    Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little dazed. When I came back to my senses, I saw that Xiao Ding was already talking to my master, saying something to the effect of being helpless and sorry, but the little snake seemed to be fine.  The same thing happened before, he leaned on Xiao Ding's shoulder persistently, his eyes full of innocence.

    Seeing that I had come to my senses, Xiao Ding smiled at me and said, "Sanwa'er, are you almost done with washing? I've also prepared the dishes. Let's go eat."

    When I mentioned eating, I began to feel extremely hungry, and the little snake became even more excited. It was pretending to be fine and innocent before, but now it kept rubbing Xiao Ding's cheek. Xiao Ding was embarrassed.  He glanced at Master and me, and said helplessly: "Okay, okay, I'll allow you to go to my place for fun today. You can control yourself and don't burn the house down to me."

    The little snake seemed very happy.

    And at that moment, I suddenly felt that Xiao Ding’s life here seemed not so lonely, and judging others by myself seemed to make my vision a bit narrow.

    Soon, Master and I changed our clothes and followed Xiao Ding out of the woods.

    On the way, Xiao Ding still talked a lot. He kept telling us about the 'Boring Grandpa', saying that he was a kind snake, the ancestor who was responsible for protecting Xiao Teng during this period of time, and he was the most boring ancestor.  , if not necessary, you can lie down in one place and remain motionless for many years.

    Actually, I’m curious about what these snakes eat on a daily basis?

    But these snakes should all be at the ‘Snake Spirit’ level, right?  In short, every ancestor I saw should be more powerful than the snake spirit I had seen before in that bamboo forest and the Tomb of the Hungry Ghost. And since that snake could lie motionless for so long as if in hibernation, these ancestors should be  Pretty much right?

    When you reach the realm of the snake spirit, you may already be in a realm where 'breathing' is the main thing, and food does not seem so important.

    Thinking of this, I feel a little ashamed. If Master and I were dedicated to pure cultivation, we might still be able to reach the state of Praxia and Bigu in our lifetimes.

    But we seem to have taken another path, which is the path of rebirth that focuses on skills. Many hermits in circles believe that this is a side path and has deviated from the main path of the cultivator.

    ?????????????? Actually, that’s not the case. Qingxiu means not to be affected by cause and effect, not to be stained by the world of mortals, but to strengthen the body and practice Qi as the most important thing.

    ??And joining the world is to accumulate merit and bear moral responsibility, which is also a right path, just like Master Hongren suddenly attained the right path one day!

    I feel ashamed just thinking that although snakes are also very spiritual beings, it is not easy to practice compared to humans. Especially for snakes, they have to go through many obstacles and have to relax at all times. While I am running around, I can't even guarantee the morning and evening classes.  Okay, are you too lazy?

    In the midst of our random thoughts, we had already reached the wooden house in the Holy Land. Before we even entered the house, I could already feel the fragrant aroma and couldn't help but swallow a sip of saliva——

    Dividing line——

    I have to say that this day in the Holy Land was very beautiful, and in such a barren mountain, I didn’t expect to be able to taste the ultimate in other people’s delicious food.

    Just like this pot of soup, made by the blind fish and the unknown fungus, it is extremely delicious. Just one mouthful of the soup makes people feel happy after drinking it. Master commented that food full of spiritual energy can be pure and simple.  When done, it can arouse people's joy.

    It sounds like it’s extremely profound, but I don’t care about these theories. I think as long as it tastes good, it’s what I want.

    I had long been curious about the blind fish, so after finishing a bowl of soup, I couldn’t wait to put a chopstick of the blind fish in the bowl, took a sip, and the fish meat slid into my mouth without any thorns and a little fishy smell.  No, on the contrary, it was indescribably delicious, with a faint hint of sweetness in the middle. And without chewing, it felt as if the tender fish meat had turned into water and slid into the throat.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????…

    Just like Ruxue in the past, her cooking skills were praised by many people. Xiaoding's cooking was so rough, but Ruxue couldn't make such delicious food with her skillful hands.

    Therefore, the taste of the ingredients itself is actually the most important to a certain extent, but as the master who kept talking while eating aside said, in this world, full of spiritual energy, the taste itself has arrived.  The best ingredients are becoming increasingly rare and even impossible to find. I am afraid that this kind of taste will take several lifetimes to cultivate.

    Yes, how many generations?Naturally, I cherish this meal that I only had the blessing of cultivating. Besides, in addition to the blind fish, the mushrooms and the blind shrimp are also extremely delicious.

    Because of these precious ingredients, the food and I finally ate even a large pot of dried mushrooms and a large plate of bacon cooked by Xiao Ding.

    Among them, the little snake is not idle either. Xiao Ding will feed it something to eat from time to time, including blind fish, blind shrimp and fungi, a small amount, and other things, such as bacon and so on.  , no matter how eager the little snake was, Xiao Ding would never give it to him.

    In addition to these, I saw some processed things that Xiao Ding was feeding the little snake. I couldn’t tell what they were for a while, but the master looked at them with a twitching look on his face, feeling quite distressed.

    It wasn't until later that I found out that what Xiaoding fed the little snake was actually something that can now be called heavenly materials and earthly treasures. He just ground it into powder and added some dried meat powder that the little snake loved to eat.  After the eggs are mixed, it looks like this.

    Well, in the new era, in addition to dog food and cat food, there is also Xiaoding brand special snake food, but those dog food and cat food are really weak compared to Xiaoding brand snake food.

    After the meal, the master couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked Xiao Ding: "Is Xiao Teng a snake?"

    Xiao Ding said very directly: "Yes, Xiao Teng is a tan snake, and he is also the sacred snake that we have guarded for generations. We long for it to become a dragon under the protection of our Snake Sect lineage! This can be considered  The greatest wish of our Snake Sect lineage."

    Master and I had some guesses, but after we actually found out, we were shocked and speechless. After all, there is a gap between guesses and real confirmations.

    So, during a later chat, I couldn't help but ask Master: "Master, are all the records in the Classic of Mountains and Seas true?"

    "Is at least part of it true? I don't know this either. You know, China has a mysterious history that cannot be recognized. It started from the legendary Bactria, and even more so in the Yanhuang era before Bactria.  It cannot be tested, but so many classics have been passed down. In my Taoist records, it was a vigorous era of great witches and all kinds of magic emerged. In fact, if the tan snake really existed, I would be excited in my heart. Because, I have already  I began to yearn for that vigorous era." This is how Master answered me.

    And why don’t I yearn for that era?

    The most inseparable thing in life is time. In this isolated but extremely beautiful holy place, time seems to pass faster. When the dreamlike green fluorescent fungi in this holy place light up again, so does it.  It's time for Master and I to leave.

    "I'll send you off." Xiao Ding's eyes showed reluctance, but his words were simple. He was holding a small cloth bag in his hand, which contained the fourteen nails that Master and I pulled out.

    Master said that waste can also be used. These fourteen nails will bring some safety to me and him.

    "Yeah." Master was silent, and I just said a simple yes.

    Farewell will always come, and those of us who often have to face farewell have already known how to deal with it at this moment.

    There was some silence along the way. Xiaoding took us through another secret passage. This secret passage is also one of the underground passages. However, it is not comparable to the secret passage where the ancestors stayed, but inside, there are still  With all kinds of weird snakes, it is worthy of being the Holy Land of Snake Gate.

    But these snakes are not spiritual, so when Xiao Ding took us along this secret path, he was also careful. He kept his bamboo flute in his hand, and also prepared some medicinal powder, which he sprinkled from time to time. He probably used snakes.  Some ways to repel snakes from doors.

    This time we also walked in the secret passage for more than two hours. When we walked out of the secret passage and saw a crescent moon in the sky, we had no idea where we were on this mountain.

    "After a long journey, I will see you again. I hope to see Grandpa Jiang and the three children again." Xiao Ding stood under the moonlight, his elegant appearance was still like a handsome young man, but the sadness in his eyes seemed a bit thicker.

    "It will definitely happen." This time it was not me who answered, but Master. He was so sure. Is this certainty what he said was the fate of the great era?  who knows?

    Xiao Ding did not answer, but took out a roll of paper from his arms, handed it to the master, and said: "Grandpa Jiang, map! And these nails, I will find some snakes and bring them to any place randomly."  local.”

    "Yeah." Master took the map, as if he didn't want to face the sadness of parting, and turned around and left with me.

    At some point, you don’t need to say thank you, all you need is to keep a friendship in your heart!

    ?But after taking only two steps, the master suddenly turned back and said to Xiao Ding who had not left under the moonlight: "We will really meet again, soon!"
