The moment the memory came into his mind, Jiuxi shook his head desperately due to the discomfort. The white shadow in his mind gradually became clearer. There was a scholar's air between his eyebrows. He looked a little weak, but his back was so stubborn and strong.
That was after the Jing family fell into decline. She dismissed the servants in the house, took her second brother's ashes, and left Kyoto alone under the bright moonlight.
Gradually, a light rain began to fall, gradually getting heavier. The carriage she hired was also stuck in the mud. The curtain of the carriage was drawn open. She hugged the urn tightly and asked, "What's going on?"
The boy was already soaked by the rain and his speech was unclear. I could only vaguely hear that the wheels of the cart were stuck in the mud, and because of the rain, the mud was also sticky.
Jing Xiaosan placed the urn on the carriage and wrapped it carefully with clothes, then jumped off the carriage nimbly and pushed the carriage with the servant. At this time, thunder rumbled in the sky and lightning flashed across the sky like a silver snake, crackling and happening to fall on a tree not far away. The tree was instantly on fire by the lightning, and there was a charred snake in it... Another triangular venomous snake swam towards them hurriedly. Lightning fell around the triangular venomous snake from time to time, but the venomous snake was not afraid at all and still insisted on its own direction.
Those snake eyes were so sinister and creepy.
The servant was so frightened that he almost wet his pants and shouted, "Girl, hurry up and leave! There are monsters in this forest!"
She looked at the swirling poisonous snake and thought about climbing into the carriage to take out her second brother's ashes. However, when she got into the carriage and got the urn, the servant had already run away. The poisonous snake was clinging to the carriage, looking at her viciously.
Despite this, she still held the urn tightly. Strangely enough, when the poisonous snake climbed onto the carriage, the lightning did not fall for a long time. The man and the snake confronted each other like this, and time passed very slowly. When she looked at the poisonous snake, she felt like a thorn in her back, and her whole body seemed to be soaked in water, and she could not use any strength at all.
She touched a dagger and tore open the window paper without hesitation. Just as she was about to jump out of the window and escape with the urn, she heard the hissing sound of the venomous snake, as if warning her. She looked back and saw the venomous snake looking at her leisurely, but its eyes were full of threats.
It turns out that he wanted to use her to overcome the disaster.
She knew that if she left, the venomous snake would lose its life-saving charm, and snakes, such vengeful creatures, would definitely try to drag her into the water.
The rain gradually stopped and the thunder in the sky slowly faded away. It was a sunny day again. The poisonous snake looked at her with glee and opened its mouth, as if it wanted to eat her and have a good meal.
She freed one hand and tightly grasped the dagger. Her cold eyes were tinged with ruthlessness. If the poisonous snake dared to bite her, she would cut it into pieces even if she was poisoned to death.
The venomous snake seemed to have seen what she was thinking. It still held its head high, looking at her dangerously, just waiting for an opportunity to bite her to death.
Her back was pressed tightly against the back wall of the carriage. She had already lost her strength due to weakness and was relying entirely on brute force to support herself. Time passed slowly. She heard a whoosh sound and the venomous snake was nailed to the carriage. Its resentful eyes were still staring at her, but the dagger had pierced its heart.
The snake's tail kept hanging in the air, drifting along with the night wind.
Her eyelids grew heavier, until she could barely open them. In the last few breaths before she lost consciousness, she saw a slender hand lift the curtain and jokingly say, "So, there's this unlucky guy..."
