"Besides... didn't everyone already know about the discord between the sea god and the goddess? That's why I didn't tell you about it."
After saying that, Yang Yu lowered her head and remained silent.
Shen Zhiyi gave her a cryptic look. This girl was rather interesting.
I've seen the video, but I haven't told my friends about it.
These people all seem to have a good relationship, right? I never expected that Yang Yu would know the truth but not report it.
Lin Qi had some doubts, but he didn't say anything. He just felt that something was wrong.
The rain outside isn't as heavy as it was last night.
After discussing it for a while, the group decided to leave once the rain subsided a bit.
This was Lin Qi's insistence. Originally, Yang Yu wanted everyone to wait until the rain stopped before leaving, but Lin Qi refused. He wanted to know what was wrong with Yang Yu.
If Yang Yu hadn't spoken up today, he wouldn't have noticed that Yang Yu had been acting strangely lately.
Now all he wants is to leave this place as soon as possible and confront Yang Yu.
He didn't want to make a fool of himself in front of outsiders.
Soon, the rain subsided considerably, and Lin Qi and the others left the cave.
After they all left, the cave became quiet.
Shen Zhiyi turned her head to look at the black snake that was motionless to the side.
Having been punished by Fox Moon again, Black Snake is now very well-behaved.
Seeing Shen Zhiyi looking over, the black snake raised its sharp tail and swayed it towards her.
"Yiyi, I'm going out for a stroll." Fox Moon stretched, feeling stiff all over after being cooped up in the cave for most of the day.
Shen Zhiyi patted Hu Yue's head and said, "Okay."
Fox Moon strolled out of the cave, intending to wander around the area and see if she could go hunting to improve her meals.
Although their usual meals are quite good.
But why does Fox Moon feel like they've forgotten something?
Fox Moon thought about it carefully but couldn't remember. It probably had nothing to do with her, which is why she couldn't remember it.
He shook his head and continued walking forward.
Shen Zhiyi picked up the black snake from the ground and waved it in front of her.
"What do you want to do?"
The black snake flicked its tongue, but didn't dare to utter a sound.
“You’re not stupid, I know you can understand human speech.” Shen Zhiyi shook the black snake hard again.
The black snake was a little dizzy from being shaken. After it recovered, it opened its mouth.
"Um... can I go with you?"
"?" Shen Zhiyi remained silent.
Shen Zhiyi put down the black snake and took two steps back.
She wondered if this thing, like the Fox Moon, had lived for hundreds of years.
The black snake seemed to know what Shen Zhiyi was thinking. It said, "I'm not an adult yet. I'm still a baby."
Indeed, the voice the black snake emitted was still very immature; if it could transform into human form, it would probably look only a teenager.
"..." Shen Zhiyi fell silent.
Fearing that Shen Zhiyi would disagree, the black snake awkwardly crawled over and lay down in front of her, striking poses in an attempt to win her over.
"Take me with you! I'm very toxic; I can poison everyone until they're unconscious! Poison everyone to death!"
Black Snake is aggressively promoting himself.
Shen Zhiyi was speechless. "Why do you insist on following me? Why didn't you ask about those people just now?"
The black snake paused for a moment, then said, "They don't smell as good as you."
"?" What kind of bizarre reason is that?
"You have a vibrant scent about you, it's very fragrant and pleasant." Black Snake obediently told Shen Zhiyi what he knew.
The taste of life?
Shen Zhiyi didn't quite understand. Wasn't she just an ordinary person? How could she have the life force that the black snake had mentioned?
"I didn't understand."
The black snake scratched its head with the tip of its tail. "Anyway, you have a vibrant scent that smells very nice and makes beasts feel comfortable, so they want to follow you."
"..."
But she didn't want to! She really couldn't afford to raise them!
"I eat very little. I can find food on my own and won't cause you any trouble." The black snake looked at Shen Zhiyi with pleading eyes.
Shen Zhiyi sighed, thinking to herself, "Anyone who didn't know better would think she ran a zoo."
Just as Shen Zhiyi and the black snake were locked in a stalemate, Fox Moon returned, carrying a pheasant in its beak.
"Yiyi!" Fox Moon placed the pheasant in front of Shen Zhiyi and urged her, "Yiyi, put it away, we're having this for dinner!"
Shen Zhiyi helped Hu Yue put the pheasant away.
After Fox Moon returned, the black snake huddled up and dared not speak.
"Yiyi, what did it just say to you?" Fox Moon had, of course, seen the black snake curled up in a ball.
"It wants to follow me, what do you think?" Shen Zhiyi found a place and sat down.
Fox Moon glared at the black snake. She knew it! This scheming snake was up to no good! So that's what he was waiting for!
The black snake shrank back meekly; it couldn't defeat Fox Moon, so it had no choice but to obey.
"Then let's follow along. This green tea snake is actually quite useful." Fox Moon jumped into Shen Zhiyi's arms and found a comfortable spot to nestle down.
Shen Zhiyi was somewhat surprised. She hadn't expected Hu Yue to agree. Just now, judging from her expression, wasn't she quite dissatisfied with the black snake?
"Hey, why are you looking at me like that?" Fox Moon snorted twice. "This green tea snake, like me, can change its size at will. It would be nice to have it do some dirty work."
After Fox Moon agreed, the black snake became energetic and immediately darted to Shen Zhiyi's side.
She straightened up and looked at Shen Zhiyi with bright eyes.
Its tail is pointed, like a puppy's, and it's almost wagging away.
"You green tea snake, I'm warning you, don't get any bad ideas, or I'll slap you to death."
The black snake shrank back, but remembering Shen Zhiyi's scent, it bravely climbed onto her body.
Finally, it shrank in size and wove itself onto Shen Zhiyi's wrist, disguising itself as a bracelet.
Shen Zhiyi reached out and touched it; the black snake felt cool to the touch, and its scales were very smooth.
"Let's go, it's time to go to West Town."
Shen Zhiyi placed Fox Moon on her shoulder and walked out of the cave.
"Yiyi, I ran into Lin Qi and the others when I went out for a walk just now."
"They seem to be arguing. That Yang Yu actually hit Jin Xiangyu."
Shen Zhiyi's guess was correct; Yang Yu was indeed suspicious.
"After Yang Yu injured Jin Xiangyu, she ran away. Lin Qi wanted to chase after her, but Jin Xiangyu was seriously injured, so he didn't." Fox Moon told her everything she knew.
"Yang Yu is quite ruthless. Just how badly must she have been injured for Lin Qi to give up the chase?"
The man and the beast chatted as they walked, and soon arrived near West Town.
West Town and South Town are similar, both with guards at the town entrance, but West Town is not as strictly guarded as South Town.
Everyone is welcome to go in, but we will search your personal belongings. Dangerous items are not allowed inside.
As soon as Shen Zhiyi arrived at the entrance of Xizhen Town, she was led to a small hut next to it by a female guard who said she needed to be checked.
"I'm sorry, the checks have been strict lately, so please bear with us," the female guard said apologetically.
Shen Zhiyi asked casually, "What's wrong?"
