"Snakes! There are snakes! ”

When I opened my confused eyes, a snake head about the size of a locomotive was less than five centimeters away from me. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It "hissed" out of the message and groped back and forth in my face, like a signal to eat me.

I don't think it's possible for a person who prides himself on being strong-willed to be indifferent to the situation I am in at this time.

In front of the giant snake head, although my existence is not worth mentioning at all, I don't know if such a behemoth will become interested in something the size of a grain of rice, or eat me with the idea that it would be nice to eat some sugar when I am resting.

Whether it eats me or not is not for me to decide, but at least when it is not eaten, it is imperative to think about how to continue to live.

So, how do you deal with a danger that you can't solve on your own?

"Help! Help me! Whoever it is, please come and save me! ”

Obviously, shouting for help is the wisest way to do it right now.

But surprisingly, my cry didn't pronounce the syllables as I meant it, and I was taken aback by the sound that came through the air into my eardrums - it was the cry of an ignorant baby!

It's my voice!

Although it was a bit idealistic to say this, I knew very well that the baby's cry was the cry I was trying to make for help.

I became a baby.

I don't have time to think about why such an unexplained thing happened, because something more unbelievable than something as bizarre as "I became a baby" happened.

"Phosphorus, you're scared of it."

"Hiss ~ nonsense! Obviously, it was your hanging foot eye that scared it to hiss~. ”

Snake... Snake... The snake is talking?!!!

Surprised, he forgot to continue even calling for help.

"Look, look, it's not crying."

At this time, a one-eyed monster suddenly broke into my field of vision.

The black and round monster was as funny as a piece of poop that had been fitted with one eye by a mischievous child.

Forgive me for using the uncomfortable word "poop" as an analogy, because I really can't find the right words to describe it.

So, the moment it appeared in my field of vision, I was so stupid that I forgot that I was still in the snake kiss, and I actually looked at the one-eyed monster in front of me in a daze.

Because compared to the snakes I've ever seen, the one-eyed poop monster is really something new that has never been heard of.

And this act seems to be taken as a sign that I like it, this monster actually stretched out two black tentacle arms from its own body, uh, let's think it's an arm, I don't know how to describe it exactly.

It wrapped its two tentacle-like arms around my body again and again until it completely enveloped me like a cocoon.

Tsk, disgusting!

I tried my best to resist, but to no avail.

But so far, I have figured out one thing, that is, this seemingly unpopular snake and monster in front of me has no ill will towards me.

The monster shuddered and picked me up and looked at me in front of its only eyes.

But here comes what scares me.

There was an unusual brilliance in the middle of the only eye of the poop monster, not the excitement of seeing food, but the kind of... It seems that he is a first-time father, and when he picked up his son for the first time, he felt cautious and impatient!

Don't... I'm this guy's son!?

In fact... Is it a little one-eyed?

It won't be so unlucky, ill-fated!

This discovery came like a bolt from the blue for me! A sharp warning!

The ominous speculation overwhelmed me!

"I don't want to be a monster! Don't! Don't! ”

I suddenly screamed like this, and of course, the sound was still the cry of a baby.

But this startled the dark one-eyed monster and made it visibly panicked.

"Hiss~ Bimu, you are a Sabi hiss~ I said that you scared it~."

The giant snake on one side made a few swaying motions and began to fight with the Ichimoku monster holding me for my right to use it.

"Let me hug it~."

Hey, you're a snake! Tell me what exactly you want to hold me with, Snake Hyacinth!?

I thought that I didn't want the snake to come near me at all, because a snake might swallow me up at any time and make an after-dinner snack than the one-eyed monster who seemed to be my father, so I cried even more every time it touched me.

As the saying goes, it's better to die than to live, that's the truth.

"Play with your own eggs."

"Hiss~ I'm a female snake! No balls! Come on... Let me hug and hiss~"

"Don't."

"Let me hug and see the hiss~ I must make it not cry!"

"Don't."

"Hiss~ Bimu, this kid is crying louder hiss~ What should I do hiss~?"

Anyone will cry when they are stared at by a monster and a large snake with a head larger than the diameter of a locomotive.

"It's okay, I'll quiet it down right away."

The one-eyed made confident promises.

"Well, that's a human child!"

At this moment, another unfamiliar voice came.

"Yo, it's so good."

"Well, I just heard crying, and I thought Kismei was playing a prank, so I came over to take a look."

"It's not Kismei, it's a human child."

"Hiss~ Look, what Bimmu is holding is hiss~"

"Well, I haven't seen what a human child looks like. Let me take a closer look. ”

Then, a plain red paper umbrella appeared in my field of vision. But what made me curious was that I didn't see the person holding the umbrella. The umbrella circled in the air like a living thing. It just approached me on its own, hovering in front of me for a moment, making strange noises that seemed to be really watching me closely.

"Well, human children are so cute."

I'd love to know how you see me without eyes. But I heard the best news I've ever heard from this umbrella, which was not an umbrella, but looked exactly like it—that I was still a human being.

Congratulations, I'm still a human, not some weird monster. For the appearance of a one-eyed monster, I suddenly felt that it was better to let the snake eat it.

However, I felt that my eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and my braincase was gradually becoming less clear, probably because the baby was sleepy.

……

…

On the other side of the distant sea, submerged by lofty mountains, there is a vast forest, the Forest of the East.

There is a group of youkai living in it.

The youkai live a closed life in isolation and barely communicate with the outside world.

But one day, the calm and peaceful forest of the East was broken by a loud cry, like a fire piercing the night, which was particularly striking in the calm forest.

The monsters were so alarmed that they almost poured out of their nests, like a handful of bait thrown into a pond full of goldfish, and the feeling of a wave of fish swelling.

The monsters follow the sound and find that it is actually an abandoned human baby!

"Run! Humans are coming! ”

Frightened by their horrific discovery, the monsters fled like frightened rabbits and quickly found a place to hide.

……

Every time I hear Uncle Black and Aunt Scale talk about me when I was a baby, I laugh at them.

"Even people are afraid, what kind of monster should they be!"

In fact, for youkai who grew up listening to human stories, the reputation of humanity is deeply rooted in the hearts of youkai.

There is no yokai that is not afraid of humans, just as almost all humans are afraid of yokai.

Uncle Hei said that he was the first youkai to discover me. At that time, I was lying in a small wooden basket, shaking my little head and crying.

The moment he saw me, he made up his mind to adopt me.

This is probably fate.

I'm still a baby, although I don't know why I already have a clear sense of self, and there is a strange common sense that definitely doesn't belong here, but I have forgotten everything about myself, and it's not bad to say that it's an ordinary newborn, so I should be considered a Suhui type.
