The half-opened rose-red eyes were full of mockery.
However, he glanced at the old man and looked away.
Selfish human beings.
Do monsters harm the world?
Although this statement is a partial generalization, it is also somewhat true.
It doesn't deny it.
There are indeed monsters who are malicious to humans.
But why haven't humans harmed monsters?
Sometimes, greedy humans are more terrifying than monsters.
…
"Hiss~"
The white snake's smooth and cool body stroked the back of the hand.
Xiao Xiao subconsciously raised his hand.
The white snake raised its head, and the scarlet snake suddenly burst into the sight of the old man who stared at Xiao Xiao without blinking.
Looking at the old man who was startled and leaned back hastily, a happy smile flashed across Bai She's bright red vertical pupils.
…
The old man supported the bed with his hands, his eyes were frightened, and his expression was a bit embarrassed.
After waiting for a while and realizing that the snake made no next move, the old man slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
He almost thought the snake was going to pounce on him just now.
…
Xiao Xiao lowered his eyes and glanced at White Snake.
There was a hint of smile in his eyes.
The white snake twisted its body and wrapped itself around Xiao Xiao's wrist again.
Quietly, it looks like a white jade bracelet.
There was a bright and hazy halo exuding in the somewhat dim room.
Even though he had just been frightened by this white snake, the old man couldn't help but feel a little distracted.
What a beautiful white snake.
It is completely different from the cold and ferocious appearance that most people have in mind.
However, a snake is a snake after all.
The old man looked at the white snake that seemed very harmless at this time with some fear.
The snake had just shown its fangs to him, and he didn't believe it was harmless.
"Young man, is this your snake?"
The old man frowned and subconsciously moved to the side, further away from the white snake.
"Yes."
Xiao Xiao put his hands on his knees, and the white snake wrapped around his wrist was looming in the sleeves.
An obvious fact, isn't it?
"Today's young people."
The old man shook his head and sighed, "What are you raising?"
"What's so good about snakes?"
"Even if it doesn't bite you, what if it bites someone else?"
"What about biting someone else's child?"
"Children are curious, but they will reach out and touch it."
…
"Hiss~"
The white snake grinned, its sharp fangs looming.
The old man suddenly felt as if he was being stared at by something terrifying, and his voice suddenly stopped.
It took a while before the old man found his voice again.
"what happened?"
The old man murmured in a low voice and turned his head to look around.
Nothing was found.
I don't care anymore.
Maybe he's just too nervous?
The old man couldn't help but think so.
He looked at Xiao Xiao again.
Distracted by the inexplicable feeling just now, the old man also forgot where he had talked before. What did he say again?
But the white snake is not the point.
He returned to the original theme.
"young people."
"A monster is a monster."
"Who knows why it saved me?"
"Don't be too naive."
The old man said earnestly, "As long as you help me, I will give you whatever you want."
"What a bargain, isn't it?"
"Young man, if you hurt a monster to save an old man, no one will say anything to you."
"You are doing something good."
"I will be grateful to you forever."
…
Xiao Xiao touched the little white fox who rolled his eyes.
He was also a little helpless towards the "stubborn" old man.
Isn't his attitude still obvious?
"Uncle Li."
"sorry, I-"
"Why?!"
As long as he listened to the beginning, the old man would know the young man's answer.
It's just that he doesn't understand.
I really don't understand.
"Why don't you help me?"
"I will also give you money, lots and lots of money."
"You just need to help me catch that monster."
"Your mission is accomplished."
“How simple!”
The old man was filled with wonder.
If he encountered such a good thing, he would not hesitate at all and would immediately respond.
"How come you, a young man, just can't make sense?"
"How can you be more stubborn than an old man like me?"
Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, "No, speaking of stubbornness, Uncle Li, I think-"
"We're only half as good as each other."
The old man looked like he was choked.
Xiao Xiao smiled slightly.
"Uncle Li, why did you think I could catch that monster?"
The old man's lips moved a few times, "...you can see it."
Then he added hastily, "I think you are very powerful."
"Thank you for your affirmation of me."
Xiao Xiao was a little surprised by the old man's sensitivity. He paused and slowly said, "That monster is very powerful."
"Actually, you can tell from its size."
"Generally speaking, the bigger the monster is, the stronger it is."
"Although you are so confident in me, I don't think I can definitely defeat the opponent."
Seeing the old man opening his mouth to speak, Xiao Xiao seemed to be smiling but not smiling, "And-"
"I don't know where it is either."
"I don't know how long it will take to find it."
The old man wanted to speak again.
Xiao Xiao did not give him this chance.
"Of course, in fact, these are just excuses."
The old man was stunned.
Xiao Xiao's expression was indifferent, as if what came out of his mouth were not rude words, but polite words, his tone was gentle and nonchalant, "I just don't want to help."
"I'm glad that monster meat has no effect on your illness."
"Otherwise, I might have a headache."
The corners of Xiao Xiao's mouth curled up slightly.
He stood up and said, "I think our conversation is over."
"etc!"
The old man hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold Xiao Xiao.
"Ah~"
The old man shouted and quickly retracted his hand.
He looked at the little white fox in the arms of the young man in front of him in surprise, and paused for a moment especially at the little white fox's closed eyes.
This fox had his eyes closed. How did you hit him?
Is it a coincidence?
In any case, this does not prevent him from holding accountable this young man who repeatedly rejected him, "Why does your little fox hit people?"
"It's both a snake and a fox. Young man, why do you keep such strange pets?"
The old man suddenly realized, "Young man, you like small animals very much, don't you?"
"No wonder you don't want to take action against that monster!"
"In your eyes, are animals, monsters, etc. more important than humans?"
"Is your mind a little abnormal?"
…
Xiao Xiao did not stop the little white fox from "attacking" the old man this time.
After all, he didn't want to talk to the old man anymore.
