Chapter 132 Chapter 132 Search (Twenty-three)
The giant python struggled for a while, and when it realized that its efforts were in vain, it collapsed to the ground like a deflated ball, and said weakly: "I know I was wrong, can you let me go?"
"No problem, just break the barrier here first." Ning Helan said.
The giant python looked at Ning Helan with a frown, and muttered: "The barrier was set up by my master. How could I have the ability to set up such a huge barrier? Can't you even see this..."
"Really..." Ning Helan narrowed his eyes, "Then take me to see your master."
The giant python shook its head repeatedly when it heard this: "No, no, no, the master is in seclusion, no one can disturb him!"
Yun Yan next to him said: "Seclusion? No wonder the surroundings are sealed off. What is the relationship between your master and Linglan Temple?"
The giant python said: "The master...he is the master of Linglan Temple."
"Master?" Ning Helan and Yun Yan were both surprised to hear this title.
The person in charge of a Taoist temple is generally called the abbot or the abbot, and there are also people like Xuanyu Zhenren who preside over the work.
Calling him the master doesn't sound like a regular Taoist temple, but Linglan Temple is clearly an authentic Taoist temple.
"Your master is not human, right?" Ning Helan suddenly said.
The giant python was obviously startled, and his yellow eyes stared at Ning Helan: "You, how do you know?"
"... guessed."
"..."
Ning Helan was indeed guessing. Who would raise such a snake monster as a pet? Even if they want to raise one, they would raise some fairy beasts with fairy spirits, or spiritual ones. Generally speaking, they are kind, not the evil spirit in front of them.
To put it another way, even if his master is a human, he can't avoid being immersed in the evil spirit.
Thinking from another perspective, the master of Linglan Temple is a monster? This is a big deal.
No one spoke and the air suddenly became quiet. Qian Jin poked his head out from behind Yun Yan tremblingly: "Two great gods, I, I want to ask if I can still find my companions? Can we still get out of here?"
"Yes, you still have companions." Yun Yan looked at the giant python, "Do you know where his companions went? There seem to be three men and two women."
The giant python raised its eyelids and glanced at Yun Yan: "How should I know."
"Hey you..." Yun Yan saw that the giant python had a bad attitude and wanted to teach it a lesson, but the next second he saw Ning Helan reached out and pressed the giant python's head, and then the giant python's head suddenly bounced up, and its expression wrinkled, as if it was in pain.
"Hiss!" The giant python shook its head to avoid Ning Helan's hand, "Don't press, don't press! It hurts!"
It turned out that Ning Helan had just stretched out her hand and pressed the barbs of the vines into the giant python's head, causing the giant python to curl up its long body in pain, with a mask of pain on its face.
"Speak nicely." Ning Helan looked at the giant python, her tone was very light, but the strength in her hands was really great.
"I'll speak nicely, I'll speak nicely, don't press, don't press!" The giant python hurriedly agreed.
Ning Helan then withdrew her hand.
The giant python said aggrievedly: "There are a lot of snakes here, and they have been very active recently. Your companion... I guess he was eaten."
"What?!" Qian Jin was so scared that he almost shouted out.
Ning Helan didn't say anything, but silently raised her hand and pressed down the vines on the giant python's head. The giant python immediately gasped in pain: "Don't press! I'm telling the truth, I'm not the only snake here! You saw it just now, there are snakes everywhere."
Yun Yan folded his hands and said: "I heard from the brothers in the sect that some snakes will drag food into their nests and then share it with other companions."
Qian Jin was very nervous: "Are you saying that my companion was dragged into the snake's nest by the snake?"
"Yes, it's very possible." Yun Yan said.
"It's over..." Qian Jin looked hopeless and almost cried out.
Ning Helan also agreed with Yun Yan's guess. He turned his head to look at the giant python. The giant python shuddered and moved to the side: "I know where the snake's nest is. I'll take you there! Don't prick me!"
Ning Helan was amused. He snapped his fingers, and the vines tied to the giant python began to loosen, and then retracted one by one, leaving only the vines on the giant python's head, like a wreath tied to its head.
The giant python twisted its body. Although its body was covered with snake scales, which could block most external attacks, the barbs of the vines were sharp and thin, and all pierced directly into the flesh through the gaps in the scales, which was really painful.
It felt that the vines on its head had not been touched yet, so it looked at Ning Helan, who smiled slightly: "I'll untie you when we get there."
The giant python curled its lips speechlessly, turned its body around, and faced the cliff.
Ning Helan jumped onto the giant python's body lightly, and then grabbed the vines on the giant python's head with one hand. He turned around and rushed to the two people below: "Come up."
"Here I come!" Yun Yan was a little excited, riding a snake! He never dreamed that he could ride such a big snake. The snake's scales were very slippery. He had to tighten his core to avoid sliding down when he stood on it.
Qian Jin below didn't dare to go up at all. He felt that he was going to faint just by looking at the snake's eyes.
"Qian Jin, if you don't come up, we will leave." Ning Helan said.
"Just come up and grab me." Yun Yan leaned over to pull him. Qian Jin tremblingly stretched out his hand, gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and suddenly kicked his legs to climb up. This immediately made him several meters higher on the snake, as if he was standing on the shoulders of a giant. Qian Jin immediately hugged Yun Yan's arm tightly like an octopus.
"Click!"
Brother Ji's cry came from the bottom of the snake. It turned out that it couldn't jump high now without hair, and couldn't get up. In addition, the snake scales were very slippery. After several attempts, it could only jump in the same place. Brother Ji was so angry that he pecked at the giant python in front of him.
"Don't peck, don't peck!" The giant python twisted its body, "I'll be shorter!"
Then the giant python flattened its body. The snake, which was several meters tall, became like a compacted cake, only as high as a person's knees. Brother Ji flapped his hairless chicken wings twice and successfully climbed onto the giant python's body. However, the scales were too slippery and he fell every time he took a step. However, he still had to maintain his elegant demeanor after standing up.
In order to maintain balance, Brother Ji's claws dug into the giant python's flesh fiercely. The giant python felt pain but dared not complain. It rushed down the cliff with a droopy face.
"Ahhh!" The sudden feeling of weightlessness almost made Qian Jin's heart jump out. He screamed and hugged Yun Yan tightly, grabbing Yun Yan's arm with one hand and pulling Yun Yan's hair subconsciously with the other hand.
"Stop pulling my hair!"
"Ahhhhh!" The chicken flapped
its wings subconsciously because of the weightlessness, and its claws tightened: "
