Chapter 105 Burning
Chapter 105 Burning
Just as I was feeling depressed, the blue flame quickly went out. Only thick smoke rose. I hurried forward to try to light the fire, but it was too smoky. The thick smoke made me cry and snot.
An hour later, I was in a mess, like a beggar who hadn't slept for days. My hair was messy, there were black marks on my face, my eyes were red, and I was crying and having snot. My clothes that had been cut were covered in black dirt, like rags on a beggar's body.
No matter how hard I tried, it just wouldn't burn. I ran around for an hour, and it went out. In the end, there was not even a thick smoke, only wisps of light smoke rising slowly.
I sat on the ground in frustration. I just couldn't understand why I had never succeeded in building a fire when I came to this world and built it alone.
The animals not far away began to wake up, but they did not have the energy to leave. The first thing the man saw when he woke up was a young man sitting by a dying fire, sulking.
He couldn't help but think back to the past. It started from when he rescued the naughty little devil. Well, that's what the master called her. But she could be called that.
Since the second day of becoming an apprentice, there has been not a day that she has not been in trouble or on the way to getting into trouble.
"Haha" the man laughed lightly. Because he thought about the second day after becoming a disciple, when he went to look for this fifteen or sixteen-year-old junior sister. But there was no one in the house. Just when he was wondering, thick smoke was rising from the bamboo forest. He went over to take a look out of curiosity. He saw the little figure sitting there like this. In his hand, he was holding two strings of frogs on bamboo sticks and blowing the fire in a miserable manner.
My arrival startled the little girl. She turned around, revealing a dirty face and a puffy little mouth. She looked so cute and adorable that my heart softened at that moment.
"I'm hungry," these three gentle words almost made me want to commit suicide out of guilt. Because both my master and I are men, we can't cook. We have always eaten the fasting pills made by my master, which smell like feet. If all else fails, we can eat some wild fruits.
But now that he had this weak and fragile little junior sister, he forgot to prepare food for her.
From then on, I had one more thing to do, which was to cook porridge and roast game. This cooking lasted for two years.
But such a weak and cute little girl suddenly disappeared two years later.
"Xiao Luo," the man called softly.
I was sitting there feeling depressed when I heard someone calling me. I was stunned for a moment. Someone in this place knew me.
Growing up, I was dressed in men's clothes and only knew a few people, who were mostly my apprentices and junior brothers. But how did this man with deformed legs know my name? Who was he? Did he know me? Why didn't I know such a person?
Leng Yan's name suddenly appeared in my mind. I shook my head and couldn't believe that the handsome senior brother would become this dirty man who was carried on people's backs.
The man saw the figure but didn’t turn around, and said to himself, “Is it because I didn’t hear it, or is it not her?”
I looked back at the man. He didn't have the elegance of Leng Yan, but looked more experienced. I asked, "You woke up. It's strange. You weren't poisoned, right? Why did you wake up suddenly?"
“You are saving all the lives in this valley,” the man said.
"What's wrong with me?" I asked puzzled.
"Your silly look now reminds me of my naughty and cute junior sister. This snake dragon king spits out poison every month, which puts many small animals to sleep. Huanhuan in my arms has been sleeping for several years. But I never thought that the snake dragon king's poison has a fragrance. You saved us by burning it like this."
"I understand. You mean the only way to cure the snake dragon king's poison is to have the snake dragon king's bones." I said clearly.
I suddenly thought that it could be used as a knockout drug, and the effect would be just right. I also have the horn of the snake dragon king as an antidote.
