Hutao looked at him with her chin in her hands, her silver hair hanging down to her ears, and her clean jawline looking particularly beautiful at this angle.
He frowned slightly, and his beautiful golden eyes looked at her feet without blinking.
Although this guy has always been good-looking, Hu Tao's usual out-of-the-box personality always made Hu Tao subconsciously ignore his beautiful appearance.
But then again.
Jiang Bai, who does one thing seriously, really has an indescribable charm.
"Fortunately, the wound is not deep and I didn't step on it, otherwise it would not be a cut, but a bloody hole..."
Probably because Sumeru has abundant grass elements, even the thorns are very offensive.
Even though it has withered and fallen into the burial of dead leaves, the sharp thorns can still easily cut through human skin.
Even the soles of feet with a thicker protective layer.
After Jiang Bai finished speaking, he saw that Hu Tao had not responded. He turned around and found that she was distracted.
He tickled the soles of her feet twice in amusement, "What are you thinking about? Are you so lost in thought?"
"I'm thinking of you."
"ah?"
Seeing Jiang Bai's confused look, Hu Tao chuckled, "Haha, I'm just teasing you."
Jiang Bai really had nothing to do with her, so he took out a bandage to bandage her wound.
"Does it hurt?"
Hu Tao frowned deliberately, "It hurts so much. I definitely won't be able to walk."
"Then I won't walk."
Jiang Bai washed her other foot clean and put on shoes and socks to avoid catching a cold.
Then he reached out and carried her on his back.
Hu Tao lay on Jiang Bai's back with peace of mind and hugged his neck.
"Are you still going to Shuitian Jungle?"
"Go, why don't you go?"
"There is water over there, so don't get your feet wet."
"It would be better if you don't go into the water..."
Jiang Bai's back is much more comfortable than the back of a beast of burden, and the softness and comfort are directly upgraded to a higher level.
The surrounding scenery remained unchanged. Hu Tao, who had been on his back for a while, blew into Jiang Bai's ear out of boredom.
Hot air sprayed on his ears. Jiang Bai shrank his neck and his ears turned red.
Hutao watched it interestingly, blowing on his left ear and then on his right ear, watching Jiang Bai shrinking his neck back and forth, having a great time.
"Hall Master~!"
Jiang Bai's voice was a bit gritted.
"Believe it or not, if you continue to brag, I will throw you down!"
Hutao grabbed both of his ears and said, "A little bit, I don't believe it!"
Jiang Bai: "..."
you win.
Jiang Bai accepted his fate and continued to carry her forward, trying to ignore her rebellion.
Hutao rubbed his ears, rubbed his face, and finally put her hands around his neck, resting her head on his shoulders and staring at his ears.
"Your ears get red so easily. I blow on them and they turn red."
As he spoke, he blew again in a chaotic manner.
Jiang Bai: (#`n)
It wasn't you, but you still have the nerve to say it!
Jiang Bai gritted his teeth, "Master, just wait for me..."
"What? You want to take revenge on me!"
Hu Tao looked at the red earlobe close at hand and bit it.
"hiss--"
"Huh, if you want to take revenge on me, there's no way."
"Master, are you a canine?"
"You are the canine, okay? Don't slander me."
Hutao rubbed his ears and said, "I just took a small bite. You can see there's no mark at all."
Is this a matter of lightness and weight?
Jiang Bai gritted his teeth.
He simply refused to leave and reached out to put down the walnut.
"What do you want to do? What do you want to do!"
Hu Tao wrapped her arms around his neck and her legs tightly wrapped around his waist, unable to survive.
"Get off here! If I don't bite you back today, I won't call you Jiang Bai!"
"Didn't I just bite you? Why are you so childish!"
"What's wrong with me being naive!"
"Rebellion! Rebellion!"
Half an hour later, Hutao covered her swollen lips and felt very annoyed.
It really hurts the enemy a thousand times and hurts oneself eight hundred.
But looking at the guy who had jumped into the lake to take a bath, she felt inexplicably happy.
Jiang Bai poked his head out of the cold lake water.
It was obvious that the culprit was on the shore.
Why is he always the one who needs to calm down?
hateful!
He was floating in the lake, too tired to move.
"Why did you suddenly jump into the lake? Come up quickly, be careful of catching a cold!"
Look, the culprit Fei Dan is not self-aware, and he is still fanning the flames on the shore, creating a strange atmosphere.
Jiang Bai was so angry that he hadn't calmed down yet and didn't want to go ashore.
Jiang Bai lowered his head to the water, preparing to find something else to distract his attention.
The water in the Water and Sky Jungle is quite deep, and huge tree roots are tangled under the water. Most of the fish turn a blind eye to him as an outsider, neither approaching nor staying away.
Jiang Bai dived into the water and found a box buried in the mud.
Po dragged the box out of the mud with some difficulty and opened it with the mentality of opening a treasure box. It turned out that there were some antique goods inside that he couldn't tell the value of.
He closed the box and swam to the shore, and emerged from the lake wet.
Hu Tao's attention was suddenly attracted by the box in his hand.
"What's this?"
"Found at the bottom of the lake."
Jiang Bai opened the box and showed her the contents.
"It seems to be some antiques, and I haven't found any information on them."
Hutao took out a bottle and asked Gudong to clean it, revealing the exquisitely carved patterns on the bottle.
Hutao has no research on Xumi antiques, but judging from the style, they should be quite expensive.
"No matter if they are antiques or not, if you sell them in town, it will be a windfall."
Hutao put her hands on her hips, "Humph, thank me. If it weren't for me, where would you have found this box of treasures?"
Jiang Bai's eyes suddenly turned resentful, and Hu Tao hugged his arms and subconsciously took two steps back.
"Hall Master, some revenge is not unavenged, it's because the time has not come yet."
Hutao looked up at the sky.
I don’t understand. She doesn’t understand.
"Go and change your clothes quickly. Don't catch a cold."
On a tree not far away, several mercenaries from the Gilded Brigade were sitting on the tree, watching the activities here from a distance.
"Boss, can you see if that box is the treasure we lost last year?"
The man who was called the boss carefully looked at the shape and pattern of the box with a telescope.
"That box looks a bit similar."
If I remember correctly, these were several boxes of goods they snatched from an antique dealer last year.
But there was a bit of confusion later and the box of goods was lost.
Did it actually end up in the lake?
"Third brother, you pretend to be a businessman who lost the goods and go negotiate with them to see if you can get the goods back."
"Boss, why don't you just grab it?"
"Didn't you see the Eye of God on that woman? It can be solved with civilized means, of course, with civilized means. Force is the last resort."
"Boss is indeed the boss. Although I don't quite understand what he said, I feel it's very powerful for no reason!"
"Stop talking nonsense and get to work."
