Early the next morning, Jiang Yimeng knocked on the door of my room: "Lao Wang, get up quickly." The guides have already arrived! Just wait for you to go. ”

I put on my clothes and came to the courtyard, a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes was riding a motorcycle, and Lao Qin was chatting with him.

When Lao Qin saw that I was coming, he hurriedly introduced: "This is our guide." Let's get ready and go!"

Because they are all rugged and bumpy mountain roads, all four of us chose to walk into the mountains.

Along the way, all kinds of birds stood on the branches and chirped excitedly.

Jiang Yimeng followed us with an intoxicated expression, the sun shining on the ground through the leaves overhead.

At this time, the fog in the mountain has not yet dissipated, and it looks like a fairyland on earth.

After walking for a few hours, the middle-aged guide pointed to a waterhole not far away and said, "That's the Jilong Pond, you can continue to walk along the edge of the pool, and wait until you see a huge stone wall, and the thousand-year-old He Shou Wu is near the stone wall." ”

"Aren't you going with us?" Jiang Yimeng looked at him curiously.

He lifted his clothes, revealing the scar on his abdomen and said, "It's good that I can send you here, the wound on my body is caused by that poisonous python." I didn't dare to go any further. ”

Lao Qin took out a few hundred-yuan bills from his clothes pocket and handed them to him, and patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, you go back first!" Take the money! We can't let you run for nothing! ”

The middle-aged guide shirked repeatedly, but still took the money and stuffed it into his pocket. Before leaving, he didn't forget to tell us: "That python is not ordinary, you all have to be careful!" I'll go back first. After saying that, he didn't go back and ran back and forth.

Since there was no guide, we were very careful about the rest of the road.

Seeing that it was almost noon, the stone wall that the guide said did not appear. Jiang Yimeng touched his rumbling stomach and said, "Let's sit down and eat something and rest before we go!" Aren't you hungry? I'm hungry. ”

"Then let's eat something first! Anyway, looking for a thousand years He Shou Wu is not in a hurry for a while. Lao Qin sat on a rock, took out a few compressed biscuits from his pocket and gnawed them.

Jiang Yimeng sat on the ground and nibbled on compressed biscuits, and suddenly shouted in horror.

I hurriedly walked over to take a look, and found a white skeleton lying under the root of the tree opposite Jiang Yimeng.

Lao Qin patted Jiang Yimeng's shoulder: "Hahaha!" Don't be afraid, it's just a skeleton. ”

Jiang Yimeng patted his chest and asked, "How can there be skeletons here?" ”

I took out a bottle of mineral water and handed it to her: "Maybe it's a good thing that the poisonous rock python did, come, drink saliva!" Don't choke. ”

After a short break, we continued on our way.

The originally clear sky became cloudy, and a heavy rain looked like it was about to fall.

"It's going to rain, we need to hurry." Jiang Yimeng looked up at the sky, and then quickened his pace.

Not long after walking, Jiang Yimeng suddenly stopped. She pointed to a tall and smooth stone wall next to her and said, "Old Wang, look. ”

Lao Qin nodded: "This should be the stone wall that the guide said." Everyone should be careful, the thousand-year-old He Shou Wu is nearby, and the poisonous rock python is also nearby. ”

Just when I was concentrating on looking for the thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum on the ground, Jiang Yimeng excitedly pointed to a thick green vine on the stone wall and said, "I know the leaves of Polygonum multiflori, and that is Polygonum multiflori." But I'm not sure if it's the thousand-year-old He Shou Wu we're looking for. ”

When I looked closely, purple gas was faintly coming from the green vine. It seems, that's it.

Lao Qin looked around vigilantly: "Millennial He Shou Wu is so big?" It's not as good as a turnip. ”

I smiled and patted Lao Qin's shoulder: "Haha! You don't understand this, right? He Shou Wu has grown here for thousands of years and has absorbed enough of the essence of the sun and the moon and the aura of the land. Therefore, it will exude a unique aura all over its body. My pair of mountain demon eyes don't just look at beautiful women! It's best to look at the aura on these treasures. If you find it, start digging!" happy

Jiang Yimeng grabbed me, who was about to climb the stone wall to dig He Shou Wu: "That poisonous rock python hasn't appeared yet!" Be careful! ”

Lao Qin looked around, and then said softly: "Boy, you hurry up and dig it down!" Me and her down there will give you the wind. ”

I smiled and slowly climbed up the stone wall, and I didn't dare to mess around on it because of the unusually smooth top. Just carefully put your body against the stone wall. Slowly approached the thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum.

Finally, I climbed near the thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum, and it turned out that the vines I saw under the stone wall were only a small part, and more vines filled the crack in the stone wall.

I grabbed the protrusion in the stone wall with one hand, and gently dug through the crack with a dagger in the other.

Seeing that he was about to dig out the thousand-year-old He Shou Wu, a "sizzling" sound came.

I cautiously leaned on the top of the stone wall and looked around, but I didn't see anything.

Just when I was about to continue digging He Shou Wu, Lao Qin and Jiang Yimeng under the stone wall exclaimed in unison: "Lao Wang, top of your head!" ”

"What? Crown? What's on the top of your head?" I tilted my head and asked, only to find that the faces of the two of them were pale and their eyes were full of horror.

I screamed no, and was about to look up. A fishy and spicy smell came from the top of my head.

You don't have to look to know that it must be that damn poisonous rock python that has appeared.

I didn't have time to react, so I jumped straight into it. Jumped off the stone wall. Truth be told, I'd rather be thrown to death than be bitten to death by a poisonous rock python.

Luckily, there was a thick layer of dry leaves on the ground, and I jumped off unharmed.

I stood up and looked up, and gasped. It turned out that above the stone wall there was a snake head the size of a millstone, its head covered with gray-brown scales, and two eyes like lanterns staring at us.

It was spitting black letters, and slime was dripping from the corners of its mouth.

The slime dripped on the dry leaves, and wisps of green smoke suddenly appeared. It seems that the poison of this poisonous rock python is really not blown.

The poisonous rock python was lying on the stone wall and looking at us, and we didn't dare to act rashly.

Because I have the invisibility charm given by Old Man Xiao on my body, in his eyes, I am just a stone. And Lao Qin and Jiang Yimeng were not so lucky.

I hurriedly took out the invisibility talisman on my body and gave it to Jiang Yimeng, and then asked her to take aside.

Lao Qin threw down the mineral water in his hand and took out the dagger from his military boots, and I quickly pulled out the bronze dagger.

In this way, the two of them stared at each other, and neither dared to move first.

The wind was blowing, and the whirring sound of the wind swept the dry leaves on the ground into the air.

The Poison Rock Python finally began to move, and it wriggled and climbed down from the four walls. Only then did I get a good look at its whole body, which was the thickness of a bucket and covered in sharp, grayish-brown scales. Unlike ordinary pythons, the poison rock python has a row of sharp spikes on its back, just like the fins of a fish.

At this time, the eyes of the poisonous rock python were already emitting a faint red light, and it seemed that it was time to attack.

Lao Qin and I stood side by side, as long as the poisonous rock python moved, Lao Qin and I would bypass from the left and right sides, and attack its two eyes at the same time.

The poison rock python also seemed to see through our intentions, and just swayed around with its head held high.

And when it up its head, it just shows its only weakness.

It turns out that the scales on the abdomen of the python are the softest, and although the poisonous rock python is said to be a legendary beast, the soft scales on its abdomen are also the only weakness on its body.
