"Oh ho! I get it! Look at Mommy!"
Xingyun took a deep breath, her chopsticks trembled violently, and she plunged them into the battlefield, leaving trails of afterimages.
"Watch me, I'll change the Xing family knife technique to double-edged cutting!"
"Ah, huh?"
Little Huo held a small spoon, blinked, and stared blankly at the empty bowl in front of him, lost in thought.
The next moment, when Xiao Huo looked again, he was surprised to find a pile of food overflowing from the bowl, and he heard the voices of his elders.
"Little Fire, look after Grandma!"
"Little Fire, Grandma will beat them all down for you!"
"Mom said, eat as much as you want!"
"Is a little fire enough? If not, Dad will give you a billion more!"
"How about a little wine over a small fire?"
"Hong Xiaochen, how dare you?!"
"..."
"Ah this..."
Little Fire stared blankly up at the food piling up in the bowl, then looked at the little spoon in its hand, and suddenly smiled.
"Ha, right, Little Fire is still a child."
Little Fire nodded happily, digging into the vegetable mountain with a small spoon, and squinting its eyes in bliss.
"It's so wonderful to be a child, so wonderful to be with your parents!"
"However, there is a very serious problem..."
Hei Muguang looked shocked: "Where's the wine? How can such a grand banquet be without wine? How can the wine be separated from the banquet?!"
"Indeed!"
Hong Xiaochen chimed in, "No feast is complete without wine! How can this be allowed?!"
"If you want to drink, go somewhere else."
Qing Yiyi rolled her eyes: "These are all kids, no one will drink with you."
"uh-huh."
Lan Yuying nodded: "Juice or milk, or plain water, it's up to you."
"I choose the wine!"
"No such item found!"
"These dishes are all delicious. Did Aunt Yuying make them?"
Xingyun's eyes lit up.
"Xiao Li got a share too!"
Lan Yuying looked pleased.
Xingyun: "!!!"
Hongling: "!!!"
Little Fire: "!!!"
"Pfft haha..."
Seeing their expressions, Hei Yang couldn't help but pat Hong Li, who looked displeased.
"Over there, this is called Werewolf."
"Black Sun, shut up!"
"..."
"..."
"But then again..."
Hongli, sipping her warm milk, turned her head to look at her aunt Hongling, who was fiddling with something under the table, and asked curiously, "Auntie, what are you doing?"
"I suspect it's a time bomb!"
Hei Yang boldly speculated: "After we finish eating, when we're most relaxed, we'll be blown to bits and sent flying into the sky."
"Black Sun, shut up."
Hong Li rolled her eyes and craned her neck: "Huh? A spirit stone?"
"See? I told you it was a bomb!"
Black Sun crawled out of the decaying coffin and continued to output: "Just like the communication spirit stone, with a little modification, it can be blasted..."
"Black Sun, shut up."
"Uh, haha, you're asking about that?"
Hongling frowned as she took the spirit stone from under the table, held it up, and squinted as she examined it closely.
"According to Elder Huo, it's a photographic spirit stone modified from a communication spirit stone. It can record images and develop them on spirit paper, making them look just like the real thing..."
It's said that by removing the communication, sound transmission, and positioning arrays, the previously bloated space can be used more effectively...
In short, he rambled on and on, but I didn't hear a thing.
Hongling waved the photo-taking stone around aimlessly, just like someone trying to mooch off someone else's Wi-Fi.
"However, I haven't fully figured it out yet, and I'm not very good at using it..."
However, I've already figured it out. Once I've learned how to use this thing, we can take a picture together when we leave, as a souvenir or something..."
Hongling chattered away, attracting the curiosity of everyone at the table, who all crowded around to examine her, just like children discovering a new toy.
Only Hei Yang and Hong Li remained seated, comfortably drinking their juice and milk.
"Hey, that one, that one..."
Hongli stuck out her little tongue and licked the milk stains from the corner of her mouth, then reached out and patted Heiyang's shoulder, making him turn his head towards her.
"That thing, is it similar to that thing from that world... um, a camera, is that what it's called? Doesn't it look a lot like that?"
"Judging from the description alone, they should be very similar..."
Hei Yang looked up, thought for a moment, and replied, "To be honest, it was somewhat unexpected that this thing was developed after the communication spirit stone."
But then I remembered that where I'm from, matches are still played with lighters, so I didn't bother thinking about it anymore. After all, I'm not an expert in this field.
"uh-huh……"
Hearing Hei Yang's answer, Hong Li nodded thoughtfully. Come to think of it, she and Hei Yang had already been in contact with taking and sending pictures when they communicated using the Lazy Dog Rescue Device.
However, unlike the image-recording spirit stone, or rather, a camera, the pictures taken during their daily interactions cannot be developed on the spirit paper; only the two of them can see them.
"That is to say..."
Hong Li glanced down at her clothes, her lips twitching: "Am I going to have my image in a dress recorded and hung on a pillar of shame for people to laugh at for centuries?"
"hiss……"
Hongli's eyelids twitched.
"No, I need to change my clothes. Or maybe I should just slip away now. Don't novels say that masters never leave behind anything like portraits..."
"Isn't it precisely because it's relatively rare that it has commemorative significance?"
Hei Yang tugged at his dark brocade robe and sighed, "To be honest, it's really uncomfortable to wear. I have to be careful not to get any stains on it when I eat."
Later, he simply used his spiritual power to completely protect his body, and only then could he enjoy the meal to his heart's content.
"Hey?"
Hongli exclaimed in surprise, "Is that even possible?"
"uh-huh."
"Alright... Hey Hey Yang, can your girlfriend ask you a favor?"
"explain."
"readily!"
Hong Li chuckled, then looked embarrassed and whispered her complaint.
“My mom took away all the clothes I usually wear and moved them to this house. They are all the fancy clothes that my mom bought for me, trying to force me to wear them.”
Hong Li sighed and clenched her fists.
"But! As a Crimson Glass, how can I succumb to such a thing? I will absolutely not compromise!"
"so?"
Hei Yang raised an eyebrow, roughly knowing what Hong Li wanted to say.
"That's right, didn't you learn a great tailoring skill?"
