Chapter 2: The Road Meets the Silver Serpent

Looking around the hut, this place where he had lived for ten years, Mu Yi gritted his teeth and turned around, and tiptoed out.

He came to the edge of the stove in the outer room, gently took a few pieces of dry food, and then walked out resolutely, leaving here, leaving this place where he was born and raised.

In the north in September, it is a bleak season.

From a distance, there is a sea of yellow everywhere, withered grass, fallen leaves, and fields harvested in autumn.

Mu Yi's footsteps were very fast, and he quickly climbed over the mountains, and even saved the time to shoot at noon, just to catch a few more steps. By the end of the evening, he was out of breath.

It's been a day, just like this, at the same speed as trotting, Mu Yi has walked for a day, and at this time he is tired and hungry, feeling physically and mentally exhausted. Walking such a long road for the first time, such a long distance and an unfamiliar road, is simply torture for a ten-year-old child.

"It's going to get dark soon, let's find a place to rest, and if I go on, I'll be tired of my little life!" Thinking to himself, Mu Yi began to look around to see if there was a better place to hide, and he was going to spend the night in the wilderness.

As he looked and walked, Mu Yi carefully observed the terrain. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he saw a small col in front of him, and at the end of the col, there was a small cave faintly, which was the ideal place to live.

After stepping up a few quick steps, Mu Yi came to the small cave and looked again.

"Not bad, it's high and dry, it's good for hiding, this is it. Looking at the small cave in front of him, Mu Yi was extremely satisfied.

Entering the small cave, Mu Yi looked around, it didn't look like there were wild beasts living there, the ground was basically clean, it should be that the mountain wind often blew here.

He turned around and went to the outside of the small cave, got some weeds around him, took them back and spread them in the cave, and then sat on them, leaning weakly against the rock wall. After taking a breath, he took out a small round wooden barrel, drank a few sips of water, thought about it and went out again, found a few more large rocks around, and piled them up at the mouth of the cave.

"After a tiring day, I can finally rest. Mu Yi thought while eating dry food, and then muttered in his mouth: "I'm really tired! The previous life and this life are combined, and they are not as tired as today." I am born to be useful, this is really hard for his mind, strain his muscles and bones, and starve his body and skin!"

"Where did you come from, my friend, like a butterfly, flying into my window. I don't know what I can do, stay for a few days, we have been separated for too long......" humming Sister Mao's thoughts, thinking about her parents in her past life and this life, unconsciously, the little third child who had been tired for a day fell asleep.

Hiss......

Hiss......

Hiss......

"What's the situation?" Mu Yi, who was asleep, was suddenly awakened by a few hissing movements, and in a daze, he sat up all of a sudden, his little head immediately shook from side to side alertly, and his eyes kept looking around.

"Ah, what is this, what is this?" I saw that inside the small cave, there were two green lights, as if they were two pearls of the night, staring at him, and from time to time, there was a hissing sound.

Mu Yi got up quickly, turned around and ran to the outside of the small cave, his reaction was not unhappy. However, before he could get out of the hole, he heard a snapping sound, and Mu Yi, who didn't know the situation, was knocked to the ground, and then the light flashed, and then his body was tight, and he couldn't move.

"How so?" It was only at this time that Mu Yi figured out the situation, and he was at a loss for a while. But in his heart, he thought hatefully: "Damn, it's really sad enough, I'm just resting for one night, do you say that? Lao Tzu was hit by a car in his previous life, and he was strangled by a snake in this life, and this is not the end? No, you can't do this, if you want to kill me, then I'll kill you." ”

I want to think about it, but I also have to put it into action. At this time, Mu Yi began to struggle desperately, he used his greatest strength, but he was helpless, and it was useless.

"What should I do? I can't die here, I still have to see the outside world, I have to marry and have children. It's been two lifetimes, I haven't enjoyed a happy life, and I still want to live forever......" Looking at the huge snake head, the silver light is shiny snake skin, and the small tree-like snake body, a sense of powerlessness fills Mu Yi's body and mind.

"Ahh......h At this time, the head of the silver snake had been raised, facing his head, and the snake core kept swallowing and slowly pressed down.

Looking at the snake head that pressed over, Mu Yi's heart was full of fear, and he twitched his two arms fiercely. God couldn't starve to death the blind sparrow, and his left arm finally broke out of a little gap, and after several struggles, he took it out. There was no time to think about anything, so the little hand was raised, propped up under the snake's head, and the right hand worked harder and harder, and touched the dagger inside the boot.

The snake core bounced back and forth, pumping on his face, hot pain, and by the way, there was a slight tingling sensation.

"Hmm, is it poisonous?" Feeling that his face was wet and sticky, Mu Yi's right hand touched into his boots even harder.

"I finally got it, and it looks like God won't kill me. The moment he touched the dagger, Mu Yi felt slightly settled in his heart. Then, with a lot of stuffiness, the right arm tried to lift up, and with a bang, the right arm finally got rid of it, and stabbed it directly along the way.

There was a muffled sound of "poof" entering the flesh, and the dagger pierced into the neck of the silver snake. The silver snake was in pain, aroused its ferocity, opened its mouth wide and bit down.

Mu Yi saw that things were not good, so he didn't care about the dagger, and pinched the neck of the silver snake with both hands, pushing it out vigorously to buy himself time.

The silver snake was also furious, his body became tighter and tighter, and Mu Yi's strength became weaker and weaker.

"Am I going to die? I am heroic before I understand this world? No, never, if you bite me, Lao Tzu will not bite you?" Mu Yi's ruthlessness came up, and he didn't care about anything else, and he struggled to move to the side with the force of the silver snake's head. The dagger was immediately knocked off by the crook of his arm, and blood creaked out, and Mu Yi's mouth went directly to the wound.

Grunt, grunt, grunt...... Scarlet blood poured down Mu Yi's throat.

"If you don't die, I have to die, fight!" pinching the neck of the silver snake, Mu Yi's mouth sucked harder.

I don't know how long it took, but one person and one snake both fell. At the same time as they fell, a small black dot on Mu Yi's chest near his heart lit up faintly, but unfortunately he himself had passed out and didn't know anything about it.

"Hmm, I'm not dead, I'm still alive, I'm still alive?" I don't know how long it took, Mu Yi sat up staggeringly, his body was full of snake blood, his body was swollen and hot, and he couldn't exert any strength, but his people were still alive after all.

"Am I poisoned? I heard from the hunters in the village that snake gall can be detoxified, so I have to find it quickly. Mu Yi worked hard to lift his spirits, touched the dagger, and slashed vigorously towards the wound on the snake's neck. The wound was a little bigger, and no matter how hard I swiped horizontally, I couldn't move at all. Mu Yi had no choice but to put a hand in it and began to grope inside.

"Hey, what's it? slippery, soft, like a fish bubble?" he tugged hard, and the connection was quite tight. The other hand holding the dagger also reached in, and with a fierce stroke, took out something that resembled a fish bubble.

"This, it should be snake gall, right?" In two lives, Mu Yi has never even seen a snake, let alone a snake gall.

"God willing, life and death are up to you. Mu Yi, who had already collapsed, opened his mouth, put that thing in his mouth, and then fainted gloriously. In fact, he was not poisoned, but he drank too much snake blood, was swollen by the huge energy, and was frightened and frightened for a night, and his body collapsed.

I don't know how long it has been, Mu Yi woke up slowly, only to feel that his body was tight, looking at the sky outside, it was still dark. At this point, his stomach began to growl. After a moment's time, he stood up, accompanied by pieces of rags.

"What's the matter, did you grow taller in one day? Hey, when did your eyesight get so good?" Although it was the middle of the night, he could still see his surroundings blurrily, remembering that it wasn't like this before. Mu Yi looked down at his body, good guy, his shirt was swollen into rags, but fortunately, his pants were fine, but they were a little shorter, and they were obviously one size smaller.

"It's okay, it's okay, as long as it's alive. While comforting himself, he picked up the dagger and walked towards the silver snake.

"I'm sorry buddy, I drank your blood and ate your flesh, and you deserved to die, and it was worth your money. After a few mutters, he picked up the dagger and stabbed it hard.

The first flute didn't move, come again, come again or not, still can't tie it.

"What's going on?" Mu Yi looked through the moonlight and found that there was a faint gray line under the belly of the silver snake, from the bottom of the jaw to the tail.

"Could it be ?......" Mu Yi made a bold guess, and following the faint gray line, he picked up the dagger and slashed it hard. The conjecture was correct, this time it was directly opened, in line with the principle of making persistent efforts, it was very simple to put it in place at one time, and it went straight to the tail.

"This is really not a human life, it's still a good family!" Mu Yi couldn't help but sigh with emotion as he ate a piece of black, mushy snake meat in his hand. Originally, he was still a child, and he opened his mouth at home with food.

Shaking his head, he stood up and straightened out the snake skin, if this thing was brought to the town, it would definitely be sold for a good price?

"Why is there a snake here? The cave is on the side of the road, hasn't anyone else found it here?Or is there something good in the cave, this snake has been guarding, take a look!" Mu Yi picked up a few wooden branches, wrapped some rags, lit them as torches, and walked straight to the depths of the cave.

The cave is not long, and it will be a few feet away to the end.

"Impossible, this is not scientific, how do you look at it, this is not a snake cave?" Mu Yi thought to himself, and began to look around, but there was really nothing.

Suddenly, a faint fragrance came, and Mu Yi's nose immediately smelled it.

"Well, what good stuff is so fragrant?" twitched his nose a few times, and immediately felt that the strength in his body had increased. Mu Yi followed the fragrance and slowly looked for it carefully.

At the bottom of the small cave, about a foot away from the side rock wall, there is a concave rock. At the bottom of the rock, there is a small hole about a foot in diameter, and the fragrance comes from here.

"Fortunately, I haven't grown up yet, my little body is still a child!" Looking at the small hole, Mu Yi muttered, and then slowly climbed into the small hole.

The small hole is not too long, about more than 20 zhang away, it is a slope downhill, the further down, the wider and bigger the hole.
