Chapter 235: Snake Hunting

Huo Yun was really familiar with this mountain, he walked alone in front, and his pace was very fast in the dark. Fortunately, Xue Rou and Yuan Junfeng are not ordinary people, and they can keep up. The three of them climbed the mountain against the backdrop of the firelight, this time they didn't reach the top of the mountain, only halfway up the mountain, Huo Yun took two people to another path, and the cat went over, silently, like the wind.

Yuan Junfeng couldn't help but squint his eyes and look at the person in front of him, his light work was really good, and he was not even inferior to him.

Xue Rou was a little out of breath, and she could only keep up with Yuan Junfeng, but she was not slow at all. She doesn't want others to look down on her, not to mention that she is racing against time at this time.

Fortunately, there was moonlight tonight, and the huge round moon hung in the sky, making the trees white and white, and a little shadow was reflected on the ground, so that you could see the faint shadow moving on the ground.

Xue Rou suddenly sighed with emotion, "It's the full moon again, Brother Yuan, do you remember the last time we enjoyed the moon together?" ”

It's not just the Mid-Autumn Festival that the moon is full, every month there is a day when the moon hangs in the sky, depending on the weather.

Yuan Junfeng's cold eyebrows softened, and he seemed to say with some nostalgia, "Remember, it was probably three or four months ago." The two of us sat on the rooftop, admiring the moon and drinking each other. ”

Huo Yun didn't say anything, he was silent like a shadow, Xue Rou couldn't help but ask him, "Huo Gongzi, do you like a round moon or a curved moon?" ”

Yuan Junfeng smiled, "Your first question should be, Huo Gongzi, do you like the moon or not?" ”

Both of them laughed, but neither of them slowed down. The patient was still lying on the bed, and they also had a string in their hearts, and they knew that it was good to not catch the spirit snake during the day. Now it's dark, and it's up the mountain, but it's a little dull.

Thinking about what if the luck is really so bad tonight, and the spirit snake doesn't come out. Then how do I go back and explain to Master?

Yuan Junfeng knew that Xue Rou was not happy, so he joked to relieve her depression.

I thought that Huo Yun's indifferent personality should not be able to talk, but I didn't expect Huo Yun to look up at the sky, as if he really thought about this question, and then said lightly, "It doesn't matter if the full moon is lacking, the moonlight is bright, and it can illuminate the way ahead." ”

Xue Rou thought this answer was wonderful. Yes, no matter how cloudy or sunny the moon is, as long as it can illuminate the way for them to find medicinal herbs, as long as it can illuminate the path in everyone's heart, it is the best moon.

Climbing all the way up, Xue Rou found that these places turned out to be places they hadn't looked for in the morning. It happened to be behind them climbing over there, no wonder they couldn't find it in the morning, it turned out that they didn't find the right place.

Yuan Junfeng has the experience of the last time, I am afraid that this time I will also be poisoned by the spirit snake, maybe I will hallucinate? Markers are being made along the way.

On the other hand, Huo Yun was calm and did not speak. It's not like going up the mountain to catch poisonous snakes, but it's like wanting to go out for a walk, and the pace is calm, just not slow.

Xue Rou yawned, and a little physiological tear appeared in the corner of her eyes, "Brother Huo, where do you say this spirit snake usually haunts?" My patient was also bitten on the way down the mountain, but we didn't meet. Bai Yuan Gongzi also said that spirit snakes usually haunt at night, so how can they still be bitten? ”

Huo Yuntou didn't reply, "This thing is usually hidden in a cave and likes to live in groups." If you see not one, at least two or more. The patient was probably not very lucky, and he ran into a lone spirit snake before he was bitten. ”

Yuan Junfeng looked at his calm appearance, and had some doubts in his heart, "Is Huo Gongzi very familiar with the spirit snake?" I see that your steps are very fast, and you are looking for a clear direction, are you really not afraid? ”

Huo Yun finally stopped, he turned around, his handsome face looked a little pale in the moonlight, "It's not the first time I've caught this thing, I have a lot of experience, after all, my mother has been bitten by it before." ”

Xue Rou was shocked, and the master said that being bitten by a spirit snake requires a hundred herbs to detoxify. Huo Yun's mother had been bitten before, but looking at his appearance, he didn't have a sad expression when he said it. It means that it must be detoxified, who will detoxify?

Master is already a well-known miracle doctor, and he is still very troublesome about this poisonous snake. Who cured Huo Yun's mother? Could it be that it is another divine doctor?

Xue Rou didn't ask any more questions, only thought in her heart, and her footsteps caught up with him faster.

Huo Yun took the two of them and finally climbed to the opposite side of the mountain. Only then did I realize that the mountains on both sides were actually different. The other side is facing the light, the grass and trees are dense and cold, probably because there is no light here, and the mountains are much more desolate than there.

The trees were also a little shorter, and they didn't look as dense and the fog was much less.

Originally, I thought that the growth place of the spirit snake was in those areas full of vitality and lush vegetation, but I didn't expect it to be the opposite. There are no people living under the mountain itself, only Huo Yun has a house, and the villages that are a little closer are a few miles away. There is no one at the foot of the mountain at this end, and it is so desolate that it is not good.

No wonder it is said that it is not easy to see the spirit snake, I'm afraid no one has passed by. Even the herbs and firewood that I wanted to chop on the road were mostly on the other side.

Huo Yun climbed sideways from the rock wall, and every step needed to be accurately landed on the ground, and no one knew what it would be like to fall.

Yuan Junfeng simply carried Xue Rou on her back, her hands were tightly clinging to Yuan Junfeng's shoulders, Yuan Junfeng was firmly protecting her with one hand, and climbing with the other, and quickly followed behind Huo Yun.

Suddenly there were a few cries of crows in the woods, and the clouds in the sky just stopped the light of the moon, and it seemed silent and terrible in the night.

Huo Yun glanced up at the sky, lit the fire, jumped down from the rock wall, and landed in the clearing. Yuan Junfeng followed.

Huo Yun raised the fire fold high, and Xue Rou jumped down from Yuan Junfeng's back, rubbed his eyes, and looked at the opposite scene.

There was a cave, and the entrance of the cave was overgrown with weeds, as if it were to hide the inside of the cave, and no one would have known that there was a cave in this place unless they saw a small gap next to it.

Huo Yun blew out the fire, "This is it." Most of the spirit snakes live here. ”

His voice was firm, but Xue Rou was still a little confused, "Brother Huo, how do you know that they are all here?" ”

Huo Yun laughed lightly, a little disdainful, "I used to serve a nest many years ago. Later, when they met again, they lost their interest and let them multiply. ”

Xue Rou twitched the corner of her mouth, spirit snakes were already rare, and they might not be available anywhere else. Qingwu Mountain is the most, no wonder the master said that he hadn't seen this kind of snake for a long time, could it be because Huo Yun took a whole nest at that time and directly cut off his lifeline?

Yuan Junfeng's expression was a little serious, and he had the majesty of a general when he didn't speak and pursed his mouth, "Spirit snakes are social creatures, if a large group of people live in this cave, we may be in danger if we rush in." ”

Huo Yun casually took out the small dagger and played with it in his hand, "Don't worry, at this time, that group of stupid snakes is going out to forage for food." The fool likes to go out at night, and there are at most one or two snakes in the cave, and no more. I'm measured. Just come in with me. ”

His voice was hoarse, and he sounded quite like a man. It's just that Yuan Junfeng looked at his slightly soft side face, and felt that this was a girl's idea that he was getting firmer and firmer.

Xue Rou said a little tiredly, "Then let's go in quickly, and go back early after catching the snake." I didn't get a good night's rest last night, and I'm a little sleepy now. ”

Huo Yun nodded and walked ahead, he squinted through the gap in the cave and looked in, sure enough, there were only two spirit snakes lying on the ground, maybe they still had some wisdom and knew to stay behind and not let other creatures occupy their settlement. It's a pity that someone is trying to break in.

"Cut through the mess quickly, snakes are very sensitive, there is no need to be cautious, they will probably be discovered if they start to move. However, they can't hear. We can cut this weed first, and there should be no reaction from such a distance. ”

Yuan Junfeng agreed with him, "That's the case, let's go to the side alone." ”

Xue Rou was placed outside by them, guarding the entrance to the cave, and if they heard the sound of snakes crawling, let them know. A snake may have no sound, but a group of snakes can move a lot. Xue Rou cheered up and stood cautiously on the side of the cave entrance.

Huo Yun and Yuan Junfeng each cleaned up the weeds from one side, and the two of them dodged into the cave at the same time, aiming at the two snakes on the left and right in the cave entrance. In just one second, the two of them each determined the snake they wanted to catch.

Yuan Junfeng lowered his voice and said, "We want to take the snake gall of the spirit snake, but if we kill them rashly, we may break the snake gall together, so let's capture them alive." How is it? ”

Huo Yun nodded, aiming at the spirit snake on the right with a stronger pattern. He rubbed his wrist and flew up, moving softly as if nothing had happened, and the snake was still lying there, motionless.

Yuan Junfeng dodged and walked up the cave, and approached the spirit snake, the spirit snake was startled by the sudden appearance of the creature, subconsciously jumped up, and spit out the poisonous snake letter to bite.

Yuan Junfeng avoided its mouth and jumped to the other side, and the snake's mouth hissed towards him, back and forth several times, but he was about to bite, but he avoided it. This unintelligent creature was angry, opened his mouth and bit it indiscriminately, biting Yuan Junfeng's hem to pieces, but he was not in a hurry. After a few teases, he finally grabbed seven inches of it and put it in the palm of his hand.

The Huo Yun also grabbed a spirit snake at once, tore open a strip of cloth, tied its mouth open, and threw it into the bag on the side.

Yuan Junfeng was about to go over to talk to him, when he suddenly heard Xue Rou's whistle at the door, the spirit snake's army was coming back, and they had to hurry up. Yuan Junfeng wanted to throw the spirit snake into his pocket, but the snake kept wriggling, and when it fell in, it slipped past Yuan Junfeng's dagger, and it was immediately stained with blood.

Huo Yun let out a low snort, "Oops, the blood of the spirit snake is fragrant, and it will attract other spirit snakes as well." ”
