The house is very warm, and the shopkeeper thoughtfully placed charcoal basins in the four corners of the house. Mo Siyu took off his cloak, and simply used his old clothes to build a warm nest in the corner of the house. The little snake put it in the nest.
Snake stew is out of the question, and it might be of great use to keep this snake by your side.
After doing all of this, Mo Siyu yawned and lay down on the bed...
Early in the morning of the second day, Mo Siyu was woken up by the yelling of peddlers outside.
"Come on, come on, delicious sweet-scented osmanthus wine."
"The delicious glutinous rice balls are chaotic, come and taste a bowl when you pass by."
"Steamed buns, steamed buns, steamed rolls, hot out of the pan..."
…
Mo Siyu closed his eyes and listened for a while, swallowed, opened his eyes, sat up with his arms propped up, rubbed his heavy head, and sneezed.
Probably when I was watching my brother last night, I fell asleep lying on the table, and accidentally caught a cold, a little top-heavy, and my throat was dry and sore.
She had just gotten out of bed when there was a knock on the door. Mo Siyu thought it was the owner of the shop, sniffed, and went to open the door in a daze, only to see Chu Chuyan standing at the door.
Mo Siyu opened his mouth and was about to speak when he sneezed again, snot and tears were about to flow out.
Seeing this, Chu Chuyan quickly stepped into the door, closed the door of the wing room, and wrapped her in a cloak, "It's only been a night since I didn't see you, why did Brother Yu get sick?"
As he spoke, he put his palm on Mo Siyu's forehead, and saw that his forehead was hot, and said anxiously, "Brother Yu should have some medicine here, right? Take some, where is the medicine bag?"
He searched around the room and saw that the corner was tightly covered with thick clothes. He raised his hand and stepped back several steps before he could stand still: "This... ..How could there be such a long red blood lotus in this room?"
"Red blood lotus?" Mo Siyu turned his head and looked towards Chu Chuyan, "You said this kind of snake is called red blood lotus here?"
"Yeah, you don't know?" Chu Chuyan was a little strange: "Where did you catch this snake?"
"Pick it up casually." Mo Siyu became more and more interested: "No wonder the whole body is red like flames, and it is called the red blood lotus..."
"This kind of snake is rare, and it has always been impossible to pick it up casually." Chu Chuyan naturally did not believe it: "This winter, unless someone summons it, this kind of snake will not appear here."
Hearing what Chu Chuyan said, Mo Siyu became more and more sure of his inner thoughts: "There are few varieties?"
"That's right, otherwise they wouldn't regard it as the totem of the Moon City people."
At this moment, Mo Siyu recalled belatedly, when he entered and exited the priest's mansion a few times ago, the majestic pillars in the priest's mansion were carved with snakes...
On New Year's Eve, when praying for blessings and offering sacrifices to heaven, there are also nine snakes circling on the appearance of the large vats and tripods placed on the altar...
I didn't expect it to be this kind of snake, the Red Blood Lotus!
Mo Siyu became more and more interested in this red blood lotus: "Since it can be summoned by others, it can understand human nature."
Mo Siyu stretched his hand to the neck, took out the bone whistle from inside, and put it in his mouth.
Chu Chuyan frowned: "Brother Yu, don't mess around, if you can't control it..."
Before Chu Chuyan finished speaking, Mo Siyu's bone whistle echoed in the guest room.
The little snake hovering in the warm nest had already woken up from the frozen state because it was close to the charcoal basin. Hearing the sound of the bone whistle, the little snake immediately raised its head high, and the black snake letter kept spitting out, straight Staring at Mo Siyu's direction...
