The Herbal Scents of Farm Life-Chapter 2916 - 2917: Might Harm Us
"Are we going to stay here and wait for Grandfather to kill us?"
"They’re still so young, dying just like that, who would want to?"
"I want to go outside, I don’t want to stay here and wait for death," the spirit beast on the left said.
"Even if Grandfather doesn’t kill us this time, what about next time, or the time after that? Who knows when we’ll be beaten to death? Just enduring it, we definitely can’t make it through."
"Yeah."
The spirit beast on the right nodded, thinking the same.
Since childhood, watching other spirit beast families, the elders are so loving to the younger ones. But for them, all they received were Grandfather’s punches and kicks.
And their parents’ coldness and distance.
"Twenty-four, I want to go with those people, do you think it’s okay?"
"Those humans?"
Nineteen was stunned, it never thought about going with humans. It thought about leaving with its sibling, not including those humans.
"Twenty-four, why would you think of going with them? They’re humans, they might harm us."
"But outside, there are humans too. At least those are ones we know, and outside ones, we don’t know if they’ll just kill us."
Twenty-four also expressed its thoughts.
Its thinking was quite simple, just wanting to follow those few humans, and as long as it didn’t die, that would be enough.
No matter how tough outside is, it must be better than Qianji Pond, right?
The temptation of fine food, although there is some, life is the most important. Staying in Qianji Pond, they could lose their lives at any moment.
"Anyway, I think following them would at least be safer."
It nodded its large head, telling Nineteen, while also silently reassuring itself that these humans didn’t look like bad people, but the others outside, who knows.
Since they’ve encountered them, they might as well rely on them.
"Moreover, think about it, they were the ones who urged us to steal Grandfather’s treasure. By the time we steal it and place it in front of them, even if they don’t want to take us, they have no choice.
Surely, they wouldn’t watch us return to be beaten to death by Grandfather?
They don’t seem like people with a heart of stone."
"That... makes sense."
After hearing Twenty-four’s words, Nineteen nodded, thinking it was true.
"But we don’t know where Grandfather’s treasure is hidden, and also, what that token even is. How do we find it?"
He was a bit conflicted. Among Grandfather’s many treasures, finding one, what if before Grandfather returns, they still haven’t found it?
Then they’d be doomed.
"There’s nothing difficult about it, watch me, I’ll surely get that token!" Twenty-four patted its chest confidently with its paw.
Right now, it’s just the two of them here, and the forbidden forest won’t be returned to for a while. They have enough time to get Grandfather’s cave things out.
Once they have the things, they’ll go outside the forbidden forest to wait for those humans. Anyway, after stealing the token, those humans won’t be able to stay here anymore and will have to leave the forbidden forest. How great is that?
