Chapter 489 Hardship
“Ten Yin Saint Son?”
There was a name in Kong Ning’s voice that was familiar but unfamiliar to Zhang Xuezhou.
Zhang Xuezhou has heard too much about the Ten Yin Saints, but Zhang Xuezhou has only met the Ten Yin Saints once.
That time was the beginning of his cultivation, and also the beginning of his wandering. It is also the beginning of Zhangjiazhuang’s blessings and misfortunes to this day.
It was a poisonous python with a beautiful body and a single horn.
“Isn’t that poisonous python the Holy Son of the Ten Yins?”
There are many secrets hidden in Zhang Xuezhou’s heart, not only involving his experience in real society, but also the consequences of swallowing demon meat. Entry opportunity.
He always thought that the Shiyin Saint was eaten by everyone in Zhangjiazhuang, but Kong Ning’s words shook his mind.
“If that poisonous python is not the Shiyin Saint Son, who is that poisonous python?”
"If the Holy Son of Shiyin is Ba Snake, how did the other party make his adoptive father, Zun Shang and other great demons believe in death?"
"Is the real body of Holy Son of Shiyin Ba Snake?"
......
Zhang Xuezhou did not spread his copper wings to watch the excitement.
As long as Kong Ning can determine the answer, he can ask more questions in the future.
Compared with his current flying ability, Kong Ning, who is good at flying, has obviously better tracking ability and will get a more accurate answer.
"The snake demon can actually fly, so my flying advantage is not that great. Add to that the fact that I have to lie down for seven days at a time, and this guy's revengeful mentality is so strong..."
Zhang Xuezhou's thoughts turned to Ba She's true identity, but he soon turned to the issue of his own safety.
Thinking of the arrow that Ba Snake transformed into a human form and shot, he quickly had the idea of leaving Shujun City, and even farther away from Wen Weng and Dong Zhongshu.
With these two people blocking the gun, Zhang Xuezhou felt that he would not be targeted.
"There is a huge crowd, where are you going to find me!"
Zhang Xuezhou previously thought that Ba Snake's Eyes might be the target of Ba Snake's pursuit. Not only did he think so, but Dong Zhongshu and Wen Weng also thought so.
But in tonight's operation, the trap of the Eye of the Snake was not taken seriously at all.
Even when Ba Snake flew over the city wall, One Eye did not even glance at the trap.
Zhang Xuezhou felt that Ba Snake might really be unable to sense the eye demon treasure. After all, Zhang Xuezhou lost his arm and hand, or he lost a magic weapon and it would be difficult to get it back.
After experiencing such a high-intensity test, Zhang Xuezhou felt that he would have no problem collecting the Eye of the Snake.
He even had the idea of taking away a sum of money to buy medicine and then run away as fast as possible.
“What a shame, I let the Naba Snake escape again!”
After fighting several times, even if the Ba Snake turns into a human form, it is still a monster that everyone can recognize after meeting.
Zhang Xuezhou dodged an arrow, while Dong Zhongshu received an arrow and was shot in the shoulder. There is still an arrow stuck in his arm.
He almost wanted to curse, but his good Confucian scholar temperament forced him to pay attention to his behavior, and all his resentments finally turned into "hateful".
“You are good at martial arts and you didn’t even dodge an arrow?”
Looking at Dong Zhongshu who came to seek treatment, Zhang Xuezhou inevitably complained.
“You don’t know that the demon is very good at shooting cold arrows, and he will be hit without missing a beat.” Dong Zhongshu shouted in pain: “I was performing the spell on Zhao Liang, but I never thought that he was nearby.”
“This snake demon is so insidious!” Zhang Xuezhou nodded in agreement.
"That's not good!"
Dong Zhongshu nodded repeatedly.
Unless his opponent uses his realm to overwhelm him, he rarely suffers a loss in a fight.
However, he encountered Ba Snake three times in a row, and each time he returned more or less embarrassed. Dong Zhongshu not only felt that the passing of the year was unlucky, he also felt that his technique was not good as Zhang Xuezhou said, and he was proud of it. His various abilities have met opponents that are difficult to target.
The variety of spells brings various targets, but when encountering force to overcome skill, none of his various methods can decide the outcome in one fell swoop. This is related to the quality of the spells he currently controls, and even more to the realm he has been imprisoned for a long time.
Thinking of Ba Snake, Dong Zhongshu thought of Ba Snake's courage, and he even thought of the realm exploration that he couldn't ask for.
“Life is difficult!”
Dong Zhongshu complained.
“Look at what you said, you will understand the meaning of life when you are hit by an arrow,” Zhang Xuezhou said.
"You don't understand my hardships!"
"It's even harder if you don't see it!"
Dong Zhongshu feels that he has lived a hard life, while Zhang Xuezhou feels that it is hard luck for an unlucky guy like himself. .
He once thought that his life was limited to Zhangjiazhuang, but he never knew that the world he encountered after stepping out would be so bizarre.
Although he received considerable benefits, Zhang Xuezhou has been living a precarious life.
This was the case even if he returned to the Han Kingdom. Zhang Xuezhou even experienced a test of life and death a few days ago.
In terms of hardship, Zhang Xuezhou has experienced a lot and has no feeling about it.
“It’s hard for me to be a county guard!”
Wen Weng climbed up the city wall and looked around for a long time before he came to interrupt.
On the second night of guarding the snake trap, the trap was not taken by the Ba Snake, and the Ba Snake entered the city instead.
The other party did not want to take back his demon treasure, but took revenge. The scale of this behavior was far beyond Wen Weng's imagination.
Whether it was driving snakes at night to kill Dong Zhongshu and others, secretly shooting with a bow, or other unused strategies, Weng Weng became aware of an extremely difficult opponent.
If the other party's arrangements were not fully in place, and Zhang Xuezhou arrived in time to deliver the magic weapon, Weng Weng felt that it would be very difficult for Shu County tonight, and he, the county guard, was not to blame.
"Is it hard to be a county guard?"
Zhang Xuezhou and Dong Zhongshu complained in low voices almost at the same time, feeling that Weng Weng's hardship was unreasonable.
But everyone's complaints all meant one thing: everything they were doing at the moment was ruined.
The Shu County family that Wen Weng is responsible for has a great business, and they are panicked and do not know how to deal with the revenge of a big monster like Ba Snake. Dong Zhongshu, on the other hand, has no skills. This time, Ba Snake only shot him in the arm. It may fall into your throat once.
As for Zhang Xuezhou, his behavior was no different from usual, and he had a small mentality of running away.
The three parties each have their own thoughts, but the three parties have to stay in Shujun City.
Weng Weng is the county guard, and Dong Zhongshu is the official sent to inspect the incident in the Academy. Dong Zhongshu does not want to return to Chang'an City so soon.
As for Zhang Xuezhou, he just didn't have the money, and he didn't have enough Bigu Powder and other medicines to travel far.
"Ahem, Master Dong, how about you use Zhao Liang's magic power to trace the source again?"
Thinking of the wedding banquet payment he needed, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but encourage Dong Zhongshu to solve the problem as soon as possible.
His opening made Dong Zhongshu feel a little helpless.
"Naba Snake is very vigilant. The reason why he left Zhao Liang behind before was because we didn't notice anything unusual. When I use Zhao Liang to locate him, he should be able to dispel the magic on Zhao Liang, just like It’s the same as the eyeball you picked up. Now I’m short of traceable casting supplies!”
"That means?"
"That means now I can't use Zhao Liang to locate Ba Snake!"
Dong Zhongshu was a little sad, but Zhang Xuezhou felt happy in his heart.
If Ba Snake no longer controls Zhao Liang, this means that Zhao Liang is likely to return to normal sanity, and the Zhao family can also hold a wedding banquet with the Zhang family.
This good thing happened so quickly that Zhang Xuezhou felt that his life was not difficult at all.
