Chapter 60
Chapter 60
"If it was a condition caused by a later development, maybe Sister could help you regain your voice," Lin Zaozao said, gently patting the heads of Lin Wuwu and Lin Wanwan as if they were little puppies. In Lin Zaozao's eyes, there was nothing but tender concern.
Although both of them were already fifteen years old, they were still as small as children. Starting today, she would have to make sure these two kids receive proper nutrition. Otherwise, what if their lack of nutrients hinders their growth? How would they find wives in the future?
No, wait! It should be finding husbands!
As Lin Zaozao looked at her two precious little cabbages, she couldn't bear the thought of them growing up only to be taken away by some ugly woman from outside.
The idea made Lin Zaozao feel heartbroken.
But then she reconsidered her approach and felt that it was somewhat unfair. After all, women were scarce in this world. If she encouraged her brothers to pursue some lifelong romantic relationship, it would be pure nonsense.
Forget it, she should focus on her own happiness! She shouldn't worry about other people's affairs.
With this realization, Lin Zaozao's sorrow immediately vanished. She held the hands of Lin Wuwu and Lin Wanwan and, while relieving them of their pain, turned to look at Ye Yi, who was busy cleaning bones.
"Little Ye Yi, can you lend me something from your room for an emergency?" Lin Zaozao took a swift step towards Ye Yi, unabashedly wrapping her arms around his waist, her hands restlessly exploring his body. She looked at him with sparkling eyes and asked.
Although she didn't know what Lin Zaozao wanted to borrow, she knew that apart from bones, there was nothing else in his room. So Ye Yi generously nodded and let her take whatever she needed.
"Little Ye Yi, you're so generous! Since you agreed, I'll just pick something myself! I'll only borrow it for a while and return it as soon as I'm done."
After speaking, Lin Zaozao took advantage of Ye Yi's distraction and pulled down his collar, taking a bite on his cheek without hesitation.
Releasing Ye Yi, Lin Zaozao reclaimed the pain she had transferred to him. As she looked up at Ye Yi's blushing face, she smiled with satisfaction.
Oh my goodness! It was just a bite! Why did Ye Yi's face turn so red? Should she let him have a bite in return?
Feeling that it was somewhat impossible, Lin Zaozao turned her head and scanned the bones hanging on the wall. One of them, resembling a bull's head, caught her attention. She took it off the wall and examined it carefully. There was a perfect indentation in the middle, so Lin Zaozao held the bull's head against her head like a hat.
As Lin Zaozao skillfully performed her actions, Ye Yi, Lin Wuwu, and Lin Wanwan exchanged puzzled glances. They chose to remain silent and continued to observe Lin Zaozao's unconventional maneuvers.
After putting the bull's head on her head, Lin Zaozao scanned Ye Yi's room once again. Finally, her gaze settled on a long white tail.
"Ye Yi, can I borrow this tail for a while?" she asked.
Ye Yi nodded earnestly to indicate his agreement.
Taking the tail down from the wall, Lin Zaozao waved it in her hand and found it comfortable to hold. Satisfied, she nodded.
Ah! Now everything was complete. With her current unique appearance, she definitely looked like a performer in a ritual dance.
However, performers in ritual dances always wore specific clothing, whereas she was dressed in black attire, which didn't match the bull's head on her head.
Just as Lin Zaozao was feeling troubled, she saw Ye Yi standing beside the bed, and her expression immediately brightened.
"Ye Yi, isn't your job that of a ritual dancer? Where are the specialized clothes you wear for the dance? Can I borrow them for a while?"
Lin Zaozao's words made Ye Yi freeze. He wasn't a ritual dancer at all, so where could he find the appropriate clothing for Lin Zaozao?
As Ye Yi struggled with the situation, he looked at his wardrobe. After a moment of contemplation, he smiled at Lin Zaozao and walked towards his wardrobe.
Opening the wardrobe, Ye Yi carefully took out a wooden box. Lin Zaozao noticed how precious the box was to him from his cautious demeanor.
Ye Yi took a deep breath and held the box in front of Lin Zaozao. He smiled at her and opened the box.
At the moment the box opened, Lin Zaozao felt like her eyes were being dazzled by its contents.
Oh my goodness! Is this really the clothing for the ritual dance? Why is it so splendid?
Could it be that being a ritual dancer is an especially lucrative profession? Otherwise, how could Ye Yi afford such a magnificent outfit?
Facing Lin Zaozao's astonishment, Ye Yi simply smiled and took out a pale purple cape from the box. He gently draped it over Lin Zaozao's shoulders.
Lin Zaozao examined the cape on her body and touched it with her hand, feeling its exquisite texture. She then looked at the various gemstones and pearls embellishing the cape and felt that its value could rival the cassock worn by Tang Sanzang.
"Ye Yi, this cape must be very expensive! I'll be extremely careful when using it so as not to damage your belongings. As soon as I'm done, I'll return it to you immediately."
Lin Zaozao touched the cape and realized how expensive it truly was. If she were to accidentally damage it, she felt she wouldn't be able to afford the cost.
"Ye Yi, maybe I shouldn't borrow your cape. It's too valuable, and I'm afraid I won't be able to compensate you if anything happens."
Just as Lin Zaozao was about to take off the cape, Ye Yi stopped her.
He handed the box containing the cloak to Lin Zaozao and looked into her eyes, nodding earnestly.
"Ye Yi, what do you mean? I don't understand."
"Little fatty, Ye Yi is saying that he's giving you this cloak as a gift."
Murmurs of Murong Hai's voice came from the doorway.
Turning her head to glance at Murong Hai, Lin Zaozao looked at Ye Yi in disbelief.
"Ye Yi, this is something you use every day for meals. I can't take it away. And besides, this thing is really expensive."
As she spoke, Lin Zaozao was about to return the box to Ye Yi, but he refused.
It wasn't until Ye Yi pushed Lin Zaozao out of the door that she confirmed he had truly given her his cloak.
Oh my goodness! She had received something so valuable from Ye Yi for free. How could she repay him?
Should she offer herself in return?
But when Lin Zaozao turned around and saw Ye Yi's smiling face full of tenderness, she quickly dismissed her little scheming thoughts.
Heavens, she couldn't let Ye Yi suffer a loss in the end.
While Lin Zaozao stood there dumbfounded, holding the box and the white tail in her hand, her thoughts were interrupted by Zhao Yingmei's surprised voice.
"Lin Xiaohua, what's with your outfit? Why do you look like a bear wearing human skin?"
"Oh my god! Zhao Yingmei, can't you speak properly? What do you mean by a bear wearing human skin?
This divine attire I'm wearing is called the Grand God Costume, exuding unparalleled dominance, and it's the only one in the world. If it weren't to drive away the evil spirit on you, would I need to dress so formally?
You don't even need your big black eyes to take a good look at me and see how precious this cloak on me is. You say I look like a bear, then what do you look like?"
Seeing Lin Zaozao's fierce appearance, Zhao Yingmei realized she had spoken too rudely. She had come to ask for Lin Xiaohua's help, but she had bad-mouthed her in front of her.
However, Lin Xiaohua wearing that cloak really didn't look like a person, but more like a big bear.
But now she dared not tell the truth and could only lower her head, awkwardly smiling apologetically at Lin Zaozao.
Seeing Zhao Yingmei's forced smile, Lin Zaozao didn't hesitate to roll her eyes at her. After handing the box to Murong Hai, she walked to Zhao Yingmei's side, swaying her tail in her hand.
"Zhao Yingmei, the Great Immortal is going to drive away the evil spirit for you now. So, from now on, close your eyes and start praying devoutly for yourself!"
Hearing Lin Zaozao's words, Zhao Yingmei, who didn't know what was going on, closed her eyes obediently, praying silently with her hands clasped together.
Seeing Zhao Yingmei close her eyes, Lin Zaozao couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. Luckily, Zhao Yingmei closed her eyes, or else she was afraid she wouldn't be able to jump down later.
After all, this playing gods and ghosts thing was her first time!
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Lin Zaozao cleared her throat, mustered up her courage, straightened the cow head hat on her head, and then began her performance as the jumping god.
"Supreme Celestial Star, ceaselessly adapting, dispelling evil and binding spirits, safeguarding life and protecting the self, wisdom shining brightly, mind calm and peaceful, the three souls eternally secure, the essence unlost or depleted. Urgent, urgent, as per the orders of the Supreme Lord Laojun!
Supreme Lord Laojun, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Tang Sanzang, the invincible Ultraman of the universe, come quickly and assist this mighty deity!"
Lin Zaozao waved his tail while twirling his cape, twisting his body and shaking his head, dancing and spinning around Zhao Yingmei. Murong Hai and Ye Yi couldn't open their eyes due to laughter, witnessing Lin Zaozao's antics.
Especially Lin Wuwu and Lin Wanwan, they were afraid that laughing out loud would spoil Lin Zaozao's performance. So they could only squat on the ground, holding their bodies and trembling with laughter.
Feeling a bit dizzy, and with no words left to continue chanting, Lin Zaozao steadied himself and, at the right moment, grabbed Zhao Yingmei's hand and shouted loudly,
"Young ghost, witness this great deity's capture!"
Taking the opportunity to transfer the illness from Zhao Yingmei's body, Lin Zaozao finally let go of her hand. With a slightly exaggerated gesture, he wiped the sweat off his forehead and said in a playful manner,
"Zhao Yingmei, you can open your eyes now. That bundle of ghostly energy on your body has already been controlled by this great deity."
