New White Snake Asking Immortals

Chapter 2 The Mountain Herbal Collector

The Hundred Thousand Mountains are boundless, poisonous insects, fierce beasts, miasma and bad water. The environment is harsh and usually inaccessible. The unique environment has nurtured countless creatures and rare elixir.

Some special medicinal materials will be bred in places where aura gathers, which contain the essence of heaven and earth aura, sun and moon, so they often attract wild beasts to devour them.

One day, the white snake was hunting in the mountains and forests, unaware that the snake's life would change...

Beasts and birds have an ability, that is, no need to learn or experience, just rely on intuition to distinguish good and bad things, as if there is some guidance in the dark, called instinct.

The white snake raised its head and spat out the snake letter to search for the scent of its prey.

Suddenly, a scent particle that lures the snake deeply stimulated the olfactory system. It was a smell that had never been smelled before. The genetic memory white snake at the place confirmed that it was not a trap, and after a little hesitation, it twisted its body to search for the scent.

Swimming across a small stream, Snake Xin kept catching the smell and crawling fast. Judging from the smell, it was not far away. After climbing up the hillside, I found a pit in the mountain stream halfway up the mountain. There was a small puddle with a radius of one meter inside. I saw the puddle The tender green grass next to it, the whole body of the grass is as green as glass, the digestive juice unconsciously slipped from the corner of the mouth, and almost without any hesitation, it opened the snake's mouth and pulled out the grass with mud and swallowed it. Fiery eyes darkened and passed out...

In fact, the green grass is not a weed, nor is it a rare species of heaven and earth, but it is an old plant with sufficient medicinal effects, which happens to grow in a place where spiritual energy gathers. What's more, if you don't eat it, I'm afraid there will be other beasts looking for it to compete for it.

It is dangerous to be unconscious in the forest, but fortunately, the small puddle is located halfway up the mountain and is hidden in the mountain stream.

As the sun set and the moon rose, the White Snake, who had been in a coma for a day, moved its tail and slowly woke up.

After waking up, he cursed carelessly, but fortunately he was not poisoned, and felt as if his whole body was bound and tense. The white snake, who had experienced shedding its skin several times, knew that it was going to grow and grow longer again, so it twisted its body and descended the mountain.

Go back to the old nest of the stone pile, get into the chaotic rocks and scrape hard at the edges and corners of the stones.

Snake scales are the outermost stratum corneum of the skin. They are very tough and can prevent the loss of water in the body. They will not grow with the growth of the body. The old snake skin must be shed to become bigger. The white snake is a little confused. It has been less than a month since the last time it shed its skin. Bigger again?

First, the snake skin falls off the head, and the old skin is scraped from the head to the trunk with the help of rough edges and corners. Finally, the tip of the snake tail molts, and the whole moulting process ends.

The white snake with human wisdom rolls up the old skin with its tail and hides it in the crevice of the stone, so as not to attract the attention of the falcon.

Moulting is very dangerous, not to mention the predators, if you can't shed the old skin, it will probably lead to death and consume a lot of nutrients. Many snake catchers just take advantage of the snake's molting body to become stiff and docile to catch the snake, otherwise A white snake will not crawl into a pile of rocks.

Tired and fell asleep again...

the next day.

White Snake found that the snake scales on his body were whiter, more beautiful and longer. It was five meters long from head to tail. In this forest, he could be considered a colossus. A bigger body meant greater combat power. White Snake didn't know his limits. No matter how much it is, it is always right that the bigger the better.

The weather is fine, swim out of the cave to continue hunting.

The 100,000 mountains are difficult to cultivate and are not suitable for human survival. The harsh environment is inaccessible, but because of this, it has become a yearning place for poor herb collectors. Living with meager money, many people never went out.

There is a pool with a radius of 100 meters in the valley, the pool is small and deep, and there is a moss-covered cliff beside the water. A man in his thirties who looks like he is carrying a medicine basket is climbing on it to collect medicine.

The left hand firmly grasped the vine, and the right hand picked out the whole herb from the cracks in the stone and carefully put it into the basket.

Grab the vines and slowly move to another place. The herb pickers were delighted to see the plants in the stone nest, Dendrobium candidum! This adventure into the mountains pays off! After selling the money, the lady in the family can sell a piece of cloth to make clothes. The happy herbal picker started picking Dendrobium officinale, but did not notice that the vine in his hand was severely worn by the rock...

The herbal picker only felt that his left hand was empty and fell backwards! Secretly said that my life is over.

Plop~! Water splashes.

Most of the poor people who live in the mountains all year round are a little water-savvy. The man wanted to swim to the shore, but when he rolled off the cliff, his arm was injured and he couldn't use his strength. He barely floated on the water and couldn't swim. This made the man very anxious.

"Help... help..."

The cries for help echoed in the valley, and even though they knew that there was no one nearby, they clung to the straw and called for help.

In the distance, the white snake raised its head.

There seemed to be some strange noise just now, but no abnormality was found, and it crawled with its head down and continued to look for prey.

In fact, the cry for help was very loud, but snake creatures use their abdomen to feel the vibration more, so they did not hear someone calling for help clearly. It was not until the white snake came to the edge of the pool that it saw the figure up and down in the water through infrared sensing.

Through the infrared screen, it is known that it is a human being.

people?

The White Snake has never seen even a single human being in twenty years, and once thought that there was no one in this world, and the appearance of the drowning person touched the memory of the past in the depths of the soul.

Just at this moment, the herbal picker became more and more weak in his thumping, and slowly sank into the water.

When the medicine collector thought he was going to die, he saw a huge white snake swimming in the water. It was really a medicine collector who fell into the water, and misfortunes never come singly when encountering a big snake.

My life is over...

Under the water, the white snake twisted its body and swam quickly to the herb picker, wrapping its tail around his shoulders and swam towards the shore vigorously.

Not long.

"Ahem..."

The man who fell into the water kept coughing, and finally sat up suddenly and took a deep breath. Before he fell into a coma, he remembered that a big white snake pulled him away, but when he woke up, he was on the shore. Where was the big snake?

Looking up, there is a thick snake head in front of you.

"what……"

With a scream, the herb collector backed away in a panic, but behind him was the cliff that could not retreat, the white snake did not move, and looked at him with a look of contempt, yes, contempt, the herb collector I'm sure the snake is despising its own yelling.

From the details of the man's clothing and hairstyle, White Snake can tell that he is an ancient man. He has yellow skin and black hair, oriental face, and the weaving technology is very backward. His clothing and hair are somewhat similar to the Qin and Han styles, which means that this is an ancient world.

After watching for a long time, the white snake turned and left.

For some reason, the herb collector seemed to feel that the snake sighed. Is this still a snake?

White Snake is just sighing, a snake is a snake, no matter what the previous life is, it is the past, after seeing the person, there is not much fluctuation in his heart, maybe twenty years of spring and autumn made him bid farewell to the past, the reason why he saved people is just that there is still in the bottom of his heart At least it was the first person I saw, so it has a little commemorative significance.

The man collecting herbs breathed a sigh of relief, checked his arm injury and found herbal medicine to treat it. After the wound was bandaged, he found that it was gradually slanting to the west. It seemed that he couldn't get out today.

There was no dry food in the back basket, and just when the hunger was unbearable, the white snake came back again.

Putting down the strangled pheasant, turned and left.

The herbal picker stared dumbfounded at the food on the ground and at the white snake going away, knelt down and kowtowed, muttering something...
