Chapter 217: Colorful Snow Toad
The two of them walked along the forest path stepped out by the herb picker and walked all the way to the depths of the mountain.
Although it is deep in the mountains, you can occasionally see some household garbage, mineral water bottles, snack packaging.
Obviously, there are still people who can come to this place.
"The people who can come here are not only medicine pickers, but also professional travelers." Wang Chuanwu discerned the direction, "It's not far from the deepest part where my master and I went." ”
Wang Chuanwu often went out with Tianyuan Dao to collect medicines, and it was not the first time he came to this place, but he went a little deeper last time.
They stepped on an herb called purple grass, purple all over, only palm-high, which treats rheumatism and gout.
This herb is special and is only available on the southern slopes of Longyan Mountain.
This time, they didn't come to collect medicine, so the speed was much faster, and it took about an hour and a half to get to the place Wang Chuanwu said.
It was a circular valley with extremely lush vegetation, and in the middle was a large waterhole surrounded by moso bamboo.
"That's it, my master and I stepped on enough herbs here and went back." Wang Chuanwu said.
Han Chuxue also mentioned that they had poured a waterhole, and the situation he described should be here.
Long Tian also found some food packaging near the bluestone on the edge of the pool.
Although the area of this waterhole is not large, the cold is very heavy, and the water is cold and pulls out the bones.
"The master said that this pool of water is connected to the underground river." Wang Chuanwu found a few purple gold grasses in a piece of rubble, stepped on them casually, and stuffed them into his bag.
In the grass by the pool, Long Tian found some withered plants, as if frost had struck.
Searching along these plants, it didn't take long to find half a red snake.
The red snake is the most venomous of the local venomous snakes, but this one is only the back half, and the head and the front half are missing.
"Strange, what eats half of the snake?" Wang Chuanwu felt fresh.
"It's not big, you can't eat the whole one, but it's fierce." Long Tian picked up half of the snake with a branch, and the broken part was black and still bleeding.
"Fresh?" Wang Chuanwu immediately looked around vigilantly, this thing had just been bitten to death.
"It should still be ......nearby," Long Tian stared in the direction of the extension of the withered vegetation, a situation that only a snow toad with a very cold air could do.
Colorful snow toads grow in extremely cold places, and the cold will leave a cold air in the places where the body cold, and these vegetation will wither because they can't stand the cold temperature.
Suddenly, a very heavy cow bark came from the depths of the woods.
"Are there any bison over here? Haven't heard of it. Wang Chuanwu felt strange, it was not the first time he had come here, he knew better than anyone what this place was.
Unless it's a farmer's lost cow, how can it run into such a deep mountain?
"It's the cry of a colorful snow toad." Long Tian immediately ran in that direction.
"How big is a snow toad? Can you make such a big move? Wang Chuanwu also followed.
After running forward for more than 100 meters, Long Tian suddenly stopped, and Wang Chuanwu was caught off guard and almost hit his back.
"What's wrong?" Wang Chuanwu asked in a low voice.
Long Tian waved his hand, signaling her not to speak, and pointed to the front and told him to take a closer look.
Wang Chuanwu noticed that there was something in the grass in front of him, and after a closer look, he was numb all over his body.
It was actually a giant python, five or six meters long and the thickness of a human leg.
The python was staring in one direction with its head held high, motionless as if facing a great enemy.
At first, Wang Chuanwu didn't understand it, but after a closer look, he found that the python was lying on a stone in that direction.
At first glance, the thing was snow-white, and a pair of red eyes were particularly conspicuous, but when I looked closely, I found that the thing was glowing with colorful halos, and it was actually a toad the size of a palm.
Colorful snow toad, a thought came to Wang Chuanwu's heart, but this thing is too small, right?
The python was huge, and the colorful snow toad was like a melon seed in front of it, not enough to stuff the teeth.
But the giant python stared at the snow toad like a great enemy, and did not dare to move, as if it had lost to the little thing in momentum.
This big and small faced each other for a long time, as if they were still, and no one moved.
Suddenly, the python shrank its head and went straight to the snow toad like lightning and bit it.
The snow toad also jumped up, opening its mouth in mid-air and spewing out a white cold air.
The python seemed unprepared, and was sprayed all over his head by the cold.
The python that spoke of it paused in an instant, and collapsed in the grass, and a layer of ice crystals faintly appeared on the head of the python that he said, and it soon condensed into ice.
This little snow toad was so powerful that a breath of cold air erupted, freezing the python's head into an ice lump.
The snow toad jumped down from the stone twice and came to the python's side, bit the python's abdomen and tore it open, and swallowed the snake's gall directly.
This little thing was so violent, Wang Chuanwu was dumbfounded.
Long Tian took out a small hand-shaking net from his bag, this thing was a bit like a five-claw golden hook, except that there was no hook in front of it, but a net pocket.
This thing is specifically designed to catch small prey.
Long Tian slowly lifted the net, shook his hand, opened the net pocket, and went straight to the snow toad.
Just when the net pocket was about to cover the snow toad, a bamboo arrow flew suddenly, directly through the net pocket, and stuck to the back of the snow toad on the body of the python.
The colorful snow-capped mountain was frightened, and with a jump, it fell directly into the grass in the distance, and disappeared in three or two clicks.
"Who? Coming out to make trouble at this time? Wang Chuanwu was furious.
"Wang Chuanwu, what are you doing here? Good thing to do bad for me. A petite figure turned out from behind a tree not far away, his face full of anger.
The person who came was a girl who looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, with a beautiful face, dressed in green clothes, carrying a bamboo basket behind her back, which was full of medicinal herbs.
"Miss Yuluo......" Wang Chuanwu was stunned.
"Why are you robbing my snow toad?" Yuluo jumped lightly and landed in front of Long Tian and Wang Chuanwu.
"Yours?" Long Tian frowned.
"I've been here for three days, and I'll catch it, and I finally got a chance, and you paid it again, accompany me to the snow toad." Yuluo said arrogantly.
"If you have time to play tricks here, it's better to chase after it." Long Tian bypassed Yuluo, and a longitudinal leap had already gone out for dozens of meters.
Miss Yuluo was also taken aback when she saw him move so fast, and immediately chased after him: "The snow toad is my ......"
"Alas, don't worry, wait for me." Wang Chuanwu raised his legs and chased forward.
But after this run, he realized that his speed was far inferior to the two in front of him.
In this forest, he was as light as a swallow, but he was as stupid as a bear, running and jumping, never getting up, and often tripping over the vines on the ground.
But despite this, he still chased forward for a long time, but soon found that the two men were nowhere to be found, and only he was left.
Just as he was stunned, a low roar suddenly came from the forest, and a huge black figure rushed out......
