The carved patterns on the stele are related to the house snake, and the carved patterns on the eight steles are simple but full of all the elements of the story.
A woodcutter, a wounded little snake, this little snake was wounded, not only covered with wounds, but also a pattern that seemed to deliberately mark a severed tail.
"The snake with a broken tail is a house snake, no, the house snake is not a bald tail. What's going on here? The snake on Li Can's stele broke its tail and cried out in surprise.
"What are you screaming nonsense, third uncle, tell me quickly, did the woodcutter save the little snake later, and the little snake was injured and became a beautiful woman to marry the woodcutter." Liu Lan blinked her eyes wide, self-absorbed, her hands clenched into fists, and she put them on her chest, looking like a nymphomaniac. Li Feng was speechless, this girl's imagination is really good, isn't this a sister chapter of the White Snake.
"What you said is not much better, you are a romance version." Li Can pursed his lips disdainfully, muttering in a low voice, but Liu Lan glared, and the kid shrank his head.
"Hmph." Liu Lan snorted and ignored Li Can, and the third uncle Li Fuqing smiled and continued, but this time she really got better from her injuries and became a beauty, but she didn't marry a woodcutter or something in order to repay her kindness as Liu Lan thought. The little snake disappeared after the injury, and the second time the woodcutter saw the little snake was more than thirty years later. One day the old woodcutter went out to bask in the sun, and saw an injured little snake in front of the door, the old woodcutter seemed to know that the seriously injured little snake in front of the door was a little thing that he had saved himself, and the old man still picked up the little snake home with a cane, and slowly healed it with herbs, but the old man could not wait for the little snake to finally recover, and he died.
"Later, third uncle, say it quickly, you don't want to kill people in a hurry." Li Canzheng listened attentively to Li Fuqing telling the story on the stone tablet, but he didn't expect that when it came to the key point, the third uncle actually paused.
"yes, what happened?" Although Liu Lan was a little regretful that the little snake turned into a beauty and left, why did she leave and why was she injured. "What are you anxious about, third uncle, you take a sip of tea." Li Feng took the teapot on the side and helped the third uncle add a cup of tea, and respectfully handed it to Li Fuqing.
"Hehe, it's okay, I'm just feeling very emotional, where did I just go, right the sixth stele." Li Fuqing went on to say that it turned out that the little snake ran back to fight for the snake king, but another snake king born thirty years later was injured again in the snake king fight. I see, the story sounds mysterious. But Li Feng almost didn't pee his pants when he heard it, Snake King, no, this thing appeared and it was okay.
"Later, the snake king slowly got better, but the old man has already died." Li Fuqing said that when the last stone tablet was spoken, he finally explained why the family snake was a bald tail, it turned out that the snake king repaid the old man for saving his life for the second time, and in order to protect the old man's family, he bit off his tail and swore to use venom to make his tail no longer grow, so that his offspring became bald tail snakes. "What, you mean, this snake cave is the place where the old man's descendants bury the snake king, no, there is such a thing." Li Feng was stunned, this is the Snake King's cemetery, really, could it be that the last time I met the Snake King's guardian Li Feng didn't dare to say what he thought in his heart. Could it be that thousands of years ago, there really was such a snake king with wisdom.
"I really didn't expect that there would be such a touching story, Snake King, Li Feng, did you say that we will meet the Snake King on this expedition." A few people rested for a while and started on the road, Li Can, this kid, finally asked him to help because of the third uncle, this guy could only reluctantly glance at Li Feng and a few people, and watched a few people leave. At this time, several people have walked for more than half an hour, along the river valley, although there are some gravel, but the road is quite flat, and further on, you will have to take the mountain road. This place is full of shrubs, vines, and mountain roads that you don't walk for a month, but there is no difference between the surrounding shrubs. …,
"The Snake King? No kidding, if we meet the Snake King, our lives will be gone. Li Feng wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, what are you kidding, these girls are really, most of the stone tablets are legends, they are really serious.
"Cut, have you heard? The Snake King is wise, maybe a super handsome guy. Liu Lan's words directly scorched Li Fenglei's exterior and tenderness on the inside, okay, I will send you over as a lady who eats rats every day when I meet you. Really, Li Feng couldn't smile bitterly, which made Lin Ying and Li Xin, who were a little tired, purse their lips and laugh when they saw it.
"Forget it, let's hurry up, I hope to get to the place before noon." Although this will only be more than ten o'clock, the physical condition of several girls at this time is enough, especially with so many items on their backs, it is already a little unbearable. Li Feng tried his best to help take more items, but it still didn't work, and the more he walked, the heavier the legs and feet of several girls became, as if they were filled with lead.
"Well, hurry up, let's take a break ahead." Li Feng saw that several girls looked a little weak, and took out a bag of dried meat from his backpack. "Eat something and go." Li Feng took out a few small bamboo cups and poured a cup of herbal tea by himself, but the herbal tea made this time put more nourishing herbs, especially the space spring water with midnight spring water is very helpful for restoring physical strength. A few people sat down on the big rocks under the valley and ate something. Starting again, there was already a mountain forest full of vines in front of them, and Fat Boy and Big Spot stopped in front of the vines and weeds.
"It was supposed to be a mountain road." Li Feng stepped forward to observe, there were no tall trees in this area, only some vines, weeds, and small saplings.
"Be careful, everybody, and be careful not to get scratched by branches." Li Feng wielded a firewood knife to split a road, and the weeds had already released three small snakes, including Xiao Lu and Xiao Qing, as well as Fat Boy and Big Spot to open the way in front of him, reducing the danger as much as possible. The whole mountain road was full of vines, and Li Feng was very fast at first, walking less than two miles, and the speed slowly slowed down.
"There are too many miscellaneous trees here, let me see, the small lake place should be on the southeast side, go. We walked along this creek. Li Feng looked around, there is no road here at all, this mountain forest is full of branches, vines, shrubs, not like when he came, it was an abandoned mountain road, only cut the vines that blocked the way, and the branches were good, but this will be densely packed with branches in front of him, and the entire road ahead is closed and dense.
"Yes, it's along this creek, let's go." Li Feng took out a small notebook on which recorded the walking route of the mountain road that the second master said, this road is the old road taken in the past to hunt in the mountains, the creek is very shallow, messy gravel, and there are some landslides from time to time, this place must be the original gravel field.
"Everyone, stop for a moment." Li Feng, who was walking in front, suddenly stretched out his hand and stopped Lin Ying and the others behind him.
"What's wrong, something happened." Lin Ying and the three of them heard the strange cry of the fat boy. "Don't move, I'll take a look." Li Feng cut off the branches that blocked the way in front of him, a few vines blocked the way, Li Feng brandished a firewood knife, and the eight points of strength did not cut these vines too strong, although Li Feng only had eight points of strength, but compared to the ordinary twelve points of strength.
"Li Feng, it's okay." "It's fine." Li Feng looked at the scene in front of him and shook his head and smiled bitterly, how could he encounter these things on the first day. It's so unsophisticated, play anywhere. Li Feng took down his backpack and took out a stack of yellow paper, lit it speechlessly, carefully burned it, and said goodbye. "Don't blame, don't blame."
"Well, there's nothing up ahead." Lin Ying looked at Li Feng walking back, her face was a little unpleasant, and she asked worriedly. "Nothing, let's go, let's take a detour from here, there's no way to go ahead." "Really, you didn't lie to us. How do I smell burning, did you just do something? Liu Lan was very suspicious, and turned around and ran forward a few steps. …,
"Ahh Before Li Feng could say anything, a huge cry sounded, startling countless birds, pheasants, and small animals, and the entire mountain forest rustled in bursts.
"What's the matter, evil, are you alright?" Lin Ying and Li Xin hurriedly ran over when they heard the voice, and after a while, several screams rang out louder.
"Stop screaming, come back." Li Feng really didn't know what to say, these people, why didn't they listen to themselves for a long time, the scene in front of him really made people's scalp tingle, and more than ten two-meter-long snakes were intertwined in pairs. Needless to say at this time, Li Feng didn't expect to see such a scene only five or six miles into the mountain. When people meet snakes to mate, it is the most unfortunate thing, and they should burn yellow paper and reduce bad luck.
"Uh-huh." Several people slowly retreated, but the snake in front of them didn't move, Lin Ying took a photo, made a record, and asked in a low voice. "This snake's hearing is actually not very good, and besides, snakes rarely move places when mating, we are standing downwind, and the smell can't float ahead." Li Feng explained that in the mountains in front of him, there is a stone rock broken tail snake, one of the poisonous snakes, although these snake venom can not kill people, but this kind of poisonous snake is the most afraid of people to see. This kind of snake is the most weird, bite you, it may be fine for half a day, the longest may be a day, two days without finding, and the fangs are extremely small, even if people are bitten, if they don't see the snake, most of them will think it's an ant, or a branch stabbed it. This snake venom had no warning last night, and the onset was short-lived, causing severe local necrosis.
"Let's go, let's get around here, there seem to be a lot of snakes on this mountain." Li Feng could see from Xiao Lu and Xiao Qing's reactions that there were a lot of snakes hidden on the low mountain in front of him, and he and the others might be attacked by poisonous snakes if they were not careful. Although the detour is a bit troublesome, it is the safest way
"Oh, really, I'm going to have to go more." Liu Lan will finally calm down, this girl was still fantasizing about the White Horse Snake King not long ago. There were only a dozen snakes, and they were so scared that they almost didn't call their mother or their father.
Lin Ying glanced at Liu Lan and said apologetically to Li Feng. "Don't suggest it, this girl is scared silly." "Xiaoying, what do you say, I don't have it." Liu Lan was really taken aback, so many snakes and snakes gathered together to do bad things, what a spectacular scene. Thinking about it at this time, there is still a cold war, Liu Lan pouted, a little unconvinced.
"If you're not afraid, it's better to walk from that side, it's a lot closer." Li Feng split a few vines in front of him and smiled and started joking, this mountain road is not easy to walk, and it is a bit far away. At this time, it was already eleven o'clock, and it was about five or six miles away from the lake, and if you walked ahead, it would be about three roads at most.
"I don't want it, Xiaoying, what do you say we eat at noon. By the way, Li Feng, what did you bring? "This time the food is Li Feng is in charge, Liu Lan will be hungry again, the mountain road is too physically demanding, especially in these inaccessible places, it must be inconvenient to walk, the surrounding area is dense bushes, weeds, and broken stones. Carrying a backpack on his body, he stopped from time to time to make some notes, and he was tired of walking and stopping along the way.
"Eat? Haven't you eaten all of what you have eaten? Li Feng was a little puzzled, he had already eaten the jerky he brought just now, pay attention to other food, as well as two packets of potato chips, nothing else.
"What do you say? You won't just bring jerky, you want to starve us to death, no, we will go back now, it's still too late, it's really not to eat, you let us drink the northwest wind these days, no, there is no northwest wind now. Liu Lan shouted, this time Lin Ying and Li Xin didn't stop it, this person is really, he said that he was responsible for eating, but he didn't bring it at all, how could he eat it. Do we learn to eat grass with small flowers? …,
"Just kidding, there's something for you to eat." Li Feng brought two catties of rice in his backpack, oil and salt as ingredients, and there was really nothing else, but it was a week's errand, Li Feng didn't believe it, he couldn't get anything to eat, and he couldn't get something to eat from the space. There is no other fish and shrimp to eat, and a year and a half is enough.
"It scared the hell out of me, really, this joke wasn't funny at all." Li Fengxin said that when he got to the place for a while, he didn't know how to react when he saw the hard rice grains in the backpack. These girls are so naïve that they think they are stupid carrying a bag of bread and jerky.
It may be the excitement of lunch, and the rest of the way, everyone walks very fast. At last they walked out of the mountain forest before half past twelve, and they came to a river valley, where the terrain suddenly flattened, and the distant sun shimmered with silver crystals. A turquoise lake appeared in front of everyone's eyes, not counting a lake, there was a flat place not far from the lake.
"Let's set up camp here today." Li Feng put down his backpack, there were no trees except for a few weeds, Li Feng cut around and cut off the weeds around him little by little. Only a dozen square meters of space are set aside in the middle. The weeds were cut off and put aside, and several girls were a little speechless when they saw that Li Feng was stupid and actually cut the weeds.
"Li Feng, what are you doing like this?" Without waiting for Li Feng to return to Lin Ying's words, Liu Lan hurriedly said. "I think he's idle and has nothing to do, really, Li Feng, take out the food in your bag, starve to death." "There are only a few catties of rice in the bag, can you eat it, miss, I have a double large tent in my bag, as well as two sleeping bags, moisture-proof bedding. There's also a medicine kit and a small generator, and you can see if I can still hold food in my bag. Li Feng was speechless, but the generator, medical newspaper, and water purifier were thrown into the space early.
"What? What should I do, I'm hungry, don't I have the strength to walk when I go back now? Liu Lan listened to Li Feng's words, and sat on the ground without the strength to paralyze, so all the way, Liu Lan had already lost his strength, this is no better than being on the nearby mountain, there is a mountain road, it doesn't take much effort to walk, and there is no burden on his body.
"Don't worry, I'm not hungry for you, really, help quickly, let's get the camp out first." Li Feng took out the lighter, took away the backpack, and with a flash of fire, the weeds in the entire circle burned. Although the girls were still some distance away, they were still startled by the firelight, and they didn't understand what Li Feng was doing.
