Chapter 1777 - 1381: Digging Graves at the Drop of a Hat!

Landuoer’s face became increasingly unpleasant, filled with resentment, embarrassment, and disdain. She had to suppress her noble upbringing and coldly rebuke Gu Changsheng, "How dare you!"

Even though Landuoer shouted those words with false bravado, Gu Changsheng was taken aback, holding the long whip to her lips, looking shocked and frightened...

"I don’t have a savior like you! To put it nicely, you saved me just now, but really, do you think you have the skills to save me? You just got lucky like a blind cat meeting a dead mouse!" Landuoer looked at Gu Changsheng’s stunned expression, obviously someone inexperienced, and immediately snapped.

Gu Changsheng’s mouth twitched. This girl could really twist the truth!

"Even if... even if I was just a blind cat that found a dead mouse, it was still my luck to find it..." Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but retort softly and resentfully to Landuoer’s words...

She was telling the bare truth!

Landuoer wanted to distort the facts, but black is black, and white is white; even if a deer is claimed to be a horse, it’s still a horse, isn’t it?

She saved this girl, and even if this girl wasn’t willing to admit it now, subjective assumptions can’t change objective reality, can they?

It was quite helpless!

"How dare you!" Upon hearing this, Landuoer’s face turned green, pointing the long whip in her hand at Gu Changsheng, and hoarsely shouted, "Who are you calling a dead mouse? How dare you call me a dead mouse!"

Owner?

Upon hearing Landuoer’s self-title, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow...

The title Owner originated in the Central Plains, but rarely used by the people there. The Northern Mongolian emulated Central Plains culture, albeit a bit awkwardly so, but to be called an Owner means their status isn’t low, otherwise, it would be a poor imitation...

So, is this woman a daughter of the Northern Mongolian royal family or a noblewoman granted the title of Owner?

Gu Changsheng was puzzled, blinking her big eyes, pointing the long whip at herself, "Alright, let’s say you’re talking about me..."

Just when Landuoer had decided that if this woman in front of her said another word, she would whip her till her face was blooming!

But unexpectedly, Gu Changsheng softened like that!

Landuoer felt like she was punching cotton, which was quite unsatisfying. Not wanting to waste more time, she gave a cold snort, glared at Gu Changsheng angrily, and then went towards Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue, joining the fray once more!

The wolf pack had already been cut in half in the blink of an eye. If she didn’t perform well, these two exceptionally handsome men wouldn’t see how much more useful she was compared to that woman with just a pretty face!

"Swish!"

"Swish!"

"..."

The sound of the whip was exceptionally loud as the long whip in Landuoer’s hand cut paths of light and fire...

And Gu Changsheng, actually, wasn’t soft at all. She was just tilting her head, examining the brave wolf-hunting Landuoer and speculating about her identity...

She wasn’t familiar with the Northern Mongolian, so naturally, she didn’t know which noble family girl was named Landuoer...

"My lady, are you just going to back out?" Yuan Bao kicked the approaching wolves, moving closer to Gu Changsheng, recalling what his lady previously said about the term "back out", immediately used it cleverly. He thought his lady was up to some tricks when she enthusiastically charged over, who would’ve thought it just ended with her landing a few verbal jabs...

This isn’t right!

This doesn’t seem like his lady’s usual style. If his lady were to bully someone, she would make them suffer without recourse, leaving them trapped, but why did it suddenly stop halfway this time?

Where’s the follow-up?

Where’s the drama?

He had deliberately set up his viewing posture, so why was there no continuation?

"Xiao Er Que..." Gu Changsheng looked at Landuoer’s valiant figure heading towards their evildoer and Shi Wujue, calling Yuan Bao softly, full of grievance...

Upon hearing this long-lasting call, Yuan Bao’s body shivered!

Dear heaven and earth, his lady was about to whirl up something again?

"My lady, that girl was mean to me..." Still in a soft, aggrieved tone, Gu Changsheng accused, "She scolded me for being presumptuous..."

"..." Yuan Bao was taken aback.

This girl was quite bold. Yuan Bao also clearly heard those words of presumption...

But girl, are you sure you can reprimand the Southern Emperor like this without any problem?

May the Buddha protect you, and Longevity Heaven bless you, girl!

"So... So... my lady, what do you want to do?" As he swung his fleshy arms and legs, kicking away several wolves attempting to leap at his lady, Yuan Bao asked with some trepidation...

Why did he start feeling sorry for that girl?

Under normal circumstances, when one’s wife swings a whip, it’s a playful thing... but when someone else does it...

Well, that’s a real beating!

"I don’t want to do anything..." Gu Changsheng said slowly, looking at Landuoer’s back. The pace of his speech was unusually leisurely, "I just feel that that girl is quite lively when killing wolves..."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Bao glanced at that girl through narrowed eyes and couldn’t help but nod.

Indeed, the girl was certainly quite lively in killing wolves!

It was a tacit understanding between his master and Shi Wujue; seeing that their lady was in a playful mood, the wolf-killing was intentionally slowed down. Otherwise, where would there be any chance for that girl to show off her skills? It wouldn’t be surprising if the wolf pack had been wiped out by now!

Weren’t they all silently accompanying their lady in her game?

As long as she’s happy, that’s all that matters. Anyway, the Tashi Tribe isn’t going anywhere, there’s no need to rush madly while traveling!

"But, seeing her killing wolves so happily, moving so swiftly and joyfully, and in such a great mood, why do I feel a bit displeased?" Gu Changsheng frowned.

"Wifey, this is simple. Whoever makes you unhappy, just make their ancestors for eight generations unhappy too. You’ve always done it this way, continue to do so!" Yuan Bao exclaimed, pounding his chest with noble righteousness.

Hearing Yuan Bao’s words, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

Seeing no action from his lady, Yuan Bao blinked, had no choice but to volunteer, and cautiously said, "Lady, you don’t want to do it? No problem, leave it to Yuan Bao, I’ll make sure it’s done beautifully for you!"

"No," Gu Changsheng shook his head watching Yuan Bao’s eager look and seriously said, "I’m just contemplating the feasibility of making her ancestors for eight generations unhappy..."

Yuan Bao: "..."

The whole person felt somewhat unwell...

"It’s too difficult, her ancestors for eight generations have probably already died out four or five generations ago. I’m not interested in digging graves, what a filthy and time-consuming job!" Gu Changsheng exclaimed with an expressive distaste.

Yuan Bao’s round and chubby face twitched! Twitched!

But, as a servant, it’s always necessary to share the master’s burdens, right?

Whatever the master is unwilling to do, it’s the duty of a caring servant to bring joy to the master, isn’t it?

Although grave-digging is rather insidious, if it makes his lady happy, Yuan Bao feels such dastardly deeds are best done by him. Anyway, he doesn’t plan on having descendants, so all this talk of virtue is nonsense!

"Lady, I’ll go dig, just wait and see!" Yuan Bao pounded his chest, taking everything upon himself.

A servant that cannot ease the master’s worries is not a good Yuan Bao!

Yuan Bao promises to be the best servant in the world!

It’s just digging a grave, not a big deal; doing it often enough, you get used to it. As long as the lady is happy!

The low conversation between master and servant couldn’t reach Landuoer’s ears; naturally, although she was nimble, her abilities weren’t at such a high level. But Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue were highly skilled. They accompanied because they saw Gu Changsheng was being playful. They only noticed she kept staring blankly at the countryside, looking quite lonely, so they thought amusing her was a good idea...

But what was initially intended to make her happy, how did it end up with contemplating to dig up someone’s ancestors’ graves?

Yuan Bao was really something, Changsheng made a move, and he would always follow foolishly...

Shi Wujue eyed Zhou Mu with reproach, silently asking, "Is this Yuan Bao yours?"

Zhou Mu’s divine-like face darkened slightly. He returned an exasperated glance, replying silently: this Yuan Bao is indeed his, but he never taught him such grave-digging antics. To be more precise, although he raised Yuan Bao, all these bad habits were developed by his Changsheng...

Look at how obedient he is!

Zhou Mu couldn’t help but glance backward in slight frustration. Well, Changsheng kills, Yuan Bao provides the knife; Changsheng wants to dig graves, Yuan Bao assists. This Yuan Bao of his was becoming insensitive, how could he take over his master’s role like that?

Zhou Mu cast a dissatisfied glance at Yuan Bao...

Yuan Bao intuitively glanced at his master and, by chance, caught his master’s gaze...

That look, how to put it, was very nuanced...

Was it displeasure? Jealousy? Or anger?

Blinking, Yuan Bao touched his nose, thinking he hadn’t really done anything wrong. So why was his master glaring at him? Yuan Bao suddenly felt that his not-so-bright mind was running out of capacity, unable to grasp the deeper meaning behind his master’s gaze...

Just as Yuan Bao racked his brain trying to understand his master’s intention, Gu Changsheng was already striding meteorically towards Landuoer...
