It was evening.
A rare, colorful sunset appeared in the sky above Turtle Mountain.
When Qin Shou returned, he saw Yi Cheng and the others standing on the cliff with their eyes darting around. He asked Da Mei what had happened, and Da Mei hesitated for a moment before answering truthfully.
"Hmph, serves you right. You lot are not allowed to eat for the next three days."
Qin Shou reprimanded him with a stern face.
Upon hearing this, Yi Cheng pouted and dared not speak.
"Master, it's not my fault, Junior Sister. I failed to catch the snake and got bitten by it."
Yuanbao had been bitten on the belly by a poisonous snake, but thanks to the healing power of a Nascent Soul Realm expert, the venom had been completely cleared. After resting inside for a while, he came running out again, full of energy, and tugged at Qin Shou's sleeve pitifully, saying:
"Master, Little Martial Aunt loves to eat. If you don't feed her, her big belly will go hungry, and she won't be so majestic."
Qin Shou looked at the silly, naive little fat boy and was speechless.
You follow your junior aunt around every day. If it weren't for your master watching over you, you would have been killed eight hundred times over by now. And yet you still happily follow Yi Cheng around every day.
"Then let them go hungry for two days."
Qin Shou said irritably.
"And you, little Yuanbao, if you get hurt again, I'll starve your little aunt and not give her any food."
Qin Shou pretended to be fierce and said.
"ah! "
Upon hearing this, Little Yuanbao immediately waved his little hands repeatedly, "No, Grandmaster! To ensure my junior aunt has food to eat every day, I won't get hurt again."
"That's for the best."
Qin Shou patted Xiao Yuanbao's head to comfort her, then carried the sleeping little girl into the room, placed her on the bed, checked her body to make sure there was nothing wrong, covered her with a blanket, and quietly left the room.
"Da Mei, are you still studying?"
Qin Shou went outside and saw Da Mei lying under a tree drawing.
Da Mei looked up, nodded her little head, and smiled, "Master, the sunset today is so beautiful! I want to paint it."
Qin Shou looked up at the sky. Golden yellow, romantic pink, glass-like white, ocean-like blue, gentle purple, and gorgeous red... They were like ribbons or puzzle pieces, using the clouds as a medium to piece together a series of beautiful and fantastical scenes on the horizon.
Even the pools on the mountaintop reflected a kaleidoscope of colors.
"The sunset today was truly beautiful!"
"It's so beautiful it almost seems unreal."
Qin Shou nodded and murmured.
Then, his gaze stretched endlessly along the sea of clouds...
With the sky and earth vast and the sea of clouds stretching for thousands of miles, anyone who witnesses such a sunset will feel as if they themselves are part of a painting.
"Master, you just brought back a little girl. Who is she?"
The great beauty has painted the rainbow, and now she sets aside her brush and ink to ask a question.
"Her name... should be Luo Yunyan."
Qin Shou paused for a moment, then said.
Before Luo Xin'er died, she left a message in the little girl's mind.
"From now on, your surname will not be Nangong, but Luo, the Luo of Luoshui Sect. Your name will be Luo Yunyan. You will have nothing to do with anyone or anything in this world. You will simply be my daughter, Luo Xin'er."
Your mother wishes you a life of freedom and peace...
"Luo, Yun, Yan."
Da Mei muttered each word carefully, then spread out a sheet of Xuan paper and wrote the three characters on it.
"Master, why did she come here?"
Da Mei asked again.
"Her mother is a friend of your sister Wen's. She's gone to a very, very far place and asked me to look after her daughter."
"Soon, to a very far place..."
Da Mei tilted her head and asked, "Master, is her mother dead?"
"Yes." Qin Shou nodded.
"What about her other relatives?"
"She has no family left."
"Oh! Is she that pitiful!"
Da Mei's eyes instantly welled up with tears.
She was emotionally sensitive; she was a sentimental little koi fish. Luo Yunyan's experiences reminded her of her own father and mother.
But the only difference is that she also has a younger sister. Later, she met her master, Yi Cheng, Black Rabbit, Sister Wen, Grandpa Changsheng... They were all very good to her and her sister, very, very good.
But this little girl, who looked about the same height as her, had no relatives left.
"Da Mei, why are you crying?"
Qin Shou chuckled, then reached out his large hand and gently wiped away the tears welling up in Da Mei's eyes.
"No, Master, I just feel sorry for this little sister."
Da Mei tilted her head back, a hint of sadness on her face.
Then she looked at her younger sister, who was standing on the edge of the cliff, swaying from side to side on tiptoe and laughing foolishly. She ran over and hugged the little fat boy's head, rubbing it.
"Sister, sister, what's wrong?"
The chubby boy tilted his head back and asked.
"nothing. "
Da Mei pouted and said, "Little sister, you have to be obedient from now on, okay?"
"Father and Mother are both gone. I'm the older sister, so you have to listen to me. Because I'm the one who loves you most in this world, and I'll only ever want what's best for you, never harm you, understand?"
As Da Mei spoke, her little face became serious.
"Okay, sis, I've always listened to you, haven't I?"
The chubby boy tilted his head back innocently and said...
"Really? Then next time you eat, can you please not be picky about your food and eat more leafy greens and carrots?"
Da Mei held Xiao Pang's head and swayed her body from side to side as she asked.
"That won't work."
The chubby boy pouted, "Sister, I won't be cute if I don't eat enough. You know, compared to Yicheng, I can't beat her in anything except cuteness."
"Hmph, but you just said you'd listen to me."
"Then, sister, if you let me eat more meat, I'll do as you say."
"Hmph hmph hmph hmph... Serves you right for disobeying your sister! Watch me tickle you a hundred times, hahahaha..."
"Hehehe... giggle... Sister, sister, it tickles so much! Don't tickle me, instead tickle Yicheng, okay...?"
Little Fatty ran around laughing, trying to avoid Da Mei's tickling.
"Oh no, I'm going to scratch you, scratch you, you greedy and disobedient little koi!"
"Hmph, sister, I'm the King of Koi, and my cultivation level is even higher than yours!"
Little Fatty stopped running, put his hands on his hips, jumped onto a rock, raised his chin, and looked down at Da Mei with a disdainful gaze.
"Hmph, so you're more powerful, huh? I'm telling you to come down, are you coming down or not?"
Da Mei pointed her little finger at the ground, put her hands on her hips, and snorted coldly.
"I...I won't go."
"If you don't get off, I'm going to get angry!"
"Then...then I'll go."
...
"Hey. "
Little Fatty hopped and jumped right in front of Da Mei, and then Da Mei chased after him and tickled him.
Beneath the vibrant colors of the sunset, laughter and cheerful voices filled the small courtyard atop the hill...
