Cultivation is like this. It can't always be smooth sailing. There will always be various problems, especially since all cultivation is Ye Qin's exploration, and he is not born with it.
No one is perfect, even saints make mistakes and get confused.
Fortunately, Ye Qin's mentality was very good and he was not worried about this. Maybe he just missed the opportunity.
Reaching this point is far beyond Ye Qin's expectation. This life was originally saved. Even if his cultivation stops here in the future, it will be a profit for him.
Thinking of this, Ye Qin suddenly became enlightened.
He took a look outside the cave. After a night of heavy rain, there were puddles of all sizes everywhere.
The low-lying areas have been flooded, and many voles and small animals can be seen looking for new homes on the ground.
The location of the cave has good terrain and no water accumulation, so Ye Qin does not have to worry about being flooded. Otherwise, he may have to find a new place.
I don't know if he is used to this place. If Ye Qin is asked to change places again, he may not be able to adapt to it.
Now let’s talk about where to find such a secluded and spacious cave.
The most important thing is that he practiced enlightenment in the cave and saved a small life, which is equivalent to regaining a new life here, so Ye Qin does not want to leave until it is absolutely necessary.
From now on, the cave will be his lair, his base camp.
Although they are now snakes, they still retain human habits in some places, such as not wanting to get wet when it rains.
Ye Qin was too lazy to go out and hid in the cave to practice, hoping to break through the bottleneck and find the next direction of practice.
After several days of heavy rain, it finally cleared up.
Seeing the long-lost sunshine in the sky, dispersing the haze and dark clouds of the past few days, Ye Qin also planned to go out to relax and hunt for food.
Probably due to his training, his appetite has become larger and he needs to eat more energy and nutrients.
As soon as I climbed out of the cave, I could smell the fishy smell in the soil after the heavy rain, as well as the fragrance of green leaves.
"Huh."
Ye Qin seemed to have discovered something. He looked at the reflective object not far away and quickly crawled over.
It was a small puddle, or more accurately, a footprint, with a shallow layer of water inside.
Because of the heavy rain for several days, the soil has become very soft, and people or large animals will leave marks when they pass by.
"Are there humans passing by here?"
Judging from the traces of these footprints, they should have been formed not long ago.
Ye Qin thought. He had no positioning or navigation system. It would be difficult to get out of this deep mountain forest, but it would be different if someone guided him.
"Maybe I can follow him and find a way out of the mountain."
Ye Qin had just traveled through time, and it could be said that his eyes were completely blank. He didn't even know where he was. He could use this opportunity to figure out his current location.
And he had planned to go to the city once to learn some knowledge.
The snake letter shook back and forth in the air, and the traces finally disappeared in the southeast direction. Ye Qin immediately chased after it, and as expected, he saw the footprints again.
Ye Qin followed the footprints and walked for a long time. The vegetation around him became sparser and sparse, and his field of vision became wider. An asphalt road not far away came into view.
Occasionally, a few cars passed by quickly, and Ye Qin felt that the ground where he was was shaking.
"Tuk-tuk-"
Hearing the long-lost car horn, he felt as if he was a world away.
In Ye Qin's eyes, the familiar means of transportation in his previous life were like huge steel monsters that could easily crush his current body into a snake trunk.
Ye Qin was a little embarrassed and quickly looked away. As long as he kept walking along this main road, he should be able to enter the city.
The blue traffic sign not far away let Ye Qin know where he was.
This is the junction of Fog City and Tianfu Province. It is surrounded by mountains, with endless green hills and mountains, among which there are even more steep peaks. Countless creatures grow here.
The rich and fertile land provides them with nutrients, leading to biodiversity here and a good ecological environment.
On winding mountain roads like this, there are occasionally wild animals.
Ye Qin walked along the main road. When he got tired, he found a more secluded place, practiced visualization to regain his energy, and then continued moving forward.
It wasn't until the next morning, when the sky was slightly white, that he finally reached his destination.
The foggy city is surrounded by mountains and rivers. In the city, there are stretches of Bashan Mountain, crisscrossed by the Chongqing River, and the surrounding high-rise buildings, forming a unique landscape.
It was just dawn at this moment, and there was still a lot of water vapor in the morning, which had not completely evaporated. A thin veil shrouded the entire city, adding a hazy beauty.
This is where the reputation of "Fog City" comes from.
Although it is still early, the city has already woken up. The street vendors are shouting loudly, and in the steaming heat, handfuls of white noodles are sprinkled into the soup and water, starting a busy day for ordinary people.
The city is like a steel forest, row upon row of streets, criss-crossing roads like a chessboard, and workers rushing for a living. Everything seems so familiar and strange to Ye Qin.
Because once, he was one of these people.
And things that were once of equal proportions were suddenly magnified several times, which could be very dangerous for Ye Qin's current small body.
Not to mention cars, even bicycles, or even a passerby's kick can cause him injury.
Fortunately, his previous life experience in the wild has made him accustomed to the perspective of such giants. The only thing he is not used to is that the mountain is open and there are no obstacles except some plants.
But it's different here. Various buildings and dense crowds are all crammed into one city, making it seem a bit crowded.
Ye Qin didn't want to expose his body to avoid being beaten to death by others. After all, he had just started practicing and was far from having magical powers. He could only use the surrounding green belts or pipelines to move forward.
Although snakes are not like rats crossing the street, and everyone shouts to beat them, they are not popular in the eyes of modern people, and they are still more fearful.
The wind blew from nowhere, and a piece of paper floated over. It was a topographic map of the city.
"This is really destiny..."
Ye Qin was speechless for a moment, doubting whether there really was such a thing as fate.
He was worried that he couldn't find the direction, and planned to walk around the city before talking, but the rain had arrived, so he looked at the map in front of him and studied it carefully, and finally his eyes fell on the location of the "Fog City Library".
These days, he has been confused about spiritual practice, but he has been unable to solve it. There are many books in the library, maybe he can find the answer, and even if he can't find it, at least it can answer part of the confusion.
Although it may be more convenient to surf the Internet, you cannot expect a snake to be able to turn on a computer or type on a keyboard, and if someone sees it, it may be caught as a monster.
So after thinking about it, it would be more useful to go to a place like the library.
Ye Qin was so absorbed in looking at the map that he didn't notice the movement not far away.
