Versatile Mage: Starting Contract Groudon

Chapter 70: Meeting the Black Snake and Asking for Snake Venom
…………

When Zhao Tingxi was staring at the clear lake water beside him, he vaguely felt that there was a hazy and huge body coiled in the depths of the lake. It was right below the boat. The boat was as small as a leaf floating, and the body below could not be fully revealed at all. It was just the tip of the iceberg.

The water was getting darker and deeper, and in the darkness, a snake's face was approaching. If he hadn't been hanging out with Groudon and Kyogre for a long time, he would have been scared to death by now.

"Is it right down there?" Zhao Tingxi looked at Tang Yue and asked.

"Yes."

Zhao Tingxi nodded and said nothing more. In this case, the sight that just glanced at him should have come from the black snake below.

The boat rowed all the way to the island in the middle of the lake.

The island in the middle of the lake shows a forbidden sign as a whole, a circle with a cross inside, and the rest is filled with water.

As soon as the boat reached the shore, Zhao Tingxi saw a man in green clothes guarding there. The man's eyes lit up immediately when he saw Tang Yue and Mo Fan, but when he saw Zhao Tingxi, his brows frowned.

"Tang Yue, we don't allow outsiders to come in here." said the man in green clothes.

"Dasheng, he is not an outsider." Tang Yue let Zhao Tingxi go ashore, and tied the boat beside him: "He came to beg, and Xuanshe also agreed to meet him."

"Since he is the person the Snake God wants to see, he is not an outsider." Dasheng suddenly laughed foolishly, and all his unfriendly attitude towards Zhao Tingxi was immediately eliminated.

After tying up the boat, Tang Yue said to Zhao Tingxi, "Xiao Zhao, come with me."

"it is good!"

Zhao Tingxi followed Tang Yue across the lake and arrived at the courtyard house in the center of the cross of the lake. The green tiles and red pillars were the most representative of the Jiangnan style.

There were some antiques on display in the courtyard house. Zhao Tingxi followed Tang Yue inside and found that not only were there antiques on the table, but there were also murals carved on the walls that passed down ancient legends...

There are people on the murals, as well as demonic figures that look vaguely simulated.

There are villages, water, and some strange-looking creatures surrounding them, maintaining a state of fleeing.

The village was surrounded by an ambiguous monster pattern. If you didn't look carefully at the head and tail of the thing covering the village, you would think it was the mud wall of the village... In fact, it was a snake!

The snake coils into a ring, and the village is inside the ring.

There are many monsters around, and they are fleeing, indicating that they are afraid of this village.

In fact, what these monsters fear is not the village, but the snake surrounding the village!

The entire ancient picture looks like a simple drawing. If you haven't heard the relevant stories, you wouldn't think that the circle of things is a huge snake that can wrap the village inside.

"Are these murals depicting the deeds of the black snake protecting you in the past?" Zhao Tingxi knew what was depicted on them after just one look.

"Well, so, we call it God. This island in the middle of the lake actually also symbolizes this ancient event." Tang Yue said.

"I see!"

"It used to guard the village, but that was thousands of years ago. Now it guards a city, and that city is Xihang." Tang Yue continued.

"I admire you!" Zhao Tingxi admired it from the bottom of his heart: "A few days ago, the people of Xihang wanted to execute it, but I didn't expect it to put aside the past and protect these people. If it were me, I would definitely not be able to do it."

"So, why is he called the guardian god?" Tang Yue said with a smile. Soon, under Tang Yue's guidance, Zhao Tingxi saw the totem black snake in the pool in the lake.

"Gulu gulu gulu~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

The water surface began to roll, and from the intensity of the rolling, we could tell that the thing that surfaced must be huge.

Sure enough, beneath the silver lake illuminated by the moonlight, a shocking black shadow was slowly emerging. Zhao Tingxi couldn't believe that such a small area of ​​water could hide the body of the skyscraper snake, which was as big as a skyscraper.

Could it be that there is also space compression inside the Three Pools Mirroring the Moon, making it a place with a different world?
The black shadow became clearer and clearer, and it had broken through the water.

The huge snake head finally appeared, and the smooth snake body seemed to sparkle in the moonlight...

When Tang Yue saw that the Totem Black Snake had appeared, her face was full of smiles, without any fear at all. She even reached out her hand to touch the Totem Black Snake's head.

The head of the totem black snake is at least as big as a 100-square-meter house. Its flat nostrils are like a small cave to humans, not to mention its wide snake mouth. Its long snake tongue is enough to scare people to death!

"Xuanshe, he is the person you want to see."

"Teacher Tang Yue, I want to talk to Senior Xuanshe alone. If it's convenient, can you step aside for a while?"

Tang Yue frowned slightly: "Can you communicate with the black snake?"

"OK."

"Okay, then I'll leave first." After saying that, Tang Yue left, leaving the time to Zhao Tingxi and Xuan She.

"Is that the person you are talking about, Ba Xia?" The black snake said to Zhao Tingxi while spitting out its tongue.

Zhao Tingxi nodded: "Yes."

"But I can't sense even a little bit of Ba Xia's aura on you." The totem black snake's head was directly close to Zhao Tingxi, and there was no change in the tone of his voice.

Zhao Tingxi said calmly: "If I hadn't moved out to Baxia, I don't think I would have been able to see you, so I have to apologize to you first. I deceived you."

Zhao Tingxi apologized sincerely.

Feeling Zhao Tingxi's sincerity, the Totem Black Snake retracted its head and said, "No need to apologize. Since you know the relationship between Baxia and me, you should have seen Baxia, right? How is it now?"

Black Snake was not angry, and Zhao Tingxi was slightly relieved. After all, he still needed Black Snake's help. "I saw Baxia in Sakura Country last time. He looks pretty good now, but he is still looking for a suitable totem guardian. It seems that he has been looking for a long time."

"That's good." The Totem Black Snake nodded slightly. Now that it knew that Ba Xia was in good condition, it felt relieved.

Although it and Ba Xia don't get along well, they are brothers after all and will care about each other.

"Tell me, what do you want from me?"

"I want you to give me some snake venom." Zhao Tingxi said, "You are the ancestor of snakes and a master of poison. I am a poison mage, and I want to use the snake venom from you for my own benefit."

"You want some snake venom?" The pupils of the Totem Black Snake shrank slightly. "My snake venom is not something that ordinary poison mages can withstand. If you want my snake venom, I'll see if you are qualified!"
