Chapter 309 The White Python Comes Out of the Water
"Yes, miss!"
When they saw Miss Lianyi behind them, they both stopped, but their eyes were still looking at the camp opposite.
At this time, the guards on Lianyi's side all came out after hearing the noise, including Wen Lu and her daughter. The screams on the other side were really too miserable.
I saw countless small white snakes emerging from the waterfall. They swam into the opposite camp and bit people they saw. Some even penetrated into the bodies of the escorts along their nostrils and mouths. These people immediately fell to the ground. I couldn't stand it and started wailing.
One-eye was planning to take people to the waterfall to do bad things, so he did not sleep to death. At this time, he was holding the knife in his hand and swung it left and right, killing all the snakes that came towards him.
But there were too many white snakes. Seeing that something was wrong, he immediately turned around and got into the bamboo forest, running wildly without caring about the other escorts in the escort agency.
When the living bodyguard saw that all the bodyguards had run away, he also gave up the goods he was guarding and ran away with One Eye, followed by a group of white snakes chasing after him, which made people's scalp numb.
Witnessing all this, the Wu family guards held the swords in their hands vigilantly, fearing that these little white snakes would turn around and deal with them again.
Liang Chen comforted Xiao Hui in his arms. He finally understood why Xiao Hui started to warn him as soon as he arrived. It turned out to be because Xiao Hui's natural enemy appeared.
After everyone in the opposite camp was exhausted, the snakes swam back into the water.
"Miss, why didn't they attack us?"
Liang Chen asked softly.
The two families were only separated by a waterfall, so there was no reason to attack the group of escorts instead of attacking them.
"Xiao Hui warned you, so I set up formations around the camp."
Ripple said quietly.
"Miss, what should we do now?"
"Pack your things and set off immediately. There is only an hour before dawn. Let's go to the next city to report to the officials and tell everyone not to touch the things on the opposite side."
"yes!"
Everyone agreed.
Even if the lady didn't give orders, they didn't want to stay here anymore. After seeing the white snake that looked like a crucian carp crossing the river, they felt a little numb. Although they were protected by the lady's formation, they still felt it was safer to leave.
In less than half an hour, everyone was packed up, and the group immediately set out on the road under the moonlight. Wenlu stayed at the end, eliminating all traces of their camping.
Ripple waved his hand one last time, took back the spirit essence of his formation, swept his tail clean, and headed straight for the next city.
During this journey, the group did not make any stops, and finally arrived at Huafeng City at noon that day.
After paying the city entry fee, Liang Chen immediately stepped forward and asked the soldier guarding the gate:
"Sir, our group came to Huafeng City from Shuangqi Town. We encountered a murder case on the way. Where can we report it to the official?"
"Homicide? Where? How many people are there?"
The soldier guarding the gate was still very responsible and asked immediately.
"Next to a waterfall and bamboo forest four hours away from Huafeng City, we were sleepy and ready to camp there for the night. We started on our way after dawn today, only to find people dead all over the place beside the bamboo forest, as well as several vehicles. There were boxes stacked on the car, and the villain looked like a team of darts.
Then I reported back to my master. The master was so frightened at the time that he was afraid that there were still bad guys around, so he sent us on our way all night. When we got here, we were relieved and sent the younger one to report to the official. "
Chu Liangchen was very smooth-talking and immediately explained the cause and effect clearly.
When the soldiers saw the team of less than twenty people, they understood why they were traveling all night, so they asked a soldier to take Liang Chen to the Yamen to report the crime.
Lianyi and the others booked a small inn to rest and wait for news about Liang Chen.
After Minmin washed up and changed her clothes, she came to replace Luo Ying and Luo Huai. She asked specifically:
"Miss, why do you need to report to the official?"
"The escort chief has met your mother and daughter. What if he falsely accuses us of intercepting their escort?"
"But...we have been away for so long, does he dare to go back?"
"If the bodyguard survived, he would definitely not dare to go back in the middle of the night, but he would definitely go back during the day to deal with the aftermath. I asked Liang Chen to tell the government officials that the incident happened before we slept in the open. They rushed over now, just in time to meet us. A living escort."
Ripple has calculated the time.
"Minmin knows it, but the lady is considerate."
The matter was very close to what Lianyi had guessed. One Eye led the two bodyguards to avoid White Snake's pursuit and hid until the sun was high and the sun was at its strongest before returning to the camp.
When they got there, they found that all the escorts they were traveling with were dead. Most of them died of poisoning. The inner abdomen of the corpses was basically hollowed out. They didn't dare to get close, but the goods they escorted were still there.
Duyan became greedy. He discussed it with his two deputies and decided to hide the goods. Then they said that they had encountered an ambush, and they had already figured out who would take the blame, and they just happened to blame the Wen family's mother and daughter.
The owner who hired the mother and daughter would definitely not use these two troublemakers again. Besides, he caught a glimpse of the owner and it was a young lady. As long as they went to cause trouble a few more times, they might get unexpected gains.
Duyan's plan was supported by two of his men, and they immediately took action. As a result, before the frightened horse could be retrieved, a group of government servants arrived.
One-Eye's plan failed, and he was cursing the nosy person in his mind when suddenly a white python as thick as a bucket hung down from the top of the waterfall. Without anyone being prepared, it swallowed One-Eye in one bite.
"ah!!!"
The two one-eyed servants were so frightened that they peed their pants and ran towards the Yamen guards. The Yamen guards were so frightened that they almost left their bodies. Unexpectedly, they were forced to watch a murder scene. Watched the bloody scene of a giant python swallowing a human.
"Bold monster, take my sword!"
Wuyou jumped up at this time, swung his mahogany sword, and struck the white python on the head. Unfortunately, the effect was average. The white python shook its head, spit out the scarlet snake core, and flicked its tail straight down. Entering the waterfall, he flicked his tail and swept Wuyou away.
When Fengyu saw that his master was defeated, he immediately shouted at those people:
"Run away! My master can't hold on for long!"
Then Fengyu rummaged through his backpack and found a pack of realgar powder wrapped in kraft paper. Seizing the opportunity, he threw it directly to the master:
"Master, this is realgar powder!"
Wuyou had already turned over and stood up. He gritted his teeth and endured the pain to catch the realgar powder. He inserted the peach wood sword back behind his back, jumped to the top of the bamboo, and then made a secret gesture and scattered the entire packet of realgar powder.
The white python was covered in realgar powder blown by the wind. It twisted its body in discomfort, then retreated directly into the waterfall, rolling its body, as if it was washing away the realgar powder with the help of the water from the waterfall.
Wuyou immediately jumped down, pulled Fengyu and ran away, leaving the white python's territory as quickly as possible.
After the gate of Huafeng City opened the next day, Wuyou and Fengyu stood in front of the inn where Lianyi and the others rented.
Babies! See you tomorrow~
