Chapter 119: Encounter the Demon Again

When Zhang Qing didn't pay attention, a faint gray shadow spread and spread on the grass where people and snakes were fighting. Due to the overgrown weeds and the churning dirt during the battle, this silent gray shadow was not discovered by Zhang Qing in time.

It wasn't until Zhang Qing dodged the snake king's tail attack on his side that he was able to dodge the attack completely, but when the snake tail moved completely according to the predetermined trajectory, it actually rubbed against Zhang Qing's sole, making him almost lose his balance.

Even in the fierce battle, Zhang Qing felt that something was wrong, the calculation in his brain was correct, and the trajectory of the snake's tail was not wrong, so it could only be his body that was wrong.

So he quickly set aside his mind to observe his physical condition. He soon sensed that something was wrong, and every time his feet fell to the ground, it was as if an invisible mud had wrapped around his boots, adding a slight invisible weight to the weight of his feet.

Every time his feet land on the ground, there will be a new weight increase, and this little increase in weight makes Zhang Qing, who has been in vigorous exercise, not aware at all, and accumulates it again and again, when he doesn't feel it, the weight of his feet and even his legs is already a lot overweight. I didn't notice it when I focused on fighting, but now that I calm down, I immediately feel it.

Looking at the ground carefully, his eyesight was far better than ordinary people, and he immediately saw an abnormal shadow on the ground, although he didn't know what it was, but since it was a trap carefully concealed by the Snake King, it was impossible for him to just add a little weight that was not in the way, and there was definitely a follow-up outbreak.

Zhang Qing didn't know what else the snake king had to do, but since he had discovered the shadows, his top priority was to get out of this shadowy meadow first, and then think about what the invisible and untouchable things wrapped around his legs were.

The snake king opened his mouth to bite again, Zhang Qing did not choose to continue to dodge, but used the knife to collide with the snake teeth with the same precision as the first fight.

Just like that time, the Snake King's huge strength not only made Zhang Qing's hands numb, but also knocked him out. However, this time Zhang Qing did not stop the castration as soon as possible, but kicked the ground with both feet while leaving the ground, and added a backward force to himself, making him fly away faster, and even dodged the long tail of the snake king attacking from behind.

The Snake King did not let Zhang Qing escape, even if it didn't know that Zhang Qing had discovered its secret hand, but the opponent's motive for wanting to stay away from it was clear, so it also accelerated forward, and arrived at his landing point faster than Zhang Qing in the sky, opening its mouth wide and waiting for him to throw himself into the net.

This is also the reason why Zhang Qing didn't think about using this method to stay away from the snake king when he just fought, the movement of the snake king is limited between square inches, but the sprint of the straight line distance is not slower than Zhang Qing, who is running light power at full strength, not to mention just taking off with the help of recoil force.

Zhang Qing, who was flying in the air, didn't even have true qi, it was impossible to control his direction, and he was about to fall into Shekou without resistance, and even Ah Longyin in the distance exclaimed and wanted to rush over to help.

However, Zhang Qing, who seemed to be in trouble, was not chaotic at all, he had already judged that the battle wisdom of the Snake King would definitely be waiting for him below, so he untied the scabbard behind his back early.

Seeing that it was about to land, he smashed the scabbard to the snake's head with a wave of his left hand, and then stepped out with a kick, hitting the top of the scabbard, not only giving himself the strength to rise into the air again, but also the scabbard accelerated twice, and smashed directly into its head without the snake king reacting.

"Whew!" This was the first time since the appearance of the Snake King that it made a sound, like the deep roar of Hong Zhong Da Lu was full of the anger of being played, and it did not sound like the roar of a snake, but similar to the roar of a beast.

You must know that Zhang Qing's scabbard is not ordinary wood, but a wooden core taken from the willow spirit. This wooden core alone has more than ten catties, which can withstand the weight of someone else's knife. What's more, its hardness is also unusual, Zhang Qing did not suffer any damage when he was in trouble, and just now he blocked the sneak attack of the snake king.

Even if the snake king's scales are thick and the armor is thick, it is only an easy defensive weapon, which gathers Zhang Qing's whole body weight and hits the bull's-eye, making the snake king who was smashed in the head extremely painful, and he can't even open his eyes for a while.

Zhang Qing turned over and landed on a muddy ground without weeds. Two consecutive take-offs allowed him to cross a distance of more than ten zhang, just out of the shadow-shrouded meadow. He looked towards the Snake King for the first time, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he realized that his sparkling move had caused more damage to the Snake King than all the slashes he had just made, and he was still rolling with his head and tail wagging his head.

He beckoned Ah Longyin to stay away from the edge of the pool, and was careful that snakes would sneak out of the water again, while carefully observing the gray shadows among the weeds. It was not clear just a glance, but now it seems that this shadow is like a faint gray mist. But to be honest, among the weeds in the sun, it is very easy to be confused with the shadow of grass blades, which is also the biggest reason why Zhang Qing did not find out in time.

He looked at his legs again, but there was nothing strange on his boots and pants except for the splashes of mud and grass stars, and even if he touched them with his hands, they were nothing. However, the extra weight still exists, although it is not sinking, but the weight of a few catties makes him absolutely not misjudged.

Just when Zhang Qing was wondering, the Snake King also recovered from the pain and glared at Zhang Qing viciously. At this time, the banter, ridicule, and cunning in its eyes were gone, and only naked killing intent remained. And between its eyes and on the large scale on the top of its forehead, there were obvious cracks and depressions, and it was obvious that Zhang Qing's blow to the scabbard still caused damage to the snake king.

When it found that Zhang Qing was groping for his legs, he instantly knew that Zhang Qing had discovered the trap he had laid, so instead of immediately pounced on it again, it opened its fierce mouth and roared at him again.

Just under Zhang Qing's gaze, a layer of pale gray mist emerged from his legs, like a circle of soft cotton wool. At the same time, he immediately felt the pain in his legs as if they had been pricked by countless needles, as if this mist was made up of steel needles that wanted to penetrate his meridians.

Now that it had been exposed, the Snake King no longer carefully controlled the gray mist, and as it swam forward, the gray mist quickly spread out and came to Zhang Qing's feet again. Fortunately, he pushed away Ah Longyin, who was approaching, when the gray mist appeared, otherwise the girl would have fallen into this strange mist.

As the gray mist dispersed, the temperature around Zhang Qing dropped rapidly, and under the warm sunset of this southern spring, a thin layer of hoarfrost formed on the ground at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Zhang Qing mobilized the internal qi in his body to fight against the strange gray mist that wanted to invade and corrode his legs, and there was no way to get out of the encirclement. And the internal qi could not be released externally, which caused that even if he could get rid of the gray mist that entered the meridians, he still couldn't isolate it outside the body, and this kind of behavior of fighting with the rude destruction of the invaders in his own territory was definitely very unwise.

Moreover, this decrease in temperature, the feeling of this strange aura invading the body, made Zhang Qing have a strange sense of familiarity, as if he had encountered it somewhere.

Finally, another flash of inspiration from the difficult confrontation finally reminded him.

It was when he first came to this world, the first day he stayed in the ghost house of Huinan Mansion, but he didn't expect to really meet a ghost. The temperature dropped when the female ghost appeared, and the pinprick-like sting caused by the willow demon branch hitting her body were all the same as now, but they were weak compared to the Snake King, and even Zhang Qing, who was new to martial arts, couldn't control it.

And when he received Wei Xiangzi's knowledge transfer in the bamboo forest valley, although the three of them had never seen a monster, after all, thousands of years of inheritance were still there, and Wei Xiangzi judged that the attack on Zhang Qing and the lowering of the temperature at that time were carried out through demon qi, which was also a clear sign of a demon. For demons, wisdom is very important, but the existence of demons is the foundation of whether demons are demons or not. Of course, demonic energy can stimulate the wisdom of wild creatures, which is also a consensus of human beings for a long time.

A demon is not a strong force to be considered a demon, just like Ou Boni saw the two fighting black beasts and buffaloes a few years ago, even if they have strength stronger than the innate peak, but if there is no use of demon energy, they can only be regarded as foreign beasts. And the female ghosts and willow trees that Zhang Qing encountered, even if they were trampled to death by the two strange beasts without looking at them, they had no power to resist, they were still demons. Alien beasts are only physically powerful, but the demonic aura of demons has ten thousand possibilities; alien beasts are basically born strong but have an upper limit, but demons can allow them to break through the limits of their own race.

In other words, the snake king in front of him was not a long-lived and intelligent beast or alien beast that they had judged before, but:

"This is a demon! Ayin be careful, this is a demon!"
