Chapter 42: Cheng Youmin, who has murderous intentions
Lan Yucheng's body was good and bad, looking for it all the way, most of the time it was the ghost three who were walking with the help of the third ghost, and when they came to a gourd-shaped valley, Teng Lao Wu searched for nearly half an hour.
"Mr. Lan, don't go any further, the white snake's lair should be near here, because the smell here is much stronger, it should often appear in this place, but the smell of the white snake here is also very scattered, I really can't figure out its route, so I have to find it little by little." Teng Lao Wu seemed to be a little ashamed and said.
"Good work." Lan Yucheng nodded, without the slightest disappointment on his face.
In fact, it was already an unexpected surprise to be able to find this place, and Chu Ye couldn't help but be convinced by Teng Lao Wu's nose. This Teng Lao Wu also has a habit, every time he can't grasp the direction or loses his smell, he will pour out a little bit of the powder in the snuffbox, which looks similar to taking drugs, and the exaggerated thing is that every time he smokes, Teng Lao Wu's body trembles rapidly as if he was electrocuted, which also makes Chu Ye more and more curious about the powder in it.
"In this case, let's divide into several groups, each looking for a direction, this territory is not small, once we find a nest or encounter other conditions, immediately hit a signal flare, and others will rush over at full speed."
Lan Yucheng began to assign tasks, he and Hu Lao stayed in place, I don't know if it was because Ajie's kick was too strong or because Hu Lao was getting older, Hu Lao's face was getting worse and worse, and his cough was a lot fiercer, and the whole person was a little sluggish, but this old man loved face too much, and he didn't let people check it.
The rest of the people each have a direction, Teng Lao Wu briefly talked about the shape of the general snake hole, because snakes have no limbs, crawling completely on the body, so most of the snake holes are round without edges and corners, the hole is very smooth, there are fewer rocks, and the direction of the hole is basically oblique downward.
"The white snake may also occupy the cave, the snake will fall into hibernation once the temperature is below 15 degrees in the season, and the temperature in this place has already reached below zero, the white snake is still alive and vigorous, can not be regarded as an ordinary snake, but after all, the limbs are degraded and squirm by the body, whether it is occupying the cave or the hole they play, there will definitely be no mountain rocks protruding, the cave must be very smooth."
After some instructions, everyone looked for the traces of the snake cave in their respective directions, Chu Ye was very conflicted in his heart, he didn't want the white snake to be found by Lan Yucheng and them now, the white snake was so seriously injured, once it was discovered, it would definitely die.
But Applejack and the White Snake ran away together, and if they didn't find the White Snake, they couldn't find any trace of Applejack, and until now Chu Ye still leaned toward Applejack still alive.
In Chu Ye's memory, although Applejack doesn't like to read, his brain is very smart, and his interpersonal communication far exceeds that of Chu Ye, and he can eat anywhere, which is why Applejack, who loves to make trouble so much, has not suffered any losses, and he will quickly gather a group of powerful friends around him with his intelligence and personal charm.
Applejack used to like to keep a phrase on her lips, "It's fun to deal with smart people, and only fools like fools." ”
Unconsciously, Chu Ye had been searching for more than twenty minutes, entering a deeper dense forest, and found several caves along the way, none of which were in the same situation as Teng Lao Wu said, and no one had sent signal flares, thinking that he had not found the location of the snake cave.
Chu Ye didn't dare to go too far, looked at the dimly lit woods in front of him, and was a little frightened, so he had the idea of retreating.
Suddenly, there was a sound of dead branches breaking on the left, Chu Ye trembled, and hurriedly looked towards the source of the sound, and saw the bushes over there move.
"Who?"
Chu Ye shouted, and a layer of cold sweat already appeared on his forehead.
It must be an animal in the mountains. Chu Ye thought silently in his heart.
At this moment, a figure suddenly emerged from behind the bush, Chu Ye was so frightened that he took two steps back, and when he saw the person clearly, he said in surprise: "It's you?" Why are you here? ”
The person who came was actually Cheng Youmin who was going in the other direction, Chu Ye had an ominous premonition in his heart, Cheng Youmin sneered and said, "I have been following you." ”
After speaking, he stroked the short knife in his hand and approached Chu Ye step by step.
"You want to kill me?" Chu Ye said hoarsely.
Cheng Youmin was noncommittal, and the killing intent in his eyes was even stronger.
"Why? Did Mr. Lan ask you to come? Chu Ye asked.
This Cheng Youmin is Lan Yucheng's henchman, and it is impossible for him to act privately, so the first thought that popped into Chu Ye's mind was that Lan Yucheng sent him over to kill him while looking for the snake cave, and Chu Ye had a hunch that if Lan Yucheng killed him in person, Hu Lao would definitely stop him.
"I want to see what the hell you are? I can see the changes in your body clearly when you were on the shore of the lake, and you know that Jie Shao, who knows where you come from, and what ideas you have in your heart, you can fool Mr. Lan, but you can't fool me. Cheng Youmin did not answer Chu Ye's question directly, but said so.
Hearing this, Chu Ye immediately understood, Lan Yucheng did not give the order to kill him, he thought that Cheng Youmin would just target him, but he never expected to have a murderous intent. Chu Ye suppressed his anger, but he was not afraid of him, but he didn't want to turn into a zombie again.
So Chu Ye was busy finding out the signal gun, and he also shouted "help" on his mouth, Cheng Youmin snorted, and the whole person rushed up from the tiger down the mountain, and slashed at Chu Ye's neck with a knife in his forehand, and it was a killing move as soon as he made a move.
Chu Ye had almost no experience in fighting, his body dodged the knife in embarrassment, and then ran behind him in a panic.
As soon as he moved his feet, his back hurt, and he fell to the ground in an instant, and as soon as Chu Ye turned over, he saw a blade shining with cold light stabbing towards his chest.
In a hurry, Chu Ye directly held the short knife in Cheng Youmin's hand, and there was a sharp pain in his palm, and the tip of the knife stopped less than three inches from Chu Ye's chest, and black blood flowed down Chu Ye's wrist and short knife, exuding the smell of runic water and a faint smell of rot.
Cheng Youmin looked at this strange blood, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.
"What the hell are you?" This is the second time he has said this.
While saying that, both hands pressed the hilt of the knife at the same time, Chu Ye's brain turned white in pain, and the anger in the pain began to crawl along his body like a poisonous snake, and at this time, Chu Ye was still trying to suppress the anger in his body.
Cheng Youmin noticed the changes on Chu Ye's body, and his eyes began to slowly grow a kind of gray, and the fine white hairs pierced Chu Ye's skin one by one.
The muscles of Cheng Youmin's whole body collapsed to the limit, fear gradually eroded his consciousness, and the idea of killing Chu Ye in his heart became more firm, and he added strength to his hand again, and the tip of the knife was approaching Chu Ye's chest little by little.
"In that case, let me show you my horror." Chu Ye roared angrily, staring at Cheng Youmin with a hideous face and a murderous aura, his eyes were full of hatred and sadness.
