Chapter Eighty-Six: The Great Serpent

(Ask for all kinds of support!)

From Jiangzhou to Suzhou, all the way to the east, if you take a carriage, it will take almost five days, which can be said to be a long journey, the journey is lonely, you can only sit in the carriage and study.

The only way to solve our worries is to read......

Chen Jianchen and Wang Fu are both scholars, although Wang Fu's temperament is a little loose, but at this time, it is difficult for him to find other fun besides reading.

When the weather is cold, the cold wind is sluggish, and the carriage is covered with quilts, which are very soft, and Chen Jianchen reads the quilt with his arms, which is very pleasant; as for Wang Fu, who is sitting in another carriage, he should be sleeping at this time.

Suddenly the shouting of the coachman was heard, and then the carriage stopped, and there was a commotion outside.

Chen Jianchen frowned, lifted the curtain, and went out to look. Seeing that his two carriages had reached the foot of a steep mountain, several cars were parked in front of them, and many pedestrians were gathered together to talk and pause, as if the road ahead was blocked by something.

Wang Fu on the other side also got out of the carriage and called a clever servant to go up to inquire about the news.

Soon the servant returned, saying, "There is a serpent ahead." ”

Got a snake?

Both Wang Fu and Chen Jianchen were taken aback, and hurriedly asked clearly, only to know that the matter was about - the mountain in front of it is called Dongshan, and the mountain is majestic and far-reaching. From the foot of the mountain through the canyon, walk more than 50 miles to Suzhou City, at most only half a day's journey.

But in the morning, when the travelers passed through the canyon, suddenly a huge snake burst out of the mountain forest, which was as thick as a bucket, three feet long, and had a fusiform red spot on its forehead, like a third eye, which looked vicious and abnormal.

When the giant snake appeared, the team of travelers was suddenly frightened, and they only hated their father and mother for having two legs, ran wildly at the end of the road, and quickly retreated, so that the green snake did not continue to chase.

When the news broke, where did the travelers dare to go there? They had no choice but to block the canyon and discuss countermeasures.

-- Dongshan Canyon is a big shortcut to Suzhou City, if you want to turn around, from the other direction to Suzhou, but you have to walk three more days, it will waste too much time.

This road has existed for a long time, and it has been calm, and there is not even a single thief, why did such a giant snake suddenly come out?

Everyone was puzzled, and there was a person who vaguely knew something about it, saying that the snake was probably released by a snake charmer a few years ago.

The so-called snake charmer is a person who raises snakes and then sells snakes on the street to earn a living. They often go to the deep mountains and rivers to find clever and tame little snakes, catch them and raise them, and after training, they can take them out to perform. However, these snakes are generally two feet long, and if they exceed the standard, they are not suitable for acting. Therefore, when raising a snake to that extent, snake charmers often release the snake and let it return to the mountains and forests.

There was nothing wrong with the release itself.

The problem is that I don't know if the snake was born with a special talent, or if it had some adventures to grow into a big snake.

As soon as this snake is big, the problem will come out, and it will easily slip out and attack passers-by, becoming a disaster.

Snake plague!

Those blocked travelers looked at each other, anxious and helpless, no one dared to risk going forward, but going back was not a way, and they could only hope that the Suzhou government could receive the news and send the arresting officials to eliminate the harm for the people as soon as possible.

Hearing this fact, Wang Fu muttered and scolded in his mouth: "What kind of world, even snakes can grow so big, and they come out to bring disaster to the world, have they become demons?"

Thinking of this, he panicked and hurried to discuss with Chen Jianchen.

Chen Jianchen is also a little uncertain, you must know that snakes can become demons, and the White Lady and Xiaoqing are typical representatives. But at present, it is difficult to judge without seeing each other. After all, if the species is special, the body of the snake will also grow extremely large.

"Liuxian, what do you say?"

Wang Fu asked Chen Jianchen to take the idea, and in this regard, he had already decided that Chen Jianchen was a master.

Chen Jianchen spread his hands, what could he do? He couldn't rush in and fight with the big snake alone, or "negotiate" with the courage of a horseman, that would be looking for death at all.

"Brother Futai, we can only wait like everyone else. ”

Wang Fu had no choice but to order people to make fire and make food, and solve the stomach problem first.

After lunch, I took a nap, and sure enough, there was news ahead.

Good news!

It turned out that the Suzhou government had received the report, and the Lord Zhizhou sent a general soldier with a hundred officers and soldiers to kill them - it came quite quickly, but they searched the woods on both sides of the canyon, and found no trace of the big snake, only a huge snake skin that had faded off.

With snake skin as proof, it can directly prove the existence of the giant snake, and taking it back can be regarded as a meritorious achievement.

Taking advantage of the escort of officers and soldiers, a group of merchant travelers hurriedly rushed over and entered Suzhou.

As he crossed the canyon, Chen Jianchen looked back from the carriage and looked at the reckless mountains behind him in a daze. Suddenly, he saw a large patch of trees halfway up the mountain, as if they had been cut down below, and they were broken one by one. Looking from below, it was like a wave suddenly tumbling out of the forest.

And the next moment, Chen Jianchen saw a huge and incomparable cyan snake wrapped around a tall tree, hovering upward, and the last huge snake head appeared on the top of the canopy, making a "look salute" to himself below.

It's watching!

Chen Jianchen could clearly feel that the green snake was like a human, condescending, looking at him from afar.

"Snakes, snakes are there!"

On the other side, there happened to be someone on the same side who looked back in the same direction as Chen Jianchen, and when he saw the big snake in the tree, he was so frightened that he screamed. With his shout, everyone looked up one after another, and when they saw that shocking scene, someone on the spot slapped their legs and sat on the ground.

Soon, however, the serpent slipped off the tree and quickly disappeared into the vast forest.

The whole process was seen by the general soldiers and a hundred officers and soldiers, but none of them offered to go up the mountain to fight snakes.

Such a big snake is simply terrifying, I have never heard of it, it is obviously unusual, who dares to go up the mountain to find its trouble? I can only rush back to Fucheng to report to Zhizhou, let the boss decide, and invite some strange people to accept it.

The carriage was rushing to Suzhou at a rapid pace, but Chen Jianchen in the car had long lost the interest in reading, thinking back to the scene just now, he always felt that something was wrong, that big snake, did he really have to open his mind and cultivate the demon body?

This world is really getting more and more bizarre and treacherous......
