The acquired items went directly into the bag.
But Su Yao was curious, so she took another piece of meat and looked at it in her hand.
It does resemble rabbit meat, but what is that layer of black, floating substance hovering over it?
"Master~"
Su Yao felt the excitement of the little snake on her arm, "Do you want to eat this?"
The little snake nodded, its whole body trembling, "It smells so good! I want to eat it!"
"Does it need to be cooked?" Su Yao tapped the black substance on top, but couldn't get it off. "This thing isn't poisonous, is it?"
"I am a snake, not afraid of poison. The more poisonous, the better. It's good for me! The less cooked, the tastier!" The little snake grew more and more excited as it spoke.
"Alright, alright, eat up." Su Yao fed the meat to the little snake.
She still trusted the little snake's feelings, after all, this was the inherited memory bestowed upon it by the system.
The level 1 little snake already had the appearance of a snake when swallowing food, and a piece of rabbit meat quickly went down its throat.
At the same time, the little snake's belly also became noticeably swollen.
Su Yao was surprised and reached out to touch it, discovering that it had indeed protruded. It should be noted that after eating buns all morning, her stomach hadn't bulged at all, but now, because of a piece of meat, it had become rounded... It really does come down to the right feeding methods.
Su Yao asked, "Do you want to eat more?"
The little snake didn't agree immediately. After carefully considering, it said, "I still need to eat two more pieces."
According to the little snake's request, Su Yao fed it two more pieces.

The sun was setting over the horizon, casting a warm golden glow across the landscape. Birds chirped their evening songs, and a gentle breeze rustled through the trees. In the distance, the silhouette of a small village could be seen, nestled among rolling hills. The air was filled with the scent of blooming flowers and freshly cut grass, creating a serene and peaceful atmosphere. As the sky turned shades of pink and orange, the first stars began to twinkle, heralding the arrival of night

Su Yao looked at the light screen, her eyes lighting up again and again. It turned out that pets could have skills too.
The little snake was also very happy, "I can help my master fight monsters now!"
It didn't know what "strange" meant, but it knew that whoever Su Yao hit, it would hit too!

Su Yao smiled as she touched the little snake's body; it was slippery and cool, quite comfortable.
"Alright, let's set off and fight monsters together!"

Su Yao and the little snake took down quite a few evil spirits and wild beasts along the way. Finally, before dusk, they found the first evil spirit related to the mechanical card.
The process of defeating it wasn't difficult, it was just..
"System, aren't you being too stingy? I worked myself to the bone to take down these three, and I can't even get the experience and the evil spirit skins?!"
[Special species, special treatment.]
This system really made Su Yao feel both love and hate. When it was good, it was truly good, but when it was stingy and greedy, it was really stingy!
"Evil Spirit Skin."
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining 3 Evil Spirit Skins.]
"Master, how much longer do we have to fight?"
The little snake's emotions were conveyed to Su Yao, and Su Yao knew it was tired.
"Let's go back to the hotel first."
Su Yao didn't want to stay any longer either. If she waited until it was completely dark, the Misty Forest would become dangerous. Evil spirits and wild beasts would come out in full force, fighting for territory and swapping places, turning the forest into chaos. The path she had planned in advance would no longer be useful.
When the man and the snake returned to the inn, Ya had already prepared hot water.
Although she hadn't known Su Yao for long, Ya had already basically understood Su Yao's habits. She would want to wash her face and hands first when she got back.
Su Yao really thought this way. She pressed her freshly washed face against Ya and kept pouring out sweet words: "It's so good to have you, Aya. You're so considerate, so wonderful!"
Ya was naturally happy to hear this and didn't mind the little snake clinging to Su Yao. She even generously shared some of the hot water with it.
The little snake came from the water, naturally fond of it, and upon seeing it, it dove right in.
Su Yao saw it playing happily, so she placed the blind rabbit meat by the edge of the bowl and left it alone, letting it eat when it got tired of playing.

The massive and sturdy city gate appeared before Gerard.
The lights on the city gate illuminated the returning young man.
Gerald felt particularly excited when he saw the familiar city. He hadn't expected the return journey to be so quick.
Entering the city gates, Gerard finally felt a bit more relaxed. With only half a day left to reach home, he decided not to rush and instead found a nearby inn to book a room.
The gold coins used to book the room were just earned by Gerald.
The day before yesterday, he passed through Yenan City, the southern capital, and saw many people gathered in front of a pharmacy seeking medicine.
In the south, there are quite a few of these apothecaries, but not many people can afford the medicine. Each shop has its own mercenaries who can reliably travel north to procure the medicine, but this also drives up the cost. Ordinary people simply can't afford these medicines, which is why Gerard chose to spend more time traveling north to buy them.
And that day, coincidentally, there were multiple outbreaks of malevolent spirits, with a record number of people cursed by these evil entities, and countless others suffering ordinary injuries. At that time, every pharmacy in the city was surrounded by crowds, and the first arrivals had already bought out all the supplies. No matter how much money the later arrivals had, it was useless; even the mayor's youngest son couldn't get any medicine.
Gerard appeared at this moment, heading straight to the mayor's house to do business with him.
As the mayor of the southern capital, his voice carried the weight of the entire South, so his abilities and vision were naturally exceptional.
At that time, although surprised by Gerard's youth, he didn't ask much and bought everything directly. However much Gerard could sell, he would buy.
Both of them had many thoughts in their minds, and coincidentally, their thoughts collided.
The mayor, upon hearing that Gerard could provide a stable supply of goods at consistently affordable prices, decided to collaborate with him using government resources to open a community pharmacy.
Gerald thought that he might be able to help Su Yao develop a more stable and sustainable sales channel. Moreover, with the mayor's endorsement, safety wouldn't be an issue.
The two exchanged a smile and immediately made a verbal agreement.
Actually, a formal contract would be better, but Gerard hadn't consulted Su Yao yet and didn't dare to sign it, so he directly told the mayor about it.
The mayor, upon hearing this, felt ninety percent of his suspicions dissipate and immediately agreed to Gerard's request.
A young merchant is a big shot, and a young merchant backed by a big shot is even more so. The mayor is more inclined to believe the latter.
Before leaving, the mayor handed Gerard a new storage bag filled with local specialties, hoping that Gerard could bring them to Su Yao.
The mayor didn't believe that someone who could produce such powerful potions would be petty. Even if she were, he was willing to offer these things to win her favor.
