Chapter 143: Poisonous Snakes

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In a canyon somewhere.

A pile of rocks as tall as a person appeared in front of him. Tang Jinghong hurriedly stopped the horse.

Chu Qingzhi frowned slightly. “It’s not raining. Why would mountain rocks fall from the mountain?”

Yuan Hongjun looked up at the canyon. “Perhaps it’s because it hasn’t rained for a long time that the mountain rocks became loose and fell?”

Shen Yufeng dismounted. “1’11 go clean up the rocks.”

Shen Yufeng was known as a Hercules in the army. It was not difficult for him to carry a rock that weighed 100 kilograms.

Everyone got off their horses and helped to clean up the rocks.

Tang Jinghong moved a flat rock to the shadow and pulled Chu Qingzhi over to sit on the rock. “You don’t have to do that. Sit down and rest.”

Yuan Hongjun looked over, and a hint of surprise flashed across his handsome face. Brother Tang, who had never been close to women, actually treated Chu Qingzhi so well!

Gui Yuzhou also looked over with envy in his eyes. If he had a girl by his side, he would also treat her so well.

Shen Yufeng had long known Chu Qingzhi’s place in Tang Jinghong’s heart. He didn’t find it strange at all.

Yuan Hongjun was filled with endless questions. He wanted to ask about the relationship between the two of them.

At this moment, his expression suddenly changed. “Be careful. There are poisonous snakes on the tree!”

Tang Jinghong quickly pulled Chu Qingzhi out of the shadows. He pulled out his sword and slashed the snake that was pouncing at him and Chu Qingzhi into two.

The snake landed on the ground. Its body twisted, but it did not die. It opened its mouth and pounced at Tang Jinghong again. Its sharp snake teeth reflected a cold light under the sunlight.

Tang Jinghong raised his sword and slashed, cutting the poisonous snake in half. This time, the poisonous snake fell to the ground and died completely.

Yuan Hongjun was knowledgeable and immediately explained, “This snake is poisonous. If you get bitten, you will definitely die in ten minutes. Moreover, there is no cure. However, this snake normally lives in the desert and won’t appear in the Central Plains.”

As he spoke, there were more hissing sounds.

Tang Jinghong shouted, “Get on the horse. Let’s go.”

Yuan Hongjun looked back at the way they came from. He could not help but panic. “It’s too late.”

The snakes were covered in red, yellow, and black spots. At a glance, it was obvious that it was extremely poisonous. The big ones were the size of calves, and the small ones were the size of arms. As they flicked their tongues, they surrounded them from all directions.

“Hiss, hiss, hiss…”

The sound of the poisonous snakes flicking their tongues was endless, making one’s hair stand on end.

Shen Yufeng and the three soldiers immediately stood in a square and protected Tang Jinghong, Chu Qingzhi, Yuan Hongjun, and Gui Yuzhou in the middle. They held swords in their hands and used their actions to show that they would use their lives to protect the people behind them.

Chu Qingzhi was a little moved when she saw this scene. She looked at Tang Jinghong, wondering what he did to make his subordinates so loyal to him.

Shen Yufeng looked at the densely packed poisonous snakes that were constantly approaching and swallowed his saliva. “General, leave with Miss Chu and the Little Divine Doctor. We’ll cover you!”

A soldier’s eyes turned red as he said with a determination to die, “General, you must take care of yourself. In the next life, we will still be your soldiers.”

Tang Jinghong looked at the soldiers in front of him and said solemnly, “Try to save yourself if you can!”

Seeing that the poisonous snakes were already three meters away from them, Shen Yufeng threw caution to the wind and said, “Miss Chu, our general has never liked any woman. He has always kept his chastity and never got close to women. I hope you treat him well.” In the end, he shouted, “General, run!!!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed out to kill the poisonous snakes and strived to carve out a bloody path for his general.

“Wait!” Chu Qingzhi suddenly shouted.

Shen Yufeng turned around in confusion.

Chu Qingzhi took out a white flute condensed with spiritual energy from her sleeve, placed it by her lips, and blew it gently.

A strange tone flew out of the flute. It was like a breeze blowing across the water, like a feather gently brushing across the face, like snow falling gently to the leaves. It was very gentle and pleasant to the ears.

Beast taming was nothing to her.

As the sound of the flute spread, the poisonous snakes stopped one after another. They raised their heads high and swayed gently, as if they were intoxicated.

This scene stunned everyone on the spot.

After a while, everyone turned around to look at Chu Qingzhi. The woman with a faint smile was calmly playing the flute. Her ink-black hair fluttered gently, and her light green clothes fluttered.

At this moment, she really looked like a fairy who had descended to the mortal world to save them.

Everyone was stunned.

Tang Jinghong stared at Chu Qingzhi, an indescribable light shininig in his eyes.

Yuan Hongjun also stared at Chu Qingzhi with a strange look in his clear eyes. No wonder Brother Tang cherished her so much. If it were him, he would also treat such a girl as a treasure!

At this moment, the tune changed, and the poisonous snakes immediately changed directions and slithered away.

As the hissing sound faded into the distance until it disappeared, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.

A gust of mountain wind blew. Only then did everyone realize that their clothes were all wet and their legs and hands were trembling.

Chu Qingzhi put away the flute and staggered.

She was only at the Foundation Establishment realm now. Controlling tens of thousands of poisonous snakes had consumed a lot of her spiritual energy.

Tang Jinghong hurriedly carried her up and placed her on the rock to rest. “Qingzhi, are you feeling unwell?”

Chu Qingzhi shook her head. “I’m fine. I’m just a little tired!”

As she spoke, she suddenly saw an arrow flying towards them at high speed. She pulled Tang Jinghong and rolled on the ground to dodge the arrow.

Immediately, the soldiers quickly surrounded Tang Jinghong and looked around warily.

Tang Jinghong helped Chu Qingzhi up and shielded her behind him. He looked up at the masked man on the canyon with a deep gaze. “Who are you?”

The man smiled. “Go to hell and ask the King of Hell!”

He waved his hand, and a long line of masked men in black immediately appeared on both sides of the canyon. They stood in a line on the canyon. There were at least 500 of them, holding crossbows..
