Chapter 30
Wan Zhong’s kiss made the black snake happier than ever before.
It rolled up its mate, who kissed its tail, first throwing him high, and then raising him to the same level as its head. After licking his lips with the snake tongue, it affectionately rubbed against him.
“What’s the matter, Handsome snake? Do you like me kissing you?” Wan Zhong asked the black snake with raised eyebrows with starlight eyes. “How about I kiss you again?”
The black snake looked at him with big vertical pupils and bright green eyes.
Wan Zhong smiled, thinking of it like a big yellow dog of his own, holding the black snake’s big head and planting a very loud kiss on a scale connecting its eyes and the tip of its nose.
[What~!]
[~~~]
The black snake’s eyes turned red, and it really wanted to build a nest now, hugging and wrapping its tail with its spouse. It was so anxious.
Fortunately, it didn’t have to wait too long for that day.
When there wasn’t much dried meat left for Wan Zhong, the black snake’s scales finally grew and turned into a very pure black.
The black snake, now with replaced scales, twisted its huge and ostentatious body to its fullest in the bright sunshine, showing off its new scales that shone like obsidian to Wan Zhong at 360 degrees for a long time. Finally, the black snake raised its head slightly and lowered its eyes proudly looking at Wan Zhong.
Wan Zhong opened his lips and teeth slightly, standing in the shadow of the black snake and looking up at it blankly…
The black snake didn’t lose weight.
Not only did it not lose weight.
It was even bigger than before!
It was still very bling~ bling~!
Wan Zhong was stunned and speechless.
The black snake spat out its tongue and passed the tip of its tail to its spouse’s mouth, signaling: ‘Why are you standing there in a daze? Praise me!’
Wan Zhong came back to his senses, kissed the black snake’s tail forcefully, and applauded very proudly: “Wow~! Our handsome snake is so awesome! Look at this slender snake body that stands tall and big! Look at these beautiful scales that are more sparkling than gems! They are so perfect that I can’t find any adjectives to praise them! Because the most beautiful words in the world cannot praise everything I see! Handsome snake, you are so handsome that the sun and the moon felt dim! You make any beautiful thing pale! What a pity that I am not a snake who can stand shoulder to shoulder with you, otherwise I would do everything to make you happy and pursue you crazily!”
In an effort to make his praise more genuine and effective, Wan Zhong pretended to lower his head and sighed softly, as if he genuinely regretted not being a snake and not be able to pursue it.
The black snake had long known that its spouse had low self-esteem due to its excessive perfection. It looked at Wan Zhong with a lost expression, licked the corners of his lips, and patted the tip of his plump buttocks with the tip of its tail.
Very seriously, it said: [It doesn’t matter, even if you are a human being, I will not dislike you.]
Wan Zhong couldn’t help but burst into laughter. “You are really a silly snake, so innocent and cute.”
The black snake looked at the smile on Wan Zhong’s lips and felt that its spouse was so easy to coax. What should it do? It felt more pity for him?
.
Wan Zhong inscribed the number – 190 – on the gold brick. Another circle was carved below, marking the perfect end to the 38-day shedding of the black snake.
At this point, Wan Zhong had been on the deserted island for more than six months. The scorching sun above his heads remained unchanged, unchanged at all.
“Handsome snake, is it summer here all year round?”
The black snake couldn’t speak, and Wan Zhong didn’t expect it to answer.
He discussed with it: “Handsome snake, I’ve finished my food, can you go hunting with me? Just catch that three-legged chicken. If possible, I, I want to eat that snake fish again…”
The black snake: “???”
Apart from the three-legged crow and tiger dragon, when did it feed its mate such oddities as three-legged chicken and snake fish?
At night, the big vertical pupils of the black snake were full of question marks, and Wan Zhong hurriedly made signs for it.
“It’s the chicken with three legs, a long neck, about the size of a calf, colorful and beautiful feathers, and it’s very good at pretending to be dead. And that, um… the fish tail is round and long, like a snake. It was that particularly delicious fish.”
The black snake: “…” ‘Okay, honey, whatever you say they are, that’s what they are.’
The black snake lowered its body and licked the lips of its mate, then jumped off the cliff and disappeared.
Wan Zhong was startled, thinking that the black snake was too random.
It was a snake, not a bird.
What if it fell after jumping from such a high place? He resolved to talk to it properly when it came back so that it wouldn’t be so reckless in the future. This was too worrying.
Wan Zhong, seeing the black snake leaving him and going out alone, guessed that it had been suffocating in the cave during this period and wanted to go out to relax. Realizing he couldn’t rely on it for everything, he wrapped up the snake skin and prepared to go hunting by himself.
Distant places like the grassland, where even a black snake would take a day and a night to travel back and forth, were certainly not within the scope of Wan Zhong’s consideration. He was heading to the old place far away from the snake’s nest where other animals appeared.
He had set a simple trap like digging a hole there before, but so far, he hadn’t even caught a rabbit.
But he couldn’t do anything else. He could only bravely walk deeper into the forest, where more animals appeared, and then dig a bigger and deeper trap near the water source.
Wan Zhong moved all the excavated new soil to other places, and then covered the entrance of the pit with thin vines and wide leaves. After pressing the sides firmly with soil, he put back the surface vegetation that had just been dug out.
Maintaining the original appearance of natural conditions as much as possible and prevent animals from discovering traps.
.
While Wan Zhong was doing this, the forest was quiet, not even a bird appeared.
He couldn’t help but feel that he had been lucky recently. He had not encountered any wild animals several times here.
He carved a mark on a tree next to the trap, made sure that the traces of his existence were well erased, and left quickly.
And not long after he left, the jackals, tigers, leopards, and other strange animals hiding in the surroundings poked their heads out, looked at each other harmoniously, and then returned to their dens to pick up their cubs and prepare to move again.
Even the sleeping owl hanging upside down on the branch opened its eyes and ran to tell the birds: ‘The little baby of the big black snake is expanding its territory again. Smell the rich snake smell in the air, let’s hurry up. Just pack up and keep moving~’
So, there were no surprises, Wan Zhong’s trap failed again and again.
Previously, he had boasted that he was a human being, that he was the top scorer in science in the national college entrance examination, and that he was smarter than other animals. As a result, he was nothing after leaving modern civilization.
On this desert island, it was estimated that even a mosquito had better survival ability than him, right?
Wan Zhong looked at the piece of dried meat that was only as big as a palm and was worried. A certain snake demon who had been away from the cave for several days finally came back…
.
Xuan Ming dragged ten three-legged chickens that were pretending to be dead and four live snake fish with his left hand, holding in his right hand a gold crown filled with snake fruits and some other messy wild fruit branches. The long tail also carries a large amount of black soil higher than the mountain, as well as tree vines and soft grass that could fill the entire cave.
Oh~
On top of his head, there was a golden mirror that was larger than the door panel.
Xuan Ming appeared behind Wan Zhong with a tired face, especially wanting a loving kiss and hug from him. But the next second, Xuan Ming remembered that Wan Zhong had cried and said that he was very afraid of himself who was half human and half snake…
Xuan Ming was very happy thinking about building a nest now, and he didn’t want to see his beloved shed tears on this festive day.
He changed back to the appearance of the black snake and crawled towards the person who it had been thinking about it day and night.
