Chapter 73 Immortal Delivering Rice

"Bang, bang, bang," as usual, Mrs. Lai was outside, knocking on the door to wake her son and granddaughters for work.

Ye Shiqi, hearing her father and three elder sisters getting up beside her, felt relieved that they had narrowly avoided revealing their secret due to lack of time.

Awakened by the knocking, Hongji opened his bleary eyes to see the pitch-black room. Accustomed to his mother's routine, he sensed there was something more on the table in addition to the oil lamp. When he lit the lamp, he found five wooden pieces carved with the Bodhisattva's image and two pieces resembling little black and white pandas.

The wooden animal toys he had placed on the table yesterday, already carved, had vanished without a trace.

Hongji didn't think much of it and wrapped the wooden pieces in another garment, urging the children to wear more clothes in the morning to avoid catching a cold. Then he opened the door and stepped out to begin another day's work.
