Chapter 31 Awakening
Wolf Qi quickly returned to his original state, glanced at his master, and after receiving permission, he excitedly ran into the forest.
Lin Xiaoya looked at Lang Qi's desire and allowed him to go.
In the mortal forest, there is basically no enemy who can withstand its blow. Even if there are monks passing by, its reputation as a whirlwind fire wolf is not false. If it can't be defeated, can it still run away?
"Xiao Qi, go ahead and remember to come back early!" Lin Xiaoya waved her hand and watched Lang Qi leave.
Old Man Li skillfully unhooked the cart from the horse and drove the horse to drink water from the stream.
Liu Wanjun took out the luggage she had prepared from the car, took out a small iron pot from the luggage, skillfully built a stove with stones on the ground, and prepared to boil some water for drinking.
The little girl stayed quietly beside Aunt Liu, watching her movements quietly, and from time to time she picked stones to help her build the stove.
Lin Xiaoya sat on a huge and smooth stone by the stream and meditated quietly, doing her habitual meditation practice at noon.
After Liu Wanjun built the stove, she scooped a small iron pot of clean water from the stream, placed it on the stove, and then went to the forest to look for fireweeds and dry branches.
The little girl also followed Aunt Liu very sensibly, imitating her example and started picking up twigs, weeds, etc.
At this time, a scream of "ah" broke the harmonious atmosphere of the scene.
When Lin Xiaoya heard the scream, she immediately took out her sword from the Qiankun bag and ran quickly towards the location where the sound came from.
As soon as she got closer, Lin Xiaoya discovered that behind the little girl, there was suddenly a snake with yellow and black textures, looking at the little girl eagerly.
Liu Wanjun, who was standing by, widened her eyes in horror and was too frightened to move. She could only watch helplessly as the snake kept approaching the little girl.
The little girl didn't seem to notice anything, but looked at Liu Wanjun with a worried look. Although she didn't understand what she was afraid of, she tried her best to comfort the scared Aunt Liu.
"Aunt Liu, what's wrong? Don't be afraid, what's the matter? My sister will protect us." The little girl said comfortingly, as if she was very sure of the fact that Lin Xiaoya could protect them.
Lin Xiaoya took a closer look and found that it was just a non-venomous snake. She couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the sword in her hand, quickly rushed behind the little girl, and flew the snake away.
After flying the snake away, Lin Xiaoya looked at Liu Wanjun who was too scared to move and the little girl who kept comforting Liu Wanjun, and couldn't help but feel extremely disappointed in Liu Wanjun.
It was just an ordinary cauliflower snake, not even poisonous. She was so scared that she couldn't even save the little girl who was worried about her. How could she become her servant? Would it mean that she would be held back in the future?
Liu Wanjun, who was frightened, felt relieved at this moment. Looking at the cauliflower snake that had been carried away, her originally pale face instantly turned red. Why didn't she discover that this snake was a non-venomous snake at the first time?
Liu Wanjun looked at Lin Xiaoya's disappointed expression, then looked at the little girl who looked at him with a worried look, and lowered her head in shame.
Lin Xiaoya no longer cared about Liu Wanjun's psychological activities. She looked around and found that there were no other safety issues, so she returned to the big stone to practice with peace of mind.
Liu Wanjun silently picked up the firewood in her hand, took the little girl to the piled stove, and silently started boiling water to drink.
Seeing the bored expression on the little girl next to her, Liu Wanjun sent him to go play by himself instead of accompanying her.
"Baoying, you don't have to accompany Aunt Liu. Just have your Aunt Liu here. You can go and play by yourself!"
When the little girl heard Aunt Liu's words, her playful spirit that was ready to take action suddenly came out. She ran to the side excitedly and began to explore everything nearby.
The little girl happily ran towards the beautiful flowers beside the forest, smelling the fragrance of the flowers, listening to the chirping of the birds, and watching the fish swimming in the water. She was very busy!
Liu Wanjun stared blankly at the beating flames, adding firewood from time to time, glancing at Lin Xiaoya who was practicing in the distance, and then at the lively and cute little girl.
Liu Wanjun didn't understand why she was so stupid and why she messed up things again? Liu Wanjun doubted that she was still the down-to-earth and capable person her father said she was.
Since marrying her late husband, Liu Wanjun has been trapped in the mansion, taking care of the housework of the whole family, and abiding by the rules at home of obeying her father when she marries and her husband.
Liu Wanjun didn't understand why she ended up like this. In the past, she gave up everything for her family and her husband, but what did she get? Her husband's death, her mother-in-law's curse, her brother-in-law's insult, her sister-in-law's slander, and she was sold away from home.
What did she do wrong? Why did this happen? Liu Wanjun didn't understand. Although she was not a housebound lady, she once had her own pride. Her father's restaurant became more and more important under her management.
Make it bigger.
She didn't know when she realized that she had lost herself. Liu Wanjun thought about it hard and suddenly realized that it seemed that from the moment she saw her husband, she suddenly felt that none of this was important and stood beside him to accompany him.
In love with him, she gave up a lot to be a qualified lady in his eyes.
I'm afraid that by that time she had already lost her former self. The cheerful, quick, courageous, resourceful and lively female restaurant owner had disappeared, leaving only the lady that her husband once considered her to be.
When Liu Wanjun thought of Lin Xiaoya who was deftly picking off the cauliflower snake with the sword in her hand, she suddenly remembered that she was once so brave and could cut poisonous snakes with her own hands and make a delicious snake soup.
But now, no matter whether the snake is venomous or not, she can only scream and cry for help. She is not as brave as she once was. She vowed that she would find her former self, the brave and fearless self who could kill poisonous snakes with her hands.
As Liu Wanjun figured it out, a strange air flow surged up on her body, running along her whole body, emitting a powerful mental wave.
At this time, Lin Xiaoya suddenly woke up from her practice, and she really heard the sound of the mirror breaking from Liu Wanjun's side.
As the sound of the mirror breaking became louder and louder, a powerful force gradually emitted from Liu Wanjun's body, and her face became like fragments, falling bit by bit.
Seeing the change in Aunt Liu, the little girl screamed in fear. Lin Xiaoya quickly came to her side and covered her eyes.
Lin Xiaoya didn't understand what happened. How could an ordinary village woman have such a powerful force? She couldn't help but retreat from the pressure of this power.
Lin Xiaoya looked at Liu Wanjun helplessly, her whole body was shattering like a mirror, and from the cracks, strong light continued to shine out.
Old man Li, who had long been frightened by this sudden scene, drove his horse away early.
Lin Xiaoya's eyes were sore when exposed to the strong light. She couldn't help but close her eyes, turned sideways, and waited for the light to dissipate.
