Xiao Xuanye recognized the Crane-tail Orchid and remembered Su Luan's previous warning: There are usually a large number of poisonous insects living next to the Crane-tail Orchid, so be careful.
He tightened his grip on the stick he was using to open the way. At this moment, he heard Sheng Nuan chuckle.
"Man, do you like what you see?"
Xiao Xuanye frowned and turned his head, and found that the corners of Sheng Nuan's mouth were crooked, and she looked at him with a silly and proud look: "If you want to, do it yourself!"
After Sheng Nuan finished speaking her lines, she felt numb and wanted to find a crack in the ground to bury herself... Then she saw Xiao Xuanye looked at her with a stupid look, and then raised his foot to kick out a stone.
The stone fell into the grass next to the crane tail orchid, and in the next moment, several small black snakes as thick as chopsticks swished out and attacked Xiao Xuanye.
It's an arrow snake, highly venomous and has amazing bounce.
Xiao Xuanye's expression was focused, and he flew the wooden stick and knocked away the arrow snakes one by one. When the grass became quiet, he kicked another stone over.
When there was no response, he paused and slowly approached.
But at this moment, a huge black toad suddenly jumped up and rushed towards him.
Sheng Nuan quickly reminded: "Be careful."
The wooden stick in Xiao Xuanye's hand flew out suddenly, nailing the toad straight to the ground... But at this moment, the soil in that area was shaken by the force of the stick, and then collapsed suddenly.
The ground below had been hollowed out, and after it collapsed to reveal the entrance of the cave, a hissing sound could be heard...it turned out to be a huge snake cave.
The Crane-tail Orchid was growing on the edge of the snake cave, and the soil kept sliding. The next moment, the flower suddenly slid down to the snake cave.
Xiao Xuanye's expression suddenly changed, and he subconsciously wanted to step forward, but as soon as he took a step forward, he was grabbed by Sheng Nuan.
"You don't want your life?"
He gritted his teeth and was about to throw her away, but at this moment, he was pushed back, and then he was stunned to see Sheng Nuan step forward and jump directly into the snake cave.
Xiao Xuanye suddenly froze there...
There was silence all around, except for the hissing sound from the snake cave below that suddenly became louder.
Xiao Xuanye suddenly came to his senses and took a few steps forward towards the snake cave. His voice was stiff: "Sheng Nuan..."
Before he finished speaking, a figure suddenly jumped up from the snake cave and flew down in front of him.
"Ah, second young master, are you worried about me? Tsk... I thought you had no conscience at all."
Sheng Nuan gestured with her little finger: "It turns out there are still a few left."
Xiao Xuanye's expression suddenly turned cold, he looked at her with an indifferent expression, and turned around without saying a word.
"Hey, why are you so embarrassed again? You are a bit capricious. Are you menopausal?"
Sheng Nuan followed with a smile.
Xiao Xuanye stopped suddenly, turned around and gritted his teeth: "Shut up."
Sheng Nuan shrugged: "Okay..."
At this moment, without any warning, she stretched out her hand behind her back, and in her hand was the crane tail orchid.
"If you don't want me to talk, do you still want this?"
Xiao Xuanye was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at the white flower that represented his vitality, and then his eyes accidentally saw the back of Sheng Nuan's hand that was scratched and bleeding.
Sheng Nuan raised her eyebrows: "Do you want it? If not, I'll spit..."
Xiao Xuanye's face darkened, and he stretched out his hand to grab it, but in the next moment, Sheng Nuan was thrown to the ground by his force.
Xiao Xuanye froze slightly, and then he saw a bloody wound on Sheng Nuan's calf, which should have been scratched by a sharp stone.
His expression was a little stiff, and he stood silently.
"Tsk, I just said you have some conscience, but it turns out I was wrong...you are still the white-eyed wolf."
Sheng Nuan limped to a stone far away from the snake cave and sat down. With her back to Xiao Xuanye, she took off her shoes and socks to bandage the wound while sighing.
"I should have spat first if I had known..."
Xiao Xuanye's face was tense, he gritted his teeth and twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, unable to find a suitable expression.
Sheng Nuan simply bandaged the wound and secretly applied the medicine she bought from the space. It didn't hurt as soon as it was applied, but she still pretended to be limping when she stood up... It looked like she was doing the robbery for Xiao Xuan's night.
What the rest of my life will look like.
When they set off again, Xiao Xuanye silently walked in front to clear the way for her, and Sheng Nuan secretly clicked her tongue.
The two were walking one behind the other, and Sheng Nuan tentatively said, "Second Young Master, for the sake of me saving your life, how about we put aside our prejudices and have a good talk?"
Xiao Xuanye was walking in front and could not see his expression. After a moment, Sheng Nuan heard him ask coldly: "What are we talking about?"
Sheng Nuan cheered up, adjusted her expression, and tried to look very sincere.
"Let's start from the beginning... I know why you hate me and hate me. I did intend to get close to Prince Huai before, but my purpose was to let Prince Huai's Mansion take care of us along the way. If not, why should I get together and be beaten by them?
underestimate."
Her tone was earnest: "Second Young Master, I am actually just trying to protect you from arriving at Yanyunguan safely."
However, Xiao Xuanye didn't even look back and sneered: "Do you think I don't know that you were forced by the Sheng family to gain fame and reputation? How did you throw Dai Xiao and Bai Hua under your feet in public..."
The implication: You said you were trying to please Prince Huai's Mansion for me... would you be so kind?
Sheng Nuan sighed: "Second Young Master, there is no need to rush to doubt my intentions. What you said is also true. I admit that my desire to protect you is not out of love... I actually just want a letter of release from my wife."
Xiao Xuanye, who was walking in front, paused slightly and finally turned back.
Sheng Nuan looked at him with a magnanimous expression: "I was drugged and lost consciousness that day. It's true that I couldn't help you, but to be fair, the reason why I completely lost control at that time was to save you..."
Sheng Nuan said seriously: "I'm not trying to shirk, and I understand that you value your deceased brother's reputation very seriously. I just want to say that we are all victims, and I really want to make amends... I will do my best to escort you."
When we get to Yanyunguan Pass, Second Young Master, please give me a piece of paper to release your wife."
She said word by word: "You can also write a letter of divorce. Until then, I will have nothing to do with the Xiao family anymore. This not only makes up for my own mistakes, but also gives you the reputation of the Xiao family...how about it?"
Sheng Nuan's expression was magnanimous, and Xiao Xuanye looked at her quietly, flashing before his eyes the several times she had saved him.
She blocked the bandits for him. Even though she knew he wanted her to die, she still chased her to save her... And she just jumped down from the snake cave...
After a moment of silence, Xiao Xuanye said quietly: "Okay."
Sheng Nuan suddenly brightened up: "In that case, let's have a happy cooperation."
The customer service person reminded quietly: "Maybe he is still lying to you. He has lied to you several times."
Sheng Nuan smiled: "If he is not stupid enough, he will know that my proposal is the best solution."
"Let's go, I'll take you to meet your people." Sheng Nuan said.
Xiao Xuanye hummed and was about to take a step when he suddenly frowned.
There was a sweet and fishy feeling in his chest and abdomen without any warning, and then he coughed violently... and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
This is what Su Luan said is a sign of poisoning.
At first, when the poison appears, it will look like consumption, and the person who is poisoned will treat it as if it is consumption. By the time he realizes something is wrong, the poison has often entered the lungs.
Sheng Nuan was startled: "Hey, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao Xuanye's poisoning shouldn't have been so severe, but he was poisoned by snake venom before, which stimulated two strange poisons in his body.
He vomited a mouthful of blood, gritted his teeth and tremblingly took out the thumb-sized porcelain bottle from his waistband, poured out the pills and swallowed them along with the sweet blood in his throat.
At the last moment when his consciousness dissipated, what he saw was Sheng Nuan's confused look...
