"Plop!"

Yan Jiu stood there in a daze, listening to the sound of the dagger piercing through the air. Yan Jiu lost his mind for a moment. After a long time, he finally recovered and sat on the ground.

Seeing Yan Jiu's dazed expression, Gao Shou wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and shouted at Yan Jiu,""How is it? Did you pee your pants?"

Gao Shou also secretly heaved a sigh of relief. After all, the situation just now had happened too suddenly. It was impossible to predict what would happen in the end. Fortunately, things were developing in a good direction.

After hearing Gao Shou's words, Yan Jiu finally reacted. He raised his head and felt that his body was covered in cold sweat. He turned around and cursed,"What the hell is this thing? It's not dead after taking forty to fifty hits from me, and it can even bite…Ah!”

Yan Jiu was halfway through his scolding when he turned around. When he saw the snake that had been shot onto the tree, he cried out in surprise again. His legs went soft and he almost fell to the ground again.

Gao Shou also raised his head slightly. His gaze shifted from Yan Jiu to the direction where he had shot the dagger.

The dagger pierced through the snake's head and its jaw, nailing it to the tree trunk.

But even so, the snake's torso continued to twist and turn, and the extent of its twisting was extremely large, as if it had not received any damage.

Gao Shou narrowed his eyes and walked over.

" Boss, don't, be careful..." Yan Jiu saw Gao Shou walking over and wanted to stop him, but Gao Shou's disdainful gaze made him swallow his words.

Gao Shou glanced at Yan Jiu, then waved at Huo Qingyi," Scholar, give me another dagger."”

Huo Qingyi took out a dagger from her waist and threw it to Gao Shou. Gao Shou caught the dagger and observed the snake closely.

After a while, Gao Shou frowned and waved at Huo Qingyi,""Scholar, quickly bring me the scabbard in my bag. Come over and take a look at this snake. Is it exactly the same as the snake in the painting?”

Huo Qingyi raised her eyebrows and quickly handed the scabbard over. Then, she leaned over and started observing.

Although the scabbard had been worn for a long time, some of its most striking features could still be recognized.

If it was straightened, it would be about a meter long, and the widest part was only as thick as a fist.

Gao Shou used his hand to press on its body. Its body was covered with black scale-like cuticle, and it was extremely hard. On its forehead, there were two slightly protruding things that looked like horns. There was also long hair growing on the lower part of its abdomen.

"That's right, it's exactly as described in the ancient book, and it's almost exactly the same as the painting on the scabbard. But why is it here? According to the ancient records, this snake was brought into the Central Plains from the Western Regions during the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty royal family specially built a mountain more than ten kilometers away from here to breed this snake. Why is it here now…"

Huo Qingyi rubbed her chin and lowered her head to look at the snake. She thought about the ancient books she had read and the drawings on the scabbard.

"Why are you thinking so much? What this snake is here for has nothing to do with us. Maybe it was before, but after I killed this black-haired snake, it has nothing to do with us.”

After saying that, Gao Shou pulled out the dagger in his hand and stabbed the black-haired snake a few times.

In Gao Shou's eyes, the black-haired snake, which could only move its lower body, was a live target. Every time Gao Shou pulled out the dagger that was inserted into it, blood would splash out.

It was only when there was no longer any visible part of the black-haired snake's body that could be seen. Every part of the snake seemed to have bloomed, and flesh was exposed, leaving behind fresh blood. Only then did he swing the dagger and put it back into its sheath.

Then, he pulled out the dagger that was stuck in the snake's head.

"Alright, it was a false alarm. Just treat it as an appetizer. The danger below is just child's play. You should be careful when you go down. There are dangers everywhere below. If you're not careful, you'll be consigned to eternal damnation. I can't save you even if I want to.”

Gao Shou said as he rummaged through his backpack.

Yan Jiu looked at Gao Shou, then at the black-haired snake that was lying on the ground bleeding because Gao Shou had pulled out the dagger. He still had lingering fear in his heart. He stared at it, afraid that it would get up again and hit him again.

After looking at it for a long time, although it did not move at all, he still could not rest assured. He asked Gao Shou,"Boss, what should we do with this snake?”

Hearing Yan Jiu's question, Gao Shou replied without raising his head,""What should we do? If you're interested, you can play with it. If you're not afraid of dirty things, you can also light a fire and skin this black-furred snake. Roast it and eat it. It might taste good!”

Listening to Gao Shou's heartless teasing, Yan Jiu thought about the scene Gao Shou had described and could not help but shudder. Then, before he could say anything, he saw Gao Shou throw something at him.

"Alright, don't think too much. It's already been stabbed so many times. If it can still get up in this state, then it's really a monster. Hurry up and put these things on your body. They're all life-saving.”

Gao Shou said as he threw a pile of things at Yan Jiu.

Yan Jiu looked at the pile of items and was speechless. However, after hearing Gao Shou say that these were life-saving items, he recalled what had happened not long ago. After a cold shiver, he quickly put these things on his body.

"Well, Boss Gao, I know all about these daggers and ropes, but what's with your black donkey hooves? Wouldn't that be like going down to be dry rations?"

"Also, what's this small bag? Why is it so heavy? There's still a thread that can move…"

Seeing Yan Jiu acting like a curious child, he could not help but smile. However, when he saw Yan Jiu pick up a small bag and reach his hand out to a rope, he immediately lost his composure.

"F * ck! Let go of me! This is a f * cking bomb!"
