Ning Helan helped the girl next to her: "I know how to detoxify, let's move them up first."
"...Oh oh." Yun Yan was stunned for a moment and quickly reached out to help. How come Ning Helan knows everything? No wonder the real person always looks at him differently.
Qian Jin lay on the edge of the pit and stretched out his hand to pull up the people they helped up. One was unconscious, and the other was unconscious. His face became uglier and uglier: "Wake up, hey, Ah Zhou wake up! Xiaomi! Dawei!"
"What happened to them?" Qian Jin looked at Ning Helan for help, "Master, what happened to them?"
"Poisoned." After Ning Helan moved the last person, he supported himself with both hands and jumped onto the snake's body.
"Poisoned?!" Qian Jin hurried to check everyone's face, "The lips are purple, and there are bite marks on the neck... It's indeed poisoning."
Then Qian Jin took out a box of injections from his bag, and took out an alcohol wipe: "I have a universal antidote here..."
Ning Helan stopped Qian Jin who was about to give him an injection: "No, it can't be used."
Then he explained: "Their poison is not ordinary, we have to suck out the poison first."
"Suck it out?" Qian Jin hesitated, "Then, then I, I'll do it."
Ning Helan stopped him again: "Listen to me first."
"Their poison is not ordinary snake venom. These are snakes that have become monsters. They can't be injected with ordinary antidotes or serums now. Let me help them detoxify first." Ning Helan said.
Qian Jin looked at his companion lying on the ground and then at the serum in his hand, and nodded as if he understood.
"Yun Yan, give me some talisman paper."
"Okay."
Ning Helan picked up the talisman paper and drew some talismans on it. He remembered that his grandfather did this, but he had never done it before. After drawing a talisman, he suddenly remembered: "Yun Yan, go find some detoxifying grass nearby."
"What grass?" Yun Yan didn't understand.
"Everything in the world is interdependent and mutually exclusive. Where there are poisonous snakes, there are herbs that can detoxify them. They may be mosses, grasses or something else. They should be nearby. I've read in the Records of Demons and Ghosts that the detoxifying herbs of these snake monsters look very similar to them."
Yun Yan was worthy of being a Taoist disciple. When he heard Ning Helan say this, he understood: "I'll go right away!"
Qian Jin saw Yun Yan running away, and Ning Helan was also drawing talismans seriously. Looking at his companions on the ground, he was anxious in his heart. He reached out and touched their hands. Their body temperature was already lower than that of ordinary people. If this continued, someone would definitely die.
"..." Qian Jin opened his mouth and wanted to say something to Ning Helan, but he was afraid of disturbing him, so he closed his mouth. However, he felt uneasy in his heart. He opened and closed his mouth again and again, but couldn't squeeze out a single syllable for a long time.
"Don't worry, it's okay." Ning Helan didn't look up at Qian Jin, but finished the last stroke in his hand.
Qian Jin felt much more at ease. He didn't expect that this young Taoist priest was young, but he felt very safe. The young Taoist priest who just left was also young, but he still felt a little bit short.
When he was feeling uneasy, he happened to see Yun Yan running over with a handful of moss.
"Ning Helan, look, is this it?" Yun Yan spread out his hands. The color of the moss inside was different from the ordinary green or blue-brown. It was red and purple, a little fluorescent, as if it was dyed.
Ning Helan picked it up and looked at it. It was very similar to the color of the snakes in the snake pit: "Well, it should be this."
Yun Yan smiled, handed the thing to Ning Helan and hid one hand behind his body.
Qian Jin saw Ning Helan spread a little paper on the ground, then spread the moss on it, picked up a small stone at hand, and then began to grind these plants.
Soon the wet moss was crushed to produce a lot of juice. Ning Helan soaked the talisman in the juice and then carefully pasted it on the bite wound of each person.
Then Ning Helan drew a circle around the people and wrote a lot of words on the edge of the circle. Yun Yan recognized that this was the Nine Palaces Pure Heart Formation.
After drawing and writing everything, Ning Helan stood in the center of the formation, closed his eyes, and began to chant a spell: "Qian Kun borrows the law, the eight trigrams are the guide, the five elements are mutually generated, and the evil spirits are driven away!"
As the spell was cast, the formation under Ning Helan's feet lit up, and the talisman paper also responded by emitting a faint light.
The yellow talisman paper gradually became darker, and the faces of the unconscious people gradually recovered. After a while, the talisman paper turned black.
Ning Helan opened his eyes, and the formation under his feet disappeared. He lowered his eyes to look at the people lying down, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Yun Yan stepped forward to check the person closest to him, and uncovered the talisman paper on his neck. He saw that the skin underneath that was bitten had returned to normal color, and his face was much rosier: "Are you okay?"
Qian Jin hurried over when he heard it. He anxiously checked everyone, and it seemed that they were indeed okay. After the talismans on their necks were torn off, they turned into black powder.
"Are they okay? They're okay!" Qian Jin shook one of them happily, "Dawei, Dawei?"
Ning Helan let out a long breath, and then said: "Although the poison in their bodies has been detoxified, the snake venom just now has sucked a lot of their energy, so it is better to send them to the hospital."
"Okay, okay, I'll call right away." Qian Jin nodded repeatedly, took out his mobile phone and called the rescue number.
Seeing that these people were fine, Yun Yan also showed a relieved expression.
When he retracted his gaze, he saw Ning Helan looking at him: "...What, what's wrong?" Ning Helan walked towards him: "Let me see your hand."
Yun Yan looked at Ning Helan, then stretched out his hand behind his back. There was a large purple-blue swelling on his wrist, and there were two very small tooth holes on it.
"You were bitten just now?"
"Well, when I was looking for these detoxifying mosses, a snake suddenly rushed out... But I have already dealt with it, it's okay."
Ning Helan squatted down and smeared some of the remaining detoxifying juice with her fingers, and then rubbed it on Yun Yan's wrist: "Why don't you say it?" "
I... I thought it was already messy enough here, and I'm a Taoist disciple, so I should be able to detoxify this little bit of poison." Yun Yan smiled a little embarrassedly.
Ning Helan suddenly thought of Fang Hui. This young master would not hide anything. He would howl for a long time if he was scratched. He should hurry up and deal with things here and go to find him, otherwise he would probably be eaten by wandering ghosts.
After Yun Yan applied the detoxifying grass juice on his wrist, the bruises and swellings quickly disappeared, and the stinging sensation of the poison was relieved a lot. Fortunately, the bite was short. He touched the injured area and suddenly heard a rustling sound from the snake pit behind.
"Ning Helan..." He looked at Ning Helan, and when he turned his head, he saw that Ning Helan was also staring at the direction of the snake pit. It was obvious that he had heard it.
Two of the people who were unconscious before woke up, but they were still very weak. The two girls were more seriously poisoned and are still unconscious.
Ning Helan turned around and said to Yun Yan: "You and Qian Jin rescue the people first, I'll go over and take a look."
"Be careful." Yun Yan said.
"Little Taoist priest, be careful!" Qian Jin also said with concern.
Ning Helan turned around and ran to the snake pit. She saw that the few small snakes that had been motionless in the snake pit had all woken up and were surrounding the glowing egg. Now there was a crack in the eggshell, and it was obvious that something was moving inside.
Soon, the crack in the eggshell became bigger and bigger, and the shell broke. A purple snake emerged from it. The snake was not big, only about one or two meters long, and it was dark purple all over. There were some golden scales on the snake scales. If you didn't know it was a monster, you would definitely think it was beautiful.
But Ning Helan saw at a glance that the iconic golden scales on the purple snake were the great monster in the records - the hook snake.
Hook is born in the nest of thousands of snakes, which is dark and miasma-filled. It is one to five meters long, with purple scales like gems all over its body. It can spray miasma from its mouth, and its golden scales are extremely poisonous. Legend has it that one piece of it can kill everyone in a city. Its toxicity is hundreds of times more than that of the hook snake, also known as the intestinal weed, hence the name hook snake.
"Hiss..." When the hooked snake saw Ning Helan, its eyes suddenly narrowed, "Why did the Taoist come here?"
Unlike the snake's appearance, a two-meter-long snake is considered a juvenile for this kind of snake, but the voice of this snake is very much like a middle-aged man. Ning Helan remembered that it was written in the Book of Demons and Ghosts that this snake hatches once every hundred years, and every time it reaches the age of a hundred, it will wrap itself in the egg again, and will not appear again until the next hundred years. Judging from the voice of this snake, it is estimated that it is a thousand-year-old snake spirit that has been hatched no less than ten times.
The hook snake sniffed the air and hissed, "It smells like a living person, and a Taoist priest with abundant spiritual power. Mingxin's offering to me this time is really good."
"Mingxin?" Before Ning Helan could ask the hook snake in detail, he saw the hook snake straighten its upper body, open its mouth, and suddenly spray out a large stream of purple gas.
It was miasma!
Ning Helan turned and ran, and soon caught up with Yun Yan and Qian Jin in front: "Hurry up! Walk faster!"
He shouted. Yun Yan, who was carrying a girl on his back, heard the voice and looked back. He saw the purple-blue gas spreading behind Ning Helan who was running over: "Is this... miasma?"
Ning Helan ran over and took out a talisman paper from Yun Yan's arms and threw it behind him. The talisman paper was fixed in mid-air, and a transparent barrier was opened in an instant, blocking the spread of miasma.
"Hurry up, this miasma is very strong, and ordinary barriers can't stop it for too long!" Ning Helan said, stretched out his hand to help another boy up, and then ran away.
Qian Jin hadn't realized what was going on yet, but he saw that Ning Helan looked anxious, so he didn't dare to walk slowly and hurried to catch up.
Several people ran in the cave, and the poisonous miasma quickly broke through the barrier and followed behind. Wherever the miasma reached, the moss plants withered and died, and even the cave walls were corroded by the poison and turned dark purple.
After running for a while, Qian Jin said breathlessly: "We, we just now, no, that chicken, didn't that chicken lead all the snakes out, now, are those snakes at the entrance of the cave?"
"Yes, we won't run into those snakes head-on, right?" Yun Yan also looked at Ning Helan, Ning Helan said: "No, the giant python is still outside."
As he spoke, several people ran to the cave entrance. The giant python that had been on standby at the entrance of the cave poked its head over, and the boys who had just awakened from the poisoning suddenly looked at the giant python's big face, and then fainted from fright.
"You finally got out." The giant python was quite aggrieved. "There are so many insects in this dense forest. I was bitten."
"Click." Brother Chicken also staggered over. It seemed that he was not hurt at all after being chased by snakes just now.
"Where are all those snakes? Did you eat them?" Yun Yan was very surprised. There was only the evil spirit of those small snakes around, but not a single snake could be seen.
"Those snakes are all poisonous. I won't eat them." The giant python pointed to the big pit next to it with its tail. "They are all buried in it."
Yun Yan looked out and saw that there was a big pit made by the giant python. The thousands of snakes were all half buried in the soil in the pit. Because the soil was created by the giant python, it was very sticky and the snakes could not get out.
"I'm curious about what you did in there. How did you drive all the snakes out? Didn't you see my master?" The giant python poked its head in and stepped back in fear. "It was my master's miasma! You...you made my master angry!"
"Master?" Ning Helan didn't see any Taoist priests or humans in the snake cave just now. Who was the master it was talking about? The hooked snake? The hooked snake was actually the master of Linglan Temple?
The python turned around and wanted to run away, Ning Helan called it: "Stop."
The python turned around with a bitter face and said: "Brother, please let me go. I have already risked my life to bring you here. If my master comes out and sees me here, he will definitely skin me alive!"
