However, I soon stopped thinking so, because the two snakes' eyes were still blinking there. It was as if they were mocking my poor skills, which made me angry.
But I didn't have time to think about why the snake did such an abnormal thing, because the snake began to crawl towards me.
If I hadn't reacted quickly, the snake would have pounced on me while I was angry.
My eyes narrowed, and the next second I was filled with anger. I grabbed the knife at hand and slashed at the snake demon the second time it rushed towards me.
"hiss..."
I chopped off the snake demon's head with a knife, and blood splattered. I dodged in time, and the bright red snake head kept making a hissing sound.
Damn! Its head is broken off, but it can still move and scream. It is indeed a snake demon.
I thought about it and was worried that it would come back to life. I thought that if I didn't kill the snake, there would be endless trouble. So I quickly picked up the knife in my hand and chopped at the snake's head.
After a few cuts, the snake demon's head was basically turned into meat paste.
The fat guy next to me didn't have time to stop me. He just watched me do this series of actions and had nothing to say.
Finally, he pointed at the lump of flesh and said, "You are so cruel to desecrate someone else's body!" He nodded secretly after saying that, but when he saw me looking at him, he looked around and pretended not to see it.
"Thank you for the compliment. I have to be careful not to forget one!"
I used this as an excuse with a clear conscience, completely forgetting how brutal I had behaved before.
On the other side, Jack squatted down and gently turned over Xiao Ding's left eyelid. The white of the eye was completely exposed, which clearly showed that he had entered a deep coma. His right eye was slightly closed, revealing a thin slit of white.
Jack squatted there for a short while before he stood up and walked towards us.
"Jack, how's Xiao Ding? Is he okay?"
When Fatty and I saw Jack coming, we immediately went to meet him and looked at Xiao Ding with worried expressions and frowns.
"Xiao Ding should be fine. He was just overwhelmed and his emotions were too volatile. He might have fainted because he was hypnotized before."
"I see!"
Fatty and I breathed a sigh of relief when we heard Xiao Ding was okay, hoping he'd wake up soon. But Jack's words that Xiao Ding might have been hypnotized put my mind at ease, because the snake demon had just said Xiao Ding was his. Even though I didn't believe it, I kept it in mind, and now I felt much more at ease.
Jack hesitated for a moment before continuing, "It might be mentally damaging for Xiao Ding to be hypnotized at such a young age. He'll be more sleepy in the future."
When Fatty and I heard this, we were obviously stunned. We had never expected such consequences. We couldn't help feeling sad. Unable to bear it any longer, I slapped myself.
Fatty and Jack immediately looked at me, and seeing the self-blame on my face, there was another silence. After all, this was not something we all wanted to see. After this battle, no one was sleepy anymore.
"Then what about you saying that he fainted due to stimulation? Wasn't he knocked unconscious by me?" The fat man suddenly remembered the key words in Jack's mouth and raised his own question.
Jack was silent for a moment, as if he didn't know what to say. Finally, he sighed and said, "Actually, Xiao Ding might have started to wake up when the snake demon died. He saw that he was actually fighting against you, so..."
Although the second half was not finished, we all understood what it meant.
The fat man covered his face and sighed, "Don't tell me Xiao Ding thinks all the injuries on his body are caused by him! But don't do that! That would be such a shock to him! No, I have to explain this to him later!"
After listening to what the fat man said, we realized that Xiao Ding was really upset. Maybe he thought she had hurt the fat man, so he fainted. It was also a big mistake.
"Oh, it's all my fault. If I had knocked him out earlier, none of this would have happened! What a coincidence! I thought I knocked him out!"
When the fat man thought about the situation at that time, guilt surged in his heart.
"Fatty, don't think too much, you just..." I couldn't tell what I meant by just. I knew about Fatty's previous behavior, but I wanted to take this opportunity to train him and completely ignored his feelings after waking up. To be honest, I am more responsible for this. If I hadn't been so indifferent, this situation would not have happened.
"Alright, we all understand. He's been your personal caregiver all the way to this point, so the bond between you and him is naturally deep. So, instead of feeling guilty, I believe you should think about how to persuade him."
Jack didn't think there was anything wrong with their reaction, so he naturally didn't blame them. Instead, he felt that we protected him too closely. After all, this place was not like other places, and too much protection was not necessarily a good thing. Of course, he didn't say it out loud.
"But he will grow up sooner or later, so your behavior isn't necessarily wrong. Um... I don't need to explain this. You should have understood it when you chose to do that before. And Fatty should have noticed that he woke up!"
Jack was still so calm and didn't beat around the bush. We both felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this, especially the fat man. It was still a bit awkward to have his thoughts and actions spoken so directly.
"Actually, I... I just feel bad for Xiao Ding, but I don't think it's a big deal, I..."
The fat man stretched out his hand and awkwardly gathered the hair beside his ears, then looked down at his toes with a somewhat stiff tone. He wanted to apologize, but the person who really needed his apology was lying inside the tent.
"I...I'm sorry. When he wakes up, I will apologize to him in person."
I looked at him in disbelief. I never thought that the fat man would lie and hide such important things. This was all beyond my expectation. Now I know that not all good intentions will necessarily have good results.
Everyone's faces really looked bad at this time, it should be said that they were very ugly.
My face instantly turned ashen, brimming with rage. I clenched my fists, veins bulging on the backs of my hands, and my voice became incredibly cold. "Oh? Then why did you say you didn't know?"
"I……"
The fat man was sweating profusely. He really didn't know what to say in the current situation.
"More haste, less speed. I hope this is the last time!" After saying that, I closed my eyes and stopped emphasizing anything.
When the fat man saw this expression, his face color changed, and finally he turned his back to me. I think if Xiao Ding was not here, we would both stand next to him and still be looked at by him.
