"Brother Ding, are you really prepared to raise it?"

Li Mishi asked.

"Of course!" Ding Sanyuan said happily, "Look, it sleeps so comfortably on my shoulder, as if it has found a home."

Chen Sanjin said: "Brother Yuan, don't blame me for not reminding you. This kind of wild animal cannot be raised well. Please be careful that it hurts you!"

Ding Sanyuan smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Look, it's quite familiar with me now!"

As he said that, he reached out and patted the little guy on his shoulder.

The little guy opened his eyes and glanced at him, then fell asleep again.

Li Mishi said: "Can I touch it when it is asleep?"

As he said that, he stretched out his hand to touch the little guy.

Unexpectedly, when the heel of her hand was halfway extended, the little guy suddenly woke up and glanced at her fiercely. She was so frightened that she quickly retracted her hand, hid behind Ding Sanyuan, and said in a trembling voice: "It...its eyes are so fierce."

, seems to be trying to eat me!”

Ding Sanyuan comforted her and said: "Don't be afraid, it may be a bit unfamiliar and it will get better after a while."

Chen Sanjin said: "Okay, Brother Yuan collected a big-headed squirrel, should we determine the next step?"

Ding Sanyuan said: "I've thought about it. Since we can't find the Nine-Headed Red Squid, we might as well go back to Xiaotian Village first."

Li Mishi said: "If we go back, Master Xiaotian will not forgive us. After all, we did not follow his instructions to find those treasures."

Chen Sanjin said: "Yes, in addition to the seven-color glazed grass and the nine-headed red squid, Master Xiaotian also asked us to look for three treasures: golden grass, black leaf jade, and diamond snow flakes, but we have not found any of them so far."

Ding Sanyuan said: "Without the Nine-Headed Red Squid, even if the other treasures are found, it will be meaningless. That's why I decided to go back to Xiaotian Village first and ask Lord Xiaotian if there is any other way."

Hearing what he said, Li Mishi and Chen Sanjin nodded and said, "That's all we can do now."

Ding Sanyuan said: "Okay, that's it. Let's go back to Xiaotian Village."

After determining the direction of action, the three people quickly left the nameless lake and ran towards Xiaotian Village.

…

Not long after leaving the nameless lake.

They came to the forest where they had ambushed the strong man in black.

Li Mishi looked at Lin Zi, suddenly shuddered, and said: "Brother Ding, I think this place is so scary!"

Chen Sanjin also said: "As soon as I entered this forest, my back felt cold!"

Ding Sanyuan said: "Don't be afraid, let's go straight through, it won't take too long."

Li Mishi said: "The remaining three strong men in black...will they be ambush in the woods?"

These words made Ding Sanyuan's heart tremble. Yes, there are three strong men in black still looking for them everywhere!

Although those strong men in black may not have any ill intentions towards them, it would be dangerous if those guys knew that they were the ones who killed those guys' accomplices.

"How about we go around this forest?"

Chen Sanjin said.

Ding Sanyuan looked around: "This forest can't be seen to the end. Who knows how big it is. If the detour takes too long, I'm afraid it will delay our return to Xiaotian Village!"

Li Mishi said: "Brother Ding, I also want to take a detour. The forest here is really creepy to me."

Having said that, even Ding Sanyuan felt that this forest was a bit scary.

After all, they killed two immortal cultivators in this forest. Looking at this forest now, it always feels gloomy.

"Okay, let's go around!"

Ding Sanyuan made a decision immediately, "However, we have to go faster! Don't waste too much time!"

After saying that, he pulled Li Mishi and Chen Sanjin and ran forward along the perimeter of the forest.

…

This forest is very strange.

There is a gloomy scene in the forest, but outside the forest the sun is shining brightly and the breeze is gentle.

Ding Sanyuan and the others walked along the outer edge of the forest for a while and came to a dry well.

Li Mishi said: "Let's rest for a while, I'm tired, thirsty and hungry!"

Ding Sanyuan pointed to the dry well and said, "Let's go sit by the well and see if there is any water in the well."

After saying that, the three of them came to the well.

When I looked down, I saw that the entire dry well was dark and bottomless.

A stream of cold air came out from the well mouth, making people feel chilly all over.

Chen Sanjin picked up a stone and threw it down.

After a while, the stone didn't make any sound.

The three of them couldn't help but look at each other.

Li Mishi said in a trembling voice: "How deep...should this well be?"

Chen Sanjin said: "It's bottomless! It's so scary."

At this time, the big-headed squirrel on Ding Sanyuan's shoulder suddenly opened its eyes and looked into the well.

"Hey, little guy, be careful if you fall! If you fall, you'll be dead!"

Chen Sanjin said jokingly.

The little guy took one look at him and jumped straight into the well.

Ding Sanyuan was shocked and quickly reached out to grab it, but it was still a step too late.

They could only watch as the big-headed squirrel disappeared into the dark dry well.

Chen Sanjin was surprised and said: "This... this little guy really dares to jump?"

Ding Sanyuan complained: "Why did you bother it? I said it is humane! It's fine now. It jumped down. What should I do?"

Chen Sanjin said angrily: "Blame me, blame me, it's all my talkativeness. I really didn't expect it to behave like this!"

Li Mishi said: "Okay, Brother Ding, it seems that he jumped down on his own. In fact, Brother Sanjin is not to blame."

Chen Sanjin nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, you really can't blame me!"

Ding Sanyuan sighed: "I don't blame you. I'm just a little curious about this little guy. Why did it jump into the well?"

Li Mishi said: "There is no chance to figure this out. If it jumps, it will definitely die!"

After saying that, the three of them sat down by the well in silence, feeling heavy in their hearts.

Although the big-headed squirrel didn't get along with them for a long time, both Li Mishi and Chen Sanjin liked it because it was quite cute.

Now, it has jumped headlong into the dry well, which makes no one feel happy.

The wind in the forest whistled.

The cold air blowing from the wellhead spread everywhere, causing the temperature at the wellhead to drop.

They sat at the mouth of the well and soon felt cold all over.

"Brother Ding, don't feel bad, let's go, it's too cold here!"

Li Mishi said softly.

Ding Sanyuan looked back at the wellhead and said, "I don't know if it can still come up?"

Li Mishi said: "Brother Ding, don't think about it anymore. The well is too deep. If you jump down, you won't be able to get back up again. Let's get out of here quickly!"

Chen Sanjin also said: "Yes, Brother Yuan, don't be sad, it's just a wild squirrel. If you want it, I will give you ten or a hundred in the future, okay?"

Ding Sanyuan rolled his eyes at him and said, "Who wants you to pay back? Ten or hundreds of them, not this one."

Chen Sanjin said: "If you insist on this one, then I have no choice. How about I jump down and help you look for it?"
