Cold sweat instantly broke out on her back and palms, and Fu Wan's heart pounded rapidly.
The king cobra is a legendary snake. It is called the king cobra because, in addition to its posture when it stands upright when threatened, which resembles a mountain peak, it crawls extremely fast, moving as fast as the wind in the mountains.
The king cobra in front of Fu Wan was undoubtedly an adult snake, at least three meters long, with rings of yellowish-white horizontal stripes below its neck, and its forked tongue flicking in and out repeatedly.
A pair of cold, vertical pupils stared at the rabbit in Fu Wan's hand, occasionally emitting threatening "whoosh" sounds.
This is a king cobra, ready to attack at any moment.
Fu Wan felt the sweat on her forehead dripping into her eyes, stinging them painfully.
What do we do now?
This rabbit is probably not the kind that waits patiently for prey to fall into its trap, but rather a ruthless rabbit that tries to take someone down with it before it dies!
There was no way to break this stalemate. The mountain peak was staring intently at her, and Fu Wan felt like it was constantly searching for the best angle to attack.
Without time to think, Fu Wan threw the rabbit near the king cobra and then turned and ran.
At that moment, she felt the world was extremely quiet, with only the sound of her rapid heartbeat and the sound of her feet brushing against the grass.
I wonder if that snake has caught up with us yet?
Fu Wan didn't dare to look back; she had already run at her maximum speed, and only one thought was in her mind.
Run, run, run!
"Ah Wan!"
It was Bai Qianzhou and Fu Ming's voices!
Fu Wan wanted to shout loudly for them not to come any closer, but she was so anxious that she couldn't make a sound.
Just then, a whooshing sound rang in her ears. Fu Wan felt someone pull her, and then the two of them tumbled down a small hillside.
"hiss!"
Having finally been stopped from rolling downhill by tree branches, Fu Wan felt pain all over her body. When she sat up, she saw someone lying next to her.
It was Bai Qianzhou.
"Bai Qianzhou, Bai Qianzhou, wake up!"
She patted Bai Qianzhou's arm, but he didn't react for a long time. When she helped him up, she found that his head, which hadn't fully recovered, had hit a protruding rock again.
Fortunately, the stone was smooth. Fu Wan carefully examined his injury and thankfully, it wasn't the same wound as before, and there was no sign of bleeding.
Bai Qianzhou is really unlucky. Every time something happens, it seems to be his precious head that gets messed up!
"Awan, Xiaobai!"
Fu Ming and Ye Jianguo's shouts came from the hillside, and Fu Wan quickly responded.
We're here!
Upon hearing the answer, Ye Jianguo and Fu Ming rushed over. They breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Fu Wan was alright, but when they saw Bai Qianzhou lying next to her, their relief was immediately replaced by relief.
Damn it, I loosened it too early.
"What's wrong with Xiaobai?"
Ye Jianguo quickly went up to take Bai Qianzhou and examined him again.
"It's alright, it's just a bump on the back of my head. I'll have the village doctor take a look when I get back."
Fu Wan nodded, then remembered the mountain pass she had just crossed.
"Uncle, where did that snake go?"
Upon hearing this, Fu Ming turned around as if showing off a treasure, letting Fu Wan see his basket on his back.
"Ah Wan, look!"
Fu Wan peeked out, confused, and that one glance nearly made her lose her mind.
The cobra is hiding in the basket!
She was so frightened that she stumbled and fell to the ground if Fu Ming hadn't caught her.
"Ah Wan, you're such a coward! That snake is already dead!"
Fu Wan then realized that the giant snake had died, and she irritably slapped Fu Ming's hand away.
"Get out of here, you're just trying to scare me!"
Fu Ming chuckled. His sister had been terrified of these cold-blooded crawling animals since she was little.
"Uncle, how did this snake die? Did you kill it?"
Ye Jianguo carried Bai Qianzhou on his back and gestured for Fu Wan and the others to follow him down the mountain.
"I was the one who killed him!"
Fu Ming gestured as he recounted the events to Fu Wan.
When Fu Wan encountered the snake, they were just about to finish work. Bai Qianzhou noticed something was wrong and kept saying that he heard someone running.
There were only four people around, three of them were catching rabbits and pheasants, and Fu Wan was picking wild raspberries on the other side.
In case of any trouble, Ye Jianguo and Fu Ming quickly threw aside the rabbits they had tied up, picked up their tools, and followed Bai Qianzhou toward Fu Wan.
As soon as Bai Qianzhou arrived, he saw the snake lunge at Fu Wan. In a moment of panic, he rushed over and pulled Fu Wan away, saving her from certain death.
When the snake failed to attack, it turned around and pounced on Fu Ming. Ye Jianguo was an experienced hunter, and he couldn't let the venomous creature run rampant.
He grabbed the machete in his hand, quickly circled around behind the snake, and chopped at its vital spot.
Just as the snake lunged to attack Fu Ming, it was instantly cleaved in two by the wood-chopping knife.
Just as Fu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, the snake's head was still conscious and swam towards him. Fortunately, he wasn't stupid. He picked up the shovel in his hand and smashed it wildly until the snake's head on the ground turned into a bloody mess.
Fu Wan hadn't looked closely and thought they had captured the snake alive and put it in their basket.
"Why bring that dead snake back?"
Fu Ming gave him a look that said, "You don't understand this at all," and said, "Take it back, kill a chicken, and cook a pot of dragon and phoenix soup!"
"It's so noisy!"
A weak voice rang out, and Fu Wan and the others then realized that Bai Qianzhou, who was on Ye Jianguo's back, had woken up at some point.
He opened his eyes and looked around before realizing he was on someone's back.
"Sir, please put me down. I can walk by myself."
Fu Wan asked with concern, "Bai Qianzhou, how are you feeling?"
Bai Qianzhou looked at her in surprise, "Comrade Fu Wan, it's actually you?"
Where is this?
Something's wrong, something's really wrong!
Fu Ming and Ye Jianguo looked at each other, wondering what was going on.
Fu Wan immediately realized, "Dr. Bai, are you done?"
Bai Qianzhou was a little confused. "Am I not having a good time?"
Seeing Bai Qianzhou's familiar serious expression, Fu Ming clapped his hands and said, "Dr. Bai, you are truly amazing. You get up from where you fell down."
Last time I fell on a rock and was dumbfounded, but this time I fell on a rock and I'm smart again! Next time you see a rock, be careful!
He looked genuinely sincere, but inwardly he was thinking that if he had known then what he knew, he should have given Dr. Bai a rock back then; maybe he would have recovered by now.
Fu Wan was speechless at Fu Ming's words and simply ignored him, saying, "Dr. Bai, let's go down the mountain first. You can go see a doctor later."
Bai Qianzhou felt a throbbing pain in his head. He was clearly at home just a moment ago, but when he opened his eyes, he was in this unfamiliar place.
He recognized Fu Ming; he was one of his patients. But how come his leg was healed?
Even Fu Wan addressed him by his given name at first. Could it be that something happened that he forgot about?
"Excuse me, Comrade Fu Wan, what's the date today?"
This question was directed at Fu Wan, who was standing to the side. She reflexively replied, "August 23rd."
He clearly remembered that the day those people broke into his house was August 18th.
Five days have already passed!
He touched the gauze on the back of his head, and his eyes narrowed involuntarily.
Xue Qing has gone too far; he must make him pay a terrible price!
