C42 Encounter

His green hair swayed in the water like fluffy and dense aquatic plants. Her eyes were big and deep, and her entire body was emitting a green glow. The light that shone on her was like the feeling of being exposed to the sun in winter.

But because of this, Wen Que couldn't clearly see her entire body's appearance, and didn't know how old she actually was.

Wen Que was a little dazed.

"Cat …" Although he did not open her mouth, Wen Que knew that it was her. She smiled at him, causing his heart to race.

"Who are you? How do you know me?" Wen Que asked in a daze, completely forgetting that he was in the water. When he spoke, he only heard the gurgling sound of water, and a string of bubbles appeared in front of him, floating upwards.

"Cat …" She was still smiling as she continued to call out Wen Que's nickname.

Suddenly, Wen Que felt that her face was a little familiar, as if he had seen his somewhere before.

She stuck out her tongue.

It was a forked snake's tongue, red, moving up and down rhythmically in front of his eyes.

Wen Que did not move, nor did he feel fear and astonishment, he felt that it was natural, as though there was something wrong with her mouth, perhaps it was a human's tongue.

Even though she was in the water, she still felt the wetness. The place she touched him felt a little chilly, like when the snow was about to turn bright, a drop of ice water that had been melted on the mountain stream ice fell on her cheek.

This feeling was very familiar.

Wen Que suddenly remembered who she was and blurted out, "You're Qing Tong!" The words left his mouth and turned into a string of bubbling bubbles.

Wen Que remembered that he had indeed seen her before. At that time, he was still very young, but one night when he was lying on the bed, he was woken up by her call. When he opened his eyes, he saw her in front of the window, letting him follow her. He didn't want to go home. He wanted to leave with Qing Tong, but she had no other choice. He could only reluctantly watch on.

She'd been looking for a chance to take me away, but she'd failed every time.

She had told him many things, told him her name, but the memories seemed to have come from a distant past, forgotten by him.

She nodded vigorously, as if she could hear me clearly, and was a little excited. She stirred, stirred the water.

Wen Que saw the entire body of the child. Her upper body was human, her lower body a snake. The green gemstone that she had seen before was because of her entrenched body, and now, Wen Que was stepping on top of her snake. Her upper body was as long as a person's body, but the snake's body was coiled around so that it was unknown just how long it was.

"Cat …" She called again, but no more words came out.

The young lad's expression became sad, and the green light around his body became brighter and brighter, dazzling and piercing like a sun, causing Wen Que to be unable to open his eyes.

Wen Que felt that someone was pinching his nose, some kind of warm stuff was sticking to his lips, blowing towards him.

Wen Que violently coughed as he struggled to open his eyes. He saw a figure half squatting with both hands pressed on his chest. The surroundings gradually became clearer. Wooden walls, a roof, scattered wooden planks …

He was lying in a cabin. What was going on?

Wen Que spat out a few mouthfuls of water, and then rolled over and got up. His legs gave way and he plopped back down on the ground.

When he raised his head again, he found that the person who had given him the artificial respiration was actually an unfamiliar woman wearing thick clothes. Her hair was dark and beautiful, and she was about the same age as him, around sixteen or seventeen years old. Beside him was a pure white cat. It was licking its front paws with its head down. It didn't even look up at him.

When he thought about their intimate contact just now, Wen Que could not help but blush. Suddenly, he realized that he was only wearing a pair of underpants, and he immediately hugged his chest to hide, but after covering this, he was exposed again. He was extremely embarrassed for a moment.

"We're both men, you don't have to be ashamed." Chu Chi giggled as he stared at Wen Que.

Hearing Chu Chi's hoarse male voice, Wen Que became even more embarrassed, "You … "Are you a man?"

"Must it be a woman with long hair?" Chu Chi understood that the other party had poor judgement, and treated him as a woman, and snorted lightly.

"What did you just do to me!" Wen Que coughed a few times before looking carefully at Chu Chi again. Although he had long hair, his eyebrows were dark and his Adam's apple could be seen. He really was a man.

"I've saved you. "I saw you fall into the water. Luckily, I was able to swim well, so I managed to fish you up." Chu Chi did not mind, "No need to thank me, it was all a simple task."

Who wants to thank you?" Wen Que was a little dazed for a moment. Falling into the pool of water must have been real, but, what happened in the water, was it a dream or a reality?

Chu Chi shrugged his shoulders and returned back to the fire to roast.

"When you saved me, did you see anything underwater?" Wen Que couldn't help but ask Chu Chi.

Chu Chi looked at him suspiciously, "What's underwater? All I saw was you drowning and struggling in the pool. "

"Really?" Wen Que was a little disappointed.

"Did you see something?" Seeing that, Chu Chi could not help but become curious. He thought to himself, could it be that there really is a dirty thing in that pond that wants to take the life of the youth in front of me?

"No …" Wen Que vaguely shook his head and quickly changed the topic, "Who are you, where did you come from?"

Just as Chu Chi wanted to ask the other party about the matter, he slowed down his tone a bit, announced the name, and asked again, "Is this the territory of the Wen Jia Village?"

Wen Que looked at him warily, "Why are you looking for Wen Jia Village?"

"Looks like I found the right place." Chu Chi could see some clues from his expression, and revealed a happy expression, "I'm looking for someone."

"To whom?" Wen Que's gaze swept the place.

Chu Chi scratched his head, "I don't know what his name is."

"You don't even know his name, how can you find him?" Wen Que scoffed, "You should know about men and women right? How tall they are and what do they look like. I know everyone in the village, maybe I do. "

"Not from your village, but from outside. If I see it, I will naturally know. " Chu Chi did not lie, because Flower Girl was good at camouflage and would not easily show her true name and face. If she wanted to find him, she could only rely on the other party's ability to judge. But she could not explain this to Wen Que.

He had already heard from the Doctor Gao that the Flower Girl was here for the Wen Jia Village Demon Hunt, so he should have already started moving in the village. As long as he entered the village, it shouldn't be hard to find him.

"Outside?" Wen Que frowned, he shook his head and said, "Recently, there have been no outsiders in the village."

"Whatever. Just bring me into the village first." Chu Chi thought that it was highly likely that the Flower Girl would impersonate herself as someone from the same village. Since she might not even be considered as an outsider, he didn't want to continue tangling with Wen Que on this issue.

"My name is Wen Que." Wen Que introduced himself, then said, "You can follow me back to the village first, but just say that you are my classmate, so that the villagers won't see you appear out of nowhere and ask you too many questions."

Although Wen Que did not have a good impression of Chu Chi, but considering that Chu Chi saved him from the water just now, he wanted to repay this favor.

"It was clearly you who randomly appeared, alright?" Chu Chi was very dissatisfied with Wen Que's wording.

The Wen Jia Village was remote, and only one person could walk on the small road leading to the village. When the sky turned dark, they got lost, and the crow who was not very clear led the way, which made things worse. There was nothing for him to do but to sleep in a small hut near the tower for the night, and was woken up by noise coming from outside the house early in the morning, which allowed him to save Wen Que.

As if a crow knew of Chu Chi's complaints, on the stone tower opposite of the small cabin, a caw sounded out.

"No wonder the crows are so unlucky this early in the morning!" Wen Que walked to the door, looked at the crow, picked up a stone and threw it at the crow to chase it away. The raven flapped its wings and flew away.
