Qian Bao helped Song Ci to the fire: "Take off the wet clothes on your body and dry them, so that you won't be cold when you sleep at night." ”

Qian Bao's already larger suit has been crumpled, looking like an idle gangster; Song Ci was wearing a red cheongsam with a white plush shawl, and a pair of black socks on his feet, and the whole person was gaudy and vulgar.

The two of them who were so embarrassed felt that each other's appearance at this time was the most charming.

Song Ci was baking with her clothes, and Qian Bao kept rummaging around the wall, she looked curious.

"What are you looking for? Take your clothes off and I'll dry them for you. ”

"You dry yours first, I'm looking for something to eat." Qian Bao continued to rummage without looking back.

"Looking for something to eat? How can there be food in this place. ”

Qian Bao ignored her and continued to rummage through the dry hole with a small stick, and after a while, Song Ci heard Qian Bao's laughter.

"Damn, there really is, hehe!"

Song Ci put down his clothes and approached Qian Bao curiously, what made him so excited?

Qian Bao only looked at the things in front of him, and didn't notice that Song Ci had already walked behind him, and he was just about to turn his head to remind Song Ci not to come, when Song Ci screamed in horror came from his ears.

"Ah...... Snake...... Snake...... Ah......h

Seeing this, Qian Bao immediately knelt down in front of Song Ci and hugged the person tightly into his arms: "Song Ci, don't be afraid, don't be afraid!" Those snakes have hibernated, they won't bite, don't be afraid. ”

Qian Bao gently patted her on the back as he spoke.

Song Ci hid in Qian Bao's arms and trembled, his mind was full of the pictures he had just seen.

In a small hole, dozens of thumb-thick small snakes were densely entangled, not moving. Song Ci felt that those little snakes were not entangled with each other, but wrapped around her body.

Song Ci's face was like ashes, his lips were trembling all the time, and his fists were clenched tightly.

Qian Bao gently patted Song Ci's back and explained to Song Ci in a very gentle voice: "Actually, this snake, it's not as photographable as you think." ”

"Snakes are cold-blooded animals, and the temperature in their bodies changes with the environment. When the outside temperature drops in winter, so does the snake's body temperature. ”

"Therefore, snakes will adopt hibernation to adapt to the low temperature environment, during which the snake will not eat or move, and only rely on the fat stored in the body before wintering, and then maintain the minimum requirements of life activities."

"In such a harsh natural environment as winter, the mortality rate of snakes that live in scattered hibernation is very high. If you hibernate in groups, you can increase the temperature around you by one or two degrees and reduce water loss. ”

"This significantly reduces the level of energy expenditure in the body and reduces mortality."

"So snakes will choose dry burrows, tree cavities, or rock crevices for hibernation, and there will often be dozens or even hundreds of different species of snakes in clusters."

"They're not aggressive at this point, so you don't have to be afraid."

Song Ci lay in Qian Bao's arms, listening to his powerful heartbeat and extremely gentle commentary, she regained her soul a little, but she still kept arching into Qian Bao's arms, saying nothing.

Song Ci hid in Qian Bao's arms and refused to come out, Qian Bao had no choice but to hold Song Ci all the time, and the two hugged each other like this, one sitting on the ground and the other kneeling on the ground.

I don't know how long it took, the stomachs of the two of them gurgled at the same time, and Song Cicai reluctantly stuck his head out of Qian Bao's arms.

Qian Bao smiled and rubbed the top of Song Ci's head: "If we want to hold like this again, it is estimated that it won't be long before we will become two hibernating snakes." ”

Song Ci pouted and retracted into Qian Bao's arms, firstly because he was afraid, and secondly, because he was ...... Qian Bao's arms are so warm and comfortable, she ...... A little reluctant to leave.

Qian Bao rested his chin on the top of Song Ci's head: "You go to the fire and wait for me, I will kill those snakes and roast snake meat for you to eat." ”

"Ah......" Song Ci raised his head violently and ran out of Qian Bao's arms.

"Even if I starve to death, I won't eat those snakes."

Qian Bao's jaw hurt when he hit Song Ci's head, looked at Song Ci who was sitting in front of the fire with his knees crossed, smiled and didn't speak.

Survival is a human instinct, when you are struggling on the verge of death, then not to mention roast snake meat, even raw snake meat you will eat.

Qian Bao pulled out a saber from his foot and arm and walked towards the pile of snakes.

Song Ci covered his ears tightly with both hands, not allowing himself to hear a little bit of Qian Bao's voice, but he still had goosebumps on his body.

When Qian Bao came over with a skewered snake meat, Song Ci was so frightened that he screamed again, threw away the clothes in his hand and crawled into the corner of the cave.

"Song Ci, don't be afraid, these snakes are dead."

Song Ci slowly opened one eye, only to see Qian Bao roasting the snake on the fire, making a sizzling sound, which caused Song Ci to tremble, and quickly closed his eyes and pressed against the corner of the wall.

"Well, it smells so good!" Qian Bao glanced at Song Ci and sighed sincerely.

Song Ci felt a chill.

After a while, the fragrant smell of barbecue meat filled the entire cave, and the snake meat in Qian Bao's hand was already roasted to yellow, orange and orange, which made people salivate when they looked at it.

Qian Bao took two strings of snake meat and handed them to Song Ci, Song Ci saw that Qian Bao still had bright red snake blood on his hands, and instantly thought of the picture of those snakes being densely entangled, and quickly closed his eyes and shook his head desperately.

Qian Bao pursed his lips, sat back on the fire with the barbecue, and ate it with relish.

"Well, it's delicious, and it would be even more delicious if I had some more wine."

Song Ci glanced at Qian Bao, seeing that he was eating so much, his stomach, which had been rumbling with hunger, was even hungrier at this time, and saliva overflowed in his mouth, Song Ci quickly swallowed the saliva back.

Qian Bao turned his head to look at Song Ci, who was swallowing saliva, and looked funny: "Are you sure you don't eat it?" If you don't eat it, I'll eat it all, and then don't say I'm bullying you. ”

Song Ci was already dizzy with hunger, looking at the snake meat in Qian Bao's hand, with a tangled expression on his face.

Qian Bao took two strings of snake meat and half-squatted in front of Song Ci and looked at her with a serious face.

"I was on a mission and was trapped in the valley for a month with a dozen brothers, and we ran out of ammunition and food, waiting for us to come to our aid."

"When everyone couldn't hold on, I told them to persevere, as long as they persisted, they would win."

"We went to the cave to catch mice, and when we caught them, we didn't dare to make a fire and roast them, because we were afraid of attracting the enemy, so our brothers ate the life-saving food, even with blood and hair."

Song Ci's eyes widened in astonishment, she never knew that Qian Bao, who was glamorous in front of people, had such an unknown experience.

"At that time, we all thought that those rats were the most delicious food in the world, because those little mice, we waited for the rescue force to arrive, and those rats saved our lives."

"I'm telling you this to let you know that there's nothing more important than being alive."

Song Ci looked at Qian Bao's resolute gaze, her eyes flashed, she pursed her lips and took the snake meat in his hand, took a deep breath, closed her eyes and took a bite, and her eyes widened in the next second.

"It's delicious!"

"Huh!" Qian Bao is angry and funny, this woman ......

Song Ci devoured snake meat, Qian Bao sat back by the fire, took off his clothes and checked the wound on his arm.

The wound was so deep that the bones were almost visible, and there were faint signs of inflammation. Qian Bao frowned and took out the herbs in his pocket.

Song Ci was eating deliciously, and when he saw that Qian Bao was about to deal with his wounds, he hurriedly put down the delicious food and ran over.

"I'll help you, what are you going to do?"

"No, go get it done." Qian Bao took out the herbs without raising his head and cleaned them up seriously.

Song Ci stood on the side, moved his lips but didn't say anything.

Qian Bao put the herbs in his mouth and chewed them, and Song Ci looked at him with a puzzled expression. Qian Bao didn't stop, but tore the white shirt on his body.

Song Ci hurriedly squatted down: "I'll come, you tell me how to tear it." ”

"No, I'll do it myself." With a tear, Qian Bao tore off the sleeve on his right arm neatly, and avoided the wound on his left arm and tore off the sleeve.

Song Ci looked at Qian Bao, who was skillful, and felt that he was so redundant.

The medicine in his mouth was almost chewed, Qian Bao spit out the medicine and applied it to the wound, the wound was suddenly cold and painful, Qian Bao frowned slightly, and bit the torn cloth strip with his mouth to prepare to bandage the wound.

"I'll help you bandage it." Song Ci came to Qian Bao.

"No, I often do this kind of thing myself." Qian Bao didn't raise his head, and refused without thinking about it.

Song Ci stood up and glared at Qian Bao with an angry face: "You are so powerful, you can do everything yourself, then you will marry a daughter-in-law and have children in the future, will you also give birth to your own children?" ”

Qian Bao looked up at Song Ci who suddenly exploded with an inexplicable expression, not knowing where he had provoked her again.

Song Ci squatted on the ground with his knees folded in despair, pouting and looking aggrieved: "I know I'm stupid and can't do anything well." ”

"I'm not as smart as Anya, I can learn everything at once; I'm not as good at dealing with people as Aya, and she can eat well on any occasion. ”

Song Ci snorted: "I'm only going to mess things up, and I'm only going to drag you back." As he spoke, tears rolled down in big, big ones.

Chief Qian suddenly realized that he didn't let her do anything, making her feel that her existence was redundant.

Qian Bao smiled dumbly, and handed the strip of cloth in his hand to Song Ci: "It's really hard for me to get it alone, so please ask Miss Song to help me." ”

Song Ci gave him an angry look: "Don't you know everything?" Why do you want me to help you? ”

"Whoever said that, I won't have a baby."

"Poof!" Song Ci burst into tears and laughed, and took the strip of cloth in Qian Bao's hand.

The beating firelight reflected the shadows of the two on the wall, and a slender woman bent down to help a majestic man bandage his wounds, the beating picture was very irregular, but beautiful.

"That, Miss Song, you tied it too tightly, so it will be bloody."

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm a little loose."

"Xiao Song, you tied it too loosely, so the medicine will fall off."

"Oh, I...... I'll tie it up a little tighter.

This was repeated several times, and the medicine was almost dried before Song Ci successfully bandaged Qian Bao.

Song Ci sat on the ground covered in sweat and panted, and Qian Bao also breathed a sigh of relief.

But he didn't dare to show the slightest expression of disgust or impatience, for fear of accidentally touching Miss Song's sensitive and fragile nerves.
