"They are really making a fool of themselves. That white python has some spiritual power and must have awakened its mind. How can a mortal catch it? Isn't that courting death?"
Wuyou frowned. The injuries to his abdomen had not recovered yet, which was why he had not left the house for the past two days. He was thinking that after he recovered from his injuries, he would join forces with Fairy Luyao to get rid of the white python. He didn't expect that someone had taken action before him.
"Yes! That's why we need the Taoist priest to take action. It's not convenient for me to show up."
Lian Yi said calmly.
"Okay, I understand! I'll go to the government office right away."
Wuyou did not refuse, because those people went there just to deliver food to the white python.
Fengyu didn't say anything this time. After the matter was explained, he helped Wuyou back to the room, changed into a Taoist robe, and then left the inn.
After watching the two leave, Liang Chen asked in a low voice:
"Miss, do you think the county magistrate will listen to him?"
"At least they won't openly recruit people to die. For the private actions, you can arrange a few beggars to watch the front and back doors of the county government office. If there is any movement, notify me."
"Don't worry, Miss. I'll do it right away. Xiao Hui can also sneak into the county government office."
"Don't waste your talent. Let Xiao Hui stay at the county magistrate's house. If he doesn't do it openly, the private actions will be discussed at home."
"Okay! Xiao Hui can definitely do it!"
After saying that, he ran away excitedly.
That afternoon, Feng Yu came back with a letter, saying that the county magistrate had agreed not to capture the white python, but only kept his master in the county government office. He wanted my master to perform a ritual to pray for everything to go well in the coming year.
"I understand. Let your master recover in the county government office. Don't look for me if you need anything. I believe you can handle it."
Ripple said with a smile.
Feng Yu's mouth twitched when he heard this, but he did not refute it, because his master said that Fairy Lu Yao looked very young, but her cultivation was comparable to that of his master Ziyun. Although he was doubtful, he did not dare to be disrespectful.
"Yes, Fengyu will definitely convey Fairy Luyao's words to Master."
Then he packed his bags and went to take care of his master.
That night, Lianyi avoided her maid, summoned the Lei Yao Sword, and flew directly to the bamboo forest waterfall where she had stopped before. She concealed her breath and figure, sat cross-legged on her natal sword, and waited for the white python to appear.
The waterfall still looked the same as before, except that the bodies of the escorts were gone, leaving only the boxes.
Qianyi, who was originally resting with his eyes closed, sensed something. He opened his eyes and found a group of people slowly moving towards the box beside the waterfall.
Lianyi took a quick glance and saw that the leader was a young man with a shifty look and obviously no martial arts skills. His footsteps were heavier than those of the others.
"Master, let's go back! I heard there's a white python here. We are no match for it."
A man in brown clothes reminded in a low voice.
"This is a good opportunity for me to show off. If I can find the lost dart by One-Eye on my own, my father will definitely look at me with new eyes. Then I can inherit the escort agency sooner and avoid being ridiculed by that bitch Wen Lu."
Chang Shunyuan said through gritted teeth.
"But."
The man still refused to give up and wanted to persuade his young master.
"Shut up! Even if there really was something there, you'd have alarmed it!"
Chang Shunyuan waved his sleeves impatiently to interrupt the other party.
There was a flash of dissatisfaction in the brown-clothed man's eyes, but he finally shut his mouth.
Lianyi heard the whispers between the two people. She didn't expect such a coincidence that the useless leader was actually the young master of Changwei Escort Agency who had made things difficult for Aunt Wen. She liked this kind of coincidence.
Until these people touched the place where the boxes were piled, there was no unusual movement around the waterfall and the bamboo forest. Chang Shunyuan became bolder. He thought that someone must have spread rumors that made people afraid to get close. There was no white python at all.
Chang Shunyuan gently tore open the seal of a box, then opened the lid. Inside were several antiques. After confirming that they were the things escorted by One-Eye, he immediately waved his hand and asked the people who followed to carry the box away.
"Hurry up, put it on the carriage, and let's go!"
"Yes, Master!"
The escorts who followed were nervous for a long time, but when they found that there was nothing unusual, they became bolder and started to lift the boxes in groups of two.
Lianyi, who was hiding, noticed that in the gap between the stacked boxes, several small white snakes had been startled by them. They were spitting out their snake cores, swinging their tails, and then swam up along the boxes.
When Chang Shunyuan closed another box he had checked, he found a little white snake. He was startled at first, then he subconsciously swung the dagger in his hand and directly cut off the little white snake's head.
When the blood flowed out, he was nervous for a while, then he found that the little white snake was indeed dead, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"What white python? It's just a small white snake. It scared these people half to death."
Then he casually wiped the bloody dagger on his sleeve and asked the escort to speed up.
Several bodyguards also noticed their young master's actions, and seeing him easily deal with a small white snake, they didn't say much.
"Tsk! What an idiot!"
Ripple shook her head.
At this time, there was movement in the waterfall. The rapids falling from the top of the waterfall had changed from transparent to white. Lian Yi's spiritual sense swept over and found that it was a group of white snakes connected head to tail, and there were countless of them.
"Master, run!"
Suddenly someone exclaimed, apparently he had discovered something unusual in the waterfall. Groups of small white snakes had come onto the land and were swimming towards them quickly, apparently having locked onto their prey.
Chang Shunyuan was startled by the shouting, and turned to run, but he was tripped by a box, which then moved and hit his calf. He didn't care about anything else, and simply overturned the small box, got up and ran.
The dozen or so escorts he brought with him were already in a state of panic. They didn't care about their young master's life or death at all. They rode on their restless horses, pulled the several boxes that had been placed there, and ran away.
"Asshole! Wait for me! Be careful or I'll tell my dad."
Chang Shunyuan limped towards the bamboo forest, threatening the escorts as he ran. The escort who reminded him paused for a moment, obviously still wanting to get his young master on the horse.
But the next moment, the horse under him stood up, neighed, threw the escort off, and then ran away.
"Young Master!!!"
The escort looked behind Chang Shunyuan in horror, and his voice changed.
At this time, a giant white python had opened its bloody mouth and bit off Chang Shunyuan's upper body with one accurate bite. Then it shook its head and swallowed the lower half of his body into its stomach.
Then the white python spat out its snake core, stared at the frightened escort with its scarlet eyes, twisted its body, and opened its bloody mouth again.
Lianyi waved her finger, and the Lei Yao under her feet turned into a flash of lightning and rushed straight into the mouth of the white python.
Feng Ling coded another chapter after dinner. It was 40 degrees Celsius today! I was sweating even when I was sitting! It was so hot!
