Chapter 236: Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
After all, this is a gloomy and gloomy prison place, and if you say that there are rats, cockroaches, and bed bugs, then Cheng Jinzhi will admit it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
But she never imagined that a living snake would appear in her cell!
And it appeared silently in the dead of night, which was really shocking, caught off guard, and it was rare not to be scared to death alive, let alone fight it for 300 rounds in order to save himself.
If she hadn't been woken up by Concubine Jing's singing just now, she would have been bitten hard by this hideous-looking poisonous tongue by now, and she would have died in her sleep for no apparent reason.
"You... Don't come here... My flesh is sour and old, you can't bite at all, so don't waste your venom. ”
Cheng Jinzhi gave himself courage while speaking, and at the same time stepped back with small steps, his eyes glanced around, but he found that there was no weapon that could suppress the snake at all.
Moreover, the speed of the snake attack is extremely fast, even if he is holding a sword, if he does not know martial arts and is not agile enough, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, which is still a dead end.
"Are these people all asleep, human lives are at stake, why haven't they come to save me until now?"
Cheng Jinzhi bit his lower lip and quickly glanced out of the door, and hurriedly moved his gaze back to the snake, for fear that he would be attacked by it if he was not careful, and his hands and feet could not help but begin to weaken.
"Help, there's a snake, help!"
Seeing that the rescuers had not come for a long time, Cheng Jinzhi shouted again at the top of his throat, and his heart was already anxious.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the snake seemed to be frightened by Cheng Jinzhi's shout, and suddenly bowed down and made an attack posture.
Cheng Jinzhi was already leaning against the wall at this moment, and there was a cold sweat on her forehead, she slowly turned sideways, swallowed a mouthful of saliva in horror, her eyes wandered, and she had to grab the lid of the food box closest to her on the table to defend herself.
As soon as he made up in his mind, he slapped the snake to the ground with extreme speed, and when he bravely smashed the snake's head to pieces with the lid of the box, the snake had already turned sideways, and with a cold light flashing in his eyes, he rushed up mercilessly.
"Shoot you, shoot you!"
It is said that the snake is beaten seven inches, but Cheng Jinzhi's mind was already blank at this time, so he had to use his hands and feet at the same time, dancing with his hands and feet closed, holding the lid of the food box with his eyes closed, waving it like a gust of wind.
But at the same time, I suddenly heard a flute sound with an extremely strange sound in my ears, as if there was a magic barrier, and a circle circled from somewhere not far away, fluctuating and breathtaking.
Seeing that she had been shaking for a long time, and that her hands were sore, but she did not feel attacked by anything, she stopped the movement in her hand and opened her eyes, only to see that the snake had lost interest in her, and was twisting out of the wooden fence of the prison door, and soon disappeared into the darkness ahead.
"It's... What's going on?"
Cheng Jinzhi froze in place, looking at everything that was happening in front of him in a bit of a daze, his heart was still pounding, obviously he hadn't reacted from such a rapid change before and after.
The situation was critical just now, and the snake had obviously launched an attack on itself, but why did it suddenly turn around and run away now? Could it be that it was really frightened by its almost crazy behavior just now, and retreated?
After a while, Jin Zhi quickly denied this idea, and she knew very well in her heart that the reason why the snake suddenly stopped attacking herself must be because of the mysterious and strange flute sound.
"What kind of flute is this? Could it be that there is a big snake spirit hidden here, so playing the flute twice is like summoning a spirit, and the little brother is obediently called away?"
Cheng Jinzhi stood by the door and thought nervously, but he immediately threw this unsound idea into his mind.
She took a deep breath, and when the turmoil in her heart slowly returned to calm, the whole person calmed down, her thoughts began to be clear and clear, and the expression on her face became solemn and stern.
The prison in front of me seems dark and deep, lifeless, but it hides too many secrets.
Everyone here makes Cheng Jinzhi feel mysterious, including Jing Concubine, and even more including the person who played the flute to relieve himself.
But as far as she could see, all she could see was a lifeless dead silence, and she couldn't see any clues.
There is also the snake that suddenly appeared just now, and now in Cheng Jinzhi's opinion, it is not an accidental disaster, it is simply someone who deliberately wants his own life.
And it is too strange that he shouted for help three or four times, but no one came to help.
Everything seems to have been designed, and it is all under the control of one person.
If anyone wants their own life the most at this time, I am afraid that the only queen who is now detained in the Zhenghe Palace is the queen.
Thinking of this, Cheng Jinzhi pursed the corners of her lips, her face tightened, and she only felt an incomparably heavy haze in her heart, which made her a little breathless, and even more lingering.
She was just framed and imprisoned before, and then she was finally exonerated and acquitted, and now she almost died, I don't know what kind of life and death crisis she will face next?
Cheng Jinzhi's temperament has always been straightforward, and he is not the kind of sophisticated person in the city, so he never likes to hurt people with secret arrows behind his back and play some tricks.
For her, even if she was facing a flood beast in front of her, it was not as terrifying as being put in the back by someone with a cold arrow.
Although it is also dangerous, this feeling is more intuitive, and you can at least face it openly, instead of being vigilant everywhere with a sense of fear, and always worrying that you will fall into the trap set by the traitor.
It was only at this time that there was a belated sound of eager footsteps outside, and Cheng Jinzhi raised his eyes to see that it was the guards on duty in the prison today.
"If I waited for you to come to save me, I would have stopped eating a long time ago, and I was obviously standing up to enter the Nine Shadows Terrace, but I would have to lie down and go out at that time. ”
Cheng Jinzhi thought silently, seeing that they were sleepy-eyed and sluggish, as if they had just woken up and didn't seem to have slept enough, he suddenly felt very unhappy, and rolled his eyes several times in a row.
It's just that now that the snake has disappeared, fortunately she is not injured, and it is useless for her to complain and scold people, and it is a waste of energy.
Besides, she is not in the mood to scold people at all now, she just wants to quickly find Jing Concubine to ask the questions in her heart, and leave this strange place that makes her fearful, but can be described as a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.
As for the person who came to the rescue with the flute, although she was grateful, curious and puzzled, she could not find it without any clues.
She didn't even know if this person was a prisoner here, or a palace man or guard who was hiding in the shadows and didn't want to show his face......
