Chapter 241 Burp... I ate too much.
【Oh dear! Then... I just led Tingxue on such a long, roundabout way... wasn't it all for nothing?】
Jiang Mianmian slapped her thigh in frustration, her face full of regret.
[Sigh, it turns out they were just fishing there. But I mistakenly thought it would harm Tingxue, so I kept telling her to stay away. Now look what happened, I was just causing trouble for no reason!]
Although the mysterious golden light had disappeared, she still had a vague feeling that all her efforts had been counterproductive.
Jiang Mianmian couldn't help but sigh softly.
I really don't know if that thing has any spirit. If it does, it's probably hating me right now!
They originally came here hoping for a delicious meal, but because of my interference, they didn't even get a single bite.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shake her head helplessly.
At this moment, Li Tingxue, who was standing to the side, suddenly became excited.
Wow, I actually have such great abilities?!
How come I had no idea?!
Seeing Li Tingxue's surprised and delighted expression, Jiang Mianmian couldn't help but feel a pang of envy.
Ah, how wonderful it would be if I could have such amazing abilities!
Just then, Jiang Mianmian let out a loud burp without any warning.
She was taken aback at first, then touched her round belly and muttered in confusion:
[Wait a minute, this is strange. I walked all this way hoping to digest the food in my stomach properly, but instead of digesting it, I feel even fuller!]
Could it be... that I'm not a human, but a cow or a horse, capable of ruminating?
The moment the idea popped into her head, even she found it absurd and laughable.
[Well, since that's how it is, I'll just wander around a bit more. Maybe walking around will help me get back to normal!]
If her previous walks were just for "fishing," then now Jiang Mianmian's walks are purely to help her stomach and intestines "digest" better.
Li Tingxue: "..."
But unlike last time, she was no longer afraid. After all, she knew she possessed something mysterious that could devour those eerie black lines. So, let things take their course.
She was actually quite curious to see whether the creepy black lines were more powerful, or the mysterious thing hidden inside her body.
Meanwhile, on the Shen family's ancestral grave, the black line stared intently at the "food" that kept jumping around within its attack range as if in a provocative manner, so angry that it almost gritted its teeth.
Unfortunately, if it really had teeth, it probably would have done so long ago.
In the eyes of the black line, the "food" in front of it looked exceptionally sweet and delicious, as if it could be swallowed whole with just a light bite.
However, just now, when it merely extended one of its paws, it was instantly swallowed up and disappeared by the other party.
Only then did it realize why this seemingly weak "food" dared to act so recklessly in front of it—it was because it carried an incredibly powerful protective charm!
Damn it! We'll remember this!
As the saying goes, a gentleman's revenge is never too late, even after ten years!
One day, this arrogant fool will pay a terrible price!
However, that's often the case. Some things always like to keep swaying in front of you, wobbling and swaying... as if they're deliberately provoking you!
What's wrong!
The black line roared angrily, its eyes wide as it stared intently at the other, its anger burning fiercely within it. "You think you're so great just because you have a talisman? Do you really think I won't dare to bite you?"
The black line trembled with rage and extended several more thin tentacles, waving wildly in the air as if ready to launch an attack at any moment.
Hmph! So what if you bit me!
Black Line roared through gritted teeth, "I'm not afraid at all!"
At worst, I'll just get a minor injury; I can afford that loss!
No sooner said than done, just as the black line made up its mind to pounce, a dazzling golden light suddenly flashed.
Immediately afterwards, another golden light suddenly shone brightly, followed by a third, a fourth...
For a moment, golden light flashed incessantly, so bright that people could hardly open their eyes.
After an unknown amount of time, the continuous golden light finally stopped flashing.
Now, looking at that once menacing black line again, it looks like it's about to cry but has no tears.
woo woo woo...
The black line cried pitifully.
What's wrong with you?
How can someone eat so much?!
I've given you so much, yet I still haven't satisfied you?
Look at my legs, you've almost eaten them all!
Meanwhile, Jiang Mianmian, who was not far away, kept turning around and looking at Li Tingxue with great envy.
Golden light continuously shone from Li Tingxue's body, and after each flash, a clear and sweet voice called out, "Little baby."
Jiang Mianmian stared, her eyes wide, muttering to herself, "Oh my, I'm so envious! I wish I could be like her..."
Qin Ru, who stood silently to the side, saw all of this.
She couldn't help but mutter softly, "Hey, do you guys think it's possible that this golden light doesn't actually belong to Li Tingxue, but comes from that Lady Hou?"
Upon hearing this, Li Tingxue, who was basking in her smugness, froze, an expression of disbelief on her face:
"what?!"
Qin Ru looked at Jiang Mianmian, who was burping incessantly, with a suspicious expression, and couldn't help but say, "Isn't Madam Hou burping all the time? That's really strange. Under normal circumstances, who gets fuller the more they walk?"
In my opinion, it's usually only those who are so full that their stomachs are about to burst that they keep burping...
As she spoke, she turned her gaze to Li Tingxue beside her and asked curiously, "What about you? Do you feel like you've eaten enough?"
Li Tingxue: [...]
She said speechlessly, "So all that smugness I was feeling earlier was just my mother-in-law secretly protecting me all along?!"
Thinking of this, when she turned her gaze to Jiang Mianmian again, she suddenly felt an overwhelming urge to look directly at her.
Mother-in-law, please stop staring at me!
Li Tingxue wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground.
Stop watching! Stop watching!
That golden light is yours, if anyone should be 'envious', it should be me.
Oh dear, look at you, isn't this the first burp you've ever let out?
【belch】
Hearing this from Jiang Mianmian's mouth, one couldn't help but wonder:
[Huh, that's really strange. Why do I feel fuller the more I walk?]
No, no, this can't go on. This walk isn't helping at all.
After saying that, she stopped and stopped walking.
Just then, Jiang Mianmian inadvertently turned her head and caught a glimpse of the thick black line above the Shen family's ancestral grave, which had become noticeably thinner!
Upon seeing this, Jiang Mianmian was stunned and couldn't help but cry out:
【Oh my goodness! She's gotten way too thin!】
The golden light emanating from Tingxue was like a bottomless pit, relentlessly devouring the surrounding black lines.
Just how much did they eat?
Why is there still no sign of satisfaction? Could that golden light be a pig?
Li Tingxue: Mother-in-law, are you describing yourself in these words?
A hint of hesitation appeared on Jiang Mianmian's face as she pondered to herself:
Since the things on Tingxue are so greedy, should I stay a little longer and wait until it finishes eating all these black lines before leaving?
This might allow us to see some interesting changes.
"No, I ate too much today, I really don't have the energy to continue my walk."
Li Tingxue seemed to see through Jiang Mianmian's thoughts and quickly said, "Mother-in-law, you've been walking for so long, you must be exhausted. Why don't we go back and rest?"
As she spoke, she looked at Jiang Mianmian with concern, afraid that her mother-in-law would not agree.
Jiang Mianmian hesitated for a moment, then asked softly, "Are you really tired?"
Li Tingxue nodded hurriedly, replying rapidly, "Mmm! So tired!"
Seeing this, Jiang Mianmian finally nodded, indicating her agreement with Li Tingxue's suggestion.
So the two of them walked together toward the carriage parked not far away. "Alright then, let's go back now."
Jiang Mianmian muttered to herself as she walked.
Anyway, that thing is just there; it's not going to grow legs and run away. Even if we let it go for now and deal with it tomorrow, that's perfectly fine.
That's right, we can definitely come back tomorrow!
Li Tingxue gracefully stepped forward and carefully took Jiang Mianmian's arm. The two walked side by side towards the carriage parked at the foot of the mountain.
In the end, they were unable to resolve the strange phenomenon at the Shen family's ancestral graves within a single day.
So, in the days that followed, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would come to the Shen family's ancestral graves every day for a meal.
As time went by, the black line seemed to gradually realize how powerful the two women were, and began to feel fear and retreat.
Whenever it sees Li Tingxue and Jiang Mianmian appear before it, it trembles involuntarily and lets out cries of terror.
ah ah ah ah...
Please, please don't come again!
