Chapter 37: Helping
Ding Xiao didn't pay attention to this cry, listening to the sound should have come from the woods on the mountain, presumably the sound from the giant snake was too harsh, so it startled them, otherwise it would be impossible for them to come out during the day, but the valley was full of fog, and he couldn't see anything clearly, and Ding Xiao didn't know where those night monkey beasts were now.
"Hiss~", the speed of the red-shaped giant snake became faster and faster, wanting to overtake him from Ding Xiao's side, and then use its huge body to surround him in the middle and swallow him in one gulp.
Ding Xiao could also feel the abnormality of the giant snake behind him, so he hurriedly sped up, relying on his memories of the valley in the past, and quickly jumped forward.
The red serpent gave hot pursuit, and everywhere it passed, all the flowers and weeds were pressed into the dirt, leaving a deep trace.
As the sun rose, the fog in the valley dissipated, Ding Xiao looked back at the giant snake that was still chasing him, and smiled coldly at the corner of his mouth, and in front of him was the place where the giant snake was buried.
"Hiss~", the red-shaped giant snake suddenly increased its speed, and before Ding Xiao could react, the giant snake had already appeared in front of Ding Xiao, and its huge body completely blocked the road in front of him, seeing this, Ding Xiao hurriedly stopped, took a few steps back, held the scimitar in his hand, and stared at the giant snake with cold light in his eyes.
The red-shaped giant snake's mid-air head also looked at Ding Xiao below, but it was not in a hurry to attack, perhaps because of the trauma it had just received, so that it did not dare to attack rashly.
Ding Xiao half-arched his body, held the scimitar in front of his chest, beware of the sudden attack of the giant snake, and thought to himself: "This giant snake's self-healing ability is too strong, ordinary knife wounds can heal quickly, only by smashing its head, maybe you can kill it."
"Since that's the case, let's see if it's your hard skin, or if my knife is sharp~", Ding Xiao shouted, jumped up in an instant, and stabbed again towards the top of the red giant snake's head.
The red-shaped giant snake did not rush towards it this time, only to see it swing its tail rapidly, and in an instant, the tail was like lightning, slamming Ding Xiao who came with a knife to the ground, and before Ding Xiao stood up, the red-shaped giant snake had already surrounded him with a huge body, and the sound of "hiss~" sounded.
Ding Xiao stood up with difficulty, looking at the body of the giant snake that was surrounding and exuding the smell of blood, if he wanted to escape at this moment, he was afraid that there was no chance.
"Are you really going to die here?", Ding Xiao looked up at the giant snake staring at him in mid-air, and the hand holding the scimitar couldn't stop shaking.
The red-shaped giant snake seemed to be eager to enjoy its prey, "hiss~" with a sound, and then opened its bloody mouth to swallow Ding Xiao under him.
Just when Ding Xiao felt that he was certain to die, he only heard a "bang", and the rapidly flying stone smashed into the head of the red-shaped giant snake, and then with a "boom", the body of the giant snake fell to the ground, taking this opportunity, Ding Xiao hurriedly jumped out of the encirclement of the giant snake.
"Wow~Wow"
Ding Xiao hurriedly followed the sound, and the black shadow in the mist gradually became clear in his eyes, only to see a burly night monkey beast as tall as two adults appear in front of him, baring its teeth and roaring in a low voice, walking towards him,
Seeing this situation, Ding Xiao couldn't help but clench his scimitar, and cold sweat broke out from his forehead, this night monkey beast has never seen it before, in order to deal with this giant snake, it has consumed all its strength, if this night monkey beast attacks itself again, it is destined to die today.
"Hiss~", the stunned red-shaped giant snake struggled to get up, ignoring Ding Xiao, but looked at the night monkey beast below fiercely.
The night monkey seemed to be unafraid of the red serpent's warning, picked up the bloodstained stone, jumped to its feet, and slammed it into the serpent's head with a "whoosh" cry.
"Be careful," Ding Xiao shouted.
But it was still a step too late, and at the moment when the night monkey beast jumped up, the red giant snake hurriedly contracted its body and entangled the night monkey beast to death, and the huge winding force made the night monkey beast unable to move.
The night monkey beast struggled hard, and kept hitting the body of the red giant snake with the stone in its hand, but the giant snake kept shrinking its body with its armor-like skin, trying to strangle the night monkey beast to death.
At this time, Ding Xiao did not hesitate, jumped up, and swung towards the head of the red-shaped giant snake, although he didn't know what the situation was now, but if it wasn't for this night monkey beast to save him just now, I'm afraid he would have been swallowed by this giant snake.
Looking at Ding Xiao who was impacting, the red-shaped giant snake swung its head, trying to knock him away, Ding Xiao also understood the intention of this giant snake, so he measured his body and dodged the attack of the giant snake, and violently swung the scimitar and plunged it into its throat again.
The red-shaped giant snake felt a sharp pain, and screamed "hiss~", and the body of the night monkey beast also loosened.
Seeing this opportunity, the night monkey beast hurriedly reached out and grabbed the throat of the red-shaped giant snake, and the stone in its hand smashed on its head with a "bang".
However, the night monkey beast did not give it a chance, pressed its head to the ground, and the stone in its hand kept smashing into the head of the giant snake, Ding Xiao stayed by the side and watched, until the giant snake lay on the ground and no longer swung, the night monkey beast stopped, got up and said "whoop ~ woo" in the distance, and then a group of black shadows rushed here.
"Is it a person?", Ding Xiao suddenly exclaimed, he quietly looked ahead, until the figure appeared clearly in front of him, it was a girl, I saw her dressed in gray coarse linen, her hair wrapped in vines, and her bare feet, jumping towards here with the night monkey herd.
"Woo~Woo, Whoa~Woo", the night monkey beast beside him roared towards the group of night monkey beasts, and the group of night monkey beasts surrounded the red-shaped giant snake, and together they lifted the giant snake and walked towards the place where they had come before.
Before Ding Xiao understood what was going on, he saw the girl waving her hand at Ding Xiao, as if she wanted to take him somewhere. Although Ding Xiao had doubts, he still hurriedly chased in the direction where the girl jumped.
After a short time, the girl stopped, pointed to the abyss beneath her feet, and then hurriedly turned and jumped in the direction of the night monkey herd.
Although Ding Xiao was puzzled, he still didn't ask much, because he understood that this girl didn't seem to understand human language.
"Is there something down here?", Ding Xiao stared at the abyss under his feet and whispered. Then he turned his head to look at the cliffs around him, and he didn't know how deep it was down, because above him, there was a hundred-foot-high cliff of Monkey Forest Mountain.
This place is lower than the valley, it is unusually quiet below, there is no light in sight, and the cold wind blows out from it from time to time, making Ding Xiao shiver, if he goes in, I am afraid that there is no chance of survival.
"Since you brought me here, I'll go down and see what's there."
