Thinking of this, I couldn't help but be a little dazed, and when I came back to my senses, I saw that Xiao Ding was already talking to my master, to the effect that he was helplessly sorry or something, but the little snake was like nothing had happened, insisting on lying on Xiao Ding's shoulder, and his eyes were full of innocence.

Seeing that I came back to my senses, Xiao Ding smiled at me and said, "Sanwa'er, you're almost done, right?" I'm ready, let's go eat. ”

When it came to eating, my stomach began to be extremely hungry, and the little snake was even more excited, before he was still pretending to be okay and pretending to be innocent, but at the moment he was constantly rubbing Xiao Ding's cheeks, Xiao Ding glanced at me and Master embarrassedly, and had to say helplessly: "Okay, okay, I will allow you to go to my place to play today." You can control yourself and don't burn down the house. ”

The little snake seemed to be very happy.

And at that moment, I suddenly felt that Xiaoding's life here didn't seem to be so lonely, and it seemed that my vision was a little narrow.

Soon, Master and I changed our clothes and followed Xiao Ding all the way out of the grove.

On the way, Xiao Ding still has a lot of words, and has been telling us about the 'stuffy grandfather', saying that it is a kind snake, and it is the ancestor who is responsible for guarding Xiao Teng during this period of time, but it is the most boring ancestor, if it is not necessary, he can lie in one place and remain motionless for many years.

Actually, I'm curious about what these snakes eat on a daily basis?

But these snakes should all be at the 'snake spirit' level, right? In short, every old ancestor I saw should be more powerful than the snake spirit I saw before in that bamboo forest and the tomb of the hungry ghost, and since that snake can remain motionless and hibernate for so long, these old ancestors should be similar, right?

When you reach the realm of the snake spirit, it may already be the realm of 'food qi', and food is not so important.

Thinking of this, I feel a little embarrassed, if Master and I are dedicated to pure cultivation, maybe we can still hope to reach the level of food qi and Bigu in our lifetime.

However, we seem to have taken a different path, which is the path of birth that focuses on art, and many hermitages in the circle think that this is a deviated path, and that we have deviated from the main path of the cultivators.

In fact, this is not the case, Qing cultivation is not stained with cause and effect, it is not stained with red dust, it only strengthens the body, and qi training is the most important.

And joining the WTO is to accumulate merit and bear morality, and it is also a right path, just like Master Hongren suddenly attained the right result one day!

I'm just thinking, although snakes are also a kind of aura existence, but compared to human cultivation, snakes are like this, through many obstacles, can not relax at any time, and I can't even guarantee the morning and evening lessons in the rush, isn't it too slack?

In my thoughts, we had reached the wooden house of the Holy Land, and before we could enter the house, I could already feel the smell of fragrant aroma, and I could not help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

—————————————————— Dividing Lines—————————————————

I have to say that this day in the holy land is very beautiful, and in such a barren mountain and wilderness, I did not expect to be able to eat the ultimate in other people's deliciousness.

Just like this pot of soup, it is made by the blind fish and unknown mushrooms, it is delicious to the extreme, just a mouthful of soup, it actually makes people drink a happy feeling, Master commented that food full of aura can be made simply and simply, and it can trigger people's pleasure.

It seems to be very profound, but I don't care about these theories, I think as long as it tastes good, it is to my liking.

I have long been curious about the blind fish, so after drinking a bowl of soup, I can't wait to clip a chopstick blind fish in the bowl, take a sip, the fish meat will slide to the mouth without thorns, there is no fishy smell at all, but it is a special deliciousness that cannot be described, mixed with a faint sweetness in the middle, and without chewing, I feel that the delicate fish meat seems to turn into water, and it slides into the throat.

Then, the aftertaste exploded in my mouth, and the aftertaste was long, which I couldn't describe at all, and I almost cried when it was delicious.

Just like Ruxue in the past, the skill of cooking with one hand is praised by many people, Xiaoding's method is so rough, but Ruxue can't make such delicious food with her skillful hands.

Therefore, the taste of the ingredients themselves is actually the most important to a certain extent, but as the master who keeps rambling while eating on the side said, in this world, the ingredients that are full of aura and have reached the extreme taste of themselves are becoming more and more rare, and they are even impossible to find.

That's right, I naturally cherish a meal that I have only eaten after several lifetimes of cultivation, and in addition to the blind fish, those mushrooms, and blind shrimp are also supreme delicious.

Because of these precious ingredients, I and the food finally ate a large pot of dried mushrooms and a large plate of bacon from Xiao Ding.

Among them, the little snake is not idle, Xiao Ding will feed it something to eat from time to time, including blind fish, blind shrimp and mushrooms, a small amount, other things, such as bacon or something, no matter how eager the little snake is, Xiao Ding will not give it to eat.

In addition to these, I saw that Xiao Ding fed the little snake some things that had been treated, and I couldn't see what it was for a while, but the master looked at it with a twitch on his face and quite distressed.

It wasn't until later that I learned that what Xiao Ding fed the little snake was actually something that could be called a treasure of heaven and earth up to now, but it was ground into powder, and some dried meat powder that the little snake loved to eat was added, and after being mixed with eggs, it was made like this.

Well, in addition to dog food, cat food, and Xiaoding brand special snake food in the new era, it's just that those dog foods and cat foods are really weak compared to Xiaoding brand snake food.

After the meal, the master couldn't suppress his curiosity and asked Xiao Ding: "Is Xiao Teng a beetle?" ”

Xiao Ding said very directly: "Yes, Xiao Teng is a beetle snake, and it is also the holy snake that we have guarded for generations, and we are eager for it to become a dragon under the protection of my snake gate!" This is also the greatest wish of our Snake Gate lineage. ”

Master and I had already guessed, but after we really learned about it, we were shocked and speechless, after all, there was a gap between guessing and really confirming.

So, in a small talk that followed, I couldn't help but ask Master, "Master, are all the records in the Classic of Mountains and Seas true?" ”

"At least part of it is true? I don't know this, you know, I have a history of becoming a mystery in China that is not recognized, starting from that legendary Great Xia, and it is even more unexaminable in the Yanhuang era before Great Xia, but there are so many classics that have been circulated. In my Taoist records, it was a vigorous era of great witches, and all kinds of miracles emerged, in fact, if the beetle snake really existed, my heart was excited. Because, I have begun to yearn for that vigorous era. That's what Master answered me.

And I, why don't I yearn for that era?

The most important thing in life is time, in this isolated but incomparably beautiful holy place, time seems to pass faster, and when this holy place glows green like a dream, it is time for Master and I to leave.

"I'll send you." Xiao Ding's eyes showed reluctance, but his words were simple, he was holding a small cloth bag in his hand, which contained the fourteen nails that had been pulled out by Master and me.

Master said that waste can also be used, and these fourteen nails will bring me and him some safety.

"Hmm." Master was silent, and I just said something simple.

Goodbye will always come, and those of us who often have to face goodbye have long known what to do in this moment.

There was some silence along the way, Xiao Ding took us to another secret passage, this secret passage is also one of the underground passages, but it can't be compared with the secret passage where the ancestors stayed, but inside, there are still all kinds of weird snakes, worthy of being the Holy Land of the Snake Gate.

But these snakes have no spirituality, so when Xiao Ding took us to this secret path, he also took some caution, the bamboo flute did not leave his hand, and he also prepared some medicinal powder, which was thrown from time to time, probably using some means of snake door to drive away snakes.

This time, we also walked in the secret passage for more than two hours, and when we walked out of the secret passage and saw a crescent moon in the sky, we didn't know where we were on this mountain.

"I hope to see Grandpa Jiang and the three babies again." Xiao Ding stood in the moonlight, and his elegant appearance still looked like a handsome boy, but the sadness in his eyes was a little heavy.

"Definitely." This time it wasn't me who answered, but Master, he was so determined, and this determination was what he called the fate of the so-called great era? Who knows?

Xiao Ding didn't answer, but took out a roll of paper from his arms, handed it to the master, and said, "Grandpa Jiang, map!" And these nails, I'm going to find some snakes and take them anywhere randomly. ”

"Hmm." Master took the map, as if unwilling to face the sadness of parting, and took me to turn around and leave.

At some point, you don't need to say thank you, you just need to keep a friendship in mind!

But after walking two steps, the master suddenly turned around and said to Xiao Ding, who had not left in the moonlight, "We will really meet again, soon!" ”
