Chapter 69: Closeness
Everyone did not stop the old snake king from leaving, and the two martial brothers did not have impulses, they just quietly thought about the experience of fighting with the old snake king just now. Liu Duo and a few people came over to congratulate him: "The two martial arts masters are famous, they are really extraordinary, their body skills are elegant and fast, their swordsmanship is light and exquisite, and the flying knife and knife are hitting the target, which is a must!"
& Uncle, don't make fun of our brothers, our shallow skills, the two of us joining forces only brought a little trouble to the old snake king, and it finally escaped because of the situation, but it has little to do with our brothers. Wu Xiuwen smiled, but he knew it very well in his heart.
Wu Dunru didn't speak but looked at the young Bodhisattva Snake, wondering how to deal with this big snake, he thought that since the Bodhisattva Snake is semi-gregarious, and the snake group needs the snake king to lead the snake, then he will catch it back to the island and be the snake king for the hundreds of Bodhisattva snakes that he captured, which is also more conducive to the survival and reproduction of the snake group.
At this moment, the young Bodhisattva snake slowly swam towards everyone, and when everyone was waiting for vigilance, the old beggar who knew a lot about snakes before whispered: "Everyone, don't be impatient for the time being, I observe that this snake is swimming slowly, without attack, the snake's head is lowered, there is no hostility, the eyes are soothing, the attitude is friendly, it does not seem to be coming to attack, let's be on guard first, but don't attack it without permission, so as not to provoke it, and see how it reacts?"
&As you say, be careful and adapt. Lord Liu Helm whispered to everyone. The Bodhisattva Snake had already approached, and its gaze was on Wu Xiuwen, who was standing slightly behind, and occasionally at Wu Dunru.
Wu Xiuwen's eyes flickered, his mind thought quickly, and while slowly walking towards the Bodhisattva Snake, gesturing was a way for people not to worry. Then he spread out his hands to indicate that he was not carrying a weapon, keeping his breathing even and peaceful, his facial expression was natural, and a person and a snake gradually approached, from a few zhang away to one zhang, five feet, and three feet...... Until the two sides were less than a foot apart, Wu Xiuwen paused, and everyone watching on the side also held their breath nervously, even Wu Dunru, who understood why Wu Xiuwen did this, sweated slightly on his forehead, quietly wiped the sweat on his hands, and the two "bamboo leaf flying knives" clasped in the palms of his hands were ready to be launched at any time.
Seeing that Wu Xiuwen paused, the Bodhisattva Qu Snake also stopped, a pair of vertical eyes that should have been terrifying exuded a soft gaze, the snake's head lowered again, and its body swayed slightly. Wu Xiuwen hesitated for a few breaths, then reached forward with his outstretched left hand, slowly approaching the head of the Bodhisattva Snake, the expression on his face was more peaceful, with a slight friendly smile.
The two sides looked at each other without turning around, but the short distance of a few inches seemed to take a long time, and finally, Wu Xiuwen's left hand gently touched the head of the Bodhisattva Snake, both sides shook slightly, and the whole body of the Bodhisattva Snake seemed to stiffen, it seems that the Bodhisattva Snake is not at all easier than Wu Xiuwen, and a pair of vertical eyes quickly contracted several times. Wu Xiuwen forced himself to endure the nervousness, his left hand floated steadily on the top of the head of the Bodhisattva Snake, which was to show his friendliness, and waited for the decision of the Bodhisattva Snake, finally, after a few breaths, the Bodhisattva Snake's gaze softened again, the head was slightly raised, and it was sent to Wu Xiuwen's palm, Wu Xiuwen finally breathed a sigh of relief, and gently stroked the top of the Bodhisattva Snake's head.
The Bodhisattva Snake seemed to be very comfortable with its transparent eyelids closed, and enjoyed Wu Xiuwen's touch. After a while, after the two sides had settled down, Wu Xiuwen moved his left hand down, gently caressing the Bodhisattva Snake's cheek, and finally stopped at its slightly soft jaw. Seeing that the Bodhisattva snake had never moved, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief and put their minds at ease.
Siqu Snake opened his eyes and looked at Wu Xiuwen, his long forked tongue spitting out and swinging in front of Wu Xiuwen, collecting the smell of Wu Xiuwen, familiar with this Wu Xiuwen. After a while, the Bodhisattva Snake gradually became cheerful, his head kept rubbing against Wu Xiuwen's body, and even licked Wu Xiuwen's hand with his long tongue, completely looking like a small pet, Wu Xiuwen was also completely relieved, and while the Bodhisattva Snake was not paying attention, he quietly put away the short sword caged in the wide cuff of his right hand. How could Wu Xiuwen not take the slightest precaution and risk putting himself in danger!
In fact, when Wu Xiuwen first started to make a move, Wu Dunru knew what Wu Xiuwen wanted to do, after all, in his previous life, he had heard that many spiritual animals got along well with life-saving benefactors, and there were many reports in the news about pythons, orangutans, and even males, lions, tigers and other fierce ** living in the same room with humans and living for decades.
And looking at the appearance of the Bodhisattva Qu Snake, Xiàn is indeed friendly, and his attitude towards Wu Xiuwen is particularly special, so Wu Xiuwen decided to take a certain risk and contact it, but he didn't expect the effect to be unexpectedly good.
The book implied that the previous article has explained that this Bodhisattva snake once swallowed strange plants to have a certain degree of mutation, the Bodhisattva snake is a strange beast recorded in the Buddhist scriptures, and it is more spiritual than other snakes, and after this snake has been mutated, its spirituality has increased, and it is still young, and its heart is more pure. Before, at the moment of life and death, it was Wu Xiuwen who took the lead in helping it deal with the old snake king, so that it had a good impression of Wu Xiuwen, and then Wu Dunru also stepped forward to help, and the Bodhisattva Qu Snake also had a good impression of Wu Dunru, so he paid a lot of attention to the two of them before.
And the snake is suspicious by nature, it was only tentatively in contact with Wu Xiuwen at first, but whenever Wu Xiuwen had a little radical action, it was ready to leave quickly at any time, but fortunately, Wu Xiuwen coped with it properly, and finally the relationship between the two sides became harmonious.
The two sides got acquainted with each other for about a quarter of an hour, Wu Xiuwen beckoned Wu Dunru to come over, Wu Dunru hid the flying knife in his hand without a trace, and also came to the Bodhisattva Snake, the Bodhisattva Snake raised his head and stared at him for a while before putting away the guard in his eyes, and let Wu Dunru gently stroke a few times, but Wu Dunru felt that the Bodhisattva Snake's good opinion of himself was much lower than that of Wu Xiuwen, and this situation was not in a hurry, so he just tasted it, and after getting a little closer to it, he took a few steps back or left the space for Wu Xiuwen and the Bodhisattva Snake, and sure enough, this move made the Bodhisattva Snake a lot more comfortable, and Wu Xiuwen played unscrupulously。
Then Wu Xiuwen motioned to Liu Duozhu and others to come over and get closer, but the Bodhisattva Snake didn't buy it, and a sharp "hiss" intimidation sound came out of his mouth to prevent everyone from approaching, and everyone could only give up when they saw this.
"Xiaoxia, it's not early today, let's go back and join the other disciples first!I just don't know what to do with this golden snake?" Lord Liu looked at the sky and said in a low voice.
&&Uncle, as you said before, after the previous battle, the defeated serpents will instinctively give in and retreat when they see the victor in the future. So if we think that this snake is also willing to go with us, but its body is huge, and it is probably a little inappropriate to bring it back to Xiangyang City. I wonder if we can go back today, come back tomorrow to find it, and then take it away when Master is about to leave?" Wu Xiuwen asked Master Liu Duo for advice.
Lord Liu Helm discussed with the old beggar for a moment and replied: "Seeing that this snake is quite spiritual, it must not be willing to coexist with the old snake king, and be suppressed by it everywhere, you can try to communicate with him, and come to him early tomorrow morning, after a few days of familiarity, let him have a sense of dependence on you, and wait until the day he leaves, you can take it away naturally, without using force." ”
& We also have this intention, then there is Xiuwen to communicate with it, and after going back, I will have to trouble helping Zhongneng to make a bamboo basket that is enough to accommodate its body. At that time, whether it is voluntarily taken away or forcibly taken away, it will inevitably be too shocking along the way, and it must always be covered. Wu Dunru thought for a moment.
The next thing is naturally Wu Xiuwen and the Bodhisattva Qu Snake to communicate, this snake seems to understand whether it understands or not, probably understands the meaning of Wu Xiuwen to leave, let it wait here, very reluctant, with the snake head on Wu Xiuwen's clothes for a while before the body swims, a few steps back into a hidden cave not far away, it seems that this is its lair.
