Snake mother?
Hearing this, Partridge Whistle’s heart sank.
From the murals seen along the way, it can be determined that those strange snakes exist to protect something.
It is not yet known whether it is a ghost cave or a queen.
Just like the sand wolves in the black desert, there is always a wolf leading the pack, and the leader of the snake tide is the elusive and terrifying mother snake.
In the family books left by our ancestors.
The records about the snake mother are extremely detailed.
The mother snake is of extraordinary size, covered in scales and has a pair of giant pupils on her head. She is the messenger of the devil from hell.
Because of this, when he saw the green-scaled giant python in the big lake outside Zhelong Mountain's Insect Valley, he showed a disbelief that was inconsistent with him.
At that moment, he even thought that he was not in southern Yunnan, but in the desert of northern Xinjiang, under the holy mountain.
That is, I will react later.
Although the big python is also covered in scales, invulnerable to weapons and guns, and has an equally astonishing stature, the characteristics of the snake mother are still quite different.
Especially the most important black color and giant eyes.
Are you finally going to see your true form now?
It should be noted that in order to kill the snake mother, the clan paid an extremely heavy price.
The two prophets burned their essence and blood to figure out its weaknesses.
After that, countless warriors exchanged their lives for their lives before finally killing him.
Now...
Thousands of years have passed.
The prophetic power of Zagrama has long since died and its inheritance has been cut off.
"Here it comes..."
While he was thinking wildly.
A calm reminder suddenly sounded in my ears.
Partridge Whistle’s eyebrows jumped and he subconsciously looked towards the crack on the cliff in the distance.
In the darkness, the rustling movements became more and more alarming. It sounded like countless snakes and insects crawling by, making people feel like their scalp was numb.
"Brother Dao, hold your breath!"
Chen Yulou's reminder came again.
There was also a slight sound of wind.
The burning wind lamp went out instantly.
The surroundings fell into deathly silence.
Only the sacred tree was still blooming with faint golden light.
“Okay.”
Almost subconsciously.
Partridge Whistle took a deep breath, and immediately, all his energy, blood and intelligence disappeared without a trace in an instant, just like the tide returning to the port.
The whole person is hiding in the night.
It seems to be integrated with the rocks on the island in the middle of the lake.
The method of holding one's breath and concentrating one's breath has been inherited by four schools and eight sects.
Chen Yulou on the side was even more astonishing. He was clearly right in front of him, but when his energy swept across him, there was no fluctuation at all.
Partridge Whistle didn’t have time to express too much emotion.
The crawling sound in the darkness, in the blink of an eye, has become as loud as a tide. Black snakes criss-crossed with their heads held high, rushing towards the gerbil corpses by the lake.
Looking from a distance, it looks like a flowing Mo River.
"Snake..."
"God, how come there are so many snakes?"
"It's a swan that pricks the black. God, how come there are so many?"
Although it is quite a distance away.
But the movements in the cave were also not hidden from the attention of everyone outside the stone gate, who watched those hideous-looking, ugly and terrifying snakes swarming past.
Everyone felt a chill coming from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads.
Nameless fear and panic grew in my heart and I couldn't suppress it at all.
Among the subconscious exclamations, one was particularly special.
Yang Fang and the old foreigner turned around suddenly and looked at the figure holding a bronze mirror beside them.
"Pulling a swan to stab the black?"
"What is that?"
Only after hearing the two people asking, Oona turned back, her eyes full of uneasiness.
"In Turkic language, it refers to the evil ghost from hell."
"But...we have seen it before in Gumo and outside the city?"< br>
The old foreigner still couldn't understand it.
Before this, they had seen this strange black snake twice.
But this was the first time I saw her like this.
"It's not a snake tide..."
Oona knew as soon as she heard that he had misunderstood what she meant. She shook her head repeatedly and pointed to the depths of the darkness.
"That's it!"
"What?!"
Hearing this, Yang Fang and the old foreigner couldn't help but look at each other.
Immediately I seemed to have a premonition of something.
Subconsciously, they all turned around.
Looking past the wildly scurrying black snakes, he looked towards the deepest part of the cave.
"Wait..."
Yang Fang was born with night eyes, and the thick fog covering all directions could not block his sight at all.
Looking intently at this moment.
I don’t know when two will-o’-wisps floated in the darkness.
wrong.
Not a will-o'-the-wisp!
A clear light flowed deep in his eyes, and in an instant, his sight was drawn farther and clearer.
The two faint will-o'-wisps suddenly became clearly visible.
It is clearly two pupils with a cold and strange light.
He remained motionless, staring intently at the inside and outside of the cave.
Slowly follow the pair of giant pupils downward.
The palm-sized scales fit tightly together, giving off an indescribable sense of eeriness and coldness.
Further down...
It is a huge body entangled between the cliffs.
As if it sensed that someone was peeping at it, it suddenly lowered its head, and then looked over coldly.
Brush——
The moment they looked at each other.
Yang Fang felt as if his whole body fell into an endless ice cave.
Cold air and cold water rushed into the chest and alveoli desperately.
Although I was clearly in the stone palace of the palace, I felt a strong feeling of drowning.
"You kid...what's wrong?"
I noticed something strange about him, his face was as white as gold paper, and his whole body was trembling uncontrollably. How dare the old foreigner delay, he immediately He shook his shoulders slightly.
At the same time, a ray of spiritual energy was mobilized to enter Yang Fang's body.
That wisp of energy flowed through his limbs and veins, making his mind tremble.
Huh——
Subconsciously let out a long breath.
I touched my forehead with my backhand. In the cold winter weather, in such a blink of an eye, he looked like he had just been fished out of the water, and the inner lining of his body was soaked with cold sweat.
“No, what did you see?”
“How could you be so scared?”
The old foreigner frowned, looking anxious.
Although his five senses and six senses have also been greatly improved, after all, his eyesight is still difficult to penetrate the cave shrouded in thick fog and darkness in front of him.
I could only faintly notice... something seemed to be peeking in the darkness.
That invisible but majestic pressure.
I have encountered it only a handful of times.
"Snake..."
"Giant snake!"
Yang Fang took several deep breaths, and then he could calm down his pounding heart.
"Giant..."
"Shhh!"
The old foreigner wanted to ask a few more questions, but suddenly, a silent sound sounded in his ears.
Others couldn't help but be startled, and subconsciously looked in front of them.
Yang Fang seemed to have heard it too.
At this moment, I was looking around blankly.
Not only the two of them, but also the guys around them. Although they are confused, their execution ability is extremely amazing.
Almost at the moment when the boos sounded.
The originally noisy and chaotic stone hall suddenly became audible.
Because they have already reacted.
That slight reminder sound clearly came from the boss.
Under the Xiling gate, there are hundreds of responses to every call, and orders and prohibitions are carried out.
What's more, they are still old people who have followed the Chen family for many years.
Now the mainstay of Changsheng Mountain.
Yang Fang and the two of them ducked back and used the stone door beams to hide their figures. Seeing this, everyone behind them followed suit and used the buildings in the stone palace to hide their figures.
Later. The wind lanterns were also extinguished one by one.
After a while, the stone hall fell silent again.
Even the sound of breathing became inaudible.
If you don’t look at it carefully, you can hardly notice much breath.
In the darkness, the only sounds came from the chewing sounds of the black snakes gnawing at the gerbil corpses.
The Partridge Whistle, who was hiding behind a huge stone, calmly opened his mirror umbrella and stretched it forward, slightly adjusting the angle. Soon, two rays of light appeared in several magic mirrors.
"Mother Snake..."
The moment I saw the two will-o'-wisps.
He understood immediately.
This is what Chen Yulou was talking about.
The snake mother exists in the oral tradition of Zagrama.
As early as in Gumozhou, when he met the black snake for the first time, he was worried that after thousands of years, another snake mother would be born. Now it seems that his most worried thing has come true.
Out of the corner of his eye he glanced to his side.
Chen Yulou also saw this scene through the mirror.
But his expression was as usual, and there was no trace of panic or uneasiness at all.
Tap your fingers lightly and take a leisurely stroll.
Seeing this, Partridge Whistle couldn't help but feel nervous. Looking at the several fights, every time he thought there was a dead end, Chen Yulou could often use his magic to resolve it easily.
Think back to when I proposed the fire attack snake tide.
What he said.
Now it seems quite meaningful.
Maybe... he has discovered the existence of the Snake Mother a long time ago.
"Huh?"
Just when his eyes flickered.
Suddenly, Partridge Whistle seemed to notice something, his pupils froze slightly, and he held his breath and looked into the mirror.
The mother snake entrenched in the crack of the cliff.
Climbed down slowly.
The huge snake body rolled across the ground, causing a crashing sound. The fine rocks fell into the lake, breaking the previous calm, and the sound of water was endless.
Until it goes completely downhill.
Partridge Whistle finally saw its full picture.
It is four to five meters long, covered in black scales, with a cold black luster all over its body. It holds its head high, and a pair of huge pupils on the top of its head scan the surroundings, revealing a disregard for human life.
The moment of looking at it.
For some reason, Partridge Whistle suddenly thought of a poisonous snake he had seen in the mountains of Sichuan and Chongqing many years ago.
The locals call it Guoshanfeng or black black shoot, flat-necked snake, and rice shovel head.
It was also completely black and covered in scales.
The only difference is.
The huge mountain wind is only one or two meters away.
Compared with this ghost thing in front of me, there is simply a difference between heaven and earth.
The snake mother raised her head and glanced around, her nostrils twitching slightly, as if she was sniffing out the scent of strangers.
See this scene.
The people hiding behind the stone gate suddenly became nervous.
The pressure of an ordinary black snake can be fatal.
Not to mention it.
That huge mouth might be able to swallow a camel alive.
“Silence!”
The old foreigner tightly grasped the dragon-shooting bow in his hand. The demonic energy in the bow was swelled, as if it would break free from his hand at any time.
It was clearly the dragon soul that sensed the danger and released a strong fighting spirit.
But at the moment, neither shopkeeper Chen nor senior brother has given orders.
He did not dare to act rashly.
The restless and depressing aura behind him also made his heartstrings tighten, for fear of alarming the giant snake.
After all...
He knows the horror of the snake mother better than anyone else.
On the other hand, that boy Yang Fang, who was usually fearless, suddenly saw a big monster at this moment. The nervousness and horror in his eyes could not be concealed at all.
People’s fear of darkness and giant objects.
It is something engraved in the bones.
Having never experienced it personally, it would be hard to imagine that such a terrifying monster could exist underground in the desolate and life-depleted Black Desert.
No hundreds or thousands of years.
I'm afraid he won't be able to grow into such a huge figure, right?
Yang Fang thought that he had seen the Armored Beast, Yuan Hong and the Angry Chicken, which meant he had seen countless things.
But how could he think of it.
The oppression of a big demon is so strong?
At that moment, if the old foreigner hadn't pulled him out of his daze in time, he would have fallen into an illusion and couldn't extricate himself.
At this moment, a thin layer of cold sweat broke out in the palm of his hand that was holding the whip tightly.
If he had encountered such a ghost half a year ago, Yang Fang would never have hesitated at all.
Thirty-six strategies, escape is the best.
The magic whip can make zombies and rice dumplings, and it can suppress the evil spirits of the dead.
But how do you fight a monster that has lived for hundreds of years?
He is straightforward and not stubborn.
Such a being cannot be killed by human power at all.
But...
Shopkeeper Chen, Kuaishou Yang, and even Hua Ling, Kunlun, Lao Yangren, and Miss Hong, they themselves are not ordinary people.
Especially after seeing Chen Yulou cut off the spring in the mountain with his sword, and when he broke through the barrier and walked out of Guanyun Tower, the sky was full of strange phenomena and thunderstorms were like clouds.
He has become increasingly convinced.
This world is far from what I see.
The strange people in the rivers and lakes are not all deceivers and deceivers, and those who use Fu Shui to treat illnesses and break fortunes are not all sanctimonious pseudo-Taoist alchemists.
It is precisely because I have seen many kinds of things.
He then decided to stay.
Before leaving the mountain, his wish was to compete with the world's martial arts masters, preferably to meet a few masters.
But now...
The real person is right here.
How could Yang Fang not know how to do it.
So no matter how uneasy and uneasy he was now, he remained motionless, and there was even a hint of expectation deep in his eyes.
Flying sword kills dragon and snake.
That is a story that only exists in the mouth of the storyteller.
Poof——
A moment later.
I don’t know whether it was because I noticed that there was no danger, or because I never paid attention to them from beginning to end.
The giant snake dragged its body and jumped into the deep pool with a pop.
A large splash of water.
Soon, there was a boiling sound under the originally silent water surface. Countless big fish fled frantically, slapping the water surface, trying to avoid the giant snake.
At a glance.
Chen Yulou only felt that those cold-water fish were indescribably familiar.
No scales or markings.
Wide beard.
"White Bearded Fish?"
The kind of big fish found in the wind-eroded lake under the snow-capped mountains.
Why are you here?
While hesitating, the corner of his eye glanced at the golden sacred tree in front of him, and he suddenly realized.
Zi Duan River originates from Kunlun Snow Mountain.
These cold-water fish may have traveled downstream, or there is another possibility that they were brought back from the wind-eroded lake by ancient people.
At this moment, the giant snake was twisting its body in the pond water as fast as lightning. With its huge mouth, it swallowed nearly a hundred white bearded fish in the blink of an eye.
Skillful movements.
Compared with the previous gerbils that devoured golden mayflies, they were no more frightened.
As for the black snakes on the shore, they raised their heads and looked expectantly into the lake.
The dozen or so gerbils with only their skins left were obviously unable to meet their needs for hundreds of black snakes, but they did not dare to go into the water rashly.
Until the giant snake is full of food and drink.
It then raised its tail and whipped toward the water.
Only a few loud bangs were heard, and countless white-bearded fish were shot into the air mixed with the lake water, and then fell to the ground with a clatter.
See this situation.
The tide of snakes that had been waiting for a long time suddenly swarmed up, opening their bloody mouths and devouring crazily.
Ignore them.
The giant snake dragged its body slowly up the island in the middle of the lake.
A pair of giant eyes stared at the sacred tree in the center of the island, with an unspeakable greed in his eyes.
Seeing it getting closer.
Chen Yulou finally no longer intends to drag it out any longer.
He glanced at the partridge whistle beside him.
He raised his hand and made a gesture of cutting his throat, and at the same time, his lips moved silently a few times.
The latter looked attentively.
It clearly means ‘hands on’! (End of this chapter)
