How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

Hong Xiaoli's hand was slapped, and the mushroom slipped from her grasp. She couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise.

"No—Little Mushroom—"

"Paji"

The mushroom fell into a clump of bushes.

"Black! Sun! Brother!"

Hong Xiaoli turned her head, put her hands on her hips, and said fiercely, "What are you doing!"

"Stop talking nonsense, put your hand out..."

Hei Xiaoyang took off his water bottle, pulled out a towel, grabbed Hong Xiaoli's little hand, poured water into it, and then vigorously wiped it: "Hehehehehe!"

"Hey! What's with that 'hey-ha' from Brother Heiyang?!"

Hong Xiaoli exclaimed, "Brother Heiyang, are you going to rub my skin off?"

"Right on my mind!"

Hei Xiaoyang asked, "Where else did you touch that thing? Tell me honestly."

"Hmph, Xiao Li, I don't know what you're talking about."

Hong Xiaoli turned her head away, looking annoyed and sulking.

"Brother Heiyang is a big bad guy. I won't talk to Brother Heiyang for the next ten minutes. Brother Heiyang, let go of my hand and don't touch it! Unless you apologize right now!"

"You big dummy!"

Hei Xiaoyang said bluntly, "Quick, that hand!"

"You insulted me again! How awful!"

Hong Xiaoli turned her head away and hid her other hand: "I won't give it to you!"

"Hurry up and stop dawdling here, or I'll beat you up!"

"Then I'll go tell Aunt Yiyi! I'll tell her to spank you!"

"Then you'll have to go back before you can file a complaint. I'll just beat you up here!"

"Hmph! I'm not afraid of you! I'm no worse than you in a one-on-one fight!"

"I brought my sword."

"Waaaaah, it's okay now, waaaaah, Brother Heiyang bullied me, Mommy, Daddy, come quick, poor Xiaoli..."

"..."

Hei Xiaoyang held Hong Xiaoli's hands and examined them carefully to make sure they were clean. He then asked, "So, you're sure you didn't eat that kind of thing, right?"

"No."

Hong Xiaoli snorted: "Even if I have some, I won't tell you. I'll just eat it secretly behind your back and not let you eat it!"

"Xiao Li, stop messing around. It's either yes or no!"

Hei Xiaoyang was extremely anxious. He looked up from his squatting position, his eyes slightly red, and said, "Xiaoli, tell me the truth, don't lie to Brother Heiyang, okay? Did you eat or not...?"

"Ugh..."

Hong Xiaoli was startled and quickly shook her head, saying, "No, no, I'm not stupid. How can I eat something that hasn't been cooked before..."

"Brother Heiyang, don't cry! I'll never eat alone again. Next time, I'll definitely take you with me!"

"..."

"..."

"The expression on your face when I first saw you scared me to death."

Hongli leaned her head against Heiyang and said with a helpless smile, "I was thinking, 'Oh no, I made Brother Heiyang cry. I hope he won't tell my mom...'"

"How dare you say that? You scared me, but I was the one who was scared!"

Hei Yang couldn't help but pat Hong Li's head and complained, "You really scared me to death back then. Look, even your dad was scared to tears. You're such a worry."

"hey-hey……"

Hongli rubbed her head, knowing she was in the wrong, and chuckled.

"In short, anything that has happened in the past becomes interesting when you look back on it."

"Thank you, Yangyang, for saving my life! I have no way to repay you but to offer myself in gratitude."

"Tch, you owe me way more than this, this is nothing..."

"Ah, yes, yes."

"But I owe you a lot too, sigh, I can't pay it back. Let's just leave it at that, what else can we do but get a divorce?"

"really."

Hongli's eyebrows curved into crescent moons as she felt the reassuring aura around her. She smiled and said, "That's it. What else can I do? I'll be with you forever. And you're not allowed to run away. You're my private property."

"..."

"..."

"Hmph, just you wait, Brother Heiyang."

Hong Xiaoli glared angrily at Hei Xiaoyang for burying all the mushrooms she had painstakingly collected. Her dream of being praised by her parents was shattered, and all her drooling had been for nothing. Even if it was Hei Yang, this was going too far!

"When I grow taller and stronger than you, I'm going to bully you every day, bully you every day, pin you down on the bed and beat you up."

"You can't just say things like that..."

Hei Xiaoyang muttered something, and seeing that Hong Xiaoli was alright, he breathed a sigh of relief and finally had the mood to retort: ​​"You think you're taller than me? Dream on."

"Ha, you know I'm definitely not as tall as you?"

Hong Xiaoli snorted lightly and said logically, "My mom said that I haven't reached the point of real growth yet. When I reach puberty, I'll undergo a complete transformation..."

"Isn't it true that girls change a lot as they grow up?"

"That's not important."

Hong Xiaoli confidently raised her head and lightly jumped twice on the spot.

"Then I'll have a pair of long legs, reach out and touch your head, and say, 'Hey, isn't this Yangyang? How come you're so useless now?'"

"Ha ha……"

"Hey, you don't believe me, do you!"

Hong Xiaoli ran to a tree, stood up straight with her back to it, and gestured with her palms above her head.

"Look, I'm this tall now, right?"

"Hmm, what next?"

"Then, Brother Heiyang, please draw a mark on it for me so I can study it carefully."

"uh-huh."

Hei Xiaoyang drew his small sword and casually slashed at the tree trunk above Hong Xiaoli's head: "Done."

"Hmm, very good, let me see..."

Hong Xiaoli stroked her chin, turned to look at Hei Xiaoyang, then turned to look at the marks on the tree. After thinking carefully for a while, her eyes lit up. She reached out and took Hei Xiaoyang's sword, and with a light leap, she made another mark.

"Great! When I grow this tall, I'll be able to pat your head!"

"..."

"..."

"As a result, I have reached my original target location."

Hongli looked at the scratches, then turned to look at Heiyang, and sighed helplessly.

"But I forgot that you, you little rascal, can grow taller too! Why are you growing so fast? Are you afraid I'll pat your head? How awful!"

"Hahaha."

Hei Yang couldn't help but laugh. He bent down, lowered his head, and brought his head in front of Hong Li, chuckling, "Is this alright, my dear wife?"

"Hmm, not bad, not bad, Xiaoyangzi, you are sensible."

Hong Li nodded in satisfaction and reached out to rub the black dog's head.

"Sometimes, you don't necessarily have to use a pre-planned method to achieve your goals, hehe..."

Chapter 372 Keep going, catch up with the shining version of yourself!

Among the Hei Yang family's group, even the two girls, Hei Hui and Hong Qiao, who had the lowest cultivation levels, were at the seventh level of Body Tempering. So even though they were bickering and fighting along the way, their progress was still not very slow.

To the southwest of Five Colors City stretches an endless range of mountains and forests, while to the northwest lies a vast, flat grassland. Following the main road around the forest leads to the plains.

Looking into the distance from the plains here, you can vaguely see two or three towns that are smaller than Five Colors City. Hei Yang and his group are still following the repaired main road. If they wander off, they might fall into the muddy swamp.

Although the mud swamps weren't a threat to Hei Yang and his friends, they would get their clothes dirty and ruin their mood. After all, they weren't some hair dryer pig who didn't like jumping in mud puddles.
