Chapter 066: Deserted Island Snake (5)
Tao Xing went back and was separating the fresh water when he heard a rustling sound. The snake came back with a fish in its mouth and some firewood wrapped around its tail. It crawled up to him and pushed it forward carefully.
Familiar things, Tao Xing thought for a moment: "You are not provoking me, you really want to give me something, right?"
The snake nodded and said, "Yes, I am courting you."
"I misunderstood you." Tao Xing sighed and took the fish and firewood. "Thank you." Then he remembered something and took out the golden scale from his arms. "This is what you wanted to give me, right?"
The snake opened its eyes wide and stuck out its tongue.
People have put out their courtship signs, can’t they wait?
It wagged its tail excitedly and climbed up.
Tao Xing: “…”
Uh, how did it get here?
It's still a bit creepy.
Do you want to take the scales away?
Okay, I’ll give it back to you.
He held the scale out to the snake.
The snake became even more excited. It nudged its head, opened its mouth and bit the scales. Then, it rubbed Tao Xing's legs gently.
Tao Xing: “…”
He straightened his back and moved to the side.
The snake paused. Why did you refuse again?
Oh, by the way, it’s still daylight. Its reaction is strongest at night, and the same should be true for humans, right?
Okay, okay, let’s wait until dark.
The snake retreated obediently and curled up beside the fire.
Tao Xing breathed a sigh of relief, added water, cooked the fish, then fetched water, took a bath behind the fence, and then returned to the cave to rest.
The snake followed into the cave.
Tao Xing just lay down and sat up again: "You want to sleep in here too?"
He told it to come back and not go to the hill, but he didn't say to let it live with him.
But... outside, there were flickering flames, the flames were getting smaller and smaller, and gradually, a dripping sound could be heard, as if it was raining.
What's more, there are carnivorous creatures on the island. I thought this snake was very powerful, but today I saw it being chased everywhere by those monsters. I think it can't beat them, so it's safer to go into the cave.
Okay, Tao Xing took a deep breath: "You can..."
He didn't finish his words.
He watched the snake crawling towards him, its tail wrapping around his legs. The snake's head moved up, sticking to his legs, then to his abdomen and chest... Even through his clothes, he could feel the snake's smooth and cool feel.
Tao Xing was so shocked that he didn't move for a moment. He lowered his eyebrows and watched the snake head getting closer and closer, almost touching his face.
The snake's tail seemed to be exerting force and slowly tightening.
"Ah..." Tao Xing finally shuddered and curled up her legs. "Don't come over here. Get down quickly."
The snake paused again. Why was it still not working?
It’s not yet the time when the reaction will be the strongest, but it’s okay if it’s not yet that time.
But people may not think so.
The snake pondered for a moment, slowly loosened its tail, and stepped back. Okay, I'll be there in a moment.
Tao Xing patted his chest and it took him a while to calm down: "You can sleep here, but not so close to me." He pointed to the other side, "You sleep over there."
There were also a lot of fallen leaves at that location, where Tao Xing had put his backpack and other things. Now he went to take his things away, and patted the leaves to make sure there was nothing hard: "Here."
The snake obediently crawled over, coiled in the middle, holding the scale in its mouth and staring at him.
It was quite well behaved. Tao Xing went back to bed and lay down. She secretly looked at the snake many times and saw that it was always coiled up. Although its head was erected, the posture did not move, only its horns trembled. Maybe it fell asleep?
Tao Xing relaxed a little. She had originally planned to stay alert and not sleep tonight, but she started to feel sleepy for unknown reasons and it was out of control.
After a while, he fell asleep.
The snake's horns trembled more violently and the mating reaction began to appear. Heat flowed, it became restless, and its head was buzzing.
It crawled towards Tao Xing.
Tao Xing was dreaming again.
Once again I dreamed that I turned into a snake.
When he opened his eyes and saw that he had turned into a snake, he immediately realized that his consciousness was being controlled again.
No, you must be sober, you must!
He struggled violently but was unable to lift his hands and feet. Yes, he had no hands and feet now and could not use them at all.
Why don't I have arms and legs?
I am a snake. How can a snake have hands?
No, I'm not a snake, I'm a human!
He twisted his body, but the tail was tightly entangled with the other snake.
Tail, why do I have a tail?
I am a snake, of course snakes have tails.
Yes, I am a snake!
My mind is completely confused.
He also became restless, with waves of heat flowing through him, and he looked at the other snake under him.
The snake still had scales in its mouth and its eyes were as red as blood.
Tao Xing narrowed her eyes slightly and bit the neck of the snake under her.
The snake hissed and suddenly stretched out its tail.
The two tails are intertwined.
At dawn, the restlessness eased, but his consciousness seemed to be sinking in deep water again. A ray of light appeared above his head. He struggled to float to the surface. Tao Xing suddenly opened his eyes and saw that he was holding the snake tightly.
She took off her clothes again, but this time they were not folded neatly at the head of the bed, but scattered on the floor.
Tao Xing's brain exploded and he stood up in panic.
The snake in my arms was really tired today and failed to get up early. It was awakened by this movement and looked at the person next to it with a look of intimacy in its eyes.
Tao Xing looked angry and said, "Didn't I tell you not to do this again? Didn't you agree to that?"
The snake was about to come over and get close to him, but seeing his expression and tone, it didn't dare to move.
Why are you angry again? Were you dissatisfied again last night?
However, it can feel that both sides are very excited.
It leaned forward again.
"Don't come over here!" Tao Xing rubbed her swollen and painful temples and went to pick up clothes. "I think we should not live in the same cave anymore."
It was still raining outside, heavier than last night. He put on his clothes and put on his bag: "I'll leave this hole to you."
Walking out of the cave, around the fire rack and the pile of rocks, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the snake skin he had kicked away before, and an overlooked thought flashed through his mind.
When I turned around, the snake was just coming out.
He looked into the snake's eyes and said, "So this hole is yours. I'm sorry that I've been occupying your place. Now it's back to its rightful owner."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Rain beat down on the leaves in the forest. The sky was darker than the previous two days. As Tao Xing walked, he heard a rustling sound behind him.
The snake was behind, with drops of water on its scales and a look of grievance in its red eyes.
"Don't follow me." Tao Xing said, and then quickened his pace.
After twists and turns, he finally found a cave suitable for living. It was not far from the cave, on the other side of the edge of the forest. The entrance was hidden, the inside was dry, and there were no snakes or insects. There was also a stone wall extending outward, like a awning. This was even better, as he could make a fire on rainy days.
Clean up the dust, lay out the leaves and grass, and then put the thermal felt on top.
Just as he was done, he heard a hissing sound and the snake had caught up with him. He poked his head in at the door, looking pitiful, and didn't dare to come in.
"Didn't I tell you not to follow me? Why don't you understand..." Tao Xing said unhappily, and paused before he finished speaking.
He seemed to have... overlooked a problem.
The other party is an animal and can't understand human language.
He had seen the snake respond to every word he said, and out of habit he thought the snake understood.
Since... it doesn't understand, then it can't be considered as having promised itself before, let alone breaking its promise.
Thinking of this, Tao Xing felt a little guilty. Seeing that the rain was still falling outside, he sighed and said, "Come in first."
The snake's eyes lit up and it crawled in gently.
Tao Xing: “…”
Can it understand or not?
However, since it cannot understand words, its promise not to eat people is also meaningless. Since it cannot communicate with words, it seems that it is not easy to guide it.
No matter what, Tao Xing must explain the current situation to the snake. He took a deep breath and said to the snake, "No..." He pointed at his head and then at the snake's tail, making a cross gesture, "You can't control my consciousness to make me mate with you. If you keep doing this, I can't live with you."
The snake blinked, its eyes dim.
I really understood it this time.
Man refuses to be its partner.
He lowered his head, found a place to sit and did not move.
Although words could not communicate, Tao Xing could feel that it understood this time.
It was raining outside and the sky was gloomy. He didn't know what time it was. He made a fire to prepare food. In the jumping flames, he looked back at the snake coiled on the ground. Well, they were still in the same room.
What's the point of moving?
080 said: "Of course it does make sense. That is its nest. You have gone from being a son-in-law to establishing your own family."
Tao Xing: “…”
Although it was raining, he was not idle. He went to the laboratory again and caught a human-faced monster. He took it to the door lock and compared its pupils. The program displayed: "Authentication successful, Hu Yuyu, welcome."
After confirming it, he looked at it for a while. The synthesized animal was partly a hairless cat, and he couldn't pluck its hair to make a mark. So... sorry, Tao Xing scratched a mark on its ear.
On the way back, I picked up some branches and sticks and made another fence. It was getting dark and it should be night now.
When the snake saw him coming in, it raised its upper body. Tao Xing raised his hand and made a warning gesture. The snake retracted its head again, still coiled up, and slowly closed its eyes, as if it had fallen asleep.
Tao Xing packed up and went to sleep.
Having changed to a new environment and with the snake still around, he was nervous and couldn't sleep so deeply tonight.
midnight.
The snake's reaction began to become intense, its horns trembling and its eyes bloodshot.
It slowly approached Tao Xing again.
After crawling just two steps, it remembered that this person was actually unwilling to be its partner, so its movements slowed down.
But... this person smells so good.
It is because of this person that the mating period is triggered and there is no way to control it.
The snake stuck out its tongue and continued to move forward.
Tao Xing fell into a deep sleep without realizing it.
When he saw the scales on his body, he knew that his consciousness was being controlled again.
He struggled and twisted his body, feeling a sharp pain in his arms. His consciousness suddenly seemed to crack and he stopped sinking.
That was the knife he kept by his side before going to bed, with the blade facing upwards, so that if he was controlled again, he could use the pain to wake himself up.
Consciousness gradually returned, but he could not move.
At first, he thought he was a snake, but this time he did not take the initiative. He was a snake lying flat, and he could feel the snake slowly coiling around his body, and the smooth scales rubbing against each other made a squeaking sound.
Gradually he realized that he was not a snake, but a human.
The snake wrapped around his body was cold, its tail hooked around his legs, and the scales on its tail opened up and rubbed slowly against a certain part of his body.
He felt the snake's head pressed against his chest, picked up his shirt, and pulled it off over his head.
Then the snake's head moved down again and stopped at his abdomen.
With a "click", the belt was bitten open.
Tao Xing suddenly regained consciousness and opened his eyes.
The snake looked up at the noise.
Tao Xing wiped his arm and looked at it with a frown.
There was a hint of clarity in the snake's scarlet eyes. Even though the man didn't say anything, it knew that it had made him angry again.
It slowly loosened the belt buckle in its mouth, backed away, crawled back to its position, and coiled up carefully.
Tao Xing said coldly: "If you come over again, I really won't stay in the same room with you."
The snake's head drooped even lower.
Tao Xing wiped the sweat from his forehead and the blood from his arms, buckled his belt, put his shirt back on, then sat with his arms folded, not intending to sleep.
The snake curled itself up tightly.
Mating could not begin, and its reaction was not relieved and it was still unbearable. However, it did not dare to move, but only reacted strongly, causing its horns to tremble even more violently.
Tao Xing never expected that he could fall asleep while sitting.
I felt dazed and turned into a snake again.
Come again, right?
A surge of anger arose in his heart, and he moved his body, and the knife cut his arm again.
When he regained consciousness, he opened his eyes and held the snake that was already within reach: "You're going too far!"
The snake swung its tail restlessly and blinked its red eyes. Instead of lowering its head and retreating like it had just done, it wanted to move forward.
Tao Xing held the snake's head in his hands: "If you do this again, I will kick you out!"
The snake's body retreated in an extremely difficult posture.
"Host." 080 suddenly said, "Snakes have a mating period. During this period, their desire to mate will be very strong. This snake is so spiritual that its desire will be much stronger than that of ordinary snakes. If it does not have a partner during the mating period, its body will suffer irreversible damage."
Tao Xing narrowed her eyes slightly: "Hurt?"
There was a moment of silence, he frowned and fell into thought.
When the snake head retreated from his palm, Tao Xing raised his eyes, held the snake again, and said word by word: "Don't let me dream again, I know you can transform into a human form."
The snake raised its eyes and looked at him blankly.
"Become a human." Tao Xing's voice was low.
