"Brother Shen, don't be too polite. Have some food and rest early. The night is filled with the cries of ghosts and wolves outside. You might not be able to sleep." Wang Qiu reminded Shen Luo after he accepted.
"Okay."
Shen Luo responded straightforwardly, and his stomach growled in sync.
He took a pair of dark chopsticks from someone next to him with a sheepish smile, picked up a chunk of meat from the pot and brought it to his mouth. As he was about to bite, a cry from a wild beast was suddenly heard from outside.
Then, a chaotic noise came from outside the courtyard. Wang Qiu's expression changed slightly as he turned to look outside the door.
"Huh...."
A violent wind suddenly swept in, blowing the door open with a "crash" sound, and sparked a flurry of bonfire embers inside the house.
"What...what's going on?" Shen Luo covered the chunk of black meat, carefully put it in his sleeve, and then pretended to chew a few times. He asked in a panic.
