Chapter 276 Big Brother Helps Her Restock
All made sense when he thought about it this way. Facing the 'loving' eyes of his father and brother, Li Yaoguang stopped hesitating and responded with a silly grin. He lowered his head and took a big bite of meat. He ate with great energy. Ji Mo saw this and felt both sad and happy.
I'm happy that she's not on guard against me, but I'm also worried about when she'll finally come to her senses.
Seeing her like a greedy cat gnawing on the meat, Ji Mo couldn't help the itch in his hands. He stretched out his magic claws and pinched someone's swollen cheek, which was immediately met with protests.
"Big Pot, what are you doing?"
Ji Mo suddenly woke up, and uncomfortably retracted his claws and put them behind his back, pretending to be calm, "Ahem, your face is dirty, let me wipe it for you."
"Oh, thank you."
"Haha, you're welcome."
Ji Mo, who had forced himself to remain calm, saw Li Yaoguang obediently chewing the meat again. He felt relieved, his eyes dimmed, and he rubbed his hands behind his back subconsciously. He spat on himself secretly, afraid that he would not be able to resist and stretch out his evil claws again, so he quickly interrupted her.
"Eat quickly. After you finish eating, we will hurry on our way and try to arrive before sunset."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah." After receiving earnest instructions from her father and brother, Li Yaoguang, who was chewing the meat, became more and more determined to be nicer to her father and brother in the future. These were her real relatives without any blood relationship!
After eating the meat, Li Yaoguang wanted to get some water to drink, but was grabbed by the people around him to wipe his hands and face. That gentle look made Li Yaoguang feel like a little waste, and at the same time, he felt that his father and brother were weird.
Feeling really uncomfortable, Li Yaoguang snatched the pure black silk handkerchief from the other person's hand and forced a smile, "Haha, brother, I'm not a child anymore, I can do it myself." He grabbed the silk handkerchief and wiped himself roughly, completely ignoring the loneliness that flashed across the other person's eyes.
Ji Mo withdrew his empty hand in disappointment and sighed silently. He did not dare to go any further. He kept comforting himself that she was still young and he had to take it slow. He forced himself to calm down, turned around and walked to the straw mat. He rudely woke up the two sleeping pets with his kick, and the two of them and their pets set out again.
As for the silk handkerchief, Li Yaoguang stuffed it into the space after using it.
Just kidding, it's just the grease on my hands and face. I have to find a chance to wash it off before returning it to my dad and brother.
In this way they traveled for another day, and when the sun was setting at the top of the mountain, the two of them and their two pets arrived at a small town called Luoxia.
Li Yaoguang originally thought that his father and brother were going to take him into the town, but when they arrived at the town entrance, Ji Mo turned around at the three-way intersection leading into the town, passing through the town without entering, and instead took the road on the side leading to the mountains.
They passed two deserted villages and went straight into the mountains, walked through twists and turns, and took a road that didn't look like a road. Finally, under the leadership of their father and brother, they successfully arrived at a valley with a wide terrain and almost no traces of human beings.
Li Yaoguang was puzzled: "Brother, where are you? Didn't you say you were looking for a carrier pigeon?"
Ji Mo pulled her deeper, "Yes, we are looking for carrier pigeons."
Li Yaoguang was puzzled. "There's nothing here, where did the pigeon come from?"
"Don't worry, just wait."
As soon as Ji Mo finished speaking, he let go of her hand and walked forward on his own, walking, stopping, looking around, and looking up at the sky from time to time, as if he was calculating his position. He was busy for almost half a cup of tea before he finally stopped, and then walked towards Li Yaoguang, leaving the two pets to guard the valley, and pulled Li Yaoguang towards a sharp corner of the valley.
When they got there, Li Yaoguang didn't even see how his father and brother did it. He only heard a dull bang, and a huge bluestone under the roots of a big tree on one side of the mountain wall slid open, revealing a dark entrance in an instant.
Ji Mo took out a fire starter, opened it and blew it, then extended his right hand towards Li Yaoguang.
"Come."
Li Yaoguang didn't hesitate. Anyway, his father and brother wouldn't hurt him. He reached out his hand and was held by his father and brother. Then he was led by his father and brother to the entrance under the tree, which looked small but was actually very deep. After entering, Li Yaoguang found that it was very large and deep. There was an echo when walking inside. However, seeing the bright fire still burning, Li Yaoguang was not worried anymore. The air here was still flowing.
After walking for about five or six minutes without stopping, Li Yaoguang couldn't help but ask the guide who was holding his hand, "Brother, how long will it take?"
As she asked, the echo of footsteps stopped abruptly. Dad and brother held up a fire starter and looked around, then lit two torches. His gentle voice sounded above her head, "We're here."
Then Li Yaoguang hurriedly looked in the direction her father and brother had made way for. With the help of the two torches, she almost instantly saw that in the huge cave in front of her father and brother, there were many wooden barrels and boxes neatly stacked.
Li Yaoguang was very surprised, "What is this?"
Ji Mo smiled, pulled Li Yaoguang forward again, came to the nearest wooden barrel, opened the seal, used a fire to melt the wax seal on the barrel, raised his hand, opened the lid, and Ji Mo lit the food inside and smiled.
"This is one of the Qijitang bases like Jincheng. It not only stores emergency supplies, but is also a secret training site for homing pigeons. To summon homing pigeons, not only do you need to use special methods, you also need food."
"Oh, that's how it is." Li Yaoguang nodded in sudden realization. It turned out that these wooden barrels were grain barrels, and the things in the wooden box must not be simple either.
I have to say, my dad is really capable.
Just as he was sighing in his heart, Ji Mo beside him patted Li Yaoguang on the shoulder and suddenly said something shocking.
"Okay Yaoguang, stop looking and move all these away quickly,"
"Ah, no way, big brother, are you moving all these?"
Ji Mo nodded, "Yes, move them all, quickly. There is a drought here, I am afraid it is not safe, and you have given away all the food you hid. How can you be a girl without some confidence? Quickly use your magical powers to move all these away."
"But……"
"No buts, I'll be on guard. Hurry up and call your five ghosts to take action. Aren't we in a hurry to gather the carrier pigeons? Don't delay. These are not precious things to me. Just use them for now." Afraid that the little girl would not be happy to accept it and say more, Ji Mo took a step back and blocked her way. "Then, just consider it as keeping it for me. I'll ask you for it later if I need it."
Seeing that his father and brother would not tolerate rejection, Li Yaoguang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll move now."
There are so many old things, and they are said to be kept, how could she not know what her father and brother are thinking.
He really treats me like his own daughter. Bah, bah, bah, he loves me like a real sister! Dad and brother are so good!
Li Yaoguang couldn't help but fawn on him while collecting the items.
Such a good father and brother cannot be lost. It is said that flattery never wears out. Li Yaoguang kept flattering his father without stopping.
"Brother, brother, you are truly the best brother in the world, even closer than my own brother. I really like you so much."
Saying "closer than brother" or something like that made Ji Mo frown in displeasure instantly, but saying "like him too much" or something like that... Suddenly, Ji Mo's ears turned red again, his eyes were shining with excitement, and there was a rare look of discomfort on his face.
Hearing her say this, it was worth it for me to bring her here after a long journey, just so that she could move more things and hide them so that she would have the confidence.
The little girl is still young, enthusiastic, and won't do bad things. She is good in every way except that she is not smart!
Although he is capable, he is too soft-hearted. I should get her some more things and hide them away so that even if I am not with her in the future, she will not be hungry no matter what happens.
Of course, before that, he had to give her a thorough reminder that these were prepared for her, and she must not use them on other outsiders in the future, absolutely not.
