Chapter 10: The Two-Headed Serpent
After school on Tuesday, Xu Bai returned home early, and today he was going out to catch snakes.
He still had the black card left by the man in black, and there was still a lot of money left in it, but he didn't return it at that time, and the man in black didn't ask, so it naturally became his.
But that black card can only be used in places like the black market, with his current strength, there is no longer a man in black behind him to "support", and going to the black market is tantamount to death.
So he can only go back to his old business and make money honestly.
This time, Xu Bai finally got on the bus "as he wished".
Dripped a student card, Xu Bai found a place to stand up, well, there are no seats on the bus.
As early as the beginning, the appearance of buses was to facilitate the travel of people at the bottom, but unfortunately, many people would take the bus with their pet animals.
Originally, it was not allowed to take pet animals on the bus, but there was no use for eggs, and many people didn't care about this regulation at all, and still brought pet animals in.
After all, most people at the bottom only sign one or two pet beasts, and if you let them go out without pet beasts, it is equivalent to separating them from their "other half", how can this work?
Small pet beasts are good to say, large pet beasts are difficult to do, so at that time, the bus was separated, made into two carriages, the front seat people, the back seat pet beast.
But it didn't take long for the problem to go wrong again, and the pet beast sitting in the back compartment often fought in the back because there was no owner watching.
Then, the bus was as it is now: high, without seats, rigid inside and thin outside.
The high shed is made of the roof of the car relatively high, making room for the tall pet beasts, and the same is true for the no seats, allowing people to stand on both sides of the car to make room for the large pet beasts.
The inner rigidity and outer thinness means that the material of the inner shell is denser than the material of the shell, especially the car plate under the feet, the hardness is close to titanium alloy, so as to prevent the pet beast from accidentally stepping on the car plate, which was often the case in the past.
Xu Bai grabbed the handrail on the wall of the car on the side, closed his eyes and pondered, at this time he was still wearing a mask on his face, his mouth, nose, and eyes were sealed, leaving only his ears to hear the sound of standing.
More than half an hour later, Xu Bai got out of the car, took off his mask, and took a big breath of fresh air.
This time period happens to be the rush hour after work, so it is conceivable that his experience in the car is not very good.
Fortunately, he had experience and was well prepared, which also came from a very bad experience in the car......
Once, a gorilla got motion sickness and vomited in the car, and the picture, the smell, Xu Bai will never forget.
After adjusting his state, Xu Bai walked towards the outside of the base city.
The city wall, which is not very high, is in front of a nearly 100-meter-wide avenue leading to the suburbs, and there is a checkpoint at the exit, which is manned, but will not be checked.
There are not a lot of people who come and go, many of them are beast masters who take pet beasts to the wild to do tasks, and there are some strong ones.
But Xu Bai didn't pay attention, he got out of school at four o'clock, and it was now five o'clock when he took the bus, and he had to finish it before eight o'clock, after all, it was very dangerous to stay in the wild at night.
In the past, he only went out to catch snakes on weekends, and this time the time was a little tight, but Xu Bai couldn't wait for the weekend, since he signed the snake belly yesterday, he couldn't wait to raise materials to help it evolve.
That's why he came out at this time, which is also the fastest and most secure way to make money that he has thought of now.
Walking a kilometer into the wild woods, Xu Bai did not continue to go further, this was already the farthest distance he could reach, and it would be dangerous to go any further.
At this distance, all the more powerful wild pet beasts have been cleared by the people who come and go, and the rest are not threatening.
However, it is not a threat to ordinary beast masters, and there are still many dangers to Xu Bai, such as ...... in the jungle Viper.
If he was bitten, Xu Bai didn't have to think about anything, just find a cool place to lie down, he didn't have the courage to bite and cut.
That being said, but Xu Bai, who has a lot of experience, will not be bitten by a snake so easily, if he is really so easy to be bitten by a snake, he will not live now.
Putting down the hiking bag on his back, as soon as he unzipped it, a purple figure quickly came out of it.
The snake's belly was wrapped around Xu Bai's neck, full of curiosity about everything around him, this could be said to be the first time Xu Bai had brought it out.
This time he came out with the snake belly, not only because the snake belly became his pet beast, but also because he wanted to do it this time.
With a snake trap tool in his hand and a snake's belly wrapped around his neck, Xu Bai slowly searched forward, looking at his feet.
The semi-damp soil, the leaf litter is very thick, and there are a lot of ferns, which will be the hiding place of most of the small snakes, and Xu Bai's attention is also here.
Because the trees in this jungle are relatively tall and do not have many branches, so don't worry too much about snakes falling from the trees, if there is, it can only mean that you are not lucky.
Ahead, Xu Bai saw a slowly wriggling figure, and pushed the fallen leaves away with the snake catchers in his hand, revealing a yellow-black snake below-
Name: Brown spotted snake
Attribute: Earth
Level: 1
Quality: Inferior
Status: Health (Anger)
Evolutionary Condition: ......
"Inferior quality garbage ......"
A hint of disgust flashed in Xu Bai's eyes, since he saw that the snake belly was a perfect quality, his current goal was to be at least an ordinary quality.
Continuing to walk forward, Xu Bai found another snake, but it was also of inferior quality, Xu Bai sighed helplessly, he didn't believe it, there were still a few snakes of ordinary quality in such a large jungle.
……
After a long time, Xu Bai searched a large area before he was able to catch two ordinary quality snakes.
It is precisely because of the panel in his mind that Xu Bai deeply felt the "rarity" of ordinary quality, he used to catch snakes, and every time he caught a snake, he could be happy, and finally looked at the stuffed backpack, full of a sense of achievement.
"Can you only look ahead......
Xu Bai looked at the sky that was getting dark, and made a choice in his heart.
If he remembered correctly, there would have been a small river a little further on, and there must have been a lot of snakes inhabiting it.
Touching the purple head of the snake's belly, Xu Bai was firm in his heart, he was going to take a risk.
Following the route he remembered, he walked ahead, and then, not far, a clear river appeared in front of him.
He had only seen it from a distance before, and he hadn't been here because he was worried that some powerful pet beast would lurk by the river.
But now that there is a panel, he can see through the level of the pet beast, so if he really encounters any powerful pet beast, he can also run away in advance.
Xu Bai searched carefully by the river, and the panel couldn't see through the pet beast that was blocked by things, so he couldn't be careless.
A green-skinned frog jumped in front of Xu Bai's eyes, but he didn't care.
Name: Green-skinned frog
Attribute: Water
Level: 1
Quality: Inferior
Status: Healthy (Leisurely)
Evolutionary Condition: ......
A green-skinned frog that can be trampled to death with one foot can also become a pet animal? Xu Bai felt a little funny.
But soon, Xu Bai couldn't laugh, because in the panel, the state of the green-skinned frog instantly changed from "leisurely" to "frightened".
Then, with a "quack", the green-skinned frog disappeared!
At this time, a two-headed snake staggered into the grass in front of Xu Bai, and one of its heads was still making swallowing movements.
Name: Two-headed snake with fine scales
Attribute: Water
Level: 3
Quality: Normal
Status: Healthy (Happy) (Angry)
Evolutionary Condition: ......
I don't know if I didn't feel Xu Bai's existence, or if I just didn't want to pay attention to it, the two-headed snake turned its head directly and was about to crawl away.
But Xu Bai won't let it slip away like this, if you want to say that before, let alone level 3, level 2 he may not be able to eat, but now......
Xu Bai conveyed his inner thoughts to the snake belly, and after the snake belly received it, it directly released it from Xu Bai's neck and flew towards the two-headed snake.
The first battle of the snake belly has begun!
Although this was its first time fighting, the snake belly did not have any nervousness, its intimacy was only to Xu Bai alone, and it was still cold-blooded in its bones.
With the help of the bouncing force of the tail, it landed precisely on the two-headed snake, and then the snake's mouth opened one hundred and eighty degrees, and bit the two-headed snake.
After the blow was successful, the snake belly did not fight, and withdrew according to Xu Bai's order, which was to prevent the two-headed snake from fighting back to death.
At this time, two small blood holes appeared on the back of the two-headed snake, which did not look fatal, but in Xu Bai's opinion, this was enough.
After repeatedly confirming that the state of the two-headed snake on the panel had changed to a "poisoned" state, Xu Bai took the tool and went up.
