Chapter 8: Snake Hunting
Shen Zhi's eyes drifted to Mu Manting involuntarily, but when he saw her and Qin Hai talking intimately, his mood could not help but be a little gloomy. He took out a few seeds from his arms, handed them to Yi Qianqian, and said, "I'm going to rest first. Everyone can study supernatural powers more when they have time."
After that, he turned back to his separate stone chamber and drilled into the ground again. Perhaps through work, he can stop being distracted and focus on the things in front of him.
Yi Qianqian didn't even say thank you, and clenched the seeds in her hand, and could only see his lonely figure leaving.
Shen Zhi planned to continue his work in the afternoon. He planned to dig a safe house in another direction farther away, and lead to the ground, so that another exit could be formed. Increase their chances of survival and provide more options and possibilities.
At this time, it was already the composition of soil, and the decomposition speed was getting faster and faster. Suddenly, his hand was empty, and a dark hole appeared in front of him. A hissing sound came, and a slippery whip-like rope in the dark quickly wrapped around his hand, causing him to feel a sharp pain.
He retreated quickly, trying to break free from the mysterious entanglement, but the rope became tighter and tighter. At this time, a pair of vertical eyes shining with silver light emerged in the darkness. Through the light emitted by the eyes, Shen Zhi finally saw the true face of this thing.
It was the head of a snake, with fangs shining coldly under the silver vertical eyes, and the snake's tongue was wrapped around his hand.
"Not good!" Shen Zhi's face changed drastically in an instant. Such a big snake head, how long should its body be? The entire tunnel was only half a body, and he didn't even have a place to hide. He must not let its body come over. Once entangled, he would definitely die.
His thoughts had never been so fast. In an instant, he thought of various scenarios and his own end. He howled wildly, and instead of retreating, he instantly held the snake's open mouth with both hands, and pressed the snake's head to the edge of the cave sideways. At this moment, he showed amazing strength and physical fitness. Although the snake struggled fiercely, he withstood the snake's attack.
The snake head exudes a silver light, which is the sign of the beast's protective light film that Fan Yong once mentioned. With Shen Zhi's ability, he can't kill the snake at all. Although his hands have been pierced by the snake's teeth and the venom has penetrated into the body, he has expected this.
Although living things cannot be decomposed, the venom that enters the body can. Therefore, he is not afraid of the stalemate with the snake. He still has a weapon, which is his head and teeth. As long as he can exhaust the opponent's silver light body protection, he has a chance to cause damage.
He began to hit the snake head violently with his head, while using his own energy to repair it. The small black stone in his arms finally came in handy and became his reserve energy. The shaking on the other side was even more severe, but this narrow hole could only accommodate the snake head through, and its body could not come over.
Suddenly, a cold current spurted out of the big snake's mouth, instantly freezing half of Shen Zhi's body. Immediately afterwards, a bloody mouth covered and swallowed his upper body directly.
Shen Zhi never thought that the other party had such a supernatural power. Although he quickly dissolved the frozen state, the situation was already extremely dangerous. The pain all over his body included corrosion, frostbite, etc. He had no time to take care of it. His hands directly began to destroy everything in the inner cavity of the snake. At the same time, his legs used force to push the snake's head to the top of the passage to prevent the whole person from being swallowed.
Fortunately, the passage was not large, otherwise he would have been buried in the snake's belly. At this critical moment, Shen Zhi showed amazing perseverance and desire to survive. He kept struggling and resisting, and the snake was also insisting. Shen Zhi's internal destruction made it miserable, and there were several consecutive cold currents, but they were all resolved by Shen Zhi. Relying on the recovery of the small black stone in his arms, he finally resisted all the means of the other party.
Time passed by minute by minute, and finally, Shen Zhi relied on the small black stone to laugh to the end. When he struggled to crawl out of the mouth of the big snake, the whole cave had become extremely dark and unusually quiet. The silver light had disappeared, and the big snake was dead.
Shen Zhi lay exhausted on the ground, breathing heavily, feeling pain and fatigue all over his body. He knew that his body was probably corroded beyond recognition, because the snake was full of poison, and its blood and flesh were all corrosive.
A silent smile appeared on his face, and he reached out to touch the small black stone in his arms. It had shrunk several times. If he didn't have this treasure, he would definitely die.
The most important thing now is to repair himself. The energy of the soil is too little, and the small black stone can no longer be used. This is a life-saving thing. He could only reach out to touch the snake head. This snake was full of poison, and it could not be eaten even if he took it back.
Living things cannot be decomposed, but dead ones can. The energy of living things is more abundant. As the snake head disappeared, he came to the other side of the cave.
This is a wide cave, and a faint silver light falls from the entrance diagonally above. The body of a dark giant snake that has lost its head and is only five to six meters long lies on the ground, with traces of its struggle left on the side and the ground.
As Shen Zhi decomposed the snake's body to repair himself, he looked at the silver light that was falling. The silver light was like a mysterious beam of light, covering the entire cave in a soft light. The light jumped on the surface of the rock, like twinkling stars, giving people a sense of tranquility and peace. But his mind was full of thoughts. In this alien world, the risk of death was everywhere. He had experienced several crises in just two days. However, what annoyed him the most was himself.
You know, his senses have been able to detect danger. He was able to successfully avoid other caves several times before. But tonight, the intimate figures of Mu Manting and Qin Hai always appeared in his mind, which made him unable to concentrate.
This is the last thing that should happen. In this dangerous world, any negligence may lead to fatal consequences.
After decomposing the entire venomous snake, Shen Zhi felt that his body was finally fully restored, and even his body, strength and spirit were stronger than before. He clenched his fist and felt his surging power. This is the capital for him to settle down in this alien world.
Climb out of the cave through the exit above, and the exit is still in the jungle. The damage after the battle of thousands of lightning yesterday has been repaired, and only a trace of damage remains in the land. At this time, a huge silver plate was hanging high in the sky, sprinkling a faint silver light. He saw countless animals and plants hiding in the dark and looking up to breathe, and the faint silver light was sucked into their stomachs. Such a scene of beast training made Shen Zhi feel shocked.
Perhaps, these beasts have surpassed the category of ordinary animals and should be called monsters. No wonder Fan Yong said that these monsters are extremely smart, they are already spirits and monsters, this is the world of immortals and demons.
