Chapter 161 - Rare Spirit Herbs & Ferocious Spotted Tiger



"This is Qiaoqiao, Grandpa Tu. Didn't I tell you before?"

Jun Qi said simply.

When Tu Da saw Jun Qi's naive appearance, he was furious. How could he have raised someone so stupid?

He frowned, raised his paw, and gave him another taste of his own medicine, this time with much more force than before.

"Awooo! Grandpa Earth, why did you hit me?"

Jun Qi covered his forehead with both hands, looking at Tu Da in confusion. He thought the other guy had a bad memory; he had said all these things before, how could he have forgotten so quickly?

Tu Da twitched his lips and said, "Of course I know that, but what's your opinion? Living together like this, doing everything together?"

Jun Qi nodded and said matter-of-factly, "Otherwise what? I've sacrificed so much, of course we have to be together."

This sacrifice refers to not eating Xu Qiaoqiao anymore. Tu Da understands what Jun Qi means by this, which is why he doesn't understand what Jun Qi is trying to say: Why not eat her sooner? Why save her until now, and why is he being so good to her?

He was certain that this guy treated that spirit herb better than he treated himself.

"Do you know what it means to be together? Do you want the other person to be your partner?" Tu Da asked again, catching Jun Qi off guard.

"A partner? Just like my father and mother?" Jun Qi pondered, scratching behind his ear with his hand, his face showing obvious struggle. Clearly, he hadn't even considered this question himself.

Upon seeing this, Tu Da immediately understood. He straightened up, lightly jumped over Jun Qi's head, and landed on the stone bed. He calmly licked his paws, his tail curling into a hook shape. He looked quite nonchalant, but his attention never left Jun Qi.

Jun Qi was struggling with his decision, but he wasn't in a hurry.

"OK."

After a long silence, Jun Qi gave his answer, which was quite unexpected, but Tu Da found it to be true.

However, judging from the situation, it wasn't hard for him to guess the whole story. This kid could even develop feelings for a blade of grass. Was he just naive or stupid?

"companion?"

"Yes, a partner, the kind that will have tiger cubs," Jun Qi said confidently.

If the Tu chieftain hadn't asked about this, he really wouldn't have considered the question. After all, he had lived carefree for so many years, always on his own. Except for his childhood when he was with him, he went out to find his own territory to live in after he was able to live independently.

Meeting Xu Qiaoqiao later was also by chance, and living with her was the same. In addition, they had indeed been together for so many years, and she was very good to him. She would go along with him in many things. Most importantly, she was very good at grooming!

So being partners isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Of course, besides the reasons mentioned above, there was another special reason: after making this decision, Jun Qi found himself unable to suppress a surge of joy.

He was very happy and looking forward to being with Qiaoqiao.

Tu Da looked deeply at Jun Qi and asked another question: "Do you like her?"

This was yet another area that Jun Qi had never touched before. The Tu clan elder even explained to Jun Qi what "like" meant. This time, Jun Qi didn't hesitate for as long as before. After thinking for a few seconds, he answered the question.

"I like him, Grandpa Tu, I like Qiaoqiao."

After Jun Qi spoke, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He didn't dare to look at the old Tu tribesman. He scratched his head helplessly, not knowing where to look.

"You really like him," Tu Da twitched his lips. He looked at Jun Qi's expectant little expression, raised his hand and patted Jun Qi's head. The other shook his head and responded slightly, gently rubbing against Tu Clan Elder's palm.

On the other side, Xu Qiaoqiao was still looking for books. Well, most of the books here were bamboo slips and parchment scrolls. It felt no different from the first world. Ten thousand years have passed, and there has been no progress?

I remember that world at least had paper, how come we can't find a single piece of paper now?

How come it's regressed?

Xu Qiaoqiao couldn't find the answer to this question for the time being, but that wasn't important. After all, what she wanted to find was something about Junjun, and she didn't know what it was like.

Xu Qiaoqiao frowned as she looked at the bamboo slips. There weren't many records about the wolf clan here, but Xu Qiaoqiao had found all of them. There were only five bamboo slips in total, but it had taken her quite a bit of time to find them.

She looked around and saw that everything was covered in mud. Oh well, Junjun would clean it up quickly later.

When Xu Qiaoqiao saw the dirty soil, she originally wanted to squat down to look at it, since there wasn't even a chair here, only stacks of bookshelves. But wouldn't it get damp like this?

Looking at the bookshelves, she wondered to herself, "I really don't understand the world of cultivation. There's nothing I can do; my mindset hasn't changed yet."

Xu Qiaoqiao picked up the candlestick and looked around to see if there were any other candlesticks. If she wanted to read, one lamp wouldn't be enough, and she was worried that she would go blind from reading. So Xu Qiaoqiao brought over all the candlesticks around her, and in an instant, the room became much brighter.

It didn't take Xu Qiaoqiao long to read through these bamboo slips. After reading them, she let out a long sigh, feeling a tightness in her chest and a complex mix of emotions.

"Jun Jun..." she murmured.

The bamboo slips state that after Xu Qiaoqiao's death, the wolf king quickly usurped the throne and then went to search for a way to bring the dead back to life. The reason there is a record of this is because this is also a place he once searched for.

But he found nothing.

The final outcome is unclear, but it's probably up to fate.

Xu Qiaoqiao reached out and pinched the bamboo slips, thinking to herself, "I thought the other party could live a long time..."

It's been such a long time, ten thousand years! This amount of time made Xu Qiaoqiao sigh for a long time, and she longed to see Junjun.

She didn't live long in that world either, but she'll definitely be able to stay in this world for a long time.

Xu Qiaoqiao stood up from the ground and put the bamboo slips and candlesticks back in their original positions. She also blew out the lamps.

Then several knocks sounded on the door.

Gilgamesh is here.

(Um, sorry everyone, I have something to say here. I've been writing this world really badly. Several times I've had writer's block and been stuck for hours on end. Now I basically don't know what I'm writing. I'm just writing awkwardly, and it's not very good. It's boring and just like a diary.)

So I plan to end this world sooner rather than later, probably in the next few days. The ending of this world might be abrupt, I'm sorry everyone.

Hopefully, this new world will bring a fresh start. Typing this, all with all the stumbling and struggle, is so painful, sob sob ┭┮﹏┭┮。
