As for himself, if she called him "Gu Gu, Gu Gu" all night long, he would really have the illusion that he had turned into a bird.
Because the sound of "固固" is exactly the same as "谷谷谷谷".
Because of its coastal location, the nights here are particularly cold, so Pei Gu gathered a lot of branches to use as firewood.
"It's time to sleep."
Although he's not very good at taking care of children, controlling his schedule is a compulsive trait of Pei Gu.
It was almost time, so Pei Gu came to Xiao Anman's side to remind her that it was time to go to sleep.
Normally, Xiao Anman wouldn't have shown anything unusual about this, but perhaps today's situation is a bit special.
So after Pei Gu told her to rest, she held the jade and glanced at Pei Gu again.
I have a strange feeling in my heart, and I don't know how to express it.
Xiao An struggled a little, but finally decided not to look at Yu Yu. Instead, she leaned against the fire on the prepared mat and began to doze off.
Pei Gushi certainly couldn't sleep, because he had to keep watch.
Who knows what strange and dangerous things might be on this deserted island? So, to ensure his safety, he cannot sleep.
The firelight illuminated Xiao Anman's face, making him look especially adorable and terrifying.
Her eyebrows were light, but their shape was truly beautiful. Her eyelashes were thick and curled, her nose was delicate, and her lips were rosy. She was definitely a beauty in the making.
Although Pei Gu wasn't the type to appreciate beauty, he could still tell that Xiao Anman stood out from the crowd, both in terms of her bone structure and appearance.
As Pei Gu gazed at the blazing fire, another image of Xiao Anman flashed through his mind for a fleeting moment.
Enveloped in the azure sea, the tiny little dumpling's feet are not visible, but its golden tail can be seen swimming in the water.
The translucent, antler-shaped object on its forehead looked so real.
But all of this disappeared when he finally pulled Xiao Anman out of the water. Because the scene was too fantastical, Pei Gu still couldn't tell whether it was reality or a dream when he thought about it again.
If this is reality, is the little dumpling next to me actually human?
If it was a dream, how do you explain the fatal wound you suffered long ago?
Pei Gu was unusually confused.
While he was lost in these illogical thoughts, Pei Gu did not notice the subtle changes that were beginning to occur in the little dumpling beside him.
The warm jade gradually became hot after Xiao Anman fell into a deep sleep, but she no longer felt the heat while asleep.
All Xiao Anman could feel was warmth, because this warmth actually came entirely from her own power.
When Xiao Anman was asleep, and when she faced 'Su Xixi', she relied entirely on her half-awakened power.
The portion of power that was devoured by 'Susie' had a powerful backlash, which is why 'Susie' became the way she is.
The power of backlash is terrifying and irreversible. Based on the protection of the original owner, everything 'Susie' does will be severely punished.
That's what she got for her own actions.
However, it was precisely because of this stimulus that Xiao Anman's awakened power began to lose its balance.
A warm light enveloped Xiao Anman's body. Because of the firelight's concealment, Pei Gu didn't notice Xiao Anman's rapidly growing, jet-black hair, or her gradually changing and evolving body...

"I really, really don't know anything. I've never even seen that child..."
When Helian Min goes mad, he can take a life in silence.
Helian Kang was already considered a madman, but when faced with someone like Helian Min, he could only kneel down and beg for mercy.
Who would have thought that Helian Min would actually carry poison with her?
Moreover, the attack was indiscriminate and carried out in this private room. After Helian Min fed him a pill, Helian Kang was in a terrible state.
Medicine and poison are essentially one and the same; the saying "every medicine has some degree of toxicity" comes from this.
Helian Min was an expert in pharmacology, so making some poisons was not difficult for him.
The main reason why Helian Min trembled after being fed such a pill was that Helian Min's poison-making skills were also approved by the old man.
Of course, it was just praise for his talent and skills, but it didn't encourage him to continue.
Given the old man's meticulous nature, whatever was presented to him would be judged solely on its merits. Regardless of who it came from, if the item was good, it was simply considered good; if it was bad, he would never offer any extra praise.
How could Helian Kang not tremble when such a terrifying person carried such a terrifying thing with him?
Moreover, Helian Min thoughtfully explained that the poison was only prepared six hours in advance.
When the time comes, without an antidote, they will all truly die.
Helian Kang no longer thought Helian Min was joking, because the Helian Min standing in front of her now seemed like a completely different person.
But he is really unlucky now, because he has already confirmed his motives and actions.
"Really, I'm telling the truth. You have to believe me. If I had really caught the child you mentioned, how could I still be here? I would definitely take her back to the main family to see you... That was my original plan. Now I'm telling you, I really haven't seen her."
At this moment, Helian Kang no longer cared about his image. He knelt at Helian Min's feet, crying with tears and snot streaming down his face.
