Little Sparrow cocked its head, first glancing at the Elixir Medicine in Lin Jingâs hand, then tilted its head upwards to look at Huang Qingling, as if asking a question.
Huang Qingling understood what Little Sparrow meant and said,
âChooseâ¦â
As Huang Qinglingâs words fell, Little Sparrow hopped over to Lin Jingâs side in a jiffy, then lowered its head to peck at the Medium Grade Gathering Yuan Pill.
âCheepâ¦â
Afterward, Little Sparrow looked up and called out to Lin Jing.
âAre you saying this Elixir Medicine is the best?â Lin Jing asked Little Sparrow.
After hearing this, Little Sparrow nodded its head.
âOkay, Iâll give you oneâ¦ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lin Jing said, then picked up a Low Grade Gathering Yuan Pill and offered it to Little Sparrow.
Little Sparrow was incredibly fast, swooping over in an instant, and with just a blur of a shadow, the Low Grade Gathering Yuan Pill in Lin Jingâs hand was already in Little Sparrowâs beak.
Next, Little Sparrow actually swallowed it down, and Lin Jing could clearly see the pill sliding down Little Sparrowâs throat into its belly.
It was a mystery how Little Sparrow managed to swallow such a large pill.
After swallowing it, Little Sparrow chirped.
Then, it sneakily glanced toward another Medium Grade Gathering Yuan Pill in Lin Jingâs hand.
Seeing this, Huang Qingling hurriedly warned,
âLittle Sparrow, you canât snatchâ¦â
Hearing Huang Qinglings words, Little Sparrow reluctantly withdrew its gaze.
Upon seeing this, Lin Jing thought for a moment, then turned to Huang
Qingling and said,
âCompanion Qing Ling, itâs been almost a month since we have gotten together, how about we invite Brother Li and the others over for a gathering tonight?â Upon hearing Lin Jingâs suggestion, Huang Qingling nodded again and again,
âSureâ¦â
âI was just about to mention this to youâ¦â
âSo, I have some ingredients here, but Iâm not sure if itâs enough, have you prepared anything, Lin Jing?â
Lin Jing spread his hands and said,
âI came to find you right after leaving Yuebaolou, and the gathering was a spontaneous idea, so I havenât prepared anythingâ¦â
At this point, Huang Qingling said,
âThen letâs split up and take action. You go buy some more ingredients from the street and come over, while Iâll go call Li Tangyu and Qing Qing over.â
âNo needâ¦â
Lin Jing gave a mysterious smile, and then looked at Little Sparrow. Huang Qingling followed Lin Jingâs gaze and suddenly realized.
âYou mean to let Little Sparrowâ¦â
âRightâ¦!â
Lin Jing nodded, then continued,
âLittle Sparrow is so smart, and its speed is so fast, itâs completely up to the task of running errands.â
âAs for the ingredients, just see what youâre missing, and have Brother Li bring some over.â
âGood idea, why didnât I think of thatâ¦â
Huang Qinglingâs face beamed with joy immediately.
The only one not pleased, it seemed, was Little Sparrow, as it was glaring fiercely at Lin Jing at the time.
Obviously, Little Sparrow had also understood the conversation between Lin Jing and Huang Qingling.
However, Lin Jing was completely ignoring it at the moment.
âCompanion Qing Ling, prepare some fine paper and writing materials, then explain the situation to Brother Li and have Little Sparrow take it overâ¦â
Lin Jing told Huang Qingling.
âAll right, just give me a momentâ¦â
After saying this, Huang Qingling left for the study.
After Huang Qingling had left, Lin Jing turned to look at Little Sparrow, who was still eyeing him with displeasure:
âLittle Sparrow, how about thisâ¦â
âIf you complete this task, Iâll give you the Elixir Medicine in my hand as well, howâs that?â
As he spoke, Lin Jing held up the Medium Grade Gathering Yuan Pill in his hand and shook it in front of Little Sparrow.
The eyes of Little Sparrow were immediately drawn to the Gathering Yuan Pill.
Howeverâ¦
Lin Jing quickly tucked the pill away to prevent Little Sparrow from acting dishonestly and flying over to snatch it directly.
It wasnât as if Little Sparrow hadnât done this before; now with Huang Qingling gone, Lin Jing naturally had to be more cautious.
Seeing Lin Jing put away the Elixir Medicine, Little Sparrow shifted its gaze and then looked at Lin Jingâs head, bobbing up and down, and nodded. Seeing that Little Sparrow had understood, a smile appeared on Lin Jingâs face.
Then he leaned in closer and whispered to Little Sparrow:
âLittle Sparrow, do you want more Elixir Medicine, just like the one you just had?â
As Lin Jing leaned in, Little Sparrow instinctively tried to back away, but after hearing Lin Jingâs words, it stopped.
It tilted its head in thought for a while and then, like a chick pecking at grains, it nodded its head.
Lin Jing continued:
âSo, Little Sparrowâ¦â
âFinish this task today, and I will give you this pill.â
âTomorrow, sneak over to my place and help me with something. Then, I will give you a few more pills like this one.â
âDo you want them?â
âChirpâ¦â
After hearing this, Little Sparrow chirped in response.
âRemember, donât let Daoist Qing Ling discover you, or else you wonât be able to enjoy these Elixir Medicineâ¦â
Having said that, Lin Jing turned his head to look outside the door, and upon seeing that Huang Qingling had not returned, he finally relaxed.
The matter with the Pill Master named Wang, he didnât want Huang Qingling to know, so he took this chance to discuss it with Little Sparrow.
Little Sparrow also looked towards the door following Lin Jingâs gaze and, seeing that Huang Qingling was not there, hurriedly nodded in agreement.
Thus, the man and the bird reached a secret agreement.
After a while, Huang Qingling finally walked in, holding half a sheet of paper, which had a few sentences written on it.
Upon entering, while folding the paper, Huang Qingling said to Lin Jing:
âAlrightâ¦â
âEverything that needs to be conveyed is written here.â
After speaking, Huang Qingling looked towards Lin Jing and Little Sparrow and said:
âJust now, when I was in the study, I heard Little Sparrowâs chirping. Have you figured things out with it?â
âYes, weâve figured it outâ¦â Lin Jing nodded.
âThatâs goodâ¦â replied Huang Qingling.
Lin Jing took the folded paper from Huang Qinglingâs hand, rolled it into a cylinder, and then took out a piece of thin string to tie the bundle to Little Sparrowâs leg.
Only then were they truly prepared. âAlright, Little Sparrow, off you goâ¦â Huang Qingling spoke to Little Sparrow.
âChirpâ¦â
Little Sparrow chirped in response, ready to take off, but Lin Jing stopped it.
âLittle Sparrow, waitâ¦
Upon hearing this, Little Sparrow turned around, tilting its head and looking at
Lin Jing, eyes full of confusion.
At this time, Huang Qingling also spoke up:
âLin Jing, have you forgotten anything else to tell Little Sparrow?â âNo, itâs just that I suddenly thought of something funâ¦â
Then, Lin Jing said to Little Sparrow:
âLittle Sparrow, when you go to the Li Family, first make your way there quietly, without alerting anyone. When you find Li Qingqing or Li Tangyu, jump out suddenly and give them a fright.â
âDo you understand what I mean?â
Little Sparrow first nodded, and then looked towards Huang Qingling.
Huang Qingling pursed her lips:
âLin Jing, you really are too naughtyâ¦â
Then, getting into the spirit of it, she said:
âHow can I miss out on such fun?â
After saying that, Huang Qingling gave Little Sparrow some more instructions.
âLittle Sparrow, remember not to be discovered in advance, go quietly, and give
Li Tangyu a good scare.â
âChirpâ¦â
Little Sparrow responded with a chirp.
âAlright, be on your wayâ¦â
As Huang Qinglingâs words fell, Little Sparrow transformed into a dark streak and disappeared from sight.
Meanwhile, Lin Jing and Huang Qingling waited there for the good news from
Little Sparrow..
