Chapter 3 Opportunity

  But the two above were unwilling and said: "I say, whats wrong with this guy? Isnt he better now? Why is he still not eating mice? This is really strange!"

  Another person said: "Forget it, maybe its just right, it hasnt got an appetite yet, lets wait till tomorrow when its hungry and take a look again!"

  Before long, the sky had darkened, and at this time, the white snake crawled beside me again and said to me: "I feel that after you recovered from your illness this time, you seem to have changed a lot, not like the previous you!"

  How am I supposed to answer this? Am I supposed to tell it that Im now a snake body and then the soul of a human being is reborn? Of course, I couldnt say that.

  I thought for a moment and said: "Maybe its because I changed after I got sick!"

  The white snake nodded as if it understood, then said: "Mm, its okay, no matter how things change, were all trapped here and cant get out. From now on, lets take care of each other!"

  I thought to myself, this white snake is quite lovely, just like a little girl so innocent. I said to it: "Hmm, if we cant get out, dont worry, Ill take good care of you from now on, but I still want to try my best to find a way out!"

  The sky gradually darkened, and I didnt know how long the snake hadnt eaten anything. Now I feel very hungry and want to eat something! Unfortunately, theres nothing around, so I can only lie quietly beside it, thinking about all that has happened.

  At this time, the white snake also leaned against me. At night, the moonlight shone down, and I gradually felt sleepy. Unconsciously, I fell asleep.

  In my dream, I felt very hungry. I dreamed that I was biting and tearing at the snakes in the cage next to me, wanting to eat them to satisfy my hunger. A moment later, I dreamed again, looking up at the moonlight shining down from the sky, greedily sucking in the moonbeams mouthful by mouthful. Before long, my feeling of hunger disappeared, replaced by a sense of spiritual satisfaction.

  Suddenly I woke up and found that the white snake was staring at me with its eyes wide open, seeing that I had woken up, it asked: "What happened to you just now?"

  I just realized that I had a dream, but I didnt tell it. Do I have to tell it that I was dreaming? At this moment, I looked at the other snakes and animals in the cage next to me, they were also staring at me with their eyes wide open, as if they were looking at a freak.

  I asked the white snake in puzzlement, "Why are you staring at me like that?" The white snake explained to me, "Youre really strange today. I remember that your kind of snake is most active at night, so why did you wake up from sleep? And on top of that, youre wriggling around?"

  I only realized now that the original owner of this body liked to be active at night, even when locked up, he wouldnt sleep at night. But Im a humans consciousness now, so it took me some time to get used to it.

  I just said to the White Snake: "Im hungry, so Im a bit uncomfortable!"

  Animals never have as many thoughts as humans. When I spoke, it believed me and then stopped talking, quietly lying beside me instead.

  Unconsciously, I fell asleep again. For some reason, I felt that the moonlight shining on me was particularly comfortable, and even my previous hunger had disappeared.

  The second day dawned bright and early, I just wanted to stretch my waist, but then I found out that my whole body was covered in goosebumps, so I had no choice but to lift my head and spit out a mouthful of phlegm.

  I dont know how it happened, but when I woke up this morning, I felt very comfortable all over my body. The discomfort from yesterday also disappeared. I couldnt figure out what was going on.

  The next day at noon, the two men came to the cage again and threw in two mice. This time I was smart and as soon as they fell down, I pounced on them so that I wouldnt go hungry again.

  I "whooshed" and, like an arrow off the string, immediately rushed up to grab a mouse. The white snake was not to be outdone and also rushed up to snatch one.

  We both retreated to one side. At the moment I bit the mouse, the snakes nature was exposed without a doubt, and its instincts injected venom into the mouses body.

  However, at this time I still didnt dare to swallow it down, always feeling a bit nauseous. Just then, the white snake killed the mouse with one bite and said to me: "Arent you hungry? Why dont you eat quickly? I ate one yesterday, so Im not hungry now. You eat quickly, this mouse is for you too."

  As soon as I heard that, I was deeply moved. In my life, except for my parents, no one has ever cared about me so much, but now that Ive become a snake, it turns out there are still people of the same kind who care about me like this.

  Although I still cant eat it, it doesnt know that, so I know this is absolutely its genuine intention. But at this time my stomach is really hurting from hunger, finally gritting my teeth and swallowing hard, no choice, if I dont eat now, Ill really starve to death.

  At this time I said to the White Snake: "You eat it, Ive just recovered from illness and my appetite isnt very good yet, so I cant finish eating it!"

  The white snake really didnt have any tricks up her sleeve, and after I said that, she looked at me and still swallowed the mouse. At this time, the two of us lay down in the corner again, slowly digesting our food.

  At this time, the two saw that I had finally eaten, then nodded and took note of something on their notebook. After a while, they walked to other animals and started registering again. Until now, I still dont understand whether this is a zoo or what kind of place it is.

  But I always feel that this place doesnt seem like a zoo, if it were a zoo, why wouldnt anyone come to visit? Its been two days already, and apart from seeing those glasses and these two people, there hasnt been any other extra person coming.

  After they left, I looked at the gate next to me again, but still didnt dare to hit it. At this time, I looked up at the top and found that there was a skylight above, which should be for ventilation.

  Its about two and a half meters off the ground, I couldnt possibly jump that high, what can I do? No way, I have to think of a way to escape, I wont die here, I still want to go out and take revenge.

  But reality is reality, I still cant escape, at least not for now. Its evening again, and the moonlight shines down once more, that comfortable feeling spreading all over my body.

  "Ah, how comfortable!" She let out a soft sigh, then asked the white snake beside her, "Do you feel that this moonlight is shining very comfortably?"

  She looked at me with a puzzled expression and replied: "No, nothing is comfortable!"

  It seems that I am the only one who has this feeling. Although I dont know whats going on, as long as it feels comfortable, I will continue to bask in the moonlight.

  These days, they havent come to see us, and Ive been studying how to escape, but I couldnt think of a way. Feeling anxious, I simply practiced writing on the ground, fortunately these people were afraid of the hard ground, so they let us live in discomfort, so they laid down a layer of sand inside.

  I used my tail to slowly draw on the ground, and surprisingly, it really worked, but it was very ugly, even I couldnt recognize it myself. Hmm, forget about writing, lets just play with drawing instead.

  It wasnt until several days later that the two of them came to the outside of the cage again, and I was bored at the time, so I was drawing and didnt notice anyone had come.

  Suddenly a shout of surprise scared me: "Damn! Is this for real? What is this snake doing? Its actually drawing with its tail on the sand!"

  Another person took a look and was also startled, saying: "This... how is this possible? Is this still a snake? How did I not discover it had this function before?"

  "That person said: I think this snake has become different since it got better, do you think some kind of miracle happened and gave it a spiritual nature?"

  Another person nodded in agreement: "Yeah, youre right, it must be the reason. Ive got to go tell my boss about this and see if we can catch him for research or special training."

  I was startled when I heard this, how could I have forgotten that Im a snake now? Its no wonder theyre scared, a damn snake can actually paint, its unbelievable even to myself.

  Suddenly, I had an epiphany. But if they were going to take me away, could I seize this opportunity to escape? Ah, yes, maybe this was a chance. No, I must grasp this opportunity firmly.

  Thinking of this, I got excited again, didnt expect this unintentional move to become a good opportunity for me to escape, yeah, thats what Ill do.
