Chapter 1792: Chapter 1772:
"By the way, Second Uncle, here’s something for you. This is a gift I brought home, and this one is for Grandpa and Grandma. It’s been blessed, let them wear it." Even though it’s not a traditional blessing, it’s still a blessing, right...
"This is for you and Second Aunt, this is for First Uncle and First Aunt, this is for my dad, this is for my mom and Uncle Lin, this is for Uncle Bai and Big Brother Bai, and this is for my godparents..." Luo Qianqian handed the items over one by one, while Luo Xihan felt overwhelmed.
"Can’t you just label them for me?" Luo Xihan interrupted Luo Qianqian and asked.
"I did, they’re all tucked inside. The boxes all look the same." Luo Qianqian quickly nodded, "Anyway, you can sort them out yourself when you get back..."
Qin Nuan also quickly took out something, "Dad, this is from Shiqi for An Hao, please keep it safe."
After collecting all the items, Luo Xihan suddenly felt like a courier, and muttered, "Shiqi, your mom did say that there are fresh ingredients to eat around here."
Luo Qianqian blinked playfully, "What is it? Is Nine Heavens Pavilion short on good food? I’ll tell my brother later to stop being so stingy."
Luo Xihan felt speechless for a moment, "Is that what I meant? Get me two wild games, the wild games from Nine Heavens Pavilion are only for show, not for eating."
"Does Nine Heavens Pavilion have wild games?"
"A giant tortoise and a massive snake; I’ve been thinking about making soup for a long time." Luo Xihan said with a serious face.
Luo Qianqian was at a loss for words. Other than that, she wouldn’t dare eat that Black Tortoise, really...
She feared lightning would strike her afterward...
"Shall we go check it out?" Luo Qianqian looked at He Wenyu with a wry smile.
This kind of thing should probably be done at the academy, right? Even if the back mountain is sealed off, there are other activity areas, after all, it’s a vast place.
"...Well, what would Second Uncle like to eat?" He Wenyu thought for a long time before touching his nose and asking.
Luo Xihan thought for a moment, "Venison, it’s said to nourish and strengthen the body, isn’t it?"
Not only does it strengthen the body, but also the kidneys...
He Wenyu waved his hand and a dead deer appeared in the courtyard, "There are many spiritual beasts stealing medicinal herbs, so I kept one as food..."
Luo Qianqian: "...You truly went through a lot."
"How to cook it? Roasted, pan-fried, or..."
The small courtyard was peaceful, everyone engrossed in the excitement of preparing food, without any other concerns.
After a hearty meal, Luo Xihan was arranged to stay in a scenic upper floor with the elders, after all, it’s a bit inconvenient to stay with the kids.
Luo Qianqian and He Wenyu also said their goodbyes and left. They weren’t allowed to stay outside, everyone knows this, so there were no objections.
Before leaving, Luo Qianqian cleaned Cong Ying’s wound again, then entrusted this task to Lin Jiayou, after all, she had assessments to attend to.
The two returned to their small courtyard and took out the packed food. The old man looked disgruntled, "Is this enough for anyone to eat? Couldn’t you make a little more for me?" He said, finishing the roast meat wrapped in flatbread.
He Wenyu, just coming out of the house, was stunned, "...Teacher, that was your breakfast. I haven’t made dinner yet..."
Looking innocent, he watched the old man with a mischievous grin.
Indeed, it was intentional, who told him to eat so eagerly?
The old man was dumbfounded too, no wonder there were just two pieces...
"We thought you’d be leaving early in the morning so we brought it back for your breakfast," He Wenyu said earnestly, "It’s just that you ate too fast... Should I make it now?"
The old man gritted his teeth, "Make it! Why not? I want to eat until I’m full!"
"By the way, what’s the content of the assessment?" Luo Qianqian asked, having changed into a different outfit, unwilling to constantly wear the same uniform, it made her feel like she hadn’t done laundry, which was awkward.
"You’ll know once it’s done." The old man said smugly.
"Oh, aren’t you afraid of leaking it this time? Hasn’t everyone already found out?" Luo Qianqian exclaimed in surprise, last time there was such secrecy, what’s the strategy this time?
"..." The old man didn’t want to speak, yes, everyone already knew...
But so what? These two girls still don’t know, do they?
"Alright then, come help me," He Wenyu looked at the old man’s face knowingly, but after all, it was his teacher, shouldn’t he offer a way out?
Luo Qianqian leaned in as well, and after a bit of tinkering, they brought a large pot of dumpling soup to the old man, simple yet abundant, enough to fill him up.
"Now, can you tell us?" He Wenyu chuckled.
Even though it was dumpling soup, effort had been put in, with colorful vegetables mixed in, not forgetting to sprinkle two packets of pickles on top as garnish, definitely enough to eat. Leaving some for breakfast was also feasible.
"It’s nothing major, just select ten people from a class, each represented by a number, then draw randomly. Draw Heaven One, and you’re Heaven Class Number One, and so on." The old man slurped the dumpling soup, thoroughly enjoying it, "Both of you are on the list, so do your best tomorrow."
"So... there’s no pressure for tomorrow?" Luo Qianqian asked immediately.
The old man rolled his eyes, "That’s only for the first-time newcomers, and not every class overthinks like yours." After saying that, he glared at the two, "This time, show your real skills, don’t just rely on poison, aren’t you afraid others will target you?"
"Anyway... Shiqi goes to ’reflect in solitude’ and I go to plow the fields, who can find us? Besides, who doesn’t know that I’m your Closed-door Disciple? Shiqi still has Mo over there, if they have the guts, let them go get themselves killed. I’m not worried about her at all." Saying this, He Wenyu winked at Luo Qianqian with trust, leaning on her shoulder while looking at the old man, "Most importantly, taking action against us outside the competition wouldn’t be a slap to your face?"
"..." Luo Qianqian’s admiration for He Wenyu was like a river, endless, utterly unstoppable, it made a lot of sense, but using someone as an amulet and saying it outright, truly fits your style...
"But, what if someone’s weapon is poisoned?" like hers...
"Then you’re out of luck." The old man said calmly, "But no Poison Ink can best yours."
Luo Qianqian couldn’t help but chuckle, as long as poison is allowed, her efforts of ten days wouldn’t be in vain.
The poison on the Thousand Mechanics Box was a mixture of poisons available in Mo’s hands, but she had built up immunity, so even if she accidentally harmed herself, it wouldn’t matter.
The only problem is, her blood also acts as an antidote; if she accidentally hurt some important figure, she might be bloodlet, a bit frightening to think about...
But, thinking about how mischievous she was to poison weapons...
