An Jin's eyes crinkled as she smiled at Gu Yin. "I need another small favor from you. Do you have any spare Snake Shedding?"
"HISS~" Gu Yin retreated two steps, displeased. His eyes turned stern; he clearly didn't want to give it to her.
He, of course, knew what she wanted to do with it.
For a Snake Beast, their Snake Shedding was extremely precious. They only shed a dozen or so times in their entire life, and it was specifically used to make clothes for their beloved mates.
But unable to resist his partner's expectant gaze, Gu Yin sighed. In the end, he very stingily retrieved a faded, old piece of Snake Shedding from his nest, scratched off a small piece with his long fingernail, and handed it to An Jin.
An Jin used the Snake Shedding to wrap and seal the stone crock. Then, she picked up a few nearby rocks, each about half the size of her fist, and placed them on the opening to press it down as tightly as possible.
