Yan Baibai's words were full of curiosity. After all, this place didn't look like anyone had ever been there except them.
"What did you say!" Wu Pin's eyes flashed, and he looked at the ancient tree above the puddle: "You actually hid here!"
Seeing Wu Pin like this, Yan Baibai recalled their conversation yesterday and instantly understood.
Yan Baibai had already guessed that Wu Pin was the one who caused the accident on the ship, but she didn't know what his purpose was originally. However, she knew it now.
The ancient tree covered with purple flowers is called an ancient tree because its trunk has cracked and many holes have appeared due to the years. The holes are covered with moss, and the bark is also covered with many small ferns. As for the original color of the bark, it can no longer be seen.
"You're looking for the thing on the tree that makes the bell sound?" Yan Baibai looked at Wu Pin and asked. Before she could answer, Yan Baibai immediately figured it out and continued, "Is it the Soul-Eating Curse Bug?"
Wu Pin was now accustomed to Yan Baibai's sharpness. He met Yan Baibai's gaze and nodded.
Finally, he decided to explain: "I changed my route to Lucheng just to try my luck and see if I could encounter the Soul-Eating Curse Bug. I didn't hold out any hope, but unexpectedly..."
"Also, I'm sure I won't threaten anyone's life this time." Wu Pin looked at Yan Baibai with a rare look of respect in his eyes: "I won't hurt you... or anyone else."
Yan Baibai didn't expect to receive such a formal explanation. He nodded and looked at Zishu: "Are you sure you can catch it? Is it dangerous?"
"They are just good at hiding. They are not dangerous. You... don't have to worry." Wu Pin said as he walked carefully towards the purple tree, and took out a small square jade box from his waist.
As Wu Pin said, the soul-eating curse insect did not seem to be dangerous, but it still took Wu Pin some time to catch it.
"Is this the Soul-Eating Curse Bug?" Yan Baibai looked at the two fingernail-sized bugs in the jade box, which looked like ladybugs, and asked in confusion, "Where is that bell sound coming from?"
After observing for a long time, she did not find any bell-like organs on the insects that could produce sound.
Seeing that she didn't hear any answer, Yan Baibai moved her eyes away from the jade box and looked at Wu Pin's face. The next moment after meeting Wu Pin's gaze, the immortal immediately turned his head away and avoided her sight.
"Soul-eating cursed insects are good at camouflage. If you want to find them, you have to wait until their mating season, because only when they mate will they make a bell-like sound."
Seeing Wu Pin's ears turn red, Yan Baibai understood. In other words, while Wu Pin was catching the Soul-Eating Curse Bug, others were experiencing the Great Harmony of Life!
Yan Baibai couldn't help but sigh in her heart, no matter how mature Wu Pin usually pretended to be, she was still a virgin after all. She actually felt shy when talking about this. Maybe this was the cute contrast?
When Wu Pin turned his head to see Yan Baibai's reaction, he saw her expression as an experienced old man looking at the shy little girl, and was silent for a moment.
"Don't you have any questions?"
"without."
Wu Pin, who was worried that Yan Baibai would ask him the purpose of wanting the cursed insect and was frantically looking for an excuse, finally decided to tell her his purpose and fell silent again.
I didn't feel relieved, but rather a little blocked.
Yan Baibai didn't care about anything about him, nor was she curious about it. This wasn't what he wanted...
