The breath coming from the cave was strange, like the breath of a huge beast, sometimes long, sometimes rapid. But there was no smell of blood in the wind, it was clean, but it had a coldness that made my heart tremble slightly.

Even if there is no moon snake in this, it is definitely not simple.

"Have your people gone down to see it?"

I asked.

"Not yet, the hole is very deep, and it looks like the situation is unclear below. We thought it would be better to wait until daylight to go down. The snake at night is too alert. ”

There is nothing wrong with the approach of several Orions.

"Brother Shan, it's best not to go down at night. ”

Luo Qiong also reminded.

I was about to nod my head when a voice suddenly came from my ear, whispering, "Go down, you will find something." ”

Auditory hallucinations are back, and lately more often than in the past.

"Luo Qiong, you have a rope there, get ready, I'm going down." ”

If auditory hallucinations were to be seen as some kind of manifestation of my intuition, then I would like to believe that it would bring me different results.

"Brother Shan, it's best not to go down at night, the situation below must be very complicated, and it is difficult to take care of it if you go down. ”

Although Luo Qiong carried the rope on his back, he still didn't want me to go down.

"Don't worry, I'm measured, you and the fat man are watching from above, Lingqian and the two of us will go down. ”

As he spoke, he wrapped a rope around his waist, and then slowly walked down the mouth of the cave. It was useless for the fat man and Luo Qiong to persuade me, so they could only wait at the entrance of the cave.

As for the surrounding hunters, they were more watching the excitement, the cave was very deep, I walked down about five or six meters, it was very dark all around, I stepped on the wall of the cave, shone it down with a flashlight, and then shouted: "It looks like five or six meters below." The walls of the cave are very slippery, Lingqian, how are you doing over there?"

"Nothing special. ”

"Fatty, keep going down, be careful. When the fat man heard the sound, he continued to lower me, and after about five or six meters, he stepped on the ground, and took a few tentative steps forward, making sure that it was hard enough, and then continued to walk forward.

"Lingqian, come down, I'm the end!"

It must be nearly ten meters from top to bottom, which is relatively high for us ordinary people, but for a moon snake more than twenty meters long, this drop is nothing.

After Lingqian fell, I untied the rope, and I looked ahead, and the light source from the flashlight was basically some stones, scattered on the ground. I went up and checked it, and there were obvious cuts in the cross-section of the stone, which was not a natural formation.

"Why does this place look like a ruin?"

I said strangely. After turning a few stones, I was more sure of my guess. This is also in the belly of Mount Taibai, although it is still close to the edge. But who would dig a cave in this famous cave in China? Obviously not the local residents, because they don't know about the existence of the cave itself.

Who could that be?

The more I thought about it, the more strange I felt, but at this moment I heard Lingqian holding a flashlight and shouting, "There is a discovery here." ”

I hurried over and looked where she stood, and there were some silver sequins scattered on the ground, emitting a faint silver glow in the light of the flashlight. I bent down and picked up a piece and looked at it in my hand, and there was a sudden look on my face.

The silver sequins didn't seem to be snake scales, but stones. The texture and texture tell it's different from the snake scales I've seen. Generally speaking, snake scales are adhered to the skin of the snake and are brought down when the snake molts, so although it cannot be said to be soft to the touch, it is not particularly hard, and the surface is smooth and not rough. The silver thing, which looked shiny silver, felt more like some kind of stone, heavy and rough.

"Is the moon snake different from ordinary snakes, and why do these snake scales feel so strange?"

I asked, confused.

"I don't know, let's take a look. ”

Lingqian couldn't give an accurate answer, so she continued to walk forward with me.

Following the silver scales scattered from time to time, we walked deeper into the cave, and at this time we estimated that we had walked about fifty meters, and the top of the cave above our heads, the walls and tunnels of the cave were visibly polished.

"There's a building up ahead, be careful. ”

Lingqian reminded us loudly, and we slowed down and leaned in, and the buildings that appeared in the light of the flashlights gradually became clear, like a huge semi-circular stone door, supporting the roof of the cave, and the left and right sides were attached to the walls of the cave.

On the left and right sides of the stone gate, there are two stone pillars, generally speaking, the stone pillars should climb on the sacred beasts such as dragons or phoenixes, symbolizing auspicious signs. But the two stone pillars in front of me were actually two white snakes!

We slowly approached, stood outside the stone pillar and took a closer look, the two white snakes were carved lifelike, the whole body was snow-white, and the stone was similar to white marble, which had been hidden in this mountain for so long without a single dust. Turn the flashlight to look at the stone gate, and some words appear on the pillars on both sides of the stone gate: Hidden in the Taibai Ling Mountain, the white shadow of the fairy sound is in the ears.

At the top of the stone gate, there is a name engraved: Fairy Snake Residence.

"Lingqian, Immortal Snake Residence, have you seen it in ancient documents?"

I asked, confused.

Lingqian, who hadn't seen these words before, was stunned when he heard them, and immediately said in surprise: "Immortal Snake Residence, where did you hear that?"

"It's engraved on it, see for yourself. ”

I pointed upward.

Lingqian hurriedly shone the light of the flashlight upwards, and when she saw the three words of Fairy Snake Residence, her expression showed irrepressible ecstasy, and she said with a smile: "I know, I know that I am not wrong, this is it!"

"Hey, what does the Immortal Snake Residence say?"

I asked curiously.

"Sure enough, here, the snake in the moon and the immortal are connected. I can use this to prove that I am not weaker than my brother, and I will find the gods before him!haha......"

She muttered to herself excitedly.

"Hey, can you interrupt? I want to know what this fairy snake dwelling is? With a fairy character, and it looks like the history is quite long, it shouldn't be simple. ”

I interrupted Lingqian's self-talk and asked.

"It is rumored that in the Ming Dynasty, there was a monk with considerable financial resources who wanted to seek immortal fate. But he visited many places but found nothing, and then he came to Taibai Mountain, wanting to use the blessing source of the world to find immortals. But I lived for more than half a year, and I prayed sincerely every day but still didn't have any eyebrows. Just when he was almost desperate, he had a strange dream in the middle of the night, in which someone who couldn't see clearly told him that a white snake was about to fall from the sky, and this white snake fell by the moonlight and was a fairy. Ask him to build a dojo cave in Taibai Mountain, and respectfully invite the white snake to come. When the monk woke up, he was immediately overjoyed, and exhausted his life's financial resources to mine a huge cave in the Taibai Mountain, which was named the Immortal Snake Residence. ”

"I see, but what about after that?

I asked with a nod.

"No one knows, there is no ending in the literature about this legend. But it is precisely because there is no ending that it is more curious and adds to the authenticity. It must be the moon snake that came by the moonlight, and now we can already confirm that the moon snake really exists, which indirectly shows that the story of the fairy snake house is true. Unexpectedly, now that I have seen the real Immortal Snake Residence, then the Moon Snake descending from the sky must be entrenched here, and it has probably obtained the fairy fate. When we catch it, it's like catching a fairy fate!"

Lingqian said with a smile, and at the same time raised his foot and wanted to go inside, but just after stepping over the two white pillars, I felt the surrounding qi change again, and suddenly pulled Lingqian back.

"What's wrong?"

She asked curiously.

"Something is wrong, retreat, quick!"

I pulled her back, and Lingqian looked at me strangely. At this moment, there was a sudden sound on the pillars on the left and right, and the sound of "click" was endless, and large pieces of stone were scattered down, and the two white snakes that were obviously carved up actually moved.

"How can it move? It's alive?"

I said in surprise.

Two long white jade-like snakes fell to the ground along the pillar, their eyes glowing bloody, staring at us deeply.

"It's not good to come, it's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's go out first. ”

I made up my mind to go, so I turned around and ran.

Unexpectedly, the two white snakes actually followed, and the speed of swimming on the ground was really not slow, and they chased after the two of us closely. “
