"Xiao Qi, it's okay. We're already out.”Ye Lin said softly as he stroked Kaqi's back.
Kachi's face gradually regained some color. She raised her head and looked at Ye Lin with a confused expression."Ling, must humans eat other animals?”
Ye Lin was silent for a moment before he said,""Xiao Qi, the law of the jungle is the law of the world. You should have understood long ago. It wasn't that whoever was weak deserved sympathy. It was impossible for all humans and animals to survive. Otherwise, do you want tigers, lions, and other carnivores to starve to death? If you don't eat meat, can you force all the animals in the world to not eat meat? This is not something we can change. Aren't you a little too naive?"
Kaqi's eyes widened. This was the first time Ye Lin had said such harsh words to him. He vaguely knew that what Ye Lin said was right, but his worldview formed over the years still made him subconsciously refute,"" But, Ling…" Ye Lin interrupted.
"Xiao Qi, I will support you no matter what you want to do. I just want you to see clearly whether you are helping those spirit beasts or harming them.”
"I still can't figure it out."
"It's okay, Xiao Qi. I won't force you. Some things can't be rushed. I'll accompany you through a little. One day, you'll naturally understand.”
Ye Lin lowered his head and kissed her on the cold forehead. His eyes were gentle and tolerant. Under Ye Lin's gaze, Kaqi's face slowly turned red and she nodded.
Ye Lin smiled in satisfaction." When the 15 days are up, I'll bring you to other places in Huaxia. Believe me, Huaxia is a beautiful and charming country."”
"Are you hungry? Let's find a place to make something to eat and fill our stomachs before we go find Uncle Qi Shan.”
"It's been a while since I've eaten Ling's cooking, and I really miss it.”
"There's no need to miss it. I'll let you eat your fill today.”Ye Lin had a smile in his eyes and was in a good mood.
Ye Lin and Kaqi walked to an empty space, picked up a few dry branches and started a fire.
Ye Lin took out the dead wild goose and carefully removed its feathers. He washed it by the stream and placed it on the rack to roast. Then, he took out carrots, spinach, and tomatoes to boil a pot of soup.
Ye Lin took out a carrot and stuffed it into Blu's mouth. He also scooped a small stack of corn for Feather and fed Loki a piece of roasted goose meat. He cut off a goose leg with a knife and threw the rest to Little White.
Kaqi, on the other hand, had sweet potatoes that Ye Lin had specially baked for him, a fruit platter, and a bowl of steaming vegetable soup.
After eating, Ye Lin lay lazily on the ground with a piece of foxtail grass in his mouth. He looked up at Kachi who was leaning against Xiaobai and raised his eyebrows."Xiao Qi, the ground isn't cold at all. The sun is very warm. Come and lie down with me for a while!”
Kaqi stood up hesitantly and moved towards Ye Lin. In the next second, Ye Lin pulled her down and she fell into his arms.
Kaqi found a comfortable position in Ye Lin's arms, then raised her head and glared at him. Ye Lin was not scared at all, but his smile became even more annoying.
After a while, a warm breeze blew. Kaqi narrowed her eyes. Oh, the sun was really warm. She was a little sleepy...
Kaqi turned her head to the side. Ye Lin had already closed his eyes and his breathing was light. He was obviously asleep. He could not help but close his eyes and throw himself into the Duke of Zhou's embrace. The animals either squinted or closed their eyes. They circled around the two of them and gradually fell asleep.
When she woke up, it was already dusk. The sun was setting in the west, and most of the sun had already set. It cast a warm yellow light at the end of the mountain. It was no longer dazzling, but it was still warm. There was a commotion in the distance.
"Ye Lin, Ka Qi, where are you?”
Ye Lin had just woken up and was still a little muddle-headed. He did not understand why these people were looking for them, but in order to not let them worry, he still spoke. His voice traveled far with his internal energy,""Here ~~~~"
Ye Lin didn't have many acquaintances in Taihang Mountain, so those people were naturally found by the young girl. Hearing Ye Lin's voice, the young lady's face lit up. She lightly tapped the ground with her toes and dashed towards Ye Lin's direction. Very quickly, she arrived before Ye Lin and the others.
The young girl looked at the unharmed person in front of her, looking a little disheveled, but her heart was at ease."Ye Lin, I've finally found you. When my mother and I went back, I heard from Uncle Qishan that you hadn't come back yet. He remembered that there were many formations set up by the Huang family in Taihang Mountain. He was afraid that you would accidentally barge in and get into trouble, so he asked Uncle Huang to send some people to look for you.”
Ye Lin's heart warmed and he decided to treat the girl better in the future. He lowered his head slightly and said apologetically,""I'm sorry, Hanmo. We accidentally fell asleep and made you worry.”
The young girl waved her hand when she heard Ye Lin's apology. She looked at the grass on their bodies and her lips twitched stiffly."It's fine. Let's go back!"
"Alright."
Ye Lin didn't say anything else. He reached out to pull Kaqi up, but when he looked down, he saw Kaqi frowning. He bent down and asked gently,""What's wrong, Xiao Qi?"
"My legs are numb. I can't get up."”
Without another word, Ye Lin bent down and reached out with his long arms to carefully carry Kaqi.
The young girl looked at Ye Lin's natural actions and suddenly felt her eyes turn sour. She raised her arm and rubbed it gently.
"What's wrong?" Ye Lin's soft voice sounded in her ears.
"I'm fine. There's sand in my eyes." The girl forced a smile, but there was no joy in her eyes." Let's go!”
(Sigh, I can't afford to hurt people with low EQ…)
There were still eleven days left until the end of the mission.
Today was the girl's succession ceremony. The Li family members from other provinces had rushed back a few days ago. At this moment, the Li family courtyard was full of people.
There was a round stone altar in the middle of the courtyard. It was about two meters tall and there were only two people on it. They were the girl and Grandpa Li.
There were not many things on the stone altar. There was only a stone table on the table. There was a piece of black flannel on the stone table, and on the cloth was a blood-red jade hairpin. The jade hairpin was carved from a whole piece of blood-red jade into the shape of a coiled snake. The snake looked lazy and harmless, but it also looked as if it would bite your throat in the next second. Next to the jade hairpin was a silver ring with the word "Li" engraved on it and a finger-long knife.
Grandpa Li picked up the jade hairpin and gestured for the girl to come over with a serious expression.
