Chapter 228: No meat for half a month?
Bai Chu felt a little guilty: "I... I'm ten years old."
Shang Lu snorted and looked at him with scrutiny: "Xiaobai, they are all divine beasts, why are you pretending to be a child with me?"
It was as if he was a child who had never seen the world and could not tell the difference between a human and an animal.
Bai Chu's heart skipped a beat. Why did this damn feeling of oppression feel so familiar?
He couldn't continue to lie.
"How did you know?"
Shang Lu pointed at his eyes and said, "I can see it."
"Impossible." Bai Chu denied without even thinking: "I have hidden my spiritual power, and you don't have any spiritual power, how did you know?"
Shang Lu was also a little confused: "Actually, I'm not sure, but now you admit it yourself."
Bai Chu's eyes widened: "So you are lying to me?"
Those big eyes blinked, as if to say, what can you do to me?
In fact, Shang Lu was not lying to him. He really could see that Xiaobai was a divine beast. He had a sacrificial beast at home, so of course he knew what a divine beast looked like. He couldn't tell what was different about it, but he felt that it was different.
Bai Chu was angry that he didn't keep his mouth shut, so he just revealed the whole story.
Shang Lu shook his head and asked again, "Xiaobai, you are the contracted beast of that weird uncle, right?"
Bai Chu was confused: "What weird uncle?"
"That's the God of War you guys are calling."
Bai Chu took several steps back, staring at Shang Lu in horror. When did he know this? How did he know this?
Could it be that his disguise wasn't good enough? Impossible, he had never said anything about his relationship with the God of War, not even the word "God of War".
Yes, Shang Lu was cheating him again.
"What war god are you talking about? I don't know. I am the contracted beast of the owner of this courtyard, my master."
"So this courtyard belongs to the God of War?"
Bai Chu: “…” It’s over, it’s over, he’s confessed everything, he’s finished, the boss will skin him alive if he finds out.
Shang Lu asked again: "So the weird uncle is interested in my mother and wants to seduce her?"
Bai Chu's mouth twitched, and his expression was a little strange: "Kid, do you know what hooking up means?"
"I'm not three years old, of course I know."
Shanglu's face was full of unhappiness.
"Xiao Baibao, I will not admit what you said."
"It doesn't matter." Shang Lu smiled slyly: "It doesn't matter if you don't admit it, but my mother believes me. What if I tell my mother?"
Bai Chu knelt down directly, his purple eyes filled with pleading: "Xiao Baibao, please don't say anything."
This was the first time Su Qianji had given him instructions since returning from Zhao State, and it ended before it even began. He was afraid that he would become a laughing stock in the entire Holy City.
By the way, how did this naughty kid figure out that he was a divine beast, and Su Chiji's divine beast.
"When asking for help, you should have the attitude of asking for help." Shang Lu raised his chin: "Hasn't your master taught you that?"
Bai Chu gritted his teeth and said, "Tell me, what do you want in exchange for keeping this secret?"
Shang Lu looked very embarrassed: "If I ask for the stars in the sky, can you give them to me?"
"I'm just a divine beast. Even gods can't get the stars, so how can I get them? Little Baibao, please don't bully the beast."
"Then I want a divine beast like you."
"I'm the only Fantasy Sky Beast in the entire Yutian Kingdom. Where can I find a second one for you?"
Shang Lu suddenly realized: "So you are the Fantasy Sky Beast."
Bai Chu: “.” Damn it, he confessed again.
"I didn't mean to embarrass you, it's just..." He was a little sad, his eyes red: "That's my mother, the one who gave birth to me and raised me. It would be harder for me to lie to her than for you to lie to us, right?"
Seeing that he was sad, Bai Chu also thought about it seriously. Indeed, Jiang Yao was Shang Lu's mother. It was really difficult for Shang Lu to lie to Jiang Yao.
"So I thought of asking for some benefits so that I could be more resolute when I lie to my mother."
Bai Chu compromised: "Tell me, as long as I can do it, I will agree to any conditions you give me."
Shang Lu said without thinking: "Then I want you to be my little brother."
"Okay, I promise you, huh? Wait, what? Little brother?"
Shang Lu felt even more aggrieved: "Didn't you just agree? Are you going to go back on your word?"
Bai Chu said with a bitter face: "I don't want to regret it, but I want to be your little brother."
"If you don't want to, I won't force you. I'm going to find my mother."
"No." Bai Chu quickly pulled him back and said with great embarrassment, "It's not that I don't want to, but I already have an older boss."
"Is that so?" Shang Lu was a little hurt: "Then I can only be your little boss reluctantly."
Bai Chu: “.” This is clearly taking advantage of him, how can it be considered reluctant?
But Shang Lu also had to take advantage of it. He couldn't fail in his mission, right?
If this gets to Jiutian Pavilion, Langqi will laugh at him to death when he comes back.
"Okay, they're all bosses anyway, one or two are the same."
He accepted it quickly: "Then I will call you Little Boss from now on."
"Be good, Xiaobai."
Bai Chu was a little depressed, but when he saw the little boss's sweet smile, he thought about how he had been following Su Qianji for thousands of years, working hard and without complaint, but had never received a word of praise or commendation.
Shanglu is different. He is a nice guy with a sweet mouth. In fact, there is nothing uncomfortable about recognizing him as the boss.
"By the way, Xiaobai, where is my mother?"
"She said she was going to the utility room to get a rope, why hasn't she come back yet?"
"Xiaobai, where is that smoke coming out over there?"
"The kitchen."
Jiang Yao boiled some water, humming a little tune and checking from time to time to see if the rabbit was there.
She walked over to the rabbit and traced her fingers across its back. "Half of it is stewed, Xiao Baibao likes it light, and the other half is braised, Yuejian likes it stir-fried."
Su Qianji lowered his eyes. He didn't believe that Jiang Yao would kill him, but now the fire was boiling.
Looking again, the woman had already started sharpening the knife.
Damn it, why did he turn into a rabbit? He turned into a tiger to scare this little woman to death, to see if she dared to eat him.
Su Qianji was angry and wanted to leave, but the rope that tied him was a sacred silk, so it was impossible for him to escape in the form of a rabbit. The only way to break free was to restore his original form.
But Jiang Yao was watching him so closely that he had no chance of escaping.
Jiang Yao sharpened his knife, his fox eyes narrowed as he stared at the rabbit. "Little rabbit, don't blame me. My son hasn't eaten meat for half a month. He's in the growth stage, and he won't grow tall without meat."
Su Qianji was really upset. He hadn't eaten meat for half a month? Did he feed the fish he ate the night before to the dog?
"My son is a very cute and kind child. You won't lose out if you feed him. He will surely be reborn into a good family in the next life."
Su Qianji snorted secretly. This little woman could really find all kinds of excuses for herself just to kill him with a clear conscience.
