Chapter 117: Encounter (3)
said that Xin Xiaoyue held a machete to cut the bushes of thorns, and it took almost an hour to climb to the mountainside.
During the Qingming Festival, Xin Xiaoyue came to clean it. But the plants grew like crazy in the spring, and in a short time, the grass around the graveyard grew again.
Xin Xiaoyue put down her tools and backpack, knelt down respectfully, and burned the paper money.
Then, she kowtowed three more times before saying, "Mom, Xiaoyang was admitted to the military academy and went to the training camp a few days ago, so it's not good to ask for leave at this time." So, I'm the only one to see you. ”
After she finished speaking, she sprinkled special snake repellent powder around the cemetery, and picked up a knife to remove the weeds around the cemetery.
Just as she had just finished adding soil to the grave and wanted to say a few words to her mother lying in the grave without reporting good news, a large flock of birds suddenly fluttered in the dense forest on the top of the mountain, and flew in a panic in the sky, chirping and chirping.
Xin Xiaoyue was startled, looked up at the number of birds, and judged from her experience living in the mountains: If there were not super fierce beasts in the woods, then at least ten or more people were exercising vigorously.
Immediately after, there was a crisp sound, like a gunshot.
This is Yunshan, which is the gateway to the mountains in the west of Jincheng, and is regarded as the entrance area of the primeval forest. Although the mountain is not high, it is densely wooded and is inaccessible. So, whether it's a group of people or a super beast in the woods on the top of the mountain, it's extremely dangerous.
Therefore, Xin Xiaoyue hurriedly packed up, grabbed the scythe and left quickly.
However, instead of returning the way she came, she turned into another path flooded with wild grass.
She wanted to go down the mountain from this path to Jinyuan Villa to clean Wang Xuan's Lanyue Residence.
Xin Xiaoyue walked along the trail for about six or seven minutes when she saw a man standing in the thatch, which was more than a meter high.
The man is about 1.85 meters, dressed in an army green suit, with a thin figure and a tall posture.
He was about ten meters away from the trail, with a cliff behind him. Looking at the past from Xin Xiaoyue's angle, I could only see his side face. The side face reflected the clear and brilliant sunshine of the April day, and it was very handsome.
It's just that Xin Xiaoyue has no intention of admiring his handsome face.
Because the reason why the man stood there motionless was because there was a snake about two meters long confronting him.
The snake had a triangular flat head, about four meters away from the man, and it straightened up arrogantly, spitting its core defiantly at the man.
At first glance, it was a cobra. But Xin Xiaoyue clearly saw that the snake's eyes did not have the unique pattern of cobras, but instead had herringbone patterns.
"It's a mountain wind." Xin Xiaoyue immediately judged that this was not a cobra, and suddenly felt like a big enemy.
The mountain wind is actually a king cobra, and its poison ranks first in the world of venomous snakes.
In the past, when living in the mountains, my uncle often caught snakes and sold them for money, and Xin Xiaoyue heard him say that this kind of snake is very similar to a cobra, with super poison and a violent temperament. If it is used as prey, it can chase its prey several mountains, and its chase speed and attack speed are like a wind crossing the mountains.
My uncle once said, "If you see a mountain wind, it's best to avoid it." If you're unlucky enough to be taken as a prey, you'll only find a chance to kill it. Otherwise, it is you who will die. ”
In front of him, the man was obviously prey to the snake. It's just that although this man stood there motionless, he didn't show the slightest fear and decline, and the whole person seemed indifferent and calm, and there was a powerful majesty.
Even if Xin Xiaoyue was separated from a distance, she felt that this person was very powerful. It was probably because of his powerful momentum that the snake did not dare to act rashly, and only hissed and spat out its core over there, trying to wait for an opportunity to attack.
Xin Xiaoyue could have moved away quietly, as far as the snake repellent powder she carried in her bag, as long as she didn't take the initiative to provoke the mountain wind, and the mountain wind hated the smell of snake repellent powder, she wouldn't chase her.
But she saw that the man's dress was by no means a country man, and he did not necessarily have experience in handling snakes; And he didn't have any weapons to use. No matter how powerful his aura is, no matter how smart he is, it will only be a matter of time before he is killed by this snake.
Xin Xiaoyue has never been the White Lotus of the Holy Mother, but she really can't do such a thing as seeing death and not saving her.
What's more, in these ten miles and eight towns, in terms of the ability to kill snakes and catch snakes, after the death of her uncle, no one can compare to her.
Therefore, Xin Xiaoyue decided to kill this mountain wind.
She visually measured the distance and calculated the way. Gently moved to the right position, and when the wind turned to the snake, she sprinkled a handful of snake repellent powder over it, and retreated a few meters over the mountain wind, and sprang up to attack her.
Xin Xiaoyue immediately spilled a handful of realgar powder, the mountain wind receded slightly, but she had already flown over, and the desert island in her hand had accurately cut off the snake's head, and then she didn't know how many knives she smashed, smashing the snake's head to pieces.
When she was sure that the snake would not spurt venom again, Xin Xiaoyue felt weak all over, and her whole body was almost paralyzed.
When she lived in the mountains, she and her uncle had killed a lot of snakes, but those were ordinary snakes, which was the king of poisonous snakes.
She struggled to hold on, panting, and lifted her sleeve to wipe the cold sweat off her face.
The man was still standing in place, and although he was against the light, Xin Xiaoyue could vaguely see that he was looking at him in surprise.
"What are you doing in the mountains?" After closing the ghost door and walking around, Xin Xiaoyue's tone was very bad, with obvious questioning.
Jiang Yu looked at Xin Xiaoyue blankly.
He didn't expect to meet her officially in such a way.
Xin Xiaoyue saw that he was stunned, so she frowned and asked, "What are you doing in the mountains?" ”
"I, I'm here for bird watching." Jiang Yu was a little nervous and lied casually, anyway, Uncle Kang likes bird watching the most.
Xin Xiaoyue's voice is very good when she hears him, like a mountain spring, without impurities.
But now she really has no intention of appreciating this voice control, and the recent years have been unfavorable, and a mess of bad things has made her very short-tempered.
"The people in the city should stay in the city, and they will run to the mountains to find death if they have nothing to do." Her tone was even worse.
Jiang Yu didn't answer, but Xin Xiaoyue didn't stop, she walked up the trail in three steps and two steps, and then turned her head and urged: "Hurry up, go down the mountain." ”
Although according to experience, there is a strong sense of territory in the mountain wind, and one mountain or several mountains are one. But it's hard to guarantee that no strange snake lives in pairs.
If there is another one, then she and this man will both die.
Jiang Yu was stunned for a moment, looked at the stinky boys on the mountain, and quickly followed Xin Xiaoyue. At this time, she walked in front without saying a word, and took the scythe to cut down the crazy thorns along the way.
He wondered what kind of play she was playing. Killed the snake so cleanly, is that snake also a prop for them, their trust?
He was extremely defensive, watched coldly, and with even more curiosity, followed Xin Xiaoyue down the mountain.
On the mountain, the snipers of the Jiang Clan's disciples were instantly stunned.
They were so nervous that they told themselves that they had to shoot the snake in the head, but while they were calculating the wind speed, a village girl appeared on the side of the road.
The village girl looked at it, sprinkled a handful of powder, burst out, and slashed the serpent.
The whole process is fast, smooth, and done in one go. At a glance, people will know that this village girl is a habitual snake killer.
"Jiu Shao left with the village girl. Is this to repay the grace of saving lives? Someone said dumbfoundedly.
"Village girl, your sister! That's Xin Xiaoyue, Xin Xiaoyue. Chai Xiu, who was holding a telescope, shouted.
"Ah, our young lady? So mighty? Someone was surprised and said,
"Mighty sister! She's a dangerous person. As soon as Chai Xiu stomped his feet, he shouted, "Scar, Jiang Fang, you two will quietly follow Jiu Shao with me and protect you closely." Cheng Xu, you send that snake to those old guys and continue to study. Sniper, grandma's, aim at Xin Xiaoyue for me, and shoot him as soon as there is any trouble. ”
A group of people didn't know the inside story, and when they heard Chai Xiu say, they didn't dare to move, and only looked at Xu Kang, who looked solemn.
Xu Kang hesitated for a moment and nodded slowly.
A group of Jiang disciples took their places. Xu Kang said to himself: "Is it a coincidence, or is it a coincidence? ”
