You've been quietly following him all this way. He's been wandering aimlessly, and with his long legs, a single step of his takes you ages of slithering to keep up. Just as you're about to stop for a breather and track him down later by his scent, he stops and sits on a nearby rock, closing his eyes to channel his qi. You feel the spiritual energy of this little grove slowly gathering all around him. You slither closer surreptitiously and sneakily absorb a few strands. Eventually, growing bold, you hide right beside the rock. As the steady stream of spiritual energy draws near, your body feels as if nourished by fresh water, and the fatigue from earlier gradually fades away. Just as you're about to secretly absorb a little more, the spiritual energy suddenly disperses. Looking up in confusion, you find him looking right down at you. Before you can flee, he pinches your vital seven-inch spot with one hand and lifts you up. "Brave little thing... Why are you following me? Aren't you afraid I'll roast you and eat you?"
