"Meow ~"
Ugly Duckling, who was originally a little scared, immediately meowed at Ah Zi. It even shook its head and bared its teeth, looking very smug.
"Phew," Ah Zi exhaled a little angrily, but when it saw Amy, it shrunk its head and didn't dare to be rash.
"However, when it grows up, I can consider giving you some," Amy said after some thought. "But, it can't be too much."
"Meow?" Ugly Duckling's eyes widened as if it realized that things weren't that simple.
"Howl!" Ah Zi seemed to have understood Amy's words. It raised its head and meowed happily as it stared at Ugly Duckling expectantly.
"Alright, let's go to Issen Castle first. Although it doesn't look far, we still have to find the best blacksmith there." Meg waved to Ah Zi, and then held Amy's little hand as they walked along the valley in the direction of Issen Castle.
Ah Zi flapped its wings and flew away from the valley that people often passed by.
Issen Castle didn't look far in the sky, but in order to prevent being discovered, Ah Zi still stopped several kilometers away. It would still take a lot of time to walk all the way there.
Amy was tired after walking for a short while. Meg carried her, threw Ugly Duckling into the travel bag behind him, and walked towards the steel castle between the mountains in the distance.
Just as Meg was considering whether to rent a bicycle from the system, there was the sound of hooves and wheels behind him. Meg walked to the side of the road and prepared to give way, but the carriage stopped beside him.
"Hey, are you going to Issen Castle? Seeing that you have a child with you, do you need us to give you a ride? " In the first carriage, a middle-aged man dressed like a merchant looked at Meg and asked. His gaze lingered on Amy, who had already fallen asleep in Meg's arms, for a while.
In such cold weather, what was this guy thinking? He actually brought his child out for a walk. If they walked to Issen Castle, the child would probably be frozen to death.
Meg looked at the caravan to find that there were a dozen or so horse-drawn carriages, all of which were filled to the brim with goods. The coachmen were all humans, and it appeared that they were merchants from Rodu. The chubby middle-aged man who was greeting them was most likely the owner of this caravan. He had dark skin, and appeared to be quite friendly. Thus, Tang Wulin smiled, and said, "If it's possible, I'll have to trouble you."
"Alright, come on up. There's charcoal burning in the carriage, so it's warm. Don't let the children catch a cold." Godala laughed heartily as he lifted the heavy curtains and gestured for Meg and the others to enter the carriage.
Meg carried Amy into the carriage, and the warm air blew against their faces, completely isolating them from the cold.
The interior of the carriage was very spacious, and there was even a simple bed that could be unfolded near the back. It should be where this merchant usually slept. There was a metal basin in the middle of the carriage with charcoal burning inside. There was a small metal rack above the brazier, and a chicken was being roasted on it. The carriage was already filled with the aroma of roasted chicken.
"Roasted chicken?" As soon as Meg sat down, Amy woke up from the smell. She poked her head out of Meg's arms, and stared at the roasted chicken on the rack.
"This is not our roasted chicken," Meg said with a helpless smile. The little fellow really didn't forget to roast chicken even when she was sleeping.
"It's not ours?" Ai Mi looked left and right. Why did he come to this place when he only slept for a while? She looked at Meg strangely, and asked, "Father, have we arrived?"
"Not yet. This kind uncle said he was willing to give us a ride, so we got on his carriage." Meg shook his head.
"Oh." Amy nodded thoughtfully. Then she looked up at Godala and smiled sweetly. "Uncle, is this roasted chicken yours? Can I have a small bite? "
"The little girl is so cute." Godala looked at Amy, and his eyes lit up. He smiled as he picked up the roasted chicken, and handed it to Amy. "Eat. You can have even two bites."
"Amy, don't simply eat other people's food. Uncle probably hasn't eaten yet." Meg shook his head as he looked at Amy, who was about to reach out to take the roasted chicken.
"It's okay, it's okay. How much can a child eat in one or two bites? Let her eat first. I'll eat the rest." Godala smiled and waved his hand. The little girl looked crystal clear, and was really likable. It was okay to let her have one or two bites first.
"Father, look. Even Uncle said it's okay." Amy retracted her hand and looked at the roasted chicken, then at Meg.
"This …" Meg pondered for a while. Seeing that Godala really didn't mind, he nodded, and reminded her again, "You can only have one bite."
"Okay." Amy nodded happily. Then she reached out to pluck a big drumstick from the roasted chicken. She opened her mouth wide and stuffed the whole drumstick into her mouth. She chewed and spat out the whole drumstick bone, then swallowed it. She nodded in satisfaction. "Although it's not as good as Father's roasted chicken, it's still very delicious."
"This …" Godala stared blankly at Ai Mi, who ate the drumstick in one bite. He only regained his senses after a while. How could such a young girl eat a drumstick in one bite? Even he couldn't do that!
Besides … he really hadn't had his lunch yet. This roasted chicken that he had roasted for more than an hour was the lunch he had specially prepared for himself. He would be lying if he said he didn't feel the pinch at all after eating a fat drumstick in one bite just like that.
"Uncle, can I have another bite?" Amy looked at Godala with a harmless smile.
Looking at this kitten-like cute smile, who would believe that she had just eaten a whole drumstick in one bite!
Although he was the one who said that just now, according to the way she was eating, if she took another bite, he would only be able to chew on the bones.
Godala took the roasted chicken from Amy's hands, and nodded seriously. "This … I think your father is right. Children shouldn't eat too much when they're on the bus. Otherwise, they'll feel uncomfortable on the bus."
Meg touched his nose and held back his laughter.
"Sigh, it's just a small bite." Amy looked away from the roasted chicken reluctantly. She took out Ugly Duckling from the bag, hugged it, and leaned against Meg. She immediately closed her eyes and went back to sleep.
Godala was stunned as he looked at Amy, who fell asleep instantly. He raised his head and gave Meg a thumbs up. "Your daughter is really a genius."
"You flatter me." Meg turned his body slightly to let Amy lean on him more comfortably.
"Oh, yes. I'm Godala, a merchant from Rodu. Where are you from? What are you going to Issen Castle for? "Godala asked Meg curiously.
This father-daughter pair's attire and salutation didn't look like merchants or wanderers. Instead, they looked like rich people who were out for a stroll. They even brought along a strange-colored kitten.
