Chapter Thirty-Two: Rainy Night (Part One)

  "Xue Er!! She!!"

  Translation: "Snowy!! Snake!!"

  I don't know when Qin Jie Li fell behind, pointing at the black little snake less than a meter away from her in the grass, she was so scared that her face turned pale and white, and she forgot to retreat, only screaming.

  "Hiss......" The little black snake stuck out its tongue and made a sinister sound.

  Xiao Fengxue directly walked through the crowd to Qin Jiel's side, her white hand swiftly grasping at the snake with lightning speed.

  Everyone only felt a flash in their eyes, and they didn't even see the movement clearly. When they came back to their senses, that snow-white hand was already holding a black small snake, which was constantly twisting and turning, looking particularly frightening.

  Her index finger and thumb pinched its seven inches, with a slight force, the little black snake stiffened and stopped struggling, dead.

  "Don't be afraid, this snake is non-venomous." Xiao Fengxue explained to Qin Jieling, casually plucking a leaf and wrapping the snake in it before tossing it into her backpack. "It can also be used to make soup."

  After she finished speaking, she continued to walk forward, and the five people followed her in a daze, all thinking that it was unbelievable. The snake was killed by her with just one grab? Was it really dead? And they still wanted to keep it to make soup?

  My god! Is Xiao Feng Xue a girl? No! Is she human? Is she?

  Di Liang Xun gazed at her back, his deep eyes sinking even deeper. The courage and accuracy she had shown in catching the snake were definitely not something ordinary people possessed.

  "Xue Er, wait for me, I'll walk with you." Qin Jie Li ran up to walk alongside Xiao Feng Xue, as if this would make them safer.

  Her small face was still somewhat pale, after all, she was a princess who had been living in the castle since childhood, where would she have come into contact with snakes?

  Because of the appearance of this small black snake, everyone put away their leisurely expressions and started to hurry seriously on the road. Even Zhuang Yun, who had been talking the most along the way, also quieted down, apparently still having some lingering fear.

  The sky is gradually darkening, the air is getting colder, and the thunder on the horizon is starting to cheer.

  Xiao Feng suddenly stopped in his tracks, gazing up at the sky which was gradually darkening behind the tree leaves. He led the five of them to a flat open space.

  "It's almost seven now, let's set up camp here for today. Take out the tent from your backpack and set it up yourself, then quickly solve dinner, it might rain tonight."

  As soon as he finished speaking, he took out a tent from his backpack and threw it to the ground, starting to set up with swift movements.

  While others were just starting, she had already set up hers. Then it was Emperor Qing's turn, who slowly and steadily used his noble hands to set up the tent with neat and orderly movements, and soon finished. He sat down on a nearby rock.

  Xiao Fengxue felt the surprised gaze of everyone, shrugged his shoulders and said, "When I was studying in the US, our school often organized jungle activities. And, Lian Shao, you also help pick up some dry branches nearby, let's just boil some water and have instant noodles for dinner tonight."

  She started to pick up dry branches from the ground nearby, piling them up, and sat on a rock with an air of nobility like a royal prince. Emperor Ling looked at her serious expression and surprisingly listened to her, squatting down to pick up branches...

  "Hey! That Xiao something Fengxue, what's the big idea that we have to eat instant noodles tonight?! I'm not eating that stuff with no nutrition!"

  Zhuang Yun, who had been fiddling with the tent for a long time without making any progress, was already annoyed by this troublesome tent. When she heard the words "eat instant noodles", she suddenly got angry. Anyway, Lian hadn't looked at her all afternoon, and she didn't care about maintaining any image anymore, so her spoiled princess temper started to show up.

  "It's going to rain tonight, it might start soon, and having something to eat is already good enough. Of course, you can also choose to find your own ingredients to cook or not eat at all, anyway, you solve it yourself." Xiao Fengxue glanced at her lightly and continued with his actions, "But if you don't hurry up and set up the tent, then if it rains later, you'll be keeping watch outside, I don't mind."

  "You...!" Zhuang Yun was choked by her few words and didn't know what to say for a long time. "Hmph! Forget it, I'm not bothered to argue with you. Eating instant noodles is just eating instant noodles, it's not like it can't be done!"

  Because in the afternoon, Xiao Fengxue was seen killing a snake with an expressionless face, everyone had a subtle fear of her in their hearts, and Zhuang Yun also didn't dare to provoke her.

  She didn't get a good result from Xiao Fengxue, but instead got even angrier, and Zhuang Yun directly vented her anger on the tent, her movements becoming more and more violent. "Crack!" The metal folding part of the tent that was used to fix its position broke under her fierce attack.

  The other five people set up their tents and gathered around to boil water, when they suddenly heard a voice, everyone except Emperor Lingyun subconsciously looked over.

  Those eyes made Zhuang Yun's face feel like it was on fire, and she felt extremely embarrassed. She stomped her foot and trampled the tent several times to vent her anger, muttering to herself: "Even a tent dares to bully me! Let you break! What a broken tent, with this quality, I don't want it!"

  In an instant, the deep blue tent was beautifully printed with several black and yellow mud shoe prints, which were tossed around like a pile of rags.

  Xiao Fengxue saw this and shook her head. Originally, it was broken in one place and could still be used after some minor repairs, but now that she had stepped on it, the whole thing was ruined...

  "Xiao Yun, what's wrong with you? You've ruined the tent. How are we going to sleep tonight?" Zhuang Yunzi was considered a mid-to-high level beauty in the academy. Seeing her frown, Xiao Ze immediately went over to comfort her.

  "It's too poor in quality, I just lightly touched it and it broke, what to do! Nowhere to sleep tonight! Am I supposed to get rained on?"

  Zhuang Yun heard that there was no sleep, and suddenly she became anxious and her eyes turned red. Looking at the sky, it would definitely rain tonight, and she didn't want to get soaked.

  Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Xiao Ze's tent and suddenly lit up, "Xiao Ze brother, you're so nice, why don't you give me your tent to use? After all, you're a boy and so strong, getting rained on for one night definitely won't be a big deal, okay?"

  Zhuang Yun's appearance originally belonged to the gentle and delicate type, now paired with a pitiful expression like a pear flower in the rain, Xiao Ze was completely smitten. However, would he stand outside in the rain for an entire night because of a woman?

  "This... I... I've caught a cold recently, the doctor said I shouldn't get rained on, it's really not possible, sorry Small Cloud, I won't be able to help you, cough..."

  Xiao Ze said, still coughing a few times, as if he really had some kind of serious illness.
