Chapter 21: The Strange Affair of Sanshi Village (Part II)
After a while, the store knocked on the door, Lan Feng opened the door, and through Lan Feng, the store also saw Ding Lin who was asleep on the bed and had not woken up, gave him an expression that I understand, and then retreated to the corridor, and Lan Feng followed.
"Guest officer, I'm here to inform you, I'm afraid I won't be able to enter the mountain today. β
"You can't get by, can you?"
"Hey, how do you know, officer? β
"Heard, by the way, is your village chief the oldest person in this village?" Lan Feng asked.
"What do you ask for?" hesitate
"If you want to hear the story, the old man must know a lot, just tell me. β
"Let me tell you the truth! Our village chief is the oldest here, but he has only been in our village for a few years, and he said that he was sent from above. β
"Oh, no wonder!" Lan Feng thought for a moment, then took out six gold coins, "Help us arrange it, wait for them to get up and tell them, I'll go out and take a look around, let them wait here first." β
"Okay, okay, don't worry, the guest officer will definitely explain. The shopkeeper put away the money and smiled.
Lan Feng felt strange before, there was an accident in the village, and the village chief led people to discuss it, but the two people who arranged went wrong, he seemed to know that something was going to happen in the village, and the other was to arrange for someone to go to the first line of the mountain to check the situation, so it was as if it was determined that there would be a problem on the first line, and the person who reported it said the situation after coming back, the village chief was not surprised at all. In that case, it is better to go to the village chief's house first.
Lan Feng walked slowly all the way, there were not many villagers on the road, and there were more guests recently, and no one noticed him, and the snakes in the village were probably cleaned up, because a group of people in front surrounded the courtyard gate of a mansion. The reason why I say mansion is because in such a village, such a house is really too atmospheric.
"Eh, big brother, what is this for, why is everyone gathered here?" Lan Feng patted a person on the shoulder.
"Oh, little brother, I'm afraid I don't know yet, something happened in the village, I don't know what happened last night, the sky cracked into the mountain, do you know what's in there?"
"Didn't you say there's magma in there?"
"Magma, if the magma doesn't spew out yet?" the young man glanced at him with disdain, "Believe everything, it's okay to tell you, anyway, the meeting will be made public, there is the corpse of the Ice Heart Snake King, it is said to be a spirit beast, I'm afraid the grade is not low!"
Lan Feng frowned suddenly, the person who said magma must have arranged it deliberately. And listening to what he said, Lan Feng couldn't help but think of the story that Ding Lin told before, so it seems that this matter is not groundless, since it will be made public later, it must be that the village chief has gathered many people at this moment to discuss the solution, since the great power in the story has subdued the Ice Heart Snake King and handed over his soul to the villagers, there must be a way to solve the problem. But this snake plague is not so simple. Lan Feng wanted to find a place to sit for a meeting, so he turned around and withdrew from the crowd, and did not forget to look back at the mansion in this village, and said in his heart: What is this village chief who came a few years ago for? .
At dawn, the village chief finally came out with a few old people in the village, and they lined up.
"Folks, a few of our old things discussed, we think that the snake talisman has no effect, so many snakes will enter the village, but no matter what, the body of the snake king has been exposed, and there is no soul, I am worried that it will become a killing machine, so our old guy unanimously decided, destroy the snake talisman, put the few remaining souls back, once the ice heart snake king leaves, a line of heaven will be closed, and the people of Sanshi Village are not allowed to mine in the future, we and the ice heart snake to this well water do not violate the river water, this road into the mountain is broken, our village has no hope of survivalγ β
"Village Chief, will that work?"
"Definitely, folks, please rest assured. β
"Then we'll go home and get it. As he spoke, the crowd gradually dispersed.
"Eh, big brother, why are you still here, aren't everyone else home?"
"I'm ashamed, my family has been poor since I was a child, and my parents died early due to the war. The man said, sighing from time to time.
"And what are the snake charms they are talking about?"
"It's the snake carving in every house, it is said that it is a sigil, and what is suppressed in it is the soul of the Ice Heart Snake King. β
"Then have you ever seen the Ice Heart Snake King?"
"Why haven't I seen it, I just came back from a line of sky, and there is a snake dozens of feet long below, the whole body is crystal clear, not to mention, it's very good-looking. β
"Where did you hear the stories about the Ice Heart Serpent King in your village, and did your ancestors pass them down?"
"Of course not, it was the village chief who told us, fortunately he told us about it, otherwise we would still worship at home, I always thought it was an auspicious artifact, who knew it was a spirit animal. β
"So that's the case!" Lan Feng said meaningfully, the spirit beast is not so powerful, and the soul division can still live. Besides, listening to what he said, this snake doesn't seem to be a species that hides filth and dirt at all, but all heaven and earth spiritual creatures, their appearance is manifested according to practice, if it is a spirit beast that does a lot of evil, then the body will definitely surround the slightest black qi, not as he said, the whole body is crystal clear, it seems that the matter about the ice heart snake has to be investigated to know, by the way, how to forget it.
Lan Feng's soul power entered the Heavenly Book World and shouted directly: "Qianji, Qianji, come out quickly, I have something to ask you." β
I screamed twice in a row, but there was no response.
"Lazy cat, it's time to eat. Lan Feng shouted again.
Syllable!
A blade qi hit Lan Feng's side directly, and there was a burst of air explosion.
"Lao Tzu is Lord Qianji, if you dare to call me a cat, I will bite you to death. The cat in the air folded its hands and pursed its lips.
"Okay, let me ask you, do you know the Ice Heart Snake?"
"Of course, I know that the Ice Heart Snake is a desolate species, but it is a very strange creature, and its natural enemy is itself. β
"What do you mean? Isn't it a spirit animal?"
"I want to know, where did you kid hear about it, listen, Lord Ben told you that the Ice Heart Snake is born in various mineral veins, but it takes 10,000 years, once it is derived, it will lurk in the mineral veins, and when it encounters a creature, it will enter the body of the creature, devour its life force, and when it reaches adulthood, it will break out of the shell, of course, the host will die. But the reason why I say that its enemy is itself is because the derivation of the Ice Heart Snake will have a companion snake derivation, that is, the recorded Ice Heart Snake King, its appearance is almost the same as the Ice Heart Snake, but it lacks the Ice Heart Snake's nemesis, its ability to devour the Ice Heart Snake's life force, if someone has the Ice Heart Snake lurking, if you can meet this companion snake, you can pick up a life, and it is also the nemesis of snake creatures, from the soul restraint. However, the desolate alien species I am talking about is another name for it, which is called the Ice Crystal Soul Eater Python. β
"Well, that's a good thing. Lan Feng said.
"Of course, but the adult Ice Crystal Soul Devouring Python is equivalent to the half-step Martial God Realm, and even in its infancy, it has the strength close to the Three Realms of Heaven and Man. Why are you asking about this?"
"Is there a three-realm of heaven and man? Lan Feng scratched his head, "Not good." β
With that, Lan Feng hurriedly withdrew his soul power and hurried back to the inn.
