However, Huang did not respond. No matter how Aesop hit it, the conch seemed to be dead.

Several people looked at each other and suddenly felt uneasy.

No way, this place... can it even block Huang's signal?

At that moment, everyone felt a little desperate, as if they were trapped on an isolated island where they could not escape or contact the outside world and could only wait to die.

But Aesop did not give up. He stared at the conch for a long time, and then...

He gently extended his tongue and licked the inside of the conch.

Then, everyone noticed that the conch was turning red and warm at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Accompanied by Huang's murderous tone.

"Aesop!"

"you wanna die!"

225 Snow Fox Girl opened her eyes

Aesop's actions once again shocked everyone present.

Even though they have understood countless times that this guy is a ruthless person, they are still shocked every time by how completely inhuman he is. At the same time, they regret in their hearts why, after so long, they still haven't been able to grasp Aesop's bottom line.

But this time it was a matter of life and death, not just the lives of others, but also their own lives, so they all chose to ignore it, and at the same time were glad that Aesop still found a way to wake Miss Huang up.

And Aesop seemed to have anticipated Huang's response, and even guessed how she would respond, so she took away the magic conch in advance before Huang responded, and was not intimidated by the cursed roar.

"We've encountered an emergency." Aesop ignored Huang's fury and explained the current situation seriously. Then he said, "So, we need your help."

"Is this how you ask for help?!" Huang said, "I've never seen you beg for help in such an arrogant way!"

To be honest, Huang's temper is pretty good.

After all, if she had a bad temper, she wouldn't have been able to stay alone in an underground cave for thousands of years... You know, there, even if she wanted to find someone, no, a living creature to get angry at, she wouldn't be able to find anyone, so she had to have a good temper. But even the best temper would be ruined by Aesop. Now Huang regretted not letting Aesop kill her when she was underground!

Hmm... killing him seems a bit excessive.

Why wasn’t his little head broken?

Ah, that seems a bit too much!

Why don't you reject this guy's magical conch connection?!

Well, but then I'd be alone again.

After struggling for a long time, Huang's final regret degenerated to the level of "Why didn't you give him a warning?"

Huang was even more angry. She was angry at herself and Aesop, so she said to Aesop in a very bad mood: "I don't know, I don't know, I don't understand. If you ask again, I will commit suicide!"

Aesop was very surprised: "Really?"

"of course it's true!"

"But didn't I ask again?"

Huang was stunned for a long time before he realized what Aesop meant. He became even more angry: "Aesop! Do you really want to die?"

"No." Aesop shook his head, "I just want to liven up the atmosphere."

"You..." Huang was so angry that her whole body was shaking, and her chest was heaving. She really felt that she was about to be mad at Aesop, but she also understood that it was not only meaningless to continue to be angry with Aesop, but it would only hurt herself. So she tried to calm herself down, and then said to Aesop, "I can tell you something, but you have to give something."

"I understand." Aesop nodded. "That's what the history books say. If you want to trade with a mythical creature, you must be prepared for it to take something from you."

"...Where did you get these weird books?" Huang said, "But it's good that you can understand it this way. Then you know what I want to say, right? How many times do you come to see me every day!"

Huang spoke out his words almost word by word.

Aesop thought for a moment and asked, "A little more?"

"Reduce it a little bit! You idiot!" Huang roared again, "If you continue to harass me every day regardless of the occasion, time, or method, I will really kill you!"

Aesop said, "Since you are so annoying, I will never talk to you again."

Huang suddenly choked, and then stammered, "Uh, well... if you insist on looking for me, it's not impossible, just be careful, just pay attention to the number of times."

Aesop nodded and agreed: "Okay."

Huang finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then, as if suddenly remembering something, he asked cautiously, "Wait, is there anyone else with you?"

Aesop looked around at Stank and the others who were trying hard to keep their expressions unchanged, nodded again, and answered honestly, "Yes, quite a lot."

Huang on the other side was silent for a while, and then he slowly said: "I really do want to kill you after all."

After struggling for most of the day, Huang was a little exhausted and didn't want to argue with Aesop about this matter anymore, so he asked Aesop about the situation in detail. After listening to Aesop's narration, Huang fell into deep thought.

Aesop asked, "Do you have any ideas?"

"Yes," Huang said. "Putting aside your current situation, what I want to know more is... why do you keep going to those strange places, always looking for those creatures that are hailed as mythical creatures."

After Huang asked the question, she immediately continued the conversation without waiting for Aesop to answer, because she knew that if this topic continued, it would basically come back to her.

"Honestly, even though you think I should know, I don't really know much," Huang said. "I've been underground for so many years, and my ancestors have never left. I know very little about the other creatures in this world that you also hailed as mythical creatures. Just like the forest grandmother you went to see some time ago, I didn't even know she existed, and she obviously didn't know who I was. So, if you insist on asking, I can only give you some experience based on my own situation."

Aesop didn't say anything and just listened attentively.

"From your description, that so-called 'evil wind' does indeed resemble a curse. It makes sense that you inferred from this that there are creatures similar to me in that place," Huang said. "My curse accelerates the death of all creatures that look directly at me, and His curse should have a similar effect. You'll need to observe the details. But what I'm trying to say is that curses are uncontrollable, just like I have no way of stopping the curse. The most I can do is hide underground and reduce its scope. I think He should do the same, locking the uncontrollable curse within the confines of the snowfield... or even smaller."

Aesop said, "But now it has leaked."

"...Leaked? Hmm, that's a pretty accurate word you used," Huang said. "From your description, the reason the deepest part of the snowfield is off-limits to outsiders is probably because of this evil wind. But now, the evil wind's ravages have expanded, spreading from the deepest part to the entire snowfield. Of course, it's also possible that it's mutated, from harmless to harmful. The specific reason won't be revealed until you can discover the source of the curse."

Speaking of this, Huang felt a little uncomfortable again.

It felt like she'd said a lot, but also like she'd said nothing at all, like it was all just nonsense. She was afraid that Aesop might break his promise to her because she hadn't given him enough information, so she quickly added, "But this situation at least explains one thing."

"what?"

"That mythical creature in the snowfield is definitely not in good condition," Huang replied.

Hearing Huang say this, before Aesop could respond, Stank at the side couldn't help but speak first: "No way, is she going to die like the Forest Grandmother... I mean, is she going to fall?"

After all, there are descendants of the Snow Plains here, so Stank feels that he should be more careful with his choice of words.

Huang also heard what Stank said and replied, "That's not the case. If a mythical creature's lifespan is nearing its end, the curse's effects should be weakened... Just like your elderly humans, how can they be so full of life when they're about to die?"

"...Isn't there a saying about a last gasp of life?"

"What?" Huang had obviously never heard of such a statement. "Anyway, my ancestors, when their lifespans were nearing the end, the curse would quickly weaken, eventually reaching a point where people outside could barely accept it. Only then would they leave the underground and give birth to newborns outside. That's why I was born outside the underground. I didn't need to return to the underground until I grew up."

Aesop nodded slightly: "Is that so? Then I understand... I have one last question."

"You said."

"Which is stronger, your curse or the curse of Him in the snowfield?" Aesop asked. "What will happen if I infuse your curse into a creature cursed by Him in the snowfield?"

Aesop's words made Huang's brain crash.

She was stunned for a long time before she understood what Aesop was talking about. After a long pause, she managed to utter, "You are truly a genius! What on earth is going on in your head? How can one curse overpower another? Shouldn't the two be superimposed on each other?"

Aesop asked, "But what if the two curses conflict with each other? For example, if one curse causes blood loss and the other causes blood recovery, and the two curses overlap, will the person cursed with both blood loss or blood recovery?"

phoenix:"……"

Everyone was silent, not just Huang, but everyone else present, even the penguin sisters who knew nothing about it and felt confused listening to the conversation between the two, were also deeply shocked by Aesop's brain.

"I... don't know..." Huang took several deep breaths and managed to maintain his composure. "Anyway, the person you want to save is in a very bad condition, right? You can just treat him as a corpse. But here's the problem. My curse doesn't bring the dead back to life. Even if you cast my curse on the person cursed by Him in the snowfield, I don't think she will wake up immediately."

"It's okay." Aesop said confidently, "I have other treasures."

Huang no longer wanted to talk to Aesop. She felt that if she continued talking, her three views would collapse, so she said, "It's up to you," and quickly cut off the connection.

Seeing that Huang had "gone offline", the others gathered around and asked Aesop what he wanted to do.

Aesop took out the power of nature he had obtained from the forest grandmother and said, "Don't you have this?"

Stank frowned slightly. "Isn't this thing for growing flowers? What are you going to do..."

Before he could even ask, Aesop walked straight to the snow fox girl who had been dug out, and then in front of everyone, he stuffed the power of nature... into the snow fox girl's body.

Everyone's eyes widened.

"Fuck Aesop! You're blaspheming!"

Several people were about to rush up and execute Aesop.

But the next second, they saw the snow fox girl open her eyes.

After February 26th, I will never again call you a delinquent.

F-f-f-f-f-! Alive, alive?!

When the people who were about to step forward to condemn Aesop suddenly discovered that the snow fox girl had opened her eyes, their hearts and lungs almost stopped.

What kind of fucking way is this to save someone? Just stabbing them like that?!

And he even managed to survive?!

The scene before them made the group feel that their already shaky worldview had suffered another huge shock. After all, ever since they met Aesop, their worldview had been like the pendulum in a clock, and it was the kind of pendulum with an accelerated spring, jumping back and forth repeatedly and wildly.

The penguin sisters were also shocked by this action. They kept swallowing the saliva stuck in their throats, thinking that the outsiders really knew how to play. At the same time, they covered their buttocks at the same time, as if they were the ones being stabbed.

The fox girl didn't immediately jump up and down after opening her eyes. Instead, she stared blankly at the ceiling, her dazed look as if she had only woken up physically, but not mentally. But when a group of people gathered around her and waited for her for a while, she finally blinked, barely "coming back to life" and finally able to speak.

But perhaps because she hadn't spoken for half a year, she had almost no strength and was very weak, so she could only utter one word at a time.

"Where... am I..."

Aesop replied, "You are here."

What a nonsense.

The Snow Fox Lady blinked hard again, and then uttered one word again: "It hurts."

"Where does it hurt?"

"Fart..." The Snow Fox Girl said with effort, "Fart, butt."

Aesop looked down, then pulled out the force of nature: "It doesn't hurt now, does it?"

The snow fox girl opened her eyes wide and opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but after waiting for a long time, she finally cried out "Ah".

Aesop realized: "So it's yelling."

"Fuck you, be a human being!" Stank was shocked. "Why don't you put it back in?"

Aesop pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, "That makes sense."

And then stuffed it back in.

Stank, Bruce, Ganqiu: "..."

The Snow Fox Girl blinked again and cried out in pain again, even with a hint of crying in her voice, "Ah".

Finally, several people couldn't bear it any longer and were about to push Aesop away when they heard Aesop say, "So that's how it is. The power of nature is still continuously providing her with vitality."

"……what?"

"Haven't you noticed?" Aesop pointed at the Force of Nature and said, "When she has this thing on her, her mental state is obviously better. Even her screams are more energetic. But if she doesn't have it, her body will return to its weak state. There's even a chance that she will be cursed and frozen again."

Several people were stunned by Aesop's summary.

Stank said, "You came to this conclusion after just two stabs?"

"Of course." Aesop nodded, and then asked in a slightly surprised tone, "What else? Do you think I just stabbed randomly?"

Stank: "..."

If it were you, no one would be surprised by what you did, okay?

Just as Aesop discovered, after "connecting" to the power of nature, the Snow Fox Girl's spirit began to recover rapidly. Soon, two blushes appeared on her white face, and she was naturally completely "alive".

Although her butt was still painful, after listening to the conversation between several people, the Snow Fox Girl realized that this was the only way to survive, so she stopped complaining.

"What's wrong with me?" The Snow Fox Lady covered her head in pain and said, "I remember I was looking for food when I was blown away by a demonic wind. I didn't find shelter in time, and in the end...why did I wake up?"

"Because we are here." Aesop asked, "What is your name?"

The Snow Fox Girl replied, "My name is Shirley."

"Oh, Shirley." Aesop patted Shirley's... ears. He didn't know why, but he thought he had no interest in orc girls, but now he found Shirley's furry ears very attractive. "Since you know you're cursed... being blown by that wind and frozen is a curse. That's easy to understand. We're now using another curse to counter your original curse. It seems to be working, but it still requires experimentation. Are you willing to cooperate?"
