Chapter 72 How dare they ask for compensation?
Chapter 72 How dare they ask for compensation?
Wenwen suppressed her temper and used the 20-step speed-up technique she had just learned.
She used all her strength to make the most of those 20 steps, and in the eyes of the online treasure, it was only a blink of an eye before her owner was right in front of her.
Wenwen stood still in the field. From a distance, she knew it was destroyed, but upon closer inspection, she realized just how thoroughly it had been destroyed.
The field was a complete mess. The patch of star lotus she had specially planted was ruined. Not a single intact leaf remained; they were all scattered on the ground, some even uprooted and strewn everywhere.
Oh my god, her heart is bleeding, it's really bleeding, enough to fill a whole basin.
What's even more infuriating is that the seedlings of the spotted scale vine, which had only been planted for two days, were also uprooted and thrown next to the shallow pit, leaving only a few bare stems and not a single leaf in sight. The only reason we could still recognize them as spotted scale vine branches was thanks to their conspicuous three colors.
Wenwen squatted down and picked up the bare branches. The branches were covered with dents and were riddled with holes. What kind of hatred or resentment could have destroyed these branches in this state?
Wenwen managed to suppress the swear word that was about to escape her lips.
She touched the holes on the pole; some of them were about to become holes that pierced through the branches. These branches were completely lifeless, and she didn't know if they could come back to life. She had been thinking of letting them grow up quickly so she could weave mats for her family and toys for Xianbao. Now, all of that had become a pipe dream.
Upon further reflection, the Star Lotus Grass had also been damaged. Although the Star Lotus Grass has a well-developed root system, some parts were not uprooted. Given time, it can recover, but it will take time to recover to its full glory. She needed to use it to make medicine right away, so where could she find a whole one? Where could she find one?
With a thousand horses galloping in her heart, Wenwen ultimately couldn't control herself anymore.
She stood up, feet shoulder-width apart, stood still, hands on her hips, and took a deep breath.
He yelled, "Who? Who did this? Step forward, or don't blame me for getting angry. I'm not usually one to lose my temper, but when I do, I'm not human! Huh! If you've got the guts, step forward! Step forward! Come on... ah..."
"Huh, huh."
Wenwen's loud shouts echoed in the space for a long time.
The two, who had been making a racket, suddenly fell silent and stared at Wenwen without saying a word.
Wenwen finally vented her anger, shouting out this long string of words, and she was a little out of breath.
After a few seconds of calm, I glared at him.
"You two come here."
"Xianbao, explain to me what's going on here?"
"Master, you told me to keep an eye on it and not let it run wild."
"Yes, I showed it to you, but how did you look at it? Tell me what all these things are?"
Wenwen pointed to the mess on the ground, feeling extremely distressed.
Xianbao also felt sorry for him. "Master, I listen to you very well. You said not to let him run wild. I was afraid he would cause trouble, so when he first came in, I cut his feathers so that he couldn't fly far or high. Then he hid and I couldn't find him no matter how hard I looked. Suddenly yesterday, no, the day before yesterday, oh, I don't remember, anyway, it was a certain day when I came to talk to Xiaobanban, and here, here, it became like this."
Wenwen was furious.
She's the one who started this whole mess; she's the one who let this trouble in.
Xianbao didn't hear Wenwen's follow-up questions, and her grievances deepened. "Master, my little Banban is dead, what should I do, waaaah..."
Oh dear, it's still little Banban, and it's crying its eyes out.
Wenwen was at a loss for words to comfort Xianbao. Since the existence of the space, she had never seen Xianbao cry. It was truly rare for her to have such deep feelings for this vine.
In a moment of quick thinking, she tried to persuade him, "Don't worry, I'll think of a way."
"Can he be saved?"
Wenwen had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to try to fool people, "I'll give it a try, but I can't guarantee anything."
Unexpectedly, the little bird that had been watching the show opened its beak and let out a series of "chirp chirp chirp" sounds.
Before Wenwen could even cover her ears, she caught a glimpse of Xianbao rushing towards the little bird out of the corner of her eye.
While swatting them away, he cursed, "You stupid bird, you idiot! If you can save them, why didn't you save them a few days ago? You've wasted so many days of your time."
"Chirp chirp, coo, coo coo chirp chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp..."
Wenwen watched as Xianbao and the little bird, who had initially been chasing each other, gradually turned into standing and arguing, one pouting and the other constantly opening their mouths.
That's strange. The one pouting and ignoring everyone is Xianbao. The one chattering non-stop is the little bird.
The little bird circled around the string for a while, chirping "cheep cheep cheep, coo coo coo" incessantly.
Wenwen was incredibly curious.
He yelled at the two birds, "Hey, hey, what are you two doing? What are you up to? Are you conspiring to harm your master?"
The more he talked, the more absurd it became, so Xianbao had to speak up to stop him, "Master, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"If you can understand bird language, why didn't you say so sooner?"
Before Xianbao could answer, the little bird next to her hopped around, chirping and cooing.
"Translate what it says for me."
The little bird bared its teeth and chirped incessantly at Xianbao.
Xianbao hesitated for a moment, but finally, forced by circumstances, he translated one-on-one: "This damn bird said he wants to fly freely."
"Fly! Who's stopping it?"
"No, it has no wings."
As soon as Xianbao finished speaking, the little bird hopped in front of Wenwen, turned around, shook its bottom with its back to her, spread its wings and flapped a few times, then chirped a series of "chirp chirp chirp".
Wenwen took one look and couldn't help but laugh. Hehe, this lousy bird's bottom was completely bare, and the tips of its wings were also bare. You could see the tender red skin under the feathers. The few flaps of its wings were just a tiny breeze, practically no wind at all.
It seems that the line is indeed obedient, and when it does, it stops completely, preventing it from flying high or far.
Wenwen smiled and gave Xianbao an encouraging look.
"continue."
He said he wanted compensation.
"Compensation? No way. It ate so much of my Star Lotus Grass. It owes the debt itself. It hasn't paid it back yet, so where would it get compensation? Dream on."
Wenwen was furious. Pointing to the mess on the ground, she said, "Besides, these things here and there are new debts it has incurred. It hasn't settled its old debts and is now adding new ones. How dare it ask for compensation?"
The little bird's eyes darted around, seemingly fully understanding Wenwen's objection.
It jumped and leaped around Wenwen, trying its best to express its anger, even though it couldn't fly very high or very far.
Tired of its antics, it arrogantly stood in front of Wenwen, tilted its head back, opened its beak wide, and let out a long "Chirp—"
Oh dear, that last long cry even contained a hint of compromise and indignation.
For a moment, Wenwen's ears were filled with "chirp chirp chirp, coo coo coo" sounds. The last long chirp made her feel like she was trapped in a strange circle. Her body slowly rose with these "chirp chirp chirp" sounds, and her head was spinning.
When I was on the verge of a mental breakdown, a stiff, monotone mechanical voice echoed in my mind.
