Chapter 3 Swallowing the Clouds

Originally, White Snake thought that the incident of rescuing people had been revealed, but she did not expect to see the man collecting herbs again a few days later.

The snake raised its head high and stared at the verbose herb collector opposite with its cold snake eyes. He first took out a few boiled eggs and placed them on the ground, then clasped his hands and bowed three times in a row.

He talked a lot, thanking him for saving his life, and saying that if something happened to him, his wife and children would not survive. In fact, White Snake really wanted to say that if you died, there would be another man to support your wife and beat your children, but he couldn't say it in words.

If you don’t come out, what is the last word about collecting medicine in this mountain? Please take care of me.

White Snake is speechless. He is always cautious in the mountains, not knowing who will bless you and who will have time to bless you.

He turned around and left without eating the eggs.

You are a snake and the other person is a human. No matter whether you are kind or not, you should not trust humans at will. What if the other person poisons the eggs? In the eyes of humans, snakes are food, snake gall can be used as medicine, snake meat can be used to make snake soup, and snake skin can also be used as food.

It can be used as a decoration, and its five-meter-long body is enough to attract human prying eyes. You must not put yourself in danger by taking cheap trust.

When the herb collector saw the white snake turning away without touching the eggs, he thought the snake did not eat cooked food, so he had to pick up the eggs and carry the medicine basket up the mountain to collect herbs.

He is still very smart, knowing that the white snake will not bite him, so he collects medicine nearby. You must know that this area is the white snake's feeding area, and there are no other venomous snakes.

After all the calculations, those who pick herbs will be blessed in the end, just in different ways.

From then on, the medicinal man became a frequent visitor to this mountain...

The white snake twined around the ancient tree on the cliff and observed curiously, watching this bold human being collect herbs, and even deliberately sprinkled herbal seeds to cultivate seedlings. If they met by chance, they would sit down and chatter about how many herbs they had collected recently.

When the whole family is fed, be sure to give thanks and so on.

His verbosity is really annoying to snakes. Only ghosts are interested in those things. In an era when there are no entertainment activities, the gossip news is just a few things that are repeated over and over again.

This man has forgotten whose territory is around him, White Snake thought.

Half a year passed in a daze.

The fruits that were still green on the trees are now fully mature. There will be no snow in the mountains. Although the vegetation is green in winter, the temperature will still drop. When the temperature drops, snakes will become lazy and hunt less. During this period, they have added a lot of fat.

Prepare for sleeping in.

There is one thing as important as eating and practicing.

Recently, White Snake has developed a new habit, that is, when the sky is slightly bright and the valley is filled with clouds and mist, it climbs to the top of the cliff to breathe into the sea of ​​clouds.

In the early morning, when the purple energy rises to the east and the heaven and earth are filled with spiritual energy, it is the best time to practice qi. Legend has it that animals absorb spiritual energy and the essence of the sun and moon to practice. I don’t know the specific details. I just rely on my instinct to coil up on the boulder and raise the snake’s head high and open its mouth to breathe in the mist. This is

An extra ability that comes from taking elixirs to lengthen your body. Swallowing clouds is too far away, but it is easy to swallow mist in the valley.

When the sun rises, the mist in the mountains envelops the purest spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

I'm afraid the first thing that snakes will learn after they learn to practice is to swallow clouds and smoke. It is said that snakes have dragon blood in their bodies, but it is very weak. People often see giant snakes coiled on the boulders and cliffs of mountains and puffing into the morning mist. Legend has it that

The fact that snakes will cause heavy rain after becoming spirits is actually a misunderstanding caused by seeing snakes absorbing mist. The power of calling wind and rain is only the dragon's ability, and snakes can only swallow mist at best.

There are many theories about snakes sucking objects from the air. It is said that snakes will suck frogs into their mouths automatically. The real situation needs to be analysed.

There was a real incident.

A villager in a remote mountain village saw a boy from the same village floating up and down more than a foot high in front of a short cliff, as if he was playing on a trampoline. The boy thought it was fun and invited the villagers to come over and experience it. The villagers were frightened because on the short cliff

There was a giant snake opening its mouth to inhale at the young man, but it was not strong enough. Every time he sucked in half of the force, he ran out of energy and the young man fell down again. Repeatedly...

The white snake raises its head and exhales, and the mist within half a meter will be inhaled into the abdomen and then spit out the turbid air, working hard and steadily to strengthen the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the body.

Cangshan Mountain hides its magic in the clouds, and the white snake raises its head to swallow spiritual energy.

On the top of the cliff, a giant white snake raised its head high, sucking in the rising white mist.

for a long time.

When the fog dissipates and the sun comes out, stop absorbing and twist your body to go down the mountain.

Direct exposure to the sun for a long time will increase body temperature. The biggest trouble is that exposure on the top of the mountain can easily attract the attention of falcons. There is no way, this white body is too conspicuous and is not as safe as those colorful snakes.

When I came to the bottom of the mountain, I saw the herb collector who had just entered the mountain and was wet with dew.

This man's chatter every day can annoy the snake to death. Through the nonsense of the herbal collector, the white snake knows that this is a mountain of 100,000 mountains. After getting familiar with it, he not only talks about family affairs but also the family affairs of the neighbors. The white snake has begun to consider whether to do it for the sake of peace of mind.

Poison him to death.

Sure enough, as soon as we met, I heard her chattering there, so I had no choice but to walk away without looking back.

In the past six months, the white snake has never eaten any food from the herbal collector.

The wordy guy bowed to the back of the white snake as always, and went to take care of his medicine garden with a hoe. In half a year, the herbs in the medicine garden were growing well. The seedlings collected at the beginning have grown up, and two of them are worth the money.

Ten taels of silver.

"When the weather gets colder, I can dig and sell them to make money, buy fabrics to make new clothes for my baby, buy a goat to produce milk, and..."

The herb picker, who was thinking about improving the living conditions of his family, squatted in the medicine garden and muttered, with a happy smile on his stubble-covered face.

With a safe place for collecting medicine and a private small medicine garden in the mountains, he would never have thought that his behavior would have attracted the attention of others...

There are other people in the mountains who collect herbs for a living. When everyone is not doing well, everyone's mentality will be balanced. When someone suddenly collects a lot of herbs and gets more money, it is easy to make others jealous, especially if they have been deep into the dangerous ten years for six months in a row.

There is still something to be gained in Wanda Mountain. The envious people suspected that he had encountered a treasure land in the mountains with endless herbs. Finally, someone could not resist the temptation and called his relatives and friends to start a conspiracy.

In ancient times, it was not uncommon for people to seek wealth and kill themselves.

One day.

The herb collector who said goodbye to his wife and children and carried a basket of medicine into the mountains did not notice three sneaky figures following behind him...

In the early morning, the white snake puffed out mist as usual, and after sunrise, it descended the mountain skillfully.

When he was still three hundred meters away from the medicine garden, his thermal sensor suddenly discovered that there were three more fiery humanoid objects in the medicine garden. The picture composed of infrared rays could not be faked. White Snake was very angry. He kindly asked him to collect medicines in his territory, but he didn't expect it.

To bring so many people in, do you really think that Shiwandashan is the hillside behind the village?

The viciousness of the snake took over, and he swam down the mountain quickly, intending to drive away the humans. If necessary, he could let them taste his poisonous fangs, and I hoped he had brought an antidote.
