Hu Zhenlong nodded in agreement.
"Then…why didn't you help that kid get rid of his roots?”Shui Gui said nervously.
"Rules cannot be broken…"
"I don't think we have enough money…"
Shui Gui muttered to himself.
Hu Zhenlong glanced at the water ghost and said coldly," Why are you still asking? Are you looking for trouble?”
The water ghost was so scared that its green face turned a little pale. It slipped back into the tank and did not dare to show its head again.
At the same time, the group had returned to the mushroom house.
Wang Zhengyu was still worried, so he specially called the doctor to check Peng Peng. The result was that there was no problem and he was very healthy. Only then did he feel relieved.
The burden of the past few days finally fell to the ground. Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Teacher Huang hurriedly went into the kitchen and started cooking lunch.
The other guests also followed in and helped Teacher Huang.
Peng Peng originally wanted to go in and help, but he was stopped by Mr. He. His tone was unusually firm." You've just recovered from your illness. Have a good rest."”
Peng Peng had no choice but to leave the kitchen and sit quietly in the courtyard to wait for dinner.
Perhaps because she was happy, Teacher Huang made a lot of dishes this time. Most of them were Peng Peng's favorite dishes. When the dishes were served, Peng Peng rushed to find a huge thermos before everyone started eating and took out a little of each dish.
Everyone was curious and asked Peng Peng. Peng Peng explained that he was grateful for Hu Zhenlong's help just now and was prepared to give these dishes to Hu Zhenlong to taste after eating.
Teacher Huang praised Peng Peng for being sensible. She even helped Peng Peng to put the vegetables into the thermos when she was scooping them up.
Everything was ready, and everyone began to eat.
After gorging himself, Peng Peng put down his empty bowl, rubbed his stomach in satisfaction, and burped.
"I'm full."
"I'm afraid I'll gain another three pounds after eating so much.”Zi Feng teased.
" How is that possible?" Peng Peng immediately retorted." I haven't eaten for a few days. How can I be fat?"”
As soon as these words came out, Zi Feng could not bear to continue teasing Peng Peng.
"Alright, I'm going to bring food to my savior. It's a good time to exercise and digest food.”As he spoke, Peng Peng stood up, picked up the thermos, and jogged out of the mushroom house.
Peng Peng was rushing over with a thermos container. In Hu Zhenlong's courtyard, a water ghost popped out of a large vat under the locust tree. It greedily sucked on the incense while staring at Hu Zhenlong sitting on the armchair with envy and admiration.
"Sigh, I didn't feel that the food was very good when I was alive. Now that I'm dead, I don't have the chance to eat it anymore.”
Hearing this, Hu Zhenlong was furious.
"You're still talking to me about food. Have you forgotten how terrible the food you cook is?”
The male ghost suddenly became extremely resentful, so much so that he even spoke in his hometown dialect." I'm a grown man, how can I cook? It would be great if I could find a female ghost."”
The mud statue outside the door heard the conversation of the male ghost in the courtyard. It seemed to have thought of something and suddenly laughed.
At this moment, Peng Peng happened to arrive at the door. When he saw the mud statue smiling sinisterly, he was so frightened that he put down the thermos box and shouted into the courtyard before running away.
Hu Zhenlong heard the commotion and opened his Heavenly Eye. He saw Peng Peng outside the courtyard and noticed that the sky lantern on his shoulder was flickering. He could not help but sigh.
"From the looks of it, it seems like it will be completely extinguished soon.”
Legend had it that a person had three sky lanterns on their body. One was on their head, and the other two were on their shoulders. The sun fire burned in the sky lanterns, representing a person's lifespan. If all three sky lanterns were extinguished, a person would not be able to live.
The male ghost could also see the situation outside. He said faintly," It should be the female corpse. She might come to find him tonight."”
"Looking at the situation, I'm afraid it's not good.”Hu Zhenlong shook his head regretfully.
"Why are you so pessimistic? Isn't the sky lantern above his head quite bright? There should still be a chance of survival.”
After he finished speaking, as if he was deliberately slapping Peng Peng in the face, the sky lantern above Peng Peng's head suddenly flashed.
The male ghost was speechless.
"Now, the last chance of survival is gone because of you.”Hu Zhenlong said coldly.
"What does this have to do with me?" The male ghost sounded exasperated.
It didn't take long for the man and ghost to speak. Peng Peng ran away and didn't even enter the forest.
Hu Zhenlong ignored the male ghost. Seeing that Peng Peng was about to run into the forest, he couldn't help but sigh." Sigh, it's too much of a waste to take advantage of others."”
As he spoke, Hu Zhenlong gestured at Peng Peng's back.
At this moment, the front half of Peng Peng's body had already stepped into the forest.
Just as the latter half of his body was about to enter the forest, Hu Zhenlong finally finished his gestures and put down his hand.
The moment Hu Zhenlong put down his hand, a yellow talisman suddenly stuck to Peng Peng's back silently. After his entire body disappeared into the forest, it immediately disappeared without a trace.
