Hazi immediately shouted.
"No, no, no, I am still of some use to humans. I can loosen the soil, and I am good for the soil."
Ye Qianqian pouted and said.
"This is nothing special. There are gardeners in the palace who can make the soil very fertile. Of course, you're not the only earthworm in the palace. There are other earthworms that can loosen the soil in the imperial garden. So, keeping you around is really of no value."
Sai Zhuo immediately said.
"That's not necessarily true. Their only value is to be taken away by the two of us and tortured properly."
As he spoke, Sai Zhuo picked up his chopsticks.
"Look, I've already brought the chopsticks over. While they're still easy to grab, let's quickly pick them up and put them together to fatten them up. Once they're plump, we can cut them up directly. Just thinking about it is a bit exciting."
Hazi struggled to shout.
"You are abusing small animals!"
Ye Qianqian pouted.
“What kind of little animal are you? I, Ye Qianqian, would never torture innocent little animals. But you, Hazi, you and Bazhuo, you are not innocent. You want to kill all your people. Tell me, shouldn’t you be torn to pieces?”
Hazi and Bazhuo immediately fell silent.
Ba Zhuo said weakly.
"Even so, that was in our past life, and it has nothing to do with us in this life."
Ye Qianqian said with a frown.
"If you really have no relation whatsoever, then how did you end up being reincarnated as earthworms? In the end, it's because you two committed heinous crimes and deserve to die!"
Then Ye Qianqian picked up her chopsticks and placed Hazi and Bazhuo into a flowerpot filled with soil.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely fatten you two up properly!"
"Of course, to prevent you two from escaping, I will use lampshades to trap you both. This will ensure that you don't die and that you are kept here. See how clever I am, Ye Qianqian? I have to admire my own wisdom."
Sai Zhuo immediately gave Ye Qianqian a thumbs up.
"Yes, I admire your wisdom now."
that's all.
Bazhuo and Hazi were placed on the soil and then covered by a lampshade.
Hazi and Bazhuo tried to escape from inside the lampshade, but Ye Qianqian buried it very deep, which made it impossible for them to get out.
Ye Qianqian and Sai Zhuo watched them from outside.
A sly smile appeared on his face.
"Hehehe."
Hazi shouted angrily.
"Ye Qianqian, Sai Zhuo, what you two are doing is a sin. When you die, the King of Hell will make you reincarnate into the animal realm, and you'll both become earthworms, to be tortured like this!"
Ye Qianqian shrugged.
"What we get reincarnated as isn't up to you! You're just a mere earthworm, do you think you can tell the King of Hell what to do?!"
Sai Zhuo also said something indifferently.
"The saying goes, 'A wrong must be avenged, and a grudge must be settled.' You harmed my people, so the torture I'm in inflicting on you is considered lenient!"
"So, you should just accept your fate obediently, hehehe."
Bazhuo suddenly thought of something.
"I almost forgot, Ye Qianqian is a fairy, there is no such thing as reincarnation, she should be immortal."
"Sai Zhuo, do you know? Ye Qianqian isn't human at all; she's a fairy. If one day she wants to use her magic to harm you, it would be an easy thing for her!"
Of course, Cangyun didn't say this out loud.
Sai Zhuo, however, became curious.
"Master Cangyun, what did she just say?"
Cangyun shook his head.
"It didn't say anything."
"Oh!" Sai Zhuo didn't take it seriously.
She has always had great faith in Master Cangyun.
Cang Yun and Ye Qianqian exchanged a knowing glance.
Oh my, my dear martial uncle, thank you so much!
Thankfully, you helped me keep it a secret, and thankfully, Cyclo can't understand animal speech, otherwise, my identity would be exposed!
Wait a minute, Saizhuo grew up on the grasslands. Is it possible that she can actually understand animal speech?
Could it be that they're pretending not to understand? If that's the case, then I've become a laughing stock!
then.
Ye Qianqian asked Cangyun in a low voice.
Can Cyclone hear earthworms talking?
Cangyun shook his head.
"Of course you can't hear it."
Ye Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief.
He deliberately asked Sai Zhuo.
“Saizhuo, you grew up on the grasslands, so can’t you communicate with animals?”
Saizhuo said.
"I can only communicate with horses, cows, and sheep. As for other animals, I really can't understand what they're saying."
"Oh!" Ye Qianqian relaxed.
"Alright, let's take them both with us."
Ye Qianqian and Sai Zhuo quickly took Hazi and Bazhuo away.
After resting like this for two days...
Hazi and Bazhuo looked visibly wilted.
Sai Zhuo was stunned.
How could this happen?
"Of course, it's because they know their death is imminent, but they don't know exactly when. This despair of knowing they will die but not knowing when will torment them to the point of mental breakdown. Naturally, after a long time, they become listless."
"What if we see them dead before we even cut them in half?"
Ye Qianqian thought for a moment.
"No, if they were truly on the verge of death, then we could simply seek help from Master Cangyun."
"Master Cangyun must have a way to make them full of life!"
Sai Zhuo nodded.
"Too."
However, Cyclo did not notice.
Ye Qianqian secretly cast a spell.
The two earthworms, which had been listless, suddenly became very energetic.
While Cyclone was out.
Ye Qianqian said something on purpose.
"Don't worry, I won't let you die. I've already cast a spell on you, and I can absolutely guarantee that you'll live well."
"I think by tomorrow, you two will be plump again, and that's when I'll start to torture you properly!"
Don't get your hopes up too high!
