C30 Unlucky Rabbit

Lu Zheng looked at Zuo Shaoqing's empty hands and didn't understand his intention for coming here. Since this person had come, couldn't he bring some food along with him?

Zuo Shaoqing didn't receive Lu Zheng's resentment at all. When he realized that only two of the six big sesame seed cakes and six big meat buns remained, he couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

He looked at Lu Zheng's stomach and really wanted to go up and feel if it was a bottomless pit.

"Ahem, I'm sorry, I was just thinking of going up to take a look. The shops are not doing business at this time of the year." In fact, there was always a night market for every fifteen years of Youuxi Town, and today, it just so happened to be fifteen.

Lu Zheng noticed Zuo Shaoqing's curved lips and eyes as bright as the stars. He knew that Zuo Shaoqing must have met with some good fortune, so he didn't poke a hole through his clumsy lie.

Although that young man would smile every time he saw him, that smile did not reach his eyes. It was as if a mask was hung on his face, and tonight, that smile was much more real.

Zuo Shaoqing clapped his hands and suggested, "Why don't you go up the mountain later and catch a rabbit to roast?" He was greatly amused. Without waiting for Lu Zheng's nod, he swept up a gust of wind and dashed out of the door.

The mountain road that had just been raining was slippery and wet. Zuo Shaoqing's high spirits disappeared after he fell down for the third time. At this moment, he didn't even see a shadow of a wild game.

He had thought that with his current Qing Gong, catching hare and pheasant would be easy.

Lu Zheng, who was leaning on the bed, said to the air, "Yinyi, go help him. Don't be found out."

"Yes."

Zuo Shaoqing was a bit discouraged. After circling the forest twice without any gains, he was unwilling to return empty-handed. He had already boasted in front of Lu Zheng. Wouldn't it be a joke if he returned without anything?

After walking lightly into the jungle for another hundred meters, water droplets would occasionally fall from the tree. Zuo Shaoqing couldn't bear the disturbance and was about to shake after taking a few steps.

After walking for a quarter of an hour and still not finding any traces of wild animals, Zuo Shaoqing kicked on the tree trunk in frustration. Rain began to fall from the tree, splattering all over Zuo Shaoqing's body.

As a result, Third Master Zuo, who was originally depressed, was about to go crazy.

Yinyi, who was hiding on a tree, looked at the childish young man in disbelief. He couldn't believe that this young man was the savior of his master.

He quietly untied the rabbit he caught earlier and threw it towards a tree trunk behind Zuo Shaoqing.

A "peng" sound rang clearly in the dark night. Zuo Shaoqing turned his head and saw a rabbit hit a tree trunk and fall softly onto the ground.

His eyes lit up. Was this what it meant to be a sitting duck? Isn't his luck a little too good?

Zuo Shaoqing picked up the rabbit and put it in front of his eyes. The unlucky rabbit still had one last breath left, so it limped on its four short legs and laughed towards the sky. "Unlucky guy, why don't you have eyes when you're walking?"

Zuo Shaoqing never would have thought that someone would specially catch a rabbit and throw it in front of him in such a dark night and such a dense forest.

Returning to the thatched cottage, Zuo Shaoqing waved the rabbit in front of Lu Zheng as if he was offering a treasure, "Look, what a big fat rabbit!"

Lu Zheng couldn't bear to look at the proud expression on his face and said lightly: "Go and kill him."

"Ah?" Wasn't he dead? How do we kill them? " Zuo Shaoqing was confused.

Lu Zheng's eyes twitched, and asked in a low voice: "Didn't you want to roast the rabbit? Do you want to eat them raw? " Truly useless as a scholar!

Zuo Shaoqing lowered his hand that was holding the rabbit. He was just thinking about roasting the rabbit, but he forgot.

Lu Zheng knew from his expression that it was impossible to make a bookworm who only knew how to read.

"Skin the rabbit skin and clean its innards."

Zuo Shaoqing responded. He found the only carving knife in the hut and carried the rabbit outside to dissect it.

Killing was easy, but cleaning up a rabbit was not that easy.

Lu Zheng waited in the room for three minutes before Zuo Shaoqing came in with a terrifying looking rabbit. Instantly, he lost all appetite.

"And then?" Zuo Shaoqing asked shyly.

"Go and increase the fire in the charcoal brazier and find a branch to string up the rabbits and roast them, do you understand?" Lu Zheng already had no hope for this supper.

Fortunately, there was Yinyi right now, and he didn't have to worry about his hunger. Otherwise, he really wouldn't be willing to waste a rabbit on Zuo Shaoqing.

Zuo Shaoqing ordered and acted. He quickly put the rabbit on the brazier and stared at it.

"Remember to flip every now and then." Lu Zheng sat cross-legged on the bed and gave Zuo Shaoqing the last command before he closed his eyes and began to heal his wounds.

Zuo Shaoqing twitched his mouth and shifted his gaze from the rabbit to Lu Zheng. There was a clear comparison between the handsome and upright Young Master Lu and a skinned rabbit. Thus, Zuo Shaoqing gradually stopped paying attention to the rabbit on the brazier.

Roast meat was a delicate process. Zuo Shaoqing switched his left hand to his right hand, and after ten times, the rabbit's skin only changed color.

When he opened his eyes, he saw the teenager supporting his chin with one hand and holding a branch with the other. At the end of the branch was a rabbit, and half of it had already fallen into the brazier. The oil dripped into the fire, making a crackling sound.

He sighed and got off the bed. He snatched the half-burnt rabbit from Zuo Shaoqing's hands, and facing Zuo Shaoqing's confused eyes, he actually felt that he was innocent like this. Therefore, he passed the roasted rabbit over playfully: "Do you want to eat it?"

Zuo Shaoqing's face turned red as he looked at the lump of rabbit meat. He stood up and took a step back, "No …" Be Late and Not Hungry... "Please enjoy!" After saying his goodbyes, he fled without even saying goodbye.

Lu Zheng watched as his back quickly disappeared into the night. He rubbed his chin and thought to himself, "I didn't expect this young man to know Qing Gong. It seems like I have underestimated him."

Zuo Shaoqing didn't realize that he had used Qing Gong to escape in front of Lu Zheng until he rushed down the mountain. Although this wasn't a secret that couldn't be told, he still didn't dare to believe that he had done such a shameful thing.

He turned around and looked at the dark mountain. He was extremely regretful about his performance just now. He should have stuffed the rabbit into Lu Zheng's mouth to see if he still dared to laugh at him.

Zuo Shaoqing secretly entered his own courtyard, took off his clothes and went to sleep. He planned to pretend that nothing had happened, and hazily thought: How about I have Lil 'Six deliver the food tomorrow.

In the thatched cottage, Yinyi walked out from the shadows and cleaned up the room. Then he placed a rabbit he cleaned on the brazier and turned it over skillfully. Soon, the smell of roasting meat came from inside the house.

Lu Zheng stood up and walked around the house a few times, then ordered Yinyi: "Go and check the Zuo Family."

"Yes." Yinyi had already listed someone with surname Zuo as the target of his investigation. This was probably the only person in the world who could be treated like this by his master. He cleaned up the house, hid in the darkness again, and soon disappeared into the forest.

​

Tomorrow, the eleventh, the first branch of the tree, the branch of the tree, the branch of the tree, the branch of the tree, the branch of the tree, the branch of the tree, the branch of the tree, the branch of the tree, the branch of the tree.
