Chapter 498: Fighting Snakes
Xiong Bailing's giant palm reached out, grabbed Xiong Tiannan, who was lying on the ground, held him under his armpit, immediately turned around and turned back, and shouted at the same time: "Lan'er niece, let's retreat!"
Sima Rulan reluctantly took two steps back, but because the torch was too heavy, she really couldn't move it anymore. Seeing that Xiong Bailing had rescued Xiong Tiannan and retreated to the stone path, she simply threw the two torches to the ground, and also turned around and ran back.
The two of them flew back one after the other, and the two torches fell to the ground before they were extinguished, and the serpent was blocked by the burning flames at the edge of the lake, and for a moment did not catch up.
Xiong Bailing held Xiong Tiannan with one arm, performed light skills, and jumped up fifty or sixty steps in a few flying columns, seeing that he could escape from the cave immediately, but at this time, he only heard an exclamation from behind him, and the sound was made by Sima Rulan. Xiong Bailing looked back and couldn't help but be shocked.
Sima Rulan was in the middle of the stone steps, only twenty or thirty steps away from Xiong Bailing, but at this time, she was tightly entangled by a giant snake!
It turns out that in this cave, there are two giant snakes!
Previously, the two used torches to force the giant snake blocking the way to the lake, Xiong Bailing rescued Xiong Tiannan from the rocks, but another giant snake quietly climbed ashore from the opposite lake. When Sima Rulan retreated up the stone steps, the snake suddenly jumped out and immediately entangled her!
The serpent was slightly smaller than the one by the lake, but it was also ten feet long, and it was covered in jet-black scales, which was difficult to detect in the dark. Sima Rulan was entangled in the snake's body as thick as a wooden barrel, and her appearance changed terribly, and the huge strength of the snake's body was no less than thousands of catties, which not only made her completely unable to move, but even breathed very difficult.
The giant snake's body tightened, and Sima Rulan was suddenly swept into the air, and the giant snake's head was raised, and its bloody mouth was opened, revealing its sickle-like fangs, and it suddenly bit down on Sima Rulan's head!
At this time, Sima Rulan had no power to resist, and she was about to be swallowed by the giant snake, but she only heard a loud "bang", and the neck of the giant snake was hit by a palm, and the snake's head swung out six or seven feet away, and the bite also hit the air!
It was Xiong Bailing who struck out this palm. He saw Sima Rulan in distress above the steps, and hurriedly put Xiong Tiannan aside, turned around and came back to rescue, and missed the snake's head at a critical moment, saving Sima Rulan's life.
However, after a palm was struck, Xiong Bailing was also horrified in his heart.
This palm is Xiong Bailing tried his best to hit, with his decades of "scaring bear paw" skills, even if a palm is slapped on the rock, the stone will be shattered, and what he hit is the "three inches" position between the head and neck of the giant snake, according to common sense is its vital part, ordinary snakes and insects will be hit by the "three inches" will be hit hard.
However, this palm hit the giant snake firmly, but it only made its head and neck swing out a few feet, and did not cause any damage to it at all, but Xiong Bailing felt as if it was slapped on the steel, and the palm of his hand hurt for a while!
It can only be seen that this giant snake is not only huge in size, but also extremely tough, even if it is not a beetle snake among the ancient divine beasts, it is definitely not something that human beings can fight.
The giant snake ate this palm, and was immediately enraged, and there was a "sizzling" howl between its mouth and nose, and suddenly the snake's head stretched out and bit Xiong Bailing!
Xiong Bailing didn't dare to resist, jumped to the side, and dodged the giant snake's mouth, but almost at the same time, the giant snake's tail swept up and wrapped around Xiong Bailing's thigh at once!
If Xiong Bailing retreated in time just now, he might be able to retreat with his whole body, but he refused to leave, just because Sima Rulan was still entangled by the giant snake, if Xiong Bailing retreated, she was afraid that she would be swallowed by the giant snake immediately. And now that he is entangled in the snake's tail, Xiong Bailing can't leave even if he wants to.
The body of this giant snake with a length of more than ten zhang has already entangled Sima Rulan and Xiong Bailing respectively, and is tightening it hard. Xiong Bailing was only better when his legs were entangled, but Sima Rulan's whole body was entangled, and she couldn't breathe immediately, her face showed a look of pain, and the bones on her body "gurgle", as if they would be crushed at any time.
Seeing this, Xiong Bailing was in a hurry, waved his hands continuously, and slapped seven or eight palms one after another, all of which hit the giant snake's body, but he still couldn't let it relax a little.
The skin of this giant snake was thick and thick, and Liang Wude's short dagger with iron like mud could not be cut before, and the blow of the flesh palm could not hurt it. However, Xiong Bailing's "Shocking Bear Paw" is, after all, an extremely strong and superior martial art, and being hit by the palm power containing Gang Qi also makes it suffer a lot.
The giant snake writhed violently, its head raised again, its mouth spat out red letters, and suddenly bit down on Xiong Bailing, wanting to kill this prey that still had the power to resist first!
Xiong Bailing's thighs were entangled, and he could not jump and dodge like before. He knew that he could not be spared, so he roared, used all his strength, and struck directly at the snake's head with one palm!
This palm hit the snake's head hard, but it could only make it come a little less, and the giant snake's bloody mouth turned around and bit Xiong Bailing's right forearm!
Xiong Bailing is also a person with thick skin and thick flesh, and he has practiced hard skills well, and at this time, he has carried his whole body strength on his arms, even if it is an ordinary sword, it is difficult to hurt. However, this giant snake was born with a different species, and the bite power on its mouth was more than thousands of catties, only to hear a "cluck" sound, and two rows of sharp teeth had pierced the skin and flesh of Xiong Bailing's arm, and blood immediately splashed out.
Xiong Bailing roared angrily, and struck the giant snake several times with his left palm, but he still couldn't hurt it for half a point. And the giant snake did not let go, but bit harder, and the snake's tail rolled up, wrapping Xiong Bailing's waist in it.
By now, Xiong Bailing had almost lost the power to resist, and the snake's tail twisted, turning his body as well, Xiong Bailing's eyes inadvertently looked at the bottom of the steps, and he was even more frightened!
It turned out that the giant serpent, which had been forced by the flames, had swam to the other side and climbed ashore, bypassing the torches by the lake, and was now at the bottom of the stone steps, and was rushing straight up the stone steps.
The giant snake in front of him is already impossible to deal with, and if there is a bigger one, it seems that Xiong Bailing and Sima Rulan have no chance of escaping!
Just when Xiong Bailing was in despair, he suddenly heard a shout coming from the steps: "Miss Lan'er, Mr. Xiong, don't be afraid, I'll come down to save you!"
Xiong Bailing was entangled by the giant snake and couldn't see the situation above, so he had to shout loudly: "Young Master Hua, get Nan'er out quickly, don't come down!"
He knew very well in his heart that these two alien giant snakes were extremely powerful, even a person with the best martial arts could not deal with them, Hua Bushi was just a big young master who had no power to restrain the chicken, even if he came down, it would be useless, and he could only take his life in vain. In Xiong Bailing's mind, if Hua Bushi could rescue Xiong Tiannan from the cave on the steps, it would be a great luck.
At this time, another giant snake had already jumped up twenty or thirty steps, and in the blink of an eye, it would also come to the place where Xiong Bailing and Sima Rulan were entangled. But he heard Hua Bushi shouting: "Don't worry, I will definitely save you out! As soon as the big snake relaxes, you will quickly flee up!"
Even a martial arts master like Xiong Bailing, who has the strength of a thousand catties, can't break free, so how can Hua Bushi have a way to relax the giant snake?
At this time, Sima Rulan was tightly wrapped around the snake body, and she was already suffocated and speechless. Xiong Bailing's heart was anxious and angry, and he had an infinite sense of despair, and he wanted to drink the Hindu Hua Bushi again, but he only heard a crisp sound of "bang", but it was an object that smashed on the body of the giant snake, and a rushing smell of wine came to his face.
And then a little fire flew in, and with a bang, the whole staircase was ignited in an instant, and it was blazing!
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※ fact, Hua Bushi has come down from the mouth of the cave for a long time.
He was distraught on the altar, unable to bear the worry about Sima Rulan, and finally picked up the torch and walked down the stone steps.
After entering the cave, Hua Bushi did not go straight down, just because on the steps, he had already seen Xiong Bailing and Sima Rulan confronting the giant snake on the edge of the rocks below, and he knew that he could not help in that situation.
Then the two forced the giant snake to the lake, Xiong Bailing jumped into the stone bushes to rescue Xiong Tiannan, and Sima Rulan ran up the steps one after the other, and Hua Bushi could see it all clearly. Things seemed to be going very smoothly, and there was no deviation from what he had expected, and the eldest young master was relieved.
However, at this moment, the accident suddenly happened!
Hua Bushi didn't expect that there was a second giant snake in this snake cave, and the giant snake was next to the stone wall, hiding in the shadows without showing a trace, until it suddenly jumped out and tightly wrapped Sima Rulan, who was running, Hua Bushi discovered its existence.
And then Xiong Bailing turned back and went back to save Sima Rulan, but he was also entangled by the giant snake and couldn't get out.
Seeing Sima Rulan in danger, Hua Bushi was anxious, but he also knew very well that even if the giant snake that entangled the two of them was slightly smaller than the other, it was still not something that human beings could fight against, and if he rushed down himself, he would not be able to save people, and it would be useless except to give his life.
Immediately he turned and ran up the steps and returned to the altar. After all, this eldest young master is a person who is full of opportunities, and at a critical juncture, he quickly came up with a way to solve the dilemma, which is to use fire.
In the barn behind the stone gate were four barrels of aged wine, which Xiong Bailing had previously carried to the altar, and broke two of them, pouring the spirits in the barrels on the two torches, and the remaining two barrels of wine were placed next to them.
Only by igniting the fire with strong liquor can the serpent be driven away. Hua Bushi thought of this method, in fact, this may be the only feasible way to save Sima Rulan and Xiong Bailing at the moment.
