Seeing everyone so distressed, Yunqi really wanted to bring out the gasoline from his spatial storage, but that was just a thought.
No, I have a solution.
Yunqi said, "Everyone, quickly find the oil we brought this time. With the help of oil, the fire will be able to burn."
Although these cooking oils do not have the flammability of diesel engine oil, the hay that had been coated with cooking oil quickly caught fire and showed signs of burning more and more intensely.
Once the damp firewood starts burning, it produces much more smoke than dry firewood. With the help of the wind today, all the smoke is rushing into the cave.
The snakes that were originally at the cave entrance slowly retreated into the cave as the fire intensified.
But as the smoke entered, the snakes of all sizes that had been hiding inside the cave began to push their way out.
The villagers guarding the cave entrance to prevent any fish from escaping couldn't help but rub their goosebumps; the sheer density of the fish was truly unbearable.
Seeing more and more snakes, everyone stopped caring whether the firewood was dry or not, and added as much as they could find, because with such a big fire, even wet firewood would surely catch fire.
As the fire grew larger and the smoke thickened, people could even smell the aroma of roasted meat coming from the smoke.
Besides keeping watch at the cave entrance, the more than two hundred villagers began to search for firewood around the cave, determined to thoroughly smoke it this time.
Si Cheng went from being on high alert at the beginning to becoming more and more adept at fighting the giant snake. Not only did he wield the whip more freely, but he also gained a new understanding of the limits of his own body.
With each flick of the whip, if it missed the snake's body, the stone it struck was instantly shattered by the force of his blows.
The giant snake also had marks on its body.
It seems that this mutated snake is exceptionally different; not only is its venom very potent, but its scales are also exceptionally hard.
This cunning snake also knew its own weakness, and in the long struggle, it protected its weakness perfectly.
Si Cheng wasn't in a hurry. Seeing the fire burning in the cave behind him, he slowly moved towards the open space behind, gently leading the angry giant snake away and giving the villagers more space to deal with it.
Stimulated by the smoke, the snakes inside the cave, disregarding the raging fire outside, began desperately trying to squeeze out.
But those who were already waiting outside wouldn't give them that chance. With each swift strike, breaking through these multiple layers of defense was simply impossible.
Although the villagers of Pinghe Village had taken ample precautions, it was inevitable that some people would be bitten by these irrational snakes due to the sheer number of snakes attacking them.
As Liu Fengya watched the villagers carrying dead snakes to treat their wounds, he couldn't help but swear.
"Although I brought all sorts of antidotes with me, you guys better be careful, because these medicines are really hard to mix together."
Although he was muttering to himself, his hands never stopped moving, and he applied plenty of powder, without any shortage.
At this moment, Yun Qiao also came over holding a five-step snake. "This damn snake actually pounced at me. I just blocked it with my hand, and it actually bit me."
Seeing his swollen and blackened hand, Liu Fengya immediately grabbed a strip of cloth and tied his arm tightly. He then immediately started cursing, "Are you stupid or what? Don't you know this snake is highly venomous? Why aren't you using one hand to pinch your own arm? Why are you still holding onto it? Do you want to die even faster?"
Yun Qiao said, "I was just worried that you wouldn't know what kind of snake bit me. Besides, with you here, I'm sure I'll be fine."
Hearing his trusting tone, Liu Fengya showed no sign of being moved and immediately retorted, "What if this medicine runs out and you didn't do any preliminary treatment? Do you think your life will be wasted?"
But his actions were anything but polite. He picked up the prepared scalpel blade and deftly drew a large cross on the wound.
Yun Qiao immediately screamed, "Be gentle, and why did you cut such a big wound? You're taking revenge on me."
Liu Fengya squeezed hard on the wound, and the dark blood flowed down with each squeeze.
"You need to learn a lesson. You can never be so careless. If the snake venom gets into your internal organs, it will take a long time to recover and it will also damage your body."
As a doctor, Liu Fengya couldn't stand people who didn't take their bodies seriously. They could have reduced the amount of poison entering their bodies, but because of their carelessness, they not only delayed their recovery but also wasted so much of his medicine. How could they learn their lesson if they didn't suffer a little?
As the fire grew wider and larger, fewer and fewer snakes were able to escape. However, no one dared to relax and continued to add firewood. The fire became increasingly fierce, and everyone was forced to retreat due to the smoke.
Sicheng's teasing fighting had thoroughly enraged the arrogant giant serpent.
The constantly spraying venom corroded the grass on the ground, and Sicheng narrowly avoided it several times.
Its snake tail always tried to wrap around him from behind, instinctively, but Sicheng would never give it that chance.
Its snake tail, after being repeatedly lashed by the large iron whip, is no longer very nimble and can only drag behind, unlike before.
Its cold eyes were fixed on Si Cheng. It was filled with hatred for the human in front of it. After being defeated one after another, it did not think about escaping. It only wanted to devour the person in front of it alive.
After such a long battle, Si Cheng had become quite adept at wielding the large iron whip in his hand, and was not afraid of its cold, menacing gaze at all.
But being stared at by such cold eyes is uncomfortable for anyone. Si Cheng raised the iron whip in his hand and continued to attack its eyes, but unsurprisingly, it dodged it again.
After dodging, the giant snake quickly opened its blood-red maw and lunged at Si Cheng, but Si Cheng, who had anticipated this move, dodged to the side again.
This back-and-forth probing fight made the villagers who had stopped to watch nervous, and some even raised their crossbows, thinking of helping out from the sidelines.
Upon discovering this, Wu Yong quickly stopped them, saying, "Don't cause any more trouble at this time."
"How is this causing trouble? Even if we miss the shot, we can still distract it, making it easier for the village chief to make his move."
“Yes, Brother Yong, it’s better for so many of us to go together than for the village chief to fight alone.”
Wu Yong said, "What if this snake turns around and targets you? Can you escape? We should just stay here and guard the area. Don't cause trouble for Brother Cheng. If there's a real need, Brother Cheng will definitely ask."
