Chapter 56: Chapter 56 Rabbit’s Illness_1

Qin Shou found that covering his ears seemed indeed to be of no use... Feeling helpless, he asked, "Boss, if you want to eat dog meat, just go eat dog meat... Why are you looking for me? I’m just a rabbit..."

Rhino Spirit laughed, "I told you, you’re no ordinary rabbit, you can be a huge help. Plus, the way you were eating earlier reminded me of my childhood. So, it’s a case of meeting too late..."

Qin Shou rolled his eyes so hard they could have fallen out. This guy had a face covered in rough skin, clearly not a good bird! Believe him? In your dreams! "Meeting too late"? "Looking for a bowl" is probably more like it!

Rhino Spirit saw that Qin Shou remained silent and continued, "Ah, rabbit, let me tell you, the taste of dog meat... As the saying goes, once the dog meat has rolled three times, even immortals can’t stand still. Such deliciousness is hard to find in Heaven and on Earth... Furthermore, there are different grades of dog meat. This top-quality dog meat, currently, this is the only one. Eating it is worth it... Moreover, this dog has absorbed the essence of the sun and moon, refining its body every day, and the Yuan Qi within is extremely abundant. Eating it would definitely be a great nourishment!"

Qin Shou looked at Rhino Spirit continuously wiping his drooling mouth, speechless... So there are such characters in Heavenly Court! Is the Jade Emperor blind? But the talk of being greatly nourished did make the rabbit a bit tempted, though being tempted doesn’t mean he was ready to seek death.

Qin Shou said, "If you want to eat dog meat, why don’t you just do it yourself? Why must you drag me along?" After asking, Qin Shou suddenly shivered, instinctively glancing at Dog Xiaotian. If he remembered correctly, Dog Xiaotian seemed to have an injured leg... Could it be?

Rhino Spirit, seeming to know what Qin Shou was thinking, chuckled, "I did that. Last time I almost had him... Ah, what a pity for my great ingredients; I was just short of some good meat."

Upon hearing this, Qin Shou’s fur nearly stood on end.

Qin Shou could be mischievous, but there was a limit to his mischief—tricking others with some inconsequential rubbish magic treasures, or commonly seen magic... For many immortals, such things hardly mattered. They weren’t enough to warrant a blood vendetta...

But the deal with Rhino Spirit was truly frightening. If he actually succeeded, the dog meat may be tasty... but whether there would be life left to enjoy it was another matter!

Did he really think the Erlang God was just for show?

At the same time, Qin Shou became increasingly certain that Rhino Spirit was no ordinary creature, or else he would never dare to target Dog Xiaotian! As for seeking his help? Probably because he feared there wouldn’t be enough dog meat and planned to stuff some rabbit meat in, mixing it together...

So Qin Shou decisively determined that he must not touch this mess, otherwise, he’d be courting a huge disaster!

As a result, Qin Shou decisively pretended to be dumb and cute, staring blankly at Rhino Spirit, and asked, "What did you say?"

Rhino Spirit was taken aback, "What I said, you don’t know?"

Qin Shou cocked his head, naively asking, "What did you say again?"

Rhino Spirit stared at Qin Shou and asked, "Are you playing dumb?"

Qin Shou naively replied, "What’s playing dumb? How do you play?"

Rhino Spirit: "..."

Looking at the suddenly naive and cute rabbit in front of him, Rhino Spirit narrowed his eyes, "Little rabbit, think carefully. You’ve already learned of my plans. If you don’t help me... Well, I wouldn’t mind making another pot of rabbit soup."

Upon hearing this, Qin Shou’s face darkened immediately—this guy seemed to have set his sights on him...

He was not Dog Xiaotian; he didn’t have powerful backing, and even with such backing, Dog Xiaotian was still eyed covetously... If he were to be targeted, it might truly be horrible.

Qin Shou looked at Rhino Spirit and asked, "I’ll help you, but the things you told me must be worth the price."

The Rhino Spirit chuckled, "Then let me tell you something first; you can weigh it for yourself."

Qin Shou’s eyes lit up as he asked, "What’s that?"

The Rhino Spirit said, "Do you think your deficiency of Yuan Qi is simply because you have an insufficient amount of it?"

Qin Shou was astonished...

The Rhino Spirit continued, "Any deficiency of Yuan Qi, as long as one is in a place abundant with Yuan Qi or consumes a large amount of Yuan Qi, can be cured. But, have all those magic treasures you’ve eaten been of any help?"

Cold sweat began to form on Qin Shou’s forehead—if not relying on consuming Yuan Qi to cure his illness, then... how could he save himself?

The Rhino Spirit leaned in and said, "Have you not noticed that your body didn’t get better because you swallowed Yuan Qi, but it has been improving while you were causing trouble?"

Upon hearing these words, Qin Shou was completely stunned and asked, "What do you mean?"

"What do I mean? Heh... Go and feel it for yourself," the Rhino Spirit said with a secretive smile.

Qin Shou looked at the Rhino Spirit skeptically and said, "Causing trouble will make my body better? Do you think I’d believe such a theory?"

The Rhino Spirit replied, "Believe it or not, won’t you know once you try?"

Qin Shou squinted his eyes and suddenly pointed behind the Rhino Spirit, saying, "Dog Xiaotian is here."

The Rhino Spirit instinctively looked back, and Qin Shou slapped a plate onto the Rhino Spirit’s forehead with a smack!

The Rhino Spirit was taken aback for a moment and was just about to get angry...

When he saw the Rabbit give him a toothy smile, saying, "Listening to you, just giving it a try... Don’t be mad."

At these words, the Rhino Spirit became even angrier... Asking you to try was to find someone else, why hit me?

Qin Shou, seeing the Rhino Spirit’s annoyed look, hurriedly felt for changes within his body. He had thought the Rhino Spirit was deceiving him, but this time, after carefully observing the changes inside, he was surprised to find that a stream of black Qi had entered his body and was absorbed by all his cells!

Then, to his astonishment, he found that the speed at which his physical body absorbed Yuan Qi slowed down a bit... Although it was just a tiny bit, Qin Shou vaguely understood something.

The Rhino Spirit, seeing Qin Shou’s dumbfounded expression, knew that Qin Shou had seen what he needed to see.

So the Rhino Spirit said, "If you want to live, there are two paths. One is to constantly devour various things abundant in Yuan Qi. However, treasures of Heaven and Earth all have their own masters, and your body is a glutton that will become increasingly voracious. So... if you choose this path, your only option will be relentless robbery, followed by being beaten to death. The second path is to learn to shut your flesh up. Otherwise, they will consume you."

Qin Shou asked puzzledly, "But, I still can’t figure out, how could someone else being angry affect me?"

The Rhino Spirit laughed and said, "Actually, the reason is very simple. Why do many say that to cultivate one must renounce all emotions and desires? Although this is a misguided saying, it cannot be denied that it’s also a shortcut. Cultivation goes against the natural order; although you won’t necessarily get slapped to death by god, you must still be cautious and careful every step of the way. This caution isn’t about god, but about karma. For example, you obtained a cultivation method, started to cultivate, and a straight path lies ahead of you.
