Chapter 147: Chapter 146 Speaking with the Law - 1

So, Rabbit and Niu Dali snuck into Wenqu Palace, only to hear a continuous clatter inside.

"Rabbit, we have three tables now, that’s enough, isn’t it? Why are you taking so many?"

"There are many rooms, for entertaining guests in the future."

"We don’t need the lectern, do we?"

"For eating..."

"That’s a door panel..."

"Err, okay then, let’s not take this apart, come on come on... let’s go home."

...

Then, the figures of a big and a small person sneaked away stealthily.

"Rabbit, I think if you take so many, the teacher is going to lose it tomorrow."

"No, it will all be returned tomorrow."

"Returned? Weren’t you planning to keep it for yourself?"

"What a joke, would I, the great Rabbit, be the kind of person to steal something and not return it?"

"I remember there was an apple tree at the entrance of Wenqu Palace..."

"...You must be hallucinating... absolutely hallucinating..."

"Rabbit, are you really going to return the tables tomorrow?"

"Of course," Qin Shou replied as if it were a matter of course.

As far as Qin Shou was concerned, these tables were just makeshift, with no spiritual energy, not even as good as gnawing on the bark of an osmanthus tree or using it for firewood... after all, nothing burned better than the flimsy wood of the osmanthus tree. In short, they were merely a temporary replacement for a bed.

It wasn’t easy to have a guest at home, so of course one had to make some arrangements, nothing more.

As for keeping them for long-term use?

Sorry, but the damn rabbit didn’t fancy these tables at all... he had the stars and the sea in his heart.

So, returning them was a must.

Seeing Rabbit’s confident answer, Niu Dali nodded slightly, indicating he believed the Rabbit.

"Rabbit, thank you for this," Niu Dali said.

Qin Shou waved his hand and declared, "Don’t mention it. The ancients said there are three ’irons’ in building relationships: studying together, carrying a gun together, and visiting... um, Heaven’s brothels together. We are classmates and have also ’visited’ Heaven together, our bond is ironclad."

Upon hearing the latter part, Niu Dali paused, then, recalling Rabbit’s crooked theories, he said, "That makes sense... Who was the saint that said this?"

Qin Shou paused, stroked his chin, and replied, "His name is Rabbit Niu Bi’s Really Amazing Thieving Genius."

"What a long name. Why do I feel like that’s referring to you?" Niu Dali asked.

"Don’t sweat the small stuff," Qin Shou said with a red face.

Once they left the Southern Gate, Qin Shou summoned the carriage, and they rode it back to the Moon Palace.

At the same time, the Four Seas Dragon Kings gathered together. Seeing the carriage return, their eyes all lit up.

"Rabbit has returned, why hasn’t the shrimp general come back yet?" the Dragon King of the Northern Sea was getting impatient.

The South Sea Dragon King said, "Never mind, I will send two more to check on it. You two brothers, go and see what’s the matter with the shrimp general!"

"Yes! Your Majesty!" Two shrimp generals, looking exactly alike, bent at the waist and bowed their backs, came forward to salute, then withdrew.

Meanwhile, Qin Shou brought Niu Dali down from the clouds and entered the Moon Palace.

As soon as Niu Dali entered, he saw the only patch of green in the Moon Palace and raised an eyebrow, "Rabbit, that apple tree looks very familiar."

Qin Shou waved his hand, "All apple trees look the same, it’s not strange that you find it familiar. Your room is over there, take whatever tables you grabbed and find a spot to sleep. I’m going to take a stroll..."

Qin Shou was preoccupied with that lightning strike in the Moon Palace, never feeling at ease, so he went to inspect it again.

After a thorough inspection and finding nothing, he felt quite frustrated. Standing in the courtyard, he looked up at the sky, pondering the relationship between lightning and grilled shrimp...

Niu Dali found a room, put two tables together to serve as a bed, and then came out as well.

"What are you doing, Rabbit?" Niu Dali asked, puzzled.

Qin Shou said, "What’s the principle behind thunder suddenly raging in the sky and dropping a roasted shrimp?"

Upon hearing this, Niu Dali burst into laughter, "Stop joking, I’ve seen roasted birds, but roasted shrimp? How is that possible? Shrimp swim in the water, they don’t fly in the sky..."

As soon as his voice faded, a loud bang erupted, the sound immense, deafening!

Qin Shou and Niu Dali were so shocked by this clear-sky thunderclap that all their hairs stood on end!

Then they saw a black bolt of lightning rip through the sky...

Simultaneously, two sounds as if something got electrified resounded, crackling with pops.

Then, the two saw two black dots falling from the sky, growing bigger and bigger, until finally with a splat, two large lumps of something charred black landed right in front of them!

And that black lightning suddenly changed direction, heading straight for the Moon Palace!

The Rabbit, recalling the previous scene, gritted his teeth, decided not to run, and instead wanted to see exactly what this thing was!

However, Niu Dali beside him couldn’t stand still. Seeing the Rabbit with wide eyes not running, he thought the guy was paralyzed with fear, and quickly grabbed the Rabbit’s ear, dragging the Rabbit into the Moon Palace.

Then...

"Niu Dali, why did you pull me back?" Qin Shou called out.

"If I hadn’t pulled you back, you would’ve been struck dead. Huh? The thunder struck, but why isn’t there any noise?" Niu Dali was somewhat perplexed.

Qin Shou ignored him, rushing out to check the situation, circling around the Moon Palace, indeed, the lightning was gone... The Moon Palace was completely undamaged!

Niu Dali followed in a circle, then scratching his head, he said, "Strange and surprising, the black lightning clearly struck down, how is it the Moon Palace is completely unscathed? Could it be that, the Moon Palace has some protective Array?"

With this, a light bulb went off in Qin Shou’s head, seemingly a plausible explanation.

But then, why was there no noise when the Array collided with the lightning? Could it be that the Array was terrifyingly powerful to such an extent?

Unable to figure it out, they decided to drop the matter and thought about asking others later on.

At that moment, Niu Dali exclaimed, "I swear, Rabbit, there really are shrimp that have fallen!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Shou quickly looked down, and sure enough, two over two meters long black, shrimp-shaped objects lay motionless on the ground.

Niu Dali peeled off the charred black layer, revealing the red shell within...

Smelling the fragrance that wafted out, the two immediately started drooling.

Qin Shou asked, "Convinced?"

Niu Dali nodded.

Qin Shou asked, "Know what caused it?"

Niu Dali shook his head.

"Then forget it, let’s eat. Probably god knew I had guests over and sent two at once, how polite..." Qin Shou shook his head and then sat down with Niu Dali in the courtyard, enjoying their delicious meal.

Meanwhile, at the Dragon Palace.

"Reporting to the Dragon King! The soul tablets of the two shrimp generals have shattered! The shrimp general’s soul tablet has also shattered!" a shrimp soldier reported.

The South Sea Dragon King was startled, "What? All three generals have perished? That damn Rabbit, he really went for the kill!"

"It doesn’t make sense, that Rabbit shouldn’t possess such strength," said the Dragon King of the East Sea.

The Dragon King of the Northern Sea said, "Brothers, I think now is not the time to talk about this. No matter the reason, the three generals died on the moon, and however you look at it, that Rabbit can’t be exonerated."

"The fourth brother makes sense, no matter the reason, going after that Rabbit is definitely the right move. Second brother, your shrimp general was no good, but I have a competent warrior. He is an ice crab spirit, with a body of icy armor, impervious to blade and flame, and a cultivation base comparable to a Seven Star Human Immortal. He is willing to go and support!" proclaimed the Western Sea Dragon King.

Upon hearing this, the South Sea Dragon King’s face darkened... What’s this? Seeing your brother’s subordinates suffer, you come to show off? Taking the chance to show off, aiming to be next in line?

But as the Western Sea Dragon King spoke elegantly, the South Sea Dragon King couldn’t refuse and could only nod in agreement.

The Western Sea Dragon King was overjoyed, waved his command in motion, and not long after, a mass of clouds flew up into the sky, heading straight for the Moon Palace.

On the other hand, Qin Shou and Niu Dali were enjoying their feast, with Qin Shou feeling the Yuan Qi within him growing more and more, the feeling exceptionally good... his mood exceptionally buoyant.

Unfortunately, letting loose with the eating, the Rabbit’s appetite turned out to be quite big, easily finishing off the huge shrimp.

The Rabbit, still unsatisfied, said, "Delicious... but a pity, just one is not enough to satisfy."
