The waterfall rumbled and fell from the cliff. From a distance, it looked like a white stripe. In the deafening sound, white mist splashed from the bottom of the mountain. The sun shone on them, reflecting colorful rainbows.
The pool below the waterfall was very large. By the time it got far away, the waves caused by the water were almost negligible. Due to the constant flow of active water, the bottom of the pool and the stones near the shore were washed cold and smooth, and the surface of the water was clear.
Caspian’s upper body was leaning against a stone on the shore, and his lower body was soaked in water. His eyes were closed and he was motionless, as if he had fallen asleep.
He was no longer wearing his robe. However, because his flesh and blood were particularly condensed, there were no wounds on his body at this time. But, he looked tired, which was rarely seen. He gave people a feeling that he was so tired that he fell asleep.
Time passed little by little.
On the other side of the pool came a light crash, as if something had fallen into the water.
After a while, a faint ripple appeared on the calm water. If it weren’t for the fact that someone knew about it and deliberately went to look for it, they wouldn’t have noticed that the water was shaking slightly. The gently swaying track of the water slowly approached the unconscious Caspian.
Caspian remained motionless, as if he had not noticed anything.
The ripples stopped about 20 feet away from Caspian. The surface of the water never changed again. It was as calm as a mirror and the blue sky and white clouds were reflected inside. There was a quiet and peaceful atmosphere everywhere. But, as if it was sure that Caspian did not notice it, the water surface suddenly burst open.
Like a mirror, a water snake that could reflect its surroundings suddenly jumped up from the water. The water snake was as thick as an adult’s arm. When it stood up, it was taller than an adult.
It broke through the water, opened its bloody mouth, and rushed toward Caspian. It opened its mouth, which was as big as a washbasin. There were countless wrinkles and dense sharp teeth. Even a steel bar could be easily broken. The water snake moved as fast as lightning toward Caspian. It seemed that it could swallow Caspian in one breath.
But, when it was less than two feet away from Caspian, a wall of lightning suddenly appeared in the void.
Sizzle!
The water snake was immediately entangled by the current. The power of the intertwined lightning exploded in an instant, and even the sleep within a radius of dozens of meters suddenly exploded.
The next moment, the water snake was sent flying far away. By the time it landed on the ground, it had turned into a dead snake with its skin and flesh torn open, emitting smoke.
The snake’s mouth was still wide open, and its eyeballs turned white. It suddenly came out, looking as if it would die with its eyes open. It was as if before it died, it was still wondering what kind of unforeseen event had happened.
The water soon returned to normal.
Caspian, who was leaning against the pool, didn’t move from head to toe, as if he didn’t know what was happening around him.
The water once again returned to its original state. After another hour, there was a brisk sound of footsteps in the nearby woods.
There was humming of girls.
She strode toward Caspian with her white calves. It could be seen that she seemed to be in a good mood.
After that, she was not afraid of the ferocious water snake. She kicked it into the pool and walked to the side of Caspian.
When she looked at Caspian, a completely different gentle expression appeared in the girl’s eyes. At the same time, there were complicated feelings mixed with attachment and longing in his eyes.
After a while, she grumbled and reached out to pat Caspian’s arm gently. Even through the veil, it could be seen that there was a blush on her cheeks. However, Caspian was still asleep and had no reaction to her action.
