After breakfast, An Tingyu quietly came to the secret room in the cellar, said Happy New Year to Xingmo, and then led everyone to Xiaoguai's cave.
Looking at the mysterious cave, Jing Aotian said with some fear: "Yu'er, forget it!"
Of course, his fear was not because he was afraid of death, but because Jing Aotian was somewhat resistant to the python that hurt An Tingyu and was unwilling to see it.
"What? I dare to go in, so why don't you, a grown man, dare to go in?" An Tingyu raised her eyebrows lazily.
Jing Aotian rolled his eyes. "Provoking him won't work on me. I just think it's a python after all. Snakes are the coldest-blooded animals. If you go in rashly, something might happen. Besides, Xi'er is here too! You have to think about him, right?"
"I've already told you that Xiaoguai attacked us to protect the Tianshan Snow Lotus. Now Xiaoguai and I are good friends, and he won't hurt us. Besides, today is the first day of the new year, and I want to wish him a happy new year."
The corners of Jing Aotian's mouth twitched, and he suddenly didn't know what to say.
Happy New Year to the python?
This was the most amazing thing he had ever heard, and it was something he had never heard before. Just ask yourself, who would wish a python a happy new year? Only she, An Tingyu, would do this!
"How big is that python?" Jing Qingwu asked curiously.
The little Xi'er didn't know what the python they were talking about was, but she was like a curious baby. Liu Yunsheng, who had never seen a big python, also looked at An Tingyu. As for Xing'er and Meizi, they were women after all. They were only afraid of this huge and cold-blooded animal, not to mention that this python had hurt An Tingyu before. A python that could cause An Tingyu such serious injuries under the protection of Jing Aotian and Dang Yan was definitely not something to be trifled with, so they were really timid.
"It's so big it can swallow us all."
"This... is that so!" Jing Qingwu looked conflicted, curious and a little scared.
"Mom, hurry up, I want to see, I want to see!" Little Yunxi couldn't wait any longer, so she urged.
An Tingyu smiled softly, raised her eyebrows, and then gave Xiao Yunxi a thumbs-up. "My son is great. He is much braver than your father."
Jing Aotian rolled his eyes. "That's because Xi'er doesn't even know what a python is. If he sees one... he won't cry, will he?" He paused and added worriedly, "That would scare Xi'er silly. It's better not to go in."
Jing Aotian always felt that something was not right. Regardless of whether the python would attack them now, Xiao Yunxi was still young after all. Seeing such a huge python, how could Xiao Yunxi not be afraid?
"You look like you're scared silly. You're a typical example of someone who is afraid of ropes for ten years after being bitten by a snake. Xier, let's go. Let's ignore your father. He doesn't have the courage to go in. We can go in." An Tingyu said as she took little Yunxi's hand and walked into the cave.
Seeing this, Jing Aotian sighed helplessly and had to follow him in.
Jing Qingwu, Liu Yunsheng and others followed An Tingyu's footsteps and walked into the cave. As soon as they entered the cave, they were attracted by the stone crystals in the cave.
"Wow! So beautiful! Are these really stones? It's hard to believe." Jing Qingwu said in admiration.
An Tingyu smiled and said, "These are stone crystals (barite). What do you think? Seeing such a view is worth the risk, right?"
Jing Qingwu nodded vigorously. Although she had seen stone crystals before, they were all carvings and usually very small in size. However, this cave was full of stone crystals, colorful and beautiful, as if she had come to a dream.
At this moment, Liu Yunsheng pulled Jing Qingwu's robe, and Jing Qingwu asked: "What?"
Liu Yunsheng didn't say anything and pulled her again. Jing Qingwu looked back at him unhappily and said, "What on earth are you going to do?"
Liu Yunsheng still didn't speak, but stared at a certain place and pointed. Following the direction he pointed, Jing Qingwu looked at it in confusion, but...
"Drink~"
Jing Qingwu was so shocked that she didn't dare to breathe, because at this moment, the giant python was looking down at them and spitting out its tongue at them condescendingly.
"Little cutie!" An Tingyu cheered.
The python stretched out its body and rushed towards An Tingyu.
"Yu'er, be careful!" Jing Aotian exclaimed, but An Tingyu didn't even look at him. Instead, she opened her arms and hugged the big python. "Xiaoguai, I missed you so much! Did you miss me?"
hiss~
The big python made a hissing sound, as if responding to An Tingyu, and then put its head close to An Tingyu and rubbed it affectionately.
"Haha~" An Tingyu was amused by it, and then waved to Xiao Yunxi, "Xi'er, come here, this is Xiaoguai, you two will be friends from now on. Xiaoguai, this is my son, you can't hurt him!"
"Can it... can it understand?" Jing Qingwu finally found her voice. She was curious and a little scared about the scene in front of her, because this big python was so huge that she could eat them with just one mouth.
"Of course, little darling, right?" An Tingyu did not forget to ask the big python sister at the end. As for the latter, it spit out its tongue and then lowered its head, as if responding to An Tingyu's words.
"Mom, will it bite me?" Little Yunxi opened her curious little face.
"No, touch it."
Xiao Yunxi's eyes lit up, and then he stepped up to the front of the python, but...
"Mom, I'm not tall enough to touch its head." Little Yunxi pouted, looking disappointed. But just as he finished speaking, the big python actually lowered its head to the ground, allowing Little Yunxi to reach it.
Seeing this, little Yunxi immediately smiled and approached the python, curiously touching it here and there, "Mom, I touched it."
An Tingyu chuckled and said nothing.
"What a spiritual python!" Liu Yunsheng exclaimed.
"It seems that my worries are unnecessary." At this time, Jing Aotian also said something. He was really worried, but he didn't expect that this giant python would really become friends with An Tingyu, and even those who followed An Tingyu were fine.
After playing in the cave for a while, they returned to Xingmo's palace. As soon as they came back, Xing'er and Meizi went to prepare lunch, while An Tingyu chatted with them in the hall. It was not until they were all having their meal that a cold voice broke their joy.
"An Tingyu, do you still have the nerve to come here? And bring so many people here to make noise. What do you think this place is? Get out of here, you are not welcome here." Feng Sang walked into the palace with a cold face. She was originally worried that her royal brother would spend the New Year alone in the mountains, but she didn't expect to see An Tingyu.
How could she still have the nerve to come here after she caused her royal brother to go blind?
