After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 149

Chapter 149: Dare to Offend Grandpa Zhouzhou? Seeking Death!
“In the second round, you will be tested on drawing talismans. This time, you need to draw a Fire-Protection Talisman. As long as your talisman withstands the fire for five minutes, you will pass the round,” he said.

As he spoke, he brought out a stove with ordinary flames burning inside, nothing particularly remarkable.

Seeing this, Wen Jing raised an eyebrow slightly. Was this round really that easy? If it was so easy, why did she feel like it was intentional?

The person in charge also felt that this round was excessively simple, but since it was a question personally set by Cen Zhiyuan, the purpose behind it was self-evident.

Glancing in Zhouzhou’s direction, the person in charge’s gaze dimmed slightly. “Let’s begin.”

Zhouzhou maintained a calm expression, blinking her eyes. Her small face was filled with happiness, as if she was delighted by how easy this question was, seemingly unaware of the underlying meaning behind it.

But when she picked up the cinnabar brush, she sighed inwardly. There were always people who liked to be clever. Some people were just naturally foolish and remained Big Fools no matter how much they suffered.

Sigh.

Zhouzhou shook her head. The Eldest Senior Brother said that when trouble comes knocking, you should just let them have their way. After all, the people from Sanqing Temple were all simple and honest.

After finishing drawing the talisman, Zhouzhou tossed it into the fire. Cen Zhiyuan knew about her talisman-drawing ability, so he didn’t expect to stop her in this round. On the contrary, what he wanted was for her to advance to the third round.

Zhouzhou was quite curious about what surprises the Big Fool had prepared for her. She clenched her fist, feeling somewhat excited.

When Wen Jing’s talisman turned to ashes exactly five minutes later, the timing was just right. She still barely made it through, just barely meeting the passing score.

The person in charge glanced at her but didn’t say anything. He led them to a room and said, “This is the final question. You must subdue the spirit inside to pass.”

As he spoke, he looked at Wen Jing and said, “You come with me. Your question is different.”

“No need,” Wen Jing replied, chewing on her lollipop. She threw away the stick and raised her chin, saying, “I’ll take this one too.”

“Are you sure?” The person in charge narrowed his eyes and asked. The more he acted like this, the more suspicious Wen Jing became. She had promised the boss that she would protect the little girl properly. Moreover, she quite liked this little girl, and she wouldn’t agree if anything happened to her.

“I’m sure. Stop wasting time and let’s get started,” Wen Jing replied firmly.

Hearing this, the person in charge didn’t insist anymore. It was her own choice, after all.

“Go in,” he said.

Zhouzhou and Wen Jing exchanged a glance, excitement gleaming in their eyes. Without saying a word, they walked straight into the room.

Inside the room, it was pitch black with a foul stench. Zhouzhou wrinkled her nose and said while holding her nose, “Why do these filthy things always make themselves stink?”

Seeing that she wasn’t afraid at all and even had the enthusiasm to complain, Wen Jing smirked, crossed her arms, and said, “That’s why they’re filthy things.”

“You’re right,” Zhouzhou nodded seriously.

Just as her words fell, a cold voice came through, “Who are you calling dirty?”

Here it comes.

Zhouzhou and Wen Jing exchanged a glance and discreetly took out their peach wood swords. Zhouzhou spoke in an innocent tone, “It’s you! Dirty and smelly, even worse than poop. Can’t you smell yourself?”

Wen Jing cooperatively added, “Maybe it’s true. There’s a saying that goes, ‘Familiarity breeds contempt.’ The more something stinks, the more you get used to it.”

Zhouzhou suddenly realized, “So you’re a big stinky!”

She was the one who stank!

Enraged by her words, the evil spirit suddenly pounced forward, opening its blood-filled mouth, intending to devour the smelly child.

Wen Jing’s ears twitched, ready to take action. But to her surprise, Zhouzhou leaped up, and the peach wood sword in her hand stabbed fiercely in one direction. Her movement was fierce and fast, freezing in place after the attack, not moving at all. She stood with her arms crossed, looking in Zhouzhou’s direction.

Didn’t expect the little girl to be quite formidable.

Zhouzhou showed no fear at all. She swiftly darted behind the evil spirit, and before it could react, her chubby little hand firmly grabbed one of its legs and forcefully swung it, throwing it against the wall.

Even the evil spirit, despite its nature, was left disoriented and dizzy from Zhouzhou’s powerful swing. Undeterred, Zhouzhou didn’t let go and pulled the spirit out from the wall, smashing it forcefully onto the ground. As she smashed it, she also threw Purification Talismans, gradually dispersing the malevolent energy from the spirit. The large figure of the spirit visibly shrank at a remarkable speed.

“Take that for being so stinky, for bothering me, and for bullying children!” Zhouzhou exclaimed with dissatisfaction.

The evil spirit, with its legs stretched out from the impact, and its body becoming increasingly transparent, pleaded with a pained expression, “Please, spare me, Autie Zhouzhou!”

“Smack!” Zhouzhou swung again, pouted, and unhappily retorted, “Who is your Auntie? Call me Grandpa Zhouzhou!”

She wanted to be addressed as Grandpa!

The small girl, with her slender arms and legs that seemed delicate and fragile, revealed unexpected strength. The evil spirit was already subdued before it could even put up a fight, crying out, “Grandpa Zhouzhou, have mercy!”

As it spoke, a handsome face appeared in front of them—fair and handsome, with glistening eyes that evoked compassion. Anyone who saw him would feel pity.

Unfortunately, Zhouzhou was only four years old.

She was fixated on Qin Lie, her eyes already elevated, impossible to captivate.

Zhouzhou furrowed her brows tighter and swung once more, exclaiming, “You’re too ugly.”

This was the most handsome soul it had encountered so far.

The evil spirit, once again struck, hastily changed into the appearance of an innocent child.

To its surprise, Zhouzhou frowned even deeper and widened her eyes, “Real children aren’t as disgusting as you!”

As she prepared to strike again, the evil spirit, genuinely afraid, pleaded, “Grandpa Zhouzhou, tell me what appearance you desire, and I will change into it.”

She liked…

Zhouzhou tilted her head and pondered for a moment, “I like someone rich and prosperous!”

Rich and prosperous, huh?

The evil spirit rummaged through its collection of souls hidden within its belly and finally found one. With a wave of its hand, a plump figure appeared before them.

The figure was dressed in shiny golden clothes, with a beer belly protruding, a large gold chain hanging from its neck, sunglasses on its face, and a cigarette held between its fingers—a portrayal of a nouveau riche.

Bending over with a servile manner, it asked, “Grandpa Zhouzhou, is this acceptable?”

Zhouzhou looked at its attire, her eyes shining brightly, but she still said, “It’ll do for now.”

The person in charge, unable to hear their conversation, only heard the thumping sound from inside and spoke, “Little girl, if you give up the exam, I’ll let you come out.”

Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou’s hand paused.

The evil spirit quickly took the opportunity to whisper a complaint, “Grandpa Zhouzhou, let me tell you, that rotten old man outside is not a good person. He was discussing with someone else about devouring your soul and turning you into a fool.”

Hearing this, Zhouzhou’s eyes widened. Indeed, fools themselves can’t stand the existence of a clever person.

How wicked.

She puffed out her cheeks, and her gaze swept past the nearby evil spirit. Suddenly, an idea came to her, and she beckoned it with her finger, “Come here, help me with something.”

The evil spirit looked at her smiling face and couldn’t help but swallow nervously. But in the end, it dared not provoke her and obediently brought its ear closer.

As it listened to her words, its eyes began to shine brighter.

How exciting!
