The group started from Lingqiu and passed through Shuozhou, Yizhou, Jinzhong, Jinyang and other places before heading to Zhongnan Mountain.
On this day, we entered Hedong County in Puzhou and stayed overnight in a ruined temple in the mountains and forests.
Although Xiang Nan and others have superior military strength, it will be difficult to deal with them unless the Five Jue troops come out or a large army is deployed. But after all, one more thing is worse than one less thing, so I try to avoid people when eating and staying.
Fortunately, Ma Yu, Jiangnan Seven Monsters, Yang Tiexin, Mu Nianci, etc. are all used to being in the world and suffering, so it is not difficult.
Only Bao Xiruo was slightly weaker. He had some headaches due to the fatigue of driving and horseback riding and the lack of acclimatization in the past few days.
Xiang Nan personally grabbed the medicine for her and Mu Nianci was stewing it for her.
Bao Xiruo liked this adopted daughter and future daughter-in-law very much.
It was agreed that after arriving at Zhongnan Mountain and establishing a foothold, they would hold a wedding for the two of them.
"Come on, Xiaobai, it's time to eat meat." At this moment, Xiang Nan fed the white wolf Wang said.
The White Wolf King's vitality is extremely tenacious. He was beaten half to death by Xiang Nan at one time, but after a few days of recuperation, his health has improved significantly, which really makes Xiang Nan admire him.
The White Wolf King took the pork and was eating it happily. Suddenly it stopped chewing, exposed its fangs, and roared in the distance.
Xiang Nan was stunned and immediately ran away, only to see two figures flashing past in the woods.
Xiang Nan was shocked, and when he chased after them, the two of them were gone.
…
Seeing this, Xiang Nan immediately returned to the ruined temple and informed everyone of the incident.
"Perhaps they are local bandits. Seeing that there are many people and horses in our group, they want to come and make plans." Zhu Cong analyzed, "Don't worry, with our strength, we will not be afraid of any copycat no matter how powerful it is."
"Hmph, come one and kill one, come two and kill a pair." Ke Zhen E also said with confidence.
Xiang Nan nodded when he saw this.
With the strength of these people, even if they encounter the Five Ultimates, they will be able to fight, and they will indeed not be in trouble.
However, he still secretly went to see Mei Chaofeng, hoping that she would help pay attention to what was going on around him. If you are in danger, try to come out and help.
During the recent period, Mei Chaofeng has been quietly following the team.
Although she is blind, she is good at hearing sounds and identifying locations, and is especially good at lightness skills. Xiang Nan and others rode horses, but she couldn't do it herself, but she didn't lag behind at all. The strength is evident.
"Don't worry, since I promised you, I won't break my promise." Mei Chaofeng said.
…
Xiang Nan then returned to the ruined temple to rest.
When he was sleeping in the latter half of the night, he suddenly felt a blast of hot air, which made Xiang Nan wake up suddenly, only to see the White Wolf King blowing air next to his ear.
"Xiao Bai, you're up late at night, why are you fooling around?" Xiang Nan couldn't help scolding, but he saw the White Wolf King looking into the distance, glaring angrily, showing his fangs, and kept roaring.
Xiang Nan suddenly felt something strange. He looked around and saw Guo Jing's little red horse neighing frequently, restless and restless, as if danger was coming.
Seeing this, Xiang Nan quickly used the Zixia magic skill and heard the strange sound of strings coming from the distance.
Xiang Nan quickly jumped over to take a look, and his scalp was numb with shock.
I saw tens of thousands of venomous snakes crawling on the ground, covering the mountains and plains, crawling towards the ancient temple.
Xiang Nan wasn't afraid of snakes at first, but now that he saw this scene, he couldn't help but get goosebumps.
He quickly ran back to warn, "The enemy is attacking, the enemy is attacking, everyone, get up!"
Everyone woke up immediately, "What happened?"
"Snakes, snakes, many, many snakes are crawling this way." Xiang Nan explained.
When everyone heard this, they were surprised and on guard.
The Seven Monsters of Jiangnan, Ma Yu, Xiang Nan, and Guo Jing stood in the first line, guarding Huang Rong, Mu Nianci, Bao Xiruo, Li Ping, Yang Tiexin, and others.
Doors, windows, beams, etc. were folded down and laid out in a circle, and then set on fire to prevent venomous snakes from sneaking in.
…
As soon as I was ready, I saw thousands of venomous snakes coming like a tide.
Seeing this scene, even Jiangnan Seven Monsters and Ma Yu turned pale, and Bao Xiruo was so frightened that he fainted.
"Why are there so many snakes?" Zhu Cong asked in surprise.
"Could someone be herding snakes?" Ke Zhen'e guessed, "But there can only be one or two hundred snakes at most. How come there are so many snakes?"
He has been in the world for a long time and has extensive knowledge. He knows that there are some strange people in the world who can tame venomous snakes and herd snakes like cattle and sheep. But there are only one or two hundred at most. I have never heard of anyone herding tens of thousands of them. After all, venomous snakes have little intelligence and can easily bite their owners.
As he spoke, the poisonous snakes were approaching. Although they were blocked by the flames, they were still fearless and walked toward the fire one after another.
Bah! Bah! Bah!
The venomous snakes made a noise when roasted by the fire and died soon, but the venomous snakes continued to crawl forward with the help of the corpses of the same kind.
Such a terrifying scene made everyone feel numb.
"What's going on? Why aren't these poisonous snakes afraid of fire?" Han Baoju said in shock.
"Look, there's someone." Xiang Nan pointed to the distance and saw several men in white clothes in the woods in the distance, holding a long pole and shouting and drinking, like driving cattle and sheep.
"He is really a snake herder, but how can he be so powerful?" Ma Yu asked in puzzlement, and then raised his voice and asked, "Ma Yu, Danyangzi, the poor Taoist Quanzhen master, whose friend came to visit late at night, please show up. At first sight~"
His energy was so strong that his voice was transmitted far away, enough for people in the distance to hear clearly.
"Hahahaha~" As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a large group of people walking from a distance.
Each of the five leaders had a distinct image. Although it was at night, Xiang Nan could still see clearly that they were Peng Lianhu, Sha Tongtian, Ouyang Ke and Master Lingzhi, the four heroes of the palace. The last one was Hou Tonghai who made up the numbers.
"How could it be you?!" Xiang Nan said in surprise, "How could you find us?"
I didn't expect that after such a careful plan, I would be chased by them in the end.
"Young prince, this Qin Jin is my territory, what troubles can you hide from me?" Peng Lianhu said with a smile.
Xiang Nan was stunned.
Peng Lianhu was the leader of thieves across the Qin, Jin, Yan and Zhao regions. He had so many minions that it was no exaggeration to call him the leader of the northern green forest.
And there are more than a dozen of them, and their goal is quite big. Sooner or later, they will attract people's attention.
"Brother Wanyan, if you don't do well as the young prince of the Jin Kingdom, why do you choose to wander around the world?" Ouyang Ke asked with a smile while waving his fan.
"The Sixth Prince is not my biological father. My biological father is Yang Tiexin." Xiang Nan waved his hands and said, "I am a citizen of the Song Dynasty, so how can I be the young prince of the Jin Kingdom again."
"That's such a pity." Ouyang Ke shook his head and said, "The young prince of the Jin Kingdom is so noble. He has everything you need, including fine clothes, fine food, wealth, and wealth. In the future, he may even be honored with great treasures and become the co-lord of the world, the most respected person in the world. What? Don’t you think it’s a pity that we are sleeping in the open and hiding our heads and tails?”
"Wealth and glory are like a dream, and gains and losses, honor and disgrace are nothing more than a mirror to the moon. Mr. Ouyang, there is no need to say more."
"Young prince, don't make the same mistake again and again. The prince has a destiny. As long as you are willing to take the princess back, he will still recognize you as his son." Ouyang Ke said, "Otherwise, you, your mother, and everyone here will only die. "
"Kill if you want, no need to say more." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "I, the Yang family, have been loyal for generations. How can I be greedy for life, afraid of death, and clinging to the powerful?"
"Well said, Kang'er!" Yang Tiexin was greatly moved when he heard this.
Everyone also secretly gave him a thumbs up and praised Xiang Nan for his integrity.
"In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless." Ouyang Ke said, and then ordered the snake slave to continue driving away the snakes. The poisonous snakes instantly attacked everyone like a tide.
