Chapter 57, Update 1: Everyone says Ah Shu is a snake’s child.
When I returned to the gym again, my mood was different from before.
The two men did not linger or reminisce. After taking the snake skin, they called the sika deer and its family over.
Xinxue said straight to the point without beating around the bush: "The Free Base to the east is now Ah Shu's territory. Are you willing to live there?"
Although this sentence was plain, it still aroused the deer's cry.
"Yo yo yo!"
King Ashu is so powerful! Did he drive away all other humans and expand his territory?
"Yo-yo! Yo-yo-yo!"
Let's go, of course. Wherever King Ashu and King Xinxue are, we'll go.
"Yo-yo-yo?"
I remember that base was even bigger than the last one we went to, and it was packed with people—so how did they do it? Did they kill everyone? Are we supposed to help you deal with the bodies when we get there?
As the deer's guesses became more and more outrageous, Ah Shu couldn't help but feel the veins on his forehead bulge.
"We only dealt with the bad guys, most of the people are alive and well! What kind of snake do you think I am?" She suppressed the urge to kick the deer's stupid head as if it were a ball.
He said impatiently: "Why so much nonsense, I conquered that territory and subdued the humans.
Now that the territory has expanded, evolved species can live there normally and walk around the streets normally. I just want to ask you, are you willing to go?"
It would have been fine if she hadn't explained, but once she did, the deer became even more frightened for some reason.
His legs were shaking, and he almost fell down: "Yo yo? Yo yo yo..."
Is that so? We were mistaken. Sorry, sorry...
Xinxue couldn't understand the language of the evolved species, but she could roughly tell their mood from their expressions and actions.
Seeing the frightened looks on the sika deer's faces, she almost understood.
She patted Ah Shu's back with amusement and whispered in her ear, "Go and clean up the snake skins first, I'll tell them."
As soon as Ah Shu left, the sika deer gradually relaxed, and Xinxue couldn't help laughing twice.
She cleared her throat and said, "I know that everyone has always looked up to Ah Shu's powerful snake form, so they are full of fear of her. The impression she has of her is still that she is decisive in killing and ruthless in moods.
But now that she has become a human and lives among people, she has to control her temper and play the role of a human.
Therefore, the recapture of Freedom Base this time was also done using human methods, without rivers of blood or corpses strewn across the ground."
Seeing the deer's thoughtful expressions and their expressions wanting to hear more news, Xinxue smiled cunningly.
She continued, "In fact, I am the most powerful person in the Freedom Base. Even Ah Shu cannot disobey my orders.
So now it’s not Ah Shu forcing everyone to go into the city and live with humans, but I want everyone to come into the base and help me do things.”
As she spoke, Xinxue revealed a bit of sadness: "The relationships in human society are complicated. Although I am the city lord, I can't trust anyone.
You are all I have. I hope you can come to the city to help me, just like you helped me in the gym before, so that we can live a good life together.
I will treat you to a good meal and a comfortable house."
She has always been good at making use of her strengths and weaknesses.
I think as long as the starting point is good, there is nothing wrong with using some means.
Sure enough, the sika deer have always liked more new snow. When they heard this, they felt both distressed and excited.
I am also very honored to be able to help when Xinxue needs it.
They chirped and came over to rub her hands affectionately, expressing their support with actions.
When the mother deer rubbed Xinxue's belly with her cheek, she suddenly realized something.
Xinxue met her moist and gentle eyes and nodded.
She touched her belly a little embarrassedly and said, "Well, I'm going to be a mother too. It's Ah Shu's baby."
Now the sika deer herd let down their guard and cheered.
They chirped, and Xinxue couldn't understand what they were saying, but she could feel their happiness and blessings.
She touched the wet noses of all the sika deer to show her affection, and struck while the iron was hot, saying, "We have to go back to our previous base to pick up Xiaobai.
Therefore, I would like to ask everyone to tell the evolved species around us in advance that we will be living in a free base in the future.
If you want to go with us, wait by the roadside when you hear the convoy, and we’ll go home together.”
Her words made the sika deer very excited. They kicked their hooves and danced on the grass, and couldn't wait to spread the news of their entry into the city.
Xinxue and Ashu returned to the team that night. The huge and intact snake skin in the car further confirmed everyone's speculation that "Ashu is the daughter of the python king."
Apart from coming over to take a look at the snake skin in amazement, the entire team didn't dare to ask any more questions.
After all, when it comes to matters concerning identity, the more you know, the greater the chance of being silenced.
Only Xin Xianglan couldn't calm down after hearing all the rumors in the team.
In the evening, everyone set up their tents and prepared to camp.
She quietly grasped Xinxue's wrist, pursing her lips, "Xuexue... everyone in the team says Ah Shu, Ah Shu is the child of a snake. Do you know about this?"
Xinxue noticed that her mother was not in good condition, and thought that she was feeling uncomfortable while her eyes were recovering, so she became nervous.
Hearing that this was what was bothering her mother, Xinxue couldn't help but giggle.
"Hahahaha, that's not true. A human and a snake can give birth to a child. That's pure nonsense.
The Python Queen is our friend, and we just came over to say hello. This is a gift from her.”
Xin Xianglan also found it unlikely.
But when it comes to her daughter, even the smallest thing can become a thorn in her heart.
Seeing Xinxue's frank and generous denial, the thorn in her heart was finally removed.
Xin Xianglan squeezed Xin Xue's hand sheepishly and apologized sincerely, "Xue Xue, it's Mom's fault. I wrongly blamed Ah Shu. She's such a good person, and she's also good to you. I shouldn't have thought about it like that."
Xinxue hugged her mother back and told her to relax: "It's okay, it's okay. This is ridiculous. If I tell Ah Shu, she will definitely not be able to stop laughing.
The Python King is so kind to us because of my special ability. She was injured and curled up in a ball, almost dying, and I used all my strength to help her heal.
She said these words sincerely, but the truth was that they were half truths.
After a little thought, I realized that my mother must have heard her teammates' random guesses if she thought this way.
It's not a good idea to keep everyone guessing like this.
Xinxue continued, "The Python King is a man who knows how to repay a favor. He heard that now that I've become the city lord, he's sending his capable men to help me. Once your eyes are healed, you should be able to see everyone again."
Xinxue listed them all, "There's a family of sika deer covered in scales, making them invulnerable to weapons, mynah birds with loud voices that can speak human language, and field mice and giant rats that can help us plant and water the fields. It's going to be a lively place from now on!"
Sure enough, her mother was successfully diverted and no longer immersed in suspicion and jealousy.
Xin Xianglan smiled and said, "No wonder you haven't recruited any positions other than cleaners for the City Lord's Mansion. It turns out you're waiting here."
Xinxue nodded rapidly, feigning seriousness as she replied, "That's right. The claws and hooves of the evolved species aren't very flexible, so they can't do delicate work like cleaning. Otherwise, we wouldn't even need to hire a cleaning staff."
After safely passing through the Python King's territory, the rest of the journey became much easier.
The entire convoy had a smooth journey and arrived at the Freedom Base ahead of schedule.
