Chapter 359: A Great Snake
The temperature in the cave was getting lower and lower, the surrounding space was getting bigger and bigger, and the sound of running water inside was getting clearer and clearer.
Standing on the shore and looking at the dark river, the river inside was jet black, like a dark curtain and flowing ink in the night sky.
The water surface is five or six meters wide, and the other side is still a cave, and the entrance of the cave is comparable to a large palace, or the whole cave is very large except for the small entrance of the cave.
Long Zun stood by the river and observed for a while, and after not finding any danger, he took a few steps back and ran one by one, wanting to jump to the other side of the dark river.
Just as he was about to take off, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that somewhere on the surface of the dark river was a little higher than the surrounding water, and although it was all dark, it was darker than the surrounding water.
If you don't happen to see it, it's hard to be spotted, and even if you casually sweep your gaze, you will only think that it's the water in the dark river.
Long Zun retracted his intention to jump to the other side of the river, and carefully examined the black shadow that was one block above the water.
This look startled him.
The dark shadow in the water is different from the river, which is black because it is in the dim environment underground, but the thing in the water is obviously black, or something close to black.
Obviously, the thing thought that Long Zun hadn't noticed it, and was slowly swimming towards the shore where he was staying, just like a lion saw its prey and slowly approached it.
"Spirit beast!" Long Zun's first thought in his mind was this thing, when everyone thought that there was a spirit beast in this cave, even if he didn't see it, he quite believed this statement.
Long Zun found that his legs were a little weak, and even if a spirit beast was the weakest, it was not something he could deal with in a martial artist realm.
The lowest-grade spirit beasts are enough to be comparable to the great martial artist realm in the human race, and even stronger, after all, the body of the spirit beast is more powerful than the human being.
Fortunately, he didn't need to be entangled with the things in the water, he just needed to lead out of the cave, thinking of this, he slowly retreated.
Maybe the things in the water noticed that Long Zun retreated again, worried that the prey would run away, and obviously accelerated his speed, swimming faster and faster in the water, and a slight sound of water was already heard.
Seeing this situation, it would be a fool not to run again, Long Zun turned his head and fled towards the entrance of the cave where he came, and before leaving, he also broke off a piece of stone milk and smashed it into the water.
Pop! The stone milk fell into the water, making a splash, and then a big ugly head poked its head out of the water.
"You, it's a python!" Long Zun took a sip, and the girl fled out of the hole, her head was as big as a calf, and her body didn't need to think about it and knew that it couldn't be small.
As soon as he ran like this, the big head of the python jumped forward, opened its bloody mouth, and bit at Long Zun, who was running forward.
Long Zun could already smell the fishy stench in the snake's mouth, and the whole person was excited, and the speed under his feet became faster, and at the same time he shook off the python's big head.
Seeing that the prey had fled, the python did not chase it, but slowly retreated back into the water.
Long Zun, who escaped half the way, found that the python did not chase him, so he couldn't help but stop, listened for a while, and found that the python really did not chase him, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Such a big snake head is scary to think about, Long Zun has the heart to exit the cave and say to the people outside, whoever likes to come, he doesn't want to come again.
But when he thought of the fifteen Spiritual Qi Pills on his body, he was a little reluctant, in case the speed of the python was not as fast as his, these fifteen Spiritual Qi Pills were not the same as the ones he picked up for nothing.
He took out a pill of Qi Condensing Pill that he had refined himself from his body and ate it, suppressed his shock, hesitated for a moment, and finally gave up his plan to leave the cave like this, and walked back again.
This time he was prepared, picked up a few stones from the ground and held them in his hand, preparing to use them to lure the python away from the dark river.
When he was still seven or eight meters away from the dark river, he stopped and searched carefully in the dark river, wanting to see if the python was hiding in the nearby dark river.
After looking at it for a while, the water surface of the dark river was gentle, and there were no particularly obvious bulges.
Either the python has left, or the python has sunk to the bottom of the dark river.
Thinking about the first situation, it is unlikely, the snake's vision may not be very good, but the perception is very strong, especially walking near the dark river, there must be some vibration in the water, as long as the python does not go far, it is impossible not to know that someone is close to the dark river.
Long Zun cautiously approached the dark river, his eyes searched the surface of the dark river again, the effort paid off, and a back-like thing slowly appeared on the surface of the dark river, slowly rising on the water surface.
If you don't look closely, you'll think it's a dark river flowing through the water.
Long Zun picked up a stone in his hand, pinched it with two fingers, and threw it hard towards the surface of the dark river.
A sharp screech was heard, grazing the air and hitting a black object one piece above the surface of the dark river, followed by the sound of a stone hitting the iron plate.
Long Zun knew that it was a stone that hit the scales of the python, but thinking that the scales were so hard, under his hard blow, he could clearly feel that there was no harm to the python.
Worried that the python would pounce all at once, he didn't dare to stay where he was, and took seven or eight steps back in a row before standing still again.
As soon as the python's big snake head came out of the water, with a gust of wind, it bit over, and scared Long Zun four or five steps back before he felt safer.
In fact, the python's head only swooped down, and the place where he first stood was obviously lacking in strength any further, unless he crawled out of the water somewhat.
This time, Long Zun did not run away immediately, and for the first time he looked at the python's big head.
The python has a pair of triangular eyes, exuding a cold cold light, a tongue as thick as a thigh in its mouth, and a broken web-like python pattern on its forehead and nearby.
It's a pity that the python only shows its head on the water, and it is impossible to see how big the body is, but from the body attached to the head, it can be inferred that the body is almost as thick as the pillars outside the cave.
The python didn't move, and Long Zun felt a lot more at ease, at least he was able to accept such a big thing in his heart.
According to the previous agreement, Long Zun needed to get the big thing out of front of him, but he was also worried about whether he would escape from the cave if he really angered such a big guy.
The dark river was still several miles away from the mouth of the cave, and the snakes were always moving fast, and he was really worried that he would not be able to outrun the big python.
However, without waiting for him to think about it, it was obvious that the python wanted to treat him as a meal, and only then did one brain rush towards Long Zun, and a section of his body came out of the water.
Long Zun jumped up in fright, started in an instant, turned around and ran behind him, where could he care about leading this python out of the cave, and he only begged the python not to catch up with him.
