When Chu Molin and the others returned to the bamboo hut, Qin Xue saw that he was carrying several spiritual mice in his hand. Had they gone hunting?
"Xue’er, did you sleep well?" Chu Molin put the spiritual mice at the front door of the bamboo hut. It was Xue Ling who took him to catch them, saying it was good for his wife, so he followed along. And indeed, these little creatures were not easy to catch. If it weren’t for his previous experience of catching wild ga when sampling outside, he wouldn’t have been able to catch them at all.
It’s also because Xue Ling said it was beneficial to Qin Xue, otherwise, he wouldn’t have put in so much effort to catch them. And Chu Molin wasn’t aware that they had been eating the ones caught by Xue Ling all this ti, otherwise, he wouldn’t have worked so hard to find those little things.
"Mm, I slept well. How do you plan to eat these?" Qin Xue looked at so many of them, knowing they couldn’t finish them in one al. Plus, how to explain to the siblings at ho where these ca from? At this thought, Qin Xue felt really troubled; secrets are hard to keep.
However, for Chu Molin, it wasn’t a problem at all. He already had a plan in mind, eating them wasn’t difficult.
Chu Molin and Qin Xue hadn’t considered things the sa way; the matter worrying Qin Xue hadn’t even crossed Chu Molin’s mind.
"Roast them." It’s not that Chu Molin hadn’t thought about it; he simply didn’t plan to take them outside to eat, wanting to settle the matter in the space.
"Huh?" Qin Xue looked at Chu Molin, slightly puzzled.
"We should roast them here; it’s not appropriate to take them out." It’s not that Chu Molin didn’t want to share with them, but it wasn’t suitable for them to know the origin of these things, so it wasn’t about being greedy.
"Alright then, you go handle them, I’ll get so seasonings." Qin Xue didn’t expect Chu Molin’s thoughts to differ from hers, but upon hearing his reasoning, she was quite agreeable. To her, it was simply a matter of explaining the source, so she thought that if there were other ways, it would be best to keep it a secret for now.
"Alright, just leave it to ." Chu Molin accepted the task without any opposition.
"Xue Ling, do I get a share this ti?" Red Snake always ate raw food, and couldn’t consu such large items, so it always sought smaller things to eat, long having missed out on tasting at.
"Ask the male master, it’s not who cooks." Xue Ling directly threw the question back to Chu Molin, actually thinking Red Snake’s question was redundant. Surely, they wouldn’t eat while denying it a share?
So upon hearing Red Snake’s question, Xue Ling directly chose to ignore this simple-minded creature.
"Forget it, I won’t ask then." Red Snake didn’t know why, but it particularly dreaded Chu Molin. Whenever it saw Chu Molin, it felt it wasn’t itself anymore, so upon hearing Xue Ling’s suggestion to ask Chu Molin, it preferred not eating rather than "touching Thunder."
"Serves you right." Xue Ling didn’t bother with it, instead returning to the bamboo hut to train. It felt it was close to a breakthrough, and once achieved, it could grow a little bigger. It really wasn’t easy; why had it transford into a little girl? If it were an adult, then it wouldn’t have to worry about whether Qin Xue reads books, nor would it need to train desperately just to grow up.
But in this world, many things are unsolvable without answers, so who can say for sure? Thus, Xue Ling could only proceed slowly, step by step.
With signs of a pending breakthrough at last, it was determined to train diligently, striving for an early breakthrough to grow a bit bigger.
Yet, these thoughts weren’t shared with Qin Xue and the others; better to wait until after the breakthrough and it has grown before ntioning it.
Xue Ling thought while seated on the bamboo hut’s bed, earnestly ditating.
