The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Chapter 987 Is the place we are going to a snake den?

"Mother, you must not bring my brother into the Shepan Ancient Road. If you can't wait for me and the Marquis to show up, you should take my brother and change his name and leave far away. Remember not to worry about him."

"I've made a note of it. Your brother and I will be waiting for you and the Marquis at the entrance of the Shepan Ancient Road."

This time, Sha Yueteng rode away without even looking back. Shang Xi shouted, "Wait for me. I'll go with you. I want to go find Cheng Feng and my son."

Zhao Shuyun said, "Madam Cheng, that is not a place you can go. Thank you for telling me where the Marquis is going. Shuyun will say goodbye here. I am afraid that my husband will break his promise. I am afraid that the child in my belly will not have the blessing of marrying into your Wan family."

"Mrs. Sha, what are you talking about?"

"Madam Cheng, I have lived here for eight years and have heard all kinds of rumors. Believe it or not, no one can get out of the Broken Road Forest, and few people have walked through the Shepan Ancient Road. My eldest son Sha Yueteng is eager to save his father, and I can't stop him. If he can't get out of the Shepan Ancient Road within five days, I will take my youngest son Sha Yuejin and all the servants to save my old Sha. Although the chances of winning are zero, I will try. No one in the Sha family can live in shame. But I broke my promise to my old Sha, and I can't hold my two sons in prison. Our Sha family will be extinct."

After saying this, Zhao Shuyun also got on her horse and left, still without looking back. No matter how Shang Xi called out from behind, no one responded.

The old housekeeper held Shang Xi's hand and said, "Madam, as long as the Marquis is here, the young master and the young master will be fine."

"'Old housekeeper, did you hear what Mrs. Sha said? There is no way back from that place. I have to find them back.'

"Young Madam, calm down. The Marquis will not take the Young Master and the Little Master with him in something that will risk their lives."

"Old housekeeper, please send more people to chase them back."

"Well, Madam, they have been gone for a whole day. Where can we chase them? Listen to me and go back to rest. They will be back in five or six days."

Shang Xi was supported back by Zhong Siyu and the old housekeeper. For the first time, she truly experienced what it meant to be unable to sleep or eat.

The people walking on the Shepan Ancient Trail have no idea how worried their families are about them.

Cheng Youning, who was on horseback, asked Qiao Rong, who was following closely beside him: "Qiao Rong, does your butt hurt?"

"It hurts, but my arms hurt the most."

"My arm hurts, and I can hardly lift it up."

Cheng Feng heard this and said, "You two are pulling the reins too tightly. Let the adults lead you."

Cheng Youning was very stubborn, "No, I can ride by myself. We will reach the forest in one day. I can definitely ride in by myself."

Wan Lianxing, who was in the front, shouted, "Cheng Feng, don't feel sorry for the two little ones. Don't even help them up when they fall down from exhaustion."

Cheng Youning was not angry at all. He even chuckled, whipped the horse's butt with the whip, and ran two steps to chase Wan Lianxing's horse. "Grandpa, I'm not so tired that I fall down easily. This is just riding a horse. It's a hundred times easier than my master training me. But grandpa, your arm is so badly injured. Doesn't it hurt to pull the reins?"

"Are you feeling sorry for little grandpa?"

"Ah."

At this time, the follower in front of him shouted, "Cheng Youning, come here."

"Oh, I'll be right there." Cheng Youning didn't dare to delay. He whipped the horse's butt twice and came to the side of the follower. "Master, what do you want to ask me?"

The attendant reached out and pulled Cheng Youning onto his horse's back. Cheng Youning said, "Master, I can ride a horse now. My limbs are strong now."

The follower rolled his eyes and said, "Your master's arm hurts, you pull the reins for me."

"Oh, I understand. Master, please sit down. I will ride on horseback with you."

Before Cheng Youning grabbed the reins, the follower kicked the horse in the belly, and the horse rushed out of the crowd, shouting: "Follower, the road is not easy to walk on, you are not allowed to play alone."

"We two, master and disciple, are not playing alone. We are just walking in front to serve as your vanguard."

Cheng Feng glanced at the snake on the tree and shouted, "Follower, there are too many snakes here. It's hard to tell which are poisonous and which are not. Bring my son back quickly."

"Do you think I am you? I can tell at a glance whether a snake is poisonous or not." The follower left with Cheng Youning without looking back.

Qiao Rong was so anxious, "Master, young master, please wait for me."

Cheng Youning and Qiao Rong were always protected in the middle of the team. When Cheng Youning reached the front, Qiao Rong was still in the middle of the team getting used to his arms and legs. It was not easy for Qiao Rong to catch up with Cheng Youning. Seeing Qiao Rong leaning forward to rush forward, Cheng Feng stopped him: "Don't join in the fun. Both the master and the apprentice are not normal."

Cheng Feng said this, but he kicked the horse's belly unconsciously and came to the side of Wan Lianxing in front: "Uncle, there are so many snakes on this tree."

As he spoke, Wan Lianxing drew out his knife and cut off a snake that jumped towards him from a tree. "Feng'er, this is called the Snake Pangu Road. There is no way to estimate how many snakes there are here. You must be alert and don't get bit by a snake."

"Snake Pan Ancient Road, is it that there are snakes all along the road?"

"That's about right. The further we go in, the more snakes there are."

"How does my uncle know so much?"

"This Fengying is my territory, so naturally I know everything."

Cheng Feng said: "Uncle, you haven't been here before, have you?"

"First time here."

"Then why aren't you nervous when you see so many snakes? I remember you were bitten by a poisonous snake once when we went to Hu Er's house. Isn't it said that once bitten by a snake, one will be afraid of ropes for ten years? Why aren't you afraid?"

"Are you afraid?"

"There are so many snakes coiled on this tree, it's obviously not normal. My scalp has been numb for a long time. Is the place we are going to a snake den?"

"You'll find out once you enter the woods."

Cheng Feng had a feeling that his uncle was hiding something from him. This journey was extremely difficult. Although their people did not suffer any casualties, five horses were killed by poisonous snakes. Only then did Cheng Feng understand why each of them had two horses. His uncle knew in advance that their horses would be damaged on this ancient snake road. Thinking of this, Cheng Feng felt that Wan Lianxing was hiding something from him.

Moreover, this was the second day of his journey, and the road was much more dangerous than the first day. They did not have any rest on the way, and the time they really rested was already night. There were only two shifts on guard that night, and each shift had twenty people. These twenty people did not dare to relax their vigilance at all. Needless to say, the danger was there. The difference from the previous night was that what attacked them were not pythons, but all kinds of snakes, half of which were poisonous snakes.
