Before I could turn my head, I could hear the rustling sound of my clothes.

When I turned around, I saw Ying Yuanli, who had already worn the clothes tightly, raised an eyebrow at me.

"Xiao Naier, I've seen enough, so start bathing for me." Ying Yuanli's snake tail swayed and said to me, "Wash my snake tail well."

"What? You brought me here to wash your snake tail?" I looked at Ying Yuanli in surprise.

"Otherwise? I was injured and couldn't wash myself, so I would have troubled Xiao Nai'er. I think you wouldn't refuse, right? After all, I was locked in the coffin by your ancestor for thousands of years." Ying Yuanli looked at me with deep eyes.

The snake that has not taken a bath for a thousand years does sound a little dirty.

Of course, I couldn't refuse the mistakes my ancestors made, and the descendants of the grandchildren came to repay them.

Now Ying Yuanli didn't let me pay my life, but just asked me to help him bathe. Indeed, he was already very kind.

I nodded, "Okay, I'll wash it for you."

Then I couldn't help looking at Ying Yuanli's waist. Fortunately, I was just washing the snake's tail, otherwise I wouldn't be able to do it.

Ying Yuanli's snake tail floated on the water surface, and the dark snake skin was indeed a bit dirty.

He handed me a snow-white handkerchief and asked me to clean his snake tail.

Yes, work.

I rolled up my sleeves. Although I was soaked all over now, fortunately this was a hot spring. My neck was soaked in the warm lake water, so I didn't feel cold at all.

Now looking at Ying Yuanli's snake tail, it seems that it is not scary anymore.

I worked diligently as a bathing worker for this snake and scrubbed his snake tail.

But he found that his snake tail was scarred, and some even turned outward and had just scabbed.

Some wounds only have a very thick scar, which should be the scar left by injuries a long time ago.

Seeing these wounds made me feel uncomfortable, and the snake also felt pain.

How painful should he have so many wounds?

So my scrubbing movements became even more gentle and I didn't say anything anymore.

Ying Yuanli also leaned against the rock wall, closing his eyes, as if enjoying it, but I could see the dark circles in his eyes and the fatigue on his face.

He seemed to be a rare relaxation, and he also needed rest and recuperate.

In this lake, there was only the sound of water that I occasionally made. Apart from that, we were alone and even snakes, we were silent.

The silence of this atmosphere made me feel a sense of peace, just like Ying Yuanli was by my side and I was not afraid of anything.

"A Yuan, how did you get your new injury?" I couldn't help but ask softly at Ying Yuanli. The pain made my voice softer.

"After you released me, I went to find Bai Yifeng to dry one." Ying Yuanli looked much gentler, not as gloomy and cold as before. When asked, he was willing to answer.

"Did you have Bai Yifeng's credit for being suppressed there?" I looked at Ying Yuanli, no wonder these two snakes looked like enemies.

"He doesn't have the ability to suppress me yet." Ying Yuanli sneered disdainfully.

"Then why are you going to fight him? Didn't you fight after having a holiday?" I asked in wonder.

You can't fight for no reason, at least you are the same.

"I taught him a lesson, but he actually dared to think about my wife." Ying Yuanli snorted coldly, and his eyes were fixed on me.

"..." I naturally knew what he said, but I was also innocent about this matter, right?

So, I said seriously and righteously, "I was forced to marry Bai Yifeng, and I didn't care about him."

"Well, my little Nail's eyes are naturally not as bad as looking at the white snake." Ying Yuanli seemed to have instantly become happy when he heard me say this, and the coldness between his eyebrows softened.

My mind kept turning, and while Ying Yuanli was in a good mood now, he seemed very willing to answer questions when he asked him.

Then you have to take this opportunity to ask him more to answer questions and answer questions.

However, when asked about what happened a thousand years ago, he would definitely refuse to answer, so let's satisfy my curiosity about him first.

I usually wiped his snake tail and asked, "A Yuan, are you not good enough to do Taoism, so you can't fully cultivate into a human form?"

"Isn't the Taoist practice enough? Haha, a thousand years ago, I was already..." Then he stopped talking and looked at me, and became sad and uncomfortable.

His voice suddenly became very low, and he seemed to say a vaguely, "Little Nail, if it weren't for you, how could I become like a half-human and half-snake now?"

I couldn't help but be stunned. Is he becoming like this because of me?

"I made you like this? Then will you always be like this in the future?" I asked hurriedly.

"No, when my injury is cured, you will be able to cultivate into a human form." Ying Yuanli replied.

"You said I made you like this, when? My past life?" I couldn't help asking.

I am a celestial master, so I naturally know that humans have past and present lives.

"Forget it, it's better not to mention the past." Ying Yuanli shook his head, then reached out to lift the wet hair on both sides of my cheeks, looked at my face, and looked at me, his eyes as deep as the sea.

Then he turned into a sigh and said to me, "Little Nail, remember, don't betray me again..."

I didn't say anything, but a dull pain surged in my heart.

"Okay, I'll take you back." After Ying Yuanli said that, he hugged me and jumped up from the lake.

I hurriedly hugged him, and the wet clothes of the two of them suddenly became dry after leaving the lake.

He obviously felt that Ying Yuanli's mood became depressed, and seemed to remember what happened before, which made him sad.

I didn't dare to speak when he was like this, but the dull pain in my heart kept lingering.

After Ying Yuanli quietly sent me back home, he disappeared in front of me.

I lay on the bed, holding the quilt, thinking about Ying Yuanli's half-human and half-snake appearance, and his scarred snake tail, but I couldn't sleep anymore.

After tossing and turning, I don’t know how long it took, but I finally fell asleep in a drowsy way.

But I had a dream.

In the dream, I saw Ying Yuanli jumping into a cliff, and I rushed to the edge of the cliff with my heart-wrenching gaze and cried, not to say goodbye.

And I was pulled by the person behind me, and I couldn't jump, so I could only watch Ying Yuanli continue to fall.

The wind blew his long black hair, and a faint smile of despair and sadness on his face, his mouth opened and closed, as if saying a sentence, "My love, goodbye forever."

"No, don't..." I suddenly sat up from the bed.

The heart-wrenching pain in the dream did not slow down a little because of my awakening. When I touched my face, I was filled with tears...
