Chapter 148 Green Scales
A strong wind was howling over the Tagor Desert, and Xiao Wu, holding Lin Tian, was speeding through the sky like a dazzling meteor.
The scorching sun shone mercilessly on them, casting dazzling rays of light.
"Sir, we've been flying for so long. When will we reach the snake-man tribe you mentioned?"
Xiao Wu's voice seemed a little vague in the strong wind. Her pretty face was full of fatigue, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
"Don't worry, we'll be here soon."
According to Lin Tian's perception, there was a human city not far ahead.
Sure enough, after another two and a half hours of flying.
Xiao Wu also saw the vague outline of the city in the distance. Excited, she accelerated and swooped down like lightning.
……
"Monster! There's a monster here, kill this little monster!"
On the bustling streets of Mo City, three angry teenagers were punching and kicking a young girl in green clothes who was curled up on the ground.
Their movements were fierce and brutal, each one filled with malice.
Seeing that the opponent was fighting more and more fiercely, the girl screamed in pain, the sound was shrill and desperate.
But she did not dare to resist, but just curled up tightly, trying to protect herself.
Just as a man raised the heavy stick in his hand and hit the girl's head hard, a thunderous roar rang out from the air.
"stop!"
The sudden sound was like thunder, which scared several people. The stick in the boy's hand stopped in mid-air and was held tightly by Xiao Wu.
"So many people bullying a girl, aren't you afraid of retribution?"
Xiao Wu's voice was filled with anger, and her beautiful eyes were burning with rage as she stared at the young man in front of her.
The three teenagers were a little dazed at this time. After looking up and seeing the rabbit ears shaking on Xiao Wu's head, they panicked like frightened birds and ran away desperately.
"Oh my god, a monster with rabbit ears!"
Their voices were filled with fear and panic, and they didn't even bother to pick up their shoes after they ran away.
Looking at the three little ghosts who were running away in a panic, Xiao Wu glared at them fiercely.
I wanted to take out a carrot and hit them on the head a few times so that they would remember their lesson.
Then he turned around and looked at the girl lying on the ground and curled up in a ball.
"Little girl, are you okay?" Xiao Wu's voice instantly became gentle. She squatted down and gently stroked the girl's hair.
The girl raised her head, her stained face full of pain and fear. Her eyes were red and swollen, tears welled up in her sockets, and then she shook her head timidly.
"I... I'm fine, thank you for saving me, big sister." The girl's voice was as thin as a mosquito and trembled a little.
"My name is Xiao Wu. What's your name, little girl? Why do they bully you?" Xiao Wu's eyes were full of concern and confusion.
Facing Xiao Wu's question, the girl shook her head in fear, her body trembling slightly, as if she was still immersed in the fear just now.
"I don't have a name. As for why they bully me, it's because I'm an unlucky person who will bring disaster to them."
As the girl spoke, she pulled at her ragged sleeves. Xiao Wu also saw the green scales on the girl's skin.
The scales sparkled strangely in the sunlight, making people shudder.
After seeing those scales, Lin Tian confirmed his guess that this little girl was Qinglin, the girl with the three-flowered pupil of the green snake in the original work.
This is exactly why I asked Xiao Wu to save her.
In the current situation, Qinglin should not have come into contact with Xiao Yan's two brothers, so he is still in a wandering state. Thinking of this.
Under the girl's surprised gaze, Lin Tian jumped lightly from Xiao Wu's arms and turned into a human form.
"Little girl, I see that you are all alone. Do you want to leave here with us?" Lin Tian's voice was gentle and kind, like a spring breeze blowing through the girl's heart.
Xiao Wu, who was standing by, was stunned. She pulled Lin Tian's sleeve in confusion and said, "Sir, you are too direct. What if she refuses..."
But before Xiao Wu could finish her words, the girl blinked her cyan eyes and spoke excitedly, "Really? Are you willing to take me in?"
After all, as a hybrid of human and snake-man, she lived in constant fear and hunger, constantly being bullied or worried about being captured and sold as a slave.
It is not easy for her to survive until now.
Moreover, the guy in front of him was just a ball, but now he has turned into a human. If he is a transformed monster, then his strength must be very strong.
The girl felt that being able to stay with such a person, even as a maid, would allow her to live a safe and stable life, so she seemed very excited.
Coupled with Lin Tian's unique aura, the girl felt very at ease, which was why she was willing to agree.
"Of course it's true. Can I still lie to you?"
As Lin Tian spoke, golden light bloomed in his hands. The light was like warm sunshine, instantly enveloping the girl.
The girl's injuries healed in a moment, and her originally haggard face regained its vitality.
"Since you are willing to follow me, I will give you a name. How about Xiaoqing?"
Feeling the warmth on her body, Xiaoqing was so excited that she knelt down directly, her voice full of gratitude and awe.
"Thank you, Master, for taking me in."
"No need to be like that. My name is Lin Tian, you can just call me Sir."
Lin Tian raised his hand, and a gentle force lifted up the kneeling Xiaoqing.
"Since you have been living here, you must know where the snakeman tribe is. Please take me there."
"This..." Xiaoqing hesitated for two seconds, then spoke timidly.
"Sir, why are you going there? It's very dangerous there. It's difficult for ordinary people to come back alive if they go there." Xiaoqing's eyes were full of worry and fear.
"You don't need to know this, and I'm very strong. There will be no danger. You just need to lead the way."
Lin Tian's tone was confident and calm, as if all difficulties were no problem at all.
"Okay... okay!" Seeing Lin Tian say this, Xiaoqing no longer hesitated and immediately walked quickly towards the city gate.
