However, the method of laughter did have a miraculous effect, and the resentment on Haitang's face was no longer so heavy in an instant.
Peony just gave me a symbolic eye roll and didn't say anything else to me.
I hurriedly followed him at a trot. Since I couldn't defeat him, I would blend in.
What was originally a one-day journey has now become two days, and it's still night. I don't know why these two girls are so brave.
I thought that following them would slow down the progress, but I didn't expect these two girls to walk faster than me. On the contrary, it was a little difficult for me to follow.
"What? Can't walk?" Haitang looked at me with a smirk.
"Yes, the two sisters are very capable, but I can't keep up." They are fools to confront each other, so I must lower my attitude.
"Huh, let's see if you dare to look down on others." Mudan scolded me.
But having said that, the two of them obviously slowed down.
It seems that my decision was right. Since they followed this trick, I won't be too upset for the rest of the journey.
Anyway, when climbing, I pretended that I couldn’t climb and let them pull me. When going downhill, I pretended that my center of gravity was unstable and asked them to wait for me.
In a word, I tried my best to belittle my own strength and fully satisfy their feminism.
"Why are you so stupid? How can you save people like this?" Finally, after Haitang helped me again, she couldn't help but speak.
"The master also said that my qualifications are dull. If I hadn't lost my parents since I was a child, and my grandparents had passed away one after another, the master wouldn't be willing to take me in. I'm sorry for making my two sisters laugh..." I said and pretended to cry, but that was it anyway. Who doesn't know how to pretend to be pitiful?
"Okay, okay, don't cry..." When I said this, both of them couldn't stand it anymore, and they came up to me and patted my back gently to express comfort.
"It's a blessing that my two sisters helped me, otherwise I wouldn't know how I died this time." I pretended to wipe away tears, but it was actually my saliva when I lowered my head.
"Don't worry, we will protect you." Haitang looked at me with sympathy.
"We will help you rescue people. Haitang's father also taught me." Mudan also became tender.
"Then I'll leave it to you two sisters." I looked like I was crying, feeling both aggrieved and grateful.
"Okay, let's go." Haitang smiled and helped me up.
Looking at Peony again, there is no trace of hostility toward me.
The little plan worked. I felt very good and my steps became much lighter.
The two of them thought they had succeeded in comforting me and started laughing along with me.
"Okay, let's go here for the time being. Let's take a rest and try to arrive before dark tomorrow." Haitang looked around and decided to recuperate first.
"You two sisters, rest while I stand guard." I took the initiative to resign.
"Forget it, you can rest, I'll keep watch." Unexpectedly, Mudan frowned and refused.
"Sister took such good care of me along the way, how can I make you work so hard? Let me do this rough work, and you can have a good rest." I tried my best to comfort her, and I even believed it myself.
"Well, if you can't hold it anymore, call us." Haitang started to feel sorry for me again.
"Don't worry, I'm still counting on my two sisters to help me save people. How can you do it if you don't get a good rest." I patted my chest and looked confident.
Seeing the two sleeping next to the campfire with smiles on their faces, I couldn't help but smile proudly.
I found a big tree nearby and climbed up, adjusted to a comfortable position, and then I called Wei Yucheng out.
"Master, why do you have to do this to yourself?" Wei Yucheng couldn't help but complain as soon as he showed up.
"You don't understand. Don't let them see you. Wake me up when it's time to leave." I was laughing with my eyes closed.
Since I want to perform badly, of course I can't let Wei Yucheng come out. How can I continue to act with such a level of protective spirit ghost around me.
Although Wei Yucheng didn't know why, he still followed my instructions and woke me up before the two women woke up.
I quickly stretched, moved my facial muscles, and then raised my hands to rub my face vigorously, trying to look tired.
"Xiaotian?" Haitang opened her eyes and looked for me.
"Sister, I'm here." I smiled and jumped down from the tree.
As soon as I landed, I deliberately yawned.
"You didn't sleep all night?" Mudan also looked at me distressedly.
"Sleep? For the safety of the two sisters, how can I sleep? Let alone sleep, I can give up my life." I said seriously.
But it seemed like the scene was a little overdone, why were they blushing?
"You take a rest, I'll go find something to eat." Haitang bit her lip before getting up and running away.
"Sit down and rest quickly. Close your eyes and sleep for a while." Peony also urged me and started to add firewood to the bonfire, probably to get me some hot food.
"Yeah, thank you for your hard work, sister." I smiled and closed my eyes, but I couldn't sleep, I was already full.
"He is so pitiful..." After a while, Haitang came back.
"Yes, we shouldn't treat him like that. I didn't expect that he doesn't even have any relatives." Mudan also became sad.
"Then why don't you keep him and let your father marry you to him." Haitang teased with a smile.
"I don't want to, let your mother marry you to him." Mudan counterattacked with a smile.
Auntie, I heard this very clearly. I don’t know whether they blushed or not, but my heart was pounding anyway.
"Look at how skinny he is, let him eat more later." Haitang began to pity me again.
"Yeah, yeah, I'll feed your man until he's fat and white, just like you." Mudan's words made me shiver all over.
"Your man..." Haitang smiled, as if he had hit Peony.
"Your man..." Mudan seemed to stand up and fight back.
I really shouldn't have pretended to be asleep. Now I was pretending to be in pain. I wanted to turn over, but I didn't dare to move. I just listened to the two girls fighting and making me blush. From time to time, some words came out of my mouth that made me blush.
I finally endured it until the aroma hit my nostrils, and I was lightly tapped on my shoulder.
"Huh?" I looked at him pretending to be sleepy.
"You can eat now." Haitang blushed and looked at me tenderly.
"Thank you, sisters, did I sleep for a long time?" I really shouldn't imitate Heizi and tell lies. This is too painful.
"No, no, just for a little while." Peony comforted me with a smile.
"Come and eat, I shot a hare." Haitang had already taken out a knife and started to cut the meat.
As soon as I stood up, the biggest piece was handed to me.
"You gave it all to me, what do you want to eat?" I wasn't acting when I said this.
"It's okay, you're so thin, you should eat more." Mudan smiled and took the piece of meat Haitang handed her.
"Then you eat this." I said, opening the bag and taking out the dry food.
"What is this?" The second girl saw the packaging and became curious.
I forgot that they have never been exposed to the outside world. If I was trying to make them not be hostile to me before, I really feel sorry for them now.
"And this, this is delicious." I said and took out another chocolate.
I helped them unpack the food and watched them eating with smiles on their faces. Something seemed strange in my heart.
I don’t know if it’s my imagination, but the way the two of them looked at me seemed a little different.
But compared to this dry food and chocolate, I prefer the delicious roasted hare in front of me.
When the two of them saw that I was eating happily, they simply gave me their share and ate all the solid food.
"It's so delicious..." Haitang licked her lips, still not satisfied.
"It's so sweet." Peony looked at the wrapping paper in her hand, not knowing what she was thinking.
When we hit the road again, the atmosphere of this three-person team completely changed. The two girls pulled me to talk and laugh, and I seemed to have become their sister.
Once we were in a good mood, it was easier to start the journey. We successfully arrived near the location marked on the map before dark.
"Two sisters, thank you for your hard work. You guys take a rest and I'll go explore the road." At this time, it's my turn to show off.
"You rest, I'll go." The two of them actually spoke at the same time.
"It's okay, I'll explore the way." I was a little embarrassed, and naturally they were too.
Taking advantage of the gap between the two of them looking at each other, I trotted into the woods ahead.
With Wei Yucheng here, it is really not difficult to determine the location of the ghost market.
Although it is not dark yet, there are dense woods in the direction of the ghost market, and the sunlight is basically not able to penetrate much.
Under the guidance of Wei Yucheng, I gradually approached the ghost market. I didn't stop until I could see the strong evil spirit in the forest.
"We can't go any further. The ghost market hasn't opened yet, but there are many ghosts." If I were discovered, things would become troublesome.
"I'll go take a look." Wei Yucheng said and jumped out.
