I don't know if I smelled the smell of blood or felt the swarm of black snakes coming at a fast speed, but the corpse-seeking insects lurking under the tree began to squirm continuously.
Probably knowing what Qi Si wanted to do, Lu Chengan quickly followed suit and made a severe cut on his arm.
Feng Qi, who was standing nearby, was stunned. This Lu Chengan was really cruel. He didn't even blink when he was stabbed like that?
The black snakes arrived, and the corpse-seeking insects began to roll. Black and emerald green instantly intertwined, making a rustling sound, mixed with the wails of the snakes.
The smell of blood dissipated instantly, and the Qiao pine under his feet was constantly shaking due to the collision of the black snakes, and seemed to be broken at any time.
Feng Qi finally managed to stabilize his body. Although the black snakes were smart, they had no way to deal with the corpse-seeking insects.
Even in order to relieve the pain, he bit his torso fiercely, as if he was angry.
The twisted bodies kept beating, but soon the corpse-seeking insects lifted off their dense scales and penetrated into their flesh.
However, there are some exceptions. Some black snakes in the black snake group are not affected by the corpse-seeking insects.
Their scales seem to be extraordinarily strong. No matter how much the corpse-seeking insects bite them, they can't be harmed at all. However, these shining cold scales are all over the body, like indestructible armor.
They purposely gathered to one side, raised their upper bodies high, and stared at Lu Chengan and Feng Qi who were high up.
Through those pairs of black eyes, they seemed to be thinking about something seriously. This scene made Feng Qi a little scared.
Perhaps what she faced was not a group of ordinary snakes, but a group of intelligent things that were thinking about how to kill themselves gracefully and cruelly.
The Qiao Song under his feet was shaking more and more violently, and the group of black snakes were rolling more and more wildly, threatening to destroy everything.
Feng Qi covered his wound, whispered "Let's go" and fled in another direction with Lu Chengan.
Black Snake did not catch up, but Feng Qi could not help but look at those dark eyes, which made people feel inexplicably scared.
Soon, Feng Qi heard the tinkling sound of the stream, and sure enough, what came into view was a clear stream.
There are still pines on both sides, and the poisonous fog is still there, but we stop at the stream. It seems that this is a place that is not affected by the poisonous fog.
The two of them saw no trace of the black snake or other poisonous beasts, so they stopped and took a break.
Feng Qi felt the chill on his face and felt a little refreshed. It turned out that Bai Zhilin was so big and there were so many things hidden in it, but he didn't know anything about it.
She took off her heavy cloak, which was covered in blood and mud stains and had an unpleasant smell.
But Fengqi couldn't help shivering as soon as he took off his clothes. It was still very cold today.
She squatted down and prepared to clean the wound on her palm. Perhaps because she had lost too much blood, she always felt that her steps were a little unsteady.
Lu Chengan still refused to relax, standing behind Feng Qi and observing the surroundings vigilantly, fearing that something would go wrong again.
But before Feng Qi's hand touched the cold water, he immediately retracted it, stood up and stepped back, as if he saw something.
"Sister, what's wrong?"
Feng Qi didn't say anything, he just stared straight at the clear water. Lu Chengan also looked over, but didn't see anything wrong.
The flowing stream is quite gentle. There are not too many pine trees here, and there is no overwhelming poisonous fog. It is also favored by a few rays of sunshine, and the water surface is shimmering.
Just when Lu Chengan was looking at it seriously, Feng Qi stepped directly into the water, seemingly squinting and looking for something.
Before Lu Chengan could react, Feng Qi suddenly stretched out his fingers to pick up something in the water and threw it to Lu Chengan's feet.
Lu Chengan was startled when he saw the little red snake twisting at his feet. He pierced the young snake with his sword and nailed it into the soil.
Only then did he see that this red snake was no more than the thickness of a finger. It was fiery red and mixed with dark black lines, like streaks of lightning. It seemed to have no scales. It was more like a long worm than a snake.
But if you look closely, you will see that the red snake's neck also has white hairs, like things growing on rotten objects, which are now tightly attached to the snake's skin.
The smelly black blood flowed out from the wound. It was hidden in the gravel. Even if it was brightly colored, it could not be seen clearly without looking carefully.
Lu Chengan frowned, "Why are there snakes here?"
Feng Qi took another look at the seemingly calm water, and moved further away from the water. "I guess these should be the babies of those black snakes. This should be the place where they hatched."
"But there are no snake eggs around. Could they be in the water..."
But before he finished speaking, he was attracted by the looming hem of clothes behind a big stone, and he walked closer with his sword in hand.
"Who? Come out!"
When he approached, he looked back at Feng Qi with a look of horror on his face, and Feng Qi also walked over.
Lying there was the body that was in front of the cave last night, but I don’t know how it got here.
Looking at the mottled mud stains on the body, Feng Qi felt a chill. Could it have been done by those black snakes? Why did they transport the body here?
Lu Chengan squinted his eyes slightly, and just poked the man's slightly bulging belly, and saw a stream of turbid yellow water coming out of the man's mouth, exuding a faint unpleasant smell.
In an instant, two fiery red baby snakes emerged from the man's mouth, quickly dived into the water and disappeared.
Feng Qi gasped, "It seems they laid their eggs..."
Although Lu Chengan was startled when he saw the baby snake escaping and had a vague premonition, when Feng Qi actually said it, he still felt his stomach churn and seemed to have cramps.
Feng Qi shook his head slightly, "Let's leave here early."
Undoubtedly, Lu Chengan agreed with this.
After taking the last two antidote pills, the two stepped into the poisonous mist again, but this time the surroundings were extremely quiet.
Not far away, he saw a person rushing towards him from a distance. Feng Qi's first reaction was that strange black figure, and blood flowed from his body.
Lu Chengan was obviously startled and hurriedly backed away, not forgetting to protect Feng Qi behind him.
The person who came was wearing a dark robe, his eyes were full of frost, and the blade in his hand was still dripping with black blood. He didn't know what happened just now, and the hem of his clothes was full of mud stains.
After seeing the face of the visitor clearly, Feng Qi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Xuan Si."
Xuan Si frowned and came to Feng Qi. Seeing that Feng Qi was fine, he felt at ease in his heart, but in an instant he was filled with overwhelming anger.
He scolded: "Have you forgotten everything I said? I have been looking for you all day! Didn't I tell you to leave immediately if the situation is not right?!"
Feng Qi pouted, feeling a little unhappy, but still did not argue, feeling extremely dissatisfied.
Lu Chengan was stunned for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses, "Senior Brother and Junior Sister are also trying to protect us, so they ignore the danger. That black snake is really dangerous..."
However, his next words were forced back by Xuan Si's fierce look. He pursed his lips and stood aside without saying a word.
Xuan Si's tone was cold, and the look he looked at Lu Chengan was not really friendly, "Did I let you speak?"
Feng Qi gently pulled Xuan Si's hand. His hand was a little cold and not as warm as before. When he noticed Feng Qi's touch, Xuan Si withdrew his hand slightly.
He looked at Feng Qi and sighed helplessly, "Zhao Bingyan and Shen Xiaoyang have gone out, now I will take you home."
He looked at the blood on his hand and seemed a little hesitant, but after pondering for a while, he still took Feng Qi's hand.
Lu Chengan looked at everything in front of him silently, his mind a little wandering, maybe his mood could be considered depressed, so he could only follow behind the two of them without saying a word.
After returning home, he cried and told Feng Qi briefly what happened. Xuan Si also paused when he heard about the black snake.
He sprinkled two bottles of white powder on the two of them, "This is what Bai Feng entrusted to me. He said it was to repel the poison and report that we can get out safely."
Feng Qi nodded slightly, just looked at the remaining powder in the corner of his clothes, silently and carefully pocketed it, and held it tightly in his hands.
This is a good thing. If I go back to Wen Baifeng and he doesn't tell me, I might be able to study it myself.
Feng Qi followed Xuan Si step by step, becoming more courageous, "Who do you think the man in black is who appears in Bai Zhilin?"
Is his appearance because of himself or because of Brahmaji Valley?
Xuan Si did not look back, but Feng Qi still noticed a moment of hesitation in Xuan Si's steps.
"I don't know, but I will report this matter to the Valley Master, and I believe the Valley Master will handle it."
Feng Qi stopped asking. Xuan Si didn't want to say it, probably because there was Lu Cheng'an present, so he could just go out and ask.
Just as the three of them were about to leave the depths of Bai Zhi Forest, the rustling sounds sounded again, and Lu Chengan and Feng Qi suddenly tensed up.
Lu Chengan's knuckles turned white, "You're still here?!"
This time, the group of black snakes did not try to cover up, but appeared directly and surrounded the three people.
The black snakes are stacked one on top of the other, densely packed, and their scales rub against each other, making the sound of metal friction.
They all raised their heads and stared at the three of them, spitting out snake letters every now and then, and swaying their bodies from time to time.
Lu Chengan swallowed, "Didn't you say that these poisons won't come near us anymore?"
Xuan Si didn't say anything, but protected Feng Qi well behind him.
Almost at the same time, the snakes stood upside down on their scales and made strange sounds rhythmically. This was the source of those rustling sounds!
Feng Qi said: "They really don't dare to get close, otherwise they will rush up and tear us apart before we get out. They are probably unwilling to let us leave so easily."
Thinking about the appearance of the corpse he just saw, Lu Chengan felt chills again. He didn't want to die in the hands of these guys.
Then he was dragged back to the river by them, and watched as they laid their own snake eggs in their bellies, waiting for them to emerge one day.
When the two sides were in a stalemate, Feng Qi felt the blood surge in his chest. He was caught off guard and spit out a mouthful of blood, and immediately fainted.
She was already injured, and she had stayed in Bai Zhilin for too long. She was afraid that the detoxification pills would have no effect, and she finally couldn't hold on any longer.
Xuan Si quickly hugged Feng Qi in his arms, frowning and gently stroking Feng Qi's pale face with a myriad of emotions.
"Big brother!"
Lu Chengan saw the blood that Feng Qi had vomited spilled on the ground. A black snake rushed forward, but when it touched the pool of blood, it ran away desperately.
The group of snakes suddenly exploded and rushed away, as if they were under some great threat.
A trace of horror flashed in Xuan Si's eyes. He picked up Feng Qi and said coldly: "If you dare to tell what happened just now, I will definitely kill you."
Lu Chengan was shocked and didn't dare to ask about the cause and effect. He could only lower his head and say yes.
The man standing on the tall pine tree remained motionless, just watching everything happening below quietly, his old fingers sliding over the body of the black snake on his arm.
This snake is smaller than other black snakes, but it does have a bright red line from head to tail, like a red ribbon.
He finally... found... This chapter has been completed!
