A moment later, Xiao Muxing stood stiffly, silently waiting for the pain to come. However, at this moment, a large, cold hand grabbed her and pulled her into an embrace. The cold embrace felt like a cellar that had never seen the sun in a long time, very cold, but the familiar scent that came to her nose made Xiao Muxing tremble slightly.
Qin Qing held the little girl in her arms, her gaze gradually softening. Feeling the girl's slight trembling, she realized that the clothes she had just quickly changed into were a bit cold. Just as she was about to let go of the little girl, a pair of small hands tightly gripped her collar, refusing to let go.
She smiled…
"Silly child, Grandma's arms are cold. Let go of me, or you'll catch a cold."
How could she not be cold? Her body was almost frozen, and even after changing her clothes, she couldn't warm up quickly. When she saw her granddaughter almost fall, she rushed over and momentarily forgot about her own temperature.
"No! Don't let go! If Xingxing lets go, Grandma will disappear!"
The little girl's firm and stubborn voice echoed in the black hole, sounding crisp and piercing. Qin Qing saw that the little girl's eyes were tightly closed, large tears were still hanging on her face, and she had a lot of snot and tears, looking both funny and pitiful...
Although Qin Qing felt sorry for her, she couldn't help but laugh out loud. Back then, when Xiao Muyue cried like this, she was ridiculed by Xiao Muxing. If she realized that she was like this now, she would be so embarrassed that she would die!
Hearing the laughter, Xiao Muyue quickly hugged Qin Qing's arm, showing no fear of this grandmother who might be a "ghost." At the same time, she felt extremely heartbroken because Qin Qing's arm felt very cold to the touch.
"Grandma?"
Qin Zifeng's eyes finally adjusted to the darkness, and he saw the old man and the child in front of him. He immediately exclaimed in surprise!
Qin Qing looked up and nodded at him upon hearing this. Then, looking helplessly at the little girl who was tightly hugging his arm, he teased her.
"If you don't let go, Grandma's arm will break! How will you hold Xingxing after this? You're crying like this, and Yueyue will laugh at you when we go out. You're the older sister, aren't you ashamed?"
Xiao Muxing was incredibly stubborn at this moment, refusing to let go no matter what, until Qin Qing said something!
"Sweetie, let's go outside first, Grandma's freezing!"
Upon hearing this, the little one immediately opened his eyes, grabbed her arm nervously, and pulled her outside.
"Ah Gou, hurry up, let's take Grandma out of here!"
This attitude suggests that even if you die, I will take your body and soul with me.
Qin Qing looked on with a sense of helplessness...
As she got closer to the cave entrance, she could clearly hear Xiao Muyue crying. The heart-wrenching wails were so distressing that they made one feel bad for her, let alone her!
Immediately, she reached out and picked up Xiao Muxing, quickened her pace and walked outside, with Qin Zifeng following closely behind.
At the cave entrance, Xiao Muyue cried harder and harder. Peony comforted her with heartache and sorrow, feeling extremely distressed...
At first, Tian Tian sat calmly to the side, unmoved. But after a while, she became a little annoyed. Her ears were ringing and her head was throbbing. She quickly frowned and looked impatiently at the little girl who was crying with snot and tears streaming down her face.
"Stop crying! The person is already dead, what's the use of crying!"
The reprimand startled Xiao Muyue, causing her to freeze in her sobbing. Her eyes reddened as she looked at her, her heart filled with even more grievance and sorrow!
"Wow! You bad guy! You're such a bad guy! You killed Grandma, you're a bad person! Wow!!"
Tian Tian felt a little better when she saw her stop yelling, but the next second the girl cried even louder!
Therefore, she suddenly felt extremely angry, her whole body became burning hot, and her eyes, which were originally a faint blue, gradually deepened, approaching purple...
Finally, she couldn't hold back any longer and exploded, glaring angrily at Xiao Muyue with a deep purple glint in her eyes!
"Enough! If you cry again, I'll kill you!"
A strong killing intent swept over them, and Xiao Muyue immediately turned pale with fright, her terrified eyes staring straight at Tian Tian. Upon hearing this, Shaoyao quickly hugged Xiao Muyue, turned her head and retaliated angrily at Tian Tian, showing no fear of her killing intent.
"Why are you being so fierce? Yueyue is just a child. Besides, her mother really did die because of you. If she hadn't been worried that you would risk your life by going in alone with your injured leg, she wouldn't have lost Qingqing's life!"
After saying that, Peony's face froze, as if she had seen something strange. Her mouth opened slightly in surprise.
"You...your eyes..."
Upon hearing the first part of the story, Tian Tian's anger subsided slightly, but she kept her lips pursed and her face cold. However, when she heard Shaoyao's last sentence and saw the surprise and fear on her face, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
"My eyes? What happened?"
After asking the question, Peony still seemed lost in thought and did not answer it, which made Tian Tian even more worried. She quickly walked to the mountain stream and saw her reflection in the water.
Dressed in a disheveled red outfit, her hair was messy and tangled, but the scars on her face had shrunk considerably, and she could faintly feel a slight itch. Before she could even be surprised, she saw her own eyes…
The deep purple hue beneath her eyes overshadowed the original black of her pupils, adding an air of sinister allure and profundity. Her originally beautiful and innocent face no longer seemed frightening; instead, it appeared incredibly alluring and captivating…
"What...what's going on?"
In a panic, she touched her eyelids, her face filled with shock!
Suddenly, she remembered something and hurriedly checked her clothes, but after looking for a long time, she found no trace of the pollen or slime of the Corpse Fragrance Arum on her face or body, as if everything that had happened before was an illusion!
"No... how is this possible?"
No one knows the function of the Corpse Fragrance Devil's Tongue. After all, this thing only exists in legends. She only heard about it by chance from some elders in her tribe. Now she seems to have absorbed the pollen and mucus of that thing. Could she turn into a monster?
Just then, Tian Tian felt the scar on her face becoming increasingly numb and itchy. She couldn't help but reach out to scratch it, but felt as if she had scratched off something. When she looked down, she found it was a piece of scar tissue that had fallen off!
"This...this..."
At this moment, words could not express her shock and excitement! She never dreamed that she would regain her appearance, and she never imagined that the Corpse Fragrance Devil's Flower would have such effects!
As she thought about it, her smile grew even brighter, and the water reflected her beautiful and delighted expression…
After she stood up, she realized that she did not feel any pain in her legs. A thought flashed through her mind, and she quickly tore off the layers of gauze!
