Just when Mu Lingjiu suspected that the other party knew her identity, Luo Luo put her hands on her hips and said proudly:
"I told you, Luo Luo will grow horns, and you still don't believe it!"
"I believe it this time." Lu Zhibai responded seriously.
Mu Lingjiu pursed her lips. It seemed that Luo Luo had taken the initiative to tell Lu Zhibai. When did their relationship become so good?
Luo Luo is a sky-devouring beast that can distinguish between good and evil and absorb luck. It will not get close to people with ulterior motives, which shows that Lu Zhibai has no ill intentions.
Mu Lingjiu invited Lu Zhibai to have supper at Taotie Restaurant, a very famous restaurant in Chu State.
Taotie Restaurant is owned by my fourth uncle.
In the evening, there will be various barbecues in the Taotie restaurant.
The hunting competition had just ended and they got a large amount of animal meat, so they got a discount.
Mu Lingjiu and Lu Zhibai went directly to the most secluded guest room in Taotie Pavilion and started barbecuing.
Mu Lingjiu had experienced a lot of hardships in his previous life, so he is also very good at barbecue.
Put the barbecue on the charcoal stove and it will soon start to sizzle with steam. Sprinkle various spices on it and the fragrance will spread instantly.
Even someone as untainted by worldly desires as Lu Zhibai couldn't help but chuckle.
Mu Lingjiu handed Lu Zhibai a skewer of grilled meat and looked at Lu Zhibai.
Lu Zhibai swallowed it under her gaze, with a hint of surprise between his eyebrows.
Mu Lingjiu was also roasting and eating at the same time. In the quiet room, there were sounds of chewing and roasting.
Lolo lay beside the stove and slept soundly, feeling very satisfied.
It's February and the weather is still a bit cold, so sleeping next to the oven is just right.
Mu Lingjiu made a small quilt for Luo Luo and happily started eating barbecue.
"Lu Zhibai, I actually want to ask another question."
"You say." Lu Zhibai put down the barbecue in his hand, took a sip of tea, and looked at Mu Lingjiu slowly.
He knew this meal would not be easy to eat.
"Why are you in a mental hospital?" Mu Lingjiu looked at Lu Zhibai with her dark eyes, "You are obviously the State Master of Chu."
"Is this question important?" Lu Zhibai asked back.
Mu Lingjiu nodded and shook his head.
"I'm just curious." Curious about what Lu Zhibai was doing.
"Curiosity kills the cat." Lu Zhibai's expression softened a lot. "Practice well."
Mu Lingjiu pursed her lips. It would have been fine if she didn't say anything, but he even implied that her cultivation was not good enough?
After all, this was Lu Zhibai's own business, so Mu Lingjiu didn't ask any more questions.
She continued to grill the meat with her head down, the aroma of meat filled her nose. While eating, she was thinking about whether she should tell Lu Zhibai about Mu Lingxiong.
After thinking for a while, I decided to give up, as it would easily expose myself.
So far, she doesn't trust anyone.
After eating the barbecue, Lu Zhibai sent Mu Lingjiu to the door of the Mu family.
The gate of the Mu family was still open, and Mu Lingjiu heard the housekeeper shouting as soon as he got off the carriage.
"The lady is back!"
Then several uncles rushed out of the house.
All the uncles appeared in front of Mu Lingjiu.
"Jiu'er, you're finally back!" Fourth uncle Mu Yushang immediately pulled Mu Lingjiu into the house. "What took you so long? My informant said you left the palace two hours ago."
Third uncle Mu Yufeng hummed, "Yes."
Fifth uncle Mu Yuzhi frowned and glanced at the two of them indifferently, "You ask too many questions."
"Yes, yes, yes, please invite Jiuer into the house first." Mu Yushang hurriedly led Mu Lingjiu back to the room.
Mu Lingjiu told several uncles about the dinner with the members of the Beast Tribe, but concealed the meeting with Lu Zhibai.
She was afraid that her uncles would misunderstand something, after all, she had been educated by Bai Po.
Mu Lingjiu ate the stewed milk prepared by her uncles, and it was perfect to eat barbecue and then drink the sweet milk.
Several uncles were concerned about Mu Lingjiu's experience in the hunting forest, and Mu Lingjiu told them everything.
When they heard about the Black Cat and the Sky Patrol Chapter, the uncles looked at each other with strange expressions.
After a long while, the fourth uncle said:
"Besides, Mu Lingxiong is here too. Jiu'er, it's too dangerous outside recently. We should stay at home and don't go out."
Mu Yuzhi was thoughtful, "Why would those people come to Chu State for no reason?"
"It can't be for Mu Linghuang, right?" Mu Yufeng frowned, obviously in disbelief at his own speculation.
Mu Yushang sneered, "Is Mu Linghuang's golden divine bone worth them coming here in person?"
"Then what are they here for? They can't be here to visit Chu State, right?" Mu Lingfeng frowned, feeling that his brain could not bear such intense thinking.
Mu Yushang shook his head. "It's not clear yet, but they'll soon find out the situation in Chu. Until then, Jiu'er, stay home."
Mu Lingjiu nodded obediently. She thought so too. She wanted to hide Mu Lingxiong first.
After drinking two more cups of sweet milk, Mu Lingjiu was urged to go to bed by his uncles as they still had something to discuss.
Mu Lingjiu returned to the courtyard, still a little worried, so he asked Luo Luo to find out the situation.
Luo Luo came back soon and said to Mu Lingjiu:
"My uncles also plan to keep a low profile recently and not let Mu Lingxiong find any clues."
"Anything else?" Mu Lingjiu didn't expect her uncles to say this after sending her away.
Luo Luo propped up his chin with his little hoof, "I just heard one sentence and my fifth uncle found me and sent me back."
“…”
Mu Lingjiu pulled the quilt and said, "Go to sleep."
The next morning, Mu Lingjiu sent her servants to buy formations and talismans to repair the body, preparing them for Xuntian Zhang. She gave Tang Ze and Luo Luo a fourth-level beast crystal each and began to practice in seclusion.
