Chapter 794: Chapter 794: The Python’s Embrace_1

Once Qin Sisi fully recovered her physical strength and spiritual power, Wen Xuan left, leaving her alone with the ice-scaled purple crystal python.

However, before he left, he handed Qin Sisi a music sheet. The song was nad "Dance of Swallows at Dawn," the very piece he had played on the flute the night before, characterized by a rather cheerful rhythm.

Wen Xuan stated that the ice-scaled purple crystal python had slept all night, and would probably not want to listen to a lullaby during the day. Always hearing lullabies would not be beneficial to the healing of its wounds. More lively music would be more suitable for dayti listening.

Following Wen Xuan’s departure, Qin Sisi looked at the python and heaved a sigh. This demonic beast was having such a comfortable life; eating and sleeping regularly, and continually listening to music, what a wonderful life indeed!

After Qin Sisi expressed her emotions, she finally picked up her half moon zither and began to practice playing "Dance of Swallows at Dawn" as per the score Wen Xuan left behind.

She was uncertain whether the piece had been chosen by Wen Xuan or Teacher Yirou, but either way, it was just the right level of difficulty for her.

"Dance of Swallows at Dawn," although quite different in style from a tranquilizing tune, was relatively easy to grasp. After practicing for a few hours, she was able to perform it quite proficiently.

Despite these feelings, Qin Sisi found herself actually enjoying the process of practicing and playing, beyond the stress brought on by the ice-scaled purple crystal python and the fatigue from playing for prolonged periods.

Over ti, she sensed that the python’s attitude towards her had beco much friendlier and it no longer glared at her with its deadly red eyes quite so frequently.

Once, while Qin Sisi was playing, the python slithered towards her, rubbing its head against her legs.

Qin Sisi suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, but she suppressed her fear, forcing a slight smile and pretending she liked the python’s unusual attention.

Despite the fright, she was relieved because she no longer had to worry about being swallowed by it.

On the third day, when Wen Xuan ca to bring food for her and the python, he handed her another sheet of music - a tranquilizing song.

Wen Xuan said that this piece was particularly beneficial for those who were injured. It was calming, steadying the mind and soothing the soul, which aids in recovery.

Therefore, on the third night, Qin Sisi played the tranquilizing song for the ice-scaled purple crystal python almost all night.

On the fourth morning, Yi Rou and Wen Xuan ca to the basent where the python resided. After an examination, Yirou lightly smiled and said with satisfaction, "Very good, Xiaobing’s wound has fully healed."

Xiaobing?

This was the first ti Qin Sisi heard Teacher Yirou addressing the python with such a cute na. She glanced at the python with mixed feelings; such a na hardly suited this large creature.

However, rembering the sight of the python rubbing at her legs, Qin Sisi thought that the na was not entirely unreasonable after all.

Now that the ice-scaled purple crystal python’s wound was fully healed, and Qin Sisi had played music for it for three days and three nights, she had indeed fulfilled the requirent set by Teacher Yirou.

Yi Rou did not pose any more challenges to Qin Sisi, but playfully remarked, "Off you go now. If we detain you any longer, your little lover might burn down my Tianyin Mountain."

Qin Sisi blushed. Thinking of how Ye You was worrying about her, she felt an urgent desire to return ho.

Wen Xuan smiled and said, "Junior Qin, you go ahead and return. We will naturally see each other again in half a month."

Qin Sisi nodded, said her goodbyes, and then turned around, ready to leave.

However, just as she was taking her first step, she found her back foot suddenly seized. She didn’t notice and almost tripped, and when she turned to look, she found her foot was actually held by the Ice-scaled Purple Crystal Python.

Qin Sisi dared not cause harm to this treasured python, so she turned pleading eyes to Teacher Yirou for assistance.

Teacher Yirou was sowhat caught off guard by the python’s response. She pat it on its head and softly scolded, "Alright, let her go, she needs to leave. Let go now!"

The Python didn’t obey imdiately, but instead rubbed its head gently against Yirou’s leg, as though it was pleading for sothing.

Teacher Yirou impatiently scolded, "She is not a female python, why should she continuously keep you company? Stop dreaming."

The python seed to be disappointed; it slithered in front of Qin Sisi and began spiraling upwards along her body.

Frightened, Qin Sisi froze in place, calling out again to teacher Yirou with her gaze.

Teacher Yirou rely said placatingly, "Don’t be afraid, it just wants to properly bid you goodbye."

Qin Sisi almost burst into tears. She had no choice but to allow the python to encircle her, as though she were wearing an outfit made of snakes.

In the end, the python’s head was level with Qin Sisi’s. It stuck out its long tongue, licking Qin Sisi several tis, before eventually, and very slowly, releasing her under Yirou’s repeated urging.

Teacher Yirou pointed a finger at the python’s head and complained as if she was berating a hopeless case, "You’re so weak-willed, allowing yourself to be tad by just three days and three nights of music."

No wonder the python was unwilling to let Qin Sisi go, as no one had ever continuously played music for it for three days and three nights. Not even Yi Rou or Wen Xuan, who had at most stayed with it for a day.

Having soone like Qin Sisi, who stayed by its side for three days straight playing music for it, was an incredibly rare occurrence.

The python returned to entwining itself around Yi Rou’s leg. She pushed it away impatiently and said, "Now that your wound is healed, hurry back to guard the Ice Cave. In the future be more alert, and don’t wait until every fish has been eaten before you show up."

Qin Sisi was left speechless, and quickly left the python’s basent. She made sure to clean the skin that had been licked by the python with her sleeve.

Greeting the sunlight again, Qin Sisi felt an overwhelming sense of affability. She didn’t dare to turn back to look at the sight of the many snakes coiled at the Wanlong Pool. She headed straight for the downhill path of Tianyin mountain.

Before reaching the place where she had parted with Ye You, she saw two people standing ahead of her; one of them had the familiar figure of Ye You, while the other was the scarred strange man who used to accompany Yi Rou.

From the looks of it, it seed that Ye You wanted to go in, but was stopped by the man.

Qin Sisi hurriedly walked over, just in ti to hear Ye You anxiously ask, "Mr. Chen Song, three days have passed, why won’t you let Sisi co out?"

Chen Song replied helplessly, "Your Highness, the day has just dawned, please wait a mont longer, and Miss Qin should co out soon."
