Rumble …
The soft sound of bowel sounds broke the silence in the courtyard. Sun Yingsheng, who was picking his teeth, heard it clearly. He looked at the two people who were lying on the bamboo chairs like corpses. When he woke up in the morning, they were like this. When he left the courtyard, they were like this. Now that he was back, they were still like this.
After the sound of bowel sounds, Huo Ying opened his eyes and looked at Lu Ping who was beside him. Lu Ping did not respond. He was still focused on resting with his eyes closed.
"Who are you two protesting against here?" Sun Yingsheng said as he walked towards the two.
Huo Ying shook his head. He looked serious. This made Sun Yingsheng, who had a playful look on his face, stop smiling.
"What's wrong?" He asked as he looked at Lu Ping. The problem seemed to be with Lu Ping.
"He seems to be cultivating." Huo Ying said.
Huo Ying was, after all, an experienced cultivator. Even though he couldn't detect any fluctuations of Soul Power in Lu Ping's body, after noticing Lu Ping's attentive state, he made some guesses. After all, he knew about Lu Ping's condition.
"Oh? What kind of move is this? " Sun Yingsheng also examined Lu Ping, but he didn't discover anything. He just walked around Lu Ping twice to observe him.
"Don't disturb him." Huo Ying said. Lu Ping was so focused that he did not react at all even though the two were talking in his ear.
"So you have been watching over him?" Sun Yingsheng said.
Huo Ying did not answer. Sun Yingsheng did not ask. Although they lived in the same courtyard, they were not friends. But Sun Yingsheng knew how cold Huo Ying was. This person who was about to die was full of despair.
But recently, this guy had changed. It was after Lu Ping had been admitted to the fifth courtyard. Now he was guarding Lu Ping with an empty stomach. Huo Ying, the head disciple of Yuheng Peak, might do this. But Huo Ying of the five courtyards would never do this.
"I'll get you something to eat." Sun Yingsheng said and was about to leave.
"And feed the rabbit." Huo Ying said.
"Why aren't you going?" Sun Yingsheng asked.
Huo Ying was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted. What Sun Yingsheng meant was that he didn't have to watch over Lu Ping all the time, because he wasn't the only one who would take care of Lu Ping.
Huo Ying could not help but laugh.
He had changed because of Lu Ping, because of this kid's calmness and courage in the face of despair, because of this kid's tenacious pursuit of survival.
But what about Sun Yingsheng? When did the young master of the Sun family, whose wealth was comparable to that of a country, learn to take care of a little brat of unknown origin?
These fellows, who had their own thoughts, had all changed because of this strange little brat. It was because they had seen something in him. Something that even these pretentious experts didn't have.
Lu Ping continued to focus on cultivating. Sun Yingsheng only gave Huo Ying two steamed buns.
Huo Ying was not particular about food. His appetite had never improved since he came to the Fifth Academy. He had developed a disgust for anything that required him to do in order to survive, and eating was just one of them.
But today, out of the two steamed buns, Huo Ying ate one and a half. Sun Yingsheng's eyes were as big as steamed buns.
"I said, I was going to leave one for you to give to Lu Ping. Or rather, one and a half." Sun Yingsheng said. The Huo Ying from the Fifth Academy he knew ate like medicine. Half a steamed bun was always enough.
"You don't have to feel bad for a few steamed buns, do you?" Huo Ying said.
"My steamed buns are more valuable than the average delicacy." Sun Yingsheng said.
"Is that so?" Huo Ying looked at the remaining half of the steamed bun in his hand. It was indeed extraordinarily white. Soon, this half of the steamed bun was also in Huo Ying's stomach.
"Do you have more?" He asked Sun Yingsheng.
Sun Yingsheng was a little stunned. He subconsciously handed over the two clean and juicy carrots in his hand. He was going to feed them to the rabbits, but Huo Ying didn't mind. He quickly ate them, but he didn't show a satisfied expression. He continued to look at Huo Ying with a questioning gaze.
"I don't believe it!" Sun Yingsheng angrily returned to the house. Soon, there was a bamboo basket in his left hand and a food box in his right.
The bamboo basket was filled with freshly washed fruits and melons, giving off a faint fruity aroma. The food box was filled with delicately cooked food. When the lid was opened, the deliciousness of the delicacies wafted out. The fruity aroma mixed together and smelled wonderful.
"I want to see how much you can eat." Sun Yingsheng crossed his arms and stood to the side. At this moment, Lu Ping suddenly opened his eyes.
"What a coincidence!" Sun Yingsheng was surprised.
"Hmm?" Lu Ping looked around at Huo Ying and Sun Yingsheng, then looked at the fruit basket and food box on the ground in front of him. He was a little confused. He had persisted in cultivating without any distractions until now. He was so tired that he couldn't continue, so he decided to take a break. In the end, the scene he saw when he opened his eyes was very different from when he closed his eyes.
"Eat." Sun Yingsheng only said two words.
"Oh." Lu Ping replied with one word.
It was still very inconvenient for him to move around, but after a night's rest, he could finally eat and drink by himself. He ate very slowly. Huo Ying's appetite wasn't as unfathomable as Sun Yingsheng thought. He picked up a golden fruit from the fruit basket and ate it, then stopped eating.
He rubbed his stomach.
For the former head disciple of Yuheng Peak, this action was a little funny.
But it was really full, not just in his stomach, but also in his heart. He hadn't felt this kind of feeling for a long time.
Sun Yingsheng kept watching Lu Ping eat. After watching for a while, he finally couldn't help but speak.
"Do you know that watching you eat makes me have no appetite?" Sun Yingsheng said.
"Oh?" Lu Ping raised his head and looked at him.
"These things don't taste good?" Sun Yingsheng pointed at the food box in front of Lu Ping.
"They seem not bad." Lu Ping said.
"Seem?" Sun Yingsheng was very dissatisfied with Lu Ping's choice of words. "It seems that you have no taste for good food at all."
"That should be the case." Lu Ping nodded. He had never eaten anything good, so how could he have any taste for food?
"It seems that I shouldn't have let you eat it." Sun Yingsheng muttered to himself.
"No." Lu Ping said very seriously, "If you let me eat it again, I will be very happy and look forward to it."
"Oh?" Sun Yingsheng seemed a little surprised. It sounded like a compliment. Yes, it just seemed like it.
"Then what kind of food are you not looking forward to?" Sun Yingsheng asked.
Lu Ping thought for a while and quickly came up with an answer. It was an answer that he had come into contact with recently.
"The wild fruits of Alkaid Peak." Lu Ping said.
"The wild fruits of Alkaid Peak?" Sun Yingsheng was at a loss. This answer was too vague.
"What kind of wild fruits are edible on Alkaid Peak?" He looked at Huo Ying.
Huo Ying shook his head. He had never paid attention to this kind of thing.
"It's this big, and it's green," Lu Ping described.
"Green? You have such a big range! "Sun Yingsheng exclaimed.
