Before this, Gungun would never have felt any kind of guilt.
It knew the law of the jungle too well.
However, after interacting with Xia Muqing for a few days, Gungun started to be more empathetic.
There was some pity that it had never felt before.
Xia Muqing learned her medical knowledge from her master in her previous life.
Back then, she had clearly learned about medical skills, but ultimately she became most knowledgeable about poisons.
And the old man was furious with her.
Xia Muqing had deliberately tried to infuriate her master. Her medical skills were naturally top-notch too.
Xia Muqing poked a few needles around the green snake’s eyes.
She wanted to use her energy to force the blood clots out. But when she tried doing that, she realized that after she had changed her body, she could no longer channel her energy.
She had no choice but to squeeze the blood clots out bit by bit.
It took a lot of effort for her to remove all the blood clots.
Xia Muqing was sweating profusely as she panted.
She made up her mind to train her body so that she could recover her internal energy as soon as possible.
She patted the head of the green snake whose eyes were still closed, and looked as if it was determined to die.
The green snake moved a little as it opened its eyes under Xia Muqing’s persistent patting on its head.
The darkness around its large eyes had disappeared, leaving only the wounds.
The green snake realized that it could see.
Ssss—
The green snake hissed excitedly.
Gungun rushed over and circled the green snake a few times in surprise.
When it realized that the green snake had regained its sight, it gestured at Xia Muqing.
Xia Muqing smiled. “It’s just a minor surgery. You don’t have to be so excited.”
When the green snake heard Xia Muqing’s voice, it knew that she had saved its life although it couldn’t understand her.
It nodded its heavy head at Xia Muqing to express its gratitude.
Xia Muqing flashed a smile.
The green snake remembered its wife and communicated with Gungun before slithering forward.
Gungun also brought Xia Muqing along.
The green snake felt that Xia Muqing’s medical skills were brilliant. Perhaps she might be able to help its wife.
To the green snake, Xia Muqing was like a deity.
They journeyed all the way to a hidden spot behind some rocks.
The green snake carefully observed its surroundings. After finding no suspicious people or beasts, it opened a hole underground.
Most of the animals lived in caves.
For the sake of its wife, the green snake had always lived underground.
And because of its carefulness, its heavily injured wife had survived for a hundred years.
Xia Muqing didn’t know what the green snake was doing and followed it curiously.
Gungun laid on Xia Muqing’s shoulder.
The cave’s entrance was very narrow, and it could barely accommodate the snake’s body.
Xia Muqing entered easily.
After entering the cave, the space inside was huge.
The entire cave was empty. One could only see a stone bed with a white snake coiled on it.
The white snake was slightly smaller than the green snake.
Hearing sounds, the white snake gently raised its head.
The green snake quickly slithered over and hugged the white snake.
After a long while, the green snake finally remembered Xia Muqing and Gungun.
Ssss—
The green snake introduced Xia Muqing to the white snake.
The white snake looked at Xia Muqing curiously.
After living in the cave for a century, the white snake had a pure heart and it didn’t have any hostility towards a stranger like Xia Muqing.
Xia Muqing smiled gently at it. The snakes reminded Xia Muqing of her good friends, the White Tiger couple in her previous life.
They were also a loving couple.
Xia Muqing could tell at a glance that the white snake’s body was riddled with holes and it was extremely weak.
To be able to stay alive for a hundred years was already a miracle.
The green snake took out the lotus and split it into two halves. After giving half to Xia Muqing, it gave the other half to the white snake.
“Wait, the white snake can’t eat the lotus in this way.”
Squeak squeak squeak—
Xia Muqing said it in a hurry.. Gungun didn’t need any instructions and swiftly translated for Xia Muqing.
