Shang Yanting simply couldn't resist a raccoon like this.
Then, under the raccoon's "unreasonable tantrums," he caught up with Huo Rui and Niu Chuanchuan's water-cloud boat that night, which traveled a thousand miles a day.
"hey-hey!"
She's here!
The raccoon, carrying a small bag, looked at Shang Yanting on the deck and asked, "Host, are you really not coming?"
Logically speaking, this is his opportunity!
If he were here, how could Huo Rui and the others have gained any experience?
Moreover, Xianlong Peak cannot be left unattended for even a day.
"You should stay put and not go to dangerous places."
Shang Yanting opened her small bag containing talismans to make sure she had brought enough essential items (such as medicine, clothes, money, and spirit stones).
"Let Niu Chuanchuan and Huo Rui explore the unfamiliar places. You stay behind and observe carefully."
Shang Yanting put it bluntly, "If you encounter a danger you can't handle, you know what to do, right?"
"Know!"
Ignore everyone else and run ahead.
Use the sound transmission talisman to call for help, and he will come to rescue them.
She had said this twenty-three times on the way, and the idea of betraying her teammates had disappeared from her mind; only the words "normal risk avoidance" remained.
"Yes, very good."
Shang Yanting was very satisfied with her answer.
"Take good care of her."
Before leaving, he gave Niu Chuanchuan and Huo Rui some final words of advice.
Serpent Cave.
This was the first time Jia Xitong had heard the full name of this place. There was a small town about two or three miles from the Jiaoshe Cave.
Upon entering the town, one is greeted by a smell of sulfur mixed with other substances.
It's for snake protection.
The town was very clean, with not a single weed in sight.
The area was full of vendors selling a variety of things, but the selection was very limited: snake skin, snake meat, snake gallbladders, snake repellent powder...
Almost everything is related to snakes.
"Uncle, we're just passing through and we're curious why there are so many snake-related things in this town?"
The second senior brother is a good talker and can chat with anyone.
Then they quickly moved on to the topic they were interested in.
"Of course there are plenty of snake-proof things; there's a cave of ten thousand snakes just outside those two mountains."
The uncle pointed in the direction, which was the place they had mentioned, the Cave of the Flood Dragon and the Serpent. "Legend has it that the Cave of the Thousand Serpents is inhabited by the Serpent King, and there are countless snakes in all directions. Our town is also called the Town of the Thousand Serpents. Everything around us has been eaten by snakes, so the people in the town naturally eat snakes."
"oh."
The second senior brother nodded with an air of newfound knowledge, "Are there many snakes in the Ten Thousand Snake Cave? We'd like to go and take a look."
Why would you go to a place like that?
The uncle was puzzled. "A cave of ten thousand snakes? Of course, the ground is full of snakes. You'd better not go to a place like that if you don't have to."
Some people used to think that it might be a treasure trove, but when they went there they found there was nothing there.
It almost lured out the snake king that lived inside.
An older man on the street kindly advised, "If you want to find treasure, there's no need to go to a place like that. When it was first discovered twenty years ago, several groups of people came within two years, but they really didn't see anything, and two of them were even bitten to death by the snake king."
The second senior brother asked a question, and the little raccoon listened very attentively.
Indeed, the time spent in the original world was short, and the understanding was one-sided.
After all, every time she opened her eyes, Shang Yanting in the original story had already completed the final step, which almost made her mistakenly believe that the journey to the Flood Dragon Cave was very simple.
Fortunately, they stayed in the town for a day and amassed a large amount of snake repellent powder there.
early morning
They set off.
Leaving the town, the path to the Serpent Cave is surrounded by dense forest. The weather here is hot and humid, making it extremely suitable for snakes to live in.
Walking along the forest path, Jia Xitong had already spotted no fewer than six colorful snakes.
Huh!
How terrifying.
She transformed back into a raccoon, sitting in her newly bought little basket, where her twenty fellow disciples took turns carrying her.
"I never expected that Xitong was afraid of snakes."
The senior students joked and teased each other as they walked.
When she lost her mind, she even chased after Tie Danhua to bully her.
The image of the arrogant little tyrant is deeply ingrained in people's minds.
Now that she's acting so timidly, it's Tie Danhua who's paving the way ahead, showing more courage than her.
The second senior brother laughed the loudest at this moment.
But the next second he screamed.
In his moment of triumph, he happened to step on a green snake, about the thickness of a stick. His foot slipped slightly. The snake, cold, sticky, and elastic, immediately writhes upon contact with his foot, its mouth opening wide to bite at his ankle.
The second senior brother leaped up, focused his energy in his dantian, and sent his spiritual power soaring upwards, flying about ten meters into the air.
Luckily, I dodged quickly and wasn't bitten.
Jia Xitong stood up from the basket, perched on his tenth senior brother's shoulder to watch the scene unfold, and then said in a cheeky tone, "Second senior brother isn't afraid of snakes, second senior brother has great agility!"
"puff--!"
The other senior brothers around couldn't help but laugh, and the second senior brother immediately felt embarrassed.
"Everyone be careful, there's no road around here."
At this point, Huo Rui showed better emotional intelligence and changed the subject, saying, "Everyone should take out their snake repellent powder."
The closer you get to the serpent's lair, the more snakes you'll find.
The nineteenth senior brother had already called back Tie Danhua, who was running at the front, and stuffed him into the basket as well. The only way to make a path behind them was to throw snake powder around.
"Hurry up, everyone! Once the scent of this snake repellent powder is gone, they'll gather around again."
Niu Chuanchuan, who was covering the rear, keenly noticed this situation, and everyone's pace quickened, eventually turning into running.
Emerging from the dense forest, the surrounding environment suddenly opened up.
Ahead, a swift river flows, its riverbed piled high with large boulders.
Everything was exactly the same as what I saw in the original world.
Jia Xitong, who was originally only 80% certain, is now absolutely certain.
In the original story, Shang Yanting was lying on a large rock that looked like a hen incubating eggs near the river when he almost died from excessive bleeding.
I don't know if he's better now.
At this moment, Shang Yanting, who was lying on the bed in the original world, sneezed twice. Any slightly larger movement would aggravate the wounds on his body.
However, there was no medicine left in his room to treat his condition, and he was unable to go out to buy new pills.
Because there was no medication, the wound kept healing and tearing open.
Having exhausted all other options, Shang Yanting took out the talisman that the soul had given him again when it left.
He had never used this strange thing even once.
But at this moment, he had no choice.
Shang Yanting burned it, and the white ash fell into his palm. The dry taste was unpleasant to get stuck in his throat, so he swallowed it with water.
asshole!
After consuming the talisman, he felt inexplicably agitated.
If it doesn't work...
He burned all the talismans and then tried to stuff them into the mouth of the spirit!
