Picked Up A Small Cannon Fodder Chapter 13


Jiang Mu on the other side was uncomfortably anxious because of the phone call from Feng Guodong. He still didn't know when he had offended the other party. On this side they had already started eating happily.


The old man and Feng Tingyun went up to look at Little LaBa. He was sleeping peacefully, and they were finally relieved after they checked that there weren't any scratches on his body.


The atmosphere at the dinner table was very harmonious. Jiang Fang was not as reserved as they imagined.


Feng Shixia's mood gradually improved too. He sat next to Jiang Fang and egged, "Play a round later?"


Children always sleep for a while and then wake up right after. Wei Xue originally thought that Little LaBa would sleep until midnight, but he was awakened by the urge to pee.


He was surrounded by his stuffed animals, Little LaBa's feet pushed them away.


He was surprised to find that he was able to split his legs, his little feet turned flexibly around and were caught by him, Little LaBa soothed them, "You have to... be obedient!"


These feet, they always have their own ideas, even Little LaBa couldn't control them.


This made Baby very worried.


Since it was not the first time he got out of bed by himself, the baby was very experienced now.


He first threw the foot supporter down, then all his little stuffed animals fell to the ground one by one, and lastly it was Baby's turn to go down.


Jiang Fang witnessed this scene when he opened the door, the little baby with his butt sticking up to get out of bed.


His feet turned around to test the distance of his toys, but this time they were not stacked together, they were all spread on the floor. The little baby just hanged there, unable to either go down or up.


"Save...life." Little LaBa stammered in fright, "Save me, help, save life."


Jiang Fang rushed forward and rescued the stucked baby.


The little baby smiled shyly.


"What do you want to do getting out of bed?"


Little LaBa suddenly remembered that he still had a proper business to do. He raised his head and looked at Jiang Fang, "I want to...pee."


Just when Jiang Fang didn't know what to do, Feng Shixia came up, everyone had finished eating. The entire family was checking the list of guests, Little LaBa stomped his feet anxiously, "Pee, pee!"


Feng Shixia bent over and picked him up, then said to Jiang Fang, "You wait for me a bit."


Although Feng Shixia was taking the little baby to the toilet for the first time, everything went smoothly, he didn't pee in his pants.


After Little LaBa solved his biological needs, he sighed. When he returned to the bedroom, Jiang Fang had already turned on the computer. There was a desktop computer in the room, and Feng Shixia's laptop was also placed in the room by the aunt.


Feng Shixia quickly put Little LaBa on the bed, "Should we call Autumn Sauce too?"


Jiang Fang thought for a while, "Anything is fine."


The two older brothers were in front of him. Little LaBa was very happy, he wanted to play with older brothers, but they were all staring at the big shiny square, and they didn't even spare a glance at him.


Little LaBa was lying on the bed depressed, with his feet held super high.


But even such difficult movements did not attract their attention.


Humpf! Little LaBa was very angry.


He wanted to see what was so good about this big square.


Little LaBa's head sneaked over, Feng Shixia was sitting cross-legged on his bed, Little LaBa's head rested on his lap just enough to see the screen on the computer.


Feng Shixia called Autumn Sauce, the summer vacation was about to come so the game launched a new task.


[Prince’s homework]


This game is rather kitsch. The background of the game was set at the stage when the prince of the previous dynasty was sent out of the palace for adoption. Master gave him a year of homework.


But his books were stolen by the evil spirits, and the players had to retrieve these books.


The mission lasts for fifteen days, after the completion, a limited fashion will be dropped.


Feng Shixia formed a team as the captain, Jiang Fang and Autumn Sauce joined the team at the same time.


[Autumn Sauce: Still short of two people, I go to the world to call.】


[X: Fight with three people.】


[Autumn Sauce: It's too difficult...]


[No moist wind this summer: God X alone can do the work of three.】


Jiang Fang, who was sitting at the table in front, looked back at Feng Shixia. Feng Shixia smiled at him. Jiang Fang turned around, good, his worth had increased.


Today's task is to go to Cheng Nan's Wolf spirit to retrieve the little prince's writing brush.


Feng Shixia frowned, "This wolf spirit even snatches writing brushes? So kitsch?"


Cheng Nan's Wolf demon cave was hidden, so they had to go to Wang Xiaoer's house, which sells sesame seed cake.


Wang Xiaoer recently married a new bride, on the second day of the marriage the bride ran away. Wang Xiaoer who went to the mountain to suicide, met the Wolf spirit. That scared the shit out of him and he came back home.


The three people first arrived at Wang Xiaoer's home, Wang Xiaoer's mother was standing at the door sighing.


[Wang Xiaoer's mother: How did our family encounter such a thing?】


Jiang Fang got down from his horse, Wang Xiaoer's mother looked at him with doubt.


[Wang Xiaoer's mother: Young Warrior?  Where are you from? Have you seen my daughter-in-law?] [X: Is Wang Xiaoer at home?】


Wang Xiaoer's mother sobbed.


[Wang Xiaoer's mother: My son is so pitiful he just got married, and now he has fallen ill and can't get up. Sesame seed cakes can't be made, at home there is also a shortage of food.]

[Wang Xiaoer's mother: Young Warrior, can you help this old lady go to Lao Litou in Chen Xi to buy a bag of flour?]

This was probably NPC's task. Feng Shixia suddenly felt wanting to go to the toilet, he gave the control to Jiang Fang, he hurriedly clicked the follow button, and he himself ran to the bathroom.


The computer was just lying on the bed, Little LaBa was staring at it intently.


The white one is the older brother in the game, there's also a black one and a yellow one.


Little LaBa was sucking his fingers. Jiang Fang had time to take a look even while he was doing the task. He looked at Little LaBa a little disgusted, "Don't eat your hands, dirty."


Little LaBa subconsciously hid his hand under his butt, and even rubbed the saliva on his hand, "Didn't eat, didn't eat."


Seeing his attitude of "guilty person gives himself away by conspicuously protesting his innocence", Jiang Fang couldn't help but pursue his mouth. He put his hand to search in the pocket and took out a cheese stick. "If you want to bite something, you can eat this."


Jiang Fang thoughtfully tore open the package for Little LaBa. Little LaBa first sniffed, then licked it carefully, his eyes lit up, "It's delicious."


Jiang Fang's hands itched, and he couldn't help but pat his head, "Eat it."


In the game, Autumn Sauce was about to freak out.


[Autumn Sauce: God X spare people, Old Li's head is about to be hit to death by you!] Drawing horse rein in front of a good Old Li, two horse hooves raised high under Jiang Fang's control fell to one side. Old Li, who was almost trampled to death by Jiang Fang, was calm as still water.


[Old Li: first-class white noodles, first-class white noodles!】


Jiang Fang clicked Buy, but found that it was not using money to buy white flour, but a hairpin.


Old Li was blushing on his face


[Old Li: I thought I had a promise with Cuicui when I was young. When I became rich, I would marry her, but then she married as a mistress. The money I saved was only enough to buy a hairpin for her as a wedding gift. She didn't accept the hairpin. I kept it carefully for many years, but the hairpin was gone a few days ago. If the young warrior is interested, please help me find it.] [Current task: Old Li’s hairpin】


Old Li traveled many places, Autumn Sauce was in a predicament.


[Autumn Sauce: Where do we search for it now?]


Crack crack, it's the sound of Little LaBa biting the cheese stick.


Jiang Fang was a little distracted, [X: Let's go to the Stone Arch Bridge first.]


Old Li's head was hit by a running child here. Horse hooves made clashing sounds, and Little LaBa looked curiously at the scenery on the screen.


His chubby hand poked around, and the Wudang dressed in white in the game was as if he went crazy.


There were some words that Autumn Sauce didn't know if it is proper or not to say.


Jiang Fang called Little LaBa's name, and Little LaBa rose into the sky and was held in Jiang Fang's arms. Jiang Fang lowered his head, and the two of them, big eyes vs small eyes stared at each other, "Be good."


Little LaBa blinked, Baby is very well behaved.


Autumn Sauce was still laughing at the behavior of Brother Moist Wind just now, Jiang Fang explained, [X: Moist Wind went to the toilet, the one just now was his young brother.]  Autumn Sauce was full of question marks, [Autumn Sauce: How did you know?]


[Fuck, it couldn't be that you guys met each other in person behind my back, right?]


Autumn Sauce felt that he had unintentionally discovered a big secret. Jiang Fang did not answer and continued looking for the hairpin.


In the end, they found the hairpin under Old Li's bed and exchanged it for a bag of white flour.


With the white flour, Wang Xiaoer's mother happily went to make sesame seed cakes, and Jiang Fang finally met Wang Xiaoer.


However, Wang Xiaoer oddly said that the most terrifying thing is not the wolf spirit, but the people around him.


While Jiang Fang and Autumn Sauce were still wondering what this sentence meant, Wang Xiaoer's mother, Old Li and the villagers all came in, everyone with weapons in their hands with ill intent.


It turned out that there was indeed a wolf spirit behind the mountain, but in the beginning he was the patron saint of the village. In order to get rich, the people in the village asked wolf hairs to make writing brushes. A writing brush made from the Wolf spirit's hair was first-class. Everyone made a fortune and became more and more greedy.


They repeatedly begged the wolf spirit for fur. In the end, the Wolf spirit was annoyed by their greed and was no longer willing to help the villagers or shelter the village.


The villagers had lost the opportunity to make a fortune again, but the glory of that year had been passed down from generation to generation. Old people said it's good if only they could still make wringing brush.


Cui Cui, whom Old Li Tau liked when he was young, was Wang Xiaoer's mother. Because he had no money, Wang Xiaoer's mother was married to someone else. After the death of her husband, Wang Xiaoer's mother always remembered what happened when she was young, it was all because of poverty that prevented their lovers from getting married.


And thinking, thinking, she went into madness. If the wolf spirit was still willing to help them, if writing brush could still be sold, it would be fine. Wang Xiaoer's mother seemed blinded by money all of a sudden, how to make the Wolf spirit help them again? Wang Xiaoer’s mother was not the only one who wanted to make a fortune. The villagers were looking for ways to pray for the Wolf spirit to forgive and contribute to the village again. At this time, Wang Xiaoer’s mother took the initiative to propose to sacrifice the bride to the Wolf spirit to pray for a long-term blessing.


Wang Xiaoer's wife did not run away, but was gifted to the Wolf spirit by his mother.


Wang Xiaoer accidentally discovered this scene when he went to the back of the mountain. The villagers were using his bride for a sacrifice and witnessed an outrageous scene. Wang Xiaoer fell bedridden. In order to prevent the villagers from knowing that he had discovered their secrets, Wang Xiaoer lied that he had accidentally run into the Wolf spirit and became ill from fright.


But Jiang Fang and co. just had to come, and just after coming they were here to inquire about the Wolf spirit. The young warriors who came from afar were regarded by the villagers as nosy people. They were afraid that the secrets of the village would be exposed, so they wanted to get rid of Jiang Fang and his party.


Feng Shixia seemed to have fallen into the toilet, he has not come out so far. Jiang Fang and Autumn Sauce, two people versus a group.


Fortunately, they were just a group of small potatoes. After finishing them, there was not much time left for the task.


Under the guidance of Wang Xiaoer, they came to the back mountain and saw the Wolf spirit.


And the Wolf spirit... he was already bald.


[Wolf spirit: Are you in a group with them?  】


The Wolf spirit didn't listen to explanations at all, he began to fight as soon as they came up. Autumn Sauce just avoided blows, while Jiang Fang was the main attacker, and Autumn Sauce timely added blood for him.


The rock in the cave became the focus of Jiang Fang's avoidance point. The huge Wolf spirit rushed forward. Little LaBa who was facing the computer widened his eyes in surprise, he burrowed into Jiang Fang's arms in fright.


Jiang Fang's movements were restricted, momentarily caught off guard, half of his blood bars were knocked out. He was killed by the Wolf spirit before Autumn Sauce had time to add him blood.


Jiang Fang took the blood-returning pill, Little LaBa was clasped by his arm.


Still had the last two minutes, Jiang Fang gave up the defense and went into close combat, the Wolf spirit crashed to the ground.


After a golden light passed, a writing brush was collected into the warehouse. The panel above presented like this [Souvenir used by the Wolf spirit to remembrance the days of full head of healthy and glossy hair].


Jiang Fang twitches the corners of his mouth. This Wolf spirit was quite miserable, and he couldn't help but roast the plot again.


Little LaBa in his arms, who couldn't escape, looked at Jiang Fang with tears in his eyes. He rubbed his hands together, "Beggy, beg you."


"There's baddy, Baby has to run."
