Chapter 1005: Peach Blossom Spring (Extra)
"Hahahaha! Hemorrhoids, truly exceptional!"
Su Tang listened to Ye Qiao recount her amusing experiences after she had crossed over to this world and couldn’t stop laughing.
"And then?"
Ye Qiao gave a helpless, bitter smile. "Then I took people into the forest to find the only type of herb I knew that could cool one’s fires, the root of the dandelion.
Every day, I could see people in the tribe drinking tea with big gulps, and now that I think about it, I still feel a bit guilty."
"Hahaha... goose, goose, goose~"
Su Tang laughed so hard she turned into a goose.
She gently wiped away the tears of laughter from the corners of her eyes and said, "No wonder the white tiger beastmen were so restrained when eating hot pot; I once thought they got tired of it, thinking it wasn’t tasty, but it turns out they had a psychological shadow."
Ye Qiao shook her head, smiling helplessly.
Su Tang didn’t ask for the rest of the story, as she could guess most of it from their everyday interactions, as well as what Ye Qiao inadvertently let slip.
It was nothing more than Gaiyin being born, and shortly after, the White Tiger Clan faced a Beast Tide.
On the road of escape, Gaiyin was accidentally lost, and Ye Qiao was downhearted for a long time.
Then after they found a new tribal land, it took a long time for Ye Qiao to recover.
After having Little Gaiya, he was kidnapped by the detestable Bai Zheng, and Ye Qiao chased after him until they met.
In just a few words, a story that seems so casually told.
But Su Tang knew how much hardship Ye Qiao had endured in this seemingly simple story.
Everyone has scars hidden deep within their hearts that they don’t want others to see; now that they’re exposed to the sunlight, let them slowly heal over time.
"Sugar cub, I almost forgot this, for you."
Yadang walked inside and handed her something rolled up that looked like a book.
Su Tang took it, asking curiously, "What is this?"
Yadang explained, "Momo and I were eliminated during the test in the Wood Immortal Mansion, so following what you said, we found this book in an ancient tree.
The moment we got this book, we immediately rushed back to Peach Blossom Land. We were so preoccupied with finding you that we forgot about it, but seeing it today, I brought it over."
Reminded by Yadang, Su Tang immediately remembered.
This book might just be the very precious one of the emperor of the Ten Thousands Beast Country.
Now she became somewhat curious about what was recorded in this book.
The book had a sense of age to it; the cover was already gone, the pages were very thin, similar to rice paper but more durable, and the yellowed pages were densely filled with an unrecognizable script, giving off an elegant and carefree appearance.
Ye Qiao also came over very curiously. "What’s it written about?"
Since it was in traditional characters, and the quality of the paper and ink was likely not very good, with some spots already blotted, reading it was particularly strenuous.
Long ago, in the Beast God Continent, there were tigers, lions, foxes, and other creatures that could become humans, those who could transform were called beastmen...
Su Tang and Ye Qiao exchanged glances, both seeing a touch of resignation in each other’s eyes.
"Classical Chinese, huh? It’s truly a headache. Sugar cub, translate it for me."
Su Tang also felt a headache coming on but steeled herself for the task.
"It seems to say that a long time ago, there was a place called the Beast God Continent, where many animals like tigers, lions, and foxes could turn into humans, and those who transformed were called beastmen."
Having translated just that bit, Su Tang stroked her chin and speculated, "Could this be an autobiography written by that emperor?"
