Chapter 165 Made another mistake
Qing Yi's words brought Huo Manshu back to her senses. She nodded. If it were other snails, she might not be able to do anything about it, but the giant snail was in her illustrated book.
Huo Manshu took Qing Yi and Huo Nanting outside the thatched house.
Under the confused looks of Qing Yi and Huo Nanting, she summoned the giant snail.
The giant snail's shell seemed to shine even more brightly, glowing like water waves under the sunlight.
The giant snail's two big eyes were swaying, and the moment it saw Homanshu, its big eyes narrowed into slits, and Nugu Nugu walked towards Homanshu with a friendly cry.
Qing Yi's arms were covered with goosebumps the moment the giant snail appeared.
If he were in animal form now, he would definitely explode.
Such a big snail doesn't require common sense. Qing Yi knows that this is definitely a spiritual food snail.
Seeing that the giant snail was getting closer to Homanshu, his heartbeat stopped and he pulled Homanshu to one side with a wary expression: "Don't let it get close, it is a bad snail!"
Although she didn't know how Huo Manshu got the snail, Qing Yi felt that Huo Manshu must have been deceived by the bad snail.
The giant snail, the ‘bad snail’, did not get close to Homanshu, and its two big eyes instantly felt aggrieved.
When he looked at Qing Yi again, his eyes became sharp.
The snail's movement was originally not fast, but the speed of the giant snail was very fast at that moment. Qing Yi was bitten by the giant snail before he could even react.
The half step back that was conditioned reflex only saved half of Qing Yi's body.
The other half of the shriveled body had begun to fester.
And compared to the scavenging toad's wounds that took a long time to start to fester badly, half of Qing Yi's body festered very quickly, with bones already visible in some places.
Qing Yi couldn't help but cried out in pain while holding that arm.
The rapid loss of spiritual power almost made it impossible for him to maintain his human form.
Looking at Qing Yi who had become miserable, the giant snail's two big eyes narrowed in pleasure, and there was a faint hint of asking for credit and praise from Huo Manshu.
Huo Manshu did not praise the giant snail. On the contrary, her expression was a little serious.
"Stop, he will die."
This is the first time that Huo Manshu has seen the attack power of a giant snail head-on. She seems to understand why the giant snail is a legendary spiritual creature.
"It's no use talking to it."
Kun Bai in his mind said after being shocked, "They are the only ones in their world, and they are dangerous existences. If you stop them like this, it may have the opposite effect."
After Kun Bai became a weapon spirit, he could have seen everything in the illustrated book, but the giant snail was not listed. The giant snail was already at the legendary level, almost the same level as Kun Bai. It didn't want Kun Bai to see it. Kun Bai didn't notice it at all. If Huo Manshu hadn't called out the giant snail, Kun Bai wouldn't have known that the giant snail existed.
As Kun Bai said, the injured Qing Yi also advised Huo Manshu to stay away. It was not a joke that the snail could not communicate.
However, to the surprise of the two people, after the giant snail was reprimanded, he lowered his eyes in disappointment and secretly glanced at Qing Yi with his peripheral vision. The giant snail reluctantly gave Qing Yi another bite. After it finished talking, the corrosive mucus attached to Qing Yi disappeared.
Although the wound was still scary, it was no longer life-threatening.
"There are snacks." Looking at Qing Yi's changes, Huo Manshu still didn't understand. This giant snail was breaking the law!
For the first time, Huo Manshu had a serious face. She had never thought that there was such an unequal predatory relationship between her so-called demon pets.
"You want to eat the snack."
Huo Manshu didn't ask in return, she said very definitely, "Do you regard snacks as food?"
The two big eyes of the giant snail were scolded to be lowered into the ground.
It Nugu Nugu chirped twice.
It was obviously a different language, but Huo Manshu unexpectedly understood its meaning: "You said I asked you to eat it?"
Huo Manshu's expression could no longer be described as cold, "I don't like hearing lies."
Huo Manshu pointed to the side of Xiaoshu, who was so depressed that he was about to faint. Although she was angry, she still knew the priorities: "You take care of the snacks first, and I will talk to you about other things."
Like a child who made a mistake, the giant snail ran to the side of the snack and took a bite of it.
Sure enough, the wounds on Xiaoshi's body stopped festering.
While Qing Yi was treating herself, she also started to treat Xiao Shi. Huo Nanting, who didn't know what he was going to do, started looking for trouble to help Qing Yi.
His current status was too embarrassing. He wanted to tell Huo Manshu not to be angry, but he felt that it was unnecessary to say this.
His mood was complicated. He was now like a brother-in-law who didn't dare to say anything when he saw parents lecturing their children.
This time, Huo Manshu was communicating with the giant snail seriously. Her words were cold and powerful, and the giant snail did not raise its eyes during the whole process.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
Huo Manshu felt that there were still many things she didn't understand about the giant snail. Even if the giant snail was a food-eating demon pet, there was no reason why it had to eat recently if it hadn't eaten before.
The giant snail grunted in aggrieved manner. One person and one snail were obviously not on the same channel, but the communication was extremely smooth.
Through the giant snail's simple words, Huo Manshu understood the whole story.
It was different from what she knew from Qing Yi, but not different at the same time.
The giant snail is actually not a simple spiritual-eating demon pet, it is an omnivorous demon pet.
Moreover, the giant snail also has an ability that Homanshu didn't know about, that is, it can actually travel freely in the illustrated book. Some of the herbs that Homanshu accumulated were actually eaten by the giant snail, but the quantity was huge, and Homanshu did not remember the numbers specifically. Naturally, I didn't find anything wrong.
These all happened before Kun Bai became a weapon spirit. Since Kun Bai became a weapon spirit, the giant snail can no longer shuttle freely.
The incident about sucking the spirituality of snacks is purely because of the time when Homanshu put the giant snail on Xiaoshi's back.
The direct contact with the scavenging toad triggered the giant snail's instinct, and the egotism made the giant snail think that these were the foods arranged for it by Homanshu.
However, amid this excessive egotism, the giant snail still cared a little about Homanshu, so it was only quietly testing Homanshu's bottom line.
Otherwise, with the speed at which it absorbs spiritual energy, it can turn that snack into something dry on the spot.
