Chapter 24: The Snake King Coaxes His Daughter-in-law
Miao Yi looked a little haggard, his eyes were black and blue, it was obvious that he hadn't rested all night.
If it were yesterday, when Hua Yuqi came back, he would definitely take the initiative to help her. However, after Hua Yuqi landed, he didn't respond at all.
There was no accident after that, Hua Yuqi fell to the ground after standing for only a few seconds.
He was tall, and the movement of falling to the ground was not small, but even so, the people by the fire still did not respond at all.
Hua Yuqi was a little apprehensive, is my brother angry with him?Angry that he "disappeared" for a day and a night for no reason?
"Miao Miao?"
The voice was still hoarse, with a faint hint of flattery.
Miao Yi's gaze finally turned to him, but the next second he stood up without saying a word and strode out.
Although they only looked at each other for a moment, the indifference in those amber eyes made Hua Yuqi flustered.
"Where are you going, Miao Miao?" He wanted to stand up, but he was powerless, and fell to the ground again with a "click".
Looking at Miao Yi again, he still showed no signs of stopping.
Hua Yuqi panicked even more, quickly waved out the silver belt, and landed directly in front of him, "Miao Miao..."
As soon as the words fell, because he was too impatient, he fell down again.
Seeing this, Miao Yi moved slightly with his hands hanging by his side, but he held back in the end, pursed his lips and said nothing.
But anyway, did not continue to go.
Hua Yuqi looked up at him, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to leave for so long, I just... I just..."
The man's long hair probably wasn't tied tightly, it had been loosened when he fell just now, and the anxious expression on his face gave people an inexplicable feeling of being valued.
Miao Yi's eyes flickered slightly, and his face was expressionless: "Just what?"
just what?Hua Yuqi was at a loss for words for a while.
He went out yesterday to get something to eat before the other party woke up, but he didn't expect to meet Hong Ling.
After driving Hongling away, his brain turned into the appearance of a child, and then... ran out because of the taste...
How should I tell my brother about these things?
Hua Yuqi was a little dumbfounded for a moment.
Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Miao Yi's already relaxed expression turned cold again in an instant, "Can't tell?" He lifted his foot and was about to leave.
"Here you are!" Hua Yuqi panicked, and directly took out the holy fruit that the elder asked for and stuffed it into his hand.
The holy fruit is about the size of a baby's fist, and the skin is light golden. Under the sunlight, some obscure lines can be seen, and there are faint golden threads flowing between the lines. The whole has a mysterious atmosphere. It doesn't look like a fruit, but like an unknown treasure.
"What is this?" Miao Yi paused, he had never seen this kind of fruit.
"Holy fruit." Hua Yuqi blurted out.
Miao Yi frowned, "Holy fruit?"
Hua Yuqi's eyelids twitched, facing the other party's probing gaze, he nodded bravely, "Yes, Shengguo."
Miao Yi took the holy fruit and looked at it carefully, and suddenly felt blessed, "Is this from those snakes?"
Hua Yuqi's pupils trembled slightly, brother...how did he know?
"I……"
Miao Yi squatted in front of him, "You didn't come back all day and night because you went to get this holy fruit?"
Hua Yuqi: "...Huh?"
The cold expression on Miao Yi's face gradually faded, "Does this sacred fruit have any miraculous effect?"
"Yes... yes," Hua Yuqi was still a little dazed, "it can cure all diseases, including injuries."
"Huh?" Miao Yi raised his eyebrows.
Hua Yuqi woke up suddenly, "I heard about it."
He pointed to his hand, "Your hand is hurt, you eat."
Hearing this, Miao Yi's face became weird at a speed visible to the naked eye, "You...you took this sacred fruit for me?"
Hua Yuqi nodded: "After you eat this holy fruit, it can not only heal injuries, but also make you invulnerable to all poisons."
After a pause, he thought of something, and quickly added: "I've heard the elders say these things."
Miao Yi stared at him straight.
The man has a pair of dark eyes. When the two eyes meet, those eyes are as deep as a cold pool, as if the whole world contains only one you, deep and affectionate.
"Pound... Pound..."
Miao Yi's heartbeat began to accelerate uncontrollably.
Damn, this man...
He silently clenched his fists, this man is hard to guard against...
"Miao Miao?"
Miao Yi took a deep breath and slowed down her heartbeat, "Why are you being so nice to me?"
Hua Yuqi didn't even think about it, "We are friends."
Miao Yi stared straight into his eyes, "Just friends?"
Hua Yuqi was slightly taken aback.
What... what do you mean?
"Forget it." Miao Yi suddenly didn't want to hear his answer, helped him to sit aside, and then returned the sacred fruit to him, "This thing is too precious, I can't take it."
Hua Yuqi was a little confused, "This is specially for you."
Miao Yi looked down at his legs, "I just scratched the skin slightly, you need it more than me."
"I...my leg is in a special condition, even if I eat the holy fruit, it won't help."
"You have eaten?"
Hua Yuqi paused, "I've eaten it." If anyone in the holy snake clan ate the most holy fruit, it would be him.
Seeing that the other party was still hesitating, he took out the other two from his arms, "Look, I still have these."
Miao Yi raised her eyebrows slightly.
Hua Yuqi urged him, "Eat quickly."
Miao Yi is not a mother-in-law, since there is not only one, he didn't have so many worries, so he simply took a bite.
The flesh of the holy fruit is bright red, with a sweet taste and a little sour taste, which is not much different from the taste of ordinary fruits. He finished it in just two or three mouthfuls.
Hua Yuqi stared at the little juice overflowing from his lips, swallowed secretly, and took the other two back into his arms, "The holy fruit is different from ordinary fruits, ordinary people can't eat more."
Miao Yi didn't feel any strange changes in his body after eating, and the corner of his mouth slightly hooked.
You idiot, you don't even know you've been cheated.
He licked his lips, and suddenly stretched out his hand to brush Hua Yuqi's hair hanging in front of him, his voice was a little low, "You give me the holy fruit, then I..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw that the other party took out another object from his arms and offered it to him like a treasure, "This is for you."
Miao also drooped her eyes.
On the man's hand was a silver scale two palms wide.
The surface of the scales is smooth, with silver streamers shining all over the body, and a faint blue-purple color can be faintly seen under the sunlight, which looks extraordinarily delicate and beautiful.
Miao Yi was surprised, "Is this the scale of the Snake King?"
Although he only glanced at that big guy that day, the silver body of the other party was so dazzling that it was hard not to notice it.
Moreover, this valley is the territory of the Snake King.
Hua Yuqi didn't expect him to recognize it at a glance, and suddenly felt a little guilty, "You... how do you know?"
Miao Yi's expression suddenly became extremely serious, "How did you get these scales?"
Hua Yuqi paused, how did he come here?Of course it was pulled from him, but this kind of words obviously cannot be said directly...
"I picked it up."?
