“You’re talking nonsense, Master. I even caught Xue Ling for you. Besides, didn’t you depend on my nose to save Little Master?”

“Oh, right.” An Jiuyue nodded. She had never denied that.

“But didn’t your senses pick up on Xue Ling and w.a.n.g Xing’er’s auras? Did you use your nose to smell them instead?”

Wei Na was shocked. It admitted to sensing their auras rather than smelling them with its nose.

Wei Na, as expected, was still unable to smell anything.

It declared angrily, “I think, Master, you’re really a bad master!”

An Jiuyue chuckled.

Large bubbles rose from the clay pot in front of her, and a fragrance wafted into her nose.

She looked up in Qian Jiyun’s direction. “Jiyun, wash your hands and eat.”

“Coming.” Qian Jiyun stopped what he was doing and turned around.

After a while, he walked over to her. An Jiuyue had already prepared a water basin for him and was waiting for him to wash his hands.

“Digging trees must be tiring, right?” she teased as she handed him a towel. “I told you I’d dig with you, but you refused. Now you’re the one suffering.”

“I’m not tired.” Qian Jiyun took the towel and shook his head.

He would rather tire himself out than let An Jiuyue tire herself out.

If possible, he would prefer to accompany her to dig for the herbs too.

However, he was digging trees now. If he did not find something for An Jiuyue to do, she would definitely join him here. It was better to let her dig for some herbs.

“I’ll dig for a while more after dinner. I should be able to dig out this tree soon. Then I’ll plant it in your s.p.a.ce first,” he said.

“No need for that.” An Jiuyue shook her head quickly. “Wei Na is in the s.p.a.ce. It can do it. We… No, you. You only need to dig out the trees outside.”

She would leave it up to Wei Na to figure out how to plant the trees in the s.p.a.ce.

Qian Jiyun was stunned for a second, but he went along with whatever she said.

“Alright.”

He washed his hands and wiped his face before looking at the dinner tonight.

“Dinner is so fancy. There are so many shrimps and crabs.”

“You’re so tired from digging trees. I should reward you,” An Jiuyue said with a smile.

He was the one who had to do all the laborious work. If she did not give him something good to eat, she would be like a landlord who exploited slaves.

“Sit down and eat.”

She helped him set up the stool and handed him a pair of chopsticks.

“Okay,” Qian Jiyun replied and pulled An Jiuyue to sit with him.

They began eating their dinner.

…

“Brothers, drink up!”

A group of men in black held water pouches and drank happily in the mountains.

Their enthusiastic voices revealed that the liquid in their water pouches was not water but alcohol. Their cheeks were flushed, but they could not stop drinking.

“Big Brother, we only caught three people today. There are too few people in this lousy place. Why don’t we go somewhere else tomorrow?”

The men discussed how to capture people as they drank.

“I don’t think it matters whether they’re young or not. As long as they’re human, it’s fine. Why does Pharmacist Yin want to capture young and strong men?”

“Why are you talking so much? We’ll capture whoever Pharmacist Yin wants us to capture. Be careful not to say too much. If Pharmacist Yin finds out, you won’t be able to bear the consequences.”
