Chapter 212 Borrowed a few geese

Standing next to Shen Youqing, the enticing aroma of the duck legs wafted into my nose.

Shen Xingzhi twitched her nose, her stomach growling with each sniff.

Seeing her older sister's gaze fall on the duck leg, a sly glint appeared in Shen Youqing's eyes. She deliberately waved the duck leg in front of Shen Xingzhi.

"This is a duck leg that's first braised and then roasted until dry, it's crispy and flavorful." After saying that, Shen Youqing lowered his head and took a bite of the duck leg in his hand.

Seeing her mischievous younger sister deliberately trying to tempt her, Shen Xingzhi raised her hand and poked her head, saying in a playful tone, "Hand over the duck leg and I won't beat you up!"

With a flick of Shen Youqing's hand, a plate appeared on the table.

Shen Xingzhi didn't stand on ceremony and picked up the duck leg from the plate to start eating heartily.

After being tormented by the secret realm for more than a month, everyone went back to rest one after another. After Shen Youqing finished drawing the talisman, only she and Xie Changyan, the supervisor, remained at the training ground.

After Xie Changyan nodded to indicate that she could leave, Shen Youqing quickly packed her things and left.

Her brother and Shen Quelin were so tired, she had to get them something good to eat to help them recover.

Seeing Shen Youqing leave in the direction of the teleportation array, Xie Changyan had a feeling that something bad was going to happen.

Yao Feng.

Abundant spiritual energy nurtured the spiritual plants covering the mountains and fields, and countless disciples were busy in the medicinal fields.

When Shen Youqing swaggered in with the ghost infant in his left hand and the snow crystal purple-eyed cat in his right, the disciples busy in the nearby medicinal fields all wore speechless and helpless expressions.

Why is she here again?
Didn't she just come here a couple of days ago?

How can such a petite girl eat so much?

Zhou Jinxing, who was in charge of these medicinal herb fields, couldn't help but tease Shen Youqing, who was strolling along the field ridge, "You don't even try to hide from people anymore?"

She used to sneak over in the dead of night, but now she comes in broad daylight. Is she planning to go from petty theft to outright robbery?
"Ahem." Shen Youqing coughed twice, looking guilty, but his words were so self-righteous, "I came to borrow two geese."

Zhou Jinxing pointed at himself and Shen Youqing and said, "Fellow Daoist Shen, do you think I'm a fool?"

This isn't borrowing; any chickens, ducks, or geese that end up in her hands will only meet one fate!
She's the epitome of someone who borrows and never repays!

Shen Youqing gave an awkward smile, then, glancing out of the corner of his eye at the camellia tree that was stealthily moving around, he continued to stall for time, "This..."

Zhou Jinxing just stared at Shen Youqing quietly, waiting to see what other nonsense she could come up with.

"Senior Brother Zhou! She's attacked that camellia tree again!!"

As soon as one of his disciples shouted, Shen Youqing, who was standing on the edge of the field, turned and ran.

"See you later!"

The clear, bell-like sound was cheerful and joyful.

Watching the person and the flower running wildly, Zhou Jinxing felt both amused and exasperated.

She really never tires of using this feint attack tactic!
The disciples busy in the herb field weren't angry, but rather felt a sense of helpless bewilderment.

A short while later, several disciples strode up to Zhou Jinxing's side.

"It's the same as before. Except for three spirit geese missing from the medicinal herb field, none of the spiritual plants are damaged." After saying that, the disciple handed over a storage bag he had picked up from the field.

Zhou Jinxing waved his hand and said to his disciples, "You guys divide up the work and get back to work."

After the disciples finished distributing the spirit stones from their storage bags, they went to work.

Ever since Shen Youqing set his sights on the chickens, ducks, and geese in the herb field, almost all the disciples there have made a small fortune.

Each time Shen Youqing took a few spirit beasts, she would leave a sum of spirit stones as compensation. In addition, she never damaged any spirit plants during her visits, thus not adding any burden to her disciples.

Therefore, these disciples did not have a bad impression of her; at most, they just thought she was a bit mischievous.

Moreover, they sincerely hoped that Shen Youqing would visit more often.

After all, no one dislikes spirit stones.

Zhou Jinxing used a communication talisman to contact the Criminal Hall.

No sooner had Shen Youqing left than Xie Changyan and a group of disciples from the Punishment Hall arrived. Zhou Jinxing gave a businesslike account of the stolen spirit goose incident.

"What's she after?" a disciple from the Punishment Hall couldn't help but ask while taking notes. "Is it fun?"

I really don't understand this direct transmission of the Hehuan Sect!
Zhou Jinxing shrugged.

Seeing Zhou Jinxing's calm demeanor, another disciple from the Punishment Hall asked in surprise, "You rarely remain so calm when those spirit beasts are stolen."

Previously, when the spirit beasts in the herb field were stolen, this Senior Brother Zhou would be furious and look like he wanted to eat the person who stole them.

He's changed this time; he didn't get angry at all.

Looking at the spiritual plants growing in the wind in the medicinal field, Zhou Jinxing said in a calm tone, "None of the spiritual plants were lost. That Fellow Daoist Shen was a bit unruly, but he didn't add any extra burden to us. At most, we just need to prepare more spiritual beasts."

Shen Youqing wasn't the only one stealing spirit beasts.

But the only one who could avoid adding to their burden was Shen Youqing.

It doesn't matter who steals from him, he still prefers Shen Youqing to come, since the spiritual plants in the herb field won't be harmed.

"You say she has no sense of propriety, but she knows to avoid spiritual plants. You say she has sense of propriety, but she's been on the notice board for a month."

The disciples of the Punishment Hall quickly registered the matter, said a few words to Zhou Jinxing, and prepared to leave.

Xie Changyan also planned to bother his master again.

In just one month, the number of times he saw his master increased dramatically.

When Zhang Youli saw Xie Changyan arrive again, he didn't even need to think to know why his disciple had come: "Have the spirit beasts in the herb field been stolen again?"

“This is outright robbery.” Xie Changyan raised his hand in a salute.

Zhang Youli: ...

"Sixty intermediate-level talismans, to be drawn before midnight tonight." Zhang Youli didn't even bother to lift his eyelids. "Chen Ying and the others are back. How are they?"

Xie Changyan gave a brief explanation and then went to Erjie Peak.

The Hehuan Clan's ancestral courtyard.

"Qingqing, I know you're heartbroken about the hardships they endured in the secret realm," Xiao Ke said, blocking the kitchen doorway and preventing Shen Youqing from entering. "But leave the soup-making to me."

First, her intentions were good; second, she could have chosen not to start cooking.

"I'm just making a soup." Shen Youqing said sternly, refusing to believe it. "I just don't believe a soup can taste bad!"

Xiao Ke silently reached out and took the geese from Shen Youqing's hands.

Seeing his silent refusal, Shen Youqing sternly spoke up, "Senior brother!"

Xiao Ke sincerely felt that her senior brothers and sisters and her two older brothers did not deserve to die.

"Shen Youqing, draw the talisman."

Xie Changyan arrived just in time. Xiao Ke saw Shen Youqing turn around and immediately went to the kitchen.

"Sixty intermediate-level talismans, to be completed before midnight tonight," Xie Changyan said coldly.

Shen Youqing said "Oh," and when she turned around, she saw that the kitchen door had already been closed, and the way it was guarded against thieves made her grit her teeth in anger.

When Yue Xunzhu, who was the first to finish her meditation, came out of the house, she saw Shen Youqing drawing talismans in the courtyard.

When he saw Xie Changyan next to him, he immediately realized what was going on.

Jinjin has been punished again.

Yue Xunzhu walked up and, after Shen Youqing finished drawing the talismans for his subordinates, asked with amusement, "What have you been up to all afternoon?"

"I borrowed a few geese." Shen Youqing smiled and looked at Yue Xunzhu.

Oh, so you went and stole a few geese.

"Blatant robbery," the cold voice corrected. "Three of them."

Yue Xunzhu, who was standing next to him, laughed.
