Kill the Snake (10,000)

The stories of emperors and generals, talented and beautiful women, you have heard a lot. Those feelings and righteousness, kindness and love, love and love, and I are all magnificent and inexplicable.

That's not the color of the world at all, the world, it's just a face that has been wiped off the fat powder. - "Chu Storyteller"

It has been raining continuously for half a month, and the sky seems to be leaking.

But also, Yunzhou is hot and rainy all year round, and the rainfall these days is nothing to say.

Tall trees held up inky clouds in mid-air, and beyond the dark clouds was a gray sky.

The sound of raindrops crackling on the leaves of the trees and on the water of a small pond nearby was disturbing.

Occasionally, a chirping bird is heard, and if you look past, you will see a bird with its whole body spread its wings and glide silently into the darkness of the forest.

The only light in heaven and earth was the bonfire, by which the young man of the caravan played with his beloved huqin.

In such weather, the strings are always soaking wet, and when they are played, they "boom" like knocking on a hard bang.

The young man played the tune of the Yunzhou region, desolate and cold, and there was a slight trilling in the sound of the piano.

Far away from the caravan, a young man sat under the canopy, hugged his knees and listened quietly, the water drops on the canopy hit his eyelashes, he closed his eyes slightly, and did not open them for a long time.

"Take a bite?" Someone handed him the smoke pot on the side.

The young man opened his eyes and saw the old burnt face.

He knew that it was Wang Lie, the caravan's deputy, a merchant from Wanzhou.

The young man smiled and shook his head: "I don't smoke dry tobacco. ”

"If you take the road of cloud wilderness, if you don't rely on this mouth, you may have dampness in the future."

Wang Lie no longer persuaded him, and sat cross-legged beside the young man.

Wang Lie has been running caravans for many years, from Wanzhou to Yunzhou, he has been running on this road for more than 20 years, and he is a veteran among them.

Legend has it that at the beginning of the opening of heaven and earth, the gods set up the sea and land and demarcated the territory of Jiuzhou, but from the first dynasty to the current Great Zhou Dynasty, but I have never heard of any dynasty that can set up the government in the two continents of Yunlei in the Western Continent.

In the eyes of the people of the Eastern Continent, the two continents of the Western Continent are the outer places where miasma is full of poisonous insects, and it is more remote and desolate than the two continents of Hanliang, but they do not know that these two continents are rich in products and prosperous in the Eastern Continent, but they are sparsely populated.

And the cloud wilderness that Wang Lie and others said was even more remote in Yunzhou, except for some aboriginal witches who were strong in their own skills, no one dared to set foot in this land.

But since ancient times, the poor mountains and bad waters are precious, just like the thunder-eyed snake that is a specialty of the Thunder Eye Mountains, Yunzhou specializes in a kind of beads that repel poison, the surface of the beads is brown and yellow, but there is one in the lobby, and the whole family is not harassed by snakes and insects, known as "gentian".

There is also a small golden snake with a thin rope that is generally less than half a foot long, and the jewelry and jade are sealed in a box, which can not die for decades, but if a thief opens the box without a specific medicine in his hand, he will definitely be bitten by the snake and will not live for half a day.

However, the snake scales of this poisonous snake are ground into powder, and under the water and swallowing, it is said that it can cure all kinds of poisons and diseases, and has the ability to regenerate white bones, known as "golden scales".

Gentian gold scales, in the Wanzhou market are extremely expensive treasures, often priceless, so it also attracts some people who do not want to go deep into Yunzhou to enter the cloud wilderness, with Wanzhou's silk and fine iron to exchange these two things, back and forth, often more than a hundred times the profit.

Gradually, this road is called the "Golden Cloud Wilderness", there are not many caravans that dare to go to the Cloud Wilderness, Wang Lie is still a little famous on this road, after all, he has walked for half his life.

Wang Lie was a little curious about this young man at this time.

They had met halfway, when the young man had trekked alone through knee-deep mud with a black horse, and the saddle consisted only of a long, black-sheathed spear, except for simple luggage.

After walking in the cloud wilderness for so many years, it was the first time that Wang Lie had seen someone break into this reckless land alone.

It was surprising that he met such a large caravan of them on the road, and the young man had no intention of asking for help, and when Wang Lie called out to him, he turned back in the distance, showed a clean and beautiful tooth and smiled, and was about to turn around and continue to move forward.

And Wang Lie clearly knew that the young man was walking a dead end, as long as he walked five miles down, the heavy mud would sink into his chest, and the gods would not be able to save him at that time.

In the early years, a few of the guys who went to the cloud wilderness with Wang Lie died there, watching the people and horses sink together, and the final result was just rotting into white bones and sinking under the mire, and they would never see the sun again.

There is an unwritten rule that people who walk in the wilderness do not bring people with them.

The road to the aboriginal Wumin tribe through this barren land is the golden road for the caravan to make money, and bringing the living people is like teaching others a skill, and others also know the road, and the capital to eat by themselves will be gone in the future.

However, Wang Lie rarely hesitated that day, but still stopped the young man and promised to take him for a ride until he crossed this forest.

He can't say why, probably he likes young people's smiles, clean and immaculate.

The young man laughed, and the surroundings seemed to be bright, and there was a feeling of a flash of sunshine.

"I see that you are also like the son of a rich family, running into this deep mountain and wilderness, not afraid of losing your life?"

Wang Lie sat down beside the young man, groping for flint velvet in his arms.

"I look like the son of a rich man?"

The young man was slightly stunned, as if it was the first time someone had said this, and he laughed for a long time.

"The son of a rich family, I've seen it, the city is deep, and he doesn't show his bottom, so it's usually best to talk, but when he asks him how much money he has, he just laughs, and he doesn't let out a fart."

Wang Lie rubbed the flint in his hand, lit the tobacco, and glanced at the young man again.

"That's right! That's what you are. ”

The young man still laughed silently.

Wang Lie looked at his face and realized that he might not be so young anymore.

That face was a faint copper color from the sun, with traces left by wind and frost, but the smile was still as clear as a child who had never grown up.

"By the way, I've always wanted to ask, why haven't we met other caravans in the past two days, this road is really deserted." The young man said.

"Yunzhou is a barbarian land, and the place we are going to is called Yunhuang, which is an even more barbaric place.

Legend has it that it is a ghost guarding the door, running this road, it is a life-saving business, nine deaths, so many people come in and can get out alive and a few more, if it is not for the family owes money and needs money urgently, who will come? ”

Wang Lie took a deep sip of the smoke pot, letting the spicy smoke roll in his lungs a few times, and then a cyan smoke ring sprayed out faintly.

I haven't been sunny for so long, my clothes are always damp, my lungs seem to be filled with water, and my breathing is getting heavier and heavier.

"You owe a lot of money at home? Or is there an urgent need for money? Wang Lie smiled, revealing his two smoky yellow front teeth, which was quite obscene.

"Hehe, there is also a gold hole, life and death win or lose in the moment of opening the cards, then the taste is absolute, I am losing hard.

To say that two years ago, I still had a family fund of tens of thousands of gold baht, but now if I don't pay back seventy or eighty gold baht a month, I will be accused in the government. Hero's end, hero's end. ”

Wang Lie is talking about gambling, the Great Zhou has a clear law on gambling, of which the "Zhou Law" is strictly forbidden to gamble, but although Wanzhou has a capital but is not subject to the control of the imperial capital Tianyuan City, the street openly set up gambling houses, sometimes a thousand gold, overnight rich and poor, is worthy of the name of the "gold cave".

"Seventy or eighty, that's many...... the young man looked lonely and sighed when he heard it, and he noticed that Wang Lie's eyes were rolling and looking him up and down, especially on the skin around his waist for a while.

"I've never seen that much money in half my life."

The young man hurriedly smiled and waved his hand, and then diverted the conversation, "What did you just say, 'ghost watching'?"

"I said you were the son of a rich family, don't hide it, I'm poor now, but I was also wide at the beginning, and I was a serious man, can I still rob you?"

Wang Lie smiled wryly, took another deep puff of dry smoke, was quiet for a while, and raised his head to the sky and sprayed out.

The puff of smoke dispersed, and Qi Lie's obscene smiling face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a slightly palpitating thoughtful look.

"Guess how old I am?" The young man hesitated slightly, and looked at Wang Lie's thin face, as if a thin knife had carved those wrinkles deep into his face.

"Almost sixty?"

"Forty in two months," Wang Lie knocked on the cigarette pouch and spit out a mouthful of yellowish sticky phlegm from his mouth.

"The miasma on the road of the clouds and wilderness is life-threatening. After walking for so many years, it is a blessing that I did not kill the poisonous insects and scorpions. Don't look at this forest, if you hadn't met us, you would have died a long time ago, there are no less than a thousand things in this forest that can kill you, and if you are in the Gu, you will not be able to die. ”

"Gu?"

"It's Gu, haven't you heard of it?" Wang Lie grinned, "Witch people's stuff." Gu, it's a resentful insect, it's actually a bug, but it's a dead insect, I can't tell it, but if it's sticky, it's better to live than to die. ”

The young man shook his head: "I don't understand. ”

"Wu Min's stuff, how can it be so easy to understand? But I do know one thing, the simplest Gu is to take a jar, seal five kinds of things in it: wolf scorpion, tabby centipede, green snake, flower-clothed spider and fire toad, and bury them in the soil on the day when the sun is strongest every year.

These five poisons had no food, so they had to kill each other, and when they came out of the altar the next year, only the fiercest one remained, and the rest was eaten by it.

This last poison was dried in the sun, ground into powder, and then cursed, it was the Five Poison Gu.

If you fall on a person, that person will not escape the control of the witches. ”

"Isn't that poisoning?"

"Poisoning, it's just a death, if you fall into the Gu, it's not so easy,"

Wang Lie smoked a cigarette pouch, "Gu is a resentful insect, buried in the ground for a year, biting all the remaining poisonous insects to survive, and the poisonous insects themselves complain."

Otherwise, you think, even if you eat everything else, how can it survive for a year?

Haven't you endured to bite someone for revenge?

In fact, when it came out of the ground, the poisonous insect was already half dead and half alive, and it was the resentment that supported it. This kind of worm can't die when ground into powder, and if you eat it, those worm powder will be alive in the human stomach and swim into the blood all over your body. ”

"It's all ground, will it still be alive?"

"Don't believe me, do you?" Wang Lie squinted at him, "This is Yunzhou, what is impossible elsewhere, it is possible here." You don't even believe in Gu, and you've never heard of ghouls, have you? ”

"Lao Wang, don't talk nonsense," a hoarse voice sounded in the distance, with a quiet coercion, "You are also an old man who runs this road, and you know how to scare your brothers if you can't control the wind on your mouth." ”

The young man looked up and saw a sturdy man on the other side of the campfire casting a cold gaze.

It was Lao Peng, the leader of the caravan, and his age could not be seen from that swarthy face, but his sturdy figure and the cocoons on his hands faintly told him of his extraordinary experience.

Lao Peng tied a green cloth belt around his waist to tie the cowhide soft armor on his body, and a strangely shaped knife was hung on his belt.

The bonfire illuminated his face cloudy, and his bearded chin glowed with a grim blue light.

"It's all gossip on the road, talk about what you're afraid of, dare to come to Yunhuang, which brother doesn't have the courage to do so?"

Wang Lie nodded with a smile, and then turned to ask the young man who played the piano over there.

"Isn't it,?" Wang Lie is a little afraid of Lao Peng, everyone can see it, but it is not strange.

The strange thing is that Lao Peng ran away for the first time, so he hired Wang Lie to live the map.

Lao Peng is very famous in this business, but few people can clearly explain what he used to do.

The young man who was called a dog smiled and smiled, and he didn't have the heart to mix in and ask for it.

The sound of the piano stopped, and for a while the sound of raindrops became more and more obvious, and it seemed to be endless.

"Go to bed early, I will go to Daze tomorrow night, and there are still more than thirty miles to go."

Old Peng said in a low voice, and went up to add a few pieces of wood to the bonfire, and the moist firewood crackled in the fire, and clumps of sparks rose up.

It is common sense to go out, and if the bonfire is not extinguished at night, the insects and snakes will not dare to approach.

Wang Lie and the young man shared a canopy, and the two of them groped their way to lie down.

Wang Lie took a puff of cigarette, and then reluctantly spit it out.

The young man beside him was silent, as if he had fallen asleep as soon as his head fell on the pillow, but he still had the spear in his arms when he slept.

Wang Lie liked this young man more and more, he had the heaviest smell of smoke, and few people did not show the slightest disgust at it.

"After all, why did you come to Yunzhou?"

Wang Lie asked in a low voice.

The young man was silent for a while, turned his head, Wang Lie was slightly stunned, and found that he had never fallen asleep at all, his eyes were very bright, but they were not pressing, like moonlight in the water, but there was great sorrow in them.

"I'm going to hunt down the poison dragon."

"Huh? It was in the northernmost swamp of the Cloud Wilderness, and sometimes it would take one or two to meet if luck was good. Do you want to kill it and sell it to Wanzhou for money? ”

"No, I'm going to use its snake scales to save people, and I need three or five to say the least, and I don't have the money and can't buy them, so I want to hunt and kill them myself!"

"This is true, the poisonous dragon is now considered to be priceless in Wanzhou, I don't know how many people want to buy it with money, but only one or two a year have gone into the pockets of those powerful people!"

"Ordinary people can't buy it at all, and besides, it's a fool's dream that you need three or five, and the ghost swamp of the poisonous dragon has to pass through how many miasma and poisonous snakes are rampant to get there.

Along the way, there are countless kinds of pythons, spiders, centipedes, scorpions, and highly poisonous things, and they are still traveling in groups, except for the locals, no one can get by. Where do you want to go? ”

The young man nodded earnestly, "Where am I going, I must bring back the poisonous dragon." ”

Wang Lie snorted disdainfully, he felt that this young man was just a fantasy, and he didn't understand the sinister nature of this barbarian land.

"It's all a place that requires human life, why can't you think about it at a young age, and you have to plunge into that kind of death with one heart. I don't know how many people have seen go in with confidence, but do you know how many people came out alive? ”

"How many?" The young man chuckled softly.

"Not a single one! It's all buried in those swamps, and they have become fertilizer for those poisons! Wang Lie waved his hand and said.

"Even if I die, I'm going to go, as long as I can bring out the poisonous dragon, I can be blind."

Wang Lie's eyes widened and he looked at him fiercely, "You must go?" Even if you know that you will die for a lifetime? Save who you are, it's worth it! ”

"Must go!" The young man's voice gradually lowered, but it was extremely firm, "I have only one wish left, which is to bring back the poisonous dragon and save my teacher!" ”

"I haven't asked you what your name is."

"A thousand troops."

The whole camp fell silent in the night.

In the distance, in the trees, the wrist-thick python watched silently like a sculpture for a moment, and slid away silently.

It was as if some animal in the distance had run through the bushes, startled the sleeping birds, and hovered in mid-air.

"Hey, hey, go to the mountains and the sea with bare feet, step on a hole in the mountains, wash your mud feet when you encounter water, and don't look back when you hit the zenith! Hey, hey! ”

The loud song of the dog resounded in the sky, and the joy was overflowing.

Everyone in the caravan was beaming, and it was a blessing in heaven.

I thought that this heavy rain was going to fall through the whole rainy season, but who knew that when I fell asleep last night, it was still full of thick clouds, and when I woke up this morning, I saw ten thousand rays of sunshine shining through the cracks in the clouds.

The weather is a good sign, it will not be too hard to walk, and it is not easy to get lost.

After this forest, you will arrive at Daze, and the only tribe on Daze is Daze Village, which is a village close to Daze, which is the first stop on the Yunhuang Road.

The caravan from Wanzhou likes to deal with the Wumin of Daze Village, because Daze Village is the only way to go deep into the road of the Cloud Wilderness, and the Wumin have seen a lot of outsiders, so they are more civilized, and there are a few people who can speak the official dialect of the Eastern Continent, so they can communicate a little easier.

This caravan was not small, with more than 80 mules and horses, of which 40 were cargo, and the remaining 40 were carrying food, water, medicine and self-defense.

The mighty team was half a mile long, Wang Lie was at the front with a cow bone whistle in his mouth, and Lao Peng was dragging a healthy horse at the end, also holding a cow bone whistle.

The leader and the deputy leader relied on the sharp "shhh

In such a dense forest, there were no people to be seen at a few paces, only clumps of large fern leaves and shrubs, and in every direction it seemed to be green.

Wang Lie hung his son on a large male mule, and several strong brothers followed his instructions and cut away a few bushes with mountain knives, and the originally uninhabited rainforest actually showed a path that travelers had stepped on.

Wang Lie was triumphant, humming and chirping in an unknown tune, and his two sparse eight-character eyebrows were about to fly into the sky.

There was a crackling sound, and the dog cut off a huge fern leaf.

The fresh rain on the leaves was sprinkled on the heads and faces, and they were all poured on the heads of the thousand troops.

Qianjun smiled slightly and did not dodge, looked up at the rainbow left by the mist in the air, let go of his chest and took a long breath.

"It's a good place." Qianjun ran to Wang Lie's side with his dark horse and walked side by side with him.

"Why do you sound so spooky?"

"Don't you understand this truth when you look at people's hearts?" Wang Lie shook his head, "The section of Daze Village is still under the jurisdiction of Yunzhou, and going further inside is a matter of death." ”

"Isn't it a life of death to this hellish place?" Among the men who opened the way, a man nicknamed Stone turned his head and asked.

"Daze Village is a rest, if you really want to get good goods, you still have to go deep into the forest and go to deeper places." Wang Lie spit out the clouds and spitted out the mist, and ripped off his cheeks.

"We like to say that poisonous snakes snatch gold pearls from their mouths, and the more dangerous the place, the more opportunities there are to make money. Where there are good mountains and rivers and women, they have long been crowded, even if there is an opportunity to make money, can we still talk about it? But the more evil and dangerous it is, and the place where others dare not go, hehe, is the treasure land where we make a fortune. ”

"Then what is the depths of the Cloud Desolation?" Qianjun asked curiously.

Wang Lie glanced at Qianjun with squinted eyes, and saw his clear and bright eyes, as if a student was asking for advice from a teacher, so clean that there was no flaw.

"Okay, if you meet me, even if you have this fate, I'll tell you about the road of Yunhuang, and make a lot of money in the future, but remember to share with me."

Wang Lie pouted and spat out a smoke ring, waiting for a group of young men to come to him.

Wang Lie does like to brag, but the things in his mouth are not completely chasing after the wind.

The young men like to hear him talk about the things on the road of Yunhuang, first, it is interesting, and second, one day he will be able to walk in Yunhuang, and what Wang Lie said may be useful.

"The witch people in the depths of the cloud wilderness are divided into four mountains, Daze Mountain, Snake King Mountain, Heishui Mountain, and Poison Dragon Mountain. The witches belong to a big mountain, which is similar to what we call a tribe.

Aren't there several tribes of the steppe people of the Hokuriku?

The witch people call the tribe the mountain.

Osawa Village belongs to Daze Mountain, and from Daze Mountain to the south, it is the power of Dazeshan.

There are more than a dozen villages and towns of all sizes, adding up to less than 10,000 people.

Between Daze Mountain and Heishui Mountain, it is the place of Snake King Mountain, if you want to buy "gentian", you have to find Snake King Mountain, where the witch people who raise snakes, the house is full of snakes, I didn't know this section when I was young, I spent a summer in a town in Snake King Mountain, and a little woman of the witch people fell in love with me......"

There was a burst of laughter from the guys around.

"Laughing at what?" Wang Lie glared, "When I was young, it was also a well-known handsome offspring in ten miles and eight towns.

It's just that now you grandsons have compared me to me, and now it's not the same.

You haven't touched the witch woman, smirk, that's called a charming, tender and tender, moist, the girl in the building can't compare to them. ”

"Since it's so good, Lao Wang, why don't you just stay there and be your son-in-law, what are we afraid of when we take the road of Yunhuang now, this radius of 100 miles is Lao Wang's territory, isn't it?"

A guy named Lao Lu laughed loudly, revealing mockery.

Lao Lu was an old guy who walked the road of Yunhuang with Wang Lie at the beginning, and he didn't care about the majesty of him, the deputy leader of the caravan, but few of the other guys were really afraid of Wang Lie.

Except for Lao Peng's men, the rest of the caravan was found by Wang Lie, even if they were not born and died together back then, they were introduced by friends.

The boys knew more about him than the other.

"Lao Lu, don't argue," the dog likes Wang Lie's story, "Listen to Lao Wang, what happened later?" ”

"What can you do, don't you just sleep?" Wang Lie smacked his lips, as if he was still nostalgic for the fragrance of the little witch.

"But the place in Snake King Mountain is really hot, and it's so hot in summer that people want to peel off their skins.

I said I was leaving, and the little woman pestered me, saying there was a way to keep me from being hot. Guess what? ”

The lads all shook their heads. Yunzhou is hot and rainy all year round, and it is impossible to build any ice cellars, and it is indeed difficult to keep it hot in summer.

"Snakes! The little woman didn't know from which corner of the house, so she casually called out a big snake as thick as my waist, saying that it was cold on the snake's body, and she slept with the snake in summer to ensure that it was cool. At that time, I was so scared that I wanted to run, but the woman said that it was okay, and she ran up naked and hugged the snake, and let the snake wrap around her, saying that the snake was obedient and would never eat people. ”

Wang Lie shook his head vigorously, as if he was still a little afraid, "I didn't dare to stay anymore, so I ran back with the caravan." Fortunately, that little woman was a little interesting to me, not only did she not fall into the Gu, but also gave me ten "gentians", and my little belongings were all saved from that transaction. ”

Speaking of this, he sighed again: "It's been more than ten years, I don't know how the little woman is now, and sometimes, I still miss her." ”

"Bang" interrupted Wang Lie's melancholy.

Just by the sound, I could tell that it was a very strong bowstring, which snapped, short and sharp, with a sharp force that cut through the air.

These guys in the caravan all have some kung fu under their hands, and some even mixed with the princes' armies.

A group of people went down without thinking about it, and Wang Lie's hands and feet were particularly nimble, and a dog gnawed mud and threw down the big male mule, lying firmly in the mud, and half of them fell into it.

Only Qianjun did not move, his body froze slightly, and his hand silently pressed the spear on the saddle.

It was a ringing arrow, with a sharp whistling sound coming from behind, and it was no more than two or three feet away from the side of the thousand troops, piercing a huge fern leaf, as if it had hit the trunk of a tree or something, with a "plop" and a muffled whisper.

The huge fern tree shook, and the water on the leaves spilled down as if it were another heavy rain.

The moment I heard the strings, the fern leaves had already been pierced. The archers are good at this, and the arrows are faster than the sound.

Qianjun turned his head and saw a caravan man with eyes like an eagle jumping off his horse, holding a heavy and heavy bow in his hand.

He actually stood on the back of his horse and fired the arrow, taking the highest point.

"Look for death!" Wang Lie jumped up violently, "Do you want to kill someone?" ”

It was a fellow under Lao Peng, named Cripple.

There were more than forty people in the caravan this time, half of them were Lao Peng's own men, and the lame man was just one of them, who was gloomy all day long, carrying a hard bow all day long, and his fingers kept fiddling with the arrows in the quiver.

Lao Peng seems to be a tyrant in the way of business, his own men are like domestic slaves, only at his disposal, Wang Lie, the deputy leader, is nothing in the eyes of those guys.

Even when camping, the guys brought by Lao Peng rarely slept with other guys, but formed a small circle, encircled Lao Peng inside, and secretly guarded him.

The rest of the guys have long been unaccustomed to it, and they feel that Lao Peng's gang is relying on the power of the master, and they are a little suspicious of looking at people.

The lame man's face was as cold as if he was hanging on ice, and he ignored Wang Lie and slowly fastened another feather arrow to the bowstring.

"Fuck you!" Wang Lie became angry all of a sudden.

The dog was a little clever, and he saw something strange in the cripple's expression.

He swung the knife in his hand and cut off the branch of the fern leaf that blocked his view.

The huge fern leaves fell, like the roof of half a house had collapsed.

"Snake!" Lao Lu exclaimed, and his body couldn't help but retreat.

In a small open area in front of him, there was an old tree with intertwined roots, and the air roots of the old tree hung down to the ground in a twist, and it really looked like a snake hanging on the tree.

"That's a branch, your eyes are bright, don't shout."

Wang Lie scolded.

"There, there!"

Lao Tie was still panicked.

When the guys looked over again, they suddenly felt a chill in their hearts.

Then they saw the serpent, the serpent that almost merged with the old tree.

They didn't realize it, because no one thought it was such a big snake, and they saw it as a bulging tree ridge.

The cigarette pouch in Wang Lie's hand fell to the ground with a "snap".

The lame man's arrow pierced the fern leaf and then through the snake's neck, nailing it to the old tree.

Most of the snake's body was dragged on the tree, but the length of the hanging down alone was more than the length of a person, black stripes on a yellow background, a pair of strange golden eyes on a flat triangular head, and a scarlet letter hung down softly from its mouth, with sticky saliva.

More than a foot away, everyone could smell the heavy fishy smell.

"I've never seen such a big snake." Old Lu trembled.

When Wang Lie talked about the big snake he saw in Snake King Mountain, the guys just laughed, who knew that in a blink of an eye, they saw the real python, that huge mouth and jaw, if it was completely open, it would not be difficult to swallow someone.

After all, Wang Lie is an old businessman on the road of Yunhuang, and he has seen more than others.

At this time, seeing that the big snake had been nailed to death by the lame, his courage also grew, and he stepped forward and looked up and down, muttering in his mouth.

"It's a good snake gall, but the long worm is ...... sideways"

He coughed up a mouthful of phlegm and spit it on the snake's head: "Bad luck! ”

A strong fishy wind came to his face, and Wang Lie almost fainted when he smelled the smell.

He suddenly saw the huge snake's mouth open in front of him, and the python, which had been stiffened, suddenly struggled, pulled out the arrow that was more than three inches into the wood, stretched out half of its body, and bit the neck of Wang Lie standing in front of him!

No one would have thought that this snake would come back to life.

Wang Lie was still unprepared, let alone those young men, and everyone screamed and retreated together.

Only Wang Lie was left under the old tree and was grabbed by the snake by the neck, unable to retreat, unable to shout, desperately grabbed the python's letter, desperately pulling.

"Get out of the way!" Someone shouted from behind.

With a sharp gunshot, a figure flashed out of the crowd, and at that moment of leaping, the surrounding guys seemed to hear a roar of a raptor.

He ran too fast, holding the gun in one hand, and his movements changed a few times in an instant, and no one around could see how he swung the gun and how he stabbed it.

I just saw a pitch-black straight gun shadow, which streaked through a circle in the air.

In everyone's eyes, there was only a splash of bright red color that suddenly exploded in front of them, like fireworks, as if a staggering red flower had bloomed in the dark green forest, and there was a pitch-black iron light in the bright red.

Wang Lie fell on his back, still carrying the head of the snake with the size of the basin.

The body of the snake that was nailed to the old tree by a jet-black spear twisted violently, and the blood in its neck gushed out and sprayed all over the ground.

It wasn't until the blood was almost spurted out that half of the snake's body hung limply, and there was sticky blood saliva hanging from the broken neck, and a small pool of blood had accumulated in the ground.

Qianjun carried his jet-black spear with a cold glow, and stood quietly aside.

The gun in the palm of his hand did not have any dazzling cold light, but was a little gray, but for some reason, the guys were slightly frightened when they looked at the gun sticking to the snake blood, and the gun seemed to be swallowing the snake blood stained on the gun.

The arc of the gun looked bewitching, with a breathtaking bearing.

Dog Dan and a few guys pulled the snake head on Wang Lie's neck away and fell hard into the blood.

Champollion wiped the blood from the gun, wrapped the gun in the black cloth again, and walked to Wang Lie's side.

Wang Lie's face was covered with blood, and he looked hideous and terrifying, but he only coughed a few times fiercely, and he actually caught his breath.

"The gutter capsized,, almost died here...... It's a shame that you have that gun, and it's not in vain that I saved you. ”

The teeth of the python are hooked, and biting people has never been good, and it is generally entangled in the prey after it is killed, and the prey is slowly swallowed into the stomach with the hook teeth.

Wang Lie was hit by the big python when he was about to die, but it was only two deep blood holes left by the backhook teeth near the shoulder of his neck, but fortunately, he did not hurt the artery, and it was not a fatal injury.

Qianjun looked at his injuries and smiled softly.

"It's not like I'm saving you." He looked back at his back, and the lame man in the distance was still holding his stiff bow, and the feathered arrows on the string were gone.

When everyone looked at the head of the snake again, they saw that a black arrow was pierced into the golden snake's eye, and the wonderful thing was that the arrow pierced in and out of the snake, and it was through the snake's brain.

In fact, the moment the thousand armies slashed the snake, the lame man had already instantly taken the arrow and wound it and then shot to take the snake's life.

The lame man still had a gloomy face, slowly approached, and glanced at Qianjun.

"What a handsome marksmanship, so much murder."

"When you're out and about, you're on defense."

Qianjun didn't look at him, but tightened the black cloth on the spear in his hand and said lightly.

The cripple looked him up and down again, but did not speak again.

He was a little surprised in his heart, he saw the scene of Qianjun killing the snake just now, he saw it more clearly than anyone else.

From retreating sharply to the side of the horse to draw a gun, to approaching to kill the snake, he didn't seem to be surprised from beginning to end, his face was filled with endless coldness and indifferent killing intent, and he didn't have any smug expression after he succeeded.

This composure was not what he should have at his age, but rather a kind of indifferent coldness in this young man, although he always smiled faintly.

Wang Lie was helped to stand up by the dog, and the dogan sprinkled poison and hemostatic powder on his neck, which made him grin in pain.

"Damn, drag this shit down for me, fucking roast snake meat tonight, eat snake gall bladder, make up for it fiercely, see if you eat Lao Tzu, or Lao Tzu eats you!"

Wang Lie went up and kicked the snake in the head fiercely, scolding in his mouth.

Lao Lu and a few men pulled out the iron hook stuck in their waists, and cautiously approached the dead snake that was nailed to the tree.

At this time, it hung limply there, but it was the same as the branching roots of the old trees, and it looked indistinguishable from a distance.

The strange thing is that the snake was only moving in the front half of its body from beginning to end, as if it was being crushed by something behind it, and it died at this time, and it did not slide down from the tree.

Lao Lu took the iron hook and hooked the snake body ruthlessly, and together with a few guys, he roared, and the half of the snake body hidden behind the branch was finally pulled out by them. The first half of the snake was already terrifyingly big, and the second half of the pot-bellied poop was as thick as a bucket.

The whole snake weighed no less than 100 catties, and when it fell, it smashed on Lao Lu's body, so that he couldn't get up in the mud.

"Damn, it's really evil, how can there be such a big snake, is it a female snake to give birth to a small one?"

Wang Lie glared, and a fierce cold light flashed in his eyes, "Take out the little snake in your belly and take out the guts, and tell you to cut off your children and grandchildren!" ”

"Slow!" A slightly hoarse shout came from outside the crowd.

The guys naturally got out of the way, and Lao Peng had already caught up from behind.

"Big boss," Wang Lie also hurriedly put away the dirty words, tied his hands close to Lao Peng and said with low eyebrows, "There is a long worm crossing, bad luck!" ”

Lao Peng didn't look at Wang Lie again, but instead looked focused, staring coldly at the extremely huge snake corpse underground.

With a "Zheng" sound, Lao Peng suddenly pulled out the long knife on his waist with his backhand.

The guys all took a step back in shock, and the sound of Lao Peng drawing his sword was not as powerful as the momentum of the thousand troops rushing with guns just now, but when he held his long knife in the palm of his hand, the guys around him could feel a bone-piercing chill coming from their backs.
