Her throat tightened, she suppressed her nausea, and pointed behind the shadow.
The shadow turned.
Do the same.
Successfully ate another snake gall.
Huh, Meng Zhen breathed a sigh of relief.
Let’s get out of this damn place as soon as possible.
"Hey, can I go with you?"
Meng Zhen asked the black shadow.
The shadow glanced at her and nodded.
Meng Zhen followed him and walked out of the forest together.
The black shadow was holding snake meat in his hand.
Meng Zhen didn't dare get too close to him.
After leaving the forest, there were more villagers on the road.
Meng Zhen took a walk around the village a few days ago, and everyone knew that a particularly beautiful relative had come to the Song family.
At this moment, she was seen walking with a black shadow.
An auntie who had chatted with her about melon seeds pulled her over and whispered, "Why are you walking with him? His name is Zhang Qing, an orphan. No one knows where he came from. He was abandoned at the village entrance when he was a baby and was picked up by Teacher Zhang from the cowshed.

Meng Zhen smiled and continued to chase the black shadow.
Follow him all the way to where he lives.
The shadow turned around, and said in a cold voice with some sarcasm and stubbornness: "Stay away from me, or I'll harm you."
It turned out that he heard what the aunt said just now.
Meng Zhen smiled and said, "I'm not afraid, as long as you can overcome the thing I fear the most."
The shadow was stunned. He didn't expect her to say that.
Knowing where he lived, Meng Zhen didn't go in again.
She hung the canvas bag on her shoulder on the door and said, "If you don't want it, throw it away."
Before the shadow could react, he turned around and ran away quickly.
The canvas bag contained the bag of snacks, as well as some simple daily necessities she had put in on the way.
