Following Ming Li's gaze, the system saw a corner of a skirt peeking out. It instinctively swallowed and then lunged forward, hugging Ming Li. "Host, little kids aren't tasty! How about we just forget it!"
Ming Li: "..." What kind of bizarre thought process is this?
Hearing this, the little girl hiding in the grass not far away visibly flinched. A flicker of fear appeared in her clear eyes.
Ming Li saw it, speechless, and looked down at the little red pig still clinging to her. She expressionlessly swatted it away.
The flying system: "..." Who am I? Where am I? What did I just experience?
Just as the system was in a daze, it heard its host's cool voice nearby, "This seat will have roast suckling pig tonight."
The system: "..." So, should it perform a self-roasting for everyone?
...
An hour later, Ming Li and the system sat by the campfire.
The system flipped the roast suckling pig on the grill, swallowing its saliva.
"Host, it's ready! We can start eating!"
Saying this, the system excitedly produced a set of jade tableware.
After placing them in front of Ming Li, the system began cutting the meat with a small knife.
"Host, it's so tempting..."
Ming Li: "..."
After calmly taking a bite of the roast meat on her plate, she glanced indifferently at a certain patch of grass not far away.
Seeing this, the system asked, "Host, do you want to share some of the roast meat with that child?"
Ming Li: "This seat does not like children."
"Alright."
The system finished, pulled off a pig's leg, and walked towards the little girl in the grass.
The little girl watched as a cute-looking little red pig holding a golden-brown roasted pig leg walked towards her. She instinctively took two steps back, clearly startled by the scene. A little pig eating a little pig? What kind of development was this?!
Ignoring the shock on the little girl's face, the system handed her the pig leg. "Here, eat it."
The little girl: "..."
Seeing that the little girl remained silent, the system paused and said, "Um... right, my master doesn't eat children."
The little girl: "..."
The night passed quickly.
The next day arrived soon.
Ming Li slowly opened her eyes and met a pair of clear eyes.
At this moment, the little girl was kneeling cautiously beside Ming Li, holding a bowl of water in her hands. Seeing Ming Li's eyes open, the little girl instinctively flinched and quickly lowered her head, afraid to meet Ming Li's gaze.
Ming Li: "..." What is this little brat doing here so early in the morning? Trying to scare her to death and inherit her system?
As Ming Li's inner thoughts went wild, the little girl quickly handed the bowl to Ming Li. "Immortal... Immortal sister, please... please drink the dew." As if afraid Ming Li would dislike it, the little girl quickly added, "I just collected this, it's very fresh!"
Ming Li: "..."
Meeting the little girl's expectant gaze, Ming Li's mouth twitched. She took the bowl of dew and took a sip.
...
After that, the little girl became Ming Li's shadow.
A day later, the two arrived at a small town, where they heard that a prince had come looking for a wife with a crystal slipper...
