Chen Xiao was jolted awake.
"What now~" he said, clearly annoyed.
The man glared with bloodshot eyes, "Listen... there's some kind of noise."
Chen Xiao frowned slightly, became a bit more alert, and listened quietly for a while before saying with irritation, "What noise?"
The man shook his groggy head helplessly, and looked around in a daze: "... Could it be that I'm hallucinating?"
"Crick-crack~ crick-crack~" The strange sound appeared again.
This time, Chen Xiao finally furrowed his brow.
The man asked anxiously right away, "What, did you hear it this time!"
Chen Xiao shook his head and pointed hesitantly at the man's face, "I still didn't hear the sound, but your face... it looks strange."
After saying that, Chen Xiao thought for half a second, as if trying to find the right words to describe it.
"Hmm... very pale, yet tinged with black, almost like..."
"You're poisoned!"
He then put on a worried expression and said.
