Chapter 156: The Little Snake's Past and Present Life

~17 min read 3,340 words

In order to avoid being hurt by the impact on the water when they fell, Tom Mu broke away from Jackie Chan's arms, grabbed Jackie Chan with four paws, opened his mouth, and took a deep breath!
With the help of the strong wind that roared into his mouth when he fell, Tang Mu's body quickly expanded.
After a while, it turned into a cat balloon.
With the unloading force of the Maomao balloon, Jackie Chan and the others' falling speed instantly slowed down.
After a few seconds, the original rapid fall turned into a slow drift.
Jackie Chan and Xiaoyu were stunned when they saw this scene.
Although we usually know that the cat Tom Mu is very smart and very understanding of human nature, he can almost be treated by a cat-like human being.
But they never expected that Tang Mu could achieve such an unscientific level.
On the rocky mountain behind them, the group of believers chased them to the edge of the cliff and did not dare to continue chasing.
I could only watch angrily as the big balloon that Tom Mu turned into carried Jackie Chan and the others farther and farther away.
Apart from continuing to throw stones at Tom Mu and the others to vent their anger, there was nothing else they could do.
The balloon floated several hundred meters forward along the river, and finally slowly fell into the river.
As soon as his feet touched the water, Jackie Chan quickly adjusted his posture to float on the river and try to maintain balance.
Xiaoyu can also swim, and with Jackie Chan dragging her along, she can adapt quickly after entering the water.
Because of the presence of Tang Mu, they slowly floated down from the holy mountain and were not harmed by the impact after falling into the water. They were all in good condition at this time.
Tom can swim and likes to take a bath.
But maybe due to the influence of the cat's nature, it doesn't really want to go into the water, especially the water in India, which always gives it a very dirty feeling.
Tang Mu hugged Jackie Chan's head and kept him completely above the water. He even curled up his tail to prevent him from touching the water.
"Xiaoyu, we have to swim to the shore quickly."
Jackie Chan paddled and stepped on the water, signaling to Xiaoyu beside him.
Xiaoyu looked behind Jackie Chan with a horrified look on her face and exclaimed: "Uncle Long, be careful! There is a crocodile!"
"What!"
When Jackie Chan heard this, he was also startled and turned around quickly.
On the river, about ten meters away, circles of ripples were pushed away, and the crocodile's iconic back emerged from the water, swimming quickly towards them.
"Click"
Tom quickly took a photo, then reached out to pick up a broken branch floating in the water. After the crocodile approached, he hit the crocodile's raised head with a stick!
The poor crocodile just sensed something here and came over to take a look out of curiosity.
As a result, as soon as I got close, I was hit with a wooden stick. My head was buzzing and I felt extremely wronged.
Tom doesn't care about that much.
This crocodile came just in time, just in time for it to need a means of transportation.
Tom jumped from Jackie Chan's head to the crocodile's back.
Only at this moment did Tom Mu have time to carefully look at the crocodile under his feet.
This crocodile is about 50 years old, five or six meters long, its body is olive green, its upper and lower jaws are particularly slender, and its teeth are sharp.
Such typical appearance features, plus this is India.Then the scientific name of this crocodile is ready to be revealed.
The gharial.
One of the largest crocodiles in the world, it inhabits rivers in northern India and is also found in rivers, ponds, and swamps in Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and Nepal.
This thing is an extremely endangered species. Judging from its size, it should be an adult male crocodile.
After traveling all over the country, the well-informed Jackie Chan also recognized this kind of crocodile. He breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't dare to relax too much.
The gharials are not very aggressive towards humans, and there have never been reports of cannibalism. However, we all know the situation in the Ganges River, where there are many corpses.
Therefore, these gharials will also eat the dead bodies of Indians buried in the Ganges River.
Seeing Tom jumping on the back of the gharial, Jackie Chan was still a little nervous.
Although the gharial crocodile is not as notorious as the Nile crocodile and the Gulf crocodile, it is still a large predator after all. Jackie Chan is also a little worried that something will happen to Tom Mu.
But in the end, the scene that worried Jackie Chan never appeared.
After Tom jumped on the back of the gharial, he took out a bunch of reins from somewhere and put it around the gharial's neck.
Just like a cowboy taming a fierce horse, he sat firmly on the back of this crocodile.
No matter how violently the gharial struggled after regaining consciousness, Tom still sat on its back, and even kept shouting cheerfully "Yah!"
Strangely, after some struggle, this six-meter-long giant crocodile finally settled down obediently, just like a tamed fierce horse, obeying Tom Mu's control.
"Wow! Tom! You are so awesome!"
Holding the reins in his hands, Tang Mu grinned at Xiaoyu with a big smile.
Then he waved to his uncle and nephew, gesturing for them to come up too.
Jackie Chan was still a little hesitant when he saw this, but Xiaoyu didn't care so much.
Very excited, he swam over and sat down behind Tang Mu.
Seeing this, Jackie Chan sighed and climbed onto the back of the gharial, still muttering: "I think today is the most bizarre day I have ever encountered in my life."
Tang Mu turned his head and glanced at Jackie Chan, thinking to himself, where is this going? There are so many bizarre things that will follow.
"Drive!"
Tang Mu shook the reins, and the gharial underneath him immediately twisted its body, pushed away the water waves, and moved forward along the river.
Along the way, many locals passing by the river bank saw this scene, and they immediately shouted and yelled. Some even shouted and knelt down directly, which made Jackie Chan very embarrassed.
Xiaoyu was quite excited. She could brag about riding a crocodile in front of other children for a long time.
Jackie Chan and Tom Mu began to use special transportation to return.
In a small town on the other side.
Carrying a big bag and dressed like a tourist, Little Snake walked on the potholed streets with a smile.
Ignoring the eager and direct gazes of the Indian men around her, she walked briskly into a hotel room she had booked in advance.
Because the false mask was broken by Tang Mu, the little snake could only act in its true self.
But now that the task has been completed, it doesn't matter in this regard.
Little Snake has never been afraid of her true identity being known. She has enough confidence in herself and is confident that she can live comfortably even if she is wanted globally.
The reward for this commissioned mission is good and generous, and the mission difficulty is not too difficult.
Just follow an archaeologist to find a place and take some things.
Although something went wrong during the mission and was discovered by a cat and a little girl, fortunately, the mission was successfully completed in the end.
Speaking of the archaeologist, it seems to be fate.
Before I received the commission, I had an encounter with that silly archaeologist in Xiangjiang.
At that time, he suffered from an occupational disease and even took a necklace from his pocket.
The little snake lying on the hotel bed pulled out a necklace from his chest.
This necklace is of good craftsmanship and looks very beautiful.
The pendant is still a flat pure anemone with a ruby ​​as an embellishment.
The design of the necklace is certainly not at the forefront of today's fashion. Little Snake can also see that this thing is an antique.
In the past, she would definitely not like this type of jewelry.
But after she got this necklace from Jackie Chan, she liked it very much when she saw it at the first sight, so she put it on without even thinking about it.
Maybe it's also because of this necklace.
Even though he was in love with Wuji, Little Snake also had a slight liking for Jackie Chan, the seemingly naive archaeologist.
"Just to help pick up something, I will give you half a million dollars. Is this thing so old?"
After staring at the necklace in his hand and admiring it for a while, the little snake finally turned his attention back and looked at the big bag he had thrown aside.
Sitting casually on the hotel bed, the little snake pulled the backpack and took out the three items inside.
An ancient painting, an ancient sword, and a tiger charm jade pendant.
These are her spoils this time.
The client only asked for the jade pendant by name, so the ancient painting and ancient sword were automatically assigned to the little snake's name.
The jade pendant is worth half a million dollars, and the painting and the ancient sword should also fetch a lot.
The little snake planned to take a look for himself, then ask someone to help identify it, and then sell it at an auction.
The little snake thought that maybe the painting and sword could be sold for a higher price than the jade pendant.
"This guy is quite pretty. I wonder if the artist painted her on purpose.nice. "
The little snake unfolded the ancient painting and looked at it first. He acknowledged the beauty of the woman in the painting, but he was still a little dissatisfied in his words.
He curled his lips, put away the ancient painting, and looked at the ancient sword again.
This sword is a bronze sword. Two thousand years have not left any trace on this sword.
The sharp edge of the sword can still cut iron like mud and break hair.
The most important thing is that this bronze sword looks very good.
The fish scale pattern on the blade gave the sword a sense of nobility, which made a girl like Xiao Snake like it very much.
"This sword is so beautiful. It's a pity that it doesn't have a scabbard. If there is a matching scabbard, the value of this sword can be doubled."
The little snake touched the fish scale pattern on the sword and put it aside.
It was not until the end that the little snake took out the tiger charm jade pendant.
This thing is what the employer wants by name.
The little snake was also quite curious as to why this gadget was worth so much trouble.
Playing with the Tiger Talisman Jade Pendant casually in his hand, Little Snake took out his cell phone, found a phone number inside, and dialed it directly.
"Dudu——"
The phone rang twice and was answered quickly.
"This is Walloon."
"Hello, Mr. Vallon, I am Little Snake."
The little snake was lying on the bed with his legs crossed. He raised the jade pendant to the light and was checking the light transmittance of the tiger charm jade pendant.
"I know you, the famous criminal thief, if you were an ordinary person, you wouldn't be able to call me."
Wallon on the other side of the phone seemed a little proud when he spoke. Before the little snake could speak, Wallong continued: "You called me. Did you already get the things?"
"Of course, I've got the stuff, and I'm ready to trade it. I have to watch the rest of the money arrive."
The little snake looked at the jade pendant in his hand again: "It's very beautiful. Has your mafia started playing with antiques too?"
"This is nothing for you to worry about. Beautiful lady, you should know very well that sometimes, knowing more about something is not necessarily a good thing."
The voice on Wallon's side suddenly became cold.
"Okay, I'm not interested in the development of your mafia either. As long as the money is in place, it will be delivered with one hand."
The little snake really doesn't care about the mafia.

Having been in this business for so long, of course she has seen all kinds of people.
"My people are also in India and are on their way to you now. Just wait where you are. Once we confirm the goods, the money will be credited to your account immediately."
Valon said and hung up the phone.
"Dudu——"
Listening to the busy tone from the phone, Little Snake curled her lips: "How rude."
Putting the mobile phone away, the little snake brought the tiger talisman jade pendant in front of him and looked at it carefully, and said to himself: "The employer just needs to pay you. If I sell you later, I have to leave quickly. This country is really waiting for you." uncomfortable."
With that said, the little snake looked at the Tiger Talisman Jade Pendant in his hand, but the voice in his mouth gradually became smaller and smaller, and finally his eyes became a little dazed.
This jade pendant seemed to have a special magic power, pulling her memory back to ancient times unknown how long ago.
In a daze, the little snake felt as if he had lived a long life again.
Zhuang Zhou dreamed of butterflies, and butterflies dreamed of Zhuang Zhou.
In this dream, she became an ancient Chinese person.
The dynasty at that time was even earlier than the Qin Dynasty.
She inherited a lotus bud from her master, who called it a token of the immortal god.
At the same time, it also explains its mission.
In the land of China at that time, there was an evil and powerful demon mage who ruled the world. Relying on his own strength to become king and dominate, the people under his rule live in a state of water and fire.
In order to end all this, "she" went alone to assassinate the demon mage named Curse Lan.
In the final battle, "she" used the token of the immortal god to severely injure Curlan. Curlan wanted to escape, but was entangled by "himself", and finally flew into the universe together.
Originally, Curse Lan wanted to go to the moon, but the token of the immortal god restrained it too much. In the end, it failed to fly to the moon and died on an asteroid passing by the earth.
Along with "himself", he also died together with Curse Lan on that asteroid.
"I" have died, and this memory should have ended here.
But the ability of the Tiger Talisman Jade Pendant seems to be more than that, and even the subsequent memories related to the lotus bud immortal god's token have been inherited.
Demons never truly die.
Even if he was defeated by the Token of the Immortal God again, it was only the demonic energy that turned into and flew on the asteroid together with the lotus bud for more than 800 years.
After an asteroid passes by the earth, it does not never return.
There are also many observed asteroids that pass by the Earth every once in a while.
The same is true for the asteroid where Curse Lan died.
More than 800 years later, the asteroid that had been infiltrated by the blue devil's energy returned to Earth.
This time the asteroid did not pass by the earth, but was captured by the earth's gravity, or was actively seduced by the earth's gravity under the influence of the blue magic.
In the end, the asteroid finally fell towards the earth.
That year was 211 BC.
That is what is recorded in "The Chronicles of the First Emperor of Qin" in Volume 6 of "Historical Records": "In the thirty-sixth year of the reign of Emperor Qin Shihuang, he stayed in charge and guarded his heart."
The memory stopped abruptly here, and the little snake suddenly woke up.
A dream that seemed both short and long at the same time cost the little snake a lot of energy.
She felt a chill on her forehead.
Raising his hand, he realized that he was sweating unknowingly.
"Is this how the Star Gem came to be?"
Xiao Snake and Jackie Chan almost arrived at the Disha Temple in front and back.
The little snake saw every move of Jackie Chan and the others, and naturally heard Jackie Chan translate the words on the sarcophagus. In addition, William tilted up the sky star gem, and the sarcophagus and the saint lost their buoyancy.
All of this, combined with the information he obtained in that dream, the answer is obvious.
The reason why the so-called Sky Star Gem has the magic power to make people levitate is because the Sky Star Gem was dug out from the asteroid that fell in Dongjun as recorded in historical records.
And that asteroid has been infiltrated by the blue demonic energy for eight hundred years, and has long been no longer a mortal thing.
In his dream, he could learn that what the so-called Cursed Blue Demon is best at is the manipulation of gravity.
Raising his hand, Little Snake looked at the Tiger Talisman Jade Pendant in his hand, his expression suddenly became very tangled.
At this point, although there are still many things that are not fully understood, Little Snake also knows that he seems to have been involved in a very bizarre incident.
In the dream, the powerful oppressive feeling of the Moon Demon Curse Blue was still vivid in my mind.
If it weren't for the existence of the so-called token of immortality, there would be no people in the world who could fight against the great devil.
With the demon's ability, it is not impossible to destroy human beings.
She even had an intuition that after nearly three thousand years, the moon demon was coming back again.
Such a major matter can no longer be decided casually.
The Tiger Talisman Jade Pendant in his hand is obviously a vital treasure, and those mafia guys seem to know something.
If it's just an ordinary antique, it won't matter if the little snake is sold.
But now this jade pendant is not just related to an antique, it may even be related to the life and death of countless people.
The seriousness of the matter was suddenly heightened, and the little snake no longer dared to make random decisions.
Nothing is clear yet. The Mafia is a criminal organization after all.
The little snake didn't trust them.
In this case, it is better to take these things to the archaeologist.
The archaeologist looks silly and has a little girl and a cat with him. He should be a trustworthy person.
Moreover, he came here just for this jade pendant.
I still listened to my employer's advice and followed the archaeologists all the way before I found the jade pendant.
"He may also know something that I don't know."
In this case, let's leave first.
The little snake made a decision in her heart, immediately packed up her things, climbed out of the window and left this simple hotel.
Ten minutes after Little Snake left, La Su, Ah Zhou and Ah Fen came here, wanting to make a complete deal with Little Snake.
But in the end, I found that there was nothing here, and the little snake had already disappeared without a trace.
