Shen Jingyuan cut off the last piece of rabbit meat with a knife, handed it to his mouth without hesitation, put it in his mouth, chewed it a few times and swallowed it.
The alarm from the unfinished mission was still ringing diligently, as if reminding Ning Wan: There is still time, don't give up.
Ning Wan ignored it and just stood aside, looking at the rabbit demon that was eaten until only its head was left. Her eyes became a little dazed.
A scene suddenly emerged in my mind:
A skinned rabbit skeleton with a round bald head came hopping towards him, with its furless mouth open and a mouthful of large front teeth yellowed by charcoal fire bared, and it thanked him.
Maybe even bow to yourself a few times...
Well, actually, it’s not necessary to save this rabbit demon.
Shen Jingyuan looked at the rabbit, which was only a skeleton left, and glanced at Ning Wan, who was leaning against the bamboo with no energy, and did not miss her lifeless eyes.
He deftly removed the skeleton from the bamboo and threw it, along with the blood-stained fur next to it, into the almost extinguished charcoal pit in front of him.
After filling it with a little soil, he stepped on it twice to compact it.
After the traces of the roasted rabbit completely disappeared, Shen Jingyuan clapped his hands, picked up the peach wood sword beside him, and prepared to leave.
[Task countdown: There are five minutes left until the task is completed. Please hurry up and complete the task.]
Ning Wan only felt a dull pain in her heart.
She could already imagine the scene in front of her, Shen Jingyuan seeing her turn into a tree and draw his sword.
I even vaguely felt that my legs were rooted and I couldn't even move back a little bit.
She was afraid that her true form would be revealed soon.
Looking at the rabbit whose body was still warm after being buried in the soil, Ning Wan tentatively moved his right foot again, slightly sideways, and made a posture ready to run at any time.
But before she could fully prepare herself,
A numbness quickly spread from the ankle to the entire calf, and even showed signs of moving up to the thigh.
After a stumble, Ning Wan held onto the bamboo behind him, and his other hand uncontrollably covered his numb right knee to steady his body.
This is really not the right time for my feet to go numb.
Ning Wan tried to lift her feet slightly, and in just a moment, the expression on her face instantly became colorful.
He glanced back at the road he came from.
I don’t know how knowledgeable the male protagonist is, but has he ever seen a tree with legs that can run?
The kind with numb feet, disabled body but strong will, and the kind that can bear peaches.
Ning Wan secretly made a decision, determined that if Shen Jingyuan didn't care about the old relationship with those peaches, she would run away.
Shen Jingyuan thought of the rabbit demon that he had completely wiped out, and then looked at Ning Wan, who was so sad that she couldn't stand up straight or speak.
Her slender and weak fingers tightly grasped the bamboo trunk, and the blue veins on the back of her hand were enough to prove that she was really trying her best to suppress the sadness in her heart.
Shen Jingyuan only felt that the peach wood sword in his hand suddenly trembled.
Although it was only a moment, Shen Jingyuan still caught it.
Shen Jingyuan frowned.
There were rabbits on both sides that had become spirits, and they were all white, just a little smaller. She probably couldn't see them.
Shen Jingyuan's gaze returned to Ning Wan once again, while Ning Wan tilted her head, slightly covering her face, planning how to escape the scene as quickly as possible.
But Shen Jingyuan's gaze was too obvious.
Ning Wan could clearly sense that the gaze had not moved away from her, but was instead moving further downwards.
Ning Wan moved her toes and looked at the one-minute countdown on the task board.
No way, the task hasn’t been completed and the deadline has been advanced.
Just when Ning Wan was about to escape at the speed of a 100-meter sprint.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Shen Jingyuan pick up a brocade bag from his waist, open it, and put his hand inside.
Then pull it out and throw it.
After completing the entire action, Shen Jingyuan turned around without saying a word.
Shen Jingyuan threw it at Ning Wan on purpose, so Ning Wan subconsciously caught it, and her body leaned forward slightly.
As Ning Wan changed her steps, she noticed that the numbness in her right foot had suddenly disappeared.
But Ning Wan didn't have the energy to think about the reason at this moment. She didn't dare to lower her head. She held the thing in her arms with one hand and touched it tentatively with the other hand.
Fluffy, smooth, and warm.
Hmm... is there still a heartbeat?
The next second, she lowered her eyes and saw two palm-sized rabbits with white and shiny fur curled up in a small ball in her arms, their ears still moving, as if they had been frightened by something and had not yet completely calmed down.
At the same time, electronic music appeared again.
[The mission to save the rabbit demon from Shen Jingyuan has been completed. Mission rewards:
Points: 130 (accumulated)
Skills acquired: Tea Talk. (Language is a learning process, especially when asking for help.)
Ning Wan looked at the rabbit in her hand in disbelief, and glanced at the small mound of earth just now.
After going back and forth several times.
Are you...seriously?
After all this time, the rabbit demon he wanted to save was not the one that was roasted, but the one in his arms now?
No wonder the mission countdown continues.
Ning Wan originally wanted to hug the rabbit and give it a kiss, but thinking of her mission, Ning Wan changed the way to express her joy.
It shouldn't be too much to stroke its fur a little.
Xiao Qi was also stunned.
The first time he saw the roasted rabbit, Xiao Qi confirmed that the roasted rabbit was a rabbit demon.
Even the rabbit demon's demon pill was found on the male protagonist's body.
Everything is taken for granted.
At least before the male protagonist took out the magic bag, it did not find any traces of other rabbit monsters nearby.
Xiao Qi thought about the mistake just now. Although he couldn't believe it, it seemed that the person who issued the task was more capable of finding loopholes than him.
Ning Wan was stunned for only a moment, then quickly reacted. Looking at the small mound, she muttered: You really can't blame me. I wanted to save you too, but you matured too quickly.
Next time, next time I will definitely run faster.
Every wrong has its perpetrator, if you really have a grudge, don't come to me.
You can’t blame Ning Wan for being superstitious. After all, if someone can become a spirit, then nothing is impossible.
But when Ning Wan calmed down and saw her mission reward, she became very curious about how to use this skill called "Tea Talk".
Could it be one of those “rabbits are so cute, how can we eat them” things?
Ning Wan shuddered all over, suppressed the chill and shook her head, classifying it as a useless skill without hesitation.
Xiao Qi rarely tried to refute Ning Wan's words and tacitly agreed with the host's point of view.
It really couldn't think of how to speak well of this skill and let the host accept it.
But it is willing to use its credibility to guarantee that it is absolutely not what the host thinks.
