The giant face rushed toward him, and Chen Ran subconsciously hid aside, but before he could avoid the giant face, he had already shrunk back, as if he just wanted to scare him.
Chen Ran had been mentally prepared for it, but was not frightened by it. At this moment, the giant face emerged from the cracks in the stone, causing its body to be revealed in front of Chen Ran.
What shocked and surprised Chen Ran was that this giant face turned out to be a giant snake with white stripes and green spots that was as thick as a bucket.
This was not what surprised Chen Ran the most. What surprised Chen Ran the most was that the giant snake raised its huge triangular head towards him and purred twice like an old hen before looking down.
A little boy stood under its neck at some point.
The moment he looked at the little boy, Chen Ran clearly felt that both the look in the giant snake's eyes and the aura emanating from the giant snake's body had changed.
After looking at the little boy twice, the giant snake gently touched the little boy's head twice with its huge snake head, and then even stretched out its snake to touch the little boy's face which was covered with red paint.
The movements were slow and gentle, and the expression and posture were clearly that of a mother licking her own child...
The little boy not only did not reject the giant snake's move, but instead held the giant snake's neck firmly with both hands, as if a child who could not find his mother suddenly saw his mother.
The giant snake seemed to sense the fear and sadness in the little boy's heart. It lowered its head, allowing the little boy to hug it more easily.
By this time, even a fool can see that the relationship between the giant snake and the little boy is extraordinary. Chen Ran is not a fool, so he can naturally see this.
Although he was surprised, Chen Ran could also understand. As the saying goes, how can humans be ruthless if they are not grass and trees? After getting along for a long time, there will always be some feelings. Although animals cannot be compared with humans, when it comes to talking about it, sometimes they may be more ruthless than humans.
Be affectionate and righteous.
At this time, Chen Ran also thought about why the little boy threw stones into the cracks. Obviously, this was the signal they agreed upon. If the little boy threw stones into the cracks, the giant snake would come out to see the little boy.
Although Chen Ran was relieved, he didn't dare to act rashly for a while. He could only watch the giant snake comfort the little boy in his own way.
The giant snake rubbed its huge snake head against the little boy affectionately for a few times, then put the snake's head on the ground and looked back at the little boy as if to let the little boy ride on it.
The little boy was holding the giant snake's neck. When the giant snake put its head on the ground, he lay directly on the giant snake's neck. Then he put his head against the giant snake's face but turned his head to look at Chen Ran from time to time.
It seems to be telling the giant snake "Chen Ran".
The giant snake raised its head and looked at Chen Ran, but at this time, the hostility and vigilance in its eyes when it looked at Chen Ran were no longer there, but with a trace of gratitude. After a moment, he even raised his head
The snakehead approached Chen Ran.
Chen Ran naturally felt the change in the giant snake's attitude towards Chen Ran. He was a little surprised. He didn't know how the little boy communicated with the giant snake.
Realizing that the giant snake was no longer hostile to him, Chen Ran secretly guarded himself, but did not dodge. Sure enough, after the giant snake approached him with its huge head raised, it just rubbed against his chest twice before taking it back.
.
"Woooo..."
The giant snake screamed at Chen Ran in a low voice, as if it was trying to tell Chen Ran something. After telling Chen Ran for a while, it lowered its head and carried the little boy back to the stone bit by bit.
However, before the snake's head got into the stone crevice, it raised its head and hissed twice at Chen Ran.
"It...what does it mean?" It wasn't until the giant snake got into the cracks in the rocks and disappeared that Wu Bing dared to come to Chen Ran.
Chen Ran seemed to be stunned for a moment, and it took him a while to react and reply: "It asked us to go in with him."
At first, Chen Ran didn't understand the meaning of the giant snake. He thought the giant snake was just grateful to him for saving the little boy, but later he made another discovery and understood the meaning of the giant snake.
"What does it want to do?" Wu Bing was very surprised. When he first saw the giant snake, he was frightened. But then he saw the strange behavior of the giant snake and he was not so scared anymore. He was more surprised.
I haven't seen anything like this before.
After Chen Ran answered Wu Bing, he tied the rope that was not tied just now. He threw the rope into the crack of the stone and then said: "It will not survive. It probably wants to entrust the child to us. First,
Don’t ask so many questions, let’s go down and take a look.”
Chen Ran didn't care to talk to Wu Bing anymore, and just grabbed the rope and got into the crevice of the stone.
He didn't notice this at first, but later he felt something was wrong with the giant snake and realized that the giant snake's life had come to an end. It was probably a moment of recovery for him to come out to see the little boy.
It was upon discovering this that he suddenly understood the giant snake's intention.
Upon hearing Chen Ran's words, Wu Bing was stunned.
Chen Ran ignored him and slid down into the crack in the stone. Not long after, Wu Bing also got in.
The crevice in the stone was indeed very deep. The rope that Chen Ran tied reached its end and had not yet reached the bottom. However, it was only five or six meters away from the ground. He untied the rope and slid down the slope directly.
When he got to the ground, Chen Ran first used a strong flashlight to observe the environment he was in. To his surprise, he originally thought that the crevice in the stone was just an ordinary cave where the giant snake lived, but he did not expect that there was a different cave below.
Although this grotto is formed naturally as a whole, there are obvious traces of artificial repairs.
It looks a bit like an ancestral hall, but it hasn't been repaired for I don't know how many years. It looks very dilapidated. Some of the carved stone statues have either fallen down or are missing arms or legs.
Chen Ran didn't take a closer look. With a glance, he discovered the giant snake and the little boy. This was because the rest of the snake cave was dark except for the place where the giant snake was.
Scatter a little light.
When Chen Ran arrived at the giant snake, he found that the giant snake was lying on a round stone bed that seemed to be a bed. At this time, the giant snake was motionless and its eyes were closed. The little boy was sitting on it.
While silently holding the head of the giant snake.
When Chen Ran saw this, he immediately checked the giant snake's body. The giant snake was seriously injured. Not only did it suffer several bullet wounds on its body, but it also suffered knife wounds. Especially the back half of its body was covered in blood and flesh.
Too much, this was obviously shot by the shotgun used by the mine protection team outside .
Seeing the giant snake's appearance, Chen Ran was a little confused. Before seeing the giant snake, he learned that this mine protection team used a lot of realgar and guessed that the other party came for the red snake. Now that he saw it
The opponent seemed to be dealing with this giant snake. Was he wrong in guessing, or was this giant snake suffering disaster near the pond?
Where is the red snake now? Is it in the valley or in this grotto?
Thinking in his mind, Chen Ran did not hesitate in his hands. Although the lower half of the giant snake's body was beaten to a bloody pulp, it was no longer bleeding. Therefore, he did not bandage the giant snake for the time being, but continued to
It transports the elixir energy into the body of the giant snake.
Chen Ran was not sure whether he could save it, after all, it was too seriously injured.
A burst of elixir energy was sent into the giant snake's body, and the giant snake reacted a little. It shook its bruised tail twice and slowly opened its eyes.
The giant snake woke up and saw Chen Ran and seemed to be more energetic. Then it seemed to notice something. It shook its head in confusion and sensed its own body. Finally, it seemed to know that Chen Ran was healing its body.
He looked at Chen Ran with both confusion and gratitude.
This giant snake had lived for who knows how many years. Its expression was very human. Looking at it, Chen Ran felt as if he was looking at an old man.
This made Chen Ran very surprised. Due to the existence of Dan Qi, he had dealt with several kinds of animals. Although those animals were very spiritual, they were not as humane as this giant snake.
As the saying goes, things become monsters when they grow old, and people become spirits when they grow old. Obviously, this giant snake has become a "demon" existence.
Of course, the "demon" here is not the kind of omnipotent demon that flies into the sky and enters the earth in mythical novels. The demon here just means that it has lived a long time, experienced many things, and seen many things, and then it can
Having insight into all things in the world is the same as the "fineness" of people who become better as they age. Just like when people describe a person as smart, they often say that the other person is too "fine".
Although the giant snake is an animal, the more we see it, experience it more, and even interact with humans more, it will undoubtedly become more humane.
As Chen Ran continued to deliver the elixir energy into the giant snake's body, the giant snake's depressed mental state improved significantly, but Chen Ran's elixir energy was quickly used up.
At this time, although the giant snake was in better spirits, it was still extremely weak, but Chen Ran was able to temporarily bring its life back.
But this is only temporary. Chen Ran can feel that the giant snake's vitality is still draining. It won't take long, I'm afraid...but at this time, Chen Ran has nothing to do, unless he can absorb and refine it in a short time.
Get more elixir energy.
The elixir energy that Chen Ran was transporting into the giant snake's body suddenly stopped. The giant snake naturally felt it. It seemed to be aware of Chen Ran's situation. It was very open-minded and was not disappointed. It just looked at Chen Ran gratefully.
Just for a moment.
Then it seemed to remember its purpose of calling Chen Ran in.
It was like a mother wanting to say goodbye to her child. It held the little boy in its arms in its own way, full of affection and reluctance, but after a while, he still shook the snake's head and pushed the little boy away.
In front of Chen Ran, he then raised the snake's head and looked at Chen Ran.
Being looked at by the giant snake, Chen Ran didn't know how to describe his feelings. First of all, the situation in front of him made him feel extremely weird. Secondly, the giant snake's affection for the little boy and its humanized Tuogu made him surprised and confused.
, very emotional and touched...
Even if there was no giant snake to help him, Chen Ran would not leave the little boy alone. Therefore, he did not say much and just silently held the little boy in his arms.
The little boy didn't cry or laugh, but he probably knew something about the situation at hand, and he held the giant snake's neck with both hands without losing it.
Seeing Chen Ran's actions, the giant snake seemed to feel relieved for a moment. Then it raised its head and rubbed Chen Ran's arm twice. Then it broke free from the little boy's hands and slid down the stone while swinging its tail.
The bed slid towards the left side of the grotto.
After the giant snake slid down the stone bed, the luminous thing was revealed at once, and it was actually five or six luminous beads.
In addition to these beads, there are some other strange and weird objects on it, which look like a child's toy bed.
Seeing these things, Chen Ran immediately understood that these things must be the playthings that the giant snake found for the little boy. This made him imagine the scene of the giant snake playing with the little boy...
Wu Bing was standing next to Chen Ran just now. When he saw these things on the stone bed, he was stunned.
After the giant snake slid down the stone bed, it immediately slid to the front of the grotto, and then it turned back to look at Chen Ran.
It obviously meant to let Chen Ran go with it.
Although Chen Ran felt strange, he picked up the little boy and followed him.
Seeing Chen Ran following him, the giant snake circled behind a statue that had fallen on the ground. There was a hole behind the statue and the giant snake slipped in quickly.
Chen Ran turned around and glanced at Wu Bing. When he saw Wu Bing following him, he hugged the little boy and jumped into the hole. This hole was on the ground and should have been under the inverted statue.
There were stairs in the cave. Chen Ran carried the little boy and walked down the stairs. Before he reached the end, he found that the light below was brighter than the light emitted by the few glowing beads just now. The stairs were not long, and soon
Chen Ran carried the little boy to the secret passage.
When Chen Ran came out of the secret passage and saw the scene below, he was stunned for a moment.
[I revised it several times, but the revision time was enough for me to write two more chapters...
