Chapter 278.2 - The Little Thing Who Is Asking For It
And the reason Qing Yu knew his name was because she once read in the Heavenly Insights of Medicine about a kind of hallucinogen that causes a person’s mind to become fuzzy and their emotions to turn explosively violent. In that prescription formula, it seemed that one of the herbs mentioned was the Earth Fire Devil Vine.
She had not thought that the little thing would be able to concoct medicine as well!
Those thoughts were on Qing Yu’s mind as she looked into the eyes of the small creature before her, and an evil glint soon crept into her eyes.
The little toddler could not help but feel a chill run up his spine and he shifted his feet to move to one side. “Mistress….. Why are you looking at me like that…..”
“It’s nothing. I just thought that you looked rather adorable.” Qing Yu said smilingly, and then suddenly seemed to have thought of something. She arched up an eyebrow and then asked the little thing: “Aren’t you that seed embedded in the Heavenly Insights of Medicine? How did you become its book spirit as well? ?”
The little toddler sat itself down on the floor as it shook its big round head, its face aggrieved as it began to say with a helpless sigh: “I am originally a book spirit, but I was trapped inside that seed and could not get out from there. Time passed and year after year went by. I ended waiting in there for a whole three thousand years, watching the Heavenly Insights into Medicine being handed down from one generation to the next, but no one ever noticed my existence, and even used me…..”
Speaking up till that point, the little toddler became highly agitated, his eyes filling up with endless aggrievement and sadness. “Even used me as a decorative ornament!”
When Qing Yu heard that, she could not help but burst out laughing. But seeing how angry the little toddler was, she quickly suppressed it down.
Mm, better not add salt to his wounds. That wouldn’t be very nice.
“But in the end, I was finally able to meet you, my Mistress. You were the one who enabled me to be able to break out from imprisonment, to regain my freedom.”
Qing Yu was a little bewildered. “Me?”
She did not remember having done anything?
“Does Mistress remember how you accidentally cut your finger on the seed I was in? It is because I drank Mistress’ blood that I was able to break out from imprisonment.”
Her blood?
“Isn’t it said that the Earth Fire Devil Vine would go berserk and transform after drinking human blood?” Qing Yu asked in surprise.
“Has Mistress forgotten that you are descended from an extremely rare and the purest bloodline? Not only did Mistress’ blood prevent me from going through a violent transformation, it even cleansed away the devilry in my body.”The little toddler smiled and explained.
Qing Yu nodded her head in understanding as she looked down at her hands. Her blood was really something. No wonder she had always attracted so many strange things ever since she was very young.
“Little thing, when do you think Little Burrow will be able to wake up?”
Qing Yu then asked as she looked at the golden haired figure lying quietly asleep with his eyes closed.
