Chapter 1977: Snakes
Seeing this open space, those foreigners were naturally extremely excited. Especially along the way, they were all thirsty and hungry, and now when they saw such a big pond, they immediately ran to go to the pond to drink water.
However, as soon as they ran out, the big lord suddenly stopped them: "Come back, don't run around, there is something wrong with this clearing!"
The few people who ran out turned their heads and looked at the Great Lord in surprise, and everyone had doubts on their faces, not knowing what the Great Lord meant. An old man next to him also looked at the big lord in surprise, and said: "Great lord, this place has beautiful mountains and rivers, it looks very good, and there is not a single snake moult, it is much safer than the snake nest we walked through just now, there is no problem, right?"
"It's because there is not a single snake molt here, and that is the biggest problem!" The big lord looked around and said in a deep voice: "There were so many snake molts at that corner just now, but how come there is not even a single snake molt in this place, don't you think it's strange?
Everyone looked at each other, they hadn't thought of this question yet, and naturally they couldn't understand the reason.
"Also, we just walked all the way and saw so many snakes, and there must be a lot of snakes on this mountain. However, apart from the one or two snakes we just met, have you seen any other snakes?" the Great Lord said in a deep voice, "There are so many snakes in the area we just walked, and it is obviously a place where snakes gather. But don't you think it's strange that we haven't seen a snake when we come from there?"
These words made everyone's faces change slightly, and they all looked around vigilantly, and an old man said in a low voice: "Yes, this is quite strange, why did we only meet two snakes along the way?
"This mountain is very weird, and besides, there is such a powerful monster on the mountain, we must not take it lightly, and we must not run around casually. The big lord looked at the pond over there and said in a deep voice: "There may be some special places around here, so those snakes don't dare to come here at all, and there is not a single snake here." In this kind of place, it's best not to rush into, otherwise if we encounter any danger, it may not be too late to rescue!"
Everyone hurriedly nodded, and the words of the great lord made them all more vigilant around them.
The old man who knew Huaxia was eyes lit up, and suddenly pointed at Ye Qing and said to the big lord: "Great lord, why don't you let this person go to the pond to explore the way first, and by the way, see if there is any danger in this clearing." If there is no danger, we can get over. If there is danger, it is not our people who are in danger, isn't that a double benefit?"
When everyone heard the old man's words, their faces were full of approval, and of course they all agreed the most with letting Ye Qing go to explore the path first.
Ye Qing stood beside him, he could understand the old man's words, but he cursed the old man countless times in his heart. However, he still had to pretend that he didn't understand, otherwise it would be even more dangerous.
The big lord was very satisfied with the old man's suggestion, he nodded, and the old man understood, and immediately ordered Ye Qing to go to the pond to explore the way first.
Of course, Ye Qing was ten thousand reluctant in his heart, but in this case, he had no choice at all, so he could only walk slowly towards the pond. While he held the wood spirit in his hand, he also clutched the iron dagger tightly in the other, guarding against any danger that might occur.
The pond is quite far from this entrance, about three or four hundred meters away. Ye Qing walked very carefully, and the foreigners behind him did not urge Ye Qing at all because they were also paying attention to the situation around them. This distance, Ye Qing walked for about ten minutes before walking, and saw that the distance from the pond was less than twenty or thirty meters. At this moment, at the corner where they had just walked, there was a sudden sound of a sigh of soot. The sound was very loud, Ye Qing had already walked so far, but he could still hear it clearly.
Ye Qing hurriedly turned his head to look, only to see that those foreigners had already taken action, and two of them ran around the corner and looked outside, wanting to see what was going on outside. As soon as they glanced outside, they retreated from the corner at the same time, as if they had seen something most terrible, and each of them turned and ran to the side of the Great Lord with horror and shock on their faces.
Seeing the expressions and movements of these two people, the Great Lord was also full of surprise, he frowned tightly, and said in a deep voice, "What did you see?"
"Snakes!, so many snakes!" replied a man in a trembling voice.
"How many snakes?" everyone around exclaimed, and an old man hurriedly said, "How many snakes can there be?"
"Outside...... It's all snakes out there, and they're going to ...... Fill the road with ......" said another man: "Thousands of snakes, ...... rushing together"
Hearing that this man used a Yong word as an adjective, the others were also shocked. How many snakes must there be to use this word!
Hearing the movement here, Ye Qing's heart jumped, and his intuition told him that the situation was complicated. They had just walked through so many snake sheds, but they hadn't seen a single snake. And now that they had entered the clearing, thousands of snakes had poured out together, which made one wonder what was wrong with it.
Thinking of the look in the eyes of the snake when it left just now, Ye Qing suddenly realized in his heart that these snakes were all wise. When they passed by, the snakes had been hiding and not appearing. And when they reached the clearing, the snakes rushed out and rushed towards this side, obviously trying to surround them in the clearing!
Do these snakes even know how to invite the king into the urn? Also, what is in this clearing, and why do those snakes surround them?
Just when Ye Qing was surprised in his heart, there was a sudden strange sound from the pond behind him. Ye Qing was originally on high alert, but when he heard the sound here, he immediately turned his head to look, and just happened to see a water pattern in the pond, rolling towards the shore. Looking at the large water streaks, it looks like something huge at the bottom of the water is swimming towards the shore. Moreover, the water pattern is extremely long, so it can be seen that the length of the things under the water is also not.
At this time, even if Ye Qing was a fool, he knew that the things in this pond were definitely not simple. Therefore, without any hesitation, he hurriedly ran behind a huge rock next to him, avoiding this position of the first to bear the brunt.
The foreigners hadn't noticed what was going on here, and they were still paying attention to the situation around the corner. As the sound of Sissy Suo approached, a group of snakes suddenly appeared around the corner.
Seeing this group of snakes, those foreigners finally believed what those two people had just said. It's really a lot of snakes, thousands of snakes, all coming together. Because, not only did the snake occupy the road, but even the snake crawled on it, and it really came like a tide!
Seeing such a situation, several people who were afraid of snakes directly exclaimed. The others weren't too scared, but the situation made them pale. There are so many snakes that come like a tide, and if anyone falls into them, it will be a certain death. Even the Great Lord's face changed slightly at this moment, and he didn't dare to look at these snakes in the slightest!
The snakes rounded the corner and entered the valley like a tidal wave. There are a lot of snakes coming in, and the snakes behind them are still coming in, and it looks as if there is no end to it. It didn't take long for those snakes to occupy the area of more than ten meters around the corner, and they all held their heads high and spit out their cores, which made people feel frightened when they looked at it.
"How can there be so many snakes?"
"Oh my God, I've seen so many snakes for the first time in my life!"
"So many snakes, even if they are not poisonous, they can bite us to death!"
"What now? What now?"
These foreigners were all panicked, even though they were strong, but this situation also made them panic. In fact, if they really met a lot of masters to besiege them, they wouldn't have been so panicked. However, when so many snakes suddenly rushed out, the situation was different, after all, people have a congenital fear of snakes!
"Don't panic, everyone!" the Great Lord shouted in a deep voice, "Although these snakes are numerous, they are definitely not as fast as us. Let's get out of this range now, they won't be able to catch up with us!"
Hearing the words of the Great Lord, everyone came back to their senses. But isn't it, at this time, what are you confronting these snakes, why don't you run away and stay here and wait for death?
"Yes, yes, run, run!" an old man said hurriedly: "That son walked so far just now, and he didn't encounter any danger, it's okay in this clearing, let's ......"
The old man turned his head to look, but was surprised to find that Ye Qing was no longer by the pond. He couldn't help but be stunned, and the words that followed suddenly came out.
"Huh, where was that?" asked a foreigner, surprised.
"Over there! over there!" A sharp-eyed man had already noticed Ye Qing hiding behind the boulder, pointed at Ye Qing and shouted.
"Damn, what is he doing in that place?" another scolded.
"This son is not honest, kill him first!" another shouted.
Among the crowd, only the Great Lord did not speak, and he stared straight at the surface of the pond. Because, he had already seen the ripple of water that was rapidly approaching the shore. The water ripples are very large, and the waves on both sides are separated, as if some behemoth is about to come out of the water!
