The moment Xiao Yin landed, it quickly changed direction, its snake tail lightly touching the ground before rushing towards Xiao Zi.
Xiao Zi was not afraid at all. She leaped off Jiang Nian'an's shoulder and collided with Xiao Yin.
'Chirp'
'hiss'
The two little ones fell to the ground and immediately started wrestling.
When the king saw that Xiao Yin was being bullied by Xiao Zi, he immediately rushed over and opened his mouth to unleash a mouthful of flame.
Little Purple tilted her head back and absorbed the flames, but this also created an opportunity for Little Silver to attack.
It snapped its jaws down on Little Purple.
The pitch-black venom instantly entered Xiao Zi's body.
Having already suffered from Little Silver's venom once, Little Purple immediately grew a branch vine, forcing all the venom into it, then abandoned the branch vine and quickly retreated.
Little Silver didn't chase after it. Instead, it stayed close to the Great King, its tongue flicking in and out of its mouth, its round eyes fixed on Little Purple.
Xiao Zi shook its body, half of it submerged in the ground, preparing to continue its attack from underground.
Just then, a clicking sound came from the side.
The three little ones turned around at the same time and saw Jiang Nian'an and Shen Nanxing already sitting on the stone chairs to the side.
Jiang Nian'an was leaning against Shen Nanxing, holding a bag of potato chips in her hands, eating and looking at them at the same time.
"Um?"
Jiang Nian'an popped a potato chip into her mouth and nodded her chin at the three little ones, "Why did you stop playing? Keep going!"
Although the voice was perfectly calm, the three little silver birds sensed a threat in it and dared not fight back. They quickly crawled to Jiang Nian'an's feet.
'Hiss'
【Master, we were wrong~】
That's Xiao Yin's voice.
'Hiss'
"Master, we'll never fight again!"
This is the king's voice.
'Chirp chirp'
That's Xiao Zi's voice; no one can understand it.
However, judging from its constant wagging of its vine tail, it can be determined that it is saying flattering things.
Jiang Nian'an looked at the three well-behaved little ones, put away the potato chips, and became serious.
She reached out and tapped Xiao Zi's head with her finger.
"Apologize to Xiaoyin!"
If Xiao Zi hadn't suddenly lashed out at Xiao Yin, the fight wouldn't have happened.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zi awkwardly twisted her body before crawling to Xiao Yin's side.
It chirped at the little silver bird and lowered its head.
Seeing that it obediently apologized, Jiang Nian'an's expression softened. She then looked at Xiao Yin and asked, "Xiao Yin, do you accept Xiao Zi's apology?"
Xiao Yin hesitated for a moment before nodding.
Jiang Nian'an patted Xiao Yin's head, then reached out and picked it up, placing it on her shoulder.
Then he looked down at Xiao Zi, who had her head hanging low, and said in a serious tone, "Xiao Zi, I'll say it again, you are not allowed to attack your companions!"
When Xiao Zi saw Xiao Yin wrapped around Jiang Nian'an's shoulder again, she nodded hurriedly.
With a leap, he tried to jump onto Jiang Nian'an's other shoulder.
Jiang Nian'an flicked her finger, sending it flying back to the ground.
"As punishment for attacking your comrade without cause, from now until tomorrow night, you are not allowed to climb on my shoulder again."
'Chirp~'
Little Zi stared wide-eyed, unable to believe it.
Jiang Nian'an ignored it, took Shen Nanxing's hand, and got up to continue walking forward.
The king hurriedly followed.
Xiao Zi stared at their figures in the distance, stunned for several seconds, before dejectedly following them.
If it had known this would happen, it wouldn't have whipped that stinky snake...
'call--'
Little Purple opened her small mouth and, like a human, let out a heavy sigh.
"Stop dawdling and go lead the way."
After reaching a fork in the road, Jiang Nian'an turned around and called out to Xiao Zi.
Upon hearing Jiang Nian'an's voice, Xiao Zi immediately perked up and happily darted forward.
Led by Xiao Zi, Jiang Nian'an and Shen Nanxing quickly arrived at the cheapest accommodation area.
This area consists entirely of basements and various makeshift rental units.
The number of survivors has also visibly increased.
Most of them were ordinary people without superpowers, and many of them were wearing the uniforms of the base construction team.
He was covered in dust and looked exhausted; he had just come back from work.
Jiang Nian'an had the king find a secluded hiding place, while she and Shen Nanxing, along with Xiao Yin and Xiao Zi (who could be hidden in their waist pouches), entered the basement accommodation area.
The environment below was dark and damp, and emitted an unpleasant odor.
Various small insects scurried around on the ground, walls, and doors.
Jiang Nian'an took out two insect repellent sachets from her spatial storage and hung one on herself and one on Shen Nanxing.
The insects immediately crawled away.
The two held hands tightly and walked inside.
Oil lamps, emitting a faint glow, hung on both sides of the passageway, where people came and went in a chaotic mess.
Each house, as described in the previous brochure, was only about 10 square meters and was placed close together.
At a glance, there are at least 200 such houses in the 100-meter-long passageway.
"Hey, you two aren't from around here, are you new here?"
They had only walked a short distance when they were stopped by a scruffy, dirty man.
Shen Nanxing reached out and shielded Jiang Nian'an behind him, looking expressionlessly at the middle-aged man blocking their way.
The man grinned, glanced at the bag on Shen Nanxing's chest, and clapped his hands lightly.
A dozen or so people carrying shovels and hammers rushed out of the houses on both sides.
When they saw Jiang Nian'an and the other person, who were covered in blood but looked energetic and had rosy complexions, clearly having not suffered much hardship, jealousy flashed in their eyes.
"I'm not going to waste my breath on you."
