Volume 1 Entering the Immortal Realm Chapter 337 Planning
Zhang Yuan and Wu Qigang never looked back after leaving, and they didn't even know what the villagers in Ningzhuang behind them were thinking, the two of them were just talking about some of the various methods they had prepared to deal with the horned snake these days.
"Fellow Daoist, the two of us need to observe after reaching the range of the horned snake's activities, I was just blindly catching it at first, and then I thought about it, in case there are monsters in the same cave as it, I am afraid that I will have to fold here. Wu Qigang and Zhang Yuan walked in the forest and talked.
"That's certain, and I have never fought with this demon beast, I don't know what magical powers it has, so it's naturally the best after careful observation by you and me, and I don't know if this beast is advanced, these are all things that you and I need to observe carefully. Zhang Yuan nodded after hearing this.
Wu Qigang was overjoyed after hearing this, although the other party had been asking about the supernatural powers and weaknesses of this demon beast all the time with himself, and now when he was about to confront him, he still did not forget to ask carefully and make all preparations, such a meticulous person must have missed very little.
Talking along the way, the two came to the mountainside of Wuyuan Mountain.
Wu Qigang stopped, Zhang Yuan also stopped, Wu Qigang pointed to the lush mountain and stone forest in front of him to the staggered place, and said: "That evil animal met me there in the first place, and started a fierce battle, and there is a cave under the mountain and stone forest, which is the place where the evil beast's breath is cultivated. ”
After listening to this, Zhang Yuan nodded, looked around again, and said, "You and I want to find a place on higher ground, where you can have a glance around and is not easy to be discovered by this demon beast, I don't know if there is around?"
Wu Qigang nodded with a smile after hearing this, pointed to the two towering giant trees in front of him, and said, "This is the best place, and I have been secretly observing this place." ”
After Zhang Yuan listened, he looked up and saw that the two big tree treetops could indeed see the surrounding scene, which couldn't be better.
After reading it, Zhang Yuan retracted his gaze and looked at Wu Qigang, who took out a small bottle at this time and began to splash it on himself.
Zhang Yuan was very puzzled when he saw it, but he didn't ask much, and after a while, Wu Qigang started to splash Zhang Yuan again after splashing himself.
After splashing it, Wu Qigang said: "This potion is something I have already refined, and it is not easy for this demon beast to be discovered when it is sprinkled on my body, so you and I are very safe." ”
Zhang Yuan nodded after hearing this, and then the two of them flew up to the treetops, hiding behind the dense leaves of the giant tree, carefully observing the surroundings, looking for their main target today.
The two of them didn't know how long they waited, and just when the two of them relaxed their vigilance a little, suddenly there was a friction sound from the rustle, and the two looked behind them where they were looking for the sound.
Seeing the dense grass in the distance swaying from side to side without wind, the two knew which horned snake had returned, but they didn't know why it made a rustling sound.
After a while, I saw a long sharp white horn poking out of the grass, swaying from side to side as if to probe the surroundings, and after a while, when the horned snake felt that there was nothing else around, it sprang out of the grass.
After scurrying out of the grass, Zhang Yuan completely saw the size of this demon beast, which was dozens of zhang long, even so, the body did not poke out of the grass at all, and he still looked around cautiously, until he really felt that there were no other demon beasts nearby, and then he swayed his body and rushed out of the grass.
When the tail of the horned snake came out, the two saw that its tail was wrapped around and dragging a person!
This person was covered in blood, and it looked like a woman, and the tail dragged by the horned snake in the course of the flight pulled the female corpse left and right and made a rustling and rubbing sound!
It turned out that this demon beast attacked a woman who came out of a nearby village to do laundry, because she had gone out to forage for food, and was ready to return to the shelter to fold and practice, and met the woman who returned on the way, and the woman was instantly curled up by her tail after being frightened, and then dragged to death and ready to be dragged back to the cave, in case her whereabouts were exposed.
Seeing that the horned snake was about to drag the female corpse past under the tree of Zhang Yuan and the two, the two people in the treetop looked at each other, and shook their heads at the same time, indicating that there were uncertain factors in it, and they could not act easily, if it came back by itself, the two were ready to ambush it here, and now seeing that the other party dragged back a female corpse, the first thought of the two was that they thought that this demon beast was preparing to hand over this female corpse to another horned snake in the cave to enjoy!
In this way, I really don't know if there are other horned snakes in the cave, but the horned snake that has returned now has escaped an ambush by two immortal cultivators because of the female corpse that he dragged on his tail.
It wasn't until the horned snake dragged the female corpse and completely disappeared into the cave that the two of them breathed a sigh of relief. 、
"Fellow Daoist, what do you think?" Wu Qigang and the others waited for the horned snake to disappear into the cave before they dared to ask.
"I don't know, if there are no other horned snakes in the cave, why this demon beast dragged back a female corpse, and if it was to hoard food, it was also possible. After hearing this, Zhang Yuan's eyes were still firmly fixed on the entrance of the cave, and he didn't dare to take his eyes off it.
Wu Qigang nodded after listening to it, and said: "This is not a way, if there is really a horned snake in the cave that has not come out, it will always be this one who enters and exits, so what should you and I do, I think, otherwise, let's find a way to force it?"
"No, you can't. Zhang Yuan shook his head after hearing this, and said: "What I am most afraid of is to startle the snake, if you are surprised, this demon beast escapes from another secret cave, and you and I will lose more than we gain." ”
After Wu Qigang heard this, he frowned and asked, "Then according to the words of Daoyou, what should you and I do?"
Zhang Yuan thought for a moment and said, "When Daoyou fought with this demon beast, there was no other horned snake from beginning to end, right?"
"Well, there's only this one. After listening to this, Wu Qigang nodded seriously and replied.
"The first-order demon beast has not yet opened its wisdom, it will only come out of some demon beast instincts, if you and I don't believe it, you can wait for it to come out of the cave and follow it all the way, and attack it in some remote places, the best of both worlds. Zhang Yuan thought about it after listening to it and said.
"If you follow all the way, don't get too close, this monster is unusually cautious, and the long horn on its forehead seems to be able to detect if there is anything moving around. Wu Qigang said after listening.
After listening to this, Zhang Yuan nodded and said, "You and I need to observe for a few days, and after roughly figuring out the whereabouts of this demon beast, we can set a trap halfway through and attack inside and outside." ”
"It's a good idea. Wu Qigang nodded after listening and agreed.
In this way, after the two discussed, they quietly waited for the next trip of the horned snake.
Just when the two of them were squatting from daytime to midnight, the horned snake suddenly came out of the cave, hovered over, coiled on the top of the cave, raised the horn above its head, aimed at the moonlight, its eyes were instantly closed, and the snake swallowed without listening.
This demon beast is absorbing the essence of the moon to improve its own cultivation!
In the distance, the two of them in the treetops were in full view.
If the day is suspicious, at this time there is a little certainty, there are no other horned snakes or demon beasts in the cave, otherwise, how could they not go out of the cave with them to absorb the essence of the moon.
The horned snake had been absorbing for nearly two hours, and when it was about to dawn, the horned snake opened its eyes, and the long horn above its head shook, and a faint red light flashed on the top of the horn, and then disappeared, and then, the horned snake swung back into the cave and never appeared again.
After reading it, the two began to talk in a low voice.
"I'm sure it's the only one, otherwise, we'll kill it?" the excitement in Wu Qigang's eyes was unmistakable.
Zhang Yuan was also very sure that there must be only this demon beast in the cave at this time, looked at the excited Wu Qigang in front of him, thought about it, and said: "If you and I rush in, it will be extremely dark inside and it will be unfavorable to you and me, and if we fight inside, you and I will not be able to use all of them inside, which will be a great loss, and besides, you and I are only a large part of the beast that may be the only beast, but in case, you and I will still follow the previous plan and ensure that nothing goes wrong." ”
Wu Qigang pursed his lips after hearing this, and then said: "After hearing the words of Daoyou, I benefited a lot, it is indeed that I am too anxious, if there is really another horned snake or other demon beasts, you and I will indeed lose more than I gain, I have waited for so many years, I can still wait for these days." ”
The two reached a consensus after talking, and then nodded and continued to squat.
The next day, after the sun was high, the horned serpent came out of the cave fiddling with its body.
When he came out, it was still the same as yesterday, and after the long horns on the top of his head poked out, he seemed to be probing everything around him, and after sensing that there was no danger, he slowly leaned out, and after surveying left and right, he swayed here and ran towards yesterday's route, passing under the tree of Zhang Yuan and the others, and then burrowing into the grass again.
The two in the treetops nodded to each other, and after the grass in the distance moved a little farther away, they quietly followed, figuring out the walking route and daily habits of the horned snake, as well as the attack supernatural powers.
And so it is two days.
The horned snake probably because of the last time he met Wu Qigang after a fight, he began to become cautious, and his walking route was the same route, he traveled at noon every day, and after catching some beasts to satisfy his hunger, he swayed left and right vigilantly and returned to the cave, and waited until the moon hung high in the sky and coiled out of the cave, to the top of the cave, absorbing the essence of the moon to replenish his body and increase his cultivation.
In this way, the two of them are completely sure, there is definitely only one demon beast in the cave, but there is no way to know how its magical power is, all the horned snakes prey on are some huge beasts, hiding in the grass and bushes, striking out in an instant, such a simple attack method is no different from the ordinary wild snake.
After observing the situation, they decided to set up a series of traps under the treetops, and when they were ready to do so, they slept well that night, and waited for noon on the next day to begin killing the horned snake.
At noon on the second day, the horned snake poked out its long horn as usual, and after detecting the safety of its surroundings, it swayed from side to side and prepared to go out to feed.
As it scurried under the two giant trees, the ground around it suddenly shook, and the leaves and dirt on both sides of the road wrapped in the horned serpent.
The horned snake quickly circled its body in shock, opened its mouth wide, and spat left and right, and two hurricanes blew out, blowing away the leaves and soil, but there were still some leaves and dirt scattered on the scales outside its body.
At this moment, two people flew down from the two giant trees, one in front of the other, and launched an attack on the horned snake at the same time!
