Today, I Have Yet to Become a Doll

While he was thinking, Tan Xiao waved to him in the distance and shouted, "Boss! You go in first! Maybe the old man will figure out the landing spot in a bit, let's not fight that toad monster!"

He was quite concerned about Shen Mo.

Shen Mo rubbed the knife on the snail shell a couple of times, glanced coldly at the golden ball high above, turned, and drilled into the snail shell.

Another round of earth-shattering tremors.

…

The golden ball stopped.

…

The frog came out.

…

"Croak--croak--"

The frog, hungry for two rounds, finally couldn't hold back any longer. It started to rummage through the mud with its front legs and then拨弄 the nearby snails, trying to find a few bugs to fill its stomach.

This change caught everyone off guard.

As soon as they felt the mud trembling, everyone tensed up almost simultaneously and drilled as far as they could into the shells! They used the narrow inner walls to jam their bodies in, avoiding slipping out of the snail shells during the tremors.

"Croak! --Croak! --" The frog grew more and more agitated.

The mud was constantly churning by the frog's webbed feet!

Bai Youwei heard a short scream from outside!

An "Ah!" disappeared in an instant. Because the time was so short, it was impossible to tell who the unlucky one was.

And she couldn't care less about judging these things now, because she herself was already on the verge of falling!

Her weak lower limbs really put her at a disadvantage in this game!

Plop!

The snail Bai Youwei was in was turned upside down, and she was thrown out of the shell and fell heavily into the mud!

• Her body was sinking, but Bai Youwei didn't move.

She knew she couldn't move now. Once she showed her head, she would be eaten by the frog as a bug! So she had to stabilize, stabilize…

Stinking muddy water poured in from all directions, like slippery snakes, burrowing into her nose, her eyes, her ears, and her mouth… Bai Youwei held her breath with all her might, but the insecurity of her body losing its support and the terror of approaching death still tortured her mind!

This feeling was simply terrible!

But in order to survive, she had to endure!

Ironically, she was a person who wanted to die all the time, but in such a game, she burst out with such a tenacious will to survive.

An arm wrapped around her waist and lifted her up!

She suddenly came into contact with fresh air!

Bai Youwei opened her eyes and breathed heavily, the mud all over her face dripping down. She saw the man's broad and strong chest, and looked up to see Shen Mo's cold and distant face.

Bai Youwei just looked at him, unable to speak, she had been gasping for air in an oxygen-deprived manner.

Shen Mo was about to put her down.

Her hand gripped his arm tightly, refusing to let go!

The fear the mud had brought her was still there, and she trembled in his arms like a rabbit that had survived a disaster.

Shen Mo frowned, but didn't let go.

Tan Xiao came over from the side, his short, granny-gray hair messed up like a chicken coop after being stuck with mud. He said to Bai Youwei, "Don't be afraid, the frog is gone!"

Then he stretched out his hand and gestured around his neck, afraid that she wouldn't understand, and made a gesture of cutting his stomach -

"Your brother cut its belly open! It ran away!"

Bai Youwei slowly exhaled, closed her eyes, and buried her face in Shen Mo's arms, not moving.

"Your sister is scared." Tan Xiao sighed with understanding and patted Shen Mo's shoulder. "Take good care of her. I can see that you have a good relationship. She can't live without you."

Shen Mo: "…"

Bai Youwei was fine at first, but she wanted to laugh inexplicably when she heard this, her shoulders trembled slightly, and she asked in a low voice, "Did you figure out the landing spot?"

Hearing her tone, Shen Mo knew that she had recovered, and his heart relaxed slightly.

Tan Xiao, however, became wistful, turned his head to look at Cheng Weicai not far away, and let out a long sigh, "No."

After he said these words, no one made a sound.

The only sound in the cave was the constant scratching of Teacher Cheng's calculations.

The silence was unusual, and the taste of despair lingered in everyone's hearts…
