Just when it was extremely critical, a horse neighed above his head, high-pitched and loud.

An iron arm firmly grabbed her waist, lifted her into a hard and cold embrace, darkness enveloped her, and the crisp cedar breath wrapped her properly and protected her.

The black steed jumped out of the snake circle, and when it landed, its iron hooves trampled one or two snakes to pieces.

The steed breathed out heat and neighed anxiously from time to time.

"Hailwind, calm down!"

Xiao Chen patted the horse's buttocks, but suddenly saw three or four poisonous snakes biting it. With a wave of the long sword in his hand, he chopped the snakes into several pieces and fell off.

After finishing this action, he also snorted and covered his arms.

"Xiao Chen, are you okay?"

Shen Ruo hurriedly got out from under the cloak, and saw that there were marks of poisonous snake bites on the back of his arms and even on his thighs.

These wounds stung her eyes instantly, making her anxious and angry, "Are you stupid? Why are you rushing out..."

It's just that before she finished speaking, a heavy object was placed on her shoulders, and a faint breath brushed against her neck: "It's great that you're fine."

She had a heart attack, and said expressionlessly, "Even if you don't save me, I'll be fine."

"But seeing that scene, how can I care about these things?"

At that time, his heart was almost frightened, and even now his hands are still weak with lingering fear. If something happened to Shen Ruo, I can't imagine what he would do.

"...Okay, stop talking sweet words, I'll show you the injury."

Shen Ruo changed the topic in a twisted and blunt way, but the person leaning on her put his forehead on her shoulder, and smiled softly, her face was slightly red, "Stop laughing..."

She was slightly angry, when she was interrupted by another hoarse and resentful voice: "You two," said with almost gritted teeth, "do you think I don't exist?"

To actually treat her affectionately in front of her like no one else is around, it's really annoying!Under the hood of the black robe, a pair of red eyes burning with anger could be vaguely seen.

"If possible, I really hope that you never existed, so that so many innocent people would not be implicated."

Shen Ruo said coldly, and quickly cleaned the snake venom from Xiao Chen's wound. Fortunately, although these snakes are more poisonous than ordinary poisonous snakes, they are not like the poisonous blood on Ge Nanyi's body.

As long as there is time for treatment, no one can take someone away from her.

"Want to get rid of me?"

The person under the black robe smiled sinisterly, her eyes were red, and she said madly, "Impossible!"

"Life after life, I will never let you go, go die!"

She frantically shook the bell on her wrist, and the crisp ringing sound was endless, followed by a creepy hissing sound, like endless poisonous snakes pouring in from all directions.

"This time, none of you can escape!"

Accompanied by the shrill and hoarse shouts, the swarm of poisonous snakes swarmed up. Xiao Chen planned to repeat the same trick, protecting Shen Ruo in his arms, and rushed out on the horse, but his eyes were covered by a cool hand: "Don't be afraid!" , don't look at it either!"

"What are you going to do?" He asked, but actually stopped his movements.

In the darkness, he could even feel the premonition of chills on his back after being stared at by thousands of poisonous snakes.

Years of experience on the line of life and death made every part of his body screaming for danger and fighting back, but he clenched his fists and did nothing.

He believed her!

Almost at the moment when the stench from the poisonous snake hit his face, he felt that everything disappeared in an instant, he was slightly surprised, not knowing what happened, so he heard Ge Nanyi yelling in horror, "What did you do? Are you, are you a monster?"

Shen Ruo looked down at Ge Nanyi with calm and composed eyes: "You are the real monster now."

She originally meant that she disregarded human life, harmed innocent people, and was blinded by hatred to the humanity and conscience that a human being should have. However, Ge Nanyi mistakenly thought that she was talking about her face.

"Shut up! Do you think you're better than me? Isn't that ugly face of yours that's why you wear a veil all the time? Ha, I'm afraid you've never dared to let Xiao Chen see it. , as long as you show him your face, how could he still treat you like this..."

"I have seen."

Just as Ge Nanyi was screaming impotently and furiously, Xiao Chen's indifferent voice interrupted her.

"What did you say?"

She was taken aback for a moment, and then became manic again, "I don't believe it, you lied to me! How is that face, that face, possible? How is it possible? How can you not dislike her or dislike her?"

"Because I love her, no matter what she becomes, I can accept it!"

This flat voice seems to be the final ruthless trial of Ge Nanyi, and it is also the biggest mockery of her. She has done so much, paid so much, and even become what she is now, but in the end nothing is useless? ?
She is not reconciled!She is not reconciled! ! !
"Shut up! What if she becomes like me? Will you still love her?"

She pulled off the hood covering herself as if she was giving up on herself, and exposed her ugly, almost disgusting face in front of Xiao Chen. She smiled triumphantly and breathed heavily, "No way, you will definitely curse She is ugly, and then pushed her away, even wishing for her to die, so as not to stain my eyes..."

"will not."

Xiao Chen interrupted her words again with a plain sentence, even his gaze never left her face once, "Even if Shen Ruo really became like this, I will only hug her into my arms with great pity and comfort her." , feel sorry for her, and accompany her to find a cure, even if it can't be cured anymore, I will never give up on her."

"..."

Following Xiao Chen's firm words, a tear flowed from the only remaining intact eye.

For the first time, Ge Nanyi, who had been insanely obsessed, showed an unusually calm expression, as if he had completely given up.

"Ha, how ridiculous I am, longing for something that belongs to someone else."

"I regret it, it would be nice if I never met you!"

She took a step back, turned decisively and ran back.

Seeing her running away, Shen Ruo wanted to chase her subconsciously, but was stopped by Xiao Chen: "There is no need to chase her, she should not do evil again in the future... Hmm."

Shen Ruo looked at the direction Ge Nanyi was leaving, if she chased after her again, she might arouse her evil intentions again, thinking of this, Shen Ruo had no choice but to put the matter aside for now, turn her attention back to Xiao Chen, and start Silently continued to deal with the snake venom on his body.

"What I said just now," he paused, "was not to lie to Ge Nanyi."

"I know."

After Shen Ruo tied the last strap on his arm, she raised her eyes and looked into his eyes, "After all, you have already done this before."

She pressed his head down, and kissed him in the breeze of the mountain forest.
