Chapter 1531: Netherworld, Other Shore Flower 6
The bloodstains twisted ruggedly along the ground, exactly the path they had taken coming here.
The blood had been flowing for two hours; with so much blood lost, he actually still had a breath left.
This snake really has a big life.
She crouched down to look at where the Snake Man was most heavily injured.
It was the back of his head.
Like he’d knocked it against something.
She reached out and touched the cold blood.
She flipped the Snake Man over; his back was scraped until the skin was nearly worn off.
Covered in blood, it looked miserably tragic.
Little Red quietly loosened its grip.
Like it had done something wrong, it backed away a step.
Wanting to find a place to hide.
It searched for a long time and couldn’t find one.
Only then did it realize.
Before, whenever something happened, it only needed to hide behind Su Gu.
He would take care of everything.
Mm, but Su Gu was hibernating.
Only it was left now.
B–but how was it supposed to know this snake was so weak, so unable to withstand being dragged?
Its own skin never breaks, and it rarely bleeds.
Let alone getting knocked on a rock—even if it hit a steel blade, it wouldn’t bleed.
The experiences of being poked and wounded by some bad person back then were already long in the past.
The current Little Red, its hide is so thick even it can’t bite through it.
Mm, very powerful.
Su Yan had never saved a snake before.
So now, faced with this snake, she also didn’t quite know where to start.
How was she supposed to save him?
She opened her mouth to ask,
"Little Red, how do you save a snake?"
Her voice fell, and for a long time no one answered.
When she looked up, she saw Little Red there, wearing a conflicted expression as it played with its own tail, lost in its own world.
Su Yan called out,
"Little Red?"
Little Red raised its head and immediately said,
"I didn’t think he was this fragile, I didn’t mean for this to happen!!"
Its milky childish voice carried a hint of panic.
Su Yan watched it for a while.
Then she spoke,
"Do you feel you did something wrong this time?"
Little Red hesitated, then nodded.
"I should’ve gone easier on him."
If it were given another chance, it would hit lighter.
Su Yan said seriously,
"If you feel guilty, feel you did wrong, you should say you’re sorry."
Little Red was confused, then slowly said,
"I’m sorry."
After that, Little Red asked,
"Did I do something wrong?"
Su Yan shook her head.
"He’s an enemy, but I need to get some information out of his mouth.
So as long as he can breathe and talk, that’s enough.
In that case, you’re not wrong."
Hearing this, Little Red immediately flicked its beloved snake tail.
Mm, it wasn’t wrong.
Its happiness was written all over it.
At this moment, Xiao Hua inside the snake spoke up,
"Host, according to the data, a snake’s fatal spot is seven inches down.
So as long as that spot isn’t injured, given time, they have their own ways to self-heal."
Su Yan listened, then lowered her head to look at the snake again.
Xiao Hua was probably right.
After all, she didn’t know how to save snakes.
She could only listen to Xiao Hua.
So she set him down on the ground.
She leaned against a big tree, preparing to rest for a while.
Just then, a melodious zither melody drifted from afar.
The gentle music matched this night scene perfectly.
Listening to the music.
Little Red started to feel a bit sleepy.
Then it wiggled over and leaned against the big tree beside her.
After lying down for only a short while, it fell asleep.
Then Su Yan also closed her eyes.
The music continued.
From far to near.
Gradually, she didn’t know when the music had stopped.
A figure, draped in moonlight, strolled over.
Bright red robes, embroidered with low golden thread patterns, black golden silk boots on his feet.
His collar hung open, his clothes loose and slack.
As if, with one careless move, his clothes would slide right off.
It was a man.
Black hair like ink was tied back with a single Jade hairpin.
His stunningly handsome face appeared just like that before Su Yan.
