The firelight jumped a few times, and Jiang Yan's pupil eyes shook and flashed a smile.

He chuckled as he saw real confusion in the serpent's cold eyes.

The beast, which is like a mountain and gives people urgent fear, is curious about unknown things, and the emotions close to people are revealed from the eyes of such a pair of beasts.

Jiang Yan said in a good temper, "Put me down, I will put a bowl for you to taste, this is the way humans cook."

After a while, his feet hit the ground and there was a real feeling of trampling.

Jiang Yan poured out a second portion of bone broth from the pot, and picked up the largest piece of pork trotter, almost full of mushrooms.

With his arm raised in the bowl, he looked up at the python. "Taste it?"

The snake head bent down and coldly stared at the bowl held aloft by Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan laughed and was about to lower his arms when the python spat out the snake letter, licked the bone soup, and then rolled up the whole bowl.

Jiang Yan exclaimed: "Don't eat the bowl too."

The snake letter rolling the pottery bowl paused, and Jiang Yan sat on the SLATE and clapped his palms together: "Give it to me."

When the bowl fell back into Jiang Yan's hands, his smile deepened. He picked up a large piece of pork trotter with chopsticks made of sticks and held it up, indicating that the python should eat at a lower Angle.

The pig's feet soon disappear, and the python eats this meat like a stuffed tooth, swallowing it easily.

Jiang Yan simply grabbed the mushroom, palm upward: "Mushroom, want to taste it?"

The mushroom in one hand also disappeared quickly, and the python swallowed the mushroom quickly.

Jiang Yan pressed down his lips and said, "The pig's feet are soft and rotten, the taste is very good, it melts in the mouth, you swallow it like this... You may not be able to taste it."

At this time, the python reached out and tried the pig bone soup in the bowl. Jiang Yan looked at it silently, but smiled in silence.

The cold wind constantly blows the entrance of the cave, the cold is involved, but Jiang Yan is covered with warmth.

At this moment, his mood is indescribably relaxed, and it is the first time that he feels truly comfortable after coming to the alien jungle.

Usually do things always take into account Python, even if you fall asleep at night, you need to hold a cautious attitude,

It was at this moment that he discovered that the Python was not ignorant of everything, that it could not only occasionally read a man's emotions and understand his meaning, but also get along with him.

Feeding a giant python was an image Jiang Yan had never imagined.

"Are you going to eat more?" he asked. We didn't cook much pork bone soup tonight, but we can prepare more tomorrow night."

According to the python's appetite, his small pot boiled dozens of portions are not enough for it to eat, but Jiang Yan still asked softly, as if he had a friend around him who could talk to each other.

He has not communicated with others for a long time, and it is inevitable that he is lonely.

Of course, the python did not eat, curled up languidly, the animal's eyes opened, and turned slightly with the Jiangyan of concentrating on packing things.

After packing up the utensils, Jiang Yan burned a pot of hot water.

Water vapor transpiration, Jiang Yan tried the temperature, but also quite satisfied.

He had not taken a hot bath since he came to the jungle, and it was cold outside the cave. It would be much more comfortable to rub himself with hot water and sleep again.

Rustling off his hoodie, he picked up the hot water and rubbed it over himself. After a while, did not resist to turn his head, caught a glimpse of the snakes' eyes half closed, and then continued to focus on the bath.

Half an hour later, Jiang Yan, his hands and feet warm wrapped in deer skin, lay in the stone bed, washed the hot water, and the fire was burning next to him. His handsome white face appeared very rosy, and his eyes as clear as deer reflected two bright and jumping flames.

He stretched his legs and let out a sigh.

"I wish I had a hide."

A deer skin through the autumn is too reluctantly, if there is a heavy mattress, can greatly resist the cold, it is not clear here in winter compared with the modern winter, what kind of cold?

Jiang Yan thought a lot, his mind flashed one piecemeal idea after another, and he fell asleep.

* * * * * *

The autumn night was like water, and the giant python lying on the other side had movement.

Perhaps attracted by the warmth of the burning flame, or not forgetting the soft warmth of Jiang Yan, it approached the stone bed, silently looked at the little person who curled up into a ball, and wrapped it over.

In the dream, Jiang Yan seemed to be drowning, bound from head to toe, with an overwhelming sense of smoothness. The harder he struggled, the more he had to open his eyes from the strangulation.

The snake tail wrapped around him was not wrapped from the waist down as usual, but wrapped around his shoulders, and the clothing and deerskin were only thin in comparison with the snake scales attached to them, making them vulnerable.

The presence of the snake tail is too strong, and Jiang Yan can clearly feel the long dark dark tail sliding close to him, leaving a wet and slightly sticky smell.

He is not fully conscious, with a little ignorant, want to discuss with the python to let it loose.

Words did not export, Jiang Yan's mind blank, instantly meng.

He felt as if he were on fire, and even felt himself being scratched by scales.

Jiang Yan's eyelids fluttered.

"... !"

The king of the jungle is haunting himself...

He could not look at the sliding tail of the snake, the scales that glinted with thin light, and the ones that opened.

He shouted, "Let me go!"

But this time is not like the last time after the voice was released by the python, the cold snake letter son even bullied his cheek.

Jiang Yan's knees sank, his legs were pressed by the snake tail, and he could not move.

When he was released by the python, he quickly jumped up from the stone bed. The stone bed was so slippery that even the skin of the deer became slippery. He ran away without looking back.

* * * * *

Jiang Yan did not run out of the cave, python did not let him go out at this time, Jiang Yan is unable to walk out of the hole.

The python was so heavy that it gave him pain and numbness, and the feeling of being run over.

He bit his lip, his face turned white, and he didn't know if Python was in love or something...

This is not the first time, it has already passed the animal hair/love/breeding season, how can...

Jiang Yan frowns and raises his forehead.

He also belatedly realized that the python was not really trying to eat itself as food, but eating itself in another form.

* * * * * *

The sky is not clear, Jiang Yan in any case refused to go back to sleep on the stone bed.

Yu Guang always could not help but quietly spy the direction of the python, afraid that the tail while he was not careful and he will wrap around the past.

He dozed against the stone wall in the corner, his elbows half bent, his eyes drooping, not asleep.

Really can not hold up, but also keep the energy to close your eyes, a little wind and grass, then hurriedly open your eyes, catch a glimpse of the python disc in the inside there is no movement, this is at ease.

Morning color gray, Jiang Yan with cooking utensils went to the stream early.

The vegetation around the mountains was covered with late autumn frost, a rolling white, hand into the stream, fingertips hit the biting cold.

Jiang Yan shivered, hastily washed the pot and bowl, filled with water, rushed back to the cave fire, first hot water, by the way around the fire to warm.

The python shows no sign of opening its eyes, languidly, and the colder the climate, the later it leaves its nest.

* * * *

Around the quiet if silent, Jiang Yan immersed himself in doing the work on hand, planning to take advantage of the cloudy sky, go out to collect a little fruit.

Several cold winds attacked, he stood at the mouth of the hole tightly covered his mouth and nose and sneezed for a few consecutive years. Subconsciously, he quietly turned sideways, and the giant python did uncover the shallow animal pupil and looked at him.

After last night's incident, Jiang Yan deliberately avoided python,

He wrapped the buckskin tightly and shivered a few times: "I went outside to collect some things, and I will come back after busy, you do not follow me."

Without turning back, he left as if he were hiding.

The python opened his eyes and thought thoughtfully.

* * * * * *

Jiang Yan picked up the withered vines nearby and cobbled together a net.

The net is easy to carry, which is perfect for carrying when you go out to collect. Carrying the vine pocket, he searched the place where the fruit had been gathered.

Most of the wild fruits in the mountains were ripe as early as autumn, and near the end of autumn, a lot of fruit fell from the branches, and the rest was prepared by Jiang Yan to pick several times today, take it back to make fruit pulp, or do air drying treatment and store it.

He worked all day, and in the evening, he cut up a few slices of barbecue and ate them with squeezed juice.

Python this day did not go out, Jiang Yan after eating, water simple wash early sleep, the whole body close to the corner of the stone bed, for fear of being swept out by the python.

* * *

Since the previous day under an autumn rain, Jiang Yan in the night fire can not completely expel the body cold.

He slept restlessly and often woke up cold. The next day he caught a cold and slept in a cave without much spirit. He boiled a pot of hot water and drank frequently.

He put his hands on the fire and rubbed them hard.

It should be said that such a cold day python will rarely go out, but Jiang Yan looked at the shadow of the hole far away, and did not know what the python was going out to do.

After all, snakes have the habit of hibernation, the colder the less active, of course, this jungle and his world has long been out of the same dimension, if this python does not hibernate, it should be quite normal.

And Jiang Yan is eager to Boa often go out, he alone is clean!
