Chapter 12: The Rainy Season Arrives
A rainstorm has finally come to an end to the annoying spring drought, and the falling rain has poured into the swamps, refilling the swamps, which were about to dry up, and rejuvenating many wilted reeds, and burying the meadows that had been about to turn into grasslands beneath the water.
Tang Yun was also very happy about the coming of the rainstorm, the swamp had water again, which meant that he no longer had to drill in the mud every day as soon as he went out, and it also meant that he didn't need to run for several kilometers to catch fish in the small lake if he wanted to eat fish.
The torrential rain lasted all day until the next morning, when it slowly stopped, but although the rain stopped, the sky did not clear up, and the black and oppressive clouds still hung in the sky, which seemed to give people a strong sense of depression, and it could be seen that the heavy rain would come at any time.
Tang Yun glanced at the clouds in the sky and didn't pay any more attention, he just wanted to roll around in the water now to wash away all the earthy smell on his body during this time.
With the improvement of his cultivation, not only did his body grow bigger, but also made his speed faster, and it didn't take long for him to come to the side of the swamp that had turned into a puddle of mud before.
After a night, this muddy puddle has been refilled with water, although the water looks a little muddy, but now Tang Yun can't care about it, "plop", he got into the water, his body stirred, while raising the mud at the bottom of the water, he also washed the dry mud on his body.
After taking a bath, Tang Yun, who felt refreshed, had just surfaced, and took a deep breath, and a gust of wind suddenly blew around him, and a large amount of air was inhaled into his lungs, making his body swell in a big circle. After all the one hundred and eight points in his lungs were condensed, his lung capacity was amazingly large.
Now, with his breath, he can even dive underwater for more than half an hour without lack of oxygen!
After all the knots in the lungs were condensed, Tang Yun had already begun to condense the knots of the kidneys, and with the condensation of the knots in the kidneys, he could clearly feel that the blood in his body was changing every day, becoming lighter and more energetic.
That's right! Now Tang Yun just feels that his blood is full of vitality.
If you want to use an analogy, it is that in the past, his blood was like a fully loaded truck speeding on a high-speed highway, and the speed was very fast, but in the same way, in order to maintain this speed, a lot of energy would be consumed. And now, he feels that his blood is like a car speeding on the highway, the speed has not changed, but the consumption has become smaller.
Such a change made Tang Yun very sure that as the number of condensed acupoints on his kidneys increased, his blood would definitely become lighter and more pure.
Tang Yun's body swam comfortably in the water, and after a while, he swam ashore, and was thinking about where he was going to solve the problem of breakfast today, when he found a group of more than a dozen panicked rats fluttering from the water to the shore.
Looking at this group of rats, Tang Yun's heart suddenly became happy, come on, there is no need to think about it now, if you don't eat the breakfast delivered to the door, I am afraid that you will have bad luck in the next ten days and half a month, this is called God's gift not to take but to suffer.
Thinking so in his heart, his body naturally swam up, and as soon as his strong and powerful muscles were twisted, his body was like a black lightning, and he catapulted towards the dozen or so mice, and in a blink of an eye, he pounced on the rats, and his head was raised high, and he bit a big mouse led by him.
The deadly venom was quickly injected into the blood of the big rat, and the cobra's powerful mixed toxin immediately made the big rat's whole body convulse, but after a few breaths, it stopped breathing.
Tang Yun, who succeeded in the first blow, did not stay stupid, but attacked quickly, one bite at a time, but in an instant, more than a dozen mice were bitten to death by him, and only a few of them were left to react slowly, "squeaking" and running through the water into the distance, causing bursts of splash.
Tang Yun didn't bother to chase the rats that ran away, but swallowed three rats in one go, and then slid towards his old nest with one in his mouth.
Although the weather is warmer now, the temperature in the stone cave where he lives is not high, and the ventilation is good, so the food can barely be stored there for three to five days, and he doesn't dare to waste any food now.
After several trips back and forth, until all the mouse carcasses were moved back to the cave, Tang Yun was satisfied with a pile of dry dead grass, concentrating on condensing the knots on the kidneys.
I don't know when it started, it started to rain outside again, this rain was so heavy that it was like someone pouring water in the sky, plus from time to time there would be a lightning bolt piercing the sky, bringing bursts of thunder like bomb explosions, which made Tang Yun look in the cave and feel a little frightened.
The heavy rain has been raining for three days and three nights, and then although the rain is a little smaller, it still has no tendency to stop, the water level in the swamp has risen again and again, and at the highest time, it is even less than half a meter away from Tang Yun's cave entrance, which makes him worry for a while, ready to move his position at any time.
Fortunately, the water did not flood in the end, and as the rainfall decreased, the water level slowly dropped.
Seeing that his nest was safe, Tang Yun was also relieved, after all, he had lived in this place for a long time, and the environment was also very good, so he was really reluctant to give up like this.
And just when Tang Yun thought that his hometown was safe, an unexpected thing happened.
A huge lizard with a body length of two meters suddenly ran out of the depths of the cave, and as soon as it saw Tang Yun, it took him as its own food, and screamed excitedly and pounced on him.
The lizard's movements were very fast, Tang Yun was still surprised by the huge size of the lizard, and after just a little distraction, the big lizard pounced in front of him and bit him seven inches from the neck.
With the distance at hand, coupled with the swift pounce of the big lizard, if any cobra were to change places with him, the end would inevitably be a bite off his neck and a dead end.
However, Tang Yun was not an ordinary cobra, he was also a cultivator who had condensed all the points of the heart, spleen, and lungs with the supreme qi refining technique, although the speed of this big lizard was fast, it was not to the point where he could not resist.
Seeing that the big lizard's mouth was about to touch his neck, the frightened Tang Yun only felt a shock in his heart, his heart jumped uncontrollably, a large amount of blood was injected into the muscles, and a powerful explosive force exploded from the muscles on his body, and his body popped out like a whip seven or eight meters away.
With a "snap", the big lizard bit into the air, making a creepy tooth collision sound.
The big lizard didn't expect that he would bite the air in one bite, he was slightly stunned, and he couldn't help but move, Tang Yun on the side immediately saw the opportunity, and with a bulge of his neck, a venom sprayed towards the eyes of the big lizard.
With a "poof", the venom accurately hit the eyes of the big lizard, but to Tang Yun's surprise, the big lizard that was shot in the eye by the venom did not have the slightest abnormality, as if the venom did not hurt its eyes in the slightest.
"What's going on?"
Tang Yun was stunned, he knew best how powerful his venom was, not to mention that this two-meter-long lizard was an elephant, and he was confident that he could poison it at one time. Now he found that his venom had no effect on the big lizard, which surprised him a little.
Tang Yun, who was a little unbeliever, once again spewed out a stream of venom and shot towards the eyes of the big lizard, which had no intention of dodging at all, and let the venom shoot into his eyes.
This time, Tang Yun saw clearly that it was not the big lizard that could negotiate his venom, but the moment the venom shot into its eyes, a white film suddenly appeared on the eyes of the big lizard, blocking all the venom that was sprayed, and it did not come into contact with the eyeballs at all.
"I'll ......"
Seeing that his long-range attack had no effect, Tang Yun immediately changed his strategy, and as soon as his body moved, it was like a black lightning, and he pounced on the big lizard in an instant, opened his big mouth, and bit the waist and abdomen where the big lizard looked the softest and most fragile in one bite.
But what surprised Tang Yun was that the skin on the softest waist and abdomen of the big lizard was harder than the bark of a tree, and he bit down like this, but he didn't even bite through the epidermis, and there was no way to inject venom into the blood of the big lizard.
At this moment, Tang Yun really felt a little painful, this big lizard was simply his natural enemy, his physical attack could not break the defense, and the venom attack was all resisted, and the other party bit himself, he could take his own life, which was impossible to fight at all.
"Taizu taught us that the enemy advances and I retreat......"
With a silent thought in his heart, Tang Yun didn't entangle with the big lizard too much, turned around and ran to the ground. Seeing that his food was about to escape, the big lizard let out a hissing sound from its mouth, and opened its four small short legs to chase after it.
As soon as he came out of the stone cave, he heard a "bang" behind him. Tang Yun thought that the big lizard had chased it out, but he was startled, and subconsciously turned around to see it, and immediately became happy.
The size of the stone cave leading from the cave to the ground, although Tang Yun's body has grown to nearly two meters long, but he is a snake, his body is long and narrow, and there is no problem in entering and exiting, but the lizard's body length is about the same as his, but his waist is much thicker than him, and when he drills into the stone cave, he is stuck in it, and he grows with his mouth and screams, but he can't move.
