Chapter 2 The Serpent Descends from Heaven
Midnight is cool, and the wind blows through the countless strange leaves in the woods, making all sorts of wind chimes like playing.
Ning Hao stayed at his "doorstep", staring blankly at the strange scenery outside the cave, and his heart was difficult to calm down for a long time.
It had been the third day since he realized that he was a mouse, and Ning Hao gradually realized that this might not be the planet he used to live on.
Because there is no place where the moonlight is like here, perhaps because of the different composition of the atmosphere, the moonlight spreads out rainbow-colored ripples in the air for an unknown length of time, gradually spreading out in the dark night sky. It was as if the milky white pigment had fallen into the color dye vat, stirring up ripples layer after layer.
"What a beautiful world..."
A purple light happened to shine in front of Ning Hao's eyes, and Ning Hao was very depressed when he looked at such a dreamlike scene. He knew he would never return to the blue planet.
The wind grew stronger, and the rustle of leaves suddenly became stronger. Ning Hao suddenly felt uneasy in his heart, as if he was being targeted by some kind of natural enemy, and a layer of fine cold sweat broke out all over his body.
"Squeak, squeak..."
The big rat curled up in the rat hole suddenly straightened up and screamed.
More than a dozen little mice also screamed anxiously, and for a while, the squeaks in this small mouse hole came and went, and the noise was abnormal.
"Shhhhh
A huge snake head slowly burrowed in from the hole, it was a crimson snake, black lines and patterns all over the body, strange and cold.
At this time, Ning Hao curled up on the side of the hole, and due to the angle, the snake's heat-sensing organ did not notice Ning Hao's existence.
The long snake body rubbed past Ning Hao's side, and an incomparable fear swept through his entire body. This was a feeling he still remembered until countless years later, even if Ning Hao was already extremely powerful at that time.
This comes from the fear of predators in the genes of mice.
Ning Hao felt that his body was gradually stiffening, and his usually incomparably soft tail was straight and straight like a stick sticking to the ground.
As if a king was inspecting his territory, the crimson snake raised its head slightly, its slender tongue sticking out of its mouth, and slowly crawled towards the little mouse that was frightened in the hole like Ning Hao. In its field of vision, all this is nothing more than a group of living, immobile food.
"Gollum... Gollum..."
In less than 10 seconds since the head of the snake appeared, two little mice have been swallowed by the red snake one by one.
The big rat was stiff at first, just like the little mouse, but as the crimson snake ate the little rat one by one, it began to be able to move tremblingly little by little. The originally dark eyes slowly turned bright red like blood, and the fluff on his body rose like a hedgehog.
"Squeak!"
With a terrible scream, the big rat rushed towards the crimson snake in front of it. It bared its few but unusually sharp rat teeth and bit down on the crimson snake's body.
The crimson snake that was feasting there didn't even glance at the mouse, but its body suddenly stood up like a stick as if it had senses, but it just dodged the rat's desperate bite.
Then the snake body quickly and flexibly turned around the big mouse's body a few times, and suddenly tightened, and the whole body of the big mouse was bound by the snake, and the cry became more and more terrible.
And the red snake that did all this looked unaware, and the snake head was still devouring the little mice one by one, as if what the body did had nothing to do with the snake head.
As the little mice were eaten by the red snake one by one, the squeaking sound of the big mouse became gradually weaker, and the strength of the struggle became smaller and smaller, and the bones of the entire body broke with the crimson snake locking.
And because the internal organs were ruptured, a gurgling of red blood flowed out of the mouth of the big mouse. A burst of bloody aura spread throughout the lair, making it look extremely bloody.
Ning Hao, who was watching the entire bloody process from the side, was still dominated by fear.
"Why can't I control my body, when I was young, I went up the mountain to kill so many snakes, how can I be scared by snakes like this today, why is this mouse body so rubbish, move it for me!"
Not to mention how Ning Hao struggled in his heart here, the red snake had already eaten the little mouse next to him, and slowly turned the snake's head to the big mouse.
At this time, the big mouse was already breathless, and its bones were broken, and it was powerless to struggle, leaving only a trembling trembling.
The crimson snake stared at the dying rat for a long time, like a cruel hunter watching its prey die.
The size of the big rat is not small, and even for such a huge snake, it is not a small project to eat it.
I saw that the crimson snake had a long mouth and covered the entire head of the mouse in one gulp.
Ning Hao's side was finally able to move his body slowly after a constant mental struggle. At this time, the red snake was swallowing the big rat, and it didn't have the energy to notice Ning Hao here.
Ning Hao trembled and stepped away from his short limbs as he crawled towards the entrance of the cave.
Since he was crouching very close to the entrance of the cave at the beginning, this allowed Ning Hao to escape outside the cave by only having to move a few steps.
One step, two steps... The length of a few steps is to cross the distance between life and death.
Just as Ning Hao was about to escape from the ascension to heaven, a sense of crisis enveloped his whole body again.
I saw that the red snake had swallowed the whole rat in its stomach for some time. Bulging buns of meat spread all over the entire body of the crimson snake.
It's like a knotted hemp rope. Ning Hao saw the largest knot near the snake's head, and he knew that it was a big rat that had been swallowed in.
The crimson snake spat out the letter, it slowly raised its head, as if it felt a moving heat source in front of it, it felt a trace of doubt, under its own pressure, there would be a mouse that dared to escape.
Maybe it was because today's eating had reached the limit, or maybe it was because he needed to digest the food in his abdomen well, the red snake that had been staring at Ning Hao for a while lay on the ground again.
Feeling a strong sense of crisis that had been enveloping his body, Ning Hao suddenly felt as if something in his body had been ignited.
His body and limbs were no longer so stiff, and Ning Hao rushed out of the tree hole, not even daring to stop.
"A mouse is a mouse after all, and he has been reincarnated as a mouse, and his courage has become as timid as that of a mouse. ”
"I couldn't even move, I was scared like this by a little snake! But I survived!"
Ning Hao's mind was a mess as he was running, ashamed, sad, excited, and all kinds of emotions were mixed together.
"Shhhh Hiss..."
Ning Hao stopped suddenly, because a small snake was slowly crawling out of the shadows.
The little snake was only about the thickness of two fingers, and it was turquoise, with black jewel-like eyes shining with a strange light.
The bright red forked tongue spit out from the green snake's mouth from time to time, as if locating all of Ning Hao's possible escape routes.
"Bamboo leaf green, poisonous snake?"
A sense of despair shrouded in Ning Hao's heart, this snake was much smaller than the previous crimson snake, but he knew how he couldn't escape from the mouth of this green snake with the body of such a little mouse now.
Compared to the previous inability to move in the rat hole, Ning Hao did not continue to stiffen like then, on the contrary, there was a fiery feeling that filled his body.
And if there was a mirror at this time, Ning Hao would find that his eyes were gradually turning bright red and blood-colored like the big mouse before.
But at this time, he still didn't dare to move for half a minute, because he knew that if he turned around and ran away at this moment, he would definitely be chased and eaten by the green snake immediately.
I saw that the green snake slowly crawled next to Ning Hao, and the slender snake body slowly climbed up Ning Hao's body.
For this green snake, this kind of scene is too much, and this timid creature will never be able to escape once it is entangled by itself.
"Don't be nervous, you only have one chance!"
Ning Hao stared at the green snake that was entangled with him, and took a deep breath. I saw the air breathe into Ning Hao's body, and the entire chest and abdomen visibly expanded. And Zhu Yeqing didn't exert any force when he circled Ning Hao at the beginning, but just circled Ning Hao's swollen body one after another.
Soon, the bamboo leaf green snake wrapped most of Ning Hao's body. The green snake stuck out its tongue and sniffed the prey in its arms.
Just when the green snake was about to tighten its body, Ning Hao saw the opportunity and bit it.
Ning Hao's teeth penetrated through the snakeskin, sinking deep into the seven inches of Zhu Yeqing. Seven inches were controlled, and most of the strength of the green snake was unloaded at once. Ning Hao took this opportunity to spit out the gas in his chest and abdomen, and most of his body shrunk by half, and instantly sprang out of the green snake's encirclement, running into the distance.
The danger had not left, and Ning Hao could feel that the injured green snake had been following him all along.
Most of the jungle creatures are afraid to go out of their nests at night.
The jungle at night is beautiful, but it is also more dangerous. Some creatures that only appear at night hide in the dark, patiently waiting for food to come to their doors.
The jungle was covered with colorful moonlight, and the figure of a small mouse shuttled between the darkness and the moonlight.
And a turquoise snake kept chasing after him, and a trace of blood flowed out from the snake's seven inches. The blood not only left traces on the ground, but its temperature drifted into the air, adding a strange touch to the beautiful and dreamy moonlight forest.
"Poof... Whew..."
A black shadow passed over the green snake that had been galloping. After the black shadow flashed, the green snake also disappeared all at once.
Ning Hao, who was running in front, seemed to hear a noisy tearing sound, but everything returned to calm after a while.
I can't feel the existence of the green snake behind me anymore.
Ning Hao didn't know what was going to catch the green snake, and anything could exist in such a weird jungle, and everything could happen.
All he could do now was keep running, and any short stay could kill him in the dark.
Gradually, Ning Hao felt the incomparably sore limbs, and his eyes blurred.
"Can't stop..."
