It was already evening when the two of them returned to Yuchuan. Liu Xiaolu placed the bamboo rats he bought in Zongyuan City today in the yard under the darkness of night. Then he clapped his hands with satisfaction and turned towards his room.

After changing his clothes and washing up hastily, Liu Xiaolu took off his shoes and sat cross-legged on the bed to start today's practice.

But as soon as she closed her eyes and before she had time to activate the technique, her whole body was shaken and she suddenly opened her eyes.

Then he suddenly turned his head and looked to his side, only to see that the place on the bed where Xiaoqing had been lingering was now empty, with only traces of blood and some white and transparent membranes remaining in place.

"Xiao Qing?"

Liu Xiaolu's expression changed, and he hurriedly got out of bed and looked around the room for a while, but he did not find the green snake.

In desperation, Liu Xiaolu didn't have time to think any more, so he opened the door and walked into the yard again.

It was getting late, and Hu Yizhi had already gone back to his room to rest. Apart from the slight sound of wind and the squeaking of the nest of bamboo rats brought back today in the iron cage in the corner, there was no other sound in the huge courtyard.

Liu Xiaolu looked around in the darkness and found nothing unusual. Just when she wanted to search carefully in the yard, she suddenly heard a series of frightened screams coming from the iron cage in the corner.

Looking intently in the direction of the iron cage, I saw a long black shadow wrapping around the cage, causing the bamboo rats in the cage to run around restlessly and let out bursts of piercing screams.

"Xiaoqing, are you awake?" Upon seeing this, Liu Xiaolu hurriedly ran towards the corner and said in surprise.

The light was dim at night, so Liu Xiaolu ran a few steps to get closer, and then he saw clearly Xiao Qing's figure on the iron cage.

I saw that the Green Snake's body, which was originally only over three feet long, had suddenly grown to five or six feet long, and the originally green Linjia all over its body had turned into a slightly blackish dark green color.

The black lines on his forehead that looked like paintings now became slightly raised and glowed with a metallic luster.

Hearing the sound, Xiao Qing turned around and spat out the message dissatisfiedly to Liu Xiaolu who was coming over, and said via voice transmission, "Didn't we agree on five meals of roasted bamboo rats? Why are there only so few? Are you trying to deceive Gu!"

"How could I lie to you? When these are finished, I will buy them for you!" Liu Xiaolu waved his little hand and promised passionately.

"Hey, that's pretty much it." Xiao Qing glanced sideways at Liu Xiaolu, then swam down from the iron cage, "I'm hungry, little loser, why are you still standing there, go and prepare some food for me!

"

Liu Xiaolu rolled his eyes at the pretentious Xiaoqing, but was too lazy to argue with him at this time. He could only nod helplessly and said, "No problem, I will prepare a barbecue for His Majesty the Water Goddess. Please wait a moment, Your Highness!"

"Well, go ahead and come back quickly." Xiaoqing straightened up her upper body and proudly pouted towards Liu Xiaolu's direction toward the kitchen.

Everything in the new yard is fully furnished, even the kitchen is no exception. Not only are there various seasonings, but there are even a lot of fresh seasonal vegetables.

Liu Xiaolu picked through the iron cage, picked out two fat and strong bamboo rats, and muttered,

"You two are the fattest, and you must have eaten the most. In order to keep the other poor little bamboo rats full for a few days, I'll eat you first tonight."

Half an hour later, a table of dishes was placed in the pavilion in the courtyard, including a plate of golden and crispy roasted bamboo rat and a few simple seasonal vegetables. Although the ingredients used were simple, they had quite a flavor when paired together.

"Slow down, no one will compete with you." Liu Xiaolu couldn't help but laugh when he saw Xiaoqing devouring the food.

Xiao Qing struggled to swallow a large piece of barbecue in her mouth, rolled her eyes, and said angrily, "What do you know? I'm starving to death these days!"

I don’t know where you all have been today. I have been searching at home all day, but I only found some breaking pills, which are not enough to fill the gap between Gu Gu’s teeth.”

When Liu Xiaolu heard this, the smile on his face froze, his face instantly turned cold, and he said in a deep voice, "You stole my Golden Marrow Pill again?!"

"How can it be considered stealing? There is nothing at home, and you are not at home, so I can only reluctantly take some pills to satisfy my hunger.

Hey, you don’t know that there is a lot of dregs in the broken elixir. After eating so much today, I still have to spend a lot of time to eliminate the erysipelas." Xiao Qing shook her head disapprovingly and said in a disdainful tone.

"How many Golden Marrow Pills have you taken today?" Liu Xiaolu took a deep breath and said slowly with a sinister look on his face.

Xiao Qing tilted her head and thought for a while, then said uncertainly, "Five bottles? No, it seems to be six bottles. I was so hungry at the time that I couldn't remember clearly."

The corners of Liu Xiaolu's eyes twitched. It seemed that Xiao Qing had once again eaten all the golden marrow pills distributed by the clan during this period.

"You prodigal thing!" Liu Xiaolu stood up from his chair with a loud sound and raised his arms towards the green snake feasting on the table.

"If you are willing to fight, then go ahead. Anyway, the elixir has been eaten by Gu, and you can't change it even if you beat Gu to death." Xiaoqing winked at Liu Xiaolu without dodging.

The round eyes, bachelor said.

Looking at Xiaoqing's body, which was broken in many places and stained with blood, Liu Xiaolu's eyes flickered for a while, and finally he put down his raised palm and said bitterly, "Eat, eat, eat, you know

Eat until you are exhausted!"

After Liu Xiaolu finished speaking, he turned around to leave, but was stopped by Xiao Qing behind him, "Hey, little loser, don't leave in a hurry, I still have something to ask you."

"What's the matter? Tell me." Liu Xiaolu glanced at Xiaoqing and said angrily.

"I remember before I fell asleep, didn't we live in the courtyard to the west? Why did we move suddenly?" Xiaoqing stretched her neck and swallowed another piece of barbecue, and then said in a confused tone.

Hearing this, Liu Xiaolu narrowed his eyes, looked at Xiao Qing up and down with his hands folded, and then said in a calm tone, "I, the genius of the Hu family, and the identity of the young master, do you understand?"

Xiao Qing sneered, tilted her head and said, "Can a little loser like you be considered a genius? Then your family must be in a bit of trouble."

"If you say one more thing, don't think about me making roasted bamboo rats for you in the future!" Liu Xiaolu was so angry at Xiao Qing that he had to use his trump card.

"Oh, why don't I stop hurting you in the future? You're stingy!" Xiaoqing said anxiously after hearing this.

"snort."

Liu Xiaolu snorted coldly, but heard Xiao Qing muttering quietly, "Even Gu Xiaodi, the owner of the Three Spiritual Roots, lives nearby. The standard for judging geniuses in this little loser's family is too low.
