Chapter 216: Found

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Su Li went straight to the point. “Do you have a flashlight here? Lend it to me!”

A flashlight? What’s that!?

Glutinous Ball was a little dumbfounded by Su Li’s sudden words, but he definitely wouldn’t tell Su Li that he didn’t know. Hence, he pretended to be arrogant and said, “Why do you want a flashlight?”

Glutinous Ball desperately searched through his knowledge base. He had to figure out what a flashlight was. Glutinous Ball would never admit defeat.

Su Li said, “Riceball hasn’t returned home since it went out with me in the afternoon. I think it might have gotten lost and is going to find it now. Take out a flashlight and let me use it.”

When Glutinous Ball heard that Riceball was missing, his originally casual gaze immediately became energetic. He said excitedly, “You said that that fool is missing?

Su Li held her forehead helplessly when she saw his agitated expression. He had lost his little friend. Was there a need for him to be so agitated?

Glutinous Ball continued, “But it’s normal to lose that idiot. He looks silly and doesn’t know how to do anything other than eat. If he doesn’t get lost, who will? He might have been killed and eaten by someone now.”

The last time Su Li threw that fool in, it even snatched food from him. This was something he could not tolerate! Those things were not enough for him to eat to begin with, but in the end, she even let a dog snatch them from him. It was really too infuriating.

Seeing his gloating expression, Su Li shook her head and asked, “Do you have a flashlight or not? Think of a way to get one for me. It’s too dark outside!”

The darkness wasn’t the biggest problem. The biggest problem was that the place was a graveyard. Without a flashlight, she was really terrified.

Glutinous Ball felt a little guilty, but he was too embarrassed to say that he didn’t have that. He glanced at Su Li and said, “Isn’t there a moon outside? Can’t you just walk under the moonlight? It’s not like you can’t even see your fingers. How can you be so delicate!”

Su Li patted his head and said, “Cut the crap. Hurry up and find one for me.”

Glutinous Ball scratched its head. “A gentleman doesn’t fight. Why are you hitting me as you please? This isn’t good at all. You’re like a shrew!”

Su Li rolled her eyes. “I’m not a gentleman. I’m a woman. As the saying goes, only villains and women are difficult to raise. How can a broad-minded assistant like you not understand this? Or is it that you only have skin, but you actually don’t know anything!”

Glutinous Ball said angrily, “You’re insulting my intelligence. What don’t I know? I’m the smartest little assistant in the past five thousand years. Are you looking down on me?”

Su Li raised her eyebrows. “I didn’t mean that. It’s completely your imagination. If you’re so smart and powerful, quickly think of a way to find me something that I can use to light up the place.”

He didn’t have a flashlight, but he had something to illuminate the area!

Glutinous Ball said proudly, “Just you wait. I’ll go get it for you now.”

Glutinous Ball turned around and left. After a while, he brought over a round thing. However, from the looks of it, it was black and didn’t look like it was used for lighting!

Su Li pointed at the black ball and said, “You want me to use it as a light? Are you kidding me?”

Glutinous Ball said with an ignorant expression, “Then you don’t understand.

As long as you put your hand on the ball, it will glow like the sun.”

After saying that, Glutinous Ball placed its hand on the ball.

The ball immediately lit up when it sensed the temperature.

Su Li’s eyes widened when she saw the glowing ball. This thing was not bad. When it shone, the ball turned golden. No one would have thought that it was that black ball.

When Glutinous Ball saw Su Li’s expression, he raised his chin and said, “How is it? It’s better than your flashlight, right?”

Su Li thought that this thing was really not as good as her flashlight, but when she saw Glutinous Ball’s smug expression, she nodded and said, “Indeed, this is the first time I’ve seen this thing.”

Glutinous Ball became even more proud when it heard that. “Then why don’t you take a look at who took it out? I still have many treasures!”

Su Li said, “Give it to me first. We’ll come and see your treasure when we have time in the future.’

Glutinous Ball said generously, “Here, take it.”

Su Li took the ball and thanked Glutinous Ball. “Thank you!”

Glutinous Ball said, “If you really want to thank me, get me some Lingzhi to eat.”

Su Li was speechless.

He was really asking for an exorbitant exchange. Lingzhi? The Lingzhi she had painstakingly picked last time was eaten up by this guy in one bite!

“I’m leaving!” Su Li waved at Glutinous Ball and flashed out of the interspace.

Glutinous Ball looked at Su Li’s back and muttered to himself, “I hope that fool is fine!”

It wasn’t that he was worried about the idiot. It was just that the idiot was considered someone on his side no matter what. A smart person like him didn’t want his friend to be eaten like a vegetable.

After Su Li took the ball out, she walked straight towards the graveyard. There was an old saying that went, “When I get closer, the ghosts will retreat. As long as one’s not afraid of ghosts, ghosts will be afraid of her!”

The deeper they went into the graveyard, the gloomier it became. No wonder Li Mingyuan didn’t dare to come over.

“Riceball…” Su Li shouted in the direction of the graveyard.

Apart from the sound of the wind and the chirping of birds, there was no echo.

Su Li frowned and couldn’t help but wonder if Li Mingyuan was fooling her.

Some grave grass had already grown really tall. Su Li could only bypass those places and start searching.

“Riceball…”

A gust of wind blew, rustling the leaves.

How horrifying!

Su Li could not help but rub her arms.

The tomb in the distance looked like a person standing there, which whimpers from time to time, making Su Li increasingly terrified.

Forget it, she’d better go back!

She had just taken two steps when Su Li seemed to hear Riceball’s voice.

She called out in surprise, “Riceball, is that you?”

“Woof woof…” Riceball’s weak voice came from afar.

Su Li followed the direction of the voice.

The voice sounded very close, but she was actually still some distance away from the graveyard. Su Li sped up and soon saw a pit. She placed the ball in her hand in it and Riceball looked at Su Li pitifully.

Riceball was really here!

This pit was a little deep. No wonder Riceball couldn’t come out.

Su Li placed the ball aside and bent down to scoop Riceball up. Ever since it followed Su Li, Riceball’s weight had been increasing. Su Li almost couldn’t pick it up.

“Riceball, you have to train your body in the future. You have to be a fierce dog, don’t allow your dreams to be delayed by human delicacies.”

Riceball was speechless.

After Riceball was saved, it came up and complained to Su Li about its grievances.

Su Li tapped its head and said, “Why are you here for no reason?”

Riceball rubbed its head against Su Li. It was already so pitiful, yet she was still scolding it!

“Let’s go home,” Su Li said.

Riceball bit the corner of Su Li’s skirt and pulled her in the opposite direction..
