's thought, he asked:
"Master, I'm right beside you, do you sense anything unusual?"
"Something's wrong? What's wrong?"
Qin Shou raised an eyebrow, then instantly became alert, straightened up, and looked at Xiao Xuan with a disgusted expression.
Holy crap!
Could this be... you know?
No way!!! No way!!!
We are master and apprentice!
Pshaw, it wouldn't be appropriate even if we weren't master and disciple!
"Uh... Master, what kind of look is that?"
"Foolish me, my disciple! Your... vision is far too grand!"
Qin Shou was very embarrassed by what he said.
Xiao Xuan, who claimed to have mastered the art of love by outrunning the White Dragon in the Waves by hundreds of times, instantly understood the hidden meaning in his master's words, and his lips twitched in astonishment.
My master... his thoughts are so dirty.
As expected of my master!
Qin Shou disagreed, sighing sadly in his heart. Indeed, every encounter between master and disciple was the beginning of a tragic fate.
It seems the only option is to initiate a castration program.
Seeing his master's increasingly dangerous and crazed gaze, Xiao Xuan suddenly sneezed and explained, "Master, that's not what I meant. I meant, since I arrived, have you noticed anything on your person... moving?"
Is it moving?
It's moving!
Qin Beast couldn't help but look down at Little Qin Beast, and immediately flew into a rage.
"You traitor, today you will suffer at least three cuts and six holes in your body!"
What a misfortune for our sect! What a misfortune for our sect!
"Ahhh~~, Master, no, that's not what I meant. The object I was referring to was a physical object, something external to me."
"Huh?" Qin Shou paused, frowning, and said, "Can you at least speak clearly? Anyone who didn't know better would think you're flirting with your master."
"Waaah~, how could I dare!" Xiao Xuan cried pitifully, covering his swollen face.
Ask anyone on the entire mountain, who doesn't know that I have the lowest status?
I usually have to be careful when joking with Xiaopang, otherwise she'll burst into tears and run to Sister Damei if she gets upset.
All things considered, only Black Rabbit could be manipulated a couple of times when Junior Sister wasn't around.
"That's what my disciple meant."
Xiao Xuan presented a fan-shaped metal block. Its material was unknown, and it even had some rust on it, as well as some dense and intricate patterns.
Qin Shou glanced at the metal block in Xiao Xuan's eyes and felt it was somewhat familiar. Then he remembered that before Yun Anran faked his death and tricked him into giving him the Enlightenment Wine, he seemed to have given him a metal block like this. At the time, he couldn't figure it out and thought that Yun Anran was just playing a trick on him.
Hmm... Where did I put it?
Qin Shou searched for a while and found an identical fan-shaped metal block, except that the runes and incomplete patterns on it were different.
"Holy crap! Master, you really have it! At first, I thought I was mistaken."
Xiao Xuan was overjoyed. He took the metal block from Qin Shou's hand and combined it with his own.
A perfect match!
When the two metal blocks came together, the runes on them flickered.
Now, looking at it as a whole, it resembles one-third of a circle.
"It looks like the head of a monster!"
Qin Shou glanced at the pattern that appeared after the two parts were combined and said, "But the structure of this skull also looks like... a map?"
"What is this?"
Qin Shou couldn't figure it out, so he asked directly.
After a moment's thought, Xiao Xuan solemnly said:
"Hmm... if I'm not mistaken, this should be the legendary Six Paths of Reincarnation Token."
