[17] Winter is coming

The trees in winter have their own shape, their own charm, and their own looks, and compared with other seasons, they are dry but dignified, monotonous but still abundant, and sparse but still beautiful.

"It's so cold......"

As soon as the drunken moon's tail touched the surface of the water, it immediately retracted, revealing a bitter expression at the same time.

The harvest season has passed, and now the harsh winter is about to begin, the temperature in the water is very low, and there is a biting chill in the air, and the weather is getting colder and colder.

"It's getting colder and colder, and I didn't care about this cold winter, but now I feel deep regret......"

Then again, it's been two full months since the mysterious cave was explored. The forest season has also entered a cold winter dominated by wind and snow.

After two months of changes, Zuiyue's current body size has changed from a 1-meter python to a 1.5-meter ...... Small python.

Drunken Moon is now 1.5 meters long, with an average body width of about 3.5 centimeters, which can already be compared to an adult grass flower snake.

In the wild, a half-year-old small Burmese python can only reach 1 meter, but the drunken moon is also nearly half a year old, but it has far surpassed the python of the same age.

Since the battle with the White Bat, she has once again appreciated her weakness, and for several months she has been hiding in caves, simulating duels with powerful opponents, eating nutritious meals, and always being full. And the amount of exercise every day is very large, which will not lead to overweight, but is very strong.

There is no interference from parasites, so they are killed by the removal of the ailment of Drunken Moon's recovery skill and turned into nutrients!

Having completely gotten rid of the recipes of small birds, medium-sized birds have to be afraid of themselves, except for birds of prey such as eagles, fierce and swift owls, or snake vultures that are born to be the nemesis of snakes, no bird wants to mess with them!

Rats and other small mammals are not a threat, and beasts the size of cats and dogs do not dare to approach themselves easily.

If it is against a snake of the same 1.5 meters, Zuiyue is also fearless, because after a lot of training, she has greater strength than a snake of the same length, stronger explosiveness, faster speed, higher endurance, and has a more flexible tail, and a more intelligent mind.

Even if you encounter bobcats, owls, cobras, etc., you don't necessarily lose to them with buffs!

But if it's stronger, such as a predator like a leopard, you'll have to run away (anyway, your little snake can't outrun a leopard), and then again, the drunken moon has not officially met an eagle.

In addition, the appearance of the drunken moon is not like the average bloated python, but the soft, slender body is biased towards the beautiful snake, like a snakes with the skin of a Burmese python, especially the shape of the snake's head.

Yes, remember that when I was born, I was unusually small, and my brothers and sisters were the same, no matter how small the python was born, it would not be an average of 7~10 cm, generally speaking, more than 15 cm, maybe it is a hybrid of the miraculous Burmese python and some kind of golden snake?

"Anyway...... A creature my age, no matter what breed, is no match for me!"

Oh yes, hippos, rhinoceros, elephants, whales, you guys who were born BT should ignore this sentence!

"Let's hurry up and dig the hibernating nest. "The drunken moon is swimming in the icy water, but fortunately it has just entered the winter, and the lake has not frozen.

In the face of the cold winter, she thought that there was nothing remarkable, but when the bony reality hit her in the face hard, she was speechless, and the cold was indeed the nemesis of snakes.

It's winter, and it's been unusually cold, but it's just not snowing yet, which is a thankful thing.

Zuiyue's home, the cave between the lake and the mountain, was uninhabitable because the entrance of the cave was facing north, and the cold was blowing from the north.

Every day when I sleep, even if I hide behind the rocks in the deepest part of the cave, I can feel the chill of the ice. In addition, there are fewer and fewer prey in winter, and the cold weather makes it more difficult to catch prey due to its limited mobility.

Drunken Moon has to find small warm caves to hibernate in, and by the way, she has to find large prey to sustain the energy she needs to hibernate.

At the end of autumn, the other snakes were ready to hibernate, and now they were afraid that they had fallen asleep soundly, which made Drunken Moon, who was not prepared for the cold at all, very embarrassed.

She spat out letters to collect the scent in the air, and spent the day searching for suitable burrows around the lake, where snakes do not burrow, but only rob the homes of burrowing rodents such as rats.

It was getting dark, and finally Zuiyue found a hare nest 1,000 meters east of the lake, but there were many small rabbits in the hole, and if you drove them away, you would know the consequences...... This made Zuiyue unbearable.

The good nature of human beings is still constantly consuming her animal nature, and she is in the position of benevolence and morality not to touch the group of little white rabbits.

After that, I found many caves, either too narrow, inhabited by mammals with children, and some of them were hibernating.

The kind-hearted Drunken Moon was also embarrassed to snatch the burrow of the hibernating snake, so she had to choose a good place 800 meters south of the lake and start cultivating the cave by herself.

Ordinary snakes can't burrow, but Drunken Moon is not an ordinary snake, she has more strength and a flexible tail, so it shouldn't be difficult to dig a cave......
