Looking at those gloomy eyes, Cao Man was shocked. She didn't have time to turn around and just said "be careful" and then began to retreat into the cave. As she retreated, she touched her waist, and as Cao Man threw out his hands,
Caltrops and plum-blossom needles shot at those two strange eyes.
Just when Cao Man took action, the black shadow clinging to the cave also began to move. As it opened its mouth and bit Cao Man, a smelly smell hit his face!
By the firelight in the cave, Cao Man could see clearly that there was a giant python in front of her!
The body of the giant python is as thick as a bucket, its forehead is as big as a basin, and its mouth is open. It is about a foot long. Because only its head is stuck in the cave, it is impossible to tell how long it is.
The sudden situation surprised everyone. The hidden weapon fired by Cao Man hit the dark red bulge above the eyes of the giant python. Apart from leaving a few white marks, it had no effect at all.
The python bit Cao Man, and a green light appeared in front of Cao Man.
That was Cao Man's natal Gu - Qinglong Gu! When Cao Man's life was threatened, Qinglong Gu was the first to rush forward!
Looking at the giant python in front of him, Qinglong Gu did not take the initiative to attack. Instead, he jumped straight in front of Cao Man. His two small eyes stared closely at the giant python in front of him. At this moment, the golden sarcoma on Qinglong Gu's head was faintly visible.
A layer of halo appeared, and the giant python could have bitten Cao Man, but because of the appearance of the green dragon Gu, it slowly closed its mouth, leaving only Snake Nobuko to keep swallowing.
"Everyone, please don't act rashly." Seeing the Green Dragon Gu and the giant python fighting each other, Zhao Bing walked up to Cao Man, pulled her behind him, and explained to everyone in a low voice: "It has become spiritual.
It will not actively attack humans."
After saying that, Zhao Bing looked at the giant python carefully. The color of the giant python is not like the common cyan, but the less common white. The white patterns are also mixed with some gray. From a distance, it gives people a strange look.
A very strange feeling, like there is a totem on the snake.
Zhao Bing's brows furrowed as his eyes shifted from the white tumors on the python's head to the golden tumors on Qinglong Gu's forehead.
The extremes of the two snakes actually meet here. Is it a coincidence of fate or other reasons?
As the green dragon Gu spit out the snake letter, the giant python also reacted at the same time. The giant python raised its neck, and there was a layer of shallow scales around its neck. These scales were unusually conspicuous under the firelight in the cave.
"Cao Man, take your treasure back. If they fight, there won't be a living creature within a ten-mile radius." Zhao Bing said to Cao Man, looking at the way the Green Dragon Gu and the giant python were wary of each other.
After listening to Zhao Bing's words, Cao Man frowned, but he still recited a spell and raised his hand to recall the Green Dragon Gu. The Green Dragon Gu returned to Cao Man's hand and kept shaking his head, very unwilling to do so.
At this time, Zhao Bing took out the jade flute, put it on his lips and started blowing.
Zhao Bing was playing the jade flute, but no sound came from the jade flute, which surprised everyone in the cave. They all knew that Zhao Bing was good at controlling animals and had seen her methods before, but why was Zhao Bing not playing the flute now?
Sound, and looking at the fine sweat on Zhao Bing's forehead, she is still very strenuous at this moment?
But something strange still happened. As Cao Man put the jade flute to his lips, the originally majestic giant python shook its body. Some gravel fell from the sky above the cave, and then the giant python coiled up.
Blocking the entrance to the cave.
"It seems to be very agitated and wants to bite someone." Looking at the giant python, Chu Chu frowned and said.
"Can you feel what it is thinking?" After hearing Chu Chu's words, Zhao Bing suddenly opened his eyes, took the jade flute away, and asked Chu Chu.
Chu Chu hesitated for a moment and said with some uncertainty: "I'm also very surprised. When you played the jade flute just now, it seemed a little angry."
Zhao Bing thought of something, nodded and said: "I understand, Chu Chu, you are born with the power of telepathy, and you should be more sensitive to these. You try to communicate with it using telepathy, and say that we have no ill intentions and will never do it again in the future."
Disturb it."
"But I don't know how to communicate with wild beasts!" Chu Chu looked surprised when she heard Zhao Bing's words.
"I'll teach you." Zhao Bing said and came to Chu Chu's side, leaned over Chu Chu's ear and said: "Close your eyes, meditate, think, and focus all your attention on it. Remember, there must be only one person in your heart."
Thoughts, that is, talking to it." After saying that, Zhao Bing straightened up, Chu Chu recalled Zhao Bing's words in her mind, nodded to Zhao Bing, and then closed her eyes.
After Chu Chu closed her eyes, she first thought of the people in the cave, and then thought of Chu Yu. Some pictures flashed by, and she remembered Zhao Bing's words, and after reciting the meditation mantra that Chu Yu taught her several times in her mind
, an ethereal feeling appeared in Chu Chu's heart - as Master Li Xin's favorite disciple, Chu Chu has unparalleled mental power and can control his thoughts as quickly as possible. In addition, those monks who practice devoutly can also enter concentration quickly, otherwise...
…How difficult is it for a person to close his eyes and take a few breaths without any distracting thoughts?
Chu Chu, whose whole heart felt ethereal, had only one thought in her mind to talk to the giant python according to what Zhao Bing said. Gradually, Chu Chu's brows wrinkled. She clearly felt that the giant python came in front of her. This feeling
It was very strange, like seeing something similar to a soul. Although it could not be touched, Chu Chu could really feel what the giant python was thinking, as if the two were really talking.
After a moment, Chu Chu opened his eyes fiercely. Feeling a buzzing in his head, Chu Chu opened his mouth and blurted out to Zhao Bing: "It says that humans are all devils! Many humans in the Hundred Thousand Mountains are killing each other now!"
After saying that, Chu Chu felt a pain in her head and couldn't help but groaned.
Cao Man came to Chu Chu at this time, looked at Chu Chu and asked: "Chu Chu, are you okay?"
"It's nothing, it's just that my head feels like it's about to explode." After Chu Chu finished speaking, she looked at Zhao Bing: "What should we do next?"
Zhao Bing didn't say anything. After looking back at the Bai sisters and Huo Yunhan, Zhao Bing suddenly turned his head and bowed three times to the giant python. He kept muttering something in a low voice and looked at Zhao Bing with the python's eyes.
After slashing the eyes of everyone in the cave, their eyes finally fell on the green dragon Gu on Cao Man's shoulder.
Green Dragon Gu raised his neck and looked at the giant python without any fear. The appearance of Green Dragon Gu seemed to arouse the anger of the giant python. As the giant python moved, the cave trembled.
However, the python's anger did not last long. After its eyes stayed on Chu Chu for a moment, the python swayed and disappeared from the entrance of the cave.
"Is this...it... gone?" Huo Yunhan came to the cave entrance with a soft sword in his hand, looked at the messy cave entrance, and said with regret.
"They should have left." Zhao Bing came to the cave entrance and took a look, wiped the sweat from his forehead, turned around and said to everyone: "If it weren't for Chu Chu, we would all be in trouble this time."
"What do you mean?" Although Cao Man was still in the shock caused by the giant python, she still said a little unconvinced: "There are so many of us who can't defeat a giant python?"
Hearing Cao Man's words, Zhao Bing smiled bitterly and shook his head. Then he pulled Huo Yunhan and Cao Man to the fire and explained to everyone: "Our current era can be said to be the Age of Ending Dharma. The history of thousands of years ago
I believe everyone knows that just now I was afraid that any of you would say it was a snake... Didn't you also see it? There are scales on its neck. The word snake is taboo for it, especially when it is a giant snake.
When a python transforms into a dragon, if anyone wants to say it is a snake at first sight, it will most likely fail to transform into a dragon, and its resentment will cause the speaker to live in unrest for several lifetimes.
"
"Is it really that mysterious?" Seeing that Zhao Bing said something mysterious, Chu Chu blinked and asked curiously.
"It doesn't matter if you believe it or not. I also saw it from the words and phrases handed down from my ancestors. I have also studied those legends carefully. Think about it, man is the spirit of all things, and naturally there are all things.
The pride of the spirit, human cultivation can control the elements of heaven and earth. What about those wild beasts? You must know that some animals have a lifespan much longer than humans. The Buddha said that everything depends on chance. Like it just now, I don’t know how many tribulations it has experienced before it can achieve what it is now.
It looks like a snake, so it is also bent on seeking righteousness. This is what Taoism calls Fengzheng. So I said that calling it a snake is taboo. If you say it is a snake, you have unintentionally sealed it as a snake. It is
Even if you practice hard all your life, it will be difficult to become a dragon. If you call it a dragon, it will be of great help to its transformation into a dragon." When Zhao Bing saw that the Bai sisters did not believe it, he smiled wryly and said to Chu Chu who was listening with relish: "These are just some of mine.
Just listen to your opinion."
"You said that giant python just now has become spiritual?" Bai Yiran asked at this time.
Zhao Bing nodded: "Remember when I played the jade flute before, it was very angry because I wanted to control it... By the way, you have seen me control beasts, but do you know what the world looks like in the eyes of a snake?
What about fish, ants, and wolves? I'm afraid you haven't thought about these. I can explain to you why the snake keeps spitting out its tongue? That's because it relies on its tongue to feel the world, which place is hot, which place has
Vibrations, these can be transmitted back to the snake's brain through the snake letter, and the snake then makes a judgment based on its instinct. Just like just now, I played the jade flute silently. In fact, it is much more difficult than making a sound because it has to imitate the snake's vibrations.
, let it know that we have no ill intentions, this is just one of the methods of controlling beasts, there are many other methods, but my level is not enough, I can't communicate with the giant python like just now. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so troublesome."
After saying so much in one breath, Zhao Bing smiled when everyone fell into silence: "There are actually a lot of things left by our five major families. If you are interested, you can go back and check." Zhao Bing said and looked at Cao Man.
, said with a hint of envy: "What is that little green snake that stood in front of you just now? It seems very powerful."
Cao Man just smiled and did not answer. Instead, he looked at Chu Chu and asked: "What did you mean when you said that humans are all devils and are killing each other?"
"This is what the giant python told me. I don't know how to describe that feeling. I just said what it was thinking."
"Are you talking about us attacking each other in this competition?" Huo Yunhan said to herself. After saying that, she looked at the time and let everyone rest. After running around in the middle of the night, everyone was at this time.
Feeling a little sleepy, I fell asleep around the extinguishing fire.
At dawn the next day, Huo Yunhan, who was sitting vigil at the entrance of the cave, woke everyone up and went out of the cave to pick up some dry firewood. After the heavy rain last night, it was too difficult to find some dry firewood, but Huo Yunhan
Han brought back some slightly damp dry firewood and lit the fire again. Everyone began to have breakfast. Looking at the rising sun in the east and the world being washed away in front of them, the mood of the people in the cave finally improved.
Some, after eating, had packed up, and everyone helped them down the mountain together, continuing to move north according to the original route. There were no accidents along the way. At noon, Huo Yunhan and others came to a place named on the map.
When we reached Baizhang Cliff, we decided to take a rest.
Looking at the grass with raindrops all around, Cao Man took a sip of water. Just when she was about to find a place to sit down, a gust of wind blew with a smell of blood. Cao Man raised her head and took two steps against the wind. Suddenly
, a corpse appeared in front of Cao Man!
With a scream, Cao Man retreated violently. Seeing Cao Man like this, Huo Yunhan and others gathered around and looked at the body lying on the ground. Zhao Bing stepped forward carefully at this time. When Zhao Bing turned the body over and took a look, Huo Yunhan and others gathered around him.
Yun Han and others couldn't help but gasped, and Bai Yiran exclaimed in disbelief: "Why is it him!"
