The python blinked its green eyes, then spit out a three-foot-long piece of information, licked Hu Xiaotian's thigh, then retracted its head, quickly turned around and swam away in the direction of the pool again.
Hu Xiaotian was sure that he could no longer hear any movement around him. He estimated that the python should have gone away. Then he opened his eyes. Before he could see the surrounding scenery clearly, a pungent stench was inhaled into his lungs. Hu Xiaotian was worried that the smell was poisonous.
He hurriedly held his breath again. What surprised him was that there was actually a faint light in the cave. Looking through the weak light, he saw that he was in a dark and sticky mud. Hu Xiaotian struggled to get out of the cave.
Climbing up from the mud, his right hand held something hard. He dragged the object out casually, and when he looked closer, he saw a white skull. Hu Xiaotian was not afraid of such things. In the eyes of a doctor,
, the dead are much safer than the living, and certainly safer than the purple python. This has always been the python's nest. Hu Xiaotian finally stood up from the mud. He was lucky to be alive, but he didn't know that Tang Qing
How is Xuan doing now?
Tang Qingxuan watched helplessly as Hu Xiaotian was dragged into the pool again. She came to the edge of the pool. Unfortunately, she was not good at water. Even if she jumped in, instead of saving Hu Xiaotian, she would risk her own life. Tang Qingxuan was so sad that she covered her head.
She started sobbing. At this moment, she suddenly saw lights and shadows flashing in the distance. Tang Qingxuan was so frightened that she dared not speak out. Only then did she realize that she had just removed all her clothes.
Xue,.c︽∞t was torn to pieces, and now she was completely naked. She was really ashamed and scared. Through the moonlight, she saw some clothes scattered not far ahead. Those clothes were left by Hu Xiaotian before he went into the water to save her.
Tang Qingxuan didn't think too much, picked up those clothes, picked up her broken clothes together, and quickly hid in the grass.
The fire was getting closer and closer, and Tang Qingxuan was extremely frightened. Looking through the gaps in the grass, she saw six figures appearing on the edge of the pool. The tallest among them was the black-bearded warrior Lahan. Lahan
Said: "Have you ever heard a woman's voice?"
The other people shook their heads and said: "There are all kinds of birds and beasts in this mountain, and it may not be a woman's cry." It turned out that Zha Wan and others did not give up the pursuit of Hu Xiaotian. Although they could not cross the mountain stream, they went around and around.
We went to the bottom of the mountain and tracked it all the way to here.
Although Tang Qingxuan didn't understand what the Black Hu people were saying, she believed that these people were here to hunt them down. Her heart was pounding. Hu Xiaotian didn't know whether he was dead or alive. In this situation, if he was killed by them
Realizing that there was only one way to die, Tang Qingxuan held the scimitar tightly in her hand, thinking to herself that if they found out, it would be better for her to kill herself than to be humiliated by these black men.
Lahan said: "This Kotoushan Mountain is full of weirdness. All three of my Black Hu masters have disappeared in this area."
Several black-bearded warriors couldn't help but feel a little frightened when they heard what he said: "Sir, let's leave."
Lahan said: "Don't worry! I just heard a woman screaming."
A black-bearded warrior was attracted by the scene in the water pool. A little pink fluorescence flashed in the water pool, like stars in the sky. Seeing this beautiful scene, he couldn't help but walked towards the water pool curiously. Lahan and the others also
Noticing the scene on the other side of the pool, the black-bearded warrior stretched out his hand and gently touched the beautiful little creatures with his fingers, but was stung. He couldn't help but laugh. The laughter had not stopped yet, and in the pool,
Suddenly something black jumped out and swallowed the black-bearded warrior in one bite.
None of Lahan and the others expected such a shocking turn of events. They all hurriedly backed away. Lahan yelled: "Shoot it!"
The two archers took out their bows and arrows first and shot at the pool, but the black monster had already sunk under the pool.
Lahan said: "Have you seen what it is?"
Several barbarians felt chills in their hearts and shook their heads vigorously. One of them trembled: "Sir, let's... let's go..."
Lahan said angrily: "You! Go and see!"
"grown ups!"
Lahan took out the crescent ax from his waist and said solemnly: "Go!"
Although the warrior was scared to death, he also knew that if he didn't go, Lahan might hit him with an axe. He walked forward a few steps cautiously, and when he saw that the water in the pool had completely calmed down, he said in a trembling voice: "It's
...should have left already..."
Lahan asked: "What kind of monster?" He slowly moved forward.
Suddenly, a purple-black long tail swept out from the water pool, and bang! rolled around the waist of the black-bearded warrior who was investigating the situation. The warrior screamed and was dragged backwards. The two black-bearded archers had quick eyes and quick hands.
, and at the same time he shot at the long tail, the arrowhead shot through the air and made a whooshing sound. The tip of the arrowhead hit the python's skin, and it didn't penetrate even an inch before it was slid away by the tough python skin.
Lahan rushed forward with an astonishing stride. He raised the crescent ax with his right hand and struck the python's tail hard before it completely entered the pond. With a "Peng!" sound, Lahan's powerful and domineering power and Crescent
The sharp edge of the ax did not tear the python's skin.
After suffering three consecutive attacks, the python quickly dragged the black-bearded warrior into the water.
Lahan's blow just now was with all his strength, and it made his right arm sore and numb. He also saw clearly what the monster was just now.
At this time, more than ten people came over from the woods on the east side holding torches, and the leader was none other than Ma Shang Zhawan. After experiencing the danger just now, Lahan and others were all shocked, and turned away from the water pool to join Zhawan.
Zha Wan was accompanied by a Han man, who was the guide he found from the local area.
Tang Qingxuan saw that these people were only about five feet away from her and could find her at any time. She was so scared that she covered her lips and tried her best to hide her voice.
Lahan briefly told Zha Wan what had just happened. Zha Wan was horrified after hearing this. He asked the guide beside him: "What is this place?"
The guide was a local hunter who was very familiar with the nearby terrain. He whispered: "This place is called Peach Blossom Pond, because there are many jellyfish growing in the pond, which appear every night, just like peach blossoms in March, so it got its name. This place
Although Peach Blossom Pond is beautiful, it is a scary place. Dozens of people have disappeared by the pond over the years. It is said that there are extremely scary monsters hidden in it, so we local hunters try to avoid coming here." He paused.
He said at once: "There are people in our village who do not believe in evil and are grazing cattle nearby. When they saw the cattle grazing by the waterhole, they were swallowed up by a monster in one bite."
Lahan had already seen clearly that the monster was actually a purple-black python. He said to Zhawan: "It is a purple python. I think the disappearance of the Imperial Master and the others was also related to this monster."
Zha Wan nodded, glanced at the water pool, and then said: "Everyone leave here first and wait until tomorrow to report to the fourth prince before making a decision."
Hu Xiaotian stepped on the mud and walked toward the light. He originally thought it was the phosphorescence emitted by the bones of the dead, but when he looked closer, he saw that it was a plant, about a foot tall, with only three leaves growing on it. The leaves looked like money grass.
, glowing with green fluorescence, surrounded by three green leaves, there is an orange fruit the size of a longan. The fruit emits orange light, and the light changes like a breathing lamp. Hu Xiaotian has never seen anything like this.
Plants were searched carefully in his mind but he had no idea at all. However, the brighter the things in nature, the more poisonous they were. He did not dare to touch the things easily. He looked closer and smelled, and smelled a refreshing smell.
of fragrant scent.
This smell instantly dissipated the stench in the cave, making Hu Xiaotian's mind suddenly clear. Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but smell it a few more times, and even felt that the pain and itchiness of the jellyfish sting on his body was relieved a lot in an instant. He was sure that it was not him.
It seems that this plant has a soothing effect. He carefully stretched out his hand to touch the leaves of the plant. He raised his hand and was shocked. He saw that his palm was twice as enlarged as usual.
There was more than enough, and his index finger was swollen like a carrot. Hu Xiaotian was very surprised. Is this still a human hand? It was like a bear's paw. He subconsciously touched his face with his hand. His fingers were numb, and his face was also numb. Even when he bent his arms, his face became numb.
It took so much effort that Hu Xiaotian was so frightened that he was poisoned! I don’t know whether he was stung by a jellyfish or was licked by the python. It stands to reason that the former is more likely.
In fact, Hu Xiaotian's body has been swollen for some time. It was just because so many things happened one after another that he ignored the changes in his body. Hu Xiaotian licked his lips and felt that his lips were numb and his tongue could no longer move flexibly. He screamed in his heart.
It's broken. He must be suffering from symptoms of poisoning. If he doesn't receive timely treatment, his life may be in danger. But now he is trapped in this damp and smelly cave. It can be said that the sky and the earth are not working, let alone
There is a ferocious giant python in the cave's mouth, and it is difficult to escape.
Just when Hu Xiaotian was at a loss what to do, he suddenly heard another rustling noise coming from outside. He was so frightened that he hurriedly lay down on the pile of smelly mud, guessing that the giant python must have gone and returned, and it turned out that he was exactly where he was.
Unexpectedly, it didn't take long to see the purple python come back again, and this time it actually dragged another corpse.
Hu Xiaotian concentrated and held his breath, fearing that the giant python would see through his disguise. Fortunately, the purple python's attention was not on him. He threw the body next to Hu Xiaotian, and then swam to the front of the orange fruit. A pair of large, dark green
Looking at the red fruit, the bright red snake danced around the fruit, and even dropped a few drops of saliva.
