On the other side, as Hu Xiaocao continued to go deeper, when he occasionally felt scared, he glanced at the bright moon above his head and seemed not to be so scared anymore.
The little person is walking, and the moon is walking with her.
The silver glow was like a mother's big hand, caressing her face and dispelling the surrounding darkness.
After an unknown amount of time, Hu Xiaocao felt that her surroundings seemed a little brighter. The light seemed to be coming from not far ahead. She pushed aside a bush that was half a person tall.
"ah!"
The scene before her eyes shocked her.
I saw a bright moon in the sky, and under the moon, there was a long snake lying down.
The moonlight shines on the snake, as if it has been coated with a layer of silver.
The whole snake is obviously green with black, but when viewed under the moonlight, it is as transparent as jade, and every snake scale seems to be glowing with white light. It is so holy that people can't help but want to bow. Worship.
The moonlight is flowing, as if it is swallowing the moonlight
Because of their appearance and the fact that some snakes are highly venomous, most people are frightened or intimidated when they see them.
But the snake in front of Hu Xiaocao had nothing to do with ugliness, and even felt that it was particularly sacred for some reason.
Hu Xiaocao couldn't help but cover her mouth, and looked up at the sky. The bright moon hung in the sky, incredibly huge.
She rubbed her eyes, and then she seemed to think of something, and her eyes suddenly became bright, as if stars were falling.
"Is it Grandpa Mountain God?"
"It must be Grandpa Mountain God, otherwise why would such a strange scene appear!"
But how could Grandpa Mountain God be a snake?
But... there is no rule that the mountain god cannot be a snake.
After thinking about this, Hu Xiaocao felt awe-struck.
Based on such strange sights and the words that the adults had said before, Hu Xiaocao was certain.
The snake in front of me is the mountain god!
No wonder, even the snake scales of the mountain god look so different!
She quickly knelt down, took out the wild fruits she had picked on the road, wiped them on her sleeves, and placed them respectfully in front of her.
"Grandpa Mountain God, please help my mother get better soon and let me find plants that bloom at night. Xiaocao will definitely work hard to pick more fruits to honor you..."
Hu Xiaocao muttered to himself and kept kowtowing, looking very pious.
When she was about to get up, she didn't pay attention to the path under her feet. She suddenly jumped into the air and waved her hands randomly, trying to grab something to stabilize her body.
However, there was no support at all, only a few fragile plants, which she pulled out casually, and then the whole person rolled down.
In the last scene before losing consciousness, he vaguely saw a slender shadow crawling towards him, and the crescent moon in the sky seemed to be getting closer.
The silver glow shone on Hu Xiaocao's face, as if it could drive away all the pain.
Is this an illusion?
Hu Xiaocao had never felt that the moon was so close to her, as if she could reach it. She slowly smiled and then fainted.
Ye Qin looked at the little girl lying in front of him. Fortunately, the slope was not steep. Apart from a few skin injuries, Hu Xiaocao was fine.
"Grandpa Mountain God?"
Several question marks slowly popped up in his mind. He had good hearing, and even from a distance, he could clearly hear the words Hu Xiaocao muttered.
How could this little girl tell that he was so old?
Even if the ages in his previous life were added up, he had not yet reached the age of three, so how could he suddenly become a grandfather-like figure.
Ye Qin's snake letter trembled, and he suddenly stood upright, his snake pupils faintly turning into a vertical line.
"Hu...little...cao..."
A few words came from the cool night breeze, followed by footsteps, which were quickly caught by Ye Qin.
It is estimated that this group of people will come looking for them before long.
Hearing the noise not far away, Ye Qin's tail tip pointed again, and he also hid in the jungle.
Soon the villagers came over holding flashlights.
"Found it! That little girl is here."
Seeing Hu Xiaocao lying on the ground with his eyes closed, not knowing whether he was alive or dead, everyone became nervous.
Wu Yuan took a look and saw that although Hu Xiaocao looked miserable, there were no fatal wounds on his body, except for a bruise on his forehead. He breathed.
"That's great. I just fainted. Nothing's wrong with me."
After everyone heard this, their hearts hanging in their throats could finally let go.
From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the plant Hu Xiaocao was holding inside, and his pupils flashed with shock, "This is! Evening primrose!"
He did not expect that Hu Xiaocao would actually find Evening Primrose.
However, even if evening primrose is found, it will only treat the symptoms of Hu Xiaocao's mother's disease, not the root cause, but only have a nursing effect.
Wu Yuan took Hu Xiaocao back and said, "Nothing is wrong with him. He will wake up after a while."
The woman almost knelt down in front of Wu Yuan, but fortunately Wu Yuan had quick eyesight and quick hands to stop her, "Young lady, you can't do this."
"Thank you, Uncle Wu, and thank you all fellow villagers."
The woman's eyes were red and she bowed deeply to everyone. The villagers were simple and waved their hands, indicating that they didn't need to care.
Hu Xiaocao vaguely heard someone calling his name, and suddenly opened his eyes. What he saw was his mother's worried face, and there were several familiar uncles around him.
"Mom, why am I here? Hey, wasn't I on the mountain..."
The woman looked nervous and asked, "Xiaocao, do you feel uncomfortable in any way?"
Hu Xiaocao shook his head, "Don't worry, Mom, I'm a tough little grass, I'm strong."
When the woman saw the skinny Hu Xiaocao, in order not to worry herself, she deliberately said such words and even patted her chest, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
The people around him were also quite moved.
This mother and daughter are notoriously pitiable in the village.
The hemp rope will break at the thinnest part, and the bad luck will only seek out the misfortune.
When Hu Xiaocao recalled the last scene before losing consciousness, she seemed to see the mountain god crawling towards her!
She didn't know if it was her hallucination, but one thing Hu Xiaocao was sure of was that Grandpa Mountain God definitely existed.
Hu Xiaocao was very excited, "Mom, I just saw the mountain god! Do you know that the mountain god is actually a snake? There is also a huge moon, bigger than our stove. I almost touched the moon. ..."
Hu Xiaocao danced excitedly and gestured in front of everyone.
However, everyone did not take it seriously and only thought it was Hu Xiaocao's imagination. In addition, she had recently heard rumors about Wang Dazhu and Zhou Niu, so she said such things.
"Okay, Xiaocao."
The woman touched Hu Xiaocao's head tenderly, her eyes were slightly red, and she looked at the small wounds exposed on her face, all of which were scratched by branches and leaves.
Although it is not fatal, it is still very distressing to see it on a half-year-old child.
"It's been a tiring day. You must be obedient from now on and don't go to the mountains without permission, especially at night. It's too dangerous. Do you know that mom is really worried about you?"
The woman's voice gradually became choked as she hugged Hu Xiaocao.
Hu Xiaocao could feel a hot tear falling on her shoulder, and then she felt a little regretful. She was too impulsive and made her mother worry.
"Sorry mom, I won't do it next time."
