Early the next morning, Li Pu took Caocao and Bubbu to the East Gate.
Facing the obstruction from the Gatekeeper old lady, he pulled out the paperwork he had prepared overnight.
Although called paperwork, it was actually just a piece of paper.
On it was his application for the East Gate, with Li Fan's endorsement signature.
After being granted passage, Li Pu didn't leave immediately.
Instead, he had Caocao try to offer the earthworm skin it found yesterday as a gift to the tower eagle.
Because he thought earthworm = bug, tower eagle = bird.
It's known that bug skin = part of a bug, and birds love to eat bugs.
So = tower eagle loves to eat bug skin.
The result was, Caocao almost got slapped to death by a claw.
If it weren't for the fact that Caocao scratched its itch yesterday, the claw would have really come down.
Imagine, as the dignified guardian beast of the East Gate, when had it ever been humiliated with a piece of earthworm skin, not by a person, but by grass.
