Chapter 11: The Serpent
Discard the scales to avoid causing unnecessary numbness.
Walk in one direction, in a straight line. Duan Yuan had to ensure that he walked in a straight line, but fortunately, the terrain here was flat, and the giant snake had been active here for a long time, so the surrounding bushes were crawling on the ground.
It also saved Duan Yuan a lot of effort and physical fitness.
Looking around carefully, Duan Yuan was like a fierce beast at this moment, frantically probing the possible dangers around him, in fact, he found the giant snake in the shortest possible time, so as to at least seize the opportunity.
Even if he couldn't run, at least he could take a few more steps, although Duan Yuan had two legs, and the snake had no legs, Duan Yuan wouldn't think that the snake without legs would be slower than himself.
The book says that when people are on the run, they all want their parents to have two more legs, which is all made up!
I didn't see that snakes without legs ran faster than people with two legs, well! It seems that snakes are leaning against the ground and rubbing to produce displacement changes.
Looking around carefully, the last thing Duan Yuan wanted to find at this moment was that the giant snake's lair was on his route, so it was absolutely impossible to avoid meeting it.
Thinking of this, Duan Yuan had a headache.
Feeling his faint head, Duan Yuan calmed himself down.
"Duan Yuan, don't think nonsense, this kind of thing will definitely not happen!" Duan Yuan could only comfort himself like this.
Gradually, Duan Yuan's expression became more solemn. The land around him was getting more and more wrong, and during this time, Duan Yuan had some understanding of the land under his feet.
The land at this moment is clearly rolling in something, and it is clear that this is the work of the snake. Because of this, the land here is harder, and unlike the land in other areas, because of the serpent's activities here, the huge body is constantly tempering the earth.
The earth is being squeezed all the time, so the ground here is thicker.
Duan Yuan couldn't imagine how big that giant snake was. Because weight determines size, the giant snake that created all this is definitely unusually large.
Such a big snake, it is surprising and shocking. Maybe some good deeds will be seen with their own eyes, but Duan Yuan, who is in this kind of place, that is, near the giant snake's lair, doesn't have such thoughts.
His heart was drumming, except for the warmth coming from his abdomen, Duan Yuan felt as if a sharp sword was falling in the sky, and there was a chill all the time.
made Duan Yuan's hairs stand on end, like a kitten in danger.
"What should I do?" Looking around, there were obvious signs of brandishness, indicating that the giant snake had not been active here for a long time, or that he might be peeking at him somewhere.
caused Duan Yuan to be nervous, and he seemed to feel a pair of cold snake eyes looking at him, as if he was looking at a small snack that was about to enter his stomach.
Although Duan Yuan knew that this was his own psychological effect, he still couldn't avoid imagining it.
Duan Yuan was a little flustered, and after calming his mood, Duan Yuan looked deeply into the distance and glanced back and forth around.
Then he laughed at himself, "Duan Yuan, Duan Yuan, you have no way back, you can only keep walking, even if there is a cliff in front of you, you can't stop, what is a light body? Isn't it a little bigger, so Duan Yuan, you can't delay it like this anymore!"
Duan Yuan felt that he was really getting more and more timid, could it be that he had lost himself these days?
Finally, cheer yourself up and walk more lightly.
There was almost no sound, and Duan Yuan didn't know if he could avoid the giant snake's sight by doing this, but it was still okay to give himself a comfort.
I don't know how long it will take, but walking like this makes Duan Yuan a little uncomfortable. Unconsciously, layers of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but Duan Yuan didn't pay attention to it.
"Hiss!
Suddenly, Duan Yuan's feet froze, and a strange but not unfamiliar voice came completely, and suddenly Shi Yuan's cold hair exploded.
It was like being locked by some terrifying beast, and a cold chill hit. There are no hints.
"Snake!" Duan Yuan slowly spit out such a word from his mouth.
Then his eyes widened, and his gaze seemed to be about to pass through the shade of the trees to look at the giant serpent that frightened him.
The heartbeat accelerated in an instant, pounding and pounding. There was also a faint pain that suddenly appeared, Duan Yuan covered his somewhat aching chest, and his face turned pale.
Breathing involuntarily accelerated, becoming more and more painful, Duan Yuan knew that because of his heartbeat, his injured heart began to be unable to bear it, and there was almost a trace of red blood soaking through.
His brows couldn't help frowning, gritting his teeth, Duan Yuan knew his state, "Calm, I have to be calm, isn't it just a snake? ”
When Duan Yuan heard his words, his heart began to calm down.
Then he paused in place for a long time before wiping off his forehead and turning into a bean-sized cold sweat, mixed with the previous sweat, mixed with the cold sweat just now.
Feeling the wetness from the palm of his hand, Duan Yuan was suddenly shocked in his heart, and then reflected. This time it was almost finished for Duan Yuan, and the reason was because he was too afraid, afraid of that giant snake.
It made Duan Yuan's face blush, a little embarrassed.
Also, Duan Yuan began to think, if he couldn't even pass such a level, then how could he face the even more terrifying Heavenly Burial? Do you have to bow your head in front of the Heavenly Burial? Duan Yuan shook his head vigorously, getting rid of this thought.
He can't lose, at least not be defeated here.
Duan Yuan knew that in front of him, not far away, a giant snake was crawling. Although they were far apart, the familiar aura still made Duan Yuan tense, and that familiar aura was felt from the scales.
You can't go wrong, that's the owner of the scales and the ruler of this area.
Suddenly, Duan Yuan had an impulse to go and see that big guy!
This kind of thought just appeared, and even Duan Yuan himself was taken aback!
"How could I have such thoughts?" Duan Yuan was puzzled, it stands to reason that in this situation, he should be eager to stay away from this place, and even if he wasn't, he shouldn't go to the place that looked like a place of death.
Like a moth to a fire, a moth has nine layers and nine possibilities to be burned to ashes. As for the remaining little layers, there are not even ashes left.
After thinking about it, Duan Yuan still decided to move forward, although he felt incredible. But Duan Yuan was keenly aware that that sense of crisis had not appeared.
This is very abnormal, in the past, even if there was only a slight danger, there would be a warning in the heart. But in this case, there turned out to be nothing, it seemed to be disturbed.
Duan Yuan couldn't help but think, could it be because of the loss of his essence and blood that caused him to lose his senses?
This thought flashed in his heart, and Duan Yuan didn't think much about it. If he didn't feel it, then there shouldn't be any danger, obviously Duan Yuan still followed his own heart.
The big deal is to send a snack to the serpent, as he said. Anyway, I can't live long now, so instead of dying alone, it's better to "fight" with the giant snake at the end, which can be regarded as a way to die!
Carefully shuttling his body through the bushes, Duan Yuan tried his best not to attract the attention of the giant snake.
I don't know if the giant snake has hearing.
"Hiss, hiss!" The voice was getting closer and closer, Duan Yuan didn't even feel it at the moment, he seemed to be a dead person calmly, and when Duan Yuan noticed it, he was also surprised that he was so calm.
Soon Duan Yuan saw a cyan behemoth, covered in cyan and exposed to the air, with no intention of hiding it at all. And there is no shying away from it.
Half-palm-sized scales covered it, like a mighty general dressed in cyan armor.
The diameter is also more than one meter, and it is thicker than Duan Yuan guessed.
The cyan scales flickered with cold light, Duan Yuan knew how hard those scales were, even if a strong person picked up a sharp weapon and slashed desperately, even if the giant snake was motionless, that person would not be able to break through the giant snake's defense.
There was no other reason, because the scales were so hard, like divine iron.
Like a dragon, Duan Yuan secretly swallowed a mouthful of slightly cool saliva, his eyes were full of incredulity, and there was curiosity that was difficult to hide.
Duan Yuan didn't understand why there was such a huge snake here, and it shouldn't be very far from his small room, why this giant snake didn't move in that place.
With a body length of tens of meters, the slightly raised snake head is hideous and terrifying. A pair of eyes were tightly closed, but it seemed to be sleeping, but the snake hyacinth that kept reaching out and pumping was constantly confiding.
Duan Yuan took a closer look and compared it with his own arm, and was shocked to find that the scarlet snake letter was actually comparable to the arm, half an arm. If it is completely exposed, it should be longer than an arm.
"It's so long!" looked at his thin arm, at this moment, Duan Yuan felt that if the giant snake wanted to attack him, would it be enough for the giant snake to plug between his teeth?
There is absolutely no way to survive anyway.
Duan Yuan looked away and looked around, only to see that there were no bones of other fierce beasts except for the giant snake.
Immediately, Duan Yuan realized, the giant snake was probably no different from other snakes, they all swallowed their prey whole, how could they leave bones?
Duan Yuan has another understanding of this, once he is targeted by the giant snake, he is afraid that he will die in the end and have no place to be buried! Because when the giant snake decided to excrete, you had already turned into fertilizer and continued to contribute to the towering ancient trees here.
Thinking of this, Duan Yuan couldn't help but shudder.
Then a strange stream of snow attracted Duan Yuan's attention, and he looked away from the giant snake, ignoring the chill around the giant snake. Duan Yuan's hair stood on end at the moment, and he had to leave here in the shortest possible time.
While the giant snake was sleeping, eh, at least Duan Yuan thought so.
Immediately, as far as the eye could see, the cyan vines were like dragons tightly wound around an ancient tree, and the gully that had been strangled out could be vaguely seen.
I saw that there were also emerald green fruits on it, and if I didn't identify them carefully, I am afraid I would not find them.
Because those fruits were too small, if you wanted to make a comparison, Duan Yuan looked at his thumb, uh, it should be the size of his thumb, but there were actually quite a few.
And that inexplicable fragrance escaped from above.
What kind of fragrance was that, Duan Yuan himself didn't have any words to describe it. But in perception, Duan Yuan knew that this kind of fruit should be the same type as the fruit that the little fox gave him.
It's not about the variety, but it's about the fact that they all belong to things that transcend the mortal level, as for what they are. Duan Yuan didn't know either, and suddenly Shi Yuan felt a desire from his body.
Duan Yuan was taken aback, "What's going on?"
A terrifying devouring desire immediately swept into Duan Yuan's heart.
The eyes seemed to flicker for a while, then vanished for a moment. But the desire to devour in the body has not disappeared.
"Whew!" Duan Yuan exhaled deeply, stroking towards his body, or abdomen, because it was the most restless, "What's wrong, I feel like I'm going to eat those fruits!"
The desire in his body told Duan Yuan that this was indeed true, and Duan Yuan suddenly panicked.
"What's wrong with my body? It would never have been like this before!" Duan Yuan was even more puzzled, all of this was telling Duan Yuan that since the loss of essence blood, it had become more and more unusual for him.
Duan Yuan was at a loss, like a lost child, looking at his body in panic. It seems to be trying to find out why.
But Duan Yuan's body didn't react, but then Duan Yuan's suppression, that strong desire disappeared. Duan Yuan didn't react for a moment, and he collapsed on the ground, clinging to the ground.
A thick earthy smell came, and out came a smell of the earth, and a faint smell of blood.
It almost made Duan Yuan's heart surge, and he almost threw up.
"This feeling is gone, and the warm current is gone, what is happening to my body?"
Duan Yuan was puzzled, but a chill came from outside his body that made Duan Yuan have to suppress the broken thoughts in his heart and look at the giant snake carefully.
Then the body went in the other direction step by step.
At this moment, the giant snake opened its vertical pupils, which were extremely deep, with the ferocity of fierce beasts, as well as endless madness.
