Chapter 17: Rescue
CHAPTER XVII
Ah Sheng cautiously approached the waterfall, and the roars coming from the water curtain cave from time to time made him very afraid.
But through these days of contact, Ah Sheng felt that the spirit ginseng should not harm himself. It laboriously ran from the Foggy Mountains to Broken Yao Peak to find itself, and the purpose must have been, but it certainly not to lure itself to the Evil Beast Ridge to be used as a meal by the beasts.
When you come to the edge of the pool, the water is clear, but it is bottomless, and it is so deep that it is chilling.
Lingshen walked along the edge of the pond and went around to the side close to the mountain, Ah Sheng looked over and was surprised to find that the part of the mountain hidden under the water actually had a row of stones protruding about half a foot or so, which looked like stone steps, just enough to step across the waterhole and pass through the water curtain hole behind the waterhole.
Ah Sheng leaned his back against the mountain, held the stone wall with both hands, and moved in step by step.
Passing through the waterfall, the light in the water curtain cave was very dim, but Ah Sheng saw at a glance that in the deepest part of the cave, there was a huge snake-like monster.
It was a huge snake. No, I'm afraid it's not a snake anymore.
The biggest snake Ah Sheng has ever seen is the cloud python, several zhang long, as thick as a bucket. But in front of this monster, the cloud python is completely a little cutie.
This snake-shaped monster is afraid to be more than ten zhang long, and its torso is more than one zhang thick. At this moment, the huge body was messily twisted and twisted, and its head was covered by a huge net, it seemed to want to break free, but it seemed to have experienced a long struggle, and it was already a little weak, except for a burst of roars, there was not much movement.
Ah Sheng suddenly understood that this spirit ginseng had tried his best to lure himself over, and it turned out that it was to help this snake-like monster.
But Ah Sheng was a little scared, what if he saved this serpentine monster and it attacked him in turn?
Just as Ah Sheng hesitated, Lingshen ran to the tail of the serpentine monster, where it appeared to be a wound the size of a spen, and there was something white inside the wound that appeared and disappeared.
Ah Sheng remembered that part, because when he was fighting the cloud python, he hit it by mistake. It wasn't a wound, it was the cloaca of the snake creature, the organ used to excrete the genitals.
And the white thing that looms is the egg.
It turned out that it was really a giant snake, and it was a mother snake that was laying eggs. And its head was covered, and it could not break free, and gradually exhausted, and even lay eggs.
"If you don't save it, I'm afraid you'll have a lot of lives—" Ah Sheng muttered to himself.
As soon as he thought of this, the fear in Ah Sheng's heart suddenly dissipated a lot, and he saw that the giant snake was panting for a long time, so he approached. He was surprised to find that it was not a large net covering the snake's head, but the snake's skin that had fallen from the giant snake.
Ah Sheng thought about it, and with a slight lift of his sword finger, the remnant sword behind his waist immediately hung up.
Ah Sheng took the most primitive method, he held the remnant sword, pulled the snake skin that had faded, and carefully cut it along the lines on it.
The snake's skin was very strong, and it was very difficult for the sword to cut through it.
However, Ah Sheng is very patient and cautious, lest he hurt the giant snake.
After cutting for more than an hour, Ah Sheng finally ripped off the snake skin that covered the snake's body. Next, it's time for the head position to molt.
"I'm going to help you rip off your head and molt, I'm saving you, you can't hurt me—" Ah Sheng said to the serpent.
The giant snake seemed to understand Ah Sheng's words, and its breathing gradually calmed down, and it no longer let out a dull cry.
Ah Sheng slowly stretched out his hand and touched the huge tongue, and through the dim light, he saw two protrusions on both sides of the top of the snake's head, as if it had a bag.
Ah Sheng didn't know what it was, he lifted the edge of the molt and cut it one by one.
After another half an hour, Ah Sheng finally cut through most of the molting of his head, leaving only a small piece of adhesion.
At this time, the spirit ginseng suddenly jumped onto Ah Sheng's shoulder, and the ginseng whisker stretched out and wrapped around Ah Sheng's arm, preventing him from continuing to cut down.
Ah Sheng came to his senses, and he immediately retreated, until he reached the edge of the Water Curtain Cave.
The serpent slowly erected its huge head and slammed it against the cave wall, knocking the last remaining piece of adhesion on its head open.
The freed serpent suddenly went insane, as if it had been stimulated, and opened its bloody mouth and spewed a raging flame at the cave wall.
Immediately after, its huge body began to twist and straighten, and in the cloaca, a snake egg slowly lay out and rolled to the ground.
Seeing this, Ah Sheng immediately exclaimed excitedly: "Great!"
The giant snake heard Ah Sheng's voice, turned its head suddenly, and its eyes emitted a faint cold light, staring directly at Ah Sheng.
The giant snake slowly crawled over, looking down at Ah Sheng, the snake's mouth was closed, and only the scarlet letter kept swallowing.
Ah Sheng's heart was in his throat, and he didn't dare to move. Lingshen stood on Ah Sheng's shoulder, writhing his whiskers at the giant snake.
At this moment, there was a sudden violent fluctuation of vitality outside the Water Curtain Cave, and the giant snake's attention was immediately diverted, and it no longer ignored Ah Sheng, but turned back and swallowed the snake egg it had just laid into the snake's belly.
Then, the serpent writhed its massive body and burrowed from behind the curtain of water into the deep pool.
Ah Sheng stuck his head out of the waterfall, and was surprised to see that there were more than a dozen people in red robes standing next to the waterhole, who turned out to be Lu Zhenting and Duan Yaofeng's disciples.
Lu Zhenting held a machete in his hand and plunged it into the ground, and half of the blade was inserted into the ground. The rest of the disciples of Broken Yao Peak all looked solemn, and their vitality was surging, and they had already been urged to the extreme.
"Disciples, the roar of the black-horned giant beetle has become weaker and weaker these days, and today it is even more silent, presumably it is the weakest time for the dragon. Coupled with the fact that it was spawning, it was the perfect time for us to destroy it. Today, give me 12 points of all your strength—" Lu Zhenting shouted loudly.
"Yes, Master!" the disciples shouted in unison.
"Cloud Breaking Knife!" Lu Zhenting sighed, held the big knife with both hands and raised it above his head, shook it violently, and the fierce vitality burst out from the knife body, the knife light flickered, and a huge sword light that grew several feet long was formed in the air.
Lu Zhenting slashed, the knife was like a real big knife, roaring down from the top of his head, and slashing into the waterhole, which actually set off a monstrous wave, dividing the entire deep pool into two, and hitting the bottom with one knife.
"Roar-" A huge black shadow rushed out of the huge waves, opened its bloody mouth, and rushed towards Lu Zhenting.
"It's a good time!" Lu Zhenting put the big knife in front of him, suddenly retreated dozens of feet, and shouted loudly: "Broken Yao Peak disciples listen to the order, set up the formation!"
