Inside the cave, it is dark and damp.
Gu Junlin was squatting on the ground, setting up two bonfires. One was grilling beef legs, and the other was an iron pot simmering fish soup.
The warm firelight dispelled the darkness in the cave and added a touch of warmth.
"Sister Yingying, you finally woke up!"
The cave was extremely quiet, with only the sound of burning flames. Therefore, Gu Junlin could clearly hear Bai Yingying's subtle murmur just now.
He quickly took a few steps back and placed the back of her head on his lap with a familiarity. His eyes were partly excited and partly concerned:
"It's okay. There's no way a mere snake venom could harm you. You'll be fine in a few days."
"Is that so..." Bai Yingying's dark purple lips were slightly open and she said weakly.
Gu Junlin nodded heavily: "Well, everything will be fine."
Even so, there was lingering worry in his eyes. Bai Yingying had been in a coma for seven days since the battle with the ancient beast.
For her in her heyday, snake venom was easily expelled and was far less dangerous than fatal. But at that time, her spiritual energy was so exhausted that she had no resistance at all. The poison injected into her body invaded her internal organs without any hindrance and penetrated deep into the bone marrow!
These days, although he has used various methods to detoxify it, the effect is very little.
Bai Yingying sniffed her small nose and frowned slightly: "Young landlord, where is this place? There is a rotten smell of dirty soil. It smells so bad that I feel like vomiting..."
"This is the lair of that ancient beast." Gu Junlin explained.
The virgin forest is extremely dangerous. Without Bai Yingying's protection, he would not dare to walk around at will. This is the safest place he can think of.
The ancient vicious snake likes to hide its aura, so even if it falls, the vicious beasts in the periphery who are familiar with it will not dare to approach rashly, for fear that it will hide in the dark and launch a sneak attack.
And those Dao fruits are the bait that lures other ferocious beasts to take the bait. People die for wealth and birds die for food. Fierce beasts are no exception. Dao fruits can transform ordinary ferocious beasts into ancient exotic beasts. Therefore, there are often more tyrannical beasts. Even though we know there is danger, we still have to take the risk.
Now that there is no Dao Fruit, the surrounding ferocious beasts have no reason to venture here. This place is considered one of the safest places in the virgin forest.
As for why there is a strange smell, in addition to the peculiar smell of the snake cave itself, it is more because the ancient beast does not eat meat, but only sucks essence and blood. Before they moved in, a large number of mummies accumulated in the cave, and the corpses smelled bad. Very strong flavor.
What Bai Yingying smelled was the processed smell. Gu Junlin thought that the strange smell was gone, but now he realized that he was used to it.
"Sorry for delaying your business, young poster..." Bai Yingying was silent for a moment and said apologetically.
"It's okay. It's hard to say whether I have what I asked for." Gu Junlin shook his head slightly and subconsciously rubbed her cheeks, which had lost some weight but were still chubby: "Relax and recover, don't think too much."
Bai Yingying's eyes flickered, feeling the warm touch on her face. Without saying anything, she responded softly with a nasal voice, then closed her eyes and rested quietly on his leg.
She felt an inexplicable sense of security in her heart. She didn't know whether it was because of Gu Junlin's existence or because she instinctively believed that as the heroine in a tragic novel, she would not die so hastily. It was her duty to live and endure the torment of emotions. ending.
Gu Junlin kneaded Bai Yingying's tender and fleshy little face, his eyes were lost in thought and his thoughts were far away.
In a few hours, it will be the 15th.
In a daze, he saw his master's anxious and angry look, and he couldn't help but be prepared to be yelled at and educated with sticks after he left.
Of course, the premise is that he can get out alive.
Now he no longer dares to hope that he can find a treasure to help his master escape from trouble. He just hopes that Bai Yingying can be safe and nothing happens.
Sister Feiyan calls Sister Yingying, but her behavior is full of doting. Letting Bai Yingying follow him is a protection for him and a trust in him. Therefore, he must keep Bai Yingying intact. Take it out!
Thinking of this, Gu Junli lowered his head and looked at the girl who was curled up like a cat. Yes, such a simple and lovely girl, who could not love and spoil her?
After getting along for a short time, he has become like Sister Feiyan. He calls her Sister Yingying, but in fact he takes care of her as a younger sister.
In addition to her strong fighting power, Bai Yingying is as pure as a piece of white paper, as if she has never been in contact with the outside world. No matter what he says, she will believe it unconditionally...
In order to avoid any accidents, he has made preparations to stay here all the time. With Bai Yingying's current state, once the two of them step out of the territory of the ancient beasts, they will definitely die!
When the Immortal Ancient Ruins are closed, they will automatically expel the living outsiders. Gu Junlin has no other thoughts. He just hopes that this day will come soon. The old man who hosted the Tianjiao Banquet said that the time for the ruins to be opened can be as short as three months or as long as Then one year.
Time passes slowly.
The water in the iron pot began to boil, and a burst of fragrance came over.
The girl who fell asleep at some point had her taste buds aroused by the aroma, and her stomach growled. She blushed, buried her head in Gu Junlin's lap, and said in a low voice: "Young Master, I'm hungry..."
Gu Junlin glanced at the fish soup, then touched her head and said softly, "It's not yet cooked yet, please wait a moment."
"Well..." Bai Yingying blushed to her ears.
Even though she looks easy to bully, with her round head and chubby little face, it is easy for people to overlook her fighting power. They can't help but want to touch and knead her, but in the hidden killing organization, no one of the opposite sex dares to do so. Do this to her.
After all, she is the descendant of the White Tiger Envoy, and her father, as the White Tiger Envoy, is also famous as a calf protector. If a man comes even one meter closer to her, his legs will be broken!
Euphemistically called his baby daughter, she is an angel in heaven, holy and flawless, and any ordinary person of the opposite sex will pollute her breath if she comes even one meter closer!
Thanks to her father, she has yet to meet her own male protagonist!
The temperature on her face subsided a little. Bai Yingying secretly glanced at Gu Junlin. From her position, she could only see the slightly raised Adam's apple and the perfectly curved jaw. Every part of it was beautiful and charming...
Before she fell into coma, the two of them had never had any physical contact. How come when she woke up, the young poster was so skilled at touching her head and rubbing her face? It's so natural...
Had she been unconscious for a long time, during which time the young poster got used to touching her?
Thinking of this, Bai Yingying's heart began to pound. Could it be that her story was finally about to begin?
The heroine was poisoned and dying, and there were dangers outside. In order to protect her, the noble and handsome hero could only hide in a narrow snake hole. Even though his white clothes were stained with mud, and even though he had severe mysophobia, he still did not complain at all, but was extremely gentle, attentive and considerate. .
In the dark cave, they were the only ones dependent on each other, and their feelings quickly rose.
But should she be more reserved? Protest against the young poster's behavior of casually touching his head and pinching his face? After all, the two of them had only known each other for a short time...
Bai Yingying was thinking about it when she saw Gu Junlin reaching out to stir the fish soup with a spoon. After mincing all the fish meat, he took a spoonful and put it into his mouth to taste.
Her eyes widened. Could it be that the next scene in the book is the mouth-to-mouth feeding of medicine? Otherwise, why would the young poster mince the meat?
However, the relationship between them is not that good yet, right? I think should not be!
