"What did you say?"
Hearing what Chang Xiaoqing said, Lin Mao couldn't help being surprised, and then he hurried forward to Chang Xiaoqing's side, stood on the kang and went to He Yunyue and the three of them to look.
The corpses of the three people were still warm, their faces were calm and rosy, and there were even two blushes on the cheekbones. They looked like people who were sleeping soundly. It is no longer alive.
Although Lin Mao knew in his heart that Chang Xiaoqing was definitely not the kind of person who likes to play around, laugh and deceive others, but he couldn't help but reach out and touch the sides of He Yunyue's and Zhou Batou's necks.
The skin of these two people still has the warmth of a living person, but the blood vessels and chest are silent, without the slightest beating. If you look closely at the faces that seem to be peaceful and sleeping, you will find that apart from the two unnatural blushes , the faces of these three people were faintly gray.Lin Mao's heart trembled, and he couldn't help stretching out his hand to pull He Yunyue's arm, and the man rolled to the side like a torn sack, facing the sky on his back, obviously dead beyond death.
"how so……"
Lin Mao's face was pale, and he couldn't help muttering.
You know, that He Yunyue was still talking to him not long ago, but after a while, her soul flew to the west... These three people are not ordinary people, but people with martial arts, why are they so silent Died so close?What's more, Lin Mao caressed their corpses. These people still had body temperature and their limbs were not stiff. It was obvious that they died just a moment ago.
Lin Mao clearly remembered that not long ago when Chang Xiaoqing piled the three of them on the kang, he had helped them. At that time, although the three of them had poor blood flow, they were still alive!
That is to say, in the moment just now, someone thought of a way to kill three people with martial arts silently beside Chang Xiaoqing and Lin Mao——
"laugh--"
On the table of the Eight Immortals, the bean-sized candle was burning, and because the lamp oil was not good, the flame was trembling, and black smoke would come out from time to time.The light was dim, and the shadows of the people reflected couldn't help shaking, showing an indescribable sense of terror.
Lin Mao and Chang Xiaoqing looked at each other in the dim light of the fire, but neither spoke.There was silence in the room, even Yao Xiaohua was so frightened that she stopped sobbing, knowing that there were really three dead bodies piled up there, Xiaohua huddled at the foot of the kang and her whole body was stiff, looking like He didn't even have the strength to roll off the kang.
Who on earth killed He Yunyue and the other three here? !
This question circled crazily in Lin Mao's mind.At the very beginning, he thought that maybe Chang Xiaoqing used improper force before, and the small stone hit the three people's dead spots before they died, but it disappeared in a short time these days--the world probably doesn't He knew Chang Xiaoqing well, but Lin Mao knew his skills like the back of his hand. Speaking of kung fu, although Chang Xiaoqing was young, he already had the skills of a master. How could he make such a low-level mistake in this kind of place.
But in this way, the death of the three people is really hard to explain: just because Chang Xiaoqing's martial arts is extremely high, if someone wants to sneak into this room to assassinate the three of them, it is absolutely impossible for Chang Xiaoqing to be so unaware.
Thinking of this, Lin Mao couldn't help holding up the oil lamp in front of the three corpses, and looked at them carefully again.
And just looking at it like this, Lin Mao suddenly noticed the clue: the face of the corpse seemed to become more rosy at this moment, and gradually, gradually, the corners of the mouths of the three people were slowly turning upwards, so that As for the three corpses, there was a strange expression on their faces that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.
【Wait, this situation...】
Lin Mao's eyes were fixed, and there seemed to be a similar situation in his vague memory...
And at this moment, Bai Sanniang's body moved slightly.
"rustle……"
It was just a slight movement of cloth rubbing against each other, but in the room at this moment, it sounded like thunder.
"Master—"
Chang Xiaoqing rushed forward, hugged Lin Mao by the waist, and then swept straight back——
But Bai Sanniang's body was lying face up to the sky before, but at this moment, a smiling head shook slowly, and then again.
"Shasha... Shasha..."
The clothes on the dead body made a sound in her movement.
The scene in front of him was terrifying, Lin Mao shook his hands, and the oil lamp in his palm almost went out.
I saw the flame flicker, the light suddenly dimmed, and the rustling sound at the corpse became louder.Lin Mao's heart shrank extremely tightly, and cold sweat broke out faintly on his forehead. There seemed to be a faint idea in his mind, but when he thought about it carefully, he was clearly confused.
"Shh-"
The sound of a sharp weapon breaking through the air suddenly sounded.
Lin Mao felt a strong wind passing by his cheek, and he only had time to catch a black shadow out of the corner of his eye. Then he heard a muffled sound of "噗嗤", and looked at where the black shadow went, only to find that it was a short gun. sword.
It was the short sword that was placed on the table of the Eight Immortals before, it should be owned by one of the people on Wednesday, Crane and Bai, the short sword was sharp, and when it was thrown on the kang, most of the sword fell into the soil in an instant In the Kang.
Lin Mao took a closer look, only to find that there was a finger-thin earth-colored snake nailed to the dagger.
It turned out that the light movement of the corpse before was not a corpse change, but that the snake was slowly poking out from behind Bai Sanniang, and the corpse was still soft, being surrounded by the snake's body, it naturally turned its head , but Lin Mao and the others were terrified.
The little snake was born with an unattractive appearance, the scales all over its body were dull and dull, hidden on the same dusty earth kang, it was really a whole body, and it was completely undetectable.If ordinary people saw it, they would probably think it was a common cauliflower snake in the countryside, but Lin Mao went up to take a closer look, only to see that there was a pair of green and green snakes under the earthy scales of the little snake. Huge eyes, a snake's head is a sharp triangle like the arrows used by soldiers, and there is a pearl-sized green scale in the middle of the forehead, which also faintly glows. At first glance, it seems that the snake has three eyes.Now the snake has been firmly nailed to death by the dagger that Chang Xiaoqing threw before, the snake's neck and head cannot move, but even so, the second half of the snake is still wobbling , appears to be full of life.
Lin Mao only took one look at the snake, and his heart suddenly became clear——
"This, this is actually a soul-eating snake..."
After recognizing the snake, Lin Mao's mind became clear about the cause of He Yunyue's death.
This soul-eating snake was originally an ordinary poisonous snake in Yufeng Mountain. However, when Xiaoyaozi was in charge of Wangyou Valley decades ago, he raised all kinds of birds, animals, flowers, birds, insects and fish to test poison and refine medicine.Among them was a nest of ordinary earth snakes that had green poisonous scales on their foreheads after eating the Blindly Chasing Soul and Destroying Life Pill refined by Xiaoyaozi. And the body of the dead person will not rot or become stiff within ten days, his face is full of smiles, and his face is flushed, it is really terrifying.But this kind of snake is still very inconspicuous, its actions are even more silent, and its killing is even more invisible. Therefore, this kind of earth snake that has eaten the elixir is called the soul-eating snake by the people in Wangyou Valley.
That nest of snakes should have been taken care of. Unexpectedly, there would be civil turmoil in Wangyou Valley, and those beasts that had swallowed all kinds of poisons or elixir would scatter into the mountains, and no one would think of the nest of soul-eating snakes.
Now that Lin Mao suddenly saw the old poison, it took him a long time to remember it.
"It's so strange. This kind of snake can't survive without a specific medicine point. I haven't seen them in the past few decades, but why do they appear here now..."
But after recognizing the soul-eating snake, Lin Mao's spirit became more and more tense.
After he explained the origin of the Soul Erosion Snake to Chang Xiaoqing and Yao Xiaohua who was too frightened to make a sound, he couldn't help murmuring again.
That Chang Xiaoqing also had a stern expression, obviously aware of the difficulty of this matter.
How could there be such a coincidence in this world, he and his master sneaked into the room where He Yunyue and others were, and there was a soul-eating snake that should have been extinct many years ago hidden in this room, and this snake was still quietly Killing all three of He Yunyue to death without making a sound?
"Master, you shouldn't stay here for long—"
Chang Xiaoqing said softly, reached out and pulled out the dagger, cut off the head of the soul-eating snake, picked it with the tip of the sword, and threw it into the tiger in the corner of the room.Even if the soul-eating snake was beheaded, its activity remained undiminished, only the tinkling and clanging of the pottery tiger's body could be heard, which made the three people in the room a little restless.
"Yes, we should leave as soon as possible."
Lin Mao nodded slightly and said.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a very sharp and shrill scream from outside the window.
"Ahhhhhh—help——"
Starting with this scream, from the village to the village, there were violent or sharp screams from Sanlizhuang.Then, there was a copper whistle that resounded through the sky... This is the police whistle used in the sect to warn.
"Help me..."
"snake……"
"Damn, poisonous, poisonous snake..."
……
Without waiting for Lin Mao's order, Chang Xiaoqing ran out of the room with Lin Mao in his arms, stepped on the pile of firewood and hid by the courtyard wall or something to look out.
The two of them originally wanted to find out what happened outside the house, but just looking at it like this, both of them felt cold in their backs, and goose bumps appeared all over their bodies.
Snakes, snakes everywhere.
Black snakes, gray snakes, blue snakes, red snakes... poisonous ones, non-poisonous ones... giant snakes as thick as beams, small snakes as thin as chopsticks...
Snakes crawled out of fluffy snow, dropped from bare branches, arched out of thatch hedges...
It seemed that all of a sudden, the entire Sanlizhuang was supported by an invisible giant hand, and then placed in the cave of ten thousand snakes.
The mysterious casual cultivators and sect disciples, who still looked glamorous and bright in the daytime, ran out of the huts in disarray, even naked. Their white bodies were covered with a layer of blue light under the cover of snow. They were all entangled with poisonous snakes of various colors. Some of the snakes just bound them tighter and tighter, while others had already pierced their fangs directly into their skin.
Some people were running, but because of the sudden constriction of the snake body in the throat, their faces were swollen, and they could only scratch their necks with their hands, making hoo hoo noises, and then fell to the ground.
Others were bitten by a poisonous snake, and while they were running wildly calling for help, their eyes, nose, ears, and mouths spurted blood, and the blood completely stained their path red, and then they heard the cries stop abruptly. , the man fell limply to the ground with a slap, and his skin was instantly poisoned into a mass of bloody mud.
……
Lin Mao has lived for decades, but he has never seen such a terrifying scene.
He looked at the place where he was again, only to find that the small courtyard at the head of the village was built solidly after all, the wriggling poisonous snakes were only entangled in groups outside the courtyard wall, but there was a long road at the courtyard gate. There is a long gap, and for some reason, those snakes just hover outside and don't come in.
But if you continue to stay here, there is no guarantee that those snakes will invade the courtyard. At that time, it will be impossible to guard against, and you will not be able to escape even if you want to.
Lin Mao made a decisive decision and asked Chang Xiaoqing to take him back to the room, and then rushed directly to the pottery tiger in the corner where there was still a soft sound.
"Master?"
Chang Xiaoqing didn't understand, and couldn't help asking.
Lin Mao frowned and held the tiger cub that gave off a faint stench in his hand, and turned to look at Chang Xiaoqing: "The soul-eating snake is the most poisonous snake, and those snakes before are probably because there is a soul-eating snake here." Because of this, I dare not come in, and now we have to take it with us when we are leaving."
Hearing what Chang Xiaoqing said, Lin Mao couldn't help being surprised, and then he hurried forward to Chang Xiaoqing's side, stood on the kang and went to He Yunyue and the three of them to look.
The corpses of the three people were still warm, their faces were calm and rosy, and there were even two blushes on the cheekbones. They looked like people who were sleeping soundly. It is no longer alive.

Lin Mao's face was pale, and he couldn't help muttering.
