snake coffin

Chapter 256
As soon as I swallowed the milk, Moxiu opened the bread for me, waved his hand, cleared out a flat rock, and folded a few broad leaves to make it easier for me to sit on.

Then he took the thermos cup, motioned me to sit down, and handed me the bread.

I sat on the cleared rock and ate a mouthful of bread, and Moxiu handed me the thermos and asked me to drink a mouthful of milk.

Bashan is isolated from the world, and Shennongjia is full of virgin forests.

The afternoon sun sprinkled down from the layers of leaves and fell on people, making people feel slightly warm.

From time to time there is a slight sound of fallen leaves in the distance, and the air has the scent of soil, fallen leaves, and grass, which is fresh and natural.

Even though it is right under Motian Ridge, compared to the desolate atmosphere on Motian Ridge, the tranquility here is like another world.

The sky and the world are really different.

I ate it mouthful, and Moxiu still passed me the milk tirelessly.

The two sat on the rocks like this, eating and smelling the breath of the forest.

He obviously didn't speak, but his heart was extremely peaceful.

There was no need for the two to look at each other, I swallowed the bread, Moxiu stretched out his hand, I stretched out my hand directly, and the cup was firmly in my hand.

He took a sip of milk into his throat and handed it back, but he was still able to catch it steadily.

Everything is so natural and smooth.

Mo Xiu didn't ask me why I didn't go back to see my parents.

I didn't ask him, if I go back, what about the milk and bread he brought with me?
Eat it secretly by yourself?

Or does he know that I won't go back?

But the two of them sat together like this, as if everything else was meaningless.

It turns out that when you are with someone who is like-minded, as long as you sit together and know that this person is next to you, you already have a sense of happiness that surpasses others.

This is probably the wonder of love.

The bread that Mo Xiu brought was a bit big, and he obviously didn't know how to buy food. He was also a little choked, so I ate slowly.

When He Shou and the others came down, I hadn't finished eating yet.

Seeing me eating, He Shou has a thick shell, and naturally his skin is not thin.

Immediately came over: "Little junior sister, where did you get your food?"

"I brought this." Mo Xiu held the milk for me and motioned for me to continue eating without talking.

He Shou immediately came over with a smile: "Snake Lord is so thoughtful, he is indeed a warm snake. Is there any more? Give me one too, I'm starving to death."

Mo Xiu just held the thermos cup and looked at him deeply.

A tortoise and a snake looked at each other, and He Shou immediately waved his hands quietly: "No... no... I'm a turtle, I eat fish."

He hurriedly turned his head and yelled: "That kid named Gu, what's his name? Isn't your Gu family good at shooting fish? Shoot some fat fish for your grandfather..."

He is a black turtle, but he has a loud voice.

As soon as it screamed, all the squirrels on the tree were startled away, and the leaves were also shaken and instigated to fall.

Mo Xiu frowned.

"Let's go! Let's go!" Yu Xinhe winked at me and pushed He Shou forward.

He Shou would be honest now, Ren Xinhe pushed him forward, but still yelled at Gu Jianming to shoot fish for him.

I stuffed the bread in two or three bites.

"Eat slowly, don't be in a hurry." Seeing this, Mo Xiu quickly handed over the milk: "The snake cave is there, and I can't run away."

I took the milk and drank it in one gulp. Moxiu kept holding the cup because he was afraid that the milk would get cold. With him holding it, it would keep at that temperature.

"My parents are willing to see me, are you..." I held the cup in my hand and looked at Mo Xiu: "Or did they put some conditions? In fact, it's not necessary. They didn't really want to see me in the first place."

"The cup is cold." Mo Xiu took the cup back and slowly tightened the lid: "Even after we talked about it, they are still very good to you. They just can't help themselves."

I breathed lightly and hugged Mo Xiu sideways.

His body visibly stiffened, and the hand that was twisting the lid slipped, and the lid of the thermos cup popped out with a soft sound.

I hugged Mo Xiu lightly, and said in a deep voice, "Mo Xiu, thank you."

If my parents want to see me, they can see me directly. There is no need to let me leave Qingshui Town first, and they will go back.

Even Xiao Xingye knew that they were willing to see me only after Mo Xiu made an agreement with them.

Mo Xiu always knew what I was thinking and knew that I was concerned about seeing them.

So even if he sent me out of Qingshui Town, he must have paid some price to get my parents to agree to see me.

I can guess that when I go back, it will definitely be in my house.

Mo Xiu and I cleaned up there, and agreed to wait with me for their return.

Mo Xiu will always do what he promised me.

Mo Xiu patted me on the back, smiled lightly and said, "Since I don't see you, there is nothing to thank."

I let go of him slowly and smiled softly.

Between him and him, it seems that saying thank you is a bit rusty.

The sound of the Gu family's arrows piercing the air seemed to be heard in the distance. It seemed that Gu Jianming still had not escaped from helping He Shou shoot fish.

When Mo Xiu and I went there, Gu Fengchun was left burying leftover fish bones and heads under the roots of a tree.

He Shou seemed to be hiccupping contentedly.

Yu Xinhe was standing on a tree, looking into the distance.

Seeing us coming, they jumped down and said to us: "Mr. Snake, down there..."

"The grass and trees are turning white." Mo Xiu smiled bitterly: "I saw it."

I didn't know what it meant, but Gu Jianming came over with the arrow shell on his back, handed me a bag of salt and said, "The salt from the ancient salt well can control the poison of origin."

Mo Xiu took a deep look, and then Gu Jianming handed it to He Shou respectfully: "Master He Shou, take a look."

He Shou took it, took a little taste in his mouth, and then nodded to me.

Moxiu took the salt and sprinkled it on the wound on my leg for me.

The wound hasn't healed yet, but it hasn't gone any further. Apart from numbness and blackening of the leg, it's actually nothing.

But probably because of He Shou's vitality.

"Bashu worships the goddess of salt water. It was the goddess of salt water who led them to find a place to live outside." Yu Xinhe explained on the side.

By this time, Gu Fengchun had already buried the fish bones and so on, and glanced at me: "I'll go ahead and explore the way."

"No need." Moxiu helped me to pull up the trousers, and helped me up: "It's even more unsafe to explore the road, let's go straight."

"What do you mean by Lord Snake?" Gu Fengchun's face darkened and he said coldly: "Master Snake means that it's not safe for me to explore the road yet? Are you afraid that I will lay an ambush to deal with Long Ling first?"

Gu Jianming looked at her in a blink of an eye, and said in a deep voice: "Sister, don't forget the Patriarch's will."

Mo Xiu just supported me and walked down, and he didn't even pay attention to Gu Fengchun.

Behind him, Gu Fengchun seemed to be arguing with Gu Jianming about something.

It was just a matter of the Gu family. Yu Xinhe and He Shou didn't listen anymore and followed us away.

"When Gu Yushi died, only He Yue was there, and he intended to entrust Bashan to Snake Lord and He Yue. Gu Fengchun was originally the young master of the Gu family. Because of this, Gu Yushi might have temporarily changed his will." Yu Xin. Crane's voice was low.

He turned to look at me and said, "You understand what I mean, right?"

"Yeah." I covered the bag containing the little velvet chicken through my outer robe, and said with a wry smile, "Let's talk about it after we get out of the snake den and Gu Yushi's funeral."

Gu Fengchun was already hostile to me, but now that I have lost my original position as head of the family, I am afraid the hostility is even deeper.

Mo Xiu didn't care about this, because in front of an absolutely strong man, any conspiracy or trick was useless.

But after we walked down the valley for a while, the vegetation here turned white.

Whether it's trees or grass, they are all the same as the dry white grass in winter, which is a bit scary white.

This looks the same as when Qingshui Town was back when all the vegetation was withered, except that there was a boundary marker in Qingshui Town.

The bleaching symptoms in this valley are obviously slowly spreading outward.

At first it was just yellowish-white, then as it went in, it became off-white, and later it became paper-white.

Even the mountain mice or small animals that come out to look for food under the winter sun are all white.

The further you go to the bottom of the valley, the more serious the situation is, and some vegetation is as white as snowflakes.

Beautiful is very beautiful, but the whole thing looks cold and lifeless, and there is a dead air that makes people feel chills in the bottom of their hearts.

Even He Shou was speechless, and turned into a black turtle, and climbed onto the shoulder of Gu Jian who was following up again.

Mo Xiu looked at the dead valley: "When did the whitening of this valley start?"
