Chapter 324: Strange Snake
Li Xiruo asked Guo Jianjun and Zhang Jianguo to take some of the Feng family's medicines that can repel snakes, and said to Xiao Wu: "I heard them say before that you were wrapped up in a snake pile, and if you want to save people, you must first take us up the mountain." ”
Xiao Wu was silent for a while, and then asked, "The mountain is so big, are you going to climb the whole mountain?" ”
"That man has the same purpose as me, we'll go south to find him."
Xiao Wu listened to the south, his face was unknown, and he was not as urgent as he was in a hurry to find someone before, and after a while, he stood up and looked at some of the medicine snake forks that Guo Jianjun and Zhang Jianguo had looted, and said to them: "You don't need these things, put them back." ”
Feng Ruixing also accosted on the side: "Follow Xiao Wu, don't worry, he is definitely more reliable than the two people in front of him, he goes up the mountain shirtless every time and comes down safe and sound." ”
Guo Jianjun looked at Li Xiruo, Li Xiruo nodded, and motioned for him to unload the things on his shoulder.
Feng Ruixing rubbed his hands and said: "I haven't been to the deep mountains yet, and I can go to see it for a long time this time." ”
Zhang Jianguo listened to Yile, patted Feng Ruixing's shoulder and took him aside and said, "Okay, little brother, don't make trouble, you won't do anything, we have to follow someone to protect you, how dangerous it is." ”
Feng Ruixing's face turned red when he heard this, he looked at the few people in front of him, either they were very good at fists and feet, or they knew some techniques, and he was useless and a scholar.
He lowered his head and said, "Okay, then I'll wait here for you to come back." ”
He was a little depressed, and the young man always had a restless and restless heart, but he couldn't see that it wasn't just the cat that was killed under his curiosity.
Waiting for the sky to brighten, Xiao Wu took a group of people up the mountain unarmed, Zhang Jianguo had the first few attacks of the snake group, and he already had a shadow in his heart, and he was looking back and forth along the way, for fear that he would accidentally stab the snake's nest, and then fall into the previous situation, but all the way down, they didn't meet half of the snake, which made him amazed.
Li Xiruo glanced at Xiao Wu in front of her, she hadn't noticed his peculiarity before, she didn't expect that this child was really talented, and he could make the poisonous snakes on the mountain shy away from him.
Dao Yan entered the mountain easily, and asked jokingly with a relaxed expression in his pocket: "The snake is hiding when he sees you, how can you catch the snake?" ”
Xiao Wu turned his senses, squeezed his thumb and index finger tightly, took it in his mouth and whistled, and a bamboo leaf fell from the tree, Xiao Wu reached out and pinched it, which was exactly the seven inches of the snake.
"Catch it like this."
He handed the snake to Dao Yan, who raised his hands and took a step back and said, "Amazing, but I don't want to see these cold-blooded animals." ”
"If you're afraid, you're afraid, and you're not waiting to see you yet." Zhang Jianguo has always disliked straight words, Dao Yan looked over with cold eyes, just a wave of his hand, the bamboo leaf green in Xiao Wu's hand flew to Zhang Jianguo's broad shoulder, the snake tail was close to Zhang Jianguo's face, the cold touch made him tremble violently, and shouted: "I'll go, I'll go, get it away." ”
Li Xiruo looked over and saw that Dao Yan was teasing people again, and said to him: "Stop playing, Zhuyeqing is also poisonous." ”
Dao Yan glanced at Li Xiruo and got the snake down, and Zhang Jianguo scolded secretly: "Crazy." ”
Dao Yan ignored it, he walked straight to Li Xiruo's side, but Gu Minghan quietly changed positions, separated the two of them, and asked Li Xiruo: "What treasure is hidden in this mountain, so that you and that person refuse to let go." ”
Li Xiruo smiled: "If you look at so many poisonous snakes on the mountain, you will know that the treasure is not ordinary, and extraordinary things, of course, must be in your own hands." ”
Seeing that Li Xiruo was still answering the question, Gu Minghan raised his eyebrows but did not pursue the question.
Xiao Wu took them halfway up the mountain, turned around and looked at them with a serious expression: "After this piece of land under your feet, the road ahead is dangerous and abnormal, I once went in, there is a big snake in it, it is a difficult guy, you had better be prepared." ”
Zhang Jianguo cautiously retracted one foot and asked, "Aren't you going to let these little snakes all shy away from you?" The big snake can't help it? ”
Xiao Wu unbuttoned his shirt, pointed to his chest and said: "I once had a fracture here, that is, I was entangled in the tail of that big snake, I have never forgotten the cold suffocation, like throwing you into the water of a glacier, the biting cold and the heartbeat that is about to stagnate, fear, helplessness, surrounded your whole body." The huge head of the snake opened its bloody mouth and spat out the snake letter and licked it towards your face......"
"You're talking here?" Dao Yan leaned on the tree on the side and looked at Xiao Wu, his eyes were not good, Zhang Jianguo smacked his lips on the side and said regretfully: "I sound very interesting." ”
Li Xiruo looked at Dao Yan's face and asked in a low voice, "Are you really afraid of snakes?" ”
Dao Yan turned white, stabilized his breath and said, "I'm not afraid of general." ”
He had been chased by a giant snake before and had a shadow on the great snake.
Gu Minghan listened on the side, walked to Li Xiruo's side and said in a deep voice: "Then let's go up and open the way first." ”
Dao Yan was anxious to show himself in front of Li Xiruo's eyes, and said that he wanted to follow, Li Xiruo patted him on the shoulder: "You follow the fat man behind them, it is enough to have us." ”
Xiao Wu pointed to a forest inside and said, "This one is called the Black Snake Forest, and there is a pool of Xuanquan in it, and the big snake is in it." ”
A few people looked at the dense and secluded jungle, the trees in it were not the verdant and upright, lush vegetation in the ordinary mountains, their trunks were extremely curved, only two or three withered leaves on them, if you look from the top of the whole forest, you can overlook each tree like a dying man, stretching out his claws and teeth to the sky weakly, as if begging, and as if begging for his life.
Xiao Wu slowly retreated and walked side by side with Li Xiruo, he said as he walked: "These trees, we all call them "sick trees", they are like hopeless people, they have been rooted under their feet, and they can only stay in this place for the rest of their lives, no matter what, they can't get life. ”
A mist gradually began to rise in the woods, and the visibility ahead was not high, Li Xiruo glanced back, and there was no trace of Dao Yan and them, Gu Minghan pulled her hand and said, "Don't panic, they should follow behind, but now they can't see it for the time being." ”
Li Xiruo nodded and asked Xiao Wudao beside him, "Will the big snake take the initiative to attack people?" ”
Xiao Wu said lightly: "What kind of heart you treat it, it will treat you like that." ”
Gu Minghan frowned when he heard this, but he didn't expect Xiao Wu to smile at them: "Welcome to the real Tailuo Mountain." ”
Saying that, he disappeared in the fog, Gu Minghan threw a spell towards the place where he disappeared, but he couldn't catch him, Li Xiruo took a few steps forward, but there was no trace of anyone in front of him except the mist.
"He doesn't care about Feng Laosan?" He actually made such a heart with them.
Gu Minghan shook his head: "The person who can make the snakes on the mountain fear, but I am afraid that it is not a simple identity, we are underestimating the enemy." ”
Li Xiruo saw that he was pulling Gu Minghan into danger together, and said with self-blame: "I believed him credulously." ”
Seeing Li Xiruo lowering her head, Gu Minghan patted her shoulder and said, "It's okay, let's deal with the current level first." ”
This inexplicable familiar feeling made Li Xiruo meet Gu Minghan's eyes, but Gu Minghan shifted his gaze in time, looking around to see if there was a way out, Li Xiruo frowned and thought, it seemed that the master was talking to her at that moment just now. However, she quickly shook her head, Gu Minghan just looked similar, and she couldn't admit her mistake anymore.
Li Xiruo took out the compass to find the direction of the surroundings, and the two followed the compass all the way to the south, but the fog in front of them suddenly dispersed, and a bay of clear pond appeared in their eyes, and there was a bluestone disc on Tan, and there was a statue of a big snake on it, which was spitting snake letters, intimidating the world.
If Li Xi raised his vigilance, this was what Xiao Wu said about Xuantan, and the danger was hidden at their feet.
At this time, the light in the forest was dim, and there was a gray patch all around, Gu Minghan took out a small flashlight on his body and shot at the statue of the big snake, and the white light shone directly on the snake's head, but Gu Minghan found that the snake was missing an eye, and at this time only one eye was left to look at the world.
Li Xiruo took Gu Minghan's flashlight and shone it between the pools, but found that the pool was crystal clear, there were no shrimp and no fish, and there were some silt and stones under the bottom of the pool.
"Xiao Wu said that there are snakes under this pool, is it also a lie to us?"
Gu Minghan walked behind Li Xiruo and said, "There is a statue of a snake here, and there is always a reason for setting it up." It's just that this statue has a bit of the meaning of the beast stone. ”
Of course, sometimes rich and noble families will also build two beast stones in front of the mansion to ensure the safety of their tombs.
He stood behind her, held Li Xiruo's hand, and moved the flashlight back and forth to observe the snake statue, Li Xiruo originally felt that the aura behind her was a little weird, but as Gu Minghan kept shifting the light, her mind was immediately attracted to the statue.
Gu Minghan slowly moved the light down along the snake body of the snake statue, and said to Li Xiruo: "Is there a crack on this?" ”
Li Xiruo took a closer look: "Yes, and looking at it, it looks like a door." ”
After she finished speaking, the two glanced at each other, Li Xiruo took out a soul-locking rope and tied it to the snake's head, and flew over with Gu Minghan. The two of them stood on the small disc, looking at the palm-sized place under their feet, and stabilized their figures.
Li Xiruo touched the gap in the snake's body and said, "There should be a mechanism in this." ”
But she groped around and found nothing, but now there was a movement under their feet.
Under the clear water, the silt began to churn constantly, and the black scales gradually broke through the soil, and before they could react much, a huge tongue came out, spitting out snake letters and looking at the two of them gloomily.
