Chapter 32: The World Is Greedy and Unbridled

On this day, Bai Lan had just finished a day's cultivation when he suddenly smelled the breath of a human being.

Ten Thousand Snake Mountain often has human beings entering it on weekdays, and Bai Lan doesn't care, but today Bai Lan moved, because in his perception, at least dozens of people broke into Ten Thousand Snake Mountain, and the last time so many people were those martial arts people who wanted to take their own snake gall.

Bai Lan looked at the green snake sleeping in the cave, shook his head helplessly, and climbed out of the valley while the eastern sunrise.

Outside the valley, beside the swamp, a group of people entered the mountain noisily.

At the head was a fierce bald man, followed by thirty or forty snake catchers, and three others were dragged into the mountains by their clothes.

Among the three men, there was an old man, who shouted with a frightened face: "Please don't go inside!" You can't go into the mountains to catch snakes these days, the snakes are mating and giving birth, and you rush in like this, Liu Xian will not let you go! ”

When the bald man led by him heard this, he spat out, "Old man Jiang, you are afraid that our snake catcher gang will rob you of your job, so you will make up some snake demon to deceive us, right?"

I advise you that it is better to explain to me, where is the snake nest? Otherwise, I'll throw my two sons into this swamp!" ”

After the bald head finished speaking, he waved his hand, and immediately two people took ropes and tied up the two young people who were struggling, who were the two sons of this old man Jiang.

The two young men struggled hard, but it was obvious that they could not resist these snake catchers, their hands and feet were tied, and even their mouths were gagged with coarse cloth.

Seeing this, Old Man Jiang said hatefully: "Yu Gouxing, if you dare to hurt my two sons, I will not let you go even if I turn into a ghost!" ”

The bald head sneered: "Devil? You think too much of yourself, you're an old ghost at best. In front of me Yu Tianxing, it's a terrible ghost, and I have to take a detour when I come!

Old man Jiang, there are only two seedlings left in your vein, you have to think about it carefully. This time, our snake catcher gang must make a lot of money, and the guys who eat have brought it, you must know this snake nest in the mountains, you don't want to disappoint our brothers. ”

Old man Jiang looked at the people with unkind faces, as well as the two sons who were struggling to resist, he was sad in his heart, he knelt down with a thud, and bowed miserably: "Lord Liu Xian! It's not that the villain is insatiable, but that he is forced to have no way out and is cornered. If you don't dislike my old bones, you can use them as a crutch, but please forgive my two sons and leave a bloodline for my old Jiang family! ”

A fat man kicked Old Man Jiang with a smile, kicked him to the ground and covered his face with mud, and said with a smile: "Old man, you also come to a full set of plays?" Also a snake fairy? Hehe, in front of our snake catchers, there is a snake demon in front of us, and we have to take a detour! Hurry up and tell where the snake nest is, or throw your two sons into the pond now, and see if the snake fairy in your mouth will bless your son? ”

Yu Tianxing saw that the old man was screaming miserably and refused to speak, so he said coldly: "Toast and don't eat and drink, go, throw his little son into the pond." ”

Immediately, the two big men drove the second child of the Jiang family who was struggling and threw them into the swamp where several water snakes could be seen swimming from time to time.

Old man Jiang's eyes were red, and he desperately stepped forward to save his son, but he was surrounded by three or five big men and could only watch his son struggle in the water in horror.

Old man Jiang howled angrily and rushed towards Yu Tianxing desperately, but he was punched by the other party and flew out, and even spit out a lot of blood.

"Old man Jiang, the second child is dead, and there is the boss. Now, you're really the only seedling. Do you say it or don't you say it? In this year of famine, the brothers are counting on the snake nest to make a fortune, and cutting off people's wealth is killing people's lives. You have to think about it. ”

Old man Jiang finally couldn't help it, cried out loud, and said weakly: "Okay, I said, I said." ”

The boss of the Jiang family, who was tied hand and foot on the side, couldn't help crying, he was extremely resentful in his heart, hated this damn snake catcher gang, hated himself for being weak and powerless, hated this unfair God, his younger brother was thrown into the pond and he couldn't do anything, his father was insulted and he was also powerless, the good can only be bullied, and the strong do whatever they want to take pleasure in humiliating the weak, is this the world of the jungle?

A group of people took the Jiang family's father and son away, and went to the place of the snake's nest, they were also snake catchers, and the old man Jiang just wanted to take the wrong companion to be able to detect it.

Therefore, the group rushed to one of the several snake nests in Ten Thousand Snake Mountain.

The reason why these snake catchers have their hearts on snake nests is because the inheritance from their ancestors tells them that where snake nests gather, there must be strange treasures.

Even if there is no strange treasure, due to the gathering of snakes in the snake nest, there must be many snake moults, snake scales, cherished herbs, and even a group of snakes entangled, they can directly catch hundreds of snakes in a nest, if they catch one by one, they are afraid that they will not be able to catch so many in ten days and half a month.

In the Ten Thousand Snake Mountain, there are more than ten snake nests, large and small, and there are really treasures in the snake nests. Those were some of the rare plants that Bai Lan ordered the snakes to guard that might grow into spiritual herbs and elixirs.

The group left, but they didn't find that the second child of the Jiang family, who should have sunk to the bottom of the water and drowned, or was bitten to death by a group of snakes, did not die.

Several giant pythons wrapped their snake bodies around the unconscious second child of the Jiang family, dragging his body to the shore, and the half-conscious second child was so jolted that he choked out a few mouthfuls of water, and he opened his eyes in a daze and thought that he had been rescued? Did Dad tell me the location of the snake's nest, or did the conscience of those wicked people find out and save themselves? It's just that the body feels weird, like it's wrapped in something.

But when he opened his eyes, he almost flew out of his soul.

I saw three giant pythons with thick bowls entangled around his body, dragging him to walk in a strange way, the cold touch of the snake's body penetrated deep into his bones, Jiang Lao Er couldn't help but shudder, and he fainted again.

Here, Old Man Jiang showed everyone the way, and said weakly: "I strayed into here a few years ago, and walked straight three or five miles from this river, which is near the snake's nest. You are all connoisseurs, and you should be able to see that I am not lying to you.

I've also brought the place, you should let us go, right? ”

Yu Tianxing said with a smile: "Old man Jiang, in this barren mountain and wilderness, you are also old, what if you encounter any beasts?" It's better to come with us, and when you get down the mountain, you will naturally let your father and son go. ”

Old man Jiang hurriedly shook his head, "No! Liu Xian once dreamed that this is a forbidden place, and you must not step into it. If you don't believe it, forget it, you have to let my eldest son go down the mountain first, otherwise I will die and will not lead you again. ”

Yu Tianxing saw that the old man's attitude was so hard, and sneered: "Okay, I'll let your eldest son go, but if you have tricks, when we go down the mountain, you can still torture your son to death!" ”

As he spoke, he turned his head and ordered, "Let him go." ”

The big man of the snake catcher gang listened to the order and loosened the tie on Boss Jiang.

Old man Jiang said with tears in his eyes: "Boss, go and find your second brother." Even if it is dead, you have to see the corpse and take it home for a good reunion. ”

The coarse cloth was ripped off from the boss's mouth, and he ignored his swollen lips and whimpered and cried: "Dad! Do you believe in that Liu Xian? Our family is fragrant every day......"

"Boss! If you want to recognize me as a father, go find your second brother for me right now! Old man Jiang shouted.

Old man Jiang paused when he heard this, wiped away his tears, got up and said, "I'll go look for it." ”

Yu Tianxing walked over and said with a smile: "Now you should rest assured." Don't lead the way. ”

Old man Jiang walked straight ahead without saying a word, towards the cave of ten thousand snakes deep in the mountains.

Yu Tianxing led the crowd to follow, and everyone walked all the way for half an hour and finally came to the snake's nest.

Yu Tianxing and the others saw that there was nothing around, and they couldn't help but ask.

"Old man, where is the snake nest you are talking about?"

Old man Jiang said coldly: "You have to think about it, you can still live if you enter here, but if you step into the snake nest, you will never be able to get out of this Ten Thousand Snake Mountain again!" No one gets out alive, never! ”

A few hot-tempered men were about to scold him angrily, just as there was a commotion in the distant mountains and forests, and countless birds fluttered their wings and flew into the sky, which was extremely spectacular in this group of mountains and wilderness.

Several men felt slightly weak in their hearts, and they forgot to beat and scold Old Man Jiang for a while.

Yu Tianxing sneered: "Don't pretend to be a ghost for me, and tell me where the snake's nest is?" ”

Old man Jiang took two steps forward, stretched out his hand, and said, "That's the snake's nest!" ”

Everyone looked for the direction, and saw that the clear water in the lower reaches of the river had become muddy, and it had turned from a mountain stream into a large river two or three zhang wide, stretching without despair.

"Where? Didn't you lie to us, you bad old man? There is no snake den but a river? A big man scolded.

"You think it's a river?" Old man Jiang replied coldly.

"What do you mean?" Dahan looked carefully, and suddenly found that there was a river, it was clearly an endless snake tide, and countless snakes were entangled and coiled together, most of which were black, gray, and brown, so it looked like a black muddy river from a distance.

The big man's face turned pale, his feet were weak and he almost knelt on the ground, "Oh my God! That... It's all snakes? ”

Thousands of snakes are superimposed, densely packed, stretching for miles, and the impact of such a picture on a person is too terrifying, and it is even more fatal to people with dense horror fears.

Yu Tianxing laughed, "It's really a big snake nest." This time we really sent it. Quick, get me guys! ”

Old man Jiang said: "Don't you even follow the rules handed down by your ancestors? Don't catch the snake three times! These snakes are all breeding and giving birth to snakes! ”

Yu Tianxing sneered, "Pedanty! No wonder you have lived next to this treasure mountain for more than ten years and are still a poor old man. It is precisely because they are all multiplying and giving birth that we are easy to catch. ”

"Quick! Let's do it! ”

"Okay! The helper has spoken, let's do it quickly! ”

"Hurry up and find out, if there are any treasures around here, if we find any treasures, we will send them!"

……

One by one, greedy humans walked towards the group of snakes with various snake trap bags.

Seeing this, Old Man Jiang could only kneel down and pray, waiting for death.

When he was young, he had entered this Ten Thousand Snake Mountain, and had seen too many greedy people buried in this magical mountain forest, and later he became a snake catcher and asked for a statue of the willow fairy, which was placed at home to worship, and asked the willow fairy to guide and bless.

Originally, he didn't believe in these evils, and he just wanted peace of mind. Unexpectedly, one day he dreamed of a big white snake and told him that he could not enter the mountain tomorrow and could not enter the mountain to catch snakes.

He told his mother-in-law about this, but he was stopped by his mother-in-law. Later, the snake catchers who went into the mountains that day came back, but they were all bitten by poisonous snakes, and either broke their arms or had to cut off their legs to survive.

Since then, Old Man Jiang has believed it, and he is extremely loyal and incense every day.

For so many years, he was the only one in the snake catching village who was safe, and there had never been any trouble, and every time he entered the mountain, he came back intact. After the people in the village inquired about him, they all invited a statue of a willow fairy to worship at home.

There are very few people in the village who have accidents, and the snake catchers in the village follow Liu Xian's instructions to catch snakes and hunt snakes, and their lives are gradually healthy, and they can fill their stomachs, of course, they can eat snake meat.

Later, in order to thank Liu Xian for his mercy, the village specially invited a disciple to go out of the hall for Liu Xian on June 6 and became the village of Zhu Ma Xian, who could not only bless peace but also see a doctor and provide disaster relief.

Therefore, June 6 of each year is the birthday of Liu Xian in the village, and it is also the day of leaving the hall.

He also gave birth to two sons with his mother-in-law, passed on the lineage, and lived a stable life without major ups and downs.

But just a few days ago, the snake catcher gang in Jinzhou fled to the snake catching village, and heard that there was a snake nest in the mountain, so he forcibly coerced the old man Jiang to take him up the mountain to find the snake nest.

At this moment, the old man Jiang was still praying, "Liu Xian is merciful, our family has no fate to ask you to be a family immortal, so we can only set up a hall for you in the village to be a horse fairy, and worship incense day and night for more than 20 years, please be merciful and bless my two sons to get out of the mountain alive!" ”

However, at this moment, no one listened to his prayers, and the greed of the snake catchers overwhelmed the shock, and one by one they attacked the snakes that were breeding and laying eggs in disregard of the rules handed down by their ancestors.

A big man opened the snake trap bag, picked up the snake bamboo, and smeared some e-liquid on the bamboo, and vigorously put the snakes into the snake catcher bag coated with sulfur.

His face was full of excitement and said, "Boss, we really sent it this time." I think there are several rare snakes in there, and they can be sold for a lot of money if they are kept. ”

Yu Tianxing had a smile on his face: "You have no eyesight, there are so many snakes in this group, there must be some treasures in them." You all give me sharp eyes, and call me as soon as you find out! ”

Everyone nodded in agreement, but there was an abacus in their hearts, what treasure did they really find, who wouldn't want to take it for themselves?

Yu Tianxing was still bewitching everyone: "There are so many snakes in this snake nest, wait for us to catch more next time, so many snake materials, enough to make a lot of good wine, a jar of snake wine is worth more than selling some snake meat." When the time comes, we will save enough money, settle down in Qinan Mansion, take a fat buttocks and hug a few big fat boys, and we won't have to deal with these beasts anymore in this life! ”

Everyone obviously liked his words, and they were full of energy, and they were full of snakes.

Everyone was busy sweating profusely, when suddenly a gust of mountain wind blew and felt cool.

A big man smiled: "It's really cool in this mountain." ”

"Cool is cool, but how do I feel that the wind is swishing, and my heart is panicking." Another big man twisted his neck.

"Oh, yes. I also feel that the wind is getting colder and colder. ”

"Looks like it's going to change? You see, the sun was still shining just now, and it was cloudy for a while. Is it going to rain? ”

"Then we have to hurry up, hurry up and fill the bags and go down the mountain, or our guys won't be able to do it." Yu Tianxing urged everyone.

The group of people all nodded, after all, once it rained, all kinds of snake medicine on their bodies and in the snake trap bag would be washed away by the rain and lose their effectiveness.
