Don't mess with the little apprentice sister! She is greedy and immoral

Xiao Yan was delighted when he saw this, but then he smiled awkwardly and was a little afraid to touch the plate of pepper and sesame chicken.

Seeing this, Qin Zhen sighed softly, then picked up a piece of spicy chicken and stuffed it into Xiao Yan's mouth.

Xiao Yan was startled, and was afraid that the chicken would fall out of his mouth, so he chewed it quickly.

As he chewed, his eyes lit up instantly, and even his eyebrows rose higher.

"Is it delicious?" Qin Zhen asked him with a smile.

Xiao Yan wanted to speak, but was reluctant to swallow the chicken whole, so he could only nod, and nodded again.

"If you eat my food, you have to listen to me." Qin Zhen smiled slyly.

"Ah?" Xiao Yan was so scared that the chicken in his mouth dropped, and then Qin Zhen quickly stuffed another piece into his mouth.

Now Xiao Yan was in a dilemma whether to eat or not.

Jingxing watched from the side and shook his head helplessly.

Qin Zhen didn't care about Xiao Yan's hesitation. She just lifted Xiao Yan's chin and helped Xiao Yan eat it manually.

Now, Xiao Yan was even more confused.

Qin Zhen found Xiao Yan funny, so she poked Xiao Yan's frowning brows with her hand and wiped the blood off his forehead: "Little kid, don't be so resentful."

Xiao Yan's face was puffed up, and he muttered quietly: "It's because you, an adult, always like to bully children."

"So you think I'm bullying you? Oh, that's so sad. I wanted to take you to see the sea."

"Look at the sea!" Xiao Yan's expression instantly became excited.

"I'm sad. I don't want to go." Qin Zhen hugged her knees and curled herself up like a wronged mushroom. She also stuffed the spicy chicken into Jingxing's hand.

Xiao Yan became anxious when he saw this, and quickly looked at Jing Xing on the side: "What, what should I do?"

Jingxing stuffed himself with a piece of spicy chicken, then looked at Qin Zhen with complicated eyes as if he was shocked by the taste, and then he returned to his casual and unfocused look.

"Yeah, what should we do? You have to try your best to comfort her."

Xiao Yan has never coaxed anyone before. After all, the adults never bother with him about these things. Only Qin Zhen will make trouble with him.

This feeling was very strange, but Xiao Yan didn't find it disgusting. He just felt a little helpless and embarrassed.

Xiao Yan racked his brains but couldn't think of how to coax her. In the end, he could only squat in front of Qin Zhen and clumsily reached out to pat Qin Zhen's head.

Qin Zhen didn't expect Xiao Yan would actually come to coax her, and she couldn't help but look up at him.

Then Xiao Yan tightened his face and coaxed her seriously: "I, I actually don't think you are bullying me. I like you to get along with me like this. I was wrong. Don't be angry, okay?"

It was the first time that Qin Zhen was coaxed by a child, and for a moment she completely forgot how to react.

Who would have thought that Xiao Yan thought Qin Zhen was still angry, and quickly added: "Didn't you want to know about the sacrificial ceremony before? I'll tell you everything!"

Qin Zhen was stunned when she heard this, as if she didn't expect him to suddenly bring this up.

In fact, she was not angry at all, she was just teasing Xiaoyan, just to make Xiaoyan willing to go with them.

When Qin Zhen heard Xiao Yan talking about the sacrificial ceremony, the bitterness in her heart surged up again.

"I'm not angry anymore." Qin Zhen smiled at Xiao Yan in a friendly manner, "If you don't want to talk about those things, let's not talk about them."

"It's not that I didn't want to say it, but I just couldn't say it before. But after those older brothers and sisters suddenly left, I was able to say it."

Xiaoyan is really honest and frank.

"Is that so? Then - Xiaoyan, are you willing to go with me to see the sea?" Qin Zhen felt a little reluctant to trick Xiaoyan, so she simply asked Xiaoyan for his opinion directly.

Xiao Yan opened his mouth to answer, but the moment he opened his mouth, he covered his mouth with his hands and said "Ah".

"what happened?"

"I, I'd better not go." Xiao Yan shook his head hesitantly.

"Do you dislike the ocean, or do you dislike being with us? I'll try to figure it out."

When Xiao Yan heard Qin Zhen say this, he hurriedly waved his hands in panic: "No, no, no, that's not what I meant."

And how can this problem be solved?!

Xiao Yan found that he really couldn't keep up with Qin Zhen's amazing train of thought.

"Then what do you mean?"

Xiao Yan didn't know what to say. After thinking for a while, he organized his words: "We can't leave the village, because bad things will happen to everyone who leaves the village."

Qin Zhen and Jing Xing couldn't help but look at each other when they heard this.

Jingxing naturally took over the topic and asked, "Did someone tell you this? Or did you see something?"

Qin Zhen also added: "What exactly do you mean by bad things?"

"Yes, it was the village chief who said that this was a rule set by our ancestors. Our ancestors didn't say why, but anyway, you can't leave the village. Some people didn't want to follow this rule before, and they disappeared as soon as they left the village."

"Disappeared? Nothing left?"

Xiao Yan nodded heavily: "Yes, the whole person suddenly disappeared, leaving nothing behind."

"Did this happen before or after Lord Lian came?" Qin Zhen tried to confirm the timeline.

"Before, I didn't see it with my own eyes. It was the elders in the village who said it. But since everyone says so, it must be true. So even if I really want to leave with Master Lian, I can't. Besides, the village chief has always taught us not to betray the land that raised us. Anyway, we can't leave."

Xiaoyan doesn’t particularly understand many things, but he is very obedient. Even if he doesn’t understand, he will strictly follow them.

"Well, what if I told you that you could see the sea without leaving the village?"

"Really!?"

"of course."

"But, but, shouldn't the sea be very far away from our village? I asked Master Lian, and Master Lian said that the sea is far, far east, where there is a salty sea breeze and mermaids who can sing moving songs. It is a place much, much bigger than our village."

Xiao Yan didn't seem to know how to describe what he imagined the sea to look like, so he could only speak while gesticulating with his hands and feet.

"That's how it was originally, but Lady Lian has great powers. She asked someone to move the sea outside the village. You can see the sea as long as you stand at the edge of the village."

Although 90% of what Qin Zhen said was true, it still sounded a bit outrageous.

Only Xiao Yan did not think this was outrageous at all, and even believed it without a doubt: "Master Lian is really amazing!"
