'Such an important thing...'

【what? 】

'...you fucking didn't say it earlier! ! ! '

A loud bang.

The body fell heavily into the rushing river, dizzy from the impact of the water and the lack of oxygen in the body, there was no room for thinking, and the desire to survive could only dominate the body and struggle upwards.

Finally rushed up.

The nostrils that had just come out of the water breathed desperately, only my own rough breathing was in my ears.Shelley swallowed, and suddenly found that her legs were paddling.

Change... come back?

Before he had time to think about it, the thought of being saved just now was shrouded in a chill that swept over him.Shivering in the water, Shelley swam to the shore in twos and threes.Stretching out her hand to grab the stones and grass on the shore, she grabbed them tightly and rushed up by the buoyancy of the water.

[Oh, it's not dead. 】

As soon as he sat on the shore, the system came to congratulate him in time.

【It surprised me that. 】

A gust of wind blew by, and Shelley felt her teeth chattering.

"Anyway, I have to thank you."

【Um? 】

"Although talking is better than nothing, but," she wrapped her soaked robe tightly, "at least it's a piece of clothing."

In fact, Shelley had already made the final preparations, but after having a piece of clothing, the sense of luck for the rest of his life was magnified.After walking barefoot by the river for a while, surveying the surrounding scenery, she finally looked to the sky.

She actually saw the cooking smoke.

Someone is on the mountain.

good thing.

After confirming that the so-called camp was not far away, Shelley quickened his pace and walked there, while thinking about how to call for help for a while in order to make it convincing.

[It’s fine to just say that you are in trouble. 】

In this day and age, even going to another place requires something similar to a customs clearance certificate. Right now, she has nothing, so it's not impossible to say that she is in trouble.

[Anyway, it's fine, I'll hide first, take care. 】

The system fell silent like this, and no matter how much it summoned in the brain, there was no more movement.Shelley gave up after trying a few times and turned to observe the movement around her.

It was almost near the cooking smoke, but there was no human voice at all.

Her steps gradually slowed down.

what happened.

If the hunters were resting, it would be a time for conversation, if not laughter.Although silence is not impossible, but if it is too quiet, and there are wolves on the mountain...

But aren't wolves afraid of fire?

Thinking about it this way, Shelley still decided to give it a try.

It was almost night.

I don't know if Yinshi went back.

It's best to go back safely, otherwise her painstaking efforts will be in vain.

Shelley suddenly felt that he was really free now, obviously his own situation was the worst, but he was worried about others.Obviously it would be better to spend more time on the things in front of me, but I just can't concentrate.

Maybe I dare not think about it.

After all, if a girl appeared alone in the mountains to ask for help, it might not be a good thing for both the person asking for help and the person being asked for help.

With that in mind, I finally got there.

What Shelley saw were two people, all sitting under the tree, one looking up and the other looking down, as if they were both asleep.The bonfire was burning right between the two of them, spreading the strangeness and heat into the surrounding air.

"……Excuse me?"

Shelley raised his voice, but the two of them didn't seem to wake up at all.After hesitating for a moment, Shelley walked step by step to a place where he could almost form an equilateral triangle with the other two, and sat down.

Both of them had their bags close at hand, one had been half opened, and the other hadn't even moved.

This situation is getting more and more wrong.

Shelley felt the hairs all over his body stand on end.

Hey don't die.

Just when her whole body was on the verge of firing, one of them suddenly moved.

"Who?!"

No one answered her, only a rustling sound.

The two men who were seated fell over as about a dozen snakes crawled out of them.

They all look black at first glance, but a closer look reveals that they are actually just black with brown mottled skin.On the head like a branding iron, the shining eyes are especially scary in the dark. With the hissing sound of the snake letter, people feel inexplicably hearing the sound of the gate of hell opening.

"I say……"

Shelley felt that the clothes he had dried a little with great difficulty were about to be wet with his own cold sweat again, so he covered his shoulders with both hands, and the girl shivered and laughed dryly.

"I was still a snake an hour ago, for the sake of my family..."

The leading snake hissed twice, rubbed against Shelley's feet, and crawled up her ankles.

Every muscle in the body was tense, and even breathing began to be cautious.The slippery feeling from the skin made her feel cold all over. Shelley felt the sliding of the local snake, and suddenly felt that the people living in the Matsushita Village School should actually be abnormal.

Even a guy like her who thinks she is a snake feels that touching a snake makes her terrified. Those guys whose heads are crawled by her all day long...

Or is it that men don't care too much about this?

Wait, obviously men should hate the sticky feeling even more.

Shelley felt that she should do an interview when she went back, but at this time the ground snake that was already sitting on top of her flicked its tail and stuck its head on top of her head.

As if sensing something, the rest of the snakes also faced her and lowered their heads.

This is... what the hell.

The ground snake climbed down, ran around Shelley a few times, and landed in front of Shelley.Compared with the eyes like light bulbs in the night just now, the local snake has become very kind.Shelley felt that he should be able to move, so he moved towards the campfire, and then tried to finish his sentence.

"Do you... live here?"

The local snake nodded.

"They..." Shelley pointed to the little snakes around: "Are they all your children?"

The local snake nodded again.

Is that how we can talk?

It should be the credit of the system again.

Shelley swallowed, and pointed to the other two people.

"Are they... dead?"

The ground snake nodded again.

The body that had finally warmed up cooled down again.

Why kill them.

She almost blurted out the question, but fortunately she didn't ask it in the end.

Why kill them or something, isn't it obvious.

As long as it makes them feel threatened, even if the bonfire is lit near their lair, they may be attacked.When you rest in the forest, you should be prepared to encounter this kind of situation, because here... there are not as many rules as in human society.

Although the so-called rules of human society are actually no different from nature.

Holding himself tighter again, Shelley asked again.

"Are they really dead?"

The local snake hissed twice, quite complacent about the strength of his family.

After taking a few deep breaths, Shelley closed her eyes and thought for a while, finally making up her mind.

"Then can I trouble you, give me those two packages...?"

Dry food and water bladders, and a clean suit of clothing.

Thank goodness.

Shelley set up a rack of sticks and baked her clothes.Against the backdrop of the bonfire, Shelley looked at the dry food in his hand, and finally took a bite.

The rough taste of the ground wheat filled the mouth, Shelley chewed a couple of mouthfuls, mixed it with water and swallowed it reluctantly.Seeing the flickering appearance of the bonfire, Shelley suddenly lost the ability to eat, broke off two pieces and threw them to the side snake.

The ground snake swallowed a piece, and then spit it out again.

"...I really don't give face."

After wrapping her clothes tightly, Shelley snorted and laughed: "I said..."

The ground snake spit out the letter.

"Do you think I'm a snake or a human?"

The local snake didn't answer her, but just stuck to the ground and closed its eyes.

Shelley, who realized that he might be annoyed by snakes, stayed up all night, watching the bonfire until dawn.Knowing that she has dark circles under her eyes without looking, Shelley took a deep breath after seeing the sun rise.

"Do you know that you can go down the mountain over there?"

The local snake flicked its tail, and finally pointed in one direction.

"Then... I'll be leaving." Shelley knelt down and touched the snake's head: "...Thank you."

I don't know what words to use to describe my current mood.

All Shelley can think about now is to go back to the village school as soon as possible, to sleep in any place, and then forget all about what she experienced on the mountain.

In fact, it doesn't seem like a big deal, just staying on the mountain for one night, but...

Her legs are shaking uncontrollably now.

[Not dead is not very good. 】

The system spoke at this time.

[Why do you look very aggrieved. 】

"It's not... wronged."

Shelley said as she walked, "I can't say anything about grievances at all."

[Then why do you make me feel like you want to cry. 】

Shelley made no answer.

It should be broad daylight when we walked back, and when Shelley stumbled and saw the door of the village school, he felt that he had to use up all his strength.The joy was beyond words, but when he was about to rush in, his footsteps stopped again.

Want to go in?

There were noisy voices in the village school, and Shelley heard the voices of Kotaro and Takasugi.The voices of the two men were a little high, but Shelley could not make out what they were arguing about.

[Don't you want to go in? 】

Shelley hesitated.

"Do you... want to go in?"

If you go in, what should you say?

Finding some place to lean against, Shelley shifted his weight away from himself.

"It's still...forget it."

I don't know why, but I felt a retreat from that door in my heart.Obviously when I was on the mountain, I was still thinking about where to sleep well, but now I don't even have the courage to go in.

"I……"

"... Snow vegetables?"

Shelley raised his head and looked towards the source of the sound.Songyang held a steaming bowl in his hand, and asked hesitantly.

Smiling with difficulty, Shelley asked.

"Is Yinshi okay?"

"He's not bad, but now he has a little fever..."

Songyang's voice gradually became blurred, and his vision began to darken.The girl who felt she was about to fall realized something before the voice in her ear disappeared.

The kid is still alive.

not bad.
