He Tiantian only relaxes her body and mind when she lies down to rest at night.
Today was incredibly tough! There are still many tough battles ahead, so she needs to be extra careful.
Physically exhausted but mentally agitated, He Tiantian couldn't sleep. She couldn't think of a reasonable way to get revenge on Qi Jianguo, nor did she know how to help Secretary Qi. Now, Secretary Qi and Qi Xiaoyan treated her very well; if someone else had been a village cadre, she might not have received such treatment.
While she was hesitating, He Tiantian suddenly remembered that she had another helper!
If you don't seek help from the Snake King now when you encounter difficulties, when will you?
She gave her blood to the Snake King free of charge, with the only request being to receive his protection, live peacefully for seven or eight years, and then go to university and leave.
He Tiantian sat up and scratched her left ankle a few times. After a while, she felt her ankle loosen up.
Just then, He Tiantian's vision suddenly brightened, as if it were daytime, and she saw the Snake King floating in the air. She asked in surprise and doubt, "Quickly, make it darker! What if Grandma Qi sees us if it's this bright?"
It's so bright; it's far beyond the brightness that a tiny kerosene lamp could provide.
"Don't worry, it's a barrier; you can't see it from the outside," the Snake King said smugly. Its things weren't those junk items. "What did you call me for? Is there something you need?"
“Of course there’s something going on. Someone in the village has reported on Secretary Qi. You know, I just built a good relationship with Secretary Qi’s family, and I don’t want to just watch him step down,” He Tiantian said. “Do you have a way of finding out who reported Secretary Qi? If you could also teach that person a lesson, that would be even better. I would be very grateful to you.”
When the Snake King heard He Tiantian's request, his eyes darted away, and he lost his former confidence, but he still stubbornly said, "This is a matter for you humans, and I will not interfere."
Humans are, after all, humans, and the human realm is, after all, the human realm, not the demon realm where he resides, where he can do whatever he wants!
He Tiantian was no longer the naive person she used to be. She noticed some clues from the Snake King's behavior and began to scheme. With a smile, she said, "Your Excellency Snake King, do you not want to help, or are you unable to help?"
At this moment, He Tiantian smiled like a cunning little fox.
The Snake King still wanted to put up a fight, but when he saw He Tiantian's smile, his arrogance vanished, and he said dejectedly, "This is the human realm, governed by the Heavenly Dao of the human realm. I am the king of the demon realm. If I abuse my magic power, the Heavenly Dao of the human realm will find out."
The human realm?
The Demon Realm?
The Way of Heaven?
Although He Tiantian didn't want to believe it, the existence of the Snake King in front of her proved it to be true, so she had no choice but to believe it.
I see!
However, He Tiantian was more concerned about what would happen after it was discovered, and asked, "What will happen if it's discovered?"
The Snake King knew that although He Tiantian acted like a little fox, she was actually a kind person at heart. Moreover, He Tiantian was its ally, so there was no need to hide anything from her. Therefore, it told her the truth: "If the Heavenly Dao of the Human Realm finds out, it will unleash the Nine Heavens Thunder. With my current magic power, I cannot resist it at all. Even if I am not struck to death, I will never be able to return to the Demon Realm."
He Tiantian was stunned. She originally thought that doing so would only weaken the Snake King, but she did not expect it to have such serious consequences.
In her past life, she was deceived and, due to her own cowardice, failed to cherish her family and hometown, and was forced to wander far from home. She knew the pain of longing, so she understood the Snake King's longing for the demon realm.
"Oh my god, since the consequences are so serious, you'd better hide well. I'll never ask you to do anything again, lest you be unable to return to the demon realm or go home. Otherwise, I'll never be able to eat or sleep properly for the rest of my life," He Tiantian said. She was human, with a lifespan of at most a hundred years, which would soon pass.
Dust to dust, ashes to ashes, and a new cycle begins.
However, the Snake King is a demon, and they come from the demon realm, where they have a very long lifespan.
She died, ending everything, but the Snake King was left to live a solitary life in the human world, unable to return to his homeland.
This is not something He Tiantian wants to see!
The Snake King helped He Tiantian, and she hopes that the Snake King can have a good ending, so He Tiantian will also do her best to help the Snake King.
"Although it can't deal with humans, but..." Upon hearing He Tiantian's words, the Snake King's hard and cold snake heart softened slightly. In fact, it wasn't that there was no way. After all, it was a Snake King with profound magical power; if it wanted to, it would have countless methods.
Although the Snake King didn't finish speaking, He Tiantian heard hope in his words.
"Snake King, but what? You're so powerful, you must have other ways, right?" He Tiantian's big eyes sparkled with hope, shining brightly.
"Ahem!" The Snake King coughed twice arrogantly and said with a smile, "Actually, it's not that there's no way. Although I can't directly deal with humans, I can monitor the entire village for you when I'm not cultivating, so you can know the actual situation and come up with a solution as soon as possible."
He Tiantian was stunned, her little mouth opened in surprise, revealing her white and sparkling teeth.
If that's the case, wouldn't she be like having an extra radar, able to know what the villagers are doing? She could know in advance if someone entered the village.
"Is it really possible?" He Tiantian asked, suppressing her excitement. Although she desperately needed the Snake King's help, she didn't want him to get hurt. "If it's bad for your health, you don't have to help me. Things haven't gotten to the worst yet, I can still manage for now."
“This won’t waste too much of my magic power; I can help you,” the Snake King said. “However, you must go to the cave five times a month. You know I like being in the water.”
"Okay, okay!" He Tiantian quickly agreed. She could go cut grass nearby so that the Snake King could go swimming.
The Snake King nodded in satisfaction and asked, "Is there anything else?"
He Tiantian shook her head, then suddenly nodded.
The Snake King looked at He Tiantian with disdain once again. She had been clever for a moment, but then she turned stupid again. He said impatiently, "You shake your head one minute and nod the next. Do you have anything else to say?"
It didn't want to be called out by this stupid woman again as soon as it got back inside.
Even entering and exiting requires magical power!
Upon hearing this, He Tiantian quickly said, "It's something, a little thing. You know, you've been on my ankle the whole time. If you don't get off my ankle, can we still talk? You can communicate with me freely, but if I want to find you, can I only do it by tickling my ankle?"
If there's no one else around, she can squat down and scratch her ankle without any hesitation. But what if there are other people around? Or what if the situation is urgent?
How could she quickly contact the Snake King?
