How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

"Indeed, just from his name, you can tell he's not a respectable person!"

Hei Yang nodded in agreement. Although he felt something was off, it didn't matter. What mattered was making chicken soup!

Cluck cluck!!!

Sensing the menacing killing intent, the rooster kicked its legs frantically. It was still young and hadn't even properly dated a rooster yet; it didn't want to die!

"Resistance? What's the use of resistance?"

Hongli wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth and looked at the spirit chicken with a longing look: "It's all because you're too delicious!"

Cluck cluck!!!

No, Sister Hong!

……

In the corner, the spirit chicken huddled in a ball, trembling, most of its feathers plucked out. Meanwhile, Hong Li, her head covered in feathers, menacingly approached it step by step: "Well, you've got some skills, huh? No wonder Hei Yang's mother chased you with a kitchen knife. But... hey, let's see where you run!"

Cluck cluck!!!

The rooster suddenly leaped into the clouds, narrowly avoiding Hong Li, but lost a handful of feathers in the process, a sight that saddened all who heard it and brought tears to their eyes.

"Ughhhh, can't you just stand there and wait to die?!"

Hong Li, her face contorted with rage, turned and roared, "Hei Yang, what are you standing there for? Come help me catch it!"

"Uh……"

Hei Yang stared blankly at the iron chain in his hand, tugged at it, shook it, and then looked up at the cliff top: "I was thinking, if the two of us work together and make this chain a little longer, maybe we could climb up there or something..."

"Ah this..."

Hongli brushed her hair aside, a thoughtful expression appearing on her face as well: "Perhaps, maybe, possibly, it might work?"

"Give me a break and show me some confidence!"

Hei Yang couldn't help but complain, "Don't use such an uncertain tone!"

"I think it's alright, but..."

Hong Li looked at Hei Yang.

"Ok?"

Hei Yang was puzzled.

"But your injuries are much more serious than mine..."

Hongli sighed: "After all, you were down there to catch me—I don't have anything to thank you for, it's just a division of labor, it's what you were supposed to do!"

I just wanted to say, are you sure you won't let me down at a crucial moment given your current disabled state?

Hongli stretched out her hands with a suspicious look, then held up two fingers on each hand and gestured up and down: "Look, if this is you, this is me..."

I am agile and swift, unstoppable, light as a swallow, and graceful as a startled swan!

You are old and decrepit, clumsy and indecisive, always dragging things down.

At the crucial moment, you yell: Oh no, I twisted my back! My old injury has flared up again!

Then I was filled with questions and my mouth was full of profanity.

Finally, "plop," "plop," we both fell to the ground, back to where the dream began.

"Your simulation is really intuitive!"

Hei Yang rolled his eyes: "Then what do you suggest we do?"

"What else can be done?"

Hong Li shrugged: "Let's spend some time healing and recovering. And that tiger, it's definitely at the ninth level of Body Tempering. It's such a big piece of meat, we can't take it with us, but we can't let it go to waste, can we?"

"That makes sense."

Hei Yang nodded: "But in that case, we really won't make it to the seventh day after the death of the deceased!"

"Get up! If you want to come back to life, go back yourself. I want to live!"

"Cluck cluck?"

The clever rooster peeked out from the corner and said, "If I eat that tiger, does that mean I won't eat it?"

"You are reserve grain!"

"Cluck..."

"I never imagined I'd be living like a savage one day..."

Hei Yang sighed: "Using melted snow as water, and being roasted for over twenty days, ugh..."

"Stop talking nonsense, I can't stay here for another second longer!"

Hong Li crossed her arms, her face grim: "At least we didn't waste this guy's life force. Your injuries are fully healed now, right? Hurry up and get out of here!"

"Speaking of this, I have to say something."

Hei Yang pointed at Hong Li's tiger-skin skirt: "Why are you hogging all the tiger skins? My clothes are all tattered too!"

"Ok?"

Hongli raised an eyebrow: "Could you please rephrase your words and think about what outrageous things you just said?"

"Ah, well..."

Hei Yang promptly backed down, looking at the bent red-tasseled spearhead tied to the end of the chain with some doubt: "Are you sure this thing can really hold on tight and won't fall off?"

"Trust me, okay?"

"walk slowly!"

……

"Are you ready?"

"I've brought everything I need, and that's about it."

"Very good, I'll count to three, two, one..."

"Then we all ran uphill..."
