Reborn as a snake, creating a magic method in the real world

Chapter 9 Voles taste pretty good

The sky was so sultry, like a big steam oven, many ants crawled out, and the little sparrows all flew very low.

Ants move, birds fly low.

Looking at the sky above his head, and the dark clouds drifting from nowhere, Ye Qin thought thoughtfully, "It looks like it's going to rain."

He ate a few wild fruits to satisfy his hunger, but instead of leaving, he hid behind a stone.

The color of the stone was similar to his, and it was also dark black. The two were almost fused together. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't be able to find a little black snake here.

The wild fruit on the ground is his best bait, and there will always be some small herbivorous animals coming over.

Ye Qin was extremely patient, like a qualified hunter, perhaps because of biological instinct, he didn't move at all, like a fossil.

Even the bright red snake letter only vibrates occasionally to distinguish whether there is any trace of prey.

As the sun sets, as the sun gradually shifts, the entire sky is dyed orange light. Layers of turbulent clouds shroud this green mountain, adding a bit of special flavor.

This wait lasted for a long time, during which Ye Qin did not see any traces of other small animals.

He is not discouraged. Even if he fails today, there will still be tomorrow. If there is no tomorrow, there will be the day after tomorrow.

The big deal is to go further afield to try your luck. Although it is a bit dangerous, he will always find food.

Just when Ye Qin was about to return.

The pupils shrank suddenly, and there was a slight movement from the grass not far away, and the gray fur could be vaguely seen, which was very obvious under the green grass.

It was a gray field mouse, with a few whiskers poking around in the air, as if checking for danger around it, and then most of its body poked out.

The field mouse stood upright, its small nose twitched, and then looked at the wild fruit not far away.

Although its limbs were short, its speed was very fast. Seeing that there was no danger around it, it felt relieved.

The forelimbs directly stuffed the wild fruit into the mouth, and the two front teeth were soaked in the juice of the wild fruit, and then swallowed it whole.His cheeks instantly became bulging.

Tasting the delicious voles, he didn't notice that in the dark, a pair of faint animal pupils were staring at his every move.

Ye Qin approached cautiously without making any sound, as if he was integrated with the surrounding environment. His pupils were as big as the tips of needles, firmly locked on the vole's position.

His body was tense and straight, ready to go.

The field mouse seemed to have noticed something, its mustache shook, and stopped eating, but it was too late.

When it was too late, Ye Qin shot out like an arrow leaving the string, leaving only an afterimage in the air.

His body quickly wrapped around the field mouse.

"Squeak!"

The field mouse tried desperately to break free, but the snake's body became more and more tightly entangled, and soon its range of movements gradually became smaller and it made no sound.

Ye Qin then loosened his shackles and looked at the body of the vole with a satisfied look. The first hunt was still a success.

This field mouse is relatively small, and its claws and teeth are not dangerous. Otherwise, Ye Qin would not be able to succeed so quickly.

Then it's time to enjoy the results.

Ye Qin was already mentally prepared, but even so, it was not easy to get over that hurdle all at once.

Although he is a snake now, he has been a person for decades in his previous life and rarely eats sashimi, let alone voles.

He took a deep breath, suppressed his nausea, and slowly swallowed the vole.

I don't know if the physiological structure has changed, or it is the nature of snakes. Voles are not as unpalatable as imagined, and the meat is even quite tender.

There is also a saying among the Lingnan folks that "eat one mouse and treat three chickens", describing that the nutritional value of voles is higher than that of chicken. Dried voles are not only delicious, but also high in protein.

After eating the field mouse, Ye Qin finally felt full, sat down on the grass to rest for a while, and returned to the cave before the sun completely set with the last ray of sunlight.

Probably due to the replenishment of energy, the speed of digging the hole today was faster than usual, and it took longer. The small hole that was no more than the width of a thumb before was opened up by Ye Qin, and it was already the size of two fists.

At the same time, the scorched black scales on Ye Qin's tail have completely fallen off, and new green snake scales have grown. I don't know if it is Ye Qin's illusion, but he always feels that his body has grown a lot longer.

When hunting today, Ye Qin found out that he was only half entangled, and the vole was completely entangled by him.

After a full meal, Ye Qin went back home and continued to return to the cave. Except for hunting time, he spent most of his time thinking.

Except for hibernation, snakes usually sleep very little, so it doesn't matter if Ye Qin spends it all day in meditation.

Not only will he not be tired, but he will also feel refreshed. Most importantly, he can feel that his strength is constantly increasing.

Now those hideous and terrifying wounds are now only scars, and all these changes were brought about through cultivation.

"Boom!"

A muffled sound came from outside the cave, bringing Ye Qin's thoughts back to reality.

A thunderous sound fell from mid-air, and the originally dark cave was illuminated by purple light.

"It's thundering"

Ye Qin couldn't help muttering to himself,

Hearing the rumbling thunder coming from outside, I feel a little uncomfortable, probably because of the influence of this snake body, I don't like this kind of thunder and lightning weather, and I can even say I hate it.

After all, when he crossed over, he was almost struck to death by lightning, and his scars haven't healed yet. If it wasn't for his cultivation, he might have become a dead soul long ago. No wonder he would have such a reaction.

Hearing the continuous thunder, Ye Qin felt a little irritable, the tip of his tail kept poking the ground, but he never thought of hitting the dead branch next to him.

The dead branch was several times thicker than him, and it broke into two pieces with only a "crack".

Ye Qin looked at his own tail in disbelief, it seemed that he didn't use much strength just now, he just thought that the inside of the dead branch was rotten, as brittle as paper, but he didn't care about it.

In addition to the thunder, there was also the whimpering sound of the wind, which came in through the cave.

Although Ye Qin didn't go out to see what was going on outside, it was conceivable that there must be a strong wind.

With such a huge momentum, there must be a heavy rain coming.

Ye Qin couldn't help being thankful again that he had found a good place to shelter from the wind and rain. If he were in the wild now, with his small body, he might be blown into the sky.

In addition to natural enemies, animals also need to guard against harsh weather and environment. This is the cruelty of nature. If you are not careful, you will fall into it.

With the existence of caves, at least there is a shelter, unless it is an earthquake, Ye Qin doesn't have to worry at all.

In the middle of the night, the constant crackling of raindrops made Ye Qin unable to concentrate at all, unable to sink into meditation, fortunately he circled his body into a ball to rest.
