Chapter 338 Human Traffickers? Just a speed bump.
(What does my brother taste like...?)
With this in mind, Marta's lips unconsciously curled up slightly.
So what does Huiyuan taste like? Sweet? Soft?
Hmm, that needs some thought.
Just then, Huiyuan stood up and said, "Just having food isn't enough... Marta, you wait here, I'll go buy some drinks. Milk tea will do, milk and tea..."
Marta felt downcast as she watched her brother's departing figure.
(As expected, my brother's tastes sweet... I'll be unhappy if he's not around.)
Feeling down, the kitten lay down on the table and started playing with the chopsticks.
Soon after, several appetizers were served, but Huiyuan still hadn't returned.
Seeing this, Marta had no choice but to start eating.
(It looks delicious, but I don't feel like eating... Oh well, I'll wait and see.)
Thinking this, he put down his chopsticks.
At this moment, a kind-looking man walked over, and he spoke in a hoarse but insincere voice.
"Little sister, are you eating alone? You can't finish all this by yourself, can you?"
"who are you?"
"Hehe, don't be shy. How about I eat with you?"
"My master said that you shouldn't agree to things with strangers. Tell me your name first."
Seeing the wary look on Marta's face, the strange man revealed a fierce glint in his eyes.
"Tsk, they won't take the soft approach, they just insist on the hard one..."
After saying that, he reached for his lower back.
Seeing this action, Marta's eyes turned cold, and she said indifferently, "I advise you not to make a move."
"So what if I take action? Your sister is already being held back by my accomplices, what can you expect from her? Hahaha, what a great spot, deep in the alley, even if I scream for help, no one will hear me..."
"Aren't you afraid that Chef Mao will find you when he brings the dishes over?"
"Hiss...you're stalling for time? You're pretty clever, I'm not messing around with you anymore!"
After saying that, the man pulled out a handkerchief smeared with a sleeping potion and attacked.
Upon seeing this, Marta reached behind her back to draw her sword, but then realized she couldn't engage in strenuous activity and stopped.
(Damn it... why did they have to attack when I couldn't fight?)
Left with no other option, they had to back away.
No matter how hard they tried to hide, there wasn't enough space, and they soon reached the edge of the fence.
If you flee further back, you'll find a steep, uneven slope leading directly to the river.
"Just surrender obediently. You don't intend to drown yourself, do you? Come with me and you might be able to enjoy yourself for a while longer, hehehehe~"
Seeing this, Marta gritted her teeth and glared at him.
(Tch, what can I do... It's better than being kidnapped. Concentrate my mind and focus my energy—)
Thinking this, he tried to forcefully draw the sword using his internal energy.
Just then, a cat's meow suddenly rang out, startling the human trafficker.
Looking to the side, the familiar and endearing black cat appeared—it was Mimi.
"Meow...! (Just because Huiyuan isn't here doesn't mean you can lay a hand on my little brother! My cotton can only be bullied by me!)"
Upon hearing the meow, Marta relaxed.
The human trafficker also showed the same expression.
"A cat... Hmph, I thought it was someone else, you're such a nuisance... Little sister, surrender now, and I might treat you kindly—"
Seeing that the human traffickers didn't take her seriously, Mimi emitted elemental energy from her entire body, and her body gradually grew larger.
It turns out the system secretly updated, turning the skill [Rock Cat General] into Mimi's active transformation skill.
Upon seeing this, Marta raised her hands, feigning surrender.
The next second, the trafficker felt a jolt in his back and was thrown out as if he had been hit by a truck.
"Meow meow meow! (We're all trying our best to live, go tell my insurance company!)"
Mimi licked her little paws, and they returned to their original size.
Marta smiled, picked him up, and returned him to his seat.
As for the human trafficker... Mimi knocked him into the river. If he's lucky, he might survive downstream, or at least live for a few months lying in bed.
If you're unlucky, cough cough... even if you die and become a water ghost, you won't have a good life.
Just then, Huiyuan returned with homemade milk tea.
"Whew~ The first milk tea of summer is a girl's romance! Hey, Mimi, what are you doing here in Marta?"
"Meow (Why don't you check the cooldown of the [Rock Cat General] skill)?"
"Skill cooldown...wait, what's going on? Why are my skills on cooldown? What happened?"
Seeing Marta turn her head away, pouting and venting her anger on her, Huiyuan became even more confused.
No, what's wrong?
I only chatted with the milk and tea seller for a while, why are you angry now?!
My sister's thoughts are so hard to guess, being a brother is so difficult... Maybe I should just be a good older sister.
(Could it be that she got angry just because I didn't give her the flowers? She's not usually like this... What's wrong with her? Oh well, let's sit down first.)
"Haha... Marta, let's eat first, and I'll take you to find the Sweet Flower right after we finish eating."
Upon hearing this, Marta opened her eyes, glanced at Huiyuan, and secretly ate her meal with a smile.
After finishing their meal, the two went out of town and strolled along the mountain paths between the villages.
Huiyuan didn't know why her sister was angry, so she picked a sweet flower and put it on Marta's head.
"Don't be angry anymore. Look, now we're a couple."
"So ugly... Pfft, fine, I'll forgive you for not showing up to protect me at the crucial moment this time."
"Huh? So, what happened..."
"Hmph~ Silly brother doesn't need to know."
At this moment, a light rain began to fall, and the light was gradually obscured by dark clouds.
Seeing this, Huiyuan didn't say much, but pointed in a direction and said, "There's a temple over there, let's go there to take shelter from the rain."
Huiyuan stepped into this familiar yet unfamiliar temple and began to look around.
A stone statue named "Bronze Sparrow" is placed in the central, prestigious position.
In front of it was a pile of offerings, including golden shrimp balls, grilled tigerfish and other dishes that Tongque liked to eat, which showed that the people who built the temple put a lot of effort into it.
(Is this the Bronze Sparrow Temple now? Compared to its dilapidated state before, it's completely transformed. By the way, try calling his name and see if he's awake.)
"Bronze Sparrow, are you there?"
The next second, that nostalgic voice came out.
"...Who...oh...it's you, Rao Lu'an, the True Lord. And this younger sister..."
Upon seeing the speaking stone statue, Marta was surprised and cupped her hands, saying, "I am Marta-Hun, a disciple of True Lord Liuyun and the younger sister of Brother Hunyuan."
