Chapter 15: The Mutated Snake

The road is getting steeper and steeper, and the branches ahead are blocked and overgrown with weeds.

She took out the sickle from the basket, slashed through the obstacles, and walked up the hill.

There are some nine-story towers on the side of the road, and the growth is better than that under the mountain. If you want to come to the best, it should be at the top of the mountain.

The faint starlight sprinkled down, and the direction was still discerning. She struggled to climb up, and suddenly there was a "croak", and a cold creature kicked on the instep of her feet.

She kicked hard, only to see a toad thrown off—two toads the size of fists.

It's strange, the plants here are bigger than the average mortal, even the animals?

There was silence all around, and the starlight was gradually swallowed up by the shadows of the trees, and the further you went, the darker it became. Occasionally, the wind blew, and a whimpering sound sounded in the forest.

It is not at all that she is not frightened, but she came prepared: a scythe, a medicine to ward off poisonous mosquitoes, sulfur to repel snakes, and the sword that she won by gambling and drinking.

It's all here, and you can't go home empty-handed. She lit a torch, split through the thorns, and continued to the top of the mountain.

The road up the mountain is not easy at all, and the higher you go, the more trees flourish. The night was cold and wet, and her steps slipped repeatedly, so she had to use the sword as a crutch and climb up step by step.

The road grew darker, and the torch illuminated a small piece of the body. Her eyes were sharp, and she suddenly found a large rock in front of her, and the face below looked like a golden nine-story tower.

Quickly brushed aside the surrounding weeds, only to see that the nine-story tower had thick leaves, clear veins, and a layer of pale yellow on the leaf edge, which was really a high-grade golden nine-story tower!

She was ecstatic, and she could foresee Rong Fengheng's expression of smiling from ear to ear.

It seems that you don't have to go to the top of the mountain, just look around here, pick a pick, and you can go back.

**

Neatly picking a full basket, she pounded her sore waist - the success was complete, and she set off down the mountain!

After taking a few steps, her steps suddenly slipped, and she could barely stand, she lifted her feet to take a look, and pulled out a few long white threads from the soles of her feet, one end on the ground, extremely sticky.

Feng Ningshuang frowned, cut off the thread with her sword, tightened the basket, and continued walking.

After walking for another distance, the road became more and more sticky, and there were more and more brushed white lines under my feet. It stands to reason that the dew was heavy at night, but it could not have been so slippery, it was not at all the same as when she went up the mountain.

I dipped my hand a little, put it to the tip of my nose and sniffed it.

Fishy, very fishy.

After thinking for a moment, I was suddenly shocked: it's a snake!

Snakes are accompanied by mucus when they molt, and that's what that slime tastes like. But it's the first time she's seen it so sticky, it's not only sticky, but also drawn, disgusting.

She got goosebumps, and she met a toad bigger than the mortal world in front of her, and who knows what kind of mutation method the snake here is?

As soon as she had this thought, she suddenly heard a "hiss" sound behind her.

The wind condensed and froze, really afraid of something.

Although he was afraid, he stiffened his head and turned around tremblingly—suddenly, his pupils shrank, and half of his soul was scared away.

This should be a snake...... Right?

The "snake" straightened up, and the snake's head broke in half. Starting from the triangular head, the black-brown snakeskin slowly peels off, and a milky white thing emerges from it.

The milky white thing, also a snake, shook its head slightly, and its bean-like eyes glowed green, rising higher and higher from the black-brown snakeskin.

I've never seen a snake molt like this. To be precise, it's not like molting, it looks more like a snake has grown out of another snake's belly!

Aren't all snakes egg-born? What the hell is this?

Feng Ningshuang forced himself to calm down, and moved to the side little by little, and at the same time felt a handful of sulfur and held it tightly in his hand.

The snake didn't move, and when she quietly moved to the rock next to her, the snake's head suddenly turned, and its body suddenly jumped upward, and the bean-sized green eyes aimed at her, spitting out blood-red letters, "hissing" and screaming, and the milky white body completely came out, and crawled in her direction like lightning.

Feng Frost didn't have time to think of anything else, and with a wave of his hand, the sulfur in his hand was sprinkled on his face, and the torch shook forward at the same time. The snake stopped, then twisted and crawled towards her with incredible speed.

Feng Ningshuang suddenly saw this kind of snake that violated common sense, and knew that entanglement was not the way, so he pulled out the long sword on his waist and slashed at the snake.

Although this sword is full of bells and whistles, it is still sharp in the end, and with a bang, the snake was cut off! The upper body fell to the ground, twisting and struggling a few times.

Feng Ningshuang sighed, didn't dare to stay longer, chose another path, flew and ran down the mountain.

Before she could run two steps, there was a strange "hissing" sound behind her, and she couldn't help but look back - the snake body that was broken in two, twisted in a ball, and after a disgusting wriggling, it actually merged again, standing up without any damage, and the snake's head turned weirdly and looked at her again.

Feng Ningshuang was so frightened that he turned his head and ran forward, breaking the branches and raised stones that were growing all the way, and ran down the mountain despite the pain on his body!

Running, suddenly one of his feet slipped, lost his balance, and rolled down.

It's okay to just roll down, if you are caught up by that strange snake, you will definitely be swallowed alive!

She held her head and simply rolled all the way down, I don't know how many stones she had crawled along the way, how many thorns she had run over, and the pain made her die and live.

Suddenly, there was a "bang" and her back slammed into a large tree.

The tree happened to grow on the path where she had fallen, and it stopped her in a brutal manner, and the momentum of her tumbling stopped.

She screamed in her heart, struggled to stand up, but couldn't stand, the pain in her right foot was bare and piercing, and at a glance, her heart sank violently - it's over, I'm afraid it's broken.

"Bang", the basket just rolled down, and just fell beside her, full of baskets of golden nine-story towers, exuding a quiet fragrance.

But now how can I manage this? Feng Ningshuang hurriedly took out the sword at his waist, drew the sword out of its sheath, and looked at the dark place ahead, vigilant.

The "hiss" of the snake scraping against the ground sounded again, and a moment later, a huge white snake crawled out of the thorns, and swam towards her like lightning.

Come on, fight to the death! Feng Ningshuang gritted his teeth and confronted.

The snake swam a few steps in front of her, then suddenly stopped, straightened up in place, and spat out the letter, as if looking at her.

Scared, right? Feng Ningshuang clenched the sword in his hand, and the blade shone with a cold glow. I thought that if you dare to come again, I will split you into two more sections!

However, something happened to her stunned.

The snake twisted weirdly, with a "poof" sound, a pair of wings suddenly grew behind him, and under the faint starlight, the blood-red wings swooped into the air, soared into the air, and instantly found her location, and the blood basin opened a big mouth, and flew like lightning.

I'm done.

She thought so and closed her eyes.

The cold came and brushed her face, and she waited for the most cruel of deaths to come.

After a while, nothing happened......

When I tried to open my eyes, I saw that the snake had frozen into a block of ice and was lying stiffly on the ground.

A man with silver hair was standing beside her with a cold face.
