Chapter Forty-Three: The Serpent
[A Squ Pu Si Snake?] Guo Xiang had never heard of this kind of snake.
Li Liuyan replied," This type of poisonous snake has a golden glow on its body and horns on its head. It looks very strange and walks like the wind. It's extremely difficult to catch. There aren't many of them left in the world now." After eating the gallbladder of this snake, one's internal strength would increase greatly, and it would be equivalent to many days of cultivation.]
Li Liu Yan brought the three girls out to look for the Bodhi Qu Snake, but after searching for a long time, they didn't find a single one. Li Liu Yan was a little depressed,[Could it be that this snake is extinct?]]
Suddenly, a rustling sound came from the grass in front of them. A giant python was swimming towards the four of them.
The snake was over thirty feet long and its body was the size of a bowl. Its entire body was covered in golden scales and there was a triangular piece of meat on its forehead. From the looks of it, it should be the Qu Pu Si Snake. The snake seemed to have come out to look for food. It walked in front of the four of them and opened its bloody mouth to provoke them.
Although the three women were martial artists, they were still afraid of the python. They couldn't help but stand behind Li Liuyan and hold her clothes tightly.
Li Liuyan had never seen such a big snake before, and she was also afraid and nervous. Seeing the three women hiding behind it, she couldn't help but feel heroic. Women were naturally afraid of these ugly animals, but as a man, how could she back down? She shouted,[Don't be afraid. Step back and let me do it.]] He raised the heavy sword in his hand and pointed it at the python.
When the python saw the four of them standing together, it was still hesitant. It saw that the three women had retreated, leaving Li Liuyan alone in front of it. It suddenly rushed up.
As quiet as a virgin and as agile as a rabbit, the giant python was indeed worthy of being called a high snake in the martial arts world. It moved like the wind and flew directly in front of Li Liuyan like a spring.
Li Liuyan pointed her heavy sword at the python, her heart thumping. There were many kinds of animals in nature. Some were cute, some were docile, some were cunning, some were strong, and some were disgusting. However, the snake in front of him had all the bad attributes. Li Liuyan was not afraid of it even though she had a powerful cultivation technique, but looking at the giant python, she still felt a little scared.[I'll take two more deep breaths before I rush up and fight it. In ancient times, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty killed the white python and conquered the world. Today, for the sake of internal energy…]
Just as she was lost in her thoughts, a green shadow flashed and the python was already in front of her face. Li Liuyan could clearly see the poisonous fangs in the python's mouth.
The three women cried out in unison, but Li Liu Yan couldn't just die like that. She tilted her head slightly to the left and felt a chill in her ear. The python had brushed past her neck and flew behind her. Li Liuyan hurriedly jumped up. Just as her feet left the ground, she felt her body tighten as she was tightly bound by the python.
Seeing that it had caught its prey, the python opened its mouth without hesitation and was about to swallow it.
Just now, Li Liu Yan had been holding her sword and pointing it at the python. Her posture hadn't changed even when she was entangled by the python. Although Li Liu Yan's body was entangled, her arm could still move. Seeing the python coming at her, she waved her hand and the python's head and body were separated.
* Puff * A fishy and smelly liquid sprayed all over Li Liuyan's face. She immediately felt suffocated and fainted.
All of this happened in just a few seconds. When the three women rushed forward, the python had already fallen to the ground.
Li Liuyan finally understood the meaning of the so-called " dog learning how to shower." She felt her heart churn as she covered her mouth,"[You guys…take out the snake gall. I'll go wash it.]] After saying that, he strode towards the waterfall.
When she came back, she saw that the snake gall that the three women took out was the size of a fist. Li Liuyan said,"[I didn't risk my life in vain.] They still had to find the Bent Serpent, but the three women had yet to recover from their fear and were adamant against it. Li Liu Yan had no choice but to bring the three women back to Dugu Cave and divide the snake gall into four portions. She told each of them to swallow one portion and circulate their energy to absorb the medicinal effects.
It was not until the next morning that the four of them finished circulating their internal energy. They felt that their internal energy had clearly improved. Li Liuyan said,[I didn't expect it to be so effective. I'll go catch another one today.]]
The three girls glared at him. Lu Wushuang walked up and grabbed his ear.[Do you know what contentment is? Have you forgotten again?]
Guo Xiang also said,[Yes, Brother Yang. Eating this can make up for months of hard work. It's already a great fortune. Let's go to Xiangyang.]]
Li Liuyan saw that the three women had the same opinion. They all had a strong sense of protecting wild animals and protecting the ecological balance, so she could only give up. However, the reluctant look on his face made the three women laugh.
At noon, the four of them arrived at Xiangyang City. Now that the war had subsided, the bustling crowd entered and exited the city. It was a stark contrast to the previous Mongolian siege, where the four gates were closed and the soldiers were on guard. Looking at the smiles on the faces of the pedestrians, Li Liuyan sighed. It is indeed comfortable in peaceful times.]
Guo Xiang rolled his eyes at him and said,"Aren't you talking nonsense? Who likes chaos?"]
Li Liuyan thought that she was indeed spouting nonsense and could only laugh.
When everyone entered the Guo Residence, someone had already rushed over to report. Huang Rong was the first to come out. She called out to Xiang 'er and glanced at Li Liuyan, Cheng Ying, and Lu Wushuang. Then, she pursed her lips and smiled.
Li Liuyan had been mentally prepared for Huang Rong's smile before entering the Guo residence, but even someone as thick-skinned as Li Liuyan could not withstand Huang Rong's smile.
At this moment, Guo Jing, Guo Fu, and the others had also arrived at the hall. Seeing Huang Rong's strange smile, they asked why she was laughing.
Cheng Ying's face had already turned red from Huang Rong's laughter.[It's fine to be laughed at by one person, but it'll be embarrassing if everyone laughs at the same time.] He hurriedly went forward and pulled Huang Rong's sleeve.[Senior Sister ~~~~~]
Huang Rong whispered in Cheng Ying's ear,"Don't worry, I won't say anything."] Only then did he stop laughing,"I'm not laughing about anything. I'm just happy to see Xiang 'er, Liu Yan, Cheng Ying, and Wushuang come back."]
Guo Jing was an honest man, so he naturally believed him. The others were not so easily deceived. Although they did not know what it was, they knew that it was definitely not as simple as being happy.
After dinner, Cheng Ying and Lu Wushuang went back to their rooms with the excuse that they were tired. Li Liuyan wanted to gauge their feelings, so she deliberately acted like they were just friends. For example, Guo Xiang and Yang Shishi were both smart people. Naturally, they wouldn't touch on awkward topics. Therefore, they lived in Zhongnan Mountain for half a month and got along very well. Even if they talked about such things, Yang Guo would drag Li Liuyan to a place where there was no one else.
However, it was different in the Guo residence. There were many people and some people who were not smart enough to go back after dinner. The reason for the matter would also be heard by them. Who knew which idiot would say this in front of everyone? Hence, after night fell, Li Liuyan could only inform every household, hoping that they would have a tacit understanding. He didn't want to embarrass Cheng Ying and Lu Wushuang.
[PS: My votes, big guys, they've all dropped beyond 100!]
