Just as they entered a deep mountain two or three hundred miles away from Zhannan Kingdom, the carriage no longer ran recklessly like before.
Because the mountain road is steep and there are sharp turns from time to time, the carriage must drive slowly.
And this kind of road is the most dangerous.
In addition to the danger of falling off the cliff, there is also the possibility of bandits appearing from time to time.
Just when the Chaoge sisters were worried about being robbed on the way, suddenly a melodious flute sounded!
"Why does this flute sound so strange?
Doesn’t it look like a piece of music played by the wind?
Could it be that this is a tune unique to the people of Zhannan?"
Hearing the sound of the flute coming from outside the carriage, Chaoge inexplicably became alert and even began to release his wood-based skills, releasing them in a radius of 300 meters around him.
Jun Yumo's expression became solemn, and when Chaoge finished speaking, he suddenly took out the sword that was placed in the carriage, and his tone was serious.
"Wait a minute, no matter what happens outside, you stay in the carriage and don't come out."
Just as Jun Yumo finished his words, there was a sudden movement within the range that Chaoge's wood-based skills could detect.
Then, she saw countless snakes swarming towards the official road from the mountain!
This sudden strange vision made Chaoge look startled, he grabbed Jun Yumo's hand and said, "Wait a minute, I'll give you something.
The powder can be sprinkled on snakes, insects, rats and ants to drive them away."
When Jun Yumo heard this, a hint of suspicion suddenly appeared between his brows.
Before he could ask his question, Chaoge had already opened the medicine box behind his back and took out an earthen jar from it.
Looking at Chaoge's medicine box, his suspicion deepened.
The medicine box is so small, and although this earthen jar can hold it, why did his wife put such a large earthen jar in the medicine box instead of in the carriage?
Also, has Chaoge been to Zhannan Kingdom before?
She didn't even go out, so how could she know what was outside?
Without having the chance to ask his questions, Jun Yumo took the earthen jar and got out of the carriage!
"Sister, my brother-in-law looks a little serious. What happened?"
Looking at the obviously wrong atmosphere, Yun Chaoyu couldn't help but feel a sense of inexplicable panic in his heart.
After all, along the way, there were really not many things that could make her brother-in-law change his expression drastically.
Even if he encountered a robbery by hundreds of bandits, her brother-in-law remained calm and composed.
And now, just a sound of a flute, it turned out like this?
Even Yun Chaoyu, who had little experience, realized the seriousness of the matter!
Chaoge didn't have time to explain to her. She wanted to use wood-based skills to intercept those things before they came to the official road.
The culprit should be the person playing the piccolo behind.
"Just sit still for now. I have a headache. Don't talk and don't disturb me."
Chaoge didn't have time to explain to Yun Chaoyu. After she finished speaking, she leaned against the carriage and closed her eyes.
While using wood skills to control the tree roots and drive away those disgusting things that were about to rush onto the official road, he also used wood skills to search for the person playing the flute.
The densely packed snakes were comparable to the snakes in the snake den I encountered in the mountains while fleeing famine.
And these snakes are not as good as the snakes in the snake den.
There are snakes in the snake den, at least pythons, so killing one less is one less.
But there were countless snakes coming up the official road from the mountains, some as big as arms, one after another.
Chaoge used wood-related skills to control tree roots to intercept the snakes, or simply cut them in half, but snakes are very agile and their bodies can pass through gaps.
Sometimes, just when a tree root had stopped a few snakes passing by it, there would always be a few that would take advantage of the root's force to slip away through the gap.
Chaoge had a solemn expression, after a series of operations, which took less than a cup of tea, he was already shouting like a mantou, it was extremely exhausting!
Seeing her elder sister in such a state and hearing the sound of swords swinging and chopping things outside, Yun Chaoyu became even more anxious.
She didn't dare to disturb her elder sister, let alone go out to help, as that would only distract the people outside.
Just as Yun Chaoyu was looking at Chaoge sweating profusely, wondering whether he should do anything for her, he suddenly saw a big snake with thick arms slipping in through the half-open window of the carriage!
In a hurry, she picked up the crossbow that Chaoge gave her and shot directly at the snake's head!
The snake was halfway up the window when it was suddenly hit between the eyebrows. Its body paused, and before it could react, Yun Chaoyu hurried forward, threw it out, and quickly closed the window.
The rhythm of the flute sound outside became faster and faster. Chaoge finally found the person playing the flute on a big tree while intercepting the snakes.
Without thinking, she retracted the tree roots that were controlling the snakes and directly controlled the branches of the big tree, pulling the unsuspecting man off the tree!
The sound of the flute stopped abruptly, and before he could react, the tree roots that were exposed above the ground around him grew out from the ground and tied him up.
The flute player never expected that such a magical thing would happen!
He just felt a slap of branches on his body, and his whole body was out of control, as if someone pushed him from behind, and he fell off the tree!
And now the ground was rolling like a dragon, growing countless tree roots, which tied him up without any defense!
The piccolo in his hand had already fallen somewhere when he fell from the tree.
Everything happened too quickly, leaving him no time to react. How could he be controlled like this?
In order to prevent Jun Yumo's men from finding this man in a strange way, Chaoge controlled the roots of the tree and strangled him directly by the neck until he suffocated and passed out, and then he managed to retract the roots of the tree.
The guards who were killing the snakes on the official road heard the flute music suddenly disappear.
The hand swinging the sword does not stop and continues to kill!
The snakes that had lost the control of the flute were like headless flies. They no longer went up the official road or approached their carriages. Instead, they fled in panic as if they had spirits.
Jun Yumo and a few of his subordinates killed all the snakes nearby. He took out the earthen jar given by Chaoge and scattered it around the carriage before returning to the carriage.
After dealing with the snakes below, Mo Qi and a few others climbed up the mountain with ease.
Before Jun Yumo got on the carriage, he did not forget to take off his coat and threw it out!
When he thought of the numerous snakes outside that he couldn't kill, even though he had seen bloody scenes before, his hair stood on end!
Now suddenly entering the carriage, he only felt that his whole body was filled with the smell of snakes.
"Ma'am, what's wrong with you?"
