The family members naturally refused. They said they had finally caught them, but you let them go just as you said?
The kid thought for a moment and said, "I don't have any money either. I'll go home and steal my mother's gold hairpin in exchange for the snake's life."
He really did what he said, he ran home directly, stole the gold hairpin while his mother was not paying attention, gave it to the family, and replaced it with the big snake.
Then, he carried the bag containing the snake, came to the mountain, and released the big snake.
The big snake was moved to tears, nodded to the child a few times, and then silently returned to the mountains, and did not come out for five years from then on.
The reason why he didn't come out was not that he didn't dare to go down the mountain, but that he was dead.
Snakes also have a limited lifespan. Although some decent snakes can live for hundreds or even hundreds of years, they are too few and very rare.
Scientific research shows that the life span of snakes is actually not very long. It is generally a few years or more than ten years. The python has a longer life span, but it is only a few decades.
Actually, that's because they don't know. Can humans discover the truly long-lived python?
Who dares to let humans discover it?
Generally speaking, those pythons that have lived for hundreds or even hundreds of years are in inaccessible mountains and are usually not seen by humans at all.
As for this Snake Immortal, his innate breed is a bit lacking. He is not a python, so his life span of several decades is already the limit. Even if he lives longer, he will not reach hundreds of years.
Especially this time, he was frightened when he went down the mountain and soaked in wine for more than two months. His energy was severely damaged and his body gradually weakened. In the end, he was unable to bear it and died.
However, even though he died, he had practiced in the mountains for decades and his spiritual body had matured. This time he was no longer bound by the physical body and felt much more at ease.
But he also knows that it is extremely difficult for animals to cultivate immortality. It is actually better to have a physical body. At least you don't have to worry too much about thunder disasters.
Unless you have lived too long, or have cultivated to a certain level and attracted God's attention, it is usually fine.
But now that he is a spirit body, he will face more disasters, so he thought that he might as well go down the mountain and find someone to seek shelter.
When he thought about it carefully, he remembered that the child who saved him back then could just go down the mountain to be his family's guardian immortal, so that he could not only offer incense but also get protection.
Because Baojiaxian is a system of Master Hu San, many people may not understand what this means. In fact, it is equivalent to entering the immortal sect and obtaining a junior immortal cultivation license.
Although there will still be many disasters in this process, at least it is much better than those wild monsters of scattered immortals.
In this way, the snake fairy went down the mountain again, found the child from back then, and after using some magical powers, he successfully became the guardian fairy of Lao Wang's family.
By this time, the child had grown up and had a family. He was very good to the Snake Fairy, and he never forgot to worship him on the first or fifteenth day of the lunar month. The Snake Fairy also followed the mentality of repaying kindness and always kept Lao Wang's family safe.
According to his idea, he wanted to bless the three generations of Lao Wang's family for a hundred years.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Let alone a hundred years, even ten years were not used before the eradication of the four olds began.
Of course, these things turned into monsters and ghosts, and they could not escape their fate. They were smashed to pieces, and then the snake gods had no choice but to escape back to the mountains.
The child had no choice but to tell the Snake Fairy: I originally wanted to worship you all the time, but I can't do it now. You should practice well after you return to the mountain. If we are destined to meet again in the future, let's get together.
As soon as I said this, forty years passed in the blink of an eye.
The child back then has turned into a real Lao Wang. At this time, it is no longer a heinous thing to protect the family immortal, and he has been waiting for the return of the snake immortal.
But he didn't know that after the snake immortal returned to the mountain, he practiced for decades, which coincided with the first hundred-year catastrophe.
Generally speaking, every hundred years for animal cultivation, there will be a disaster.
There is another saying that it is a small catastrophe every 300 years and a big catastrophe every 500 years.
But no matter what, every hundred years, various disasters will come.
On the one hand, these catastrophes can be said to be tests and training from God. In fact... it is God controlling the number of animals practicing and not allowing them to succeed in cultivation easily.
I will talk about this later.
In short, the snake fairy finally survived the first disaster. When he came to the human world again, he found that his benefactor was seriously ill, dying, and was about to die.
He couldn't help feeling that life was short and fleeting. In just a few decades, a child had turned into an old man and was about to die.
So he told his benefactor, I originally wanted to come back and continue to bless your family, but I didn't expect that you were already leaving.
Lao Wang was already about to die, and his yang energy was weak, but he was able to see the snake fairy. He was very happy and moved.
He said to the snake fairy, I am very happy to see you come back in my lifetime, but I am already going to be buried. When I die, if you care about the past fate, please continue to take care of my descendants. Thank you very much.
The Snake Fairy agreed with tears in his eyes, and then Lao Wang wanted to call his son to explain. Unfortunately, before he could do so, he held his breath and did not come up because he was too happy, so he drove directly to Hexi.
After Lao Wang died, his family didn't even know about the snake fairy's visit. Later, the snake fairy showed his magical powers several times and wanted his family to continue to worship him.
Unfortunately, Lao Wang's son is a stubborn person, and his humanity is not very good, so he doesn't believe this at all.
Note that the old Wang here is the grandfather of the current Xiao Wang. The son of this Lao Wang is naturally the father of the current Xiao Wang, that is, the bastard who used nails to nail the snake fairy.
Moreover, at this time, a house repair incident had already occurred in Lao Wang's house, and someone put a security guard on the roof.
The creature is actually very vicious. On the surface it looks like a mountain rat, but in fact it is an extraordinary mountain rat.
After hearing this, I said that this is really a word from you, which is better than a word. Isn't this still a mountain rat? What's the difference?
The Snake Fairy said that was different. This mountain rat was beaten by Lao Lu next door in the mountains. However, he did not beat him to death directly. Instead, he hung him up and bled to death.
After his death, Lao Lu soaked the mountain rats in blood with unknown condiments added for eighteen days.
Then while Lao Wang's house was on the roof, he placed this thing on the northeast corner of the roof of Lao Wang's house, which was equivalent to casting a curse.
The Snake Fairy knew everything about this matter, but if Lao Wang's family didn't enshrine him, he couldn't control it. He could only do his best to make Lao Wang's family as safe as possible.
However, the power of the town object is very powerful, and Lao Wang's family has never had any offspring. Xiao Wang has been married for eight years and has not been able to give birth to a single one.
