【Thousand Fantasy】Snake and Rabbit in the Same Cage

Chapter 6

· Xiao Biesheng is newly married (not)

Senku, who heard the wailing of the rabbit, gave the familiar an order to be patient, so the little snake kept its tail wrapped around Gen's upper arm, while its small head was pressed against Gen's chest to keep warm.

Thinking about it carefully, there is nothing to be afraid of such a little guy.Fan felt that he was really making a fuss.He looked down at his chest, and the small lump in his clothes obediently did not move.So he mustered up the courage to touch the place where his head was probably through his clothes, but the little guy remained motionless.

He opened his collar, and a pair of small red eyes that looked like Qianku just looked at him.

pretty cute...

He touched the little snake's head with his fingertips, and the snake hissed and spat out.

Harder than expected, cool and very smooth.When his head was stroked, the part wrapped around him tightened for a moment, Gen's heart skipped a beat, and he didn't know whether he liked it or not.

He suddenly thought: No, isn't this snake connected with Qiankong's senses?So now that he touches it himself, can Qiankong feel it too?His cheeks became hot all of a sudden, he closed his collar and covered the little snake in his clothes again.

I don't know if my message has played a role, but the orcs are rarely seen on the street, and even if there are, several people walk together.In order to make these cheap labor force create greater profits, the human beings in the former empire always required them to work much longer than normal human working hours. Even at night, they could still be seen working hard.

It is true that orcs do not need to maintain sufficient sleep to be energetic to work like humans. For example, the rock sheep baker, after selling out all the bread in the shop at night, he can only take a short rest before getting up to bake Bread for sale the next day.Presumably, the night he was killed, he was targeted because he was baking bread alone in the shop.

After wandering around for most of the night, Huan found nothing.The tavern on the street was also closed, and a lame lemur was walking home from his drunken master who was helping him.Gen recognized them, the human was a vegetable vendor who lived nearby.He always buys vegetables from farmers in the suburbs at a low price, and then neatly arranges them in the store, and the price immediately doubles.

Originally relying on this business, he could also live a rich life, but he is a drunkard, and almost all the money he earns goes into the pocket of the tavern owner.So I am not young, but I have never had a family, and I only have the lemur attendant who injured a leg while mining in the north.

The vegetable vendor has a bad temper, and often scolds the lemur for a little mistake.While shopping for vegetables and chatting, Huan persuaded him to change his employer, but Lemur said that with his conditions, he couldn't find a job in the first place.The master doesn't despise him, and he can feed him every day, which makes him very satisfied.Furthermore, this alcoholic who is frustrated in life is actually not as vicious as he looks.

Gen stood by the side of the street, hiding himself in the shadow of the house. He watched the little lemur limping and helping the owner back to the vegetable shop, and he didn't feel relieved until the gate was closed.

Just as he was about to leave, he found that the little snake on his chest poked its head out of his skirt at some point.

"Xiao Qiankong, are you watching?" He smiled: "I'm a little worried about him. Now that they're home, I can continue to be the bait."

Qian Kong patted his head.When Gen stroked his familiar just now, the gentle touch reached him as well.He complained in a low voice what Teacher Huan was doing, but he hoped that he would touch her for a while longer.But Rabbit seemed to realize that he could feel his touch right away, and put the familiar back into his arms again.

That's all, anyway, I can feel his body temperature through the familiar, and I am very satisfied.

Thinking about it, Qiankong felt that he was really cowardly.He was not such a timid person before, he always chased after what he wanted, and sometimes he was so self-willed that even Baiye couldn't do anything about him.But now, if he wants to touch a rabbit he likes, he still has to rely on the familiar as a medium.

"It's unreasonable," he murmured.

Feeling Huan stopped in his tracks and stood for a long time, he was a little worried, so he asked the familiar to get out of his clothes to see what happened.But he saw Huan just watching an orc who seemed to have inconvenient legs and feet, helping an unconscious human to walk home.

Maybe he was worried about that beast race, Senku thought.Gen seems to be kind and gentle to every orc, maybe because he is such a person, he can still accept himself after knowing his true identity.

There is no help, I really like him.

Qian Kong lowered his head, buried his face in his palm, and took a deep breath to stop the sourness in his heart from continuing to surge.When he raised his head again, he saw a huge shadow completely engulfing Huan.

Huan was talking to the little snake, it seemed to understand it, but it didn't seem to understand it, it just looked at him with its round eyes.Suddenly, the little snake jumped out of his clothes and jumped up behind him.Huan hurriedly turned around, and saw that the little snake had bitten the throat of the shadow behind him.

But its tiny teeth failed to bite through the enemy's skin, so it was torn off by the opponent, and it disappeared into smoke in an instant.

At the same time, a ray of light appeared where the little snake disappeared, and Qianku activated the teleportation magic that had been applied to his familiar before it was completely destroyed.

He finally saw the shadow clearly.

It was a burly lion, even with a hunched body, it was twice as tall as Qian Kong.The predator that shouldn't have been here was covered in blood at this moment. Under the moonlight, the blood stains could clearly be seen to be still fresh, dripping down from his mouth.

A fishy-sweet smell began to fill the air, and his out-of-focus eyes had an eerie light, making him look crazy.

"Teacher Huan, his condition is not normal, let's run first." Qiankong said with a headache.He is not good at fighting this kind of powerful orcs, and the agility of cats often makes him difficult to parry.The two sisters, Liuli and Hubo, who grew up together are cats, and he has never defeated Hubo in pure comparison of power suppression.

Besides, he doesn't want to fight with his own kind.But if the opponent intends to attack Huan, it will be different.

The rabbit didn't respond, and when Qiankong looked in his direction, he found him frozen in place.It wasn't that he couldn't move because of extreme fear, but that he was completely stunned for no reason.

The male lion, who had just finished a gluttonous feast, was still immersed in bloodthirsty madness, and in an instant he had arrived in front of Huan.Just when he was about to throw the rabbit who seemed to have lost his mind to the ground, he suddenly staggered and fell down.He lowered his head and saw that the unconscious leg that made him fall turned into stone at some point, and this petrification was still spreading upward bit by bit.

Qian Kong rubbed his red eye sockets, he hadn't used petrification magic for a long time, but this level of petrification made his eyes hurt like they were about to burst.The angry and struggling male lion radiated magic light, and soon, his petrified leg began to peel off pieces.

Fortunately, Huan came back to his senses in time, and the ground where the lion fell suddenly cracked a wide gap, allowing the unsupported beast to fall like a meteor into the bottomless darkness.

Of course, this is just an illusion that appears in the five senses of the lion.He was wrapped in the fear of falling into the abyss and no longer struggled.

"Let's go." Qian Kong stretched out his hand to the rabbit, who held it without hesitation.The two ran until they couldn't even smell the smell of blood. Huancai gasped and said, "You have to tell the wizard on duty, otherwise someone will be attacked."

After that, he glanced at Qian Kong again: "You go back first, I will go to the sentry alone."

"I'll be with you." Qian Kong said, "I won't go in, I'll just wait outside."

He knew that the condition of the lion just now was absolutely abnormal.Predation is indeed the instinct of the superior orcs, but they will be so crazy that they will completely lose their minds, and they will kill even if there is no chance of winning. There is only one possibility.That is, his magic power has been exhausted and he is on the verge of death.

The magic power absorbed by bathing once in the holy lake is enough for Qiankong to use it for several months.Although he has never experienced the feeling of losing his mind once, he still remembers the time limit when he must return to Shikami Island.

Huan quickly came out of the sentry post, and smiled at Qiankong: "The wizard here said to immediately ask the wizard on duty in the nearby neighborhood for reinforcements to hunt down that lion."

"You smile very reluctantly." Qiankong looked at him and said, the arc of the rabbit's lips gradually disappeared.He lowered his head, staring at his shadow on the ground: "I seem to have seen the scene just now."

A crazy male lion is hunting and killing rabbits running around.Such a picture suddenly flooded into Han's mind on that dark street. When he finally broke free from this terrifying scene, he suddenly realized that maybe it was his memory.It was his first memory of the despair of being hunted.

This vague memory fragment confirmed his countless conjectures about his past: why did he stand on the deserted grassland covered in blood at that time?Where did the large expanse of blood flowing on the ground, which was about to converge into a river, come from?

He wished he hadn't thought of it.

When flustered, he always tried to hide it with a smile.But after hooking the corners of his lips, he realized that it was pointless to do so in front of Qianku.So he lowered his eyes and asked, "What happened to that lion just now?"

"I don't know." Qiankong lied subconsciously: "Maybe he is under some kind of magic."

He begged the rabbit not to go on to the next question.

But the rabbit still raised his eyes and looked at him: "Then... will Xiao Qiankong become like this?"

"No." Qian Kong blurted out.At this moment, he has a lot to say, such as the holy lake and Shikami Island, which has nothing to do with the world, such as he has never hunted anyone, such as even if there is a day when he needs to absorb the magic power of others, he will never choose light mist It was a phantom, but he felt stuck in his throat and didn't say anything.Because he knew that it was an unchangeable fact that he was born as a bloodthirsty beast.

"Then I'm relieved. Let's go back today. We will continue with the plan after the lion is caught."

Gen said, walking towards the direction of the orphanage.He was walking fast and seemed desperate to get home.It also seemed that he wanted to stay away from Qiankong.Qian Kong, who was left far behind, stood there for a long time, and only followed when Huan's figure at the end of the long street was almost out of sight.

His palm still has the warm body temperature, this is the only time the rabbit took the initiative to get close to him, but it is fleeting like all good things.

That lion, stained with the blood of an unknown number of people or beasts, was hung in the square early the next morning. He was scorched all over, and the flesh on his face was cracked and rolled up, exposing sharp teeth.It seems that it was solved by a wizard who is good at fire magic.

His body will be hung here for a full week, as the wizards of the empire have always punished the superior orcs for trespassing.Just like hanging the corpses of their own kind in the wheat fields that are always pecked by birds, it can effectively deter other birds.

For several days after that, Geng refused the opportunity to perform, and during the day he discussed with Senku about wizards, and at night he wandered the streets as bait.They are constantly making new plans and changing regions.Qian Kong gave Huan another small familiar snake, but this time the little snake was quietly wrapped in Huan's sleeve, not only would it not crawl around, it would never even touch his skin.

They seem to be still in harmony, but in reality they are alienating Qiankong.Chiku could feel this too.

The moment he retrieved the memory fragments, Gen understood how ridiculous the affection his former self had for Chiku.Fortunately, he has never expressed his feelings to Qian Kong, and it is still too late to end everything.

Still, the kids love playing with Senku.After getting along for a period of time, Qian Kong has adapted to being surrounded by noisy children, and no longer asks Gen for help.He taught children to use magic to recombine the elements of ready-made things, such as making granulated sugar in the kitchen as delicious as candy in the candy store, or turning well water into the most popular fruit popsicles on the street.

Rabbit always watched all this silently.

"Mr. Huan, will Brother Qiankong live with us forever?" Xigua asked.Most ordinary orc children can't even master the flow of their own magic power, let alone use magic.She had learned all the little tricks Senku had taught them, as well as making real flowers bloom in her own hands.

Senku praised her, saying she was very talented.

"Do you like him?" Huan asked her.

Watermelon nodded shyly.

"Don't get too close to him." Huan looked at Qian Kong who was hugging a child who was crying for some reason, and coaxed him clumsily, and sighed: "He is different from us."

"Qian Kong...he is a snake, right?" Xigua asked unexpectedly.

"How do you know?" Huan asked in surprise.

Gen thought that Senku should have never revealed his identity in the orphanage.When he came back that night, even when he was sleeping, he hadn't changed back to his old self.

"Because Xigua's nose is very sensitive." Xigua rubbed the tip of his nose: "Besides, there is no smell of blood on Brother Qiankong. Xigua feels very at ease with him."

Rabbit suddenly noticed that Qian Kong's figure began to sway, as if wrapped in something, so blurred that he couldn't see clearly.He didn't realize he was crying until a tear spilled from his eye socket and fell down his cheek.
