Chapter 1838: Barrier Brother, Ten More Tables!
The little girl in the Glazed Skirt swept the delicacies off the table clean, and Little Taotie outside the barrier did the same, scooping all the food on the table into her small tummy.
Little Taotie licked her lips, feeling unsatisfied, clearly aware that this was a dream, yet the food within the dream seemed to bring her the same comforting satiety.
The barrier rippled, subtitles appeared: Are you full?
"If I’m not full, is there more?"
Subtitles: There can be.
Little Taotie’s eyes sparkled brightly as she waved her hand: "Barrier Brother, bring ten more tables!"
Subtitles slowly appeared with six dots.
Little Taotie was slightly disappointed, her childish voice turned sorrowful: "Can’t do it?"
Subtitles: Wait.
Little Taotie rested her chin, obediently waiting.
Within ten breaths, ten tables appeared from thin air, one after another, delicious dishes descended from the heavens.
Not only were there the delicacies prepared by the Lion Tribe inside the barrier, but also those Little Taotie had never seen before, like a peach as big as a large plate, a sculpture-like exquisite melon, and transparent steamed buns the size of a fist emitting warmth...
Little Taotie blinked her big eyes: "Are they all for me to eat?"
Subtitles: I stole them, go ahead and eat.
Little Taotie: "...Stolen? If I eat them, will I be an accomplice?"
Subtitles: Just kidding, go ahead and eat.
Little Taotie hesitated, but the scent of the giant peach wafted into her nose, her little feet were already wandering towards the aroma.
"...Then I won’t hold back!"
Unable to resist the temptation, Little Taotie pounced towards the giant peach.
From afar, it seemed as large as a plate, but upon getting closer, it was almost as tall as Little Taotie when seated!
With arms wide open, Little Taotie embraced the giant peach yet couldn’t encircle it, "Ah woo!" She opened her mouth wide and took a big bite, peach juice splashed onto her little cheeks, but she couldn’t bother wiping it as her cheeks bulged, chewing away, mouthful of peach juice, the sweet and fragrant taste filled her mouth, peach juice slid down the throat, stomach warming, as if a warm current flowed into her stomach.
Little Taotie sighed in satisfaction: "So delicious!"
This was the juiciest peach she had ever eaten, somewhat like top-grade peaches with more juice than regular peaches. Regular peaches have a slightly fibrous texture, while this peach felt more like those canned yellow peaches, resembling jelly, or frozen pears, sweetly moist to the lungs.
Impatiently, Little Taotie took another bite, her small nose splashed with juice, she wriggled her nose, her cheeks moved, completely immersed in the delicious taste, ignoring everything else.
One bite, then another.
Her little face was already glistening and moist, not bothering to wipe it, her little face buried into the peach.
As if in a marvelous battle, finally, she finished the whole giant peach, the peach seed was large, surprisingly with strange and peculiar script-like patterns, resembling Sanskrit and talisman script, erratic and chaotic.
Originally thinking her appetite was immense enough to devour ten tables of food, but after consuming the peach, Little Taotie surprisingly felt her stomach was full!
It was like eating a hundred Evil Spirit Chocolates, the satiety was intoxicatingly satisfying.
"Barrier Brother, I’m full, can I pack some to take away?"
Subtitles: Cannot.
"Will I be able to enter the dream again to find you, and will you invite me for a meal?"
Subtitles slowly displayed six dots.
"Can’t anymore..." Little Taotie’s excited little face visibly dropped into disappointment, her small eyes looked forlorn, eyebrows curved sadly, slightly aggrieved, quite upset, filled with loss.
Subtitles: ...Maybe.
"Maybe?" Little Taotie tilted her head, unable to understand, eyes full of confusion: "Barrier Brother can’t decide either?"
Subtitles: Everything follows fate.
"Fate?" Little Taotie pursed her lips, muttering: "What on earth is fate?"
Uncle Monk also said: When fate comes, we shall meet.
But when does fate arrive?
If only fate could be controlled! Then I could see Uncle Monk whenever I wanted, and seek Barrier Brother for feeding too!
Subtitles: Unknown.
"Barrier Brother doesn’t know what fate is either, then why say follow fate? I think fate is like an adult’s excuse, when facing difficulties, everything is attributed to fate, letting fate take the burden! Fate, so pitiful!"
Subtitles: In the midst of the divine, free arrangements.
Little Taotie tilted her head, eyes full of innocence, little voice softly: "Then who makes the arrangements? Can I negotiate with them?"
Subtitles: Unknown.
Little Taotie sighed with an air of maturity: "What does Barrier Brother know after all?"
Subtitles: Past, present, future.
Little Taotie’s eyes brightened, her little voice curious: "Barrier Brother, in the future, can I meet the War God? I often dream of him, really want to see the War God without his helmet!"
