Chapter 43: Crisis

The man at the head was resentful, and he cursed, and when he looked up and saw the two of us, he immediately stopped.

"Now that the rain is getting heavier and heavier, why don't the two little brothers find a place to shelter from the rain?"

I didn't answer, but glanced at the strong man's smiling face, presumably tempting us.

The man at the head looked at the two of us, smiled awkwardly, and then said: "Don't hide it from the two little brothers, his grandmother's really happened to something strange, we have been going west, and we have never turned around, why did we come back from the east?"

"How did you get in touch with that person just now?"

"You mean the second?". The leader was stunned for a moment and slapped his head sharply. "This second child has been gone for so long, why hasn't he come back yet, sixth child, why are you going to see what's going on?"

"Big brother, I... Let's not be separated, I always feel eerie around me."

The cold wind swept through the forest, and the sixth man shivered, wrapped his clothes tightly, his eyes were full of horror, and he looked around vigilantly.

The leader stretched out his palm and slapped it on the head of the sixth man with a "snap". "Look at your unproductive appearance, it stands to reason that the second child and a few of them should be back now, why haven't there been any movement?"

Suddenly, there was a "rustling" sound in the forest, and I hurriedly followed the sound to see that the rain was pouring down from the canopy, and something seemed to be wriggling in the rainforest.

"What's that?"

I clenched the crimson sword, my brows furrowed, and in an instant, a sharp sword qi rushed straight away, and there was a loud "click", and the thick tree fell to the ground in response.

Mu Yu held a bow and arrow, and the arrow pointed directly at the dark forest.

"That's... What's that? ”

The sixth child exclaimed. His pupils constricted, his pale face turned hideous, and his eyes showed horror.

I stared ahead, a three-foot-long, bowl-thick object floating in the air.

A flash of lightning flashed, and I took the opportunity to look, only to see that the object was black all over, and the hard scale armor was glowing with golden light. The head is triangular, the eyes are glowing green, and the two sharp fangs in the upper and lower jaws are shining with cold light, and they are "hissing" and spitting letters.

"Snakes floating in the air?". I was shocked.

Before I could react, the golden snake opened its mouth wide and bit with a "whoosh".

Mu Yu rose into the air, and in an instant, an arrow shot out, hitting the head of the golden snake with a "boom".

"How so? It didn't work for it."

A hint of surprise flashed in Mu Yu's eyes, the arrows were specially treated and had strong corrosiveness, and even hard fur like Ataruga could not resist it, what was the origin of this snake?

After the explosion, I hurriedly jumped up, waved the red sword in my hand and slashed away, "clanging frame", the blade collided violently with the body of the golden snake, making a deafening sound.

The golden snake twisted, and a mouthful of venom erupted from its mouth, and I hurriedly dodged sideways, flipping in the air, keeping a certain distance from it.

The venom fell to the ground, mixed with the rain, making a "sizzle" sound, followed by a puff of green smoke that quickly spread through the rain.

"What the hell is this from his grandmother?"

"Big... Big brother, I think we'd better get out of here quickly."

I glanced at the two people hiding behind the tree, the golden snake didn't seem to notice the two, and kept biting at us, could it be...

Thinking of this, the fluorite in my hand slammed into the golden snake, and the explosion of "boom" sounded, taking advantage of this opportunity, my figure moved slightly, and appeared behind the two in a blink of an eye. The crimson sword in his hand shone brightly, and in an instant, a sharp sword aura flew towards the golden snake.

Although this blow did not cause damage to the golden snake, the powerful impact still knocked its body back several meters.

The golden snake stabilized its body, its whole body shone with golden light, its green eyes were dead, and its mouth made a "hiss" sound.

"His grandmother, you're trying to kill me"

The man at the head looked at the golden snake that was rushing at great speed, cursed, and hurriedly dodged.

The golden snake twisted its body like a sword off the string, and its speed was extremely fast. I held my breath and fixed my eyes on it.

"Ahh

I let out a loud shout, and just as the golden snake was only about a foot away from me, I grabbed its throat with my left hand, twisted it violently, and slammed its body into the ground from the air.

With a "bang", the crimson sword in my hand slammed into the throat of the golden snake, blood splattered everywhere, and a pungent stench mixed with blood poured into my nose.

At the same time, I lifted my foot and pressed its head to the ground to prevent it from spewing venom. Then he swiped hard, and the blade of the sword slashed from its throat to its abdomen, and the rain mixed with blood, and the ground turned red.

The golden snake writhed its body vigorously, making a "hiss" scream, and as the crimson sword cut the last inch of its skin, the golden snake gradually stopped struggling, and its stiff body lay straight on the ground, letting the rain wash away.

I sat down on the ground, looking at the body of the golden snake in front of me, gasping for air. At this time, I only felt the heat steaming all over my body, and beads of sweat mixed with the rain kept sliding down my face.

"Grandma's, I'd like to see what you are."

The leader stepped forward from behind the tree and pulled the golden serpent's corpse with a branch, and the internal organs poured out of the severed abdomen, and a foul smell came to his nose. Because of the rain, the stench wasn't too choking.

Mu Yu put away his bow and arrows, walked to the corpse of the golden snake and squatted down, his eyes scanning the remnant body, his brows furrowed slightly, and his expression was solemn.

Perhaps because the golden snake was dead, the golden light from its whole body had dissipated, and its jet-black scale armor had gradually weakened.

"The flying snake, his grandmother's, it's the first time I've seen it in my life, the sixth child, I'll wrap this thing later"

"Big brother, this thing looks so scary, don't ask for it." The sixth looked at the corpse of the golden snake, his whole body couldn't help but tremble, and he said timidly.

"Something that doesn't make a difference"

I got up, my eyes fixed on the depths of the forest, and everything around me was hazy under the torrential rain. The rain beat the leaves, the wind whistled overhead, and the sound of the rain was the only sound in the dead mountains and forests.

Mu Yu stood up, stretched out his hand to wash off the snake blood remaining on his fingertips with rainwater, his expression was cold, and he followed my gaze to the dim forest.

"Elvis, what do you think of the current situation?"

"We have to find a way to deal with it first!"

"What's the solution?"

"This snake has a peculiar smell that paralyzes people's nerves and confuses people's eyes. I felt something unusual when I first met it, and if it hadn't been for the rain to suppress the smell, I'm afraid we would have died a tragic death at the hands of the other party."

Mu Yu's brows were furrowed, and there was a little doubt in his eyes.

"Now you might see here?"

Mu Yu looked down and saw a big hole in my clothes under my armpit, which was obviously a trace of a flying arrow.

"What's going on?"

"Your arrows are not directed at the serpent, but at me"

"I can see this clearly, I was very strange at the time, why did you suddenly fight among yourself if you didn't fight the snake." The sixth interjected.

"Infighting?"

Mu Yu turned his head and looked at the corpse of the golden snake, very puzzled.

"If I'm not mistaken, we must have been in close proximity to the snake, and the smell of the snake's body caused us to have the illusion that we were the enemy. The two of them got out of the way early, so that's why they'll be fine."

"So you hid behind us in order to find the snake, and his grandmother's, the snake flew at us and almost killed us"

Suddenly, there was a "hissing" sound from the depths of the woods, and the sounds gradually converged, from far and near.

I clenched the crimson sword, stared at the emerging black shadow, and muttered, "It seems that there is not only one this time"
