Traces of Senior
This lake is very big, and it is very different from the puddle they stayed at before. Just looking at it casually, you can hardly see the boundary clearly. After his transformation, Su Ce’s own eyesight has improved. It’s not just a little bit better than before.
But no matter what, he had to go around the lake and search in order.
Naturally, Tan Tu was by his side all the time. At Su Ce’s insistence, he did not carry Su Ce on his back, but walked slowly around with him.
Su Ce kept paying attention to the ground, trying to see if he could find anything on the ground.
If he remembered correctly, when he was dazed in the hot spring, he seemed to have heard his senior say that he had to go out and get something to eat… In this case, he should at least have put on clothes, so he wouldn’t look like him that was only wearing a bath towel.
But speaking of it, he drowned when he came over and was rescued by Tan Tu. He must have been in a coma for a while… If senior came over, the time difference wouldn’t be too long – he should be able to find him.
Thinking of this, Su Ce felt a little funny. He still remembered that when he first came here, he thought he had been caught and taken into a laboratory, and wanted to look for the senior who might have been captured as well. But now it seems that he was just sucked in by the hot spring.
Senior probably hasn’t come yet…but I still can’t feel at ease if I don’t search again.
Although he had been worried before, subconsciously, he still felt that senior would not be lucky like him. The reason why I always think about it and feel anxious is probably because I miss the world and people of the past.
After all, that was the world he had lived in for more than twenty years… Even if he met Tan Tu and was with Tan Tu, he didn’t regretted it, but it was impossible to say that he could abandon the past without any nostalgia.
Although the past is not a past worth remembering.
Along the lakeshore, Tan Tu carefully held Su Ce’s hand. Although there is no aura of beasts like deep-water giant crocodiles in this lake, there is no guarantee that there will not be any other aquatic beasts. It would be bad if it suddenly jumped out and hurt Ah Ce.
In fact, his worries were not unfounded, because before he walked more than ten meters, a small gray snake, only more than a foot long, shot out of the water Tan Tu quickly pinched it with quick hands, and turned it into minced meat.
It’s quite thrilling… This is a highly venomous snake.
Tan Tu became more careful and asked Su Ce to walk on the other side of him. He did not forget to remind him, “Ah Ce, be careful.”
Su Ce was also startled just now. The speed of the snake was too fast. He knew that he had a sense of crisis but his body reaction could not keep up. He could not help but hold Tan Tu’s hand tightly.
That snake looks like it can fly…
Tan Tu saw Su Ce’s surprise and explained, “This is called the gray thread snake. It is a small snake that floats on the surface of the lake and hides in the duckweed. It is difficult to detect because the color is dim and close to the water color, but the ejection force is very high. If we are not careful, it can penetrate the skin.” He paused, “And the toxicity is very strong. When it penetrates the muscle, the toxin will be injected into the body, and you may die within a few steps.”
He thought for a while and then said, “Of course, if you happen to be carrying medicine made by witch doctors like Ka Mai, you can apply it immediately and there is half a chance that you can survive.”
It sounds scary…
Su Ce frowned, “Is it very fast?” It was as if only a shadow passed by.
Tan Tu thought Su Ce was scared, and quickly comforted him, “Ah Ce, don’t worry, no matter how many come out, I can catch them all, and I will never let them hurt you!”
Then, as if to confirm what he said, several more gray shadows suddenly shot out from the lake. Tan Tu let go of Su Ce’s hand, opened his arms wide towards the left and right, and caught them all in two strokes.
By the way, he waved it in front of Su Ce as if offering a treasure, turned his head and said, ” Do you see?”
Su Ce was amused by his expression, so he said, “Yes, Tan Tu, you did a good job.”
Tan Tu happily crushed up these gray thread snakes and threw them away. He wiped the blood on his body before holding Su Ce again.
Su Ce did not dislike him this time, nor did he order him to wash his hands… What if the gray thread snake comes out and attacks again while washing his hands? Tan Tu may not be able to take care of them at that time.
While walking and searching, the two of them said nothing. Su Ce searched carefully among the weeds, but could not find any clues.
Tan Tu felt a little sour when he saw Su Ce’s serious expression.
Ah Ce seems to like his brother very much…
Tan Tu decided to break the silent atmosphere between the two.
So he opened his mouth and said, “…Ah Ce.”
Su Ce raised his eyes, “Huh?”
Tan Tu said, “Are you…very interested in snakes?” As soon as he finished speaking, he felt something was wrong.
This topic is too poorly chosen…
Su Ce was stunned for a moment, then saw Tan Tu’s somewhat embarrassed look and reacted.
Tan Tu looks like a dog that has lost its meat and bones… Maybe there are some similarities in personality.
Sure enough, he still feels left out…
Su Ce nodded, “Yes, I have never seen the gray thread snake just now before.”
Ah Ce still lacks common sense… But it’s not surprising that a female who rarely goes out and is not a witch doctor can’t recognize many other creatures.
Tan Tu also nodded secretly, at least the topic was brought up.
He then added, “The gray thread snake is actually not the most powerful. There are many weirder snakes in the forest, all with their own characteristics…”
Before, it was just to follow Tan Tu’s words and make him happy, but now that he really started to introduce it, Su Ce’s interest was also aroused.
Tan Tu is usually very active…but his personality is a little dull.
But it’s okay, it’s very cute.
As he continued walking forward, looking for traces of his senior, and listening to Tan Tu introduce the various snakes in the forest, Su Ce probably knew that there were almost no non-venomous snakes in the world.
That’s right, this world is a world where the strong eat the weak, which is closer to primitive society. The animals are many times more powerful than those on the earth. What’s more, there are races like orcs that can combine the advantages of both humans and beasts. If it is just a non-venomous snake, even if it is a non-venomous snake, no matter how strong you are, you probably won’t have much room to survive.
Su Ce suddenly thought of the orcs from the snake tribe.
For example, Ah Er Sen in the tribe, I heard Tan Tu say that his beast shape is a giant python… Pythons on the earth are all non-venomous, and it is said that venomous snakes evolved from non-venomous snakes, so a giant python orc like Ah Er Sen, in this world of orcs, is his prototype poisonous…
Thinking of this, Su Ce asked, “Tan Tu, is Ah Er Sen poisonous? His prototype is also a snake.”
Tan Tu stayed for a moment, feeling sour again.
Well, when Su Ce first came here, he had made a big mistake in front of Su Ce because Ah Er Sen was the only male among the young orcs who could compete with him. This was later alleviated by marrying Su Ce.
But now, even if he knew that Su Ce would not run away with Ah Er Sen, he would still be jealous.
His partner asked about another male in front of him… Tan Tu was no less jealous than other males. Especially after experiencing Ah Ce’s gentleness, he fell in love with him more every day.
But after so long, Tan Tu has made some progress. He knew that his worries were unnecessary, so he could barely suppress them, and turned to Su Ce and said, “Ah Er Sen is poisonous, and among all the snakes, the poison is the most powerful one.” After a while, he added reluctantly, “Even if I am bitten by him, I will die easily… I will die several times faster than if I were bitten by a gray thread snake.”
Su Ce was a little surprised. This Ah Er Sen is really powerful…
With his curiosity satisfied, he stopped asking further. Tan Tu was happy that Ah Er Sen had been forgotten by Su Ce, so he happily protected him and continued to search.
If breaking the silence resulted in Ah Ce’s interest in other males, then it’s better not to break it… That’s what Tan Tu thinks.
The lake was too big, and there was still a lot of searching to do. It took them until evening to complete the walk slowly, with a quick stop for lunch.
Finally, it got a little dark. Su Ce returned to the original spot around the lake and took a breath.
Then he stood up and beat his shoulders.
It’s really tiring… it’s too exhausting.
However, it’s great that there are no traces of senior.
Senior didn’t come.
Senior is still living peacefully in another world.
Even if I miss him occasionally, senior will definitely live a good life.
Thinking of this, Su Ce relaxed completely.
The big stone in his heart fell to the ground, and he was sincerely grateful for the current result.
Next, it’s time to go back…
Su Ce suddenly felt dizzy.
I felt dizzy and my abdomen suddenly felt cramped.
…What on earth is going on?
Su Ce saw Tan Tu’s anxious look, but he could no longer say a word.
