Gu Mingtai stuffed a piece of meat from the other deer leg in his hand into her mouth and said, "I went out at dawn and went for a run. I didn't expect to be so lucky today and actually hunt a deer."
Zhang Meng raised the corner of her mouth and tore off a piece of venison from her hand and put it into his mouth.
This time, because the deer was killed by Gu Mingtai, the person who killed the deer was kind enough to give each of the couple a piece of deer leg meat.
The venison meal took almost half an hour to finish. After breakfast, everyone packed up their things and, upon hearing the call to depart, the group continued their journey into the deep mountains.
"Follow me closely, the situation ahead is not safe." After walking a few steps, Gu Mingtai suddenly came over and whispered these words in Zhang Meng's ear.
Zhang Meng was just about to ask what was going on when she turned around and saw that Gu Mingtai had Sheng Liyuan dragging her to the roadside to study herbs.
"What did your man say to you just now?" Liao Qingting came over curiously to ask.
Zhang Meng shook her head. "I don't know. He just said a few strange things and told me to stay close to him, saying that things were not safe up ahead."
But she still believed in her man in her heart, "You should be careful too."
Liao Qingting curled her lips and said nonchalantly, "What are you afraid of? My grandfather and the others are leading the way ahead. Nothing will happen."
Zhang Meng looked at her indifferent expression and shook her head.
The large army continued to move forward. This time, after about half an hour, the troops in front suddenly stopped, and were a little panicked.
"Ah, something is biting me, it hurts."
"I was bitten too, on my hands and feet." Many people in the crowd shouted in panic.
Seeing this, Liao Qingting was afraid that something might happen to her grandfather, so she quickly pulled Zhang Meng and rushed forward.
Gu Mingtai reached out to pull her, but failed. He could only watch his wife being dragged away by Liao Qingting.
Gu Mingtai gritted his teeth and cursed, "Damn Liao Qingting." Then he took big steps and followed.
When they came over, there was a commotion in front, and Mr. Liao was surrounded by a group of Liao family members.
As soon as they reached their destination, Liao Qingting let go of Zhang Meng's hand and ran anxiously to Old Man Liao, "Grandpa, are you okay?"
Old Master Liao shook his head and said, "Grandpa is fine. You should be careful too. There is something here."
Just then, someone else yelled that he had been bitten.
The miserable scream made Liao Qingting's face change. She looked around nervously with a bronze sword in her hand.
Only then did Zhang Meng understand why these people were shouting, because something flashed past her feet just now and touched her feet, which felt a little cold.
"Ah, it's snakes. Oh my god, why are there so many snakes?"
Just as Zhang Meng was on guard around him, someone in the crowd grabbed the thing that bit him and took it up. It turned out to be a weird-looking snake with five heads. The man yelled and subconsciously threw the snake away out of fear.
At this time, the sound of crawling could be heard from the bushes around them. "Everyone, take out the realgar you have and sprinkle it on yourselves."
Mr. Liao suddenly shouted.
After a while, everyone searched their pockets and bodies, and soon everyone found a bag of realgar powder they had brought with them.
"Are you okay?" Zhang Meng was just about to look for the realgar powder she had on her when suddenly a big hand grabbed her arm. Gu Mingtai looked her over anxiously.
"I'm fine, but Gu Mingtai, why are there so many snakes here? Have we come across a snake den?"
At this time, the snakes that were hissing in the grass finally came out. Colorful and strangely shaped snakes crawled towards them.
"Damn, these snakes don't seem to be afraid of realgar powder." Suddenly a curse came from the crowd.
Seeing that the realgar powder they carried was useless, everyone was frightened and quickly took out their life-saving weapons and started fighting for their lives with these snakes.
The sound of snakes crawling on the ground could be heard all around. Zhang Meng grabbed Gu Mingtai's hand in a daze, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Gu Mingtai held her hand tightly, his sharp eyes fixed on the group of snakes looking towards them.
He didn't know if he was being too suspicious, but he always felt that these snakes seemed to only attack the group in front, while the snakes on their side seemed to be deliberately avoiding them.
"Damn, such a snake! I only had one biscuit yesterday, and the venison I had this morning wasn't enough to fill my stomach, so I'll just catch you and roast you."
Someone grinned, a greedy glint in his eyes, and with a few shots of the gun in his hand, he killed one of the two-headed snakes flying towards him.
When the other snakes saw their companion being killed, they spit out their tongues very quickly. From time to time, snakes from all directions flew towards the man. In an instant, the man's body was covered with countless snakes. The man screamed a few times, and soon fell to the ground with a thud and lay motionless.
Mr. Liao, who was protected by everyone, suddenly narrowed his eyes and pulled someone next to him to whisper a few words in his ear.
The man nodded, dodging the snakes crawling around him and came to Zhang Meng. "Comrade Zhang Meng, Mr. Liao is looking for you."
Zhang Meng glanced towards Mr. Liao and saw that he was looking at her and nodded at her.
Zhang Meng didn't respond immediately, but instead looked at the man beside her. Gu Mingtai clenched the peach wood sword in his hand, his expression growing increasingly gloomy. There were more and more snakes here. The ground was already covered with dead snakes, but the snakes swarming towards this side seemed endless.
"Come on, I'll protect you there." Mr. Liao knew at a glance that the place where the most people gathered was where he knew. If anything really happened, there would be helpers to protect the little woman beside him.
Zhang Meng nodded and immediately followed Gu Mingtai's footsteps towards Mr. Liao.
On the short road leading to Mr. Liao, the snakes crawling on the ground suddenly changed direction when Zhang Meng and the others walked over.
Old Mr. Liao, who was standing not far away, saw the scene and a glint of understanding appeared in his eyes.
Zhang Meng walked over to Mr. Liao without any obstruction, "Mr. Liao, are you looking for me?"
The snakes' smooth behavior even made her wonder if they were afraid of her.
