Jian Ning never expected that his original form was a pig, which was much cuter than his human form.
Seeing that their young master had run away, the guards also withdrew, but the big black wolf actually stayed with Jian Ning and refused to leave.
It lay expectantly at her feet, occasionally rubbing its big head against her thigh.
The meaning is clear: I want more delicious food, and if you don't give it to me, I'll just stay here and never leave.
The little girl couldn't do anything about him either. After all, this wasn't an ordinary wolf; it was an extraterrestrial demon wolf, specially captured and trained by Lord Qingcheng to protect his young master. It was his demonic pet.
In the Thirteenth Madam's courtyard, it was undoubtedly the boss; even the Thirteenth Madam had to speak to it with respect. Now that it was leaning against the wall and wouldn't leave, there was nothing she could do.
He could only smile apologetically at Jian Ning: "Miss, why don't you let it stay here with you for a while?"
"Just call me if you need anything." With that, he quickly ran out. He didn't want to stay in the room for even a second longer.
Jane has absolutely no resistance to these furry animals.
Especially this big black wolf, which is clearly a fierce animal, is now acting all cute and docile.
This made her unconsciously take out another roast chicken from her spatial storage and place it in front of it.
"Here you go, eat up. After you finish, go back and don't linger here."
The big black wolf glanced at her, sniffed the roast chicken, snatched it up in one bite, turned and ran away, probably understanding what she meant, and went back to its den to enjoy its meal.
Jian Ning then stood up and locked the door; she didn't want that little boy to barge in again. Actually, she was overthinking it; demons didn't understand manners at all.
They're lucky they didn't break down the door and barge in. Demons wouldn't understand concepts like propriety, morality, and a sense of shame. Talking to them about these things is like casting pearls before swine.
But to her surprise, she had only been meditating for a short while when there was a loud banging on the door. The person outside didn't say anything, just kept banging, so Jian Ning had no choice but to go over and open the door again.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a large black wolf knocking on the door.
It had two large, black-feathered chickens in its beak, each one looking as big as an ostrich. Their bloodied necks indicated it had just bitten one to death.
"What do you mean by this?" Jian Ning didn't let it in, but instead walked out of the room, closed the door, and asked.
The big black wolf threw the two chickens in its mouth onto the ground, pawed forward twice, and barked at Jian Ning twice.
"You want me to cook this chicken for you?" No, do you think I'm a master chef?
Besides, why should I? What's in it for me to cook for you? Don't expect me to do it for you for no reason; I'm not your servant.
After Jian Ning finished speaking, she turned around to go back into the house, but unexpectedly, the wolf bit her clothes, its wet eyes full of pleading.
"Playing the victim won't work either. You're the kind of person who eats raw meat, so why do you insist on eating roasted chicken? Besides, there are so many servants and maids here; any one of them could roast chicken for you."
Upon seeing Jian Ning, he refused to agree no matter what she said. The big black wolf also got anxious and suddenly bit Jian Ning's hand.
It wasn't a very strong bite, but it still drew blood from her hand.
"Hey, why are you biting people, you wolf?"
Jian Ning felt a sharp pain in her finger and instinctively activated her spiritual energy shield. But the next instant, a contract array appeared between her and the black wolf, directly enveloping them both.
After a few flashes of light, the contract was successful, and the array symbol split in two and entered their bodies respectively.
Immediately afterwards, a delicate, sweet, and crisp little voice appeared in Jian Ning's mind.
"Sister, you're such a good person. Please make me something delicious. It smells so good, I really can't resist eating it."
It turned out to be a female wolf, and judging from her voice, she was a young girl. You really can't judge the true age of demons by their appearance.
"You've made a contract with me, do you intend to stay with me forever?" Although Jian Ning found the little voice cute, she still needed to clarify things.
"That's right. If you can make such a delicious roast chicken, you must be good at other cooking skills too. I can stay with you from now on. If anyone bullies you, I will help you teach them a lesson, okay?"
As long as you can provide me with this delicious food every day, I don't need to pay anything else. I can even get the food myself.
Upon hearing this, Jian Ning realized that this was its intention—to use her as a free nanny, and that the contract it signed with her was an equal one, which could be terminated at any time with the consent of both parties.
But it's alright. Among the demons, this big black wolf's combat power should be quite high. Having it with me is fine. At worst, I can just break the contract with it when I leave.
And she really wanted to try what the demon's chicken tasted like.
It looks quite big; I wonder if the meat will be delicious after cooking.
So she took the two chickens and called out to Xiaoyu. The little girl appeared in front of her immediately, incredibly fast. It seems she's not entirely without skill.
"Miss, what do you need me for?" As soon as Xiaoyu came over, her eyes fell on the black-feathered chicken that Jian Ning was carrying.
He didn't dare say much; these chickens were the city lord's favorite. There were only sixty-six chickens in the manor in total.
Normally, we wouldn't even bring them out to kill unless it's a holiday, yet the wolf had killed two of them in one go. I'll just pretend I didn't see it, otherwise I'll definitely get scolded when the city lord asks about it later.
"Where's the kitchen? Take me there and I'll get something to eat."
"That's the second room over there, Miss. You can go there yourself, but don't tell anyone I told you." After saying that, Xiaoyu turned and left as if someone was chasing her.
Jian Ning didn't know what was wrong with her either. Puzzled, she picked up the two chickens and headed towards the kitchen, the big black wolf following closely behind.
With it by my side, it's even more useful than that girl Xiaoyu.
The kitchen staff not only cleaned the chicken, they even plucked its feathers.
They also brought over the yellow clay and seasonings as Jian Ning had requested. Although they weren't complete, Jian Ning secretly added quite a bit when they weren't looking, including bay leaves and cinnamon.
Watching Jian Ning massage the chicken from head to toe with scallion and ginger water, the onlookers exchanged bewildered glances. What was she doing? They'd never seen chicken prepared this way before.
After marinating for a period of time, various seasonings were added, the chicken was wrapped in leaves and yellow mud, buried in the soil under a fire that had been burning for half a day, and then roasted over a fire.
Everyone was very curious whether it would taste good if it were made.
So none of them left, they just stood around watching until Jian Ning dug the dried yellow mud out of the soil, threw it on the ground, and shook off the soil covering it.
As soon as the leaves inside were opened, a rich aroma of chicken wafted out, causing all the demons around to sniff involuntarily. It smelled so good!
