Chapter 444

In the late autumn season, not to mention the north, even the Central Plains, it is obviously full of cold.

However, in the south, it still feels extremely warm.

Skirting the hill, the further you go inside, the more warm and humid it feels. In fact, this kind of environment does not feel very comfortable for Zhang Zhan and others.

Zhang suddenly stopped, and turned his head to look into the depths of the grass.

Xie Guoan and the others saw Zhang Yan's brows tightly locked, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhang Yan shook his head: "It's not dangerous, but I think it's a little strange!"

As soon as his words fell, the rest of the people also heard the sound of rustling in the grass, and when they looked at it, it turned out to be just a thick and strong poisonous snake.

This is a king cobra.

The eyed king snake is also nicknamed the mountain snake, the mountain peak, etc., its temperament is fierce, and its reaction is extremely agile. Anyone who knows knows that it is far from being the most venomous snake in the world, but it is better than the large amount of detoxification, and it can still easily take people's lives.

At the same time, it is also the largest venomous snake in the world.

The main food of the king cobra is other snakes, so it is difficult to see other species of snakes in the territory of the king cobra.

This king cobra, although it is quite large, five or six meters long and half a waist wide of an adult, is not beyond the normal range of all king cobras.

If you compare it to the giant white snake that Zhang saw in the misty forest and was about to transform, it was like an earthworm, without the slightest threat.

Although the intelligence of animals, of course, cannot be compared with humans. But their keen sense of the environment and their sense of danger far exceed that of humans.

Therefore, Zhang Yan had already stared at this poisonous snake with a pair of cold eyes. Then, it stands to reason that it should be frightened by Zhang Yan's glance and turn its head and run as far as it can.

That's why Zhang Yan said "a little strange".

Although it didn't dare to take a step forward, it still spit out the letter and stared at Zhang Yan and the others without blinking.

Zhang Yan shook his head helplessly, and said lightly: "If you don't leave, you will be stewed!"

Unexpectedly, Sang Cai made a silent gesture towards Zhang Ran, and without waiting for Zhang Zan's words, she took two steps towards the king snake and stared at it carefully.

Seeing this, Zhang Yan couldn't help but remind: "Be careful!"

With Sang Cai's martial arts, in the face to face, he will naturally not be bitten by an ordinary poisonous snake, even if it spews venom, he can't imagine that a drop can be stained on Sang Cai's clothes.

Sang Cai turned his head and smiled at Zhang Zhan, signaling Zhang Zhan not to worry.

Then, she slowly stretched out her little hand and slowly stretched it towards the snake's head.

It is very surprising that this big snake did not have any intention of dodging or attacking, but also lowered its king head, so that Sang Cai's tender fingers easily touched the top of its head.

Zhang Yan was confident that under his own coercion, this big snake did not dare to act rashly, of course, he did not completely relax, and still focused his attention on Sang Cai and the big snake, lest there be any accidents.

Sang Cai seemed to be extremely happy, and smiled excitedly and said, "It turns out that it's really you!"

Then I saw that the big snake looked extremely intimate, wrapped around the delicate body of the silkworm, and put its upper body on Sang Cai's shoulder, as if he had seen an acquaintance.

Sang Cai explained with a smile: "When it was born, it was almost bitten to death by another snake, but I rescued it at that time and raised it for a few months. Later, before I went to Songshan, I put it in the mountain, but I didn't expect it to recognize me! It's been thirteen years!"

According to the old people, snakes and Jiao are the only animals that can evolve into dragons, so snakes are very spiritual.

Of course, whether the snake can evolve into a dragon and become an existence soaring for nine days, of course Zhang Zhan has not seen it, and perhaps no one in the world has seen it at all. But this statement is very popular.

Having said that, the giant white snake in the Misty Forest, as far as the heavens say, seems to have really practiced for nearly a thousand years.

Zhang Yan thought about it, and then withdrew the coercion that shrouded the snake.

Hua Ao saw that Sang Cai and the big snake were so kind, so he came to Zhang Yan's side and asked in a low voice, "You say, is that snake male or female?"

Zhang Zhan suddenly cried and laughed: "You are also a strange thing in ten thousand, you don't even let go of a beast's vinegar, according to your current momentum, the second half of your life is really only left to take revenge on society!"

The big snake didn't seem to want to leave, and Sang Cai didn't seem to have the intention of driving it away. With an extra snake as a companion, Zhang Yan and the others naturally have nothing, and the little junior sister and the senior sister Du are obviously a little unnatural on their faces.

Women are inherently afraid of this, and rightly so.

And now, Zhang Yan is not qualified to help the little junior sister strengthen her courage, because such glory and preferential treatment already belong to the senior brother Xie Guoan.

I don't know why, Zhang Zhan suddenly felt that even a snake was so affectionate and righteous, but so many people, although they claimed to be the most intelligent species in the world, were not as good as a cold-blooded animal in terms of knowing how to repay their kindness.

After glancing at the little junior sister snuggled in Xie Guoan's arms again, Zhang Yan chose to be temporarily blind.

Along the way, Sang Cai also acted as a tour guide, pointing to the smoke on the left side of the far, far away: "There, is the territory of the Miao people!"

The Miao people are good at forging blades, and the pair of heavy hammers in Wan Yan's hands are made by the Miao people's knife casting masters. Although the pair of hammers have no form but no god, they are still rare treasured weapons in the world.

The Miao people's favorite weapon is naturally the Miao knife. A Miao knife carefully crafted by a divine craftsman can be called an artifact, which is enough to cause a bloody storm on the rivers and lakes.

However, this kind of magic knife is rarely circulated in the world.

Because in general, for thousands of years, the Han people have indeed played the role of an "invader". Therefore, it is an indisputable fact that all ethnic groups collectively hated the Han people at that time. Then of course the Miao people will not spread this kind of magic weapon easily.

There are also thieves who don't open their eyes, and they want to touch into the Miao village to steal it. Without exception, they were beheaded by Miao masters one by one, and their bodies were also hung on the door of Gaozhai to be exposed to the wind and sun.

Over time, such means completely scared away all those who had bad intentions.

In addition to Miao Dao, Miao people also have a perverted fear: Seed Gu!

In the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce, Zhang Zhan had seen Situ Zheng who was tricked by Bi Yinyao.

Situ fought for a good child, but he became the slave of Ba Yinyao's old witch, and he obeyed Ba Yinyao like a lost soul, and even did not hesitate to murder his childhood sweetheart and flower-like fiancée for Ba Yinyao.

And in the end, Situ was ruined, and the future of his life was completely ruined.

Originally, in the eyes of people, Situ Zheng should have been a great and courageous person.

It's a pity that he was destroyed by this kind of "Gu".

From this, it can be seen that the Gu of the Miao nationality is prestigious, which is enough to make anyone stay away.

Based on the tense relationship between the Han and ethnic minorities at that time, even if Zhang Zan's and others did not steal the knife, I believe that the Miao people would not give Zhang Zan's and others a good face.

In case of encountering a person who finds fault with Zhang Chuan and others, and makes all kinds of trouble for Zhang Zan, there will be another big fight. As far as the rumors are concerned, the Miao people are good at using knives, their subordinates are amazingly powerful, and Zhang Yan and others are outnumbered, and it is very likely that none of them will survive.

Some people may ask, how can you be so unlucky that you can meet someone who "finds fault".

In fact, this is not an uncommon thing at all, because when the Han people who trade with each other with these ethnic minorities, when they go deep into this place to trade, don't they suffer enough of the cowardice? These are not secrets at all!

Fortunately, they were scolded and beaten, but there is no such thing as a "profiteer" among these aliens, and there is always one thing to say and two to say, so even if they have a blue nose and swollen face, these businessmen still make a lot of money on their waists.

Naturally, after the merchants returned to the Central Plains, they inevitably vomited bitterness and called these ethnic minorities with the word "barbarian".

In fact, Sang Cai is very right, since ancient times, the Han people have persecuted these ethnic minorities. Now, being hated by others, and then being punched and kicked by others, is regarded as paying off the debts of the ancestors!

In short, on the Sangcai Road, in order to avoid unnecessary troubles and disputes, it is generally deliberately circled and tried to avoid the gathering places of various tribes.

Therefore, it would have taken only one day to travel without hurry, but it took Zhang Shui and others a full five days.

Or the children are the most simple, the most "ignorant", their world, only very simple dragonfly like happiness, and there is no love and hate racial plot.

After entering the village of the Bai people, Sang Cai did not return home for a long time, and she was wearing Hanfu, which was obviously different from the colorful costumes of the Bai people, so she was not recognized at the first time.

Fortunately, the local accent did not change, and she said to the Bai compatriots who ushered in, and turned these Bai guards with steel knives in their hands, vigilant and implied hostility, into a spring breeze on their faces.

But even so, these guards still looked at Zhang Yan and the others with a little disgust.

So along the way, the only people who can give Zhang Yan and others a smile are these children who don't know anything.

In general, the differences between races can be seen in the clothing.

Most of the men of the Han nationality wear deep solid colors as clothing, representing the introverted and calm nature of the Han people. Let Zhang Chuan and the others wear such colorful and splendid clothes as the Bai people, they must feel that their bodies are full of awkwardness and discomfort.

And these guard men of the Bai clan, the color on their bodies is not inferior to butterflies at all, or even more so. But they're clearly used to it, and there's some of their overall style of enthusiasm, optimism, and inhibitions.

Oh, the so-called "enthusiasm and optimism" is their performance when they met Sang Cai, but it has nothing to do with Zhang Chuan and others.

"You say, is the relationship between these clans also very tense?"

"What do you mean by that?" Hua Ao answered.

If it weren't for the little junior sister who also asked the reason, Zhang Yan wouldn't even bother to look at Hua Ao now, let alone explain the reason to him!

Or is it because Hua Ao just focused his attention on Sang Cai's body, otherwise, he would definitely be able to see it easily.

When these Bai guards surrounded Zhang Yan and the others and rushed out, the kind of solemnity on their faces was no longer limited to the vigilance and nervousness of ordinary patrols. Zhang Yan sensed it very clearly, the chill on their blades was a thick murderous aura, if they felt that the situation was wrong, they would immediately kill them, and they would not tolerate mercy.

Regardless of the fact that the word "barbarian" is a slander of ordinary people against them, even if they are really unreasonable, they should never collapse so tightly and on the verge of breaking out.

Therefore, if Zhang Yan's guess is correct, the Bai people must have encountered some trouble or enemies recently, so the atmosphere of the storm has made the village so dull and depressing.

Suddenly, the village became thunderous, it turned out that a lot of Bai people poured out of the village, the first is a graceful, still pretty woman, with tears in her eyes, hugged Sang Cai.

Sang Cai also screamed a syllable like "Ma Ma", and hugged the woman with a cry.

That must be Sang Cai's mother!

"Senior Sister Sang's emotions fluctuate, will it affect her Dao heart, thereby damaging her martial arts cultivation?"

Huaao doesn't speak, and when he speaks, people want to slap him.

Zhang Zan: "Don't you think that your concern seems to be very out of the right point? Miss Rensang has not been home for more than ten years, and now she finally sees her mother, and you have deprived others of the right to shed tears and excitement? This is the most basic nature, which may be suppressed, but it can never be completely extinguished, understand, my stupid son?"

This time, even Senior Sister Du, who had been at odds with Zhang Zhan, stood on Zhang Zhan's side: "Senior Brother Hua, have you really fallen for something evil recently? How can you even say such a big thing about the scenery? Fortunately, Senior Sister Sang didn't hear it now, otherwise, with just this sentence, you will lose the opportunity to win her heart forever!"

Huaao was scolded by you and me, and he could only have a bitter face and accept the siege of everyone.

This Huaao, it seems that Sang Cai is really his nemesis! Before he met Sang Cai, he behaved perfectly, and even he may be the "head" of the next generation of the Songshan faction, Zhang Zhan didn't feel anything wrong. After all, in the Songshan faction, there is also a young master who has already shocked Huaxia - Night Dust!

And now look at Huaao's performance, not to mention comparing him with Ye Ranchen, but anyone who is not a fool is much better than him.

It's not that as the head of the house, you can't be tempted by the opposite sex. In this way, Huaao, as a leader who will take charge of the rise and fall of the entire sect in the future, will he become sluggish and stupid when he encounters any other "nemesis" in the future.

This is highly doubtful.

Zhang Zhan secretly thought, it seems that Huaao's life is still smooth, he has not experienced the baptism of relatively large tribulations, and he has less maturity to deal with things without being surprised.

If Huaao can't change, then in the future, between Sangcai and Songshan faction, he will probably need to give up one.
