When the little green snake woke up from the side effects of "snake sloughing", the sun had slowly set.
"hiss!"
A small head quietly emerged from Pei Wende's collar, and the little green snake vaguely seemed to hear the other party's voice talking to someone else.
But when the little green snake held its breath and watched intently, she didn't see anyone near Pei Wende.
Not only that, there was no one coming and going on this country road, which was comparable to an official road. Only Pei Wende was walking here alone.
"you're awake?"
Pei Wende noticed the little green snake's movements for the first time and didn't want the other party to know Chen Zhengdao's existence. He immediately ended the conversation.
Anyway, Chen Zhengdao now only has a ray of soul power left, and Pei Wende is not worried at all that the little green snake can see him.
Because the real Chen Zhengdao is dead, and now only the illusion in Pei Wende's mind is left. This is the biggest reason why he had to turn to Pei Wende for help.
"hiss……"
Keenly aware of Pei Wende's concealment, the little green snake let out a low hissing sound.
"It's nothing. You heard me wrong. I wasn't talking to anyone just now."
Having already been able to hear various emotions through the neighing of the little green snake, Pei Wende immediately shook his head in denial.
"hiss!"
The low snake chirping suddenly increased in volume, and the little green snake didn't believe Pei Wende's words at all.
After all, although ordinary people have poor hearing indoors, the little green snake that transformed into a spirit and is building ears has a hearing that is beyond ordinary people.
After its ear openings are fully formed, even if it cannot reach the level of hearing of "Shunfeng Ear", it is not far behind.
"You ask me why I don't go back to the temple?"
Pei Wende scratched the back of his head in distress. Pei Wende, who was not good at lying, could only forcefully make up a reason.
"That's because I sensed the danger. That Li Gang is a big trouble."
"If we can't convince him, he might return to Zhangjiacun as soon as we leave."
"By that time, the three civet brothers will be in dire straits."
Not sure whether he believed it or not, the little green snake did not continue to neigh, but turned around and felt his current state.
As mentioned before, preserving itself by shedding its scales in a short period of time is a unique way of self-preservation for the little green snake.
In every battle in the past, Little Green Snake didn't think there was anything wrong with this self-protection method that was similar to "a golden cicada escaping its shell".
Because it can grow to this point little by little because of this secret method of "snake shedding".
Even in the several battles with tigers, the little green snake used this method to quickly return to its peak state and escape from death.
However, today, the little green snake suddenly discovered the shortcomings of this secret method of "snake shedding".
Since the little green snake at this moment has no scales and its shape is closer to that of a python, it can clearly feel the heat coming from Pei Wende's body surface.
It was a heat that the little green snake, a cold-blooded animal, had never felt before. The warmth did not harm itself, but instead gave it an extremely comfortable feeling.
A large part of the reason why the little green snake was able to sleep so peacefully before was because of this warm feeling, which made it let down its guard.
However, the little green snake didn't like this feeling. On the contrary, it made it feel strongly uneasy.
Except for the time when it was born, the little green snake spent the past hundred years fighting.
Especially after transforming into a spirit monster, even when sleeping most peacefully, the little green snake always maintains a vigilant heart and can wake up from its slumber at any time.
In a sense, the short nap just now should be regarded as the most peaceful sleep the little green snake has had in decades - although it does not like this kind of complete loss of vigilance.
"..."
Carefully controlling himself not to neigh, the green snake squirmed and coiled its body as much as possible, hoping to reduce the contact area with Pei Wende.
However, that warm feeling cannot be solved by reducing the body contact area.
The excessively close contact made the little green snake feel uneasy and also felt a bit nostalgic.
Just a little while, just a little while...
With this thought in mind, the little green snake that just opened its eyes fell into a deep sleep again, as if it had never woken up at all.

"As a disciple of Buddhism, I raise monsters..."
After confirming that the little green snake was really asleep, Chen Zhengdao, who only Pei Wende could see, shook his head and said.
"You are indeed an abnormal guy, no wonder..."
Speaking of this, Chen Zhengdao seemed to suddenly realize something and stopped what he was going to say in time.
"You also know that I am a Buddhist disciple?"
He didn't notice Chen Zhengdao's strange pause at all, and he was also a little uncomfortable with the sudden intimacy of the little green snake. Pei Wende could only lower his voice and said.
"I, the Buddha, believe in equality for all living beings. I am just practicing this concept!"
Obviously not believing what Pei Wende said, Chen Zhengdao opened his mouth hesitantly, and finally chose to skip the question.
"The sun is going down now. If you don't hurry up, you may have to rest in the wild tonight."
Just as Chen Zhengdao said, the sun was already setting in the west at this moment, which would be about five or six o'clock in later generations.
If Pei Wende doesn't hurry up, he will really have to sleep in the wild tonight.
In this day and age, being outdoors at night can be very dangerous.
In addition to the tigers and wolves in the mountains and fields, the evil spirits hiding in the dark are also a feature of this era.
Rao is a practitioner of Chen Zhengdao's level and would never choose to rest in the wild if possible.
"That's true! If we speed up now, we should be able to catch up with Li Gang."
As soon as Pei Wende said this, Chen Zhengdao couldn't help but strike again.
"Catching up with Li Gang? You're thinking too much!"
"Although that boy is lazy and lazy, his talent in cultivation is far superior to yours."
"In addition, he also has the 'Tiangang Sword' forged by Zhao Guizhen, the national master of the dynasty..."
"Once you transform into a rainbow and fly with a sword, traveling thousands of miles in a day is not difficult at all."
In this regard, Pei Wende, who had seen the power of the Tiangang Sword, did not refute much. He just emphasized a fact with a calm face.
"Li Gang may indeed have the ability to travel thousands of miles in a day, but Fu Dou and your corpse certainly don't have this ability."
"So as long as you can sense where your body is, I will have a way to catch up with him before dark."
