After Bai Jun swallowed the strange grass in his belly, he found a stone hole as big as a bowl next to the cave and went in. It was so dark inside that the two little mice ran out in a panic.
Bai Jun didn't chase him, because he felt that his stomach was already heating up, as if the grass had taken effect.
He crossed his body and quietly felt the changes in his body. A feeling of heat in his belly gradually expanded and spread all over his body. Bai Yan lay weakly on the ground. After the strong heat sensation passed, his whole body ached.
Bai Jun was shocked. Did he eat poisonous weeds? But even poisonous weeds shouldn't have such a powerful effect on poisonous snakes?
The pain had penetrated deeply into Bai Jun's bone marrow, and all the snake bones in his body were also in pain. Bai Jun even vaguely seemed to hear the cracking sound of his own bones.
Bai Jun went crazy with pain, swung the snake's tail hard against the rocks, and hit the stone wall with his head, hoping to use these methods to relieve the terrible pain and burning.
But Bai Jun couldn't bear the terrible pain, and he passed out half an hour later.
At night, there was a sudden mountain breeze in the calm forest. In the dark and silent night, there seemed to be some kind of beast that preyed on people. The wind suddenly rose, the dark clouds closed the moon, and a huge figure sprang out of the darkness, heading straight for the hunter.
in the cave.
The dim flames in the cave reflected the appearance of a huge tiger, and a tiger roar sounded, sending all beasts into panic.
The tiger bit off the hunter's head in one bite. The tiger stripe with the word "king" in the middle of its eyebrow suddenly emitted a faint black mist. The black mist swelled in the wind and turned into a width of ten feet, wrapping the hunter's body.
The tiger lowered its head and began to bite and devour the hunter's bones piece by piece.
Less than half an hour later, there was only a pile of scattered flesh and blood left on the ground, and the hunter's figure could no longer be seen.
The tiger roared loudly, and a figure appeared in the black mist, and that figure was exactly the same as the disappeared hunter.
The hunter looked at the tiger in front of him in horror, "Am I dead?"
"You are dead and now a ghost!"
The tiger actually uttered human words.
"Ghost?" The hunter looked at his body and exclaimed: "Then why didn't I reincarnate?"
The tiger laughed ferociously, "Because you have become my king's puppet!"
After saying that, the tiger raised its head, and the tiger stripe with the word "king" on its head disappeared. The black mist and the figure of the hunter disappeared.
The tiger turned back and ran away with a gust of mountain wind.
Bai Jun, who was hiding in a cave and passed out, didn't know that he had just escaped this disaster.
Soon the night passed, the sky was bright, and several mountain rats came smelling the smell of blood and gnawed on the finely chopped flesh and blood in the cave.
Later, several wild dogs and lynxes also ran over and ate the broken bones and flesh.
At dusk, a few crows flew down and looked for carrion in the gravel to fill their stomachs.
There are also many mountain ants coming in groups to carry the fine debris.
Just two days later, some tattered cloth strips were removed from the cave, and there were no traces of human beings anymore. Even the blood stains were washed away by a mountain rain.
The hunter completely disappeared from the world. His relatives and friends in the world will never see the hunter again, and his whereabouts will only become an unknown in the world.
After three days and three nights, Bai Jun finally woke up with difficulty.
Before his eyes even had time to receive information from the outside world, his stomach began to scream that he was hungry.
So hungry!
Bai Jun felt so hungry that he went crazy!
He stood up with difficulty, feeling pain everywhere in the bones of his body, as if they were broken, and he even had very little strength.
Bai Jun slowly crawled out of the cave. He thought that even if the hunter's body was eaten by wild animals, there would be some pieces of meat. He didn't mind eating people when he was extremely hungry.
But when he came outside the cave, he was stunned. Where was the body? Why didn't he see any flesh and blood?
He spit out the snake message with difficulty, sensed the surrounding creatures, and found an old tree hole.
Bai Jin hurriedly dragged his body into the small cave and swallowed three or four poor and innocent little mice to fill his stomach.
After eating enough, Bai Jun had some strength, and it seemed that the pain in his body had eased a lot.
He couldn't crawl back to the valley in this condition, and he might die on the way.
So Bai Yan chose to stay on the mountain peak near this big cave to recuperate for a while.
Never eat grass from unknown sources in the future!
Not only was it useless after eating that grass, it seemed like he had been poisoned, and he almost died.
Bai Jun was thinking, could it be that the herbal medicine was only effective on humans and not on snakes?
After thinking about it several times, he had no choice but to stop thinking and quietly recuperate and repair his body.
After Bai Jin swallowed three mice, he went into an unowned mouse hole and rested for most of the day. In the evening, his stomach began to growl again and he started eating.
He was a little strange. Normally, swallowing three mice would last at least one day of physical exertion. Why was he hungry today even before he had spent the night?
It's strange, but we still have to find ways to fill our stomachs.
Most of the mud on Bai Jun's body has fallen off. With his conspicuous white body, let alone hunting, he might be arrested.
After thinking about it, I still can only eat mice!
He carefully exited the cave, chose a small cave again and went in. A clever little mouse ran away from another hole.
Bai Jun reluctantly retreated and found another hole. This time he blocked two fat mice and had a nice midnight snack. After eating, Bai Jun was too lazy to move and rested in the hole.
After a sleepy night, Bai Jun woke up from hunger again the next morning!
This time, Bai Jun finally felt that something was wrong with him.
No matter how hungry you are, your digestion will never be so fast.
Bai Jun thought, could it be that the grass would make the snake more edible?
He could only look for mouse holes again and ask the mice on this mountain to help him fill his stomach.
On this day, Bai Jun swallowed six mice!
On the third day, I ate eight mice!
On the seventh day, I ate five mice and a little rabbit!
On the ninth day, I ate two mice and three little rabbits!
Bai Jun's injury was finally healed, and he felt that his body had fully recovered. Even in the past nine days, he had already noticed that his strength was growing little by little. His physical strength now far exceeds that before!
Even his body has grown from just over two meters to about two and a half meters tall.
Bai Jun was overjoyed. It turned out that the effect of this herb would be revealed little by little. It was not that he was transformed instantly as soon as he ate some spiritual herb, but that it needed a process to gradually achieve it.
Today, his physical strength is three times what it was before!
Don't think that even if a snake's strength triples, it's no big deal.
To put it another way, it’s scary.
Now that Bai Jun is two meters long, the death coil he erupts is equivalent to the death coil erupted by a six-meter-long python.
If a six-meter-long python wraps around and squeezes a human being, the pressure on the human body and bones will be as much as the weight of a bus pressing on him.
The Bai Jun of today is far from the Bai Jun of nine days ago.
He even felt that if the goshawk came back and had ill intentions towards him, Bai Jun would not be afraid.
No wonder the hunter valued such a magical herb so much. Bai Jun returned to his valley with great joy. On the way, he even encountered a provocative monkey who wanted to beat his teeth as a sacrifice.
After Bai Jun showed his powerful strength, he finally ended the opponent's life with his poisonous fangs.
It took three hours to get here and less than an hour to get back.
The increase in strength brings not only physical strength, but also an increase in speed, and even the hardness of the body is much stronger than before.
Bai Jun returned to his nest without any hindrance, crossed the Yixiantian Canyon, swam across the pool, and stood on the boulder beside the pool, only to realize that his nest was occupied.
It was a rather large owl that had made its home in the hole in the willow tree.
Owls are omnivorous birds and generally feed on insects, fish, and butterflies, but they often also eat some neutral, non-venomous snakes, and even venomous snakes.
Bai Jun was a little confused. After all, owls are also hawks and are the natural enemies of snakes.
Although his strength has greatly increased now, it is still species suppression.
After thinking about it, he still chose to strike first.
Taking advantage of the bright sun, Bai Jun climbed onto the thick willow tree and got closer to the owl in the cave.
Owls are generally nocturnal and sleep during the day. Even flying during the day is extremely difficult and bumpy.
So Bai Yan chose to do it during the day. Once the owl wakes up at night, with its terrifying hearing and keen flying ability, it might even overturn.
The willow tree has been growing by the lake for an unknown number of years. It has lush branches and leaves, and thick roots. It takes three or four adults to surround the trunk to hug it.
Therefore, during the few days that Bai Jun was away, many birds came to the trees.
With these birdsong, the owl would not quickly detect Bai Jun approaching it.
Bai Yan was getting closer and closer to the tree hole. He controlled the very light rhythm of his muscles and climbed, trying not to make the slightest sound.
Five meters, four meters, three meters, two meters, one meter.
Phew~
It just so happened that the weather was good at this moment, and a hot summer wind blew the countless branches and leaves on the willow trees and made a rustling sound.
Bai Yan's muscles suddenly exploded, and he shot out like a sharp arrow, biting the sleeping owl in the hole, and then injected venom into its body like crazy.
The owl woke up instantly and saw that it was a snake. It raised its sharp talons and pressed the snake's body, and then its eagle beak pecked seven inches of the white snake.
Bai Yan hurriedly twisted his body to avoid it, but the owl's terrifying hearing almost immediately made his brain make a judgment and peck the snake's body.
But fortunately, I didn't peck the seven-inch vital part.
Bai Yan suddenly exerted force on his waist, and actually flicked the owl's claws away, then wrapped around its body, and began to use the snake's special move, Death Coil.
The owl struggled to tear Bai Jun's body with its beak and claws, but found that the snake's body was extremely hard. Its sharp talons could only tear off a few snake scales, and even the flesh and blood was only a shallow layer.
Just when it was about to make a move, Bai Yan had already exerted force to tighten his body, and the terrifying pressure acted on the owl's heart. He instantly became frightened and wanted to struggle, but the snake venom also began to act, and its consciousness became increasingly unclear. , the strength is getting smaller and smaller, the heart cannot withstand the strong pressure and explodes in its body, and the flesh, flesh and bones are all paralyzed.
Bai Yan did not dare to relax his body, and he did not let go of the owl's body until half an hour later. The reason why it was wrapped around it for so long was because he was worried that some animals would feign death, and their brains would be resurrected after the snakes let go.
But this owl cannot die anymore.
Bai Jun had just been on the road for an hour and felt hungry, so he swallowed the owl.
In the past, he would never do it, because the owl is still quite big for him, and he would burst into tears if his body burst.
But now his body is much stronger and can support swallowing such a large prey!
This owl was sixty to seventy centimeters long with its wings spread out, and its body was more than ten centimeters wide. It took Bai Jun half an hour to swallow the head bird completely.
Bai Jun felt that his belly was too full, and his belly also bulged out, like a pregnant woman.
After eating, Bai Jin couldn't even sit up. He could only curl up into the hole, spread out his body, and then fell asleep watching the sunset gradually sinking in the horizon.
As the sun sets over the Western Mountains, half of the sky is dyed red by the sunset, and the rippling water in the pond reflects the blurry red sun and mountains. Regardless of morning clouds and dusk, the mountain pond is still quiet and leisurely.
…
A month later, autumn came again, willow leaves fell one after another, and Bai Jun also passed through the fifth molting period.
After this molt, Bai Jun is already three meters long.
Before molting, he was already 2.78 meters long. After molting, he has grown by 20 to 30 centimeters, which is pretty good.
Now wherever Bai Jun goes, he scares away animals.
Moreover, as he ate day and night, the fish in the pool became a little scarce.
Fortunately, his appetite has gradually returned to normal. After a winter of cultivation and the beginning of spring, when the fish in the upper reaches multiply, the number of fish in the pond should return to its previous state.
Bai Jun was really glad that the giant turtle demon had left, otherwise there wouldn't be as many species in the valley as there are now.
There are now not only more than a dozen wild deer in this valley, but also many wild foxes, weasels, hyenas, lynxes and other animals.
These animals may be Bai Jun's food in the future.
Bai Jun even drove some hares into the valley. The number of hares in the valley was not large enough. This was mainly because foxes, hyenas, and lynxes had to survive, so the number of rabbits did not grow too fast.
I believe that with Bai Jun's help, after next spring, the rabbit's terrifying reproductive ability will bring Bai Jun many surprises.
Bai Yan wanted to take advantage of the winter to eat some other prey. For example, those gray foxes that were particularly good at eating rabbits, and those hyenas that were always drooling.
Now Bai Yan is not just a local snake in the pool, but the most powerful creature in this valley with a radius of more than ten miles.
Even that wild leopard with striped skin didn't dare to make a mistake in front of Bai Jun.
Moreover, Bai Jun has already regarded this valley as his home and his territory in his heart.
If other predators entered his territory rashly, they would undoubtedly be provoking Bai Jun.
