Chapter 838 Miao leader
It was almost noon, and they had not yet broken out of this illusion. The fox and others were a little anxious.
Chu Yuexi and others must have been trapped in the illusion. They have been trapped for so long, and they don't know if they are still alive.
And poison...
Just as he was thinking about the poison, he heard a rustling sound coming from around him.
Everyone was shocked and looked around.
I saw that the surrounding ground, trees, grass, and rocks were covered with little snakes as thick as fingers, some were green, some were red, some were black, and they had stripes all over their bodies, and their eyes were as big as mung beans. , staring at everyone coldly, spitting out horrifying words at them.
Xia Zihan was most afraid of this kind of boneless thing. Seeing so many small snakes, the pores all over her body opened, making her hair stand on end and shuddering.
She turned pale and subconsciously leaned towards Chu Jingqi. Chu Jingqi patted her back and coaxed softly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here, it's okay."
He was obviously wary, but he still found time to comfort her, because he knew that his Ayu was most afraid of snakes, caterpillars, mice, and other soft-bodied creatures.
The first time he met her, he saw her being chased by a python and shouting for help.
Now that I think about it, the python has become the matchmaker between them.
"I...I'm not afraid, I just feel a little scared." Xia Zihan swallowed her saliva, but her eyes were fixed on the snake closest to her, for fear that the little snake would suddenly attack her.
Even with this expression, are you still afraid?
Chu Jingqi took out the long sword from behind with one hand, put his other hand around her slender waist, and told her, "For a while, you close your eyes. You don't need to do anything for this little snake."
Xia Zihan hummed.
However, although the snakes surrounded them, they did not attack them. Chu Lin muttered, "They must be afraid of the smell of the medicinal powder on our bodies."
Only then did everyone remember that they all carried the medicinal powder packets that Xia Zihan had stayed up late to make last night.
"Then what should we do? We can't just confront them until dark, right?" Chuan Qiong asked worriedly.
If a group of snakes attack together during the day, they will not suffer any loss just by reaching out, but if it is dark and a group of snakes attack again, their danger will be greatly increased.
"Let's go back and take a look first." Ao Tianchen said.
They carry powdered medicine that snakes are afraid of. They hope that these little snakes will not attack them and let them retreat first.
Ao Tianchen took the lead and retreated along the ribbon.
The little snake seemed to have realized something, and looked a little restless. It crawled around, wanting to attack, but it seemed it didn't dare.
Ao Tianchen moved forward, and the little snakes moved back. Seeing that it was useful, everyone moved back along the ribbon.
But after retreating more than 20 meters, the little snake suddenly seemed to have received some order. Even if it was afraid of the medicine powder on them, it rushed towards them desperately.
Chu Jingqi wielded the sword with one hand and protected Xia Zihan with the other hand, preventing the little snake from jumping on her.
Although Xia Zihan was afraid of small snakes, when the snakes actually attacked them, she became calm and strong. She drew out the soft sword from her waist, slipped out of Chu Jingqi's arms, and swung at the dozen or so small snakes flying towards her. There were more than a hundred people present, all of whom were experts in martial arts. With one swing of their swords, they could cut off several small snakes. Within a moment, the ground was covered with a layer of bloody snake corpses.
There were too many little snakes, thousands of them, rushing forward one after another, fearlessly rushing forward without fear of death. No matter how they killed them, they seemed to be unable to kill them all.
The sky gradually darkened, and finally before dark, everyone worked together to kill all the little snakes.
For two and a half hours, everyone was too tired to lift their hands. If the ground hadn't been so dirty and covered with little snake corpses that were broken into pieces, everyone would have collapsed on the ground.
There were also a dozen guards who were accidentally bitten by small snakes. Small snakes are highly venomous and their skin would begin to turn black as soon as they were bitten. Fortunately, these guards were clever and immediately sealed the acupuncture points at the bitten places to slow down the process. The snake venom spread.
But it only slowed down, and the snake venom was still spreading to other places.
There were no herbs to treat snake venom around. The dozen guards thought that when the snake venom spread to their bodies, they would die. But after the war stopped, Xia Zihan said, "The medicine powder package I made contains snake venom." If you put the medicinal powder on the wound, the snake venom will be removed quickly.”
When the dozen or so guards heard this, their eyes were full of joy and excitement, just like a person who has reached a place of despair and suddenly sees a way out, with twists and turns and bright flowers.
They didn't have to die anymore and were very grateful to Xia Zihan.
The fox picked up a few smaller snakes that were slightly cleaner, scurried onto the long sword, and said with a smile, "Finally we don't have to eat dry food tonight, but it's a pity that we didn't bring a pot. A pot of snake soup will definitely be delicious. .”
"Huh, how long has it been? Are you thinking about eating?" Chu Lin glared at him, and the fox said innocently, "Why don't you think about me? Wife, don't I think about you not being able to eat well? After a while, you will watch Come on, let me bake the little snake for you, I guarantee it tastes great.”
The rest of the people who were not injured also began to clean up the body of the little snake, removing the internal organs and head of the little snake, and scraping the skin, leaving a snake body no thicker than a finger.
Chuan Qiong and Gan Song built a fire. Chu Jingqi pulled Xia Zihan and sat down next to the fire. He was worried that Xia Zihan would get cold if he sat on the ground, so he stretched out one leg. Let her sit on it as a stool.
Xia Zihan was not polite. After sitting down, she snuggled into his arms with her whole body. The movements were so familiar that she seemed to have done them thousands of times.
This couple is used to being affectionate and affectionate, and they never shy away from people. Along the way, whenever they rested, Xia Zihan basically fell asleep in Chu Jingqi's arms, and Ao Tianchen and others were also early. I'm not used to it.
In the beginning, Ao Tianchen was jealous of Chu Jingqi. After he got used to it, he was no longer jealous, but he was very envious.
I envy Xia Zihan and Chu Jingqi that they can never leave each other, rely on each other heart to heart, play the piano and the harp in harmony, and live happily.
In the evening, after eating roasted snake meat, everyone was tired and sleepy, so they arranged for some people to take turns to keep vigil before resting.
At ten o'clock in the middle of the night, on a distant peak, two pairs of eyes stared coldly at the fire on their side.
Among them, a tall and thin man asked a petite and exquisite woman next to him, "Chief, what should I do? They killed all Xiaoyan's little snakes."
"Trapped them first," the woman said, "Also, destroy the ribbons they left behind first, and don't let people from outside come in again."
"Arnold has already gone to destroy it," said the tall and thin man.
After the woman glanced at the fire for a few times, she left with the man beside her.
