Ye Qin cautiously climbed out of the cave, the temperature outside the cave was relatively high, and a heat wave was coming.

Accustomed to the cold and damp environment, contact with the warm ground, and some discomfort, these are still secondary, after all, snakes can regulate their own temperature.

Now Ye Qin is facing the biggest problem, which is the danger everywhere.

There are many natural predators of snakes, such as hedgehogs, eagles, monitor lizards, snake eagles, snake vultures, weasels, cuckoos, and so on.

Not to mention, he is now a tiny black snake, and these creatures can easily threaten his life, so he must be cautious.

Ye Qin didn't want his little life to be picked up with great difficulty, and he would once again become a meal for other creatures.

Snakes are carnivorous animals and there are many types of food.

Small to invertebrates, such as earthworms, spiders, various insects and their larvae, and some vertebrates, fish, frogs, toads, lizards, snakes, birds and small mammals.

Ye Qin used to be a human being, although he said that he has become a snake now, but some concepts cannot be changed, as long as he thinks that he wants to drink blood, he can't get over that hurdle in his heart.

"Forget it, let's look for wild fruits first."

Ye Qin has observed himself, it should be only a young snake, not even poisonous fangs, it should be a non-venomous snake, but what kind of snake it is, he doesn't know.

With such a small body, hunting is simply a fantasy, and any carnivore can hunt and kill itself.

Snakes have poor eyesight and rely mainly on their tongue to feel vibrations or their own 'heat sensors' to perceive the world around them, and will use the rapid tongue sticking out to collect "odor particles" in the air.

This is also the reason why every time humans see snakes, they can see that they are constantly spitting snake letters.

But perhaps because of his cultivation, Ye Qin's sense of smell and vision were higher than those of ordinary snakes, and even his speed had accelerated a lot.

Ye Qin himself didn't know this, because there was no reference around him, just that all snakes were like this.

After all, in his previous life, he didn't deal with snakes, and he never imagined that he would one day cross into a snake.

The slender black snake walked through the grass, and if you didn't look closely, you thought it was a dead branch, and the bright red snake letter shook back and forth in the air.

Everything was magnified several times in Ye Qin's eyes, but his adaptability was good, and he quickly got used to this perspective.

A sweet and somewhat bitter fragrance wafted into Ye Qin's nose.

"It's coming from the southeast, and there should be the food I want there."

He followed the taste, but this time he didn't encounter any natural enemies.

A towering giant tree comes into view.

Of course, this is for Ye Qin with a snake body, in fact, this tree is only more than half a person tall, and an adult can hug it.

The trees were full of red fruits, ripe, and some of them had fallen to the ground, their juice eroding, bursting with red, blackened flesh.

The smell that Ye Qin had just smelled was emanating from above.

I don't know what kind of fruit tree it is, but it should not be poisonous because there are quite a few birds pecking at it.

Ye Qin on the tree couldn't reach it, but there were a lot of fruits falling on the ground, and he couldn't wait to take a bite, and the sweet and sour taste suddenly exploded in the snake cavity.

It feels a little rotten, but it doesn't affect it.

After all, now that his species has changed, he can no longer be as particular as humans, and some of them are already very good to eat.

Ye Qin seemed to be eating a fruit buffet, feasting, and after a full stomach, he returned to the cave along the original route.

He started to meditate again, and then he dug a hole.

Wild fruits are not full, although Ye Qin spends most of his time contemplating, which can greatly reduce the consumption of energy.

But when digging a pit, the physical energy consumed is huge.

He concentrated, concentrated all his strength on the tail, and used it as a tool to dig the earth and dig holes.

The clods of soil scattered around him were arched to the side by his body or head, which seemed to be a mechanical action, but it was a great test of strength and accuracy.

Ye Qin kept adjusting, and finally found the most comfortable and labor-saving way.

During excavation, the scales occasionally rub against the harder clods next to them and accidentally fall off.

Ye Qin loves to be clean, and every time he digs a soil pit with his tail, his lower body will rub the leaves next to the hole, which is also to clean up the sand and stones in the scales.

On this day, he cleaned up as usual, and a green light suddenly attracted his attention.

Looking at the tip of his tail that was slightly glowing green, Ye Qin couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Probably because of the frequent use of the tail, and with the friction of the ground, all the charred and necrotic scales on it have fallen off, and new scales have grown unconsciously.

The green scales are very small and delicate, and they even look fragile because they are not fully opened.

It contrasts sharply with the other parts of the black snake scales.

Ye Qin couldn't help but widen his eyes, "Actually, I'm not a little black snake?" ”

He had always thought he was black, but now it seems that he may not be.

When he first crossed over, the little snake was so miserable that he misunderstood that the original color was like this

Anyway, Ye Qin is not in a hurry, and will wait until all the new scales have grown.

Although these charred black scales are ugly and really affect the appearance, but now he is a snake and does not pay attention to appearance, so he is not in a hurry.

Everything goes with the flow and is not deliberately forced.

The familiar feeling of hunger came from his abdomen, which made Ye Qin couldn't help but sigh.

"I just finished foraging in the morning, but now I'm hungry again, and it seems that eating only wild fruits won't work at all."

Wild fruits are not the main food of snakes, and it is okay to supplement vitamins occasionally, but the main source of nutrition is still to rely on meat to supplement.

Just like now, Ye Qin frequently felt hungry, and Ye Qin could only go out again and come to the fruit tree.

After eating it so many times, he resisted in the bottom of his heart.

No matter how delicious it is, if you eat it all at once, you will get bored.

"It's not enough to just eat wild fruits."

Ye Qin's head was a little dizzy, this was a warning from his body, snakes were carnivorous animals after all, if he didn't hunt for food, I was afraid that he would become the first snake to faint from starvation.

"Looks like we'll have to find a way to hunt some small animals."

Ye Qin observed the surrounding situation and the terrain, there were still a lot of fallen fruits on the ground, and he also saw traces of some small herbivores in the surroundings.

In other words, as long as he waits for the rabbit, there is still hope that he can hunt some small animals.

As for the birds, Ye Qin gave up as soon as possible.

Although there are a lot of them, the birds are too timid and agile, and they will fly when they are blown away, and it is too difficult to catch them, and Ye Qin does not want to consume too much physical strength.

He targets rodents such as voles and hares, which are the best for him.
