He didnt have a name at first. After being abandoned by his family and wandering alone, he was injured and almost died from illness, which also ruined his voice. He had also forgotten some things from when he was younger, so of course, he didnt have a name either. His master picked him up but never gave him a name until he turned twelve and could take care of himself. Thats when he received a knife named "Shūn". From then on, his master called him Shūn Nú, saying that for this lifetime, he would be nothing more than a slave driven by the knife.

  However, apart from his deceased master, few people would call him that way. Most of the time, when they had to interact with him, they just called him "Xun".

  He doesnt care what others call him, nor does he care about his masters words from back then. To him, his knife is the only companion that will accompany him, not anything else.

  Xuē Dāo was a very strange knife, born without a scabbard and too sharp. Even Xuē Nú, at first, had been cut by the blade many times. Later, he got used to it and wouldnt get hurt, so he just wrapped it in cloth as a makeshift scabbard. Its just that when fighting with others, it was a bit of a hassle - whenever the knife moved, those strips of cloth would break apart, and there was no way to keep using them.

  He himself didnt mind these things, but others couldnt help but look down on him. So the leader of that assassin organization specially ordered someone to make a scabbard for him, inlaid with gold and silver, and embedded with seven night pearls. It was too heavy to hold, and the night pearls would glow at night, which was not conducive to his stealth. He pointed it out and dug them out, and the scabbard could finally be used.

  It was used for several years and finally lost in this ambush.

  "The scabbard is gone, isnt that a hassle? Holding it like this will cut your hand, otherwise I can make you a temporary scabbard to cope with the situation."

  Tang Li said, and went to the edge of the Ghost Wailing Forest to cut a thicker branch to make a scabbard for the little male god. However, she used her dagger to grind for half a day but couldnt even cut open a tree branch mouth, so she had to run back and ask the little male god to borrow his knife.

  Xun Nu listened to her finish speaking, moved her fingers, and handed the black straight knife placed beside her to her, "Be careful, the blade is sharp."

  Miss Táng Lí was flirted by the little male gods hoarse low voice, and she excitedly took a knife to cut branches. The knife was indeed sharp, and after cutting for a while, she successfully cut off several branches, so she decided to cut a few more and drag them back.

  She was quick to get things done, and with a few swipes of the whetstone, she marked out a pattern on the wood and began to carve out a scabbard. The branches of these trees were quite strange, with black bark that revealed more black underneath when peeled away. Tang Li crafted a black scabbard from the wood, and finally slid the whetstone into it - a perfect fit. As a makeshift item, it was passable.

  "Take a look, can you?" Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Tang Li handed the scabbard to Xun Nu who was half-reclining there.

  He took the scabbard and looked at it twice, saying: "Very good." In fact, he was a little happy in his heart, because he liked this simple scabbard, which was much better than the one specially made for him by the old leader of the organization. He also thought that his partner would like this scabbard more.

  Tang Li knew he would like it. When this silent and taciturn little male god flipped the scabbard, there were two bright lights in his dark eyes, so handsome.

  Seeing the person he took care of being happy, Tang Li was even happier and simply used another branch to make a simple crutch for Xun Nu. He was injured too severely and could only just sit up, it was still difficult for him to walk, this crutch might be useful in two days.

  There were also some branches, Táng Lí originally prepared to use for burning fire, who knew that these branches would emit a foul smell when burned, and it was difficult to burn them. She had to give up the idea and used these branches to reinforce the shed a bit.

  Xun Nus situation is not good, and the two of them cannot move for the time being. The biggest problem now is food. The trees in Gui Ku Lin are eerie, and the strange black plants that look like they cant be eaten. This mountain of corpses doesnt even have a single blade of grass growing on it, the conditions are extremely harsh. Relying on the box of snacks that Tang Li brought, they wont be able to hold out for more than a few days.

  Finally, Táng Lí had no choice but to set his sights on those carrion birds, wanting to try and catch a few.

  He often fell into a daze and slept, but when he woke up, he found Tang Li working diligently every time. This time when he woke up, he saw Tang Li catching a dead bird that had just fallen to the ground.

  "......"

  Carrying back a tattered burlap sack that was still moving, Tang Li found Xun Nu awake and asked him with a face full of concern if he was hungry.

  He stared at the carrion bird in her hand, his voice low and serious. "This bird cant be eaten, its poisonous."

  Tang Li let out a disappointed sigh, loosened her hand and released the bird that had lost a lot of feathers. The black bird which was ominous just now looked disheveled with its feathers ruffled, made a few strange cries, flapped its wings and flew away in a sorry state, looking rather pitiful.

  She folded the torn burlap sack and put it aside, Tang Li sat beside Xun Nu with a hint of regret. "I originally wanted to cook some meat soup for you." With injuries like this, theres nothing to supplement, how can one recover quickly?

  At first, she had a friend who accidentally fell down the stairs and broke his leg. He stayed in the hospital for a month, and she sent him over 20 days of different pork trotter soups. Now that Little God is all injured, Tang Li thinks she should cook some chicken soup, but since theres no chicken, she can only use birds as a substitute, who knew birds couldnt be eaten.

  "Im not hungry." Xunu shook her head, "You should rest." She seemed to have been busy all the time.

  Tang Li smiled, "Alright then, Ill go take a nap." She hadnt rested much in the past few days, always busy with work. Besides her personality issues, there was also the reason that she wasnt used to it. Suddenly switching worlds and bodies really wasnt easy to get accustomed to. Previously at the North City Lords Manor, she couldnt sleep at night, and during the day, she would follow Sun Damao around in the kitchen, looking for things to do.

  She slept very soundly and woke up when the sky was almost dark. She sat up, rubbed her eyes, and subconsciously looked to the side. Tang Li was immediately frightened awake. The position where Xun Nu had been lying earlier was empty.

  Hes gone, or has something happened? Or...has he gone to the restroom? Tōri stood up and looked around, shouting "Sunao?"

  She shouted several times without anyone responding, and only then did she become anxious, climbing to the top of a nearby small hill to look around. As soon as she climbed up, she saw a stumbling black figure walking towards her in the distance.

  Its Xun Nu. Tang Li hurriedly ran down, running to his front, she only then discovered that Xun Nu used the crutch she had carved for him, and in his hand he was still holding a bloody animal. She hesitated, "You went hunting? Youre still injured."

  She was amazed by Xiao Shengs physique, it had only been a few days and he could already move on his own, if it were her she would have to lie in bed for two months. When she saw the wound on Xun Nus body split open again and start bleeding, Tang Li almost felt heartbroken.

  "Ah, why arent you more careful? The wound has reopened and it must hurt a lot. Where did you catch this? You can barely walk, it must have been very difficult to catch. Come on, Ill carry you back." Tang Li asked one question after another, but Xun Nu tried to answer, only to find that he couldnt keep up with the questions, so he closed his mouth and listened silently.

  When he saw Tang Li making a gesture to carry him on her back, he slightly shifted backwards to avoid her hands. He thought that if he pressed down like this, he might end up pressing her down instead. Why did she think she could carry him?

  "I cant carry myself." Sunu said directly.

  Tang Li, blinded by her infatuation with the male god, regained her senses and could only choose to help him back and wipe away the blood on his wound.

  After the black clothes were taken off, the chest and back were exposed, and the thin layer of muscle was slightly tense due to pain, making the muscle shape exceptionally beautiful. Even the intersecting wounds on top gave a cool and handsome sexy feeling. Xun Nus black hair was not tied up, and it fell on his shoulders. Tang Li swept his hair to one side, thinking that she had accidentally touched a wound and her hand trembled with sympathy for the male god, but this explosive hormone really made people blush and heartbeat, almost unable to hold back.

  Tang Li thought he should say something to shift the attention, and seeing the prey placed aside, he asked: "Xun Nu, what is this that you caught? I dont remember seeing it before?"

  She tilted her head sideways and let her wipe the wound on her shoulder, simply answering: "Wild boar."

  Ground boar? Isnt that another name for anteater? Tang Li looked at the thing again and felt it didnt look like an anteater, probably a species of this world.

  Seeing her not speaking, Xunu hesitated and said: "This is Guikuoyuan, there are no birds that can be eaten, only this kind of burrowing aardvark can be eaten."

  Tang Li couldnt help but stop what she was doing and think, could it be that he thought she wanted to eat the bird so she went hunting for it, but didnt find any birds so she caught this instead?

  How can the little male god be so sweet! Táng Lí shook off her hand and put the blood-stained handkerchief into a small basin made of helmet to rinse, taking the opportunity to calm down, otherwise she really wanted to hug the little male gods head and kiss him to comfort him. How can there be such a good and sweet heart in this world! The little male god is so good, why doesnt the female lead in the original work like him? Is her eyes blind?!

  Calmly finished, Táng Lí pulled on the little male gods hand, pitiful to the extreme, "Ill make you delicious food, wait for me."

  She relaxed her hand, rolled up her sleeves and turned around to carry the raccoon dog away. Xun Nu moved the hand that was just grasped and put it back, as if trying to dispel the slight discomfort from earlier.

  Theyve been getting too close these past few days, his hands that were used to holding knives had never feared the cold and hard, but when they suddenly came into contact with something soft and warm, he felt his heart tremble. This unfamiliar feeling was hard to put into words, he didnt reject it, but the palpitations were too frequent, he thought it wasnt quite right.

  He felt for his sword, picked it up and held it in his arms, feeling the icy temperature, Xun Nu calmed down, but he involuntarily looked at the scabbard.

  The clanging sound broke Xun Nus daze, he looked up to see Tang Li carrying a lot of things back, she made a fire pit, set up an iron plate, the iron plate was smooth and had been wiped clean. Tang Li was burning fire under it to roast the iron plate, then she started slicing the meat of the cleaned and skinned wild boar.

  The chefs basic skills, knife work at least passable, the meat slices that came down from the pear plate were all thin and fat, which she spread on the hot iron plate, making a sizzling sound. She moved quickly, took out several paper bags from her pocket, pinched the powder inside and sprinkled it evenly, then used a small clip to quickly flip the meat slices over.

  The seasonings in this world are also different from those commonly used in her previous world, so when she helped out in the kitchen earlier, she saw those slightly different seasonings and casually collected some, which is a small habit of being a chef. Who would have thought that they would come in handy at this time?

  For someone who likes to carry a lot of things with them in case of an emergency, having the right thing at the right time can be very satisfying.

  Thinking about it again, Tang Li was filled with strength at the thought of feeding her little male god delicious food later - this is probably the power of chasing stars.

  "Come, Su Nu, have a taste."

  Sūnú: Very delicious, better than all the wild boar meat Ive had before.

  "Is it delicious?"

  Xunu nodded and ate the remaining few pieces of meat.

  Tang Li looked at the two small bright spots in his pitch-black eyes, feeling satisfied, and reached out to give him more meat. "Eat more, eat more, theres a lot, youre too thin, you must eat more."

  She paused for a moment, looking at her slender arms and legs, then glanced at her own figure which was one size larger than hers, and began to have a little self-doubt.
