Chapter 11: Thirty-six fights in three days Chen Wei: How many fights do you want to fight...
Qinglong Peak is quieter at night than during the day. Some snakes hang on the trees and fall asleep. From a distance, they look like vines.
Shen Wei took every step very carefully. He lowered his voice and said, "Qing Si lives in the snake cave at the top, but his tail is injured. I guess he is in a bad mood."
"Yeah." Duan Zhou had a deep understanding of what it meant to have an injured tail and knew very well that no snake would be happy about it.
There was not a single bird on the entire Qinglong Peak, mainly because snakes and birds were mortal enemies. Chen Wei walked in front, and Duan Zhou followed him slowly. Suddenly, he heard the sound of a branch breaking. He subconsciously looked back and saw Duan Zhou with his hands behind his back, looking at Chen Wei calmly, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Did you hear any sound?" Shen Wei asked.
"No." Duan Zhou's tone was neither salty nor bland, and it made people lose the desire to talk to him. Fortunately, Shen Wei was always rough-minded and didn't notice this. He immediately nodded and said, "Maybe I was too nervous and had auditory hallucinations."
"Are you so afraid of snakes?" Duan Zhou narrowed his eyes slightly.
"I've been bitten by a snake." Shen Wei sighed. He used to live in an old house and was easily bitten by snakes. Fortunately, they were all non-venomous snakes. I don't know if this can be considered a blessing in disguise.
Duan Zhou's eyes darkened when he heard that, and he said nothing more. He watched Chen Wei walk towards the snake cave where Qing Si lived. He followed behind him not far away, and threw the little snake he had just caught in his hand into the haystack next to him.
The little snake was pinched until it was dizzy. It shook its head and looked at the two figures in a daze. It was just a little excited to see the sect master coming, so how could it be pinched so hard...
The snake cave where Qingsi lives is at the top of Qinglong Peak. It is not as magnificent as imagined, but just a huge stone cave. One can smell the cold air before reaching the door.
"Be careful." Duan Zhou stretched out his hand and pulled Chen Wei to the side, and then exchanged a glance with the five-step snake guarding the gate. The snake, which had been so proud and arrogant, immediately lowered its head, then shrank its neck and said awkwardly, "Sect Master."
Chen Wei then discovered that there were two snakes guarding the gate in the straw. He nodded helplessly and asked, "Where is your peak master?"
"The peak master was attacked by a white tiger and his tail was injured. He is recovering in the cave." When the incident was mentioned, the five-step snake immediately spat out its tongue angrily and said angrily: "The sect leader must seek justice for our peak master."
"Okay, okay." Shen Wei nodded in response.
"Go and inform Qingsi that Sect Master Shen is here to see him." Duan Zhou suddenly said, "We'll wait here."
"Okay, I'll go right away." The five-step snake nodded immediately and subconsciously turned its head to the snake cave. However, before it took a few steps, it suddenly remembered an important thing. It turned its head and said, "Who are you? Why should I listen to you?"
It was a five-step snake, extremely poisonous. Normally, who would dare to speak like that upon seeing it? However, Chen Wei saw that they were about to quarrel, so he immediately stepped in and said, "Go ahead, I'll wait for you here."
After hearing Chen Wei's voice, the five-step snake raised its head and swam away.
"They usually only listen to Qing Si, and they are five-step snakes, which are highly toxic, so they have a bad temper." Chen Wei said to Duan Zhou. As soon as he finished speaking, he felt Duan Zhou's eyes were always on him, and he said uncomfortably: "What's wrong with me?"
"Were you defending me just now?" Duan Zhou raised his lips slightly and said, "I..."
Just as he was about to continue speaking, the five-step snake that had just entered swam out again, shouting loudly: "Sect Master, the Peak Master asked you to come in!"
Duan Zhou's face darkened when his words were interrupted. He stared at the tactless snake. The snake had been swimming with its head held high, but he felt a chill when it was stared at.
Chen Wei nodded and walked straight into the cave, Duan Zhou followed behind him. The five-step snake was shocked when he saw this and immediately wanted to stop him, but when it met Duan Zhou's cold eyes, it suddenly froze and stopped where it was.
It was not until Chen Wei and Duan Zhou walked in that the five-step snake felt the chill disappear. It looked at itself hesitantly, then at the two people who walked in. It was very confused for a moment, and said with lingering fear: "Why do I feel like I'm being stared at by a snake..."
Chen Wei had no idea what the man and the snake behind him were doing. He was a little dizzy because of this snake cave. Qingsi's snake cave was very large, with many holes connected to each other, and he had no idea of the direction. Chen Wei walked inside according to the original owner's memory. At first he was very confident, but then he began to doubt himself. In the end, he stood there, looking at the countless holes in confusion, and fell into deep thought for a while.
"Sect Master Shen." Duan Zhou suddenly spoke.
"What's wrong?" Shen Wei was caught off guard by the shout. He subconsciously turned around to look at the people behind him, and then heard a hissing sound coming from a hole. At first he thought he had misheard, but soon the sound became more and more obvious. Shen Wei made a quick decision and said, "Follow me, it's on the left."
Duan Zhou responded and followed behind Shen Wei with his sword on his back. Seeing him following the hissing sound confidently, a hint of amusement flashed across his eyes. It seemed that this Sect Master Shen Wei was even more useless than he thought.
But soon Duan Zhou spat on himself again. He gripped the hilt of the sword and warned himself not to be deceived by this spiritual beast.
So he was alone, wavering between whether Shen Wei was really a waste, and secretly regretting it.
Qingsi was indeed at the innermost part of the snake cave. It had transformed into its original form and was coiled around a huge stone pillar. Its tail was wrapped in thick bandages, and a strong smell of medicine could be smelled from a long distance away. This snake had not been seen for only a few days, and it looked much more lethargic.
It had smelled Chen Wei's scent a long time ago and had been waiting. Finally, it saw Chen Wei's figure. It immediately came over and licked Chen Wei's face with its tongue, saying, "Brother, you are finally here."
As it said "wow", it felt a chill and looked towards the cave entrance with some confusion, and saw an uninvited guest.
"What are you doing here?" Qingsi immediately folded up his tail and coiled it up. He raised his head, his pupils erect, and looked coldly at the broken boat in front of him. He asked, "Who allowed you to come in?"
"Qing Si." Chen Wei quickly touched Qing Si's snake scales and said in a low voice, "A human swordsman."
These words seemed to trigger key words. After hearing this, Qingsi reluctantly returned to Chen Wei's side and pressed his big snake head on Chen Wei's shoulders, causing Shen Wei to stagger. Fortunately, Duanzhou reached out to support him.
"Boss." Qing Si said in a muffled voice, "I can't go to the sect conference on your behalf. I've heard that the rules of this conference have changed. You have a long journey ahead of you, so you must be careful."
"Is it dangerous?" Shen Wei asked.
"That's not the case." Qing Si denied, "For you, Boss, it's just a piece of cake. It's just more dangerous for other spirit beasts."
Shen Wei: ...
He felt that this trip might be even more dangerous for him.
"I'm going with Chi Luan this time." Chen Wei said, "I plan to leave Brother Duan in the Ten Thousand Beast Sect. You should entertain Brother Duan well when the time comes."
"What?" Qing Si raised his upper body as if he had heard bad news. He shook his huge head and said in protest, "No, Boss. Chi Luan loves to stir up trouble everywhere. Have you forgotten that when you took Chi Luan out before, you had 36 fights in three days?"
Shen Wei: ...
Duan Zhou, who was following behind him, heard this and a hint of smile flashed across his eyes. He looked at Chen Wei, who was dressed in white, leisurely. Chen Wei's face turned pale and he asked in a trembling voice, "How many games?"
"Thirty-six games." Qing Si said, spitting out his snake tongue, "He took Baihu out to fight twenty-one times, and he took me out to fight eleven times."
"What about Wu Man?" Shen Wei asked.
"Oh, there was no fight." Qing Si said. Shen Wei breathed a sigh of relief and was about to say that he decided to take Wu Man out. However, before he could finish his words, he heard Qing Si add: "Because it is a turtle and slow, it has not left the sect for three days."
Shen Wei: ...
Duan Zhou on the side sneered, he raised his hand to cover his lips, coughed lightly, and said: "As expected of Master Shen of Wanshou Tiandu, this fighting power is extraordinary."
There was a hint of teasing in his words. He leaned against the entrance of the cave, looking at Chen Wei in front of him, as if waiting for him to beg him. As long as Chen Wei opened his mouth, he might agree.
