Chapter 314 Trapped
Not long after, Qing Jian prepared a few dishes.
Qin Yi sat down and dug in heartily.
Qing Jian hesitated for a while before asking, "Why are you back again?"
Qin Yi rolled his eyes, "Your master and Xuanwu are tracking me like hunting dogs. If I didn’t come back, I’d be caught by those two."
Qing Jian’s mouth twitched. He had followed his master for over twenty years and had never seen anyone as daring as Qin Yi, daring to call him an old man and an old dog so casually.
However, Qing Jian was shocked in his heart, "You actually managed to escape from my master and the Guardian God Xuanwu’s clutch?"
Qin Yi smiled smugly, "Have you ever seen a donkey grinding grain?"
Qing Jian looked completely confused.
Qin Yi explained, "Donkeys are lazy and cunning! When you ask it to grind grain, it’ll work hard when the owner is around. But when the owner isn’t, it’ll slack off."
"So, smart owners hang a carrot in front of the donkey, but just out of reach. If the donkey wants to eat, it’ll keep chasing the carrot, thus naturally moving the grindstone. Understand what I mean?"
