He originally had some questions to ask this monster.
For example, why does it pretend to be a white snake?
...
"Abai, have you eaten that monster?"
After Xiao Xiao asked this question, he couldn't help but look at Ah Bai's slender body wrapped around his wrist.
Although snakes can eat food several times their own body size.
However, the size difference between A Bai and that Suyu seems to be a bit too big?
Can you really eat it?
…
"No."
A Bai looked disgusted, "I don't want to eat it."
"Such a dirty and disgusting guy."
Xiao Xiao smiled slightly and touched White Snake's head, "Then give it to me?"
"certainly."
White Snake rubbed Xiao Xiao's fingertips and said, "If Master Xiao Xiao needs it, just take it."
…
"Gu carving."
"Jie~"
A huge black shadow enveloped the sky and soon disappeared behind the gate.
…
Just walked into the teahouse, "Third brother!"
A familiar voice sounded.
Xiao Xiao raised his eyes and saw Zhao Lu, who was sitting by the window, waving to him.
He smiled, turned around, and walked slowly over.
…
As soon as Xiao Xiao sat down, Xiao's mother happened to pass by their table.
She glanced at Xiao Xiao with some dissatisfaction, "You kid, your classmates have been waiting for you here for a long time, why did it take so long to come back?"
"Ah, Auntie, it's okay. I know the third brother has something going on."
In the final analysis, he was the one who brought this matter about. Zhao Luzheng smiled with a guilty conscience.
"Besides, I didn't wait long."
Mother Xiao smiled and said, "What a considerate child."
"Auntie invites you to this table."
"No, no, how is this possible?"
Zhao Luzheng waved his hands repeatedly, "Auntie, I won't dare to come here again if you act like this."
"Then let your third brother treat you."
Mother Xiao smiled and said in another way, "Just think of it as an apology for making you wait for so long."
"Why……"
Is there a difference between the two?
Zhao Luzheng wanted to say something else, but Xiao Xiao responded, "Yes, I'll beg you."
"Your third brother is treating me to a treat. Don't be polite. Just order whatever you want."
After Xiao's mother warned Zhao Luzheng again, she left to greet other guests.
…
Zhao Luzheng couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiao Xiao was a little funny.
Noticing Xiao Xiao's expression, Zhao Luzheng coughed twice in embarrassment, "Well, Auntie is too enthusiastic."
"Besides, today was originally because I brought people here..."
"I asked you to bring this person."
Xiao Xiao said quietly, "Okay, it's not too early now."
"Are you going back to school or staying at my place?"
"Oh, I'll go back-"
"etc."
Zhao Luzheng suddenly reacted, "Third brother, are you just sending me away like this?"
He couldn't help but rolled his eyes, "I still have a lot of questions to ask."
"Oh, then you can ask."
Xiao Xiao picked up the tea cup and took a sip. The rich aroma of tea instantly filled his mouth.
He couldn't help but narrowed his eyes slightly.
…
"Third brother, why are you back alone? Where is Li Min?"
Xiao Xiao instantly understood that Li Gu was the boy's name.
"He sent his girlfriend to the hospital."
"ah-"
Zhao Luzheng hurriedly lowered his voice, "Did something really happen to his girlfriend?"
To be honest, he was a little confused when he heard what Li Meng said before.
And, kidnapping a girl for a snake?
He had really never heard of such a thing.
The third brother followed, and he was still wondering if he would find out when he got there that it was just a farce.
As a result, did it end up being sent to the hospital?
"Is that girl okay?"
he asked with concern.
"It's okay, just rest for a few days and you'll be fine."
There shouldn't be any serious physical problems.
Just mentally... I was probably quite frightened.
However, with Li Gu by her side, the girl will surely get out of the shadow of these few days soon.
Just think of it as a nightmare.
When you wake up from the dream, nothing happens.
…
"Third brother, what exactly is going on?"
Zhao Luzheng looked at the white snake on Xiao Xiao's wrist, with confusion on his face, "Who is that person? Did he really kidnap that girl for A Bai?"
"It also-"
Zhao Luzheng frowned and thought for a moment, "Isn't that too exaggerated?"
"Is the other person a big fan of snakes?"
"Or is there something special about Abai?"
Having said this, Zhao Luzheng couldn't help but lean his upper body forward a lot. He approached Xiao Xiao's wrist on the table and looked at Ah Bai carefully.
A few rays of sunlight shined on Ah Bai's body through the gaps in the bamboo curtains, and little bits of silver phosphorus shone with tiny rays of light.
Really beautiful.
It is not cold and slimy in people's impression of snakes, but has an awe-inspiring nobility.
The pedigree of this snake should be very good, right?
Such a Bai...
It wouldn’t be surprising if it was really taken a fancy by some fanatical collector?
Although it is incredible, there are all kinds of people in the world.
There are many weird things that are difficult to understand.
Maybe, this time, they met such a strange person.
…
"Well..."
Xiao Xiao took a piece of tea and handed it to Ah Bai.
White Snake opened her eyes, raised her head slightly, said "Ah woo~" and swallowed the whole tea in one gulp.
Even though it was not the first time he saw Ah Bai eating, Zhao Luzheng was still amazed by its extremely tolerant mouth and stomach.
"The other party probably regards Abai as Tang Monk's flesh."
"Tang Monk Meat?"
Zhao Luzheng withdrew his eyes from Ah Bai and looked at Xiao Xiao.
"Well, the other party thinks that eating Abai is good for his body."
"Is it good for your health?"
Zhao Luzheng repeated it blankly, a bit stunned.
This reason...
It would be better to say that a collector took a fancy to Ah Bai, which made him feel more accepting.
Although what kind of collector doesn't even talk about it, but just grabs it?
There is no transition between being polite first and then fighting.
Besides, snake meat is indeed quite nutritious, but how can it be called Tang Monk meat?
"Ah, I don't know what the other party thinks."
Xiao Xiao fed another piece of tea to the little white fox that hit him with its tail.
"Maybe he took some anecdotes about the White Snake that he read somewhere seriously."
"Well, it's possible."
Zhao Luzheng looked astonished, "It is true that some people just can't tell the difference between legend and reality."
"It's really hard to understand."
"legend-"
Zhao Luzheng suddenly paused, and then said somewhat sarcastically, "Of course, some legends are true."
For example, the existence of monsters.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that he can't be so confident and blame some people for their whims.
"but-"
Zhao Luzheng thought of another question, "Since what the other party wants is the third brother's white snake, then why did he capture that girl?"
"Third brother, you don't know that girl very well, do you?"
"That girl accidentally saw Ah Bai before and liked Ah Bai very much."
Xiao Xiao had some guesses at this point, "Maybe the other party heard her description of A Bai somewhere and got interested."
