smuggler

Chapter 14
I don't know why I listened to his words, but when I turned around and saw the snakes in the snake cave started to swim uneasily, I felt a strong sense of unease.

I grabbed my aunt's arm and said in a deep voice, "Go, go quickly."

At this time, Wang Mazi, who was unconscious, suddenly screamed, his belly was stretched open instantly, and snakes spewed out one after another.

The snakes in the cave swarmed towards this side one after another, and the surrounding villagers shouted one after another, and they were in a mess for a while.

Before I could take two steps, I suddenly slipped and fell to the ground. In an instant, several slippery and sticky snakes rushed out.

The icy snake wrapped me around layer by layer, I didn't have time to scream, I just felt the world spinning for a while, a cold snort came from my ear, and the red light of the snake bracelet on my wrist flashed.

The entangled snakes were like getting an electric shock, and they retreated from the body to the woods at once.

"Go back to the village first." Chu Yuan's anxious voice came from his mind again.

I hurriedly got up, picked up a dry branch by the way, and hit a few snakes that were rushing towards me with all my strength. The black snake made a weird cry, but the black snakes behind took the opportunity to rush up, as fast as lightning .

Seeing this, I quickly ran towards the path back to the village.

The crowd was chaotic just now, and after I fell, I was separated from my aunt, but at this time, I can't take care of so much, so I can only go back to the village first.

"Hurry up, those snakes are catching up." Chu Yuan's voice urged.

I went back to the village from the small path, and the woods on both sides of the road were rustling, and the bushes were trembling and parting to the two sides, as if countless snakes were snaking around in the dark night.

The speed of the snakes that caught up was too fast, just like arrows, several of them rushed out again, I thought it was too late to run.

But at this moment, the snake bracelet on the wrist seemed to come alive, the jet-black spirit snake connected from head to tail twisted, and the original amber snake eyes were faintly filled with blood.

"Fizz!"

The black snake was wrapped around the wrist, and the snake hissed as a warning to the several poisonous snakes that sprang out. The snakes that were chasing up seemed to be very frightened and did not dare to approach.

Chu Yuan's voice revealed a bit of weakness and rang in my ears: "Fighting with that centipede spirit consumed a lot of my vitality, and my soul is too weak now, you go directly to that old Taoist priest .”

"it is good!"

Without thinking too much, I entered the village and headed directly towards Zhang Xian's house.

Zhang Xianren lives on the hillside next to the village. The door of his house is wide open. From a distance, I can see Zhang Xianren lying sprawled on a wicker chair in the yard, eating chicken legs.

"Daozhang Zhang." I called out hastily.

Zhang Xianren sat up from the chair when he heard the sound, and glanced behind me, his face changed so much that the chicken leg in his hand fell out of fear.

"Be good at me, you mess with bears!"

Zhang Xianren gave a jolt, jumped up from the rattan chair, his two calves seemed to be equipped with motors, turned around and ran into the house in a flash.

Just as I was about to step into the courtyard gate, Zhang Xianren came out again grabbing a black cloth bag, and said solemnly to me, "Don't move!"

He scolded, and I didn't dare to move immediately.

Zhang Xianren came up, grabbed two handfuls of rice from the black cloth bag, beat me, and cursed out of place: "Master Ye, you stabbed the snake's nest, why are there so many snakes following you? "

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Zhang Xianren slapped me with rice on my head and face, and I suddenly felt a lot warmer, and I didn't have the cold hands and feet just now.

I followed his eyes and looked back, only to see rice spilled all over the floor.

But in the middle of the rice, there were a few winding thin lines swimming out from my heel, as if something in me was swimming back along the rice quickly.

"Wang Mazi is dead." I said straight to the point.

"You dare to join in the fun with the smell of snakes. You are really dancing Yangko on the edge of a cliff. I think your good days are coming to an end."

Zhang Xianren curled his lips and said, "Let's talk first."

After entering Zhang Xianren's main room, he turned around and fiddled, and spilled something at the gate of the courtyard.

After doing all this, he said to me after entering the house, "You said Wang Mazi is dead?"

I was still a little nervous, so I nodded to Zhang Xianren, and then told all the recent events, including the strange things in the village and Shu Erniang.

After hearing Zhang Xianren frowned, I didn't speak for a long time, and I was also quite nervous.

Just as he was about to speak, Zhang Xianren waved his hand and said, "I will pay attention to the affairs in the village."

"Thank you Taoist Zhang."

Although Zhang Xianren's words always give people a feeling of being out of line, but Chu Yuan asked me to come to him, I am sure he is a bit wise.

After hearing what he said, I was slightly relieved.

On the other hand, Zhang Xianren still stared at me with a dignified expression, and asked after a while: "Let's not talk about the affairs of the village, now you can talk about your own affairs."

I pointed to myself, with a surprised expression on my face: "My own business?"

Zhang Xianren said: "The energy in your body is impure, and the smell of snakes is very strong. The night before yesterday... did that snake appear?"

Zhang Xianren's face gives people a sense of disrespect for old people, and sometimes his speech is unreasonable, but he is worthy of being a well-known divine man from all over the world, and he can see so many things at a glance.

He is the only one who knows about Chu Yuan now, and it is also because he is a Taoist priest. I have some trust in him, and it is impossible for me to hide my small thoughts from his eyes.

After thinking about it, I simply told the whole story of the future.

After hearing this, Immortal Zhang pondered for a while, gave me a strange look, and said, "I use your qi and blood magic circle, and it doesn't affect him at all. It seems that his Taoism is really not shallow."

Zhang Xianren continued: "The black snake is still protecting you. You said he told you his name? It means that he is sincere and will not harm you. If you are in danger, you can ask him to save you."

After hearing these words, I didn't feel so nervous, but I also felt curious and wondered why Chu Yuan would help me.

Zhang Xianren seemed to have seen through what I was thinking, and said with a half-smile: "You are lucky, you swallowed the inner alchemy of that snake at the beginning, and now, after more than ten years, that inner alchemy has merged with you One body, now the fate of that snake is connected with you, and you will both prosper and lose together."

Zhang Xianren said with emotion: "Your grandma really made a good move."

Now I vaguely understand why my grandma made me drink the snake-repelling talisman water every day since I was a child, especially when I think of what Chu Yuan said.

Grandma's original intention may not be to destroy Chu Yuan, or she doesn't have that great ability.

With the help of the snake-repelling talisman, Chu Yuan's restraint has been imprisoning his soul in the inner alchemy. Grandma's real purpose is to buy enough time for the inner alchemy to become a part of my body.

And now that inner alchemy has become the common heart of me and Chu Yuan, no matter if he dies or I die, neither of us will exist anymore.

Grandma has been in awe of the snake god for more than ten years, but this awe is based on the premise that I am alive.
