A forest of mountains and rivers, with a mist of mist lingering between heaven and earth.
Cities stand scattered in the world, and each city seems to be separated by mountains and rivers.
A giant snake dragged a little boy behind it, swimming rapidly in one direction.
The giant snake looked tired but insistent. The giant snake was different but had no cultivation. It was running day and night with the little boy, but it gradually felt strenuous.
I don't know when, the giant snake's body was already covered with scars, some scars were scratched by bare rocks, and some scars were left by man-made weapons...
When a giant snake enters the human world, it will naturally startle people and chase them.
Although it has tried its best to avoid places where people hang out, it still cannot avoid encountering groups of people.
Seeing such a big snake, people will naturally feel scared and smash and chase it.
The giant snake seems to only care about rushing, and does no harm to those who chase and smash it without knowing the truth...
The little boy behind the giant snake was already lying on the giant snake's body exhausted, looking confused.
"Orochi, how long will it take for us... to find the Human Emperor?" The little boy lay on the giant snake and asked weakly to the giant snake.
The big snake's body stopped, turned its head to look at the little boy behind it, and slowly scrawled two words on the ground with its tail:
Soon.
The little boy looked at the two words on the ground, with a small hint of comfort in his expression.
"That's good, we need to tell the Emperor quickly... there is red mist killing people."
The big snake raised its head and looked at the distant sky, as if it didn't know when it would reach it. There was a very humane look of sadness in its eyes.
In fact, they are still far away from the imperial city... They cannot walk too fast in their mortal bodies...
After coming all the way, the little boy's body had reached its limit.
However, they couldn't stop, even if they just stopped for a short rest...
The big snake turned its head and glanced behind it, then continued to swim forward very quickly.
I saw that not far behind the giant snake was the red mist that spread rapidly. Those who chased and smashed them became silent after being swallowed by the red mist...
No matter how fast they ran, they could not escape the pursuit of the spreading red mist.
As soon as they stop, the red mist seems to be able to catch up with them immediately...
The big snake silently carried the little boy on his back and rushed in a direction that seemed to never reach him, and the breath of the little boy behind him became weaker and weaker.
The big snake often turned his head to look at the little boy behind him, with sadness gradually appearing in his expression.
But, it can't stop. I can't let him take a break, and I can't let myself take a break...
I don’t know how long I have been walking, but once I meet someone along the way, it will still be the same as before.
If there are few people, people will immediately run away in fear. If there are many people, they will immediately raise various iron tools in their hands and smash them towards the big snake.
When they saw a dying little boy behind it, they took it for granted that the snake demon was harming people...
However, it cannot be explained...and it cannot be stopped.
The red mist not far behind is still spreading, and getting faster and faster...
There are more and more scars on the body, and the speed of the big snake is getting slower and slower.
Gradually, the big snake ran up the hill in a panic, and a cliff blocked it.
The big snake stopped and looked at the high cliff with a sad expression.
"Are we...there?"
The little boy's voice sounded like he was talking in his sleep, weak and soft...
The little boy felt that the big snake had stopped and woke up again.
The red mist filling the sky not far behind me has spread for thousands of miles...
The red mist is like a strange curse. Anyone who comes into contact with it will fall into a kind of madness that is neither life nor death, and those who are touched by these people will also become the same monsters.
The big snake turned its head and spit out the snake letter and licked the little boy's cheek. The little boy's eyes were gray and heavy, and it seemed that he could no longer see things.
It can't tell him about the current situation...
There is a strange red mist behind, and there is a cliff in front of you.
There seems to be no way out...
The big snake turned to look at the red mist behind him again, wrapped his body around the little boy, and then resolutely jumped down the cliff.
boom!
Rocks fell and dust flew.
The huge body of the big snake kept stumbling on the cliff, and then fell heavily to the ground.
The sound of bones breaking could be heard from the snake's body, and its body was covered in bright red...
The giant snake's eyes were filled with darkness, and the severe pain radiating from all parts of its body instantly made it faint.
But even if it faints, its huge body still firmly protects the little boy inside...
After an unknown amount of time, the big snake woke up faintly. The red mist behind seemed to have been stopped by the upward cross wind under the cliff, and it has not come down for the time being...
The big snake forcibly braced himself up, and when his senses gradually recovered, the big snake carefully unfolded his body and slowly looked at the little boy wrapped in his body...
But, I don’t know when...
The little boy's body was already cold.
The big snake raised its head and looked at the little boy blankly, tears gradually falling from its eyes...
The spirit snake sheds tears, which is unprecedented in history.
The little boy lay quietly on the big snake's body, which was cushioned by himself, with his eyes closed and lifeless.
The big snake stretched out its head affectionately and gently rubbed the little boy's body. Then he spat out the snake letter and licked the dried blood on the little boy's face.
After several years of getting along, the big snake seemed to have already become accustomed to the tacit understanding with the little boy.
One person and one snake, I don’t know when they have become friends...
Even if he knew that if he brought a little boy into the world, he would be hurt by people. But after the little boy spoke, it came anyway.
He said: I want to tell the Emperor...
It then took him to find the Human Emperor...even if the road was separated by endless mountains and seas.
The big snake gently rolled up the little boy's stiff body and gently placed it on its back...
"Orochi, can you take me to find the Human Emperor?"
Those childish words of the little boy seem to still be in my ears...
The wind blowing upwards under the cliff seemed to be gradually unable to block the spreading red mist, which began to move towards the bottom of the cliff.
The big snake dragged its scarred body and carried the little boy's stiff body on its back, heading in that distant direction with difficulty...
It promised him... to take him to find the Human Emperor in white.
It was the birthplace of spiritual consciousness, and he had only one friend...
Can't break my promise...
