Chapter 162 - Chapter 162: Chapter 162: Secret Agreement (2/2)
It wasn’t as if Little Sparrow hadn’t 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 Jing’s head, bobbing up and down, and nodded. Seeing that Little Sparrow had understood, a smile appeared on Lin Jing’s face.
Then he leaned in closer and whispered to Little Sparrow:
“Little Sparrow, do you want more Elixir Medicine, just like the one you just had?”
As Lin Jing leaned in, Little Sparrow instinctively tried to back away, but after hearing Lin Jing’s 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:
“So, Little Sparrow…”
“Finish this task today, and I will give you this pill.”
“Tomorrow, sneak over to my place and help me with something. Then, I will give you a few more pills like this one.”
“Do you want them?”
“Chirp…”
After hearing this, Little Sparrow chirped in response.
“Remember, don’t let Daoist Qing Ling discover you, or else you won’t be able to enjoy these Elixir Medicine…”
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 didn’t 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 Jing’s 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:
“Alright…”
“Everything that needs to be conveyed is written here.”
After speaking, Huang Qingling looked towards Lin Jing and Little Sparrow and said:
“Just now, when I was in the study, I heard Little Sparrow’s chirping. Have you figured things out with it?”
“Yes, we’ve figured it out…” Lin Jing nodded.
“That’s good…” replied Huang Qingling.
Lin Jing took the folded paper from Huang Qingling’s hand, rolled it into a cylinder, and then took out a piece of thin string to tie the bundle to Little Sparrow’s leg.
Only then were they truly prepared. “Alright, Little Sparrow, off you go…” Huang Qingling spoke to Little Sparrow.
“Chirp…”
Little Sparrow chirped in response, ready to take off, but Lin Jing stopped it.
“Little Sparrow, wait…
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:
“Lin Jing, have you forgotten anything else to tell Little Sparrow?” “No, it’s just that I suddenly thought of something fun…”
Then, Lin Jing said to Little Sparrow:
“Little 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.”
“Do you understand what I mean?”
Little Sparrow first nodded, and then looked towards Huang Qingling.
Huang Qingling pursed her lips:
“Lin Jing, you really are too naughty…”
Then, getting into the spirit of it, she said:
“How can I miss out on such fun?”
After saying that, Huang Qingling gave Little Sparrow some more instructions.
“Little Sparrow, remember not to be discovered in advance, go quietly, and give
Li Tangyu a good scare.”
“Chirp…”
Little Sparrow responded with a chirp.
“Alright, be on your way…”
As Huang Qingling’s 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..
