Chapter 0003: The Aftermath of the Catastrophe
This floor drain is more than 100 meters away from the mountain road, and not many people even know about it. The eldest son also found a hare when he was wandering around here a few days ago, and he accidentally found it because he was chasing a rabbit. There were a lot of weeds at the entrance of the cave, and he almost fell down, so he was impressed.
The holes in the ground are very small, somewhat like wells in the courtyards of rural northern. The little man looked down, and he felt a cold air rushing from the cave, and he couldn't help but shiver. Picking up a stone and throwing it, the sound of a stone falling to the bottom of the cave was heard for a long time.
"Damn, it's really deep for his grandmother. Hurry up and drop him down. The little man urged. Stimulated by the cold, he also felt hairy all over his body. I don't want to stay here any longer. "Oh" The big man agreed, pulling Xiao Long's leg and putting it at the entrance of the cave. The little man pushed forward, and Xiao Long's whole person slid down, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
"Go" The little man clapped his hands, turned around and left, but stopped after taking two steps.
"Great, big brother. What's wrong? The big man looked at the little man puzzled and asked stupidly.
"You, go find a big rock and throw it down."
"Big brother, it's not necessary, right?"
"If you want to find it, you can find it, where is so much nonsense. Hurry up. So saying, he turned and walked away. The big man smacked his lips, hesitated for a while, looked left and right, and found a lot of large and small stones in the grass, the largest of which was the size of a watermelon, round, smooth, like a big egg, picked up, there were actually a hundred and ten pounds.
It's rare to see a stone like this in the northern mountains. If you are seen by some people with some common sense, you may mistake it for a dinosaur egg. The big one didn't think much about it, he hugged it and threw it down, and immediately there was a continuous sound of stones hitting the cave wall. The big man threw the stone and turned to chase the little one, not noticing that there was a cry of pain from the cave like a cow's roar.
Time passed little by little, and I don't know how long it took, and the perception gradually returned to the body. In the haze, just when Xiao Long felt hungry and hungry, a large pot of tofu brain suddenly appeared in front of him, with a good marinade and a few drops of sesame oil, which was really appetizing.
Gulp and swallow it, and it will be fragrant in your mouth. Xiao Long swore that he had never eaten such a delicious tofu brain in his life, which was more delicious than any delicacies from the mountains and seas.
"It's delicious, it's delicious......" Xiao Long smashed his mouth and swallowed it in a big gulp. Suddenly, as if he realized something, his eyes snapped open.
The scene before the fall replayed in his mind, and his hand subconsciously touched his buttocks. But as soon as he moved his body, there was immediately a burst of pain in his left leg, and he knew that his left leg might be broken. But at this time, Xiao Long didn't care about the broken leg at all, and his hand was scratched on the ass for a long time before he was relieved. Xiao Long's forehead was already covered with cold sweat, and he took a few deep breaths to ease up. Silently, fortunately, the hand bone and the left leg bone should only be a bone crack, and the rest seems to be just some skin trauma.
"The light is so bad, it's not dawn yet, there are so many stars! It's beautiful! Xiao Long looked around, suddenly felt wrong, and looked closely, where were the stars, which were clearly small stones embedded in the stone wall, exuding a faint light.
"Suck ...... Where is this? Could it be that this is the other world mentioned in the book? Did I cross over? Am I not dead? Never going back? I can't go back, my revenge hasn't been avenged, how can I stay here. Xiao Long grabbed the hair with his hand, but accidentally touched the wound that had just stopped bleeding, and the blood flowed out again.
"What the hell is going on?" Xiao Long couldn't figure out the situation at all. He wanted to leave, but his leg bone was broken and he couldn't move. Unable to come up with a way, Xiao Long could only accept the reality dejectedly. At this time, he had time to carefully observe everything around him.
Beside him, a large snake more than ten meters long and the thickness of a bucket lay across the spot, and a big hole was smashed out of the head the size of a lotus pot, and the brains mixed with blood in it had dried up.
Brains?
Xiao Long suddenly thought of that dream, the delicious tofu brain......
Xiao Long didn't actually die at that time, but he fell on his back all of a sudden, lost his breath and heartbeat, and was actually just in a state of suspended animation. Such a state is dangerous, and if there is no accident, it will not take a few minutes to really die. The two tomb robbers were also thieves and threw him into the floor drain without careful inspection.
What no one knows is that this drain is the place where the mountain qi of the entire Xihuan Mountain gathers, and some feng shui masters also call this place the place where the dragon veins gather, or the dragon's lair.
There is a giant snake living here, which has been going on for an unknown number of years, and it looks like it can turn into a dragon at any time.
Today, the big snake was encircling the snake formation and was swallowing clouds and spitting out fog to cultivate, when suddenly a person fell from above and smashed on him, smashing it into seven meat and eight vegetables. When he recovered and found that it was a person, he pounced on him with great joy, and when he was about to swallow Xiao Long, a stone fell 'from the sky'. was supposed to be smashed on Xiao Long, but it happened to fall on the head of the big snake that pounced on Xiao Long.
A big hole was smashed out of his head, and the snake's almost transparent jelly-like brain flowed out little by little, flowing into Xiao Long's mouth.
I don't know how long this big snake has been cultivating, and 80% of the essence of its body is in this brain, if one day, it can ride the weathering dragon, then the snake's brain will become a dragon crystal. Unfortunately, it never had that opportunity again.
This is what happened before and after Xiao Long's coma.
Xiao Long looked up at the mouth of the cave above his head that seemed to be a trumpet moon, and touched it slightly, this hole, I'm afraid it is at least fifty or sixty meters deep, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, not to mention that there are injuries now, even if there are no injuries, don't want to climb up.
Don't rush, can't rush. There must be a way.
Xiao Long silently told himself, his gaze constantly sweeping over the rock wall. However, to his disappointment, he didn't find anything to climb up at all, except for ......
Xiao Long's eyes were attracted by a bunch of black shadows in the corner, and when he looked closely, it turned out to be the snake skin that the big snake had retreated over the years. Thick, there are no less than a hundred.
As the saying goes, snakes have snake paths, and this big snake can't stay here all the time, it always has to go out to find food, and since the snake can get out, then he can also go out. Just find the hole where the snake goes in and out. Thinking of this, Xiao Long couldn't help but feel excited.
His judgment was undoubtedly very correct, and he soon found a passage not far away that was the size of a bucket, the walls of the cave were extremely smooth, and it was slanted downward. Looking at the situation, it is obviously not a natural formation, nor is it a day's work, it is obviously a passage left by the giant snake to enter and exit many times throughout the year.
There was a way to escape, Xiao Long's nervous mood couldn't help but relax, and the whole person also relaxed, feeling extremely tired, slowly closed his eyes, and fell asleep.
I don't know how long I slept, the water dripping from the hole above my head splashed on his face, and Xiao Long gradually transformed. It's raining again outside.
Seeing that the entrance to the cave gradually changed from dim to bright, it was obvious that a day and a night had passed outside.
Stretched, rolled over and sat up. To his surprise, not only did he not feel any pain, but he was extremely comfortable. This gave him the illusion of a dream for a thousand years.
Of course, Xiao Long would not have thought that the reason why he got better so quickly was entirely because of the reason why he swallowed the essence of the giant snake's brain.
