Chapter 2 Bamboo Cottage
It's dangerous!
The snake is almost over!
The green snake sank to the bottom of the water, found a place where aquatic plants were luxuriant, hid in it, and remained motionless.
"Huh~!"
The falcon was furious, flapping its wings and circling in the air, and the sand and rocks flew by the stream, and the wind raged.
"Whew!"
"Woohoo!"
A few water arrows shot out of the stream, and the falcon flapped its wings and flapped the water arrows, but unexpectedly underestimated the power of the water arrows, and was a little painful, and in anger, the wings kept waving, setting off gusts of wind.
wind, forming air currents.
The blowing water of the stream swayed, revealing the stones at the bottom of the water.
The green snake found a place where water and grass were abundant, hid in it, and continued to shoot water arrows.
The more he used it, the more proficient he became, and he also figured out the characteristics of the water arrow, this thing didn't need to use spiritual power or anything, it was a bit like instinct, as long as an idea could successfully shoot a water arrow.
What's more, the green snake has no spiritual power now, its body is empty, and the sea of qi has not been opened.
The falcon flails its wings like crazy.
The air currents flowed around, forming one small storm after another, blowing the originally calm and waveless stream, like a great river and sea churning in waves.
The green snake thought that it would not work like this, and it was a matter of time before it was blown out of the water, and he had a bold idea in his heart.
Water.
The falcon continued to increase the intensity and frequency of its wings, and suddenly the wind raged, like a tsunami passing through.
Strange things have happened!
The water arrow is gone, and the green snake is gone.
The eagle falcon suddenly thought that the green snake and the donkey were poor, and let out a high-pitched eagle cry happily.
There was a loud bang, and the storm was raging.
The churning stream swelled high like a wave, lapping on the shore and making countless splashes.
The stream swelled, churned, and rose again......
Suddenly, dozens of water arrows shot out from the churning stream.
Water arrows, shot from waves in all directions.
The spirit of the falcon rose up, and after being shot a few arrows, it had palpitations and fled in fright.
The wind stopped, the stream was calm, and there were no more waves.
The wind and waves have been quiet for a long time.
A green snake swam out of the stream, looked left and right, and the snake felt the smell particles in the air, the smell of the falcon had faded, and it seemed that it had been gone for a while.
Forehead......
Here's the thing, snakes except for being short-sighted.
Their sense of hearing, like sight, is not as good as that of a snake.
Snakes do not have an outer ear, only a middle ear and an inner ear.
The ear does not have a tympanic membrane, tympanic chamber, or eustachian tube, and cannot receive sound waves conducted by air. However, under normal circumstances, the auricular column bone that transmits vibration waves still exists and is very sensitive, except that its outer end is not connected to the periosteum, but to the square bone that hangs in the lower jaw.
Put simply, snakes rely on vibrations and odor particles in the air to discern and receive sounds and information from the outside world.
Therefore, the green snake's move is actually collecting information from the outside world.
Although the falcon is not here, the green snake does not dare to pause, who knows if it will peep elsewhere.
You must know that falcons, lynxes, and wolves, these three types of monster beasts, are the most patient with their prey.
They have an endless range of hunting methods, and they love to play with their prey.
Swimming all the way into the bamboo forest, the snake's body was a little stiff due to the long time it had been hidden in the water.
However, fortunately, I got rid of natural enemies, and I enjoyed it all the way.
Outside the bamboo forest, just after the green snake emerged, there was a black spot flying in the distance, and when I got closer, it was the eagle falcon, with red blood and minced meat on its claws and sharp beak, it seemed that it was hiding somewhere to eat just now.
The falcon circled, did not see the green snake, and flew away again.
Hey?!
At this time, the green snake had swam to the depths of the bamboo forest, but saw a hut.
There is a vacant lot in front of the hut, planted with orchids, laurel trees and other plants and trees at will, probably no one has been taken care of for a long time, it has looked a little corrupt and withered, the courtyard, in front of the steps quietly, birds fly down from time to time to peck, and the green snake swims to it and does not leave.
The cottage has four windows in front of it, and a low wall surrounds the courtyard.
Curious, he swam in.
The cottage is worthy of being a cottage.
The interior area is only one zhang square, which can only accommodate one person.
On the side of the wall, perhaps because of the rain last night, the mud on the roof wall leaked from above, and the water fell drop by drop.
Look elsewhere.
The low wall outside the courtyard is presumably used to block the sunlight from the south, and the sunlight reflects and illuminates the interior.
Where the sun shines, there is a row of bookshelves full of books.
The green snake swam down the house and found that the pots and pans were complete, but he couldn't feel any breath of life.
Presumably the owner of this house has left!
Why dare you come to this conclusion.
Because except for pots and pans, there were no bedding and other living utensils in the house, and even the bamboo chairs and bamboo beds placed in the house were covered with a thick layer of ash.
Very good, let's stay for a while!
After thinking that this place was safe, the green snake decided to live here temporarily, and from then on, we will be in the 100,000 mountains, and we can be regarded as a family with a house.
A certain snake flicked its tail and was so happy!
After all, the concept of the previous life has not been completely eliminated, and I still remember in my mind that my parents have struggled for most of their lives, just for a house.
Today, the house is shabby, but it has a temporary habitat.
Lying in the corner of the door, the green snake could still see outside vaguely.
Due to the rain last night, the cottage is in disrepair, and there are still water droplets falling here.
Moist and cool.
It is simply a natural habitat for snakes, and the green snakes coil in a circle and begin to hibernate.
Previously, every day was a repetitive life: hunting, resting, or being preyed on, and then, depending on the situation, ran away.
Now, find a temporary safe habitat, as long as there is no life-threatening existence, you can enjoy your old age.
Why do you say enjoy your old age?
Zhu Yeqing's lifespan is about 5 years, and he has spent nine years after being reborn, so he is a super old snake, and he may burp one day.
Forget it, what are you doing if you think too much, you have to get by!
One more day is a day!
Go to bed~!
Snake life is so boring.
The sun sets, and the sunset is red.
The green snake opened its eyes, found an unfamiliar breath, and swam out of the hut.
A strange woman wearing a moon-white robe and hands behind her back stood at the door of the hut, surveying the room.
The bird circled around the woman, and the woman laughed and reached out to stroke it, but the bird waved its wings and flew away.
The remnant sun shone obliquely, falling on the bamboo forest, falling on the hut, and falling on the woman's body.
Such as a picture of the eternal mountain and wilderness, it is very beautiful.
When the woman saw the green snake, she came with a smile, and her cold voice carried a hint of surprise: "What a beautiful bamboo leaf, it is fate to meet, and it is not bad to keep it as an eye-catching spiritual pet." ”
The green snake was shocked, opened the snake's mouth humanely, and stared at the woman who was close at hand in a daze.
The woman pointed to the hut behind the green snake and said, "That's my house, since you live in my house, you will be my spiritual pet in the future, you know?" ”
As she spoke, the woman smiled, got up straight, walked past the green snake, and pushed open the door of the hut.
"Ahem~!"
The room was full of dust, and the woman coughed and waved her hand.
"It's ...... What's the situation? ”
The green snake turned to look at the woman whose figure had become blurred.
Just there, he found out...... The lottery holder in his mind was unexpectedly flooded with a dark yellow halo.
Not only that, but the yellow halo starts from the bottom of the lottery holder and continues to spread upward.
Seeing that it covered the lottery holder, there was a "ding" sound in my head.
