Think about it every day

Chapter 387

Inside the Ore mine.

A fiery red Qilin leaped out from Zhong Qing’s arm.

“Master, what are your commands?”

Qilin Xiao Hei asked respectfully.

His words were filled with excitement.

Since swallowing the exotic flame last time and Awakening his Divine Ability, after showing off a bit in front of his Master, he hadn’t had a chance to act again.

Qilin Xiao Hei had naturally been observing Zhong Qing’s experiences these past few days.

A group of ant-like existences dared to make his great Master mine Ore.

This was truly unbearable.

Today, his Master summoned him, and he felt that his Master’s patience had run out.

That’s why he was summoned, ready to go on a rampage.

He had long been prepared for this.

One could even say he was always ready.

Just for his Master’s summons.

Facing the excited Qilin, Zhong Qing glanced at him in surprise, not understanding what this guy was so excited about.

He pointed at the Ore mine.

“I’m giving you a task: mine ten thousand catties of Ore every day.”

“No more, no less, exactly ten thousand catties every day.”

At once, Qilin Xiao Hei was dumbfounded.

He, a dignified Qilin, was called out just to… mine Ore!

His heart!

It truly felt like a rollercoaster.

Plunging directly from the clouds to the bottom of the valley.

“Hmm?”

Zhong Qing looked at Qilin Xiao Hei: “You’re not willing?”

Feeling his Master’s gaze, Qilin Xiao Hei’s eyes darted away.

He forced a smile and said, “Master’s command is above all else.”

“It is Qilin Xiao Hei’s honor for Master to have a task for him. How could Qilin Xiao Hei be so ungrateful and unwilling?”

To prove he wasn’t an ungrateful Qilin, he immediately began digging at the Ore mine in front of him with his claws.

“Big Brother, what are you doing?”

Just then, another voice rang out.

Xiao Ga also flew out, looking at the digging Qilin with a face full of confusion and incomprehension.

At this, the Qilin almost couldn’t maintain his composure.

He had finally managed to gain a little brother.

Now that his little brother saw him digging Ore, where was his Qilin dignity, where was his face as a Big Brother?

But then he had another thought.

He couldn’t refuse his Master’s command.

As a Big Brother, could he refuse his little brother’s command?

Naturally, he couldn’t refuse.

Thinking of this, the Qilin’s eyes lit up.

He looked at Xiao Ga with fervent eyes.

“Mm-hmm!”

He cleared his throat.

Standing ramrod straight, he tried his best to exude the majesty of a Big Brother.

And sure enough, Xiao Ga really fell for the Qilin’s act.

Seeing his Big Brother so heroic and imposing, little stars almost sparkled in his eyes.

Seeing this, the Qilin smiled confidently.

“Xiao Ga, I have a task for you now!”

Xiao Ga flapped his wings, flying onto a piece of Ore.

Then he folded his wings, like a small person cupping his fists.

His large eyes were filled with a sense of purpose and mission.

“Big Brother, please command.”

Qilin Xiao Hei’s smile grew even wider: “Good attitude, commendable!”

He pointed at the Ore mine: “You will be responsible for digging out ten thousand catties of Ore every day, no more, no less.”

“Do you have the confidence to complete this task?”

“Guaranteed to complete the task!”

Xiao Ga’s reply was firm and powerful, filled with a sense of sacredness and mission.

This scene made Zhong Qing’s mouth twitch slightly.

It felt like these two were playing house.

And they were having a blast.

Perhaps that’s what they mean by ‘silly children have more fun’!

He said nothing.

He just took out his wine gourd from his Small World and took a few gulps of wine.

Then he sat aside, closed his eyes, and took a nap.

At this moment, Xiao Ga was fully immersed in mining.

Sometimes scratching with his claws, sometimes pecking with his small beak, sometimes fanning with his wings.

Although this little guy had only recently been born, he possessed some Divine Ability.

Ore that was difficult for even those in the Three Yin Three Yang Realm to mine required little effort for him.

But his body was too small.

And his body hadn’t fully developed yet.

Ten thousand catties of Ore was still a bit strenuous for him.

In less than half an hour, sweat even began to bead on his forehead.

At this moment, the Qilin’s voice sounded from the side.

“Xiao Ga, is the task too difficult? If you can’t complete it, there’s no need to force yourself.”

“At most, Big Brother will just be a little disappointed.”

“Big Brother, it’s not difficult, this task is not difficult at all!”

Xiao Ga got anxious.

As Big Brother’s little brother, how could he disappoint Big Brother?

At once, he worked even harder.

His large, gem-like eyes were full of drive.

His small body exuded a strong sense of mission.

Seeing this, the Qilin was extremely satisfied!

This little brother was not taken in vain; when there was something to do, he truly stepped up!

And when Xiao Ga saw the satisfied look on the Qilin’s face.

He felt as if he had been injected with chicken blood, full of vigor.

Every praise, every encouragement, every affirmation from Big Brother was the highest honor and reward for him.

Then, Xiao Ga’s wings became worn down, and his claws were scraped raw.

His originally majestic fur became dusty and dull.

His entire body was filthy.

He looked like a beggar among birds.

However, Xiao Ga paid no attention to his own changes.

After completing the task, he was like a victorious warrior, awaiting the Qilin’s praise.

The latter, seeing this, gave a rather half-hearted compliment.

“Well done!”

In an instant, Xiao Ga’s gem-like eyes curved into crescent moons.

The Qilin’s praise intoxicated him.

What was this physical exhaustion?

As long as Big Brother said the word, Xiao Ga would be more than willing to die for him.

“Big Brother, can I continue mining tomorrow?”

Xiao Ga liked the Qilin’s praise.

Although the labor was tiring, everything was worth it.

He even looked forward to mining the next day.

“Yes!”

To this, the Qilin replied.

“Absolutely.”

“As long as Master doesn’t stop you, you can mine ten thousand catties of Ore here every day from now on.”

At once, Xiao Ga felt that Qilin Xiao Hei was the best Big Brother in the world.

If only time could continue to cycle like this, that would be wonderful.

He even looked at Zhong Qing with pitiful, large eyes.

“Master, can I mine ten thousand catties of Ore here every day, forever?”

Zhong Qing, who had just finished his nap, heard this slightly naive and innocent remark and looked up at the sky, speechless.

He suspected that this silly bird might have some serious mental issues.

For others, life in the mine was undoubtedly extremely painful.

But judging by this little guy’s expression, he was clearly enjoying it!

He even seemed to be enjoying himself so much that he forgot about home.

Indeed, the bigger the forest, the more kinds of birds there are.

If all birds were ranked, this silly bird would definitely be at the top.

He didn’t say yes, nor did he say no.

Xiao Ga, not getting a clear answer, was a bit unhappy.

His duck-like beak pouted for an entire afternoon.

Finally, Qilin Xiao Hei asked with a dark face: “Who are you giving that sour face to?”

Only then did Xiao Ga suppress the grievance in his heart.

He kept apologizing to Qilin Xiao Hei: “Big Brother, I’m sorry, I was wrong!”

This scene made Zhong Qing unable to help but laugh.
