Chapter 127: Eyebrows On Fire
As they were coming down the mountain, Sea-Eastern Green Snowflake and Hu Xiaoyue, who had been frolicking in the forest, returned.
One was carrying a rabbit and the other a wild pheasant.
They were here to bring prey to Qin Wanwan.
Qin Wanwan petted the heads of the two animals with her little chubby hands.
“Well done, you are all Wanwan’s capable helpers!”
Little Qilin gave equal praise to every animal.
“Let’s go, down the mountain!”
My stomach is hungry, let’s fill our stomachs first before going down the mountain.
Upon reaching the foot of the mountain, she gave Hunter Zhuang and his son each a golden peanut and promised to have someone deliver the bow and arrow Zhuang Sheng wanted to him before bidding farewell and returning to the manor.
Qin Wanwan’s daddy is super rich, but she is not a foolish girl who spends money recklessly.
She also has a daddy who is super poor!
Holding two solid golden peanuts, the Zhuang father and son were extremely excited.
This small golden peanut alone could be exchanged for at least ten taels of silver.
This trip, they only led the way and didn’t encounter any danger, yet they received twenty taels of silver for free, a basket of persimmons, and the promised bow and arrow.
It was totally worth it!
Qin Wanwan and her group returned to the manor, her stomach already hungry.
She had the cook prepare the prey that Snowflake and the others gave her to eat, and she herself ate pastries while strolling around.
This time, Eagle Boss insisted on coming along.
He was very wronged; Qin Wanwan had to coax him for a long time after she returned before he was appeased.
Let him follow, then.
Qin Wanwan strolled along, browsing the mall.
Her merit points were soaring; she had broken through ten thousand after accompanying Father Shang to suppress bandits, and now she had over thirteen thousand.
As for the items traded, two more types of fruit were unlocked: super large watermelon and big cherries, as well as several types of vegetables.
Tomatoes, lettuce, and short, plump Chinese cabbages.
In addition to these, there was a book.
《 Livestock Farming Compendium》
This book was very expensive, costing one thousand more merit points than 《 Winemaking Compendium》.
But she still bought it. Keke said it taught how to raise pigs, horses, cattle, and sheep, and covered common livestock diseases and their treatments.
This was a skill book, and it made sense for it to be sold at a high price.
The only item that was neither food nor a book was a set of wilderness survival tools.
And they were disposable.
The wilderness survival kit included a multi-functional small shovel that could be used as a small hoe, spade, shovel, and even a saw and dagger.
There was also a telescopic tent that could accommodate two adults and a small sleeping bag.
The most novel items were a telescope, a magnifying glass, a solar-powered lighter, and a flashlight.
These gadgets were very novel in ancient times, but unfortunately, only one set could be purchased.
It cost Little Qilin five hundred merit points.
She also wanted to buy a set for her daddy.
Qin Wanwan curiously started playing with the telescope and magnifying glass.
The telescope could see very far, and it was a pair of binoculars.
It was pink, perfectly matching Qin Wanwan’s cute, little girl style.
The magnifying glass was also light pink and had two cute cat ears.
She picked up the magnifying glass and aimed it at the ants on the ground.
The tiny ants instantly became much larger, and even the leg hair on their tiny legs could be clearly seen.
“Wow!”
Little Qilin had not seen such novel little gadgets in the Heavenly Court.
Mainly, there were too few people who had ascended from the modern era in the Heavenly Court.
Although it was late autumn and the weather had turned much colder, there was still sun in the sky, it was just not as hot as the summer sun.
Qin Wanwan discovered that the magnifying glass converged sunlight into a single point when aimed at a spot, and she curiously began to study it.
Then she found that the leaf was smoking!
Qin Wanwan: (?ω?)
Huh? That’s strange, let me look again.
Then the leaf caught fire!
Qin Wanwan was extremely surprised: “Keke, this magnifying glass can also start fires!”
Afraid that the leaf would burn out, Qin Wanwan gathered all the surrounding leaves.
Seeing her actions, the little animals followed suit.
Then Eagle Boss turned around, and its tail feathers swept across the small fire, setting them ablaze!
Qin Wanwan: !!!∑(°Д°ノ)ノ
“Quick, quick, put out the fire!”
Eagle Boss looked up and felt like the sky was falling.
It could barely fly to begin with, and if its feathers were burned off, it wouldn’t be able to fly at all.
“Eagle Boss, don’t run away.”
“Water, water, quickly get some water!”
Fortunately, there were servants at the manor, and hearing the commotion, they quickly brought water to extinguish the fire.
After a chaotic scene, Eagle Boss became a drowned rat, and Qin Wanwan’s originally fair little face was smudged black.
The other animals were not much better off, especially the little fox and Snowflake, who were already very white, their bodies were also covered in black ash.
The butler of the manor saw the situation and felt his eyes go black.
How would he explain this to the master?
Fortunately, Qin Wanwan was not injured apart from the black smudges, only… her eyebrows were singed a little.
Arrangements were quickly made for people to take her to bathe and wash her hair.
As she was leaving, Little Qilin comforted Eagle Boss: “It’s okay, only a little bit of your tail was burned, your wings are still fine, they’ll grow back soon.”
The drowned rat Eagle Boss drooped its head and wings, looking completely dejected.
Little Qilin emerged after washing, still a beautiful and clean little creature.
Only her left eyebrow was a little lighter.
Although it didn’t affect her appearance.
Qin Wanwan herself didn’t realize she had changed outfits several times that day. If she weren’t from a wealthy family, who could afford such a fuss?
After a fragrant meal, Little Qilin took her animal army, three with wings and a fox, back to the city.
Little Red couldn’t go back with them and was unhappy!
They came empty-handed, but had to be escorted by many people on their way back.
Persimmons, chestnuts, wild pears, and various mushrooms were arranged to be delivered to the residence by carriage.
Qin Wanwan, with her short legs, hopped off the carriage and craned her little neck to peek at the next door.

Then she met the gaze of the guard at the gate next door.
Little Qilin flashed a smile: “Young brother, young brother, has your adult returned yet?”
The guard replied: “No, our adult has not returned.”
Qin Wanwan said “oh” in disappointment: “Then when she returns, can you tell me? I found a lot of fruit and can share it with him.”
The soft, milky voice of the little girl was gentle, her large eyes beautiful and sincere.
This made it difficult to refuse.
However…
The guard at the gate’s expression was conflicted: “We will be punished if we casually reveal our adult’s whereabouts.”
Little Qilin wanted to know when her daddy would return, but she wouldn’t harm anyone.
“Then never mind, I’ll have someone watch.”
Anyway, it was next door, and if daddy returned, someone would just notify her.
She was indeed a clever one.
With that thought, Qin Wanwan the child said bye-bye to the guard and hopped home by herself.
She didn’t know when Father Shang and Big Goldy would return.
Big Goldy is so pitiful, Wanwan can’t take it out to play because many people are afraid of it.
I’m tired, let’s take a nap first.
Upon returning home, Qin Wanwan’s excitement quickly turned to drowsiness. Yawning, she hugged Keke and went back to her room, buried her head in the pillow, and fell fast asleep.
