Baby Serendipity: The Whole World Fell In Love With Me-Chapter 552 - 551: Is there really such a delicious fruit?
Chapter 552: Chapter 551: Is there really such a delicious fruit?
Mianmian, who was distributing fruits to the little monkeys, suddenly felt a burning sensation on her back as if someone were staring at her.
She turned her head to look and saw Black Tortoise leaning against a big tree. There were no others around, which made her frown slightly.
Could it be that an enemy had stealthily approached? Was it Fen Tian? Had Fen Tian, who had his arm chopped off, still not learned his lesson? But with Uncle Xuan Wu here, it shouldn’t be a problem, right?
Little Bun turned back and continued to give the monkeys their fruits.
The monkeys had been well-trained by Brother Hou, queuing up politely. They would just stretch out their paws when they reached her, without grabbing or causing a commotion.
After she had handed out fruits to the bigger monkeys, Mianmian walked over to Brother Hou’s side and offered a banana to a little monkey in his arms.
Brother Hou was sitting on the ground at that time. The little monkey, upon smelling the banana, cautiously glanced at Mianmian.
Only when it was sure that Mianmian wasn’t a threat did it stretch out its little paw and gently accepted the banana to eat in small bites.
Seeing the face of the little monkey, Mianmian was momentarily stunned.
With her Heavenly Eye and her divination capabilities, she could see the entire lives of the other little monkeys at a glance. But with this particular little monkey, aside from discerning a blood relationship with its monkey mother and figuring out who in the monkey group was its father, she could not see anything else about it.
This situation had only occurred with Yang Xian and Situ Zha before, indicating that... this little monkey was also a reincarnation of a god.
Actually, Mianmian had always thought that the Great Saint Master, transcendental and beyond the Three Realms, wouldn’t reincarnate. But now, right in front of her, was a suspicious little monkey.
This, this, this... What should she do!!
Unable to believe the reality, Mianmian took several steps back.
Seeing Mianmian like this, Black Tortoise walked over in just a few steps.
As soon as he approached, his oppressive aura scared the monkeys into running away quickly; in a while, they were nowhere to be seen.
Only the little monkey in Brother Hou’s arms, who had nowhere to run like the other monkeys, tried to burrow into Brother Hou’s embrace, holding the banana.
"Uncle Xuan Wu, why did you come over?" Mianmian looked up and asked Black Tortoise.
Black Tortoise lowered his gaze, "Why did you move back?"
Mianmian scratched her head, "Mianmian, Mianmian... Ahhhh."
She appeared hesitant to speak, and Black Tortoise, narrowing his eyes, applied the Sound Transmission Technique on Mianmian, "Tell me like this."
He also taught Mianmian the incantation for the Sound Transmission Technique.
After Mianmian learned the magic, she used it to say to Black Tortoise, "I can’t divine the future of this little monkey. Usually, those I can’t divine... are reincarnations of gods."
Hearing this, Black Tortoise looked down at the little monkey nestled in Brother Hou’s arms. As he watched, he also observed Brother Hou.
Brother Hou knew of Black Tortoise’s identity; he would follow Mianmian’s variety shows diligently after work every day. Suddenly facing scrutiny from Black Tortoise, Brother Hou, mistaking it for there being something wrong with himself, asked, shivering, "Little Auntie, Lord Black Tortoise, do I... do I have some issue?"
Black Tortoise didn’t speak but instead transmitted to Mianmian, "You push this man’s past further back. Go back by seven or eight hundred years."
Mianmian had not attempted to divine such a distant past before, but now with Black Tortoise’s prompt, she used the Divination Method to check.
Through the Heavenly Eye, Brother Hou’s distant past lives unfolded before her. She then widened her eyes in shock, uttering an "Ah". Brother Hou had lived near the mountains as well, but that mountain was known as Wuzhi Mountain. He often went up to chop firewood and would throw the peaches from the trees to the monkeys on Wuzhi Mountain.
The intricate threads of fate gradually collided, bringing the pitiful little monkey once crushed under the mountain together with the young man who used to feed him.
Brother Hou couldn’t hear the conversation between Mianmian and Black Tortoise and shivered all over.
He truly didn’t understand what was happening. Both deities were looking at him, making gestures, and the pressure felt worse than his boss threatening to fire him.
While Brother Hou trembled in fear, the little monkey on his shoulder finished the banana.
The little monkey blinked its eyes, and at that moment, it slowly turned around and stealthily extended its small hand towards Mianmian again, "Jiji?"
Mianmian quickly took out another apple for the little monkey.
The little monkey took the apple and crunched into it fiercely, eating at a remarkably fast pace.
Seeing this, Brother Hou quickly intervened, "Don’t eat so much; eating more will make you sick."
The little monkey had a weak stomach, and its diet had been consulted and reconstituted by a professor who came to check on the monkeys before, all to prevent the little monkey from having health issues.
"No worries," Mianmian assured Brother Hou. "Mianmian’s apples are different; the little monkey won’t have any issues eating them."
Moreover, its body would get even stronger!
If the little monkey truly was a reincarnation of the Great Sage, these apples would likely be very beneficial to it. Moreover, the effects would kick in even faster. This was just like Yang Xian learning magic late but mastering entrance into the Spiritual Residence in a short span.
And it was just as Mianmian said, the little monkey ate one big apple and one banana without its tummy bulging out.
Its eyes became brighter than before, and it reached out its little paw toward Mianmian, looking hopeful.
Mianmian, seeing the little monkey still wanted to eat, whispered, "May I touch your hand?"
The little monkey nodded.
Mianmian touched the pulse of the little monkey to make sure there were no issues before taking out more fruits for the little monkey to choose from.
The little monkey carefully climbed down from Brother Hou and looked around, finally picking a peach which it hadn’t eaten before.
It ate the peach with rapture, its eyes squinting in delight, looking adorable.
Brother Hou felt the little monkey’s belly and found it unbelievable.
"How can your fruits be so magical? Usually, it gets a swollen belly from a single banana, but today it ate two and the belly isn’t bulging at all."
Mianmian chuckled, "Brother Hou, you can have some too. Here you go."
Brother Hou wasn’t picky; he took the apple from Mianmian’s hand, wiped it on his clothes, and started eating. With one bite, the juice splashed out, and the sweetness filled his mouth.
He couldn’t believe it, "Is there really such delicious fruit in the world?"
Without answering Brother Hou, Mianmian looked to the side, confused.
She felt the same burning gaze again, this time it was coming from the direction of Black Tortoise. But when she looked over, nothing happened again.
Little Bun found it very strange, and finally used the Sound Transmission Technique to ask Black Tortoise, "Uncle Xuan Wu, do you feel anything strange?"
Black Tortoise: "...No."
Mianmian muttered, "But Mianmian keeps feeling someone is watching me, staring at me."
Black Tortoise ignored Mianmian’s comment and turned to look at Brother Hou.
Brother Hou was scarfing down the apple with bits of it all around his mouth, earnestly declaring how good the apple tasted.
As Brother Hou basked in the deliciousness, he noticed Black Tortoise eyeing him with what seemed to be jealousy. After a moment of thought, Brother Hou awkwardly offered, "Um, Ancestor Black Tortoise, would you also like an apple?"
Black Tortoise: ...
No, he didn’t want one!
