Chapter 1 Hope for the Rain
An endless mountain range, crawling like a dragon on the vast land. The vegetation inside the www.biquge.info is lush and lush, and the low roar of the beast can be faintly heard.
From a distance, this mountain range is shrouded in a thin layer of smoke, and the sunlight reflects the colorful colors, which looks like a dream, and it is a fairy mountain atmosphere.
However, the people nearby knew that this seemingly beautiful mist contained poison. If an ordinary person who doesn't know the characteristics of this mist enters it, he has to end up with no bones left.
However, on a big tree that can only be hugged by three people halfway up the mountain, there is a delicate young man climbing on it. His eyes stared at a branch without blinking.
This young man has beautiful eyebrows and eyes, but his body is a little thin and looks a little thin. Dressed in a shirt sewn from coarse cloth, his hair was disheveled, and he was tied with a rope.
His eyes were intent, looking at a branch hidden among the foliage, with a bird's nest made of grass.
A meter next to the nest, a two-finger-wide gray-brown tree snake was looking at the nest with covetous eyes. There were three small birds chirping that had just broken their shells. Little did he know that there was a deadly killer next to him, who was gathering momentum.
Although it was only about a meter away from the bird's nest, the tree snake was not in a hurry at all, and lurked quietly, waiting for the best time to make a move.
The color of the tree snake is close to the color of the trunk, and if you don't pay attention to it, you can't see it at all, and there is a highly poisonous tree snake hovering on the branch?
The tree snake is extremely patient, and the delicacy is in front of it without any hurry, as if it had intended to rest here. And the boy also maintained the movement of looking up at the sky, motionless. If it weren't for the slight heaving of his chest, he would almost be considered a dead man.
The sun gradually set in the west, and through the dense foliage, the dots of light sprinkled on the young man's face, unmoved. At this moment, the dead man-like young man's eyes moved slightly, revealing a trace of vitality.
The chicks in the grass nest chirped louder and with a hint of eagerness.
In the distance, an emerald green bird was flapping its wings and flying eagerly towards its children. It seems to be the mother of these chicks.
After arriving, the mother bird folded her wings, her paws firmly grasped the edge of the nest, pecked her child lovingly, and pushed back a naughty nest that poked out of the nest.
The chicks did not appreciate it, and the chirping sound became more enthusiastic, and the wings that had not yet grown feathers kept fluttering, and the pale yellow beak kept pecking at the beak of the mother bird.
Mother Bird had no choice but to open her mouth and let a few naughty children stick their heads over and compete for the food that Mother Bird had worked so hard to find.
After a while, the food that the mother bird had worked so hard to find was snatched up by these greedy little ones, but how could this little food satisfy these little ones who were in the nursing period. The chirping was even more rapid.
No, the mother bird can only spread her wings, circle the sky a few times, with the chicks' thirst for food, continue to hunt tirelessly.
Apparently the mother bird did not notice that right next to her house, a hungry predator had long since lost her patience. Almost as soon as the mother bird was out of sight, the tree snake that had been waiting by the bird's nest for a long time was impatient. The tree snake is about the thickness of an arm, about three feet long, and is close in color to the trunk of a tree. If you look closely, you can see that there is a gray line on each side of the belly of this tree snake, which is extremely inconspicuous.
After waiting patiently for so long, it is finally time for the tree snake to harvest. The chicks chirped eagerly, as if sensing danger.
But it was too late, and the tree snake spat out a dark red snake letter, and little by little approached the coveted bird's nest, and surrounded the bird's nest little by little with its own body.
The chicks' calls became more urgent, more poignant, and their immature wings fluttered incessantly.
However, it was all in vain, and the tree snake bowed its head, opened its bloody mouth, and together with the fishy wind, it showed two fangs and bit the chick in the middle.
In an instant, the chicks stiffened.
The tree snake did not rush to eat, but poisoned the remaining two chicks one by one, and then opened its mouth to take one of the chicks in its mouth and began to enjoy the fruits of its labor.
At this moment, the boy moved, squatted slightly, and at once grabbed a branch that was a foot taller than him. After three or two clicks, he jumped to the side of the tree snake and pinched the neck of the tree snake, looking very agile.
The tree snake curled and wrapped itself around the boy's arm, but it had lost its most advantageous weapon when it was scratched by the neck, and could only be slaughtered.
The young man was not polite, he reached out and took out a small bottle, put it on the mouth of the tree snake, and with a slight force, two columns of venom water sprayed out of the mouth and shot into the mouth of the bottle.
Not long after, when the tree snake stopped spewing venom, the young man carefully covered the mouth of the bottle, and threw the poisonous tree snake out of the way with a flick of his hand.
The tree snake snaked away, and the boy cherished the stone bottle in his bosom, and then looked down at the object that had kept him waiting for almost an afternoon.
But it was the chicks that had been poisoned by the tree snake. It's just that by this time, their color has changed to blood red, and the tender white bones inside can be faintly seen.
Seeing this, the young man showed a smile.
"With the best blood food infused with venom by the Golden Thread Snake, it will never be a problem to pass the Gu God Temple's Spiritual Opening Ceremony. When the time comes, I will be able to become a Gu disciple by looking at the rain. ”
The young man thought about it, but the movements of his hands were not slow at all, holding the bird's nest in one hand, climbing the branches with the other, and he went down the tree in a few moments.
There was a small basket under the tree, and he put the blood food in the rain, put the basket on his back, looked up at the sky, and muttered.
"It's getting late, so I have to hurry back to the village. I heard Abba say that there seems to be a fierce beast on this black mountain recently, and many people have been killed nearby. ”
After speaking, Wangyu walked in the direction of the stockade with the small basket on his back.
As the sun sets, the sky is getting late, but the scenery that was clearly visible is slowly blurred, and in the end it can only be seen in darkness.
Today, somehow, the night was so thick that I couldn't see my fingers. Wangyu kicked a little in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it, but he couldn't help but speed up his pace.
Although there is no light, this road Wangyu has long been familiar with, and his eyesight is beyond ordinary people, so he doesn't find it difficult to walk.
What's more, in the wilderness, the most taboo thing is light leakage, otherwise you will be targeted by those light-loving poisonous insects, and you won't know how to die.
Calculating the distance in my heart, I could see the lights in the village in about half an hour.
Suddenly, a rattling sound reached Wangyu's ears, as if something was approaching.
