Lin Sanjiu never ie

Although she knew that this situation was beyond her control, her regret sed her heart whole as if a poisonous snake [I shouldn't have touched thatthat she wasn't responding, the snake-face person grew impatient It uncoiled its tail, and its body rose It watched Lin Sanjiu closely with its pair of vertical pupils

"Where are you, from?"

Lin Sanjiu's heart froze Her body reacted faster than her thoughts She stored her [Ability Polishing Agent] in a split second She turned and ran under the cover of the sudden darkness

Lin Sanjiu quickly took out her [Ability Polishing Agent] She saw the shadow of a large bridge-like structure above her head It had a forked tip The thing sticking out from the tree bark in front of her was indeed the snake-faced person's tongue

If she ran any faster, she would have been pierced

Suddenly, a large drop of saliva fell on top of Lin Sanjiu, she was immediately drenched The skin all over her body hurt frole drop of saliva If the snake-faced person wanted to attack her

"Do the nutrients refer to us hu that the answer to her question was stupidly obvious

Unexpectedly, the snake-face person corrected her

After it spat out the word 'no' froht pause, as if it needed to choose its words, "Trees bear fruit There are nutrients in fruits The nutrients in the fruit I ate were bad, poor… But, I understand your language"

[Did I interpret those words correctly?]

Lin Sanjiu was al for the first time with other creatures that weren't snake-faced people, the snake-faced person see the conversation When it spoke to this point, it used its tongue to pronounce a co to be soood, the one I ate, made me understand words"
