"Pack up and let's go." Li Zhōujūn said helplessly.
Then, Li Zhōujūn and Kong Cai'er packed up the garbage they stayed here and set off.
Along the way, Kong Cai'er followed Li Zhōujūn, chirping and asking questions.
"How old are you?"
"Forever eighteen."
"Um... what do you usually like to do?"
"Wander around, fish, and eat chicken."
"What an ordinary daily life..."
"Yeah, it's bland but I think it's pretty good."
"Okay, look, the scenery here is pretty good."
"Really good."
In this way, Li Zhōujūn and Kong Cai'er were chatting until it was almost dark.
"It's getting dark. There is only one village in front and a forest behind. Let's go stay overnight." Kong Cai'er looked at the village in front of him and turned to Li Zhōujūn.
I feel arrogant in my heart, seeing how considerate this girl is of you, a mortal, knowing that you can't walk at night, yet still thinking about you. Otherwise, if it were me, I wouldn't be able to walk on a mountain road at night!
"Okay." Li Zhōujūn nodded at this time.
Then the two came to a house built with earth walls and thatch.
Next to this house, there is another house similar to it.
Kong Cai'er took the lead and knocked on the dilapidated wooden door.
Soon, the door was opened.
She is a sixteen-year-old girl.
Although the little girl is dressed in coarse linen clothes, it cannot conceal her natural beauty and dewy face.
When the little girl saw Kong Cai'er, she seemed to see what Kong Cai'er was wearing. She felt inferior in her eyes and asked in a weak voice, "This... girl, what can I do for you?"
Kong Cai'er saw that it was a little girl who opened the door, so he showed a beautiful smile and said, "Little girl, can I and that guy stay overnight?"
Saying that, Kong Cai'er pointed at Li Zhōujūn.
The little girl followed Kong Cai'er's direction, looked at Li Zhōujūn, then at Kong Cai'er, hesitated for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay, I happen to have an empty room in my house."
"Haha, don't worry, little girl, I'm not the kind of person who takes advantage of others. Just take it and treat it as the room payment for me and that person." With that, Kong Cai'er took out a piece of broken silver from his sleeve and stuffed it into the little girl's hand.
The little girl was shocked. "Girl, this... is too much, you are just staying for one night, it's free of charge!"
"It's okay, just take it." Kong Cai'er proudly put the broken silver into the little girl's hand.
The little girl looked at the broken silver in her hand and was about to stuff it back to Kong Cai'er, but she saw Kong Cai'er's face turned cold. "Little girl, aren't you looking down on me like this? Just take it here. If you get angry, I'll give you a few more!"
The little girl was stunned by Kong Cai'er's words. When she realized what she was doing, she was dumbfounded and said, "I'll just take it, but don't give it to me again."
She has never seen anyone like this.
Li Zhōujūn was also amused by Kong Cai'er.
Immediately, at the little girl's greeting, Li Zhōujūn and Kong Cai'er entered the house.
As soon as he entered the house, Li Zhōujūn saw the lobby of the house. There was a fist-sized hole in the wall next to it. Through the hole, he could see a table placed in the lobby next door.
"Are you the only one who lives here?" Kong Cai'er looked around the house and asked the little girl curiously.
"Yes." The little girl looked a little disappointed and said, "I was supposed to be with my husband, but he left."
"Are you getting married at this age?" Kong Cai'er said in shock.
The little girl looked at Li Zhōujūn blankly, then looked at Kong Cai'er, and said in a daze, "Isn't this your husband? Isn't it the age to get married at the age of twelve or thirteen?"
Kong Cai'er: "..."
Li Zhōujūn: "..."
"Ahem, little girl, he and I are... friends, don't think too much haha, by the way, what's your name?" Kong Cai'er asked with a haha. At this time, Kong Cai'er also reacted. Mortals, especially poor mortals, indeed seem to be getting married at this age. After all, they have worked hard in their lives and are destined to have a hard time living to the age of forty or fifty.
Those who can live to the age of forty or fifty are generally respected by others.
Those from wealthy families say otherwise. After all, they are wealthy and pampered, so it is not difficult to live to their forties or fifties.
At the same time, the little girl whispered to Kong Cai'er, "My name is Kong Xue."
"Your surname is Kong too?" Kong Cai'er said in surprise, "My name is Kong Cai'er haha!"
"What a coincidence." Kong Xue also laughed.
The relationship between Kong Cai'er and Kong Xue was instantly strengthened, and they had a great time chatting.
Li Zhōujūn silently found a place to sit down and looked out the window.
It's time for dinner now.
Many houses in the small village had smoke rising from their chimneys.
At this time, Kong Xue looked at Kong Cai'er and said with a somewhat envious smile in his eyes, "Sister Cai'er, you said that you are probably tired from traveling around. I will kill the chicken and make chicken soup for you to replenish your body."
"Okay! Okay! That guy also said he likes to eat chicken." Kong Cai'er clapped his hands and smiled, "I'll help you!"
"No need." Li Zhōujūn said at this time.
"What's wrong?" Kong Cai'er said blankly, "Don't you like eating chicken?"
"How many chickens do you think this girl can have at home?" Li Zhōujūn said helplessly, "If we don't come, it would be a luxury for her to eat eggs."
"How many chickens do you have here?" Kong Cai'er turned to Kong Xue and asked.
Kong Xue smiled and said, "Sister Cai'er, you gave me a piece of silver. Isn't it still worth a chicken?"
"That's true, but how many chickens do you have first? If you don't tell me, I'll just watch it myself." Kong Cai'er continued to ask.
"An old hen..." Kong Xue hesitated for a moment, then said.
"How can an old hen lay eggs?" Kong Cai'er stared wide-eyed.
"Ahem, actually, hens can lay eggs without roosters, and if hens are free-range, how do you know they won't encounter roosters outside?" Li Zhōujūn was amused by Kong Cai'er at this time.
"What?! A hen can lay eggs without a rooster?!" Kong Cai'er's face turned pale, but he breathed a sigh of relief when he thought that he was the God Emperor and that when he broke out of his shell, he would reach the realm of true God.
Although her body is not a chicken, but Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Divine Phoenix, she is also born from eggs. When she thinks that a hen can lay eggs without a rooster, she is still a little scared.
Then Peacock said to Kong Xue righteously, "Well, Little Sister Xue, just make us a few eggs and forget about killing the hens."
"This..." Kong Xue was in a daze.
"Be obedient, or you'll get a spanking." Kong Cai'er said seriously.
Kong Xue then looked at Li Zhōujūn.
Li Zhōujūn also nodded. "Just make a few eggs. Forget about hens. Chickens are often eaten, but eggs have not been eaten for some days. I miss the taste of scrambled eggs."
"Okay..." Kong Xue was a little helpless. "I'm going to get some more dishes. Just serving scrambled eggs to the two of you is a bit unreasonable..."
"It's too late, no need." Kong Cai'er smiled and said, "Let's go make scrambled eggs together!"
With that said, Kong Cai'er pushed Kong Xue to the kitchen.
