Xiao Nizi shrewdly flashed her body, and dodged the first attack of the majestic and high-spirited five-step snake. However, the wooden stick in his hand failed to hit the rising snake for half a minute, and the five-step snake just fell to the ground.

However, it did not give up the battle and fled in all directions, but immediately turned around and made a comeback, and slid quickly under Xiao Nizi's feet again.

Seeing this extremely close, faster and more ferocious attack again, the five-step snake seemed to be about to jump up at Xiao Nizi's calf, and just as it was about to jump, Huan'er instantly covered her eyes and let out a scream that shook the entire mountain forest: "Don't, Xiao Nizi......"

At this moment, Huan'er only felt that the world around her was pitch black, as if everything had come to a standstill.

The heartbeat, the breathing, the consciousness, even the eternal air that has remained unchanged in the world for thousands of years has instantly condensed, and even the wind in the mountains has also stopped because of the human tragedy that is happening in front of him at this moment, only the ears have been buzzing.

I don't know how long it took, Huan'er finally seemed to slowly come to her senses, and then slowly let go of a pair of hands that were covering her dull eyes, wanting to take one last look at Xiao Nizi.

Unexpectedly, there was suddenly nothing in front of her, no corpse of Xiao Nizi, and no trace of the five-step snake.

For a while, Huan'er held the crutch that Xiao Nizi had made for her tightly, and was stunned when she looked at everything in front of her.

It was as if everything that had happened just now was like a dream, Xiao Nizi was blocked by her at the bottom of the mountain and never caught up with the mountain, and the strange and poisonous five-step snake in the world seemed to have never appeared at all.

"Is this all an illusion, my hallucination?" Huan'er looked at the cane in her hand in wonder and muttered to herself.

As soon as the words fell, a woman's voice as crisp as a lark suddenly sounded behind her, "Sister Huan'er!"

Hearing the sound, Huan'er turned around suddenly, only to see the two sleeves rolled up high, facing her with a smile on her face, and the slim little girl was standing in her hands, lightly controlling the head of the five-step snake that was still spitting out its head at them.

"Little Nizi, where did you go? You scared me to death, do you know, I thought I was ......" Huan'er said as she burst into tears with excitement.

Xiao Nizi held up a branch pinched in her other hand, and while stuffing it into the mouth of the five-step snake, she explained to Huan'er: "Well, I just grabbed this guy when he was about to jump towards me, and found a harder branch here behind you, and supported the mouth of this hideous snake to prevent it from biting people again!" What is there to worry about. I'm not saying that we're going to be fine, then we're going to be fine. In the mountains, you have to trust my little girl, you know? Since I learned to walk, I have followed the people in the village every day in this mountain, I have never seen anything, and I have never encountered anything! A venomous snake just wants to scare me. Hmph, my aunt and grandmother took your snake gall bladder today, so that you can never harm anyone again in the future. ”

Seeing this, Huan'er looked in front of her

This little girl, who is slightly younger than herself, really doesn't know whether to cry or laugh.

As soon as the words fell, I saw that Xiao Nizi suddenly stretched out her hand and really wanted to take the snake gall of the five-step snake, Huan'er hurriedly took two steps forward and stretched out her hand to stop it: "Xiao Nizi, stop it, don't kill it!" The five-step snake is an extremely valuable medicinal herb that can be used to treat leprosy and sores. Let's release it! ”

When Xiao Nizi heard this, she pursed her lips and said incredulously: "Release? You're not mistaken, I'm not mistaken, right? I finally grabbed it, and if I let go, what if it attacks us again? ”

Huan'er shook her head, waved her hand, and said, "No, no, you are so powerful, it will definitely not dare to threaten you again." Please, little Nizi. If it weren't for the fact that we were in a hurry to do something more important today, I would have really wanted to take it back to the old lady! She would love this hard-won and precious herb. But if it dies in the wilderness like this, wouldn't it be a tyrannical thing? ”

"Alas, he really deserves to be the person who grew up next to the living bodhisattva! This snake almost killed you and me! I finally grabbed it, and let it go like this, alas! What a pity, what a pity! Hearing this, although Xiao Nizi sighed again and again, she finally listened to Huan'er's advice and carefully put it down.

Who knows, the five-step snake really seemed to be very afraid of Xiao Nizi's superb snake catching skills this time, and as soon as it hit the ground, it "swished", and fled into the grass like a smoke, and soon disappeared without a trace.

For a while, Xiao Nizi was stunned by the stunned speed of her escape.

Seeing the five-step snake fleeing in a hurry, Huan'er finally breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward to take Xiao Nizi's hand, and slowly lowered the two sleeves for her affectionately.

He grabbed Xiao Nizi's two hands tightly, as if he would never let go again, and said to her with a smile: "Xiao Nizi, fortunately there are you along the way!"

The two women held hands like this, you look at me, I look at you again, and their faces are filled with a smile of happiness and innocence.

As the sky in the deep mountains seemed to be gradually darkening, the search for the person still did not make the slightest progress, and the two of them came to a dense broad-leaved forest area.

As she walked, Xiao Nizi suddenly seemed to notice something again, gradually slowed down, her eyes were sharp, she frowned and quietly took Huan'er's hand, and then suddenly dodged and hid behind a thick tree.

Huan'er asked in a panic, "What's wrong?"

"Shhhh

I saw that it was a strong and tall behemoth that looked to be about seven feet long, with a large and round head, short ears, thick and powerful limbs, a long tail, and a white body covered with black horizontal stripes, wandering slowly and slowly in the forest not far from the two of them, foraging for food.
