A Snake Transmigrated as a Scum A (GL) - Chapter 8
A gust of wind blew, reminding them that a storm was coming.
Di You looked worried, “How are we going to spend the night? Why don’t we go back and cooperate with Chu Xingchun’s team? They must have almost finished building their shelter.”
Tang Youyi didn’t quite agree, “I saw when I came over that the roof they built was not very big, and I guess it’s only enough for four people. There are four of us, so it would be difficult for them.”
Di You was dejected, “Then what should we do?”
Li Yingxue spoke up, “We can only make do with what we have and find some leaves that can block the rain, like palm leaves.”
Di You frowned, looking at her, “Where in this godforsaken place are we going to find palm leaves?”
Tang Youyi looked around, “There should be some, let’s split up and look around.”
Everyone started searching except for Fu Man. She seemed disgusted to use leaves as shelter.
Finally, she moved and walked towards Li Yingxue.
Over there, Li Yingxue was standing under a coconut tree, and there was a particularly long and thick withered leaf lying under the tree.
Li Yingxue seemed to be considering whether she could use it.
Fu Man saw her try to pull it with her hand, but she could only pull it slightly. Fu Man pursed her lips and asked, “Do we really have to use these dirty leaves as shelter? Isn’t it a bit disgusting?”
Li Yingxue didn’t move, and when she heard Fu Man’s words, she turned her head and glanced at her, “What do you want to say?”
Fu Man pondered, “I want to say, if there was a cave, wouldn’t we be able to avoid using these broken leaves as shelter?”
“Where is there a cave?”
“We can ask something.”
In the live broadcast:
[What is she saying? I understand every word, but I don’t know what she means. Is there something wrong with me?]
[So weird, let’s look again]
[Who is she going to ask? Did she bring money into the group?]
[Isn’t it pure cheating to ask the director’s team?]
Not only did the audience in the live broadcast not understand her words, but Li Yingxue didn’t understand either.
“Ask who?”
Fu Man looked at the big tree behind her, and Li Yingxue slowly turned her head, only to see a snake as thick as a forearm coiled around a tree about three meters away from her.
The cameraman zoomed in, and the audience in the live broadcast was almost scared out of their wits.
[What a big snake!]
[Is it a poisonous snake?!]
[If you get bitten, can you just log off?]
Li Yingxue’s face tightened, and she took a small step back. Who would have thought that Fu Man would take a step forward and actually reach out to touch it. Li Yingxue subconsciously grabbed her hand.
Fu Man was pulled back by her and looked back at her, “What’s wrong?”
Then she looked down at the place where Li Yingxue and her bodies touched.
Li Yingxue was wary of the camera pointed at them, “Are you crazy? That’s a venomous snake.”
“…”
Fu Man frowned, not liking being scolded by Li Yingxue, and continued to look at the venomous snake. The snake flicked its tongue, and Fu Man smiled.
“Of course I know it’s a venomous snake.”
Li Yingxue suddenly remembered that Fu Man had liked to play with these things before, so she let go of her hand and took a few steps back.
The cameraman also took a big step back, afraid that they would provoke the venomous snake and it would harm them.
Fu Man took the snake down, and the snake’s tail immediately wrapped around her wrist. The terrifying triangular snake head rested on Fu Man’s palm.
She scratched its head with her finger, and the snake simply lay in her palm, as docile as a pet.
This shocking scene stunned the director’s team.
The director was staring at the screen in the base camp, his hands trembling as he held his phone, and the doctor and medical team beside him were even carrying a whole box of anti-venom, ready to rush over and save people at a hundred meters per second.
Until this scene happened, everyone was stunned, not knowing whether to go or not.
Is this real?! This is a venomous snake, a venomous snake that grows in the jungle!
Even experienced snake handlers wouldn’t dare to handle a wild jungle snake directly.
The comments in the live broadcast suddenly decreased, and everyone held their breath, staring at the screen. The bold guest had just tapped the snake’s head twice, and the venomous snake willingly led the way?
[Is this for real??? Tell me this is fake]
[Does Fu Man have some special ability?]
[Damn, she’s cheating]
[The director, where did you find such an amazing amateur?]
The number of viewers in the live broadcast soared.
Li Yingxue watched Fu Man pass by her with the snake, and her expression was complex.
Fu Man paused as she passed Li Yingxue, “She said there’s a cave nearby, do you want to go?”
Li Yingxue glanced at her with a slightly raised corner of her mouth, and then took a step forward in that direction.
Fu Man followed slowly behind.
“Captain.”
“If we find the cave…”
“Doesn’t that mean we’ve also completed the second task?”
“Let’s see if the other team finished before us.”
Di You saw them walking deeper into the forest and couldn’t help but run over, “Where are you going? It’s about to rain, and you’re still going inside?”
Fu Man said, “There’s a cave inside, we can go in there to avoid the rain.”
Di You exclaimed, “How do you know?”
Fu Man gestured towards the snake three meters away from Li Yingxue, “It told us.”
Di You looked over and saw a snake, her scalp went numb, and she immediately jumped onto Fu Man, hugging her tightly.
“There’s a snake! There’s a snake!”
Her scream almost tore through the forest.
With such a big commotion, Li Yingxue stopped and looked at them coldly.
Fu Man was hugged by Di You, her face turned cold, “Get down.”
Di You was pulled by the back of her neck and couldn’t believe it, looking at Fu Man, “But there really is a snake! It’s so big, aren’t you afraid?!”
Fu Man took a step forward.
“What are you afraid of? I’m letting it lead the way, if you’re scared, you can stay here and don’t follow.”
Di You was confused, “What do you mean…”
Di You observed for a while and found that the snake seemed to be intelligent, actually leading the way for Fu Man. Then, connecting Fu Man’s words, she vaguely understood.
She slowly put down her fear and even felt a sense of admiration, and went forward to walk side by side with Fu Man, curiously asking, “Have you raised snakes before? As far as I know, people who can tame snakes usually deal with them for a long time.”
“I have raised snakes before.”
Di You continued to ask, “What kind of snakes have you raised? Do you keep them at home?”
Fu Man’s gaze always fell unintentionally on the person in front of her, “They’re all dead.”
Killed by her fiancee.
Di You couldn’t believe it, “Killed? How?”
Fu Man finally found her a bit noisy, “You talk too much, shut your mouth.”
Di You: “…”
Probably because of Di You’s scream just now, Tang Youyi came over.
She was also shocked to see this situation, but obviously not as exaggerated as Di You. After knowing the cause and effect, she calmly accepted this fact.
After all, having a capable person on her team was a good thing.
Tang Youyi walked to Li Yingxue’s side and casually asked, “Captain, do you think the cave is full of snakes?”
As soon as she said this, everyone in the team, including the cameraman, stopped abruptly.
It was as if she had suddenly told a ghost story.
The sky was darkening, and dark clouds were pressing down. It wouldn’t be long before it was completely dark. The wind was howling through the forest.
Everyone looked at Fu Man involuntarily.
Di You’s goosebumps stood on end, “Sister Fu Man, is that snake really okay?”
The subtext of her words was, won’t that snake take them to a snake’s nest?
Fu Man scanned everyone, finally settling on Li Yingxue’s face.
She found that even Li Yingxue was looking at her with doubt.
Fu Man’s expression turned cold, “If you don’t believe me, then I’ll go by myself, and you can still go and find some palm leaves.”
As she said that, Fu Man took the first step and walked out of the team, following the venomous snake.
The cameraman responsible for following Fu Man hesitated. If what Tang Youyi said was true, then he didn’t need to follow a fearless person to find a cave.
After all, it was just a job, and he only had one life.
The others were all silent.
Tang Youyi and Di You were considering whether to follow or not. They were just ordinary people, and if there was really a snake’s nest ahead, it wouldn’t be a joke.
Just as they were weighing their options, suddenly, Li Yingxue moved. She walked towards Fu Man without saying a word.
“Captain…” Tang Youyi called out.
Seeing this, Di You and Tang Youyi hesitated. They were hesitant between returning to the director’s team to seek a safe place and taking a risk to follow them to find the cave. In the end, they chose to follow and find the cave.
Di You ran over and caught up with Fu Man, “I’ll come with you, Sister Fu Man, I believe you, it’s definitely not a snake’s nest.”
Fu Man heard the footsteps approaching and turned around to see that it was Di You. A flash of disappointment passed through her eyes.
Looking back, she saw Li Yingxue, and finally, Tang Youyi.
Fu Man looked at Li Yingxue with a complex expression, and Li Yingxue noticed her gaze and lifted her eyelids.
The two looked at each other across the distance, and Li Yingxue belatedly realized that Fu Man’s eyes seemed to be asking why she wasn’t the first to support her.
Li Yingxue looked at Di You beside her, who was constantly talking to her, and vaguely understood why she had this misunderstanding.
The first person to run to Fu Man was Di You, and the first person she saw was also Di You, so naturally, she thought that Di You was the first to actively support her.
But as soon as this absurd guess appeared, Li Yingxue frowned and extinguished it.
Looking forward again, she found that Fu Man had turned around to look back, and Li Yingxue simply looked away, not wanting to look at her anymore.
