Chapter Ninety-Two: Desperate to Break into the Python's Den
Xue Ning sat on the flame bird, not relaxing the idea of looking for Sister Yu'er, she used a pair of dexterous eyes to deftly look through the branches and leaves of the jungle to check the abnormal whereabouts in the forest below.
The Flame Bird flew back with her, and after about two cups of tea, Xue Ning suddenly noticed something unusual in the jungle below. Next to a tree bearing fiery red wild fruits, scattered a sparkling pearl hairpin. The little light that was occasionally refracted by the midday sun and reflected from the jungle did not escape the eyes of the flame bird and Xue Ning, who hurriedly beckoned the flame bird to land carefully to check the situation in the forest.
The flame bird fluttered its wings and slowly flew down, safely bypassing the staggered branches of the tall trees and staying on a flat spot before letting the snow down from its back.
As soon as Xue Ning's feet touched the ground, he immediately ran a few steps to the place where the pearl hairpin fell, and observed it carefully.
Zhu Hai lay quietly on the fallen leaves, without the slightest sign of damage, but it seemed that when the Yu'er girl was picking wild fruits, she was accidentally dropped from between the branches of her hair, but after a closer look, Xue Ning felt that something was wrong.
Because she saw a field of red and bright fruits scattered next to the pearl hairpin, this strange sign showed that Miss Yu'er must have had an accident.
Xue Ning looked around, carefully looking for the traces of Miss Yu'er, but she had seen all the surrounding shrubs, and she had not found any trace of Miss Yu'er.
"Strange, Sister Yu'er was taken away by something, otherwise she wouldn't have scattered the wild fruits she was going to bring to everyone, let alone discarded her beloved pearl hairpin on the grass. There must be something strange in this. ”
She picked up the pearl hairpin, looked at it carefully, and put it next to her nose to sniff gently, but she smelled a fishy smell, thinking about it carefully, she suddenly woke up, that strange smell, she seemed to have smelled it just now.
"Giant pythons have inhabited here, so the grass has left the smell of giant pythons, so this pearl hairpin also has some residual smell of giant pythons. ”
As soon as she thought of this, Xue Ning couldn't help but express the doubts and judgments in her heart.
"Oh no, Sister Yu'er must have encountered danger, could it be that she was concentrating on picking wild fruits for everyone, but she was accidentally attacked by a giant python and was eaten by a giant python?" Xue Ning muttered worriedly.
"No, Sister Yu'er will never be eaten by a giant python easily, she is so clever and smart, she will be more vigilant in everything, not to mention that she often walks in the wild, she will definitely not be eaten by a giant python so easily. As soon as Xue Ning's words fell, Chenhua and Ziyan, who came in a hurry, had already heard Xue Ning's little girl's terrifying remarks,
"Brother Chenhua, look at this pearl hairpin. Xue Ning handed the pearl hairpin she picked up in her hand to Chenhua to see, "I just smelled the smell of a giant python on it." That's why I'm worried about Sister Yu'er, and she ....... ”
"No, no, Sister Yu'er will be fine. Seeing the pearl hairpin in Xue Ning's hand, Chenhua's face suddenly turned pale, this pearl hairpin was personally given to Sister Yu'er, he was young and ignorant at the time, and saw that many girls in the palace were wearing jewelry hairpin rings on their heads, so he begged his mother to give him a trick to play, and then he secretly gave it to Sister Yu'er. Sister Yu'er is like a treasure, and she has always kept her hairpin in her bun. It will never be discarded in this wilderness.
Thinking of this, Chenhua's heart thumped loudly, and a torn pain spread in his chest again, and that familiar pain made his heartache, which had just healed, tear open a new opening, and blood kept dripping.
The queen mother and uncle have passed away, leaving only him and Zijin brother to rely on each other, Yu'er's sister has watched him grow up with him since he was a child, second only to the queen mother's sister, he can't lose her anymore, and he can't lose her anymore.
Chenhua shook his body and searched in the nearby bushes in a panic.
"It's useless, third elder brother, I've seen it all, Sister Yu'er is not here, we need to find another way. Xue Ning saw Chenhua's dejected appearance and hurriedly reminded him.
After hearing Xue Ning's words, the flame bird nodded and chirped, and then, it shook its head, flapped its wings, and desperately signaled in one direction, intending to tell everyone to follow it.
Chenhua and Purple Smoke were so clever that they quickly understood what the Flame Bird meant.
"Let's go, let's go quickly, follow the flame bird, and we will definitely find Sister Yu'er." Ziyan and Chenhua said in unison.
Everyone didn't dare to stay longer, so they hurriedly took the pearl hairpin and followed the flame bird all the way.
The flame bird led the group through the rugged jungle, and after running for more than half a mile, they came to a low-lying place in the middle of the jungle, where the mountain springs flowed, and the wild flowers were in full bloom, quiet and pleasant, and it looked pleasing to the eye, if it were not for the search for the jade girl, everyone would really want to step into the clear spring water again to wash.
The flame bird walked near the stream, lowered its head, and sniffed carefully, as if it had found some clues. The group followed the flame bird across the river, turned a few bushes, and came to a stop in front of a cliff. At the edge of a pit, the flame bird chirped softly and flapped its wings, motioning for everyone to come down and investigate.
In order to find Miss Yu'er as soon as possible, the third elder brother jumped down without hesitation while holding on to the small tree on the edge of the cliff, followed by Ziyan and Zimo Xuening, who also jumped off the cliff and went down to the depths of the pit to check the traces.
The flame bird also jumped down when it saw Xue Ning, flapped its wings, and flew down from the cliff several meters high.
"Everyone be careful, this seems to be the lair of a giant python!" Ziyan called out his sword from the fairy fox space, and held it tightly in his hand, guarding against the surroundings, reminding everyone of humanity.
On the side of the pit under the cliff, there was a bush that grew unusually luxuriantly, but when they approached this bush, everyone smelled an extremely fishy smell, which was the breath of the giant python they had once smelled.
"Sister Yu'er, is she in the giant python's lair?" Xue Ning asked the flame bird in a low voice in surprise, and the flame bird seemed to understand Xue Ning's question, and nodded quickly. It's just that when Xue Ning also wanted to follow everyone's footsteps and step into the python cave, the fire crow bird grabbed Xue Ning's clothes with its mouth and refused to let her in, as if there was a great danger inside.
Xue Ning smiled calmly, patted the flame bird's head affectionately, and comforted it, "Don't worry, little bird, we'll be fine." Seeing that Xue Ning had made up her mind, the flame bird had no choice but to let go of her clothes and let her move forward, but it itself followed Xue Ning every step of the way, vigilantly watching the movements around her.
Everyone pushed aside the bushes, endured the fishy smell, and explored along the rugged and dark cave, suddenly, the purple smoke girl screamed, it turned out, I don't know when, in this cave, there have been countless poisonous insects and poisonous snakes crawling silently, although the size of those colorful poisonous snakes is not large, but countless poisonous snakes are crowded together, which looks disgusting and even more chilling.
"This is a cobra, and there are five-step snakes, all of them are highly venomous, everyone must be careful!" Zimo once followed his mother to the mountains to hunt, and his mother taught him to identify all kinds of poisonous snakes, so he easily called out the names of various poisonous snakes.
"What are we going to do? I haven't seen a python yet, it's been trapped by these little poisons. ”
After all, Chenhua was a human race, and it was the first time that he was surrounded by so many poisonous snakes and poisonous insects, and he couldn't help but feel a little timid in his heart. But in order to save his sister Yu'er, he had to bite the bullet and risk the determination to die, and continued to break into the depths of the cave.
Although Ziyan is a woman, in order to protect her sister and everyone, she also gave birth to countless fighting spirit and courage out of thin air.
She knew in her heart that the loss of Miss Yu'er this time had a lot to do with her, if she hadn't been in a hurry to lead the way to save Zijin, she wouldn't have forgotten to sit on the big tree to mark, if she hadn't forgotten to make a mark, she wouldn't have lost the direction of her progress and was isolated.
Although no one blamed her too much, she couldn't let go. Now that she finally has the opportunity to make up for her mistakes, she will naturally take the lead, hoping to be the first to see Miss Yu'er, save her, and atone for her sins.
The poisonous snakes that had blocked the direction of progress were held high one by one, and in the dark cave, they spit out snake cores and hissed sounds, intimidating the people who broke into the cave.
The Purple Smoke Girl waved the sword in her hand, and swept the leaves all the way to the autumn wind, cutting out all the poisonous snakes that stood in the way. Zimo followed closely and continued to clean up the poisonous snakes, so that Chenhua and Xue Ning, who followed closely behind, were correspondingly much safer.
Under this operation, everyone could finally buy their feet and continue to move forward, but just after walking a few steps, they heard Xue Ning scream, which pierced the silence of the cave and made everyone's hearts tremble.
Everyone turned around and looked in the direction of Xue Ning's finger, and found that at some point, on the mountain rock at the top of the cave one meter away from everyone, there was a black python. The python was obviously much bigger than the one he had just encountered in the woods, and the pair of green eyes that glittered in the dark cave were the size of a fist, and the green eyes of the python stared at everyone coldly, as if to convey a signal, none of you should try to escape from me.
Seeing the huge size of the giant python, everyone was a little panicked, but in order to save people, they had to calm down and deal with it calmly.
