Chapter Twenty-Nine: Snake Locking
"Two snake sisters, I have here the secret of cultivating immortals passed down by the dragon god, which can allow you to turn into a human form within 10,000 years and cultivate into a peerless beauty."
"I've thought of the name for you, Bai Xiaomei, you will be called Bai Suzhen, Qing Xiaomei, you will be called Xiaoqing. Not bad, right? ”
"I'll leak some more heavenly secrets to you, there is a lake in the southeast, and there is a handsome little white face waiting for you. Not for eating, but for sleeping. Haha"
"As long as you get out of the way, I will teach you the secrets, I promise with my personality, no, I promise with the dragon god's dragon character, I will not deceive you."
"How?" Long Jing stood at the door of the house, leaning against the wall with one hand, with a very charming smile on his face, and spoke to the two pythons very seriously.
The result, of course, was to play the harp to the cow. The two pythons, one white and one green, slowly squirmed their bodies nearly ten meters long, and the two snake heads looked at each other for a moment, and then looked at him with a confused expression.
In the face of this human's rhetoric, the python was unmoved, guarding the only exit of the house like a door god. Ren Longjing's mouth was dry, and he just stared at him vigilantly, without the slightest intention of giving way.
"Alas, I thought you were human, but you were still stupid, and it was in vain that I wasted so much saliva." The dragon spirit wiped the spit from his mouth and slowly sat down against the stone wall.
In less than two minutes, he was able to get up and walk after drinking the potion given to him by the little dragon girl, but his body was still weak, his hands and feet were sore, and there was no sign of improvement.
The two pythons had already retreated to the door, and the dragon spirit moved around the house and they didn't pay attention, but as soon as he approached the door, he would immediately put up his head and make an attack posture, and he tried it several times, without slackening at all.
The dragon spirit tried various methods, lighting fire and intimidation, feeding meat, and inducing and buying, but the two snakes just didn't move. He was in a hurry to die, and when the witch returned, he couldn't leave.
"If only there was brimstone." He tried to think of a way to deal with the python, and his eyes searched the room, hoping to find something useful.
This room is a hundred square meters, there are no windows, only a wide door, and there are several small rooms in the corners of the room, in which daily necessities are placed.
In the middle is the lobby, in the middle of the lobby is a platform three meters wide and one meter high, and a wooden shelf stands on the platform, and a huge python skull is placed on the shelf.
The python's skull was so large that it was probably bigger than the head of the 'dragon god' that ate him, with two long sharp horns and a few small horns like short spines
The dragon spirit estimated that the skull was once a 'dragon god', and this platform was the altar for worshipping the dragon god.
His eyes swept over the altar, and he saw a few bamboos and a bundle of hemp rope standing in the corner of the room, and suddenly he thought of a way, and hurriedly moved the two things to the door. He first stuck a few bamboo poles in the doorway, then cut the hemp rope into several pieces and tied them to the bamboo poles.
When the two serpents saw him approaching, they stood up again, but seeing that he had no intention of going out, they stared at him as he worked.
"I don't know if it will work."
After the dragon spirit did this, he took a deep breath and shook his hands in front of the python's eyes, attracting the python's attention to his own hands. Then the two hands grabbed the rope on the bamboo pole and began to knot it in the rope, tying one after another.
The two pythons were attracted by his movements, staring at his hands motionlessly. The dragon spirit kept tying knots while maintaining a certain rhythm while observing the python's performance.
The python seems to have seen the most interesting thing in the world, just like a primary school student watching people play and masturbate, and he was fascinated and completely obsessed with it. When the dragon spirit finished the four ropes, it slowly stopped, but the python was still looking at the rope motionlessly.
"It worked!" The dragon spirit was pleasantly surprised, held his breath, tiptoed through the two sluggish pythons, and finally walked out of the door!
"Hahahaha, I'm too smart!" He looked at the grass and trees outside, and laughed wildly in his heart.
The method he used just now was called 'snake locking technique', which was a very famous thaumaturgy in the Xiangxi region in later generations.
It is said that some people in Xiangxi can 'lock snakes', and they can avoid snake attacks by chanting spells and tying knots in the grass. There is also an even more magical 'snake trick', which is almost as magical as the snake control technique of the little dragon girl, but it seems to have been lost.
Long Jing went to the mountains of Xiangxi to explore, and specially went to consult a mountain man who knew how to 'lock the snake', but unfortunately the man was unwilling to actually show it, but only roughly demonstrated the process of 'locking the snake' to him.
At that time, the dragon spirit was very skeptical about the authenticity of this thaumaturgy, and when he returned home, he carefully studied the relevant videos and found that the 'snake locking' technique seemed to hypnotize the snake through sound and technique.
Then he learned the man's knotting technique and tried it on the snake, but he did not succeed in any of them, and finally he did not believe in it at all.
This whim, trying it on two pythons, was a great success, which really surprised him.
"I see, it's a question of who is being administered. The snake that I tested before was full of aggression and difficult to hypnotize, but there was no hostility to these two in front of me, and my spirit was very relaxed, so I was so easy to be hit. ”
"It's a pity I didn't get the snake locking spell." The dragon spirit sighed regretfully and hurriedly left the door.
The Dragon Temple is located at the top of the mountain, facing east, and the nearby grass is lush and the rocks are messy, and there is only one road leading to the bottom of the mountain. The dragon spirit was weak and could not walk through the forest, so he could only walk down the path.
"I hope I don't touch the witch." He walked anxiously for a while, and reached the flat ground at the top of the mountain very smoothly.
When he came to a rocky field, he suddenly heard a voice coming from in front of him, and he was so startled that he hurriedly lay down in the grass, and hid for a while without seeing anyone coming, and then he poked his head out from behind the boulder to peek.
I saw four women standing on the grass in front of me.
An old woman with goosebumps, a stout middle-aged woman, a little girl of seven or eight years old, and the other is a little dragon girl. All four of them held a long bamboo pole with a few strands of gray-white linen tied to the head of the pole.
"Old, middle, young and young, just get together at a table." The dragon spirit smiled secretly, hiding in place to check the nearby terrain.
At this time, I listened to the old woman's words: "Dragon girl, what the hell have you done, for so long, almost something bad!" ”
Her tone was stern and full of reproach.
I heard Xiaolongnu say apologetically: "Mother-in-law, don't blame, it's the great wizard and a few elders who have something important to look for me." ”
"Those old things, if they don't come early or late, they just choose to come at the most important time." The old woman scolded.
"What's the matter with them?" The middle-aged woman asked.
"They want ......"
"I'll talk about it later, it's out!" The old woman shouted, and the four women immediately dispersed and stood in a circle around a stone.
They stood nervously with bamboo poles for a while, and the old woman spoke, and the middle-aged woman turned over the stone with the bamboo pole. Hearing a 'goo', a flame more than three meters long came out from under the stone, and only ran towards the middle-aged woman.
The middle-aged woman had already prepared, and when she was far away, she immediately flashed flames and jumped aside.
"Yikes!" The other three women shouted, stretched out their bamboo poles, reached the end of the stone, and shook the gray and white cloth strips vigorously.
The white ash dust fell down, and with a 'gac' sound below, the flames were immediately extinguished, and then a slender figure was seen flying out of the white ash and fleeing towards the outer circle of the four.
But as soon as it escaped a few meters away, as if it had hit an invisible barrier, it shrank back and fled in another direction, only to be forced to retreat again.
The four women vigilantly held the pole to guard the circle, and did not move, only when the object was about to pounce on their own person, they used the strip of cloth on the bamboo pole to beat it back, and watched the thing run back and forth.
After a dozen straight hits and failing to get out of the circle, the thing finally stopped, hovering on the ground and baring its fangs at the four humans.
The dragon spirit couldn't help but widen his eyes when he saw the appearance of the object.
