Xiao Ruohui was too young and had stayed in the cold night for too long, so his perception of the outside world had long been dulled.
But the noise was so loud that for Xiao Ruohui, it was no exaggeration to say that it was earth-shaking.
He turned his stiff neck with difficulty and looked up. An extremely huge foot was magnified infinitely in his eyes.
The Eastern Continent is all plains, and there is not much contact with the giant beasts that like to live in forests and mountains, so Ruohui didn't recognize that it was the legendary giant beast at all, and just thought it was some strange-looking wild beast.
The owner of the big foot seemed to be running at high speed, and Ruohui's position was his resting place.
Just when Ruohui thought he was about to be trampled to death by this big guy, a huge snake tail came from nowhere and slapped the big guy. The huge body flew several meters away in an instant, and then fell to the ground with a "thump".
That huge body was not in vain. Even the landing was so spectacular that the splashing snowflakes directly buried Ruohui in the snow.
Ruohui felt even colder when buried in the snow. With the isolation of the snow, he could only hear a few dull noises in his ears, and then it quickly became quiet.
What happened? What kind of orc is that big guy?
Ruohui's mind worked slowly, but he couldn't figure it out for a long time.
This was obviously beyond the comprehension of a young boy like him.
While he was thinking, something suddenly grabbed his hind legs and lifted him up.
Little Ruohui was hanging upside down in the air, dangling. He raised his head with difficulty and happened to meet a pair of pitch-black vertical pupils.
"Oh~ There's actually a little cub here," the round-headed white snake spit out its tongue, its eyes full of interest, "I love eating little cubs the most."
Ruohui had never traveled far and had never seen a stray beast, but the sense of danger in his blood and the few words he heard from his elders, combined with the words of the big snake, made Ruohui, no matter how stupid he was, know that he had encountered a stray beast.
Stared at by those cold vertical pupils, every cell in Ruohui's body was screaming of danger.
The kid had a low tolerance for stress and fainted before he could catch his breath.
There was a flash of surprise in the white snake's eyes. It shook its tail in disbelief at the cub who was still hanging upside down in the air, his body limp as if he was dead.
Only then did I finally confirm that this little guy seemed, possibly, probably... to have been frightened unconscious by me?
The white snake stuck out its tongue and swung its tail twice, looking a little confused.
After a long while, he finally uttered, "It's really funny."
Feeling his body becoming increasingly stiff, and the boy in front of him gradually losing body temperature, the white snake knew that he could not delay any longer.
He used his injured tail, which was no longer bleeding due to the low temperature, to pull the huge beast to a leeward slope.
He cut open the beast's belly and swallowed its still steaming internal organs. He then turned the opening of the beast's belly as far as possible toward the boulder and crawled in with the unconscious Ruohui.
They, the round-nosed silver snakes, do not need to hibernate, they will just be lazy and not move.
This avoids the risk of being dug out and eaten by giant beasts during hibernation, or being buried alive by avalanches and earthquakes, but it also poses a problem.
There is a shortage of food.
Even if you don't need to eat often, food will be consumed sooner or later, and your stomach will still feel hungry as usual.
The white snake had no choice but to go out hunting in the wind and snow, risking freezing to death.
He searched for a long time and made a fire several times before he encountered this giant beast that was out for a stroll.
It was worth it for him to go out for a walk despite the discomfort of roasting by the fire.
After chasing and fighting the giant beast for a long time, they finally killed it.
As a result, they found a little kid in the snow.
How could any cubs go up the mountain in such a cold weather?
He must be an abandoned kid.
Seeing that the cub was not disabled and its brain seemed normal, the White Snake decided to keep it and raise it for fun.
Just consider it as a way to kill time.
Anyway, with his strength, it is more than enough for him to raise one more child.
Baishe had seen many stray animals who didn't want to snatch females, and they all liked to pick up cubs to raise, so he had been tempted.
But he never met him, but today he was lucky and met him.
The white snake, who had just killed a giant beast, was now exhausted. Also, because he had just swallowed some warm internal organs, he did not need to eat for at least ten days.
In addition, this giant beast has thick skin and fat, so if you hide in its belly, you won't freeze to death even if it's not hot.
So the white snake hugged the warm little cub and fell asleep.
When Ruohui woke up, he found himself in a small space, which was only small enough for him to turn over.
He looked left and right, and all around him was white and hard, pieces of walls warmed by his body temperature.
It was very quiet around, there was no whistling wind and no heavy snow. Although it was not very warm, it was not too cold either.
Xiao Ruohui's head was full of question marks.
What about the stray beast that wanted to eat him? Did he show mercy and let him go, or was he still in his stomach?
Just as he was thinking this, Xiao Ruohui suddenly heard a rustling sound.
Along with these sounds, Ruohui was surprised to find that the surrounding 'walls' were actually moving?
"It's not you, it's us," the big snake said lazily, having just woken up, "We are in the belly of the giant beast."
When Ruohui turned around and saw the huge snake head, his first reaction was, I accidentally said what was in my heart.
The second reaction is.
Mother, help me!
Then he rolled his eyes and fainted.
The white snake shook the little cub who fainted again with his layers of body, and his head was full of question marks.
I was thinking, I didn’t scare him this time?
Is it because I look too scary?
Impossible! This kid must be too timid!
The white snake felt that it had found the reason, so it put its head next to Ruohui and fell asleep again.
I have to say, this kid is really warm, not as hot as a fire.
I found the treasure.
The White Snake thought happily.
