Chapter 8: Song Keling almost couldn't breathe when she came back! ...
In fact, there were some regrets. Song Keling originally wanted to take a few photos of Qianqian with a camera, but Qianqian was frightened by the desk lamp at that time. She thought that the flash would scare the little snake more, so she gave up.
There isn't even a decent photo now.
However, you can use your mobile phone to record the video.
During her recovery period, she recorded several videos for Qianqian, and everything went smoothly.
Although the little white snake was on the ground, it did not slip away immediately.
Song Keling then took out her cell phone and recorded a video of herself and the little snake together.
Only a dozen seconds.
The little white snake looked confused in the camera, with its white scales shining. Its upper body was slightly erected, and under its delicate horns and scales, its beautiful red vertical pupils showed a simple and cute look in the camera.
Song Keling replayed the video and laughed.
But the smile gradually faded.
Finally, she sighed and put away her phone, looking at the pure white and beautiful little snake reluctantly. But no matter how reluctant she was, all good things must come to an end.
Song Keling used a snake hook to create some noise in the grass. The little snake was frightened and turned its head, slowly moved away, and then disappeared into the grass.
After standing there for half a minute, Song Keling suddenly looked forward and shouted, "Qianqian!"
"Qianqian!"
After walking a few steps, the way was blocked. There were wild grasses in front of me, and the view was lush and green.
The world is so big, how can we find the little white snake?
Song Keling stood there for a long time before she sorted out her messy and lost mood and turned to leave.
It was already dark when we took the cable car down the mountain.
Song Keling did not stay in Xuetai, but bought a red-eye flight back to Xincheng.
There was no need to bring the little snake with her. Song Keling raised her hands to cooperate with the staff's inspection. After passing the inspection, she took the backpack from the security conveyor belt.
The plane arrived in Xincheng at three o'clock in the morning.
Xincheng is an economically developed inland city, a famous city that never sleeps. The street lights on both sides of the wide streets will not be turned off even at 3:00 a.m.
The last time Song Keling came back was around four or five o'clock.
At that time, she was full of anxiety and wished she could fly back to school immediately.
Today was different. She was like a speechless doll, sitting silently in the back seat of the taxi looking out the window.
After a long silence, she took out her cell phone again.
The phone's battery is low and the interface remains on a certain frame of the video.
It was three o'clock in the morning and the light in the taxi was dim, but the picture on the phone was a bright sunny day. She was in the same frame with the beautiful little snake, surrounded by lush green plants, full of hope, and she also raised her hand to make a "V" sign, smiling all the time.
There is no sense of difference at all.
Really not?
Song Keling didn't look closely at her slightly red eyes. She turned off her phone and looked out the window again.
Song Keling thought to herself, it turns out that people shouldn’t keep pets easily.
The separation was too painful.
More than half an hour later, the taxi arrived at the north gate of the school.
It’s not even four o’clock.
If she knocks on the door at this time, the dormitory manager will kill her.
So Song Keling didn't go back to the dormitory, but went directly to the laboratory with her bag. She stayed in the laboratory for several hours without washing up, and then went to the teaching building to attend class wearing her climbing clothes.
I didn't sleep all night, but I'm very awake, which is perfect for working non-stop.
During lunch, Xu Xinlei finally found an opportunity to talk to Song Keling. She was shocked and said, "Keling, my God, why did you come back so late at night? Look at your dark circles and your condition. How can you still attend classes? Go back to the dormitory and catch up on some sleep!"
"Not sleepy."
"Not sleepy yet." Xu Xinlei raised her hand and grabbed the air next to Song Keling's face.
Song Keling looked up at her roommate, but she didn't show any confusion at all.
Xu Xinlei stretched out her hand to show her her empty palm and said, "See? These are all souls that have escaped from you. Go back to sleep quickly, or your genius soul will be completely shattered!"
Song Keling: “…”
"Did you release the snake?"
Song Keling lowered her eyes and responded softly.
Xu Xinlei said, "That's it. Send the Buddha to the west, save the snake to the bottom. Saving a snake's life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. You have even achieved the right result, why are you still studying for credits? Go back to sleep after eating."
Song Keling's mind was confused for a moment by her words, but she still responded with an "oh" after a while.
Song Keling returned to the dormitory.
Just a quick shower before bed.
She took off her dirty clothes and pants and put on her pajamas.
The bathroom door slammed shut.
It's quite a big commotion.
Song Keling took off her jeans and casually threw them on the foam mat. Something visibly moved in the loose layers of rolled-up trouser legs, but after a while, it became still again.
Song Keling finished washing and went to bed.
It's very bright.
She pulled up all the curtains, lay down, covered herself with the quilt from head to toe, closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
At this moment, the phone beside the pillow vibrated.
Song Keling opened her eyes, afraid that her senior sister or tutor would call her, so she took out her cell phone to look at it.
The light from the phone screen was a bit dazzling, and it quickly adaptively lowered the brightness. It was senior Su Yili.
Senior Su Yili: [Keling, I heard you're back from the school?]
Song Keling didn't really want to type, so she pressed the voice button and responded with a "hmm".
Soon the other party made a video call.
Song Keling sighed softly, stood up and opened the curtains to let the light in, then sat against the wall and connected the video.
Su Yili was from the music department, and her voice was as clear and sweet as an oriole. "Keling, did you send the little snake back?"
Song Keling: "Yeah."
"Hmm? So you are..."
"dormitory."
Su Yili immediately said: "I'll go find you?"
Song Keling said, "But I came back from work late last night. I'm a little tired and want to catch up on some sleep."
"I won't disturb you." After saying that, Su Yili herself felt a little strange, and then changed the subject and said with a smile: "Just kidding, I have something to do outside now, so you should go to bed quickly, and we'll see you tonight?"
Song Keling thought of the date last night and said apologetically, "Sorry, senior, I canceled it last night."
"It's okay. Didn't I say I forgave you before?" Su Yili said, smiling beautifully again, her voice softening. "Or are you going to compensate me in some other way?"
Su Yili is very beautiful. She is the kind of girl who is good-looking and knows how to dress. She comes from a wealthy family, so she is very good at dealing with interpersonal relationships. She has a good personality and is very considerate and thoughtful.
Song Keling knew her sexual orientation very early, but had never been in a relationship.
When others asked her if senior Su Yili was her ideal type, she looked at him hesitantly and did not shake her head.
She felt that Senior Sister Su would be the type of girl that all Ts, no, all lesbians would like. She could be salty or sweet, could be a queen or act coquettishly, and could also provide people with enough emotional value.
In the past, upon hearing this, Song Keling might have asked, "What compensation do you want, Senior Sister?" to continue the conversation, but now, she simply said, "Can we talk about it after I wake up?"
"Yeah, okay." Su Yili blinked and said immediately, "Go to bed quickly. Do you need me to be your alarm clock?"
Song Keling couldn't help but curl her lips, "No need, contact senior sister when you wake up."
"It's a deal."
"Um."
After hanging up the video, Song Keling's smile disappeared, she drew the curtains, and fell into a deep sleep.
But the sleep quality is terrible.
Her eyes kept rolling and she had one nightmare after another.
The plot in the dream is bizarre.
She dreamed that she had just released Qianqian, and Qianqian encountered all kinds of dangers.
Sometimes it hit its head against a rock and was bleeding, sometimes it was chased by a giant toad and was covered in scars, and sometimes it was swallowed by an adult Eye King and only a thin tail was left.
There is an even more outrageous drama. After they parted, Qianqian followed her all the way down the mountain, but because she was too beautiful, she was captured by snake dealers on the way.
After finally escaping from the snake dealer, his tail was crushed by the passing traffic after he went out.
It has gone through countless hardships and traveled thousands of mountains and rivers...
The dormitory door rang.
Song Keling got out of bed feeling very depressed and heavy-hearted, and went to open the door. As soon as she opened it, she saw a pretty little girl standing outside. Her pupils were blood red with a vertical line, which looked very weird.
The next moment, the little girl picked up a leg that was crushed and bleeding, and said softly, "It's all your fault. You saved me, and then you left me alone."
Song Keling woke up from the nightmare gasping for breath!
Her eyes were wide open, sweat covered her forehead, and she was gasping for breath. She finally realized that what she had just seen was just her strange nightmare.
She raised her hand and patted her chest, trying to calm the palpitations caused by the nightmare.
I want to get up and drink some water.
As a result, when she turned around, she saw a white forehead with diagonal scales and a pair of red vertical pupils. It was so close, right in front of her. At that moment, Song Keling almost couldn't breathe!
I finally understand why Xu Xian was scared to death.
This was just a small snake as thick as an index finger. When Xu Xian opened the bed curtain, he saw a giant python as thick as a bucket rolling around.
It would be strange if that scene wasn't terrifying.
So are you still dreaming?
A dream within a dream?
Looking at the little white snake in front of her, tilting its head slightly as if in doubt, Song Keling took a deep breath, swallowed her dry throat, and suppressed the pounding of her heart. "Qian, Qianqian?"
The little snake stuck out its long black tongue, as if responding happily.
This must still be a dream.
Song Keling sat up quietly, trying to stay as far away from the snake as possible, and then reached for her cell phone.
The time is clear.
At 5:16:38, the last class was over.
Song Keling lowered her head and held her forehead, her hands covered in cold sweat. This was very wrong, and she felt her heart beating violently again.
She reached out and pulled open the curtains!
In an instant, orange-yellow light filled the room.
At the same time, the little snake that had been lying motionless beside the bed was frightened and immediately crouched down. Its white scales were dyed with the golden color of the sunset. It curled up into a ball and was about to crawl under the quilt.
Seeing this, Song Keling was instinctively startled and immediately jumped out of bed!
But she forgot that the bed was on the upper bunk, and the next moment, there was a loud "bang", which hurt so much that she immediately squatted down, covered her head and rubbed it hard.
Dreams should not be painful.
Song Keling could no longer deceive herself into thinking she was dreaming. She soon realized something. She saw something moving in her peripheral vision. She slowly raised her eyes and saw Qianqian, who had given up the idea of getting into bed at some point and was moving towards her.
That moment.
Song Keling couldn't explain the shock and confusion in her heart.
But because of the curtains, she could clearly see the little white snake that she had released on the platform.
The vertical pupils were illuminated by the setting sun, and the white vertical scales on the body, like scales, were also reflecting the flowing light, as was the tip of the tail that was obediently tucked away.
Perhaps noticing Song Keling's gaze, the little snake slightly raised its tail.
Revealing the almost invisible stitching underneath.
Song Keling fell completely silent.
She didn't look at Qianqian who appeared out of nowhere, but got out of bed and washed up.
Cool water hits my face.
Song Keling looked up at her wet self and wiped herself dry with a towel.
Then he walked out and looked at his bed.
The little snake was still there, having swam to the edge of the bed.
It has a very small body, with two horn scales on its red eyes standing upright cutely. When it looks over, its round head is slightly tilted, and it seems a little confused and a little angry.
No, that's too weird.
How could she even imagine the emotions that appeared in the snake?
It must be an illusion.
Just as Song Keling was thinking this, she heard her roommate opening the door. Her eyes lit up slightly, and she immediately turned around and shouted, "Xu Xinlei!"
Xu Xinlei was taking off her shoes when she heard Song Keling's uneasy voice. She was so scared that she didn't even take off her shoes and immediately ran to Song Keling's room.
The door opened and the two almost bumped into each other.
Song Keling didn't care. She pulled Xu Xinlei over and brought her to her bed. She pointed at the little white snake on the bed and asked, "Did you see anything?"
Xu Xinlei looked at it and stepped back in fear, even breaking free from Song Keling's hand. "Keling, didn't you say you'd take the snake to the school and release it?"
Make sure Xu Xinlei can see it too.
Song Keling was silent for a moment, then she looked into her roommate's eyes and asked calmly, "We had lunch together today. Were there any mushrooms in the dishes?"
Certain uncooked poisonous mushrooms can cause hallucinations.
Xu Xinlei immediately said: "Of course not!"
She looked at Song Keling curiously, then looked at the little white snake with its slender body coiled up on the bed.
Seeing the little snake lower its body to come over, even though it was far enough away, she still got goosebumps all over her body. She took two steps back, hid behind Song Keling, grabbed the corner of her clothes, and said tremblingly, "Keling, hurry up and put it back in the box! It's very scary!!"
Song Keling pursed her lips and looked at the little snake beside the bed.
Qianqian tilted her head and spat out a thin black tongue.
It collected information, but still couldn't understand the emotions of the human in front of it, so it hooked up the last bit of its thin tail and coiled it under its body obediently.
Song Keling looked at it thoughtfully, and asked someone softly, "So how did you get back...?"
If the little snake is real here, then does that mean the memory of going up the mountain to release it is fake?
However, the release videos are still there.
Or, after she released Qianqian and recorded the video, her second personality appeared and brought the snake back?
Song Keling looked at the little white snake coiled up beautifully and neatly, spitting out its tongue from time to time. It was neither aggressive nor angry, looking pure and innocent.
After a moment of silence, he sighed.
Forget it, let me think about it later.
She took out the things she bought from the reptile store and hid them under the bed, and at least relocated the snake.
Qianqian swam up and down excitedly in the breeding box, which was several times larger than the previous one.
There's a beautiful hide in the corner of the breeding box, half of the bottom is covered with a heating blanket, and the edges are decorated with dead wood and moss...
Song Keling didn't look at it, but rummaged through the backpack she brought back from the school.
The backpack zipper is tightly closed, so it's impossible to get out.
etc.
Song Keling suddenly woke up. She had just returned by plane.
If the second personality put the snake in the bag, how could it possibly get through airport security?
