Marrying the Soft-hearted Villain

Chapter 164: Was this the so-called bad luck followed by good luck? (3)



Ruan Qiuqiu was very pleasantly surprised. She carefully looked around the trap and noticed blood stains. She lifted the fat pigeon’s feathers to check. There were also blood stains underneath there.

The pigeon had probably stumbled onto these spiritual energy stones by accident and instinctively swallowed them, but it wasn’t able to fully absorb them and fell down into the trap while flying over it. She guessed that the pigeon hadn’t been in the trap for long and that’s why it was still alive.

The pigeon looked especially intelligent. Had it started its progress towards cultivating? Its limpid beady eyes looked quite pitiful.

Ruan Qiuqiu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She flipped the pigeon upside down and sent spiritual energy through its body to guide it to spit out the spiritual energy stones, then she fed it water with healing effects and a little bit of tuber powder. After seeing it become lively, she stroked its wings. “Go on. Be careful next time. Don’t eat indiscriminately.”

The fat pigeon seemed to have noted down her words. It waved its wing at Ruan Qiuqiu, and then it flapped its wings and flew up. It repeatedly landed and took off several times before disappearing from Ruan Qiuqiu’s sight.

Ruan Qiuqiu used the snow to clean the spiritual energy stones, then she carefully wrapped them up in a small piece of animal skin and put them in her backpack.

In the past few days, Mr. Gray Wolf had been using up spiritual energy stones very quickly. When she woke up this morning, she noticed that there was only one spiritual energy stone left, the one with the strongest spiritual energy.

She had wanted to obtain more spiritual energy stones, but she didn’t expect to run into a pigeon that had accidentally eaten spiritual energy stones as soon as she went out. Her luck was too good.

It seemed that her luck in finding spiritual energy stones had been good since she met Mr. Gray Wolf? Was this the so-called bad luck followed by good luck?

Ruan Qiuqiu smiled, reset the trap, and hoped that she had caught other good things from the other two traps.

Although her luck had improved, something as splendid as a pigeon with spiritual stones in its stomach was something seldom encountered.

There was no disturbance around the second trap. Although there were traces of disturbance around the third trap, there wasn’t any living prey caught in it, only an egg. This egg was about the same size as the one she found last time. Just like the last one, it wasn’t a fertilized egg.

Ruan Qiuqiu was about to give up at this rate. She used to frequently encounter lively little animals, but since she was with the wolf, all the eggs that she touched had no life in them.

Still, her harvest today was very good. Just the small spiritual stones would be enough to support Mr. Gray Wolf for a period of time.

She cleaned the egg, put it in her backpack, reset the trap, and put in a new piece of bait. Ruan Qiuqiu hesitated but still decided to go home first.

Yuan Jue was still in the same sleeping position as when she had left. There was no sign that his wounds had reopened, and the herbs on his severed leg were still fresh.

After confirming that his condition was okay, Ruan Qiuqiu washed the spiritual energy stones and placed them by the head of the bed, next to the untouched healing water.

She rubbed her cold, red ears, drank hot water to warm her stomach, and circulated her spiritual energy several times. Once she felt closer to normal, she put on her backpack and went out again.

Ruan Qiuqiu thought of Qing Ruyi and was somewhat worried.

How were Grandpa Mo and the others doing, right now? Based on Qing Ruyi’s behavior, they probably wouldn’t be in danger. She just didn’t know why Qing Ruyi would suddenly appear here.

As Ruan Qiuqiu rushed towards Grandpa Mo’s cave, she speculated why Qing Ruyi would come here.

Could it be that Grandpa Mo had a relationship with Qing Ruyi when he was young, but they had broken up due to the thoughtless reason that humans and fiends can’t be together?

Even though Qing Ruyi had fiend energy, she looked more like a demon than a fiend. Moreover, she was so powerful, and Grandpa Mo seemed like an ordinary human. How did they fall in love?

And, how could the “Grandma Ruyi” spoken of by Little Yu be the same person as the young and gentle-looking Qing Ruyi?

Ruan Qiuqiu wasn’t able to guess the full story. She silently sped up her pace.
