It was easy to reach the halfway up the mountain, and finally saw Tianchi lying in the snow like a piece of clear jade, and it was difficult to see even the traces of beasts by the pool, let alone the traces of the giant python. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Ruo Tan was a little worried that the giant python was hibernating, and if so, any efforts made by Brother Chen would be in vain.

The two looked for clues along the edge of the pool, and Ruochen suddenly let out an "ouch" and fell into Zichen's arms.

Zichen hugged her and asked nervously, "What's wrong?"

Ruo Tan said: "I seem to have stepped on something strong." ”

Zichen bent down to open the thick snow and saw a pair of broken animal bones.

Ruo Tan also bent down, took out a beast horn from the beast bone, and asked Zichen: "Brother Chen, look at what kind of animal horn this is?"

Zichen smiled and took the whole sheep from his shoulder, and compared its horns with the horns in Ruochen's hand: "What do you see?"

Suddenly came to his senses, smiled, stared at her solemnly, and said, "You mean-"

Ruo Chen nodded: "That's right, the bones of these sheep should be left behind after being swallowed by the giant python."

While other carnivores bite their prey, the skeleton of the prey should be intact, while the python swallows its prey, so the bones of the prey will be shattered in the peristalsis. ”

Zichen looked around and said: "Since this broken sheep skeleton has been found here, it means that the nest of the giant python is likely to be near here, let's look for it." ”

The two of them pulled in the snow for a while, and when Ruo Chen's hands were about to freeze off, he suddenly heard Zichen say in a low voice: "It should be here!"

Ruochen hurriedly turned around and walked to his side, and saw a bucket-thick hole in the ground, people couldn't climb into it at all, the hole was covered with corpses, and there were many people's heads inside, presumably the so-called spirit python had eaten a lot of people who came here to play.

Ruochen shrank into Zichen's arms in fear.

Zichen wrapped the cloak tightly on her body, carried her and flew to a tree, and said, "You just stay here, I'll go down and poke the giant python out." ”

Ruo Tan grabbed his sleeve and said, "Be careful." After thinking about it, he said: "The eyes of the giant python are blind and can't see anything, it relies on spitting letters to feel the subtle changes in the temperature around it to judge the direction of the other party to attack, if it encounters danger, Brother Chen only needs to bury himself in the snow." ”

Zichen said: "I have memorized everything, and you have to be careful yourself." After that, he flew down from the tree, and stabbed the hole in the ground with a branch, and after only a few stabs, he felt that something inside quickly and strongly jumped out, hurriedly threw the branch, and pulled out his sword from his waist, only to see a red-eyed python rushing out with a roar against the branch.

Zichen flew up and jumped up, inserted the sword precisely into the seven inches above the python's head, and moved backwards quickly, but the python rushed forward by inertia, and in just a few moments, a giant python was cut in two from its back, and the blood pillar continued to gush out along Zichen's blade.

Ruochen was thrilled to see from the tree, her scalp tingled, and the thick smell of blood in the air made her retch.

Zichen picked it with his sword, picked out the courage from the python's belly, took out a piece of cloth to catch it, wrapped it in his hand, and flew down from the tree to pick up the stupid Ruochen.

As soon as the two of them took a few steps, they suddenly felt the sound of whirring wind behind them, turned around sharply, and were surprised to see another black-eyed python popping out of the giant python hole, pressing the body of the dead python, and galloping towards them like a wind.

Zichen dragged Ruochen and ran, but there were many trees near Tianchi, and the snow on the mountain was too deep.

Seeing that he was about to be caught up and buried in the belly of the python, Zichen hugged Ruochen and sank into the snow, and the two disappeared in an instant.

The python swooped into the air, and was looking around when a sharp sword suddenly pierced its body from the bottom up.

The python twisted and rolled in pain, stirred up the snow, and suddenly plunged the python's head into the snow.

Zichen abandoned his sword and rushed out of the snow with Ruochen in his arms, and threw Ruochen onto a tree branch to hang on.

If you sit on a tree with your hands and feet, look down nervously.

The giant python came out of the snow in pain and pounced on Zichen with his sword.

Zichen quickly stepped back, his back against the trunk of a tree, and immediately stepped on the trunk with both feet up the tree.

The giant python immediately came, hovering and winding around the trunk of the tree to chase after Zichen, with the intention of not giving up on his death.

Zichen flew down from the tree and pulled out his sword from the giant python, and immediately the wound was bleeding.

Taking advantage of the fact that the giant python was in great pain and was entangled in the tree, unable to go up or down, he flew up with a sword and pierced its seven inches with a sword and nailed it to the tree.

The giant python, which was still menacing a moment ago, flopped like a rope and hung on the trunk of the tree.

Zichen hugged the stunned Ruochen down, felt her body trembling in his arms, patted her back and comforted, "Don't be afraid, it's okay now." With that, he picked up the blanket and the whole sheep that had fallen from the fight from the ground and put them on his back, and pulled Ruochen to leave.

Ruo said, "We can't just leave. ”

Zichen looked at her questioningly.

"The corpses of these two giant pythons must be disposed of, otherwise when the spring flowers bloom, some herdsmen will come up to offer sacrifices, and find that the spirit python has been killed, and the murderer will definitely be traced, and then it will be a big trouble. ”

Zichen smiled: "This is easy. "Fly up the tree, hang the whole sheep on the top of the tree, pull out the sword from the python, and fly down.

The python slammed into the snow, sending the snow flying in all directions, shaking the snow from the nearby trees.

Ruo Tan patted the snow on his head and asked puzzledly, "What are you doing here?"

Zichen wiped the body of the sword on the snow, wiped the blood stains on it, and then put the sword into the sheath, and replied, "Bring the vultures here, and they will take care of the aftermath for us." ”

Ruo Chen nodded: "That's a good idea." They found a few pieces of ice to freeze the snake gall, and the two of them went down the mountain.

Halfway down, they saw the shadow of vultures in the sky, first only one or two, and when they reached the foot of the mountain, there were already a dozen of them circling in the sky, and then swooping down.

The big black horse waited loyally in the same place, and Ruochen ran over with joy and joy, wanting to touch the horse's head, but fearing that it would be unpleasant to touch it, kicked himself away.

Zichen walked over, grabbed her hand and touched the horse's back, and said, "If you are good to it, it will be good to you." ”

The big black horse flicked its tail happily.

The two got on the horse, Zichen discerned the direction, walked east with Ruochen, and arrived at a small town in the evening and found an inn to stay.

Ruo Tan had not sat on horseback for so long since he was born, and he was so upset that his whole body was about to fall apart, and as soon as he entered the room, he immediately collapsed on the bed to rest.

Zichen said: "First eat a full meal, then sleep well, nourish your spirits, and go back early in the morning." (To be continued.) )
