Chapter 140 Chihuahua.
But the memory of being forcibly fed roasted meat in the game still made him somewhat timid when facing Qi Min.
"Yes, you'll be staying here tonight. You can choose your own rooms, but it's best if two people share a room so you can take turns keeping watch."
Qi Min glanced at the sky before answering Liu Yan's question, speaking in a somewhat admonishing tone.
"Then...may I share a room with you? I can keep watch all night!"
Upon hearing Qi Min's words, Liu Yan immediately took the initiative to respond, appearing very proactive.
Qi Min glanced at Liu Yan, nodded indifferently, and then seemingly casually picked a room that was relatively close to the front.
Before long, the other insects began to pair up and choose their rooms.
The old village chief also arrived with the promised chicken and food, followed by three other people.
An old woman, a middle-aged man, and... a person who disappeared at the village entrance.
"Kids, come out quickly! The food is ready. Come out and eat it while it's hot!"
With a smile on his face, the old village chief carried the prepared food into the house, placed it on the only large table in the main room, and began to loudly greet Qi Min and the others.
Hearing his shout, everyone came out of the room. Qi Min was about to go out when he heard a scream outside, followed by some shouting and the old village chief's confusion.
"What's wrong? Why are you shouting, baby?"
"Ahhh, he he he he..."
A male insect leaned against the wall, his hand trembling as he pointed at a tall man, his eyes filled with terror.
The tall Xiong Jingyu just looked at him with a slightly gloomy expression, without saying a word, his eyes scanning left and right as if searching for something.
"Him? What about him? Isn't he your companion? He said he was late, so I brought him along... What, you don't recognize him?"
The old village chief looked at the person he was pointing at and asked with some confusion.
But this doubt seemed to be merely superficial; although the old village chief's tone and expression were questioning,
However, his eyes were unusually calm, which seemed slightly strange.
As soon as Qi Min appeared at the door, he was locked onto by Xiong Jingyu's searching gaze, who stared intently at him.
Qi Min ignored the hint of malice in his eyes, took a few steps forward, looked at the chicken soup on the table, and kept praising it.
"This soup smells so good! No wonder it's from chickens raised in the mountains. It smells amazing. Village chief, do you have any steamed buns or anything? I'd like to dip them in the soup later. Grandma, let me help you."
Qi Min seemed oblivious to the male insect's panicked reaction and the old village chief's puzzled expression.
He calmly took the food from the old woman next to him, arranged it for her, and completely ignored Xiong Jingyu, who was standing to the side, coldly watching him.
"Qi, Min..."
Xiong Jingyu called out the name of the person in front of him word by word, his expression slightly gritted.
He never expected that Qi Min would suddenly launch a sneak attack on him so soon after entering the dungeon. The unexpected attack killed him on the spot before he could even react.
Fortunately, the two worlds had been merged by the dungeon, and after losing his physical body, he was forced to return to that shrine.
The copy that held most of the control immediately sensed his return. After understanding the situation, it could only grit its teeth and use its energy again to restore him, allowing him to reappear at the village entrance.
He was also told that Qi Min was no longer the novice he once was when he entered the instance, and that Xiong Jingyu should not underestimate him. If he failed again, the instance would not be able to help him recover.
"Huh? Brother Xiong! Why are you only getting here now? I told you not to stay up so late, but you just wouldn't listen."
We've been here for ages and you're only just getting here now? Your attitude is so unhelpful!
We're here to teach in rural areas, not to play around. If you're still going to have that kind of unserious attitude, then you should go back now!
Qi Min seemed to only just notice Xiong Jingyu, his face showing surprise and relief, before he began to accuse him in a reproachful manner.
"I……"
Xiong Jingyu's originally gloomy expression froze, and he looked at Qi Min in front of him with disbelief. Qi Min was completely different from the Qi Min in his memory.
He wanted to speak, but Qi Min didn't give him the chance at all. He changed the subject and started talking to the old village chief.
"Otherwise, if the work isn't done well, it will delay the children's studies and education in the village! That would be terrible, don't you think so, old village chief?"
Qi Min frowned slightly, looking worried and dissatisfied, and asked the old village chief for his approval in a serious tone.
"Qi Wawa is right! You're here to teach in our village, so you need to be serious about your work!"
Seeing Qi Min's indignant expression, the old village chief agreed with him, and his gaze toward Xiong Jingyu also became less gentle.
"We entrust our little children to you in the hope that you will teach them well and help them learn more."
Then we can leave this mountain and not end up like us, toiling in the soil for a living, it's so hard..."
Qi... Chihuahua?
Qi Min successfully gained the old village chief's approval, but his expression faltered slightly.
The way he shouted, with his local accent, did have a certain homophonic quality. Even though the insectoids couldn't quite understand it, Qi Min could!
Xiong Jingyu also heard it, because the old village chief was speaking to him, with a look of advice and reproach on his face.
"The village chief is right, I was wrong, I will definitely correct my mistake and change my attitude... I will learn from Chihuahua!"
Xiong Jingyu looked at Qi Min and said the last sentence, which seemed to be lingering on his lips, successfully making Qi Min's expression turn cold again.
Qi Min lowered his eyes and stared at the uneven ground, listening to Xiong Jingyu's repeated assurances to the old village chief, lost in thought in silence.
After Xiong Jingyu followed the old script again and tricked the old village chief into leaving the house,
Qi Min took the bowl and chopsticks, filled himself a full bowl with chicken soup, then picked up some rice and vegetables before returning to his room.
Liu Yan, who had been watching from the sidelines, hesitated a bit when looking at the food, but still symbolically ladled out a bowl of soup, added some greens, and then followed Qi Min.
Seeing this, the other male and female insects also took some food and went back to their rooms.
After Xiong Jingyu returned from seeing off the old village chief, all that was left in the main room was some soup and a few steamed buns.
The others who hadn't touched their food also hurried back into their houses when they saw Xiong Jingyu return, not daring to come out and face this male insect that had inexplicably died and come back to life.
Looking at the empty main room, Xiong Jingyu thought for a moment, then accurately located the room where Qi Min was and knocked on the door.
"Knock knock, Qi Min, let's talk. Don't you have anything you want to ask me?"
Qi Min listened to the sounds coming from outside, but focused on drinking the rich and sweet home-raised chicken soup and eating the specially selected large chicken legs and gizzards, ignoring Xiong Jingyu's knocking on the door again.
