The small animals in the forest seemed to have noticed something. They stopped and looked at the distant place, and then began to take action.
If someone is in the mountains and forests at this moment, they will find such a strange scene.
Those animals are like rivers of different colors, trying to merge into the sea and move in the same direction, where Ye Qin is.
Many animals came not far from the big rock.
Looking at the strange scene not far away, they no longer dared to step forward easily. Each of them raised their heads, like humans, with their forelimbs erect, and their noses kept sniffing in the air.
I want to capture that touch of aura between heaven and earth.
The furry faces showed an extremely comfortable expression, and these animals were also bathed in the moonlight, as if every fur was shining.
Ye Qin slowly opened his eyes and woke up again, as if he had been in another world.
The sight of bones dissipates and the fantasy ends.
It looked around, only to see a figure sitting cross-legged on the ground slowly disappearing.
"The original visualization object casts a shadow, which is reflected from the spiritual level into reality. It's amazing..."
Ye Qin muttered to himself, and then noticed the power surging in his body, and was overjoyed.
This time he fully recovered and felt that his life span had been extended by three years!
His previous guess was indeed correct. Entering the third realm can increase lifespan. Generally, the lifespan of small snakes is only 2-5 years. Now he has completely broken through this limit.
It became 2-8 years!
Now, Ye Qin's snake body is exactly five years old.
Ye Qin is confident that according to the current speed of cultivation, he will definitely be able to enter the fourth realm before the next deadline arrives!
The white bones and the bright moon slowly disappeared, everything returned to normal, and the surrounding plants gradually stopped growing.
If there were any geologists here, they would be surprised.
Because the plants in this area are incredibly long, the buds that were originally only as thick as a finger have blossomed into fist-sized flowers.
Gene mutations may not be so powerful.
But fortunately, only this part has changed, and the rest around it is just a little higher. If you don't look carefully, you can easily miss it.
A hundred meters away from Ye Qin, the green plants there had not changed much, at most they were just a little green.
The range of radiation is not very far.
When those little animals saw Ye Qin waking up again, they squeaked happily, and even the night owl's sad cry sounded a little festive.
They bowed to Ye Qin humanely, and then disappeared into the grass.
Ye Qin also returned to the cave. Looking at the bones in front of him, he couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect that you and I would be able to see each other again."
When Ye Qin left the cave, he was already prepared to not be able to come back.
Of course the bones could not give him any response, but at this moment, time passed silently, even if it could not speak.
Its existence is the greatest comfort to Ye Qin.
It's like an old friend, but also like an invisible lover, waiting to be with you for the rest of your life.
Ye Qin slowly hovered his body next to the bones, and meditated for a long time. Although he did not consume much power, it made him mentally exhausted.
What he lacks most now is a good sleep.
Outside the cave is a bright moon in the sky. Inside the cave is a bone and a snake. Time has passed and it remains unchanged forever.
On this day, Hu Xiaocao once again went up the mountain to worship with many tributes.
In addition, her basket was also filled with a lot of paper money and aid, all of which were to be burned to Ye Qin.
However, when they arrived at the original place, Xiaocao rubbed his eyes and thought he had gone the wrong way.
The boulder was empty, nothing existed at all.
Hu Xiaocao ran over quickly, "Where's Grandpa Mountain God!"
Could it be that it was pecked by an eagle or a vulture on the mountain? !
What she originally thought was that Ye Qin was a mountain god, and ordinary animals would not dare to cause trouble.
Hu Xiaocao regretted it in her heart. She didn't dare to touch Ye Qin easily before. It wasn't because she was afraid, but because she was afraid of blaspheming the mountain god, so she didn't dare to touch the snake body.
If she had known that it would be like this, she would have dug a hole and buried Ye Qin.
Hu Xiaocao's teardrops as big as beans slid down her face and wetted the paper money. With her eyes blurred by tears, she discovered that there seemed to be something under the stone.
The two colors of green and black are intertwined and curled together, like tree bark, but very long. Under the refraction of the sun, they shine with strange colors.
Hu Xiaocao picked it up and saw that it was clearly a snake slough!
The texture and color of the scales were almost the same as what she had seen on the mountain god's body before.
Hu Xiaocao was so shocked that he forgot to cry. Tears were still hanging on his eyelashes, "Could it be that Grandpa Mountain God is not dead?"
She searched everywhere, trying to find any trace of Ye Qin, but looking around, she could see all the trees covering the sky and the sun. It was not easy to find a snake.
Hu Xiaocao took the snake slough and carefully placed it in the basket, as if it were some precious treasure.
This snake slough is not ordinary. It contains part of the spiritual energy of Ye Qin's enlightenment, and is nourished by the moonlight. It is cool to the touch, and does not feel stinging like ordinary snake sloughs.
Like a fine piece of handicraft.
Although Hu Xiaocao didn't know the reason behind it, he felt that the snake shedding in front of him was particularly extraordinary.
She couldn't understand how it was possible for Ye Qin to suddenly come back to life after seeing him on the verge of death and even losing his breath.
But the snake slough in front of him cannot be faked. It was indeed shed from Ye Qin.
"Grandpa Mountain God? You are still alive, right?"
Hu Xiaocao shouted loudly, but only empty echoes came from all directions, floating into the melodious distance, startling the birds on the trees.
In addition to this complete snake slough, Hu Xiaocao also noticed that where Ye Qin had been, the surrounding plants were incredibly tall.
It was obviously not like this when she came to see him a few days ago, as if the collective had changed.
Hu Xiaocao stretched out his hand and gestured, and found that some grass was taller than himself.
The look of surprise in her eyes became more serious, and she exclaimed in a low voice: "Why did it suddenly become so long?"
She recognized one of the plants, and the nearby villagers liked to call it wild ears. This plant is very common because its leaves are like ears and can be used for cooking, so it got its name.
The average wild ears are only a few dozen centimeters long, but the one she saw in front of her was more than one meter long, more than half a head taller than her.
The leaves are so crowded together that they almost affect the plants next to them.
Hu Xiaocao was amazed by what he saw. Except for the area near Ye Qin, where the surrounding plants had a greater impact, the other places were very ordinary, nothing special.
"I just said that Grandpa Mountain God is so powerful, how could he die!"
Hu Xiaocao was so excited that after picking a large handful of wild ears, she ran down the mountain excitedly to tell her mother the good news as soon as possible.
Although he didn't see Ye Qin, Hu Xiaocao was satisfied knowing that he was still alive in this world.
After the woman learned about it, she was very happy when she saw the snake slough that Hu Xiaocao brought back and the incredibly large wild ears. She carefully collected them and placed them in front of the spirit tablet for worship!
Later, the mother and daughter came to the mountain temple again and worshiped devoutly. The afterglow of the setting sun stretched the shadows of the big one and the small one who kowtowed together.
Falling on the stone statue made of mud also adds a bit of warmth.
Although the sun is setting at the moment, in the hearts of mother and daughter, this is the beginning of hope. Just like the mountain god sheds its skin and is reborn, everything is getting better and better.
