The Story of White Dragon
Ch. 11 [Freedom II]

On the fifth day that Yu Bai had come to his senses. Yu Bai was still on the wooden mat. His wounds have not improved.

Now he's just himself in this old, unkempt shack.

His dark brown eyes looked at the state of the hut that looked unkempt. Dust was strewn everywhere, the cobwebs almost covered every corner of the hut.

Yu Bai felt that the one living in this old hut was not a woman, but a man who had a lazy nature.

Yu Bai got up from his lying position. For a moment he felt pain in his back. There was a ringing sound on his lips.

He's gotta get up. Don't just sleep in this old hut.

Yu Bai stood up and walked towards the mossy wooden door. It was a bit of a shock, but it was a significant advance.

Yu Bai pushed softly on the door then the sound of the door creaking sounded.

The gentle wind makeup Yu Bai who was quite stunned by the sight before him at this moment.

This was indeed the first time Yu Bai had walked out of this old hut.

Yu Bai looked fascinated and a little confused.

Where is he now?

A large tree and a large tree. Not to mention the wide variety of flowers growing healthy in a yard full of green grass that looks fresh due to morning dew.

The sunlight penetrated through the leaves that covered the scene of the blue sky.

Looks peaceful and calm.

"Can you stand up?"

Yu Bai looked over. He found a woman who was quite familiar.

"Non"

"Call me Qing only" cut him quickly.

Yu Bai nodded stiffly.

Honestly speaking. Despite having met Qing many times, he still felt wary or unfamiliar with Qing.

"Cabin."

Yu Bai walked slowly towards Qing who was seen watering the flowers.

"You, flush this flower and that one over there" pointed Qing at the red flower that was at the furthest spot from the other flowers.

Yu Bai nodded.

Qing handed a place filled with water to Yu Bai. Then he turned and stepped into the forest.

"God..." Qing turned around and smiled faintly. "Don't touch anything. Understood?"

Again, Yu Bai just nodded. After saying that, Qing walked back into the forest.

Yu Bai looked at the flowers in the courtyard.

Yu Bai sighed softly. Yah... Counting a little exercise from all the time he lay on a wooden mat.  Thought Yu Bai.

"What are you doing?"

A long black haired woman was seen coming towards a man wearing a shabby white robe.

They were Qing and Long Jinzhi.

Seen Jinzhi who was lying with a tree that became his sand on the edge of the river that looks clear. Beside him was a sword lying together with a drinking place made of bamboo.

Jinzhi opened his previously closed eyes. The golden-yellow Netra stared intently at Qing who was sitting next to Jinzhi.

"You left Yu Bai?"

Qing laughed, "Hahaha... You've started calling him by name."

Jinzhi grunting. "So what should I call him? The kid? The boy? It's too convoluted."

Qing blinked his eyes, looking surprised at Jinzhi. "What'sthis? You're starting to talk a lot."

A look of annoyance appeared on Jinzhi's face. He wanted to retaliate, but he didn't. He knew Qing who liked to turn words around.

Silence is gold. That's what Jinzhi is applying now.

There is no conversation. They both seemed to be enjoying the silence.

The sound of the flowing stream became the only sound that filled the silence between the two of them.

"Jin, are you sure?"

Jinzhi glanced at Qing for a moment. "You doubted me?"

Qing shook his head slowly. "No. I just...."

"just?"

There was a sad look on Qing's pale face.

Jinzhi who noticed it only let out a rough sigh. His right hand then patted Qing's head softly. After that, he stroked gently.

"Don't show that face Qing. I don't like it."

Qing nodded stiffly. In his heart, he was very happy to get an elusan from Jinzhi who was famous for being ignorant.

Jinzhi took his sword and tied it to his left shoulder and placed the bamboo in the bond on his waist. Then he picked up the leather bag he had placed on his right shoulder.

Jinzhi pulled on the shabby white robe until his white hair was nowhere to be seen.

"Isn't it too soon?"

Jinzhi. He stood facing Qing who also stood up and looked at him. Qing's black eyes looked displeased when she saw Jinzhi was leaving. Again.

"I'll be back again."

"When?"

Looks Jinzhi's face is guessing. "Hm... One or two months?"

"Where are you going?"

"You're introgasin' on me, Dad?" Jinzhi asked in annoyance.

"That's it. Just answer my question" Qing replied no less irritated.

"To the south."

"South?"

Jinzhi nodded. "Have you? I'm pinning Yu Bai on you."

"Yes" Qing replied slowly.

Jinzhi smiled faintly. After that he turned around and started walking away from Qing who was staring at Jinzhi's back with a hard to interpret gaze.

Even after the shadow of Jinzhi was not seen anymore. Qing was still standing there.

In the end Qing sighed harshly.

He could not change Jinzhi's mind anymore. Jinzhi had already set his next goal.

Qing was between happy and sad when Jinzhi had already made his choice.

Qing finally walked away from the place where he and Jinzhi were talking.

On his way back to that old, unkempt hut. Qing looked dreamy and unaware of a snake approaching him.

The snake was six meters long and its skin color was dark purple and slightly greenish in the abdominal skin.

The snake shrieked swiftly towards the still daydreaming Qing.

It was seen that the snake was getting ready to bite off any unprotected Qing leg.

Just before the snake bit Qing's leg. A thin, silvery needle pierced the snake quickly.

The snake is seen writhing in pain and hissing before the snake gets its death.

The culprit was Qing who was staring coldly at the dead snake.

"Snake purple Venom, is it?" Qing muttered softly.

Qing leaned over and picked up the silver needle he threw towards the snake.

For a moment he fell silent when he saw the six greenish lines on the snake's skin.

"It's...." Qing focused his gaze. After that he screamed loudly. "6000 Years!"

There was a happy and happy look on Qing's face.

"I got Snake purple Venom at 6000 years old!"

Qing looks to slap herself. "It's not a dream!"

Qing was looking excited in the middle of the forest. Sometimes he laughed loudly and giggled indistinctly.

"I'll be rich" he murmured during the journey.

"How much is Snake purple Venom? 500 Fuan? 1,000 fuan? Or 1 million Fuan?!"

Qing laughed again indistinctly.

Shortly after, he arrived at his home.

Still looking happy, Qing walked leisurely and occasionally hummed happily.

But the humming noise stopped when he saw Yu Bai who looked like he wanted to touch the dark red flower.

Qing's breath was choked.

"Yu Bai!"
