Lu Zhiruo looked up. This mountain was so high. The top of the mountain was actually covered with snow, which was a bit pretty. However, underneath the mountain, it was a bit ugly. It was full of dense caves.
If you have trypophobia, your scalp will definitely be numb from fear.
"It's marked in red on the map. This place is called Ten Thousand Snake Cave."
Li Ziqi looked at those caves and felt a little uncomfortable.
No way, girls are always afraid of these slippery, cold-blooded animals.
Zhang Yanzong took out a map and checked the terrain.
The first route is through Ten Thousand Snake Cave.
This means that walking through the cave is the most time-saving, but also the most dangerous. The second way is to climb over the lowest part of the mountain.
Proportionally speaking, the time spent is more than half a day.
"Go to the Cave of Ten Thousand Snakes!"
Zhang Yanzong made a decision.
"Have you forgotten the crisis you encountered in the Canyon of the Human Face before? The danger level marked here is higher than that of the Canyon of the Human Face!"
Zhao Zhi took one look and raised an objection.
Everyone looks bad. If you are caught by a spider, at least you will not die immediately. But snakes are not good. If you are bitten by a venomous snake, you will basically become cold immediately. You may not have time to rescue.
"Tantai, can you prepare some powder to repel venomous snakes?"
Li Ziqi asked.
"If you want to guard against venomous snakes in the grass, this powder is simple, but if you want to guard against venomous snakes in the snake den, it will be difficult."
Tantai Yutang shrugged his shoulders.
When the number of venomous snakes reaches a certain level, it is no longer a problem that a little snake repellent powder can solve.
"Go get ready!"
Li Ziqi decided to leave the Cave of Ten Thousand Snakes.
"Do you want to work so hard?"
Zhao Zhi muttered, with a depressed look on his face: "If you are bitten by a poisonous snake, even if you don't die, will you be disabled?"
"Yes, the venom of some venomous snakes can paralyze the nerves and make the whole person tremble constantly. Living is simply a suffering."
Tantai Yutang smiled.
"Can you stop being scary?"
Zhang Yanzong frowned.
In fact, there are still people who don't want to take the route of Ten Thousand Snakes Cave, but most people don't speak because their self-esteem prevents them from speaking.
After all, no one wants to be thought of as a coward.
While Tantai Yutang was looking for herbs to make snake-repelling powder, a group of students suddenly rushed out of a large cave in a hurry.
"Oh, I'm scared to death!"
"Ooooooo, mom, I want to go home!"
"My mother, Riri, if I run any slower, I will be the food for that big snake today."
A group of students sat on the ground, breathing heavily, their faces full of joy at surviving the disaster. However, when they saw Li Ziqi and his party, they immediately stood up and prepared for the attack.
Both sides' eyes fell on each other's chest, identifying themselves through the school badge.
"He's a student from Zhoushan!"
Zhang Yanzong reminded that this school ranked thirteenth in last year's league and was only three places away from advancing. It can be said that it is quite powerful.
"He's a student from Zhongzhou!"
After confirming the identities of this group of students, the students from Zhoushan suddenly relaxed. Zhongzhou? Isn't it the countdown to last year...
Very good, no threat!
"What are you thinking about?"
The last person who rushed out of the cave just now was a tall and thin boy. He did not sit down and rest like the others, but stared at the cave.
At this time, seeing everyone's contempt for this Zhongzhou student group, he immediately frowned and began to lecture.
"If someone can come here and catch up with us, it means they are very strong."
After hearing the words of the thin boy, the students in Zhoushan immediately lowered their heads like eggplants beaten by frost.
"Captain, we know we were wrong!"
The students apologized.
This boy's name is Liao Wenbing. He is the regiment leader of Zhoushan. He was born in a big family and has excellent intelligence and martial arts.
"My God, this guy is so prestigious!"
Wu Jitong is envious.
"Does anyone know him?"
Li Fen thinks that this boy, apart from being a bit thinner, is still quite handsome and has a gentle and gentle air.
"I don't know him, but he must be the leader!"
After Lu Zhiruo finished speaking, everyone rolled their eyes. You don't need to say anything about this position, everyone can see it.
"Everyone from Zhongzhou, I'm Liao Wenbing, who of you is the regiment leader? Can you come out and talk to me?"
Liao Wenbing looked at everyone. He didn't want to waste time. After rushing through it once, he knew that this snake cave was difficult, so he wanted to see if Zhongzhou Academy could do anything.
Otherwise, we will have no choice but to take a detour.
Shi Jiao and his party subconsciously looked at Li Ziqi, then realized something was wrong and looked at Zhang Yanzong.
Because Li Ziqi has been giving orders, so when they encounter problems, their first reaction is to listen to Xiao Hebao's opinion.
"What the hell?"
Liao Wenbing frowned. Could it be that there are two talkers in this team?
"Be careful, this guy is very scheming!"
Li Ziqi walked to Zhang Yanzong and whispered a reminder.
"Um?"
Zhang Yanzong is confused, can you see this?
However, he had a much better impression of Xiao Po.
In front of outsiders, Li Ziqi allowed himself to make the decision, which gave him enough face! After all, even if Li Ziqi goes out now, the other members will not say anything.
"Their team tried it and obviously failed. Liao Wenbing knew that there was no chance. Now he saw that we did not enter immediately, but some people were missing, so he instantly guessed that we would try to find a way, so he was ready to kill the horse and treat it as a living horse.
medical!"
Li Ziqi explained.
"Understood!"
Zhang Yanzong reacted.
People like Liao Wenbing, who don't care about face, are flexible and flexible, and put their goals first, are the most difficult to deal with. On the other hand, the leader of Chongde is not good at it and does not know how to adapt.
"You two, let's talk?"
Liao Wenbing smiled, showing his white teeth, and waved towards Li Ziqi and Zhang Yanzong: "I am relatively familiar with the situation in the cave."
This temptation is irresistible.
In fact, Li Ziqi had already planned to let Xuanyuan Po go in first to explore the way, at least to find out the types of poisonous snakes.
"You know how to make snake repellent powder? Can you give us some?"
Liao Wenbing laughed and had a great attitude.
"Where's your snake repellent powder? Swap it?"
Li Ziqi's posture was also very low.
"all right!"
Liao Wenbing was trying to test Li Ziqi by being polite first and then fighting.
If Xiao Hebao disagrees, then he will use the information in the cave in exchange. If the other party answers no, then I'm sorry, but my price will be higher.
Of course, since the other party has it, you have to be friendly to facilitate subsequent cooperation.
"How many kinds of snakes are there in the cave? I have a doctor here who can treat you!"
Li Ziqi looked worried. She seemed to be concerned about the students in Zhoushan, but in fact she was also asking for information, but it was probably of little use because she found that Liao Wenbing was too scheming.
"I don't know, but I've seen three kinds."
Liao Wenbing described it.
"Judging from the depth we entered the cave, we didn't encounter many snakes, so we just had to avoid it, but there was a python, which was too scary."
Liao Wenbing sighed.
"That python is so thick that two people can hug it. It's about thirty meters long. It can swallow a student in one gulp without any problem. Moreover, the snake will spit out green poisonous smoke."
While listening to Liao Wenbing's introduction, Li Ziqi looked at the expressions of the Zhoushan students to judge whether Liao Wenbing's information was correct.
Very good, the student showed a scared look, which shows that Liao Wen's information is correct.
The conversation between the two parties went very smoothly.
Not long after, Tantai Yutang came back.
"Give them half of the extra powder!"
Li Ziqi ordered, knowing that with Bingyangzi's character, she would definitely be more prepared.
"Ahem, take it!"
Tantai Yutang didn’t ask why.
Liao Wenbing saw this sick man covering his mouth with a handkerchief. There was blood on the handkerchief. He couldn't help but be shocked. How can you be selected into the student league despite your poor health?
"Let Lao Xiao check it."
Liao Wenbing handed the snake-repelling powder to the deputy leader, explained it, and walked back.
"You two, how are you thinking? It's too dangerous for a team to break into this Ten Thousand Snake Cave. It's better to form a team. Even if the teacher comes to the rescue, it will be smoother with eight teachers!"
This was Liao Wenbing's plan. He took aim at the signal tube of Zhongzhou University and wanted to double his insurance.
"Captain Liao has a good idea, but I want to try it out first!"
Li Ziqi refused.
"Hey, we in Zhoushan can't do it, let alone these Zhongzhou voices!"
"How arrogant!"
"Never mind them, let them try it. If a few people die, it will look good!"
Hearing Li Ziqi's words, the students in Zhoushan jeered.
"Classmate Li, you are a smart person and know how to choose."
Liao Wenbing frowned. He was worried that Li Ziqi would use the signal tube. If he broke through the Ten Thousand Snake Cave directly with the help of the teacher, he would suffer great losses.
"Sorry, we have to give it a try!"
After Li Ziqi finished speaking, he began to gather the team.
"Why don't we act together? There is strength in numbers!"
Zhao Zhi complained that even if a poisonous snake came, he could not outrun the poisonous snake, but he could always outrun those who were slower, right?
"I don't trust that Liao Wenbing!"
Li Ziqi's words are concise and concise.
"Okay, sprinkle the powder on your body and prepare the torches. Xuanyuan Po, Zhang Yanzong, Bai Wu, you three should still be the vanguard!"
Li Ziqi began to arrange the formation.
Zhao Zhi didn't want to leave, but had no choice, so he looked sad and felt sulky in his heart.
After more than ten minutes, after confirming that all the members were ready, Li Ziqi gave the order to set off.
"Captain, don't persuade them, just let them in!"
The deputy leader came over and watched the Zhongzhou student group enter the cave. He sneered: "They will know how to write the word "death" later!"
"Lao Xiao, how effective is their snake repellent powder?"
Liao Wenbing turned his head and shouted.
"Although I haven't tested it, I estimate that the effect is at least twice as strong as ours. Its taste is too strong."
Lao Xiao was amazed.
As a herbalist, Lao Xiao still has this judgment. After all, there are only a few kinds of herbs that can be used as snake repellent powder around here.
Liao Wenbing hesitated for a moment and then gave the order: "Everyone gather, let's follow!"
