Gu Cheng knew that he was not out of danger yet.
The snake was only injured.
It wasn't hanging up.
Therefore, he quickly swam towards the shore.
A few dog paddles.
He finally swam to the shore. Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang grabbed his arms and pulled him ashore.
Gu Cheng's tensed up mind relaxed after he got ashore.
His body immediately seemed to be drained of strength, and he could not even stand steadily.
Fortunately, Hu Bayi caught him in time.
Then, he worked together with Fatty Wang to carry him to the side of the big fire.
Yingzi also took a towel and wiped his body while suppressing her embarrassment.
He took out a gourd from his belt and let Gu Cheng take a sip.
Gu Cheng obediently took a big gulp.
The moment the spicy wine entered his throat, Gu Cheng choked and coughed violently.
However, as he coughed.
He felt a warmth in his body.
Coupled with the scorching flames, Gu Cheng's cold body finally regained some warmth.
"Old Hu, we can't stay here for long. We have to leave quickly!”
Gu Cheng said weakly.
"Do I need you to say that?"
Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang were busy packing up.
He replied angrily when he heard Gu Cheng's words.
"Little Master Gu, I'm really impressed by you this time." Fatty Wang added.”
"You know what?"
"When we saw that huge snake, we were all scared silly.”
"How can there be such a big snake?! You've become a spirit, haven't you?"
"If I was in the water, I would have been eaten by it by now.”
"But Little Master Gu, not only were you not afraid, you even dared to fight with it. Most importantly, you even seriously injured it.”
"Just because of this, from now on, Little Master Gu, you're my idol.”
Gu Cheng smiled.
He did not speak.
Right now, he only felt sore all over and mentally exhausted. He wished he could find a place to have a good sleep.
"Brother Gu, what kind of monster is that?" Yingzi asked curiously. Was it really a snake? How could there be such a huge snake? My father and I often come here, but we've never seen it before.”
"It's really a snake!" Gu Cheng forced himself to stay awake and said.”
"To be more precise, it should be a flood serpent.”
"Snakes are very intelligent creatures. Whether it's in the south or the north, there are legends of them becoming immortals.”
"In history, there have been many places where large snakes have undergone tribulations, and mysterious phenomena such as rivers surging for no reason have occurred. Some people often mistakenly believe that they are dragons, but in fact, they are flood dragons.”
"In the myths and legends of our history, there have always been legends of snakes transforming into flood dragons and flood dragons transforming into dragons.”
"It's also recorded in Shu Yi Ji that Hui turns into a flood dragon in five hundred years, a flood dragon turns into a dragon in a thousand years, a dragon turns into a horned dragon in five hundred years, and a winged dragon in a thousand years.”
"Hui is a snake."
Yingzi was stunned.
Even Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang were engrossed.
"Little Master Gu, are you saying that dragons really exist in this world?”
Fatty Wang could not help but ask.
"The world is so big that there are all kinds of strange things. I don't dare to say whether there are or not.”
"But I can be sure that if we don't leave now, that flood serpent will come ashore and we'll all be finished!”
Hearing Gu Cheng's words, the three of them could not help but look at the lake.
At this moment, the surface of the lake had become much quieter.
It was no longer as turbulent as before.
Even the pool of blood was gradually diluted, and no red could be seen.
If he hadn't seen that flood serpent before.
They didn't think much of it. Instead, they felt that this was a good place with beautiful mountains and rivers.
But now, they only felt that the more tranquil the lake was, the more terrifying it was.
"We don't need anything else. Let's hurry up and leave!”
Hu Bayi's eyelids kept twitching.
He threw the backpack he had packed to Fatty Wang and went to Gu Cheng's side.
Gu Cheng was already dressed.
However, his body was still weak and he could not walk.
Hu Bayi turned around and carried Gu Cheng on his back.
Fatty Wang and Yingzi carried their backpacks.
The four of them fled in panic.
Not long after they left.
The lake water suddenly began to churn.
Not long after, a huge snake head popped out of the water…
More than an hour later.
In a cave.
Hu Bayi, who was panting heavily, put Gu Cheng on the ground and lay down beside him, panting heavily.
Gu Cheng looked at him apologetically.”
Hu Bayi only cared about gasping for breath and couldn't be bothered to pay attention to him.
Fatty Wang looked at the cave curiously.
He first looked into the depths of the cave.
Then, he looked outside.
The sky had already turned completely dark.
Strangely, there was no moon tonight.
It was so dark that he couldn't even see his fingers.
"Is this place safe?" Fatty Wang asked worriedly.”
Yingzi took out some dry wood and weeds from the cave.
"This used to be a leopard cave."”
"Later, my father killed the leopard and occupied this place.”
"Every time we go hunting, my father and I will stay here. It should be fine.”
Only then did Fatty Wang feel slightly relieved.
When the fire started.
Instantly, the cave became much warmer.
The few of them got some dry food and chatted while eating with the boiling water on the fire.
"Hey, Little Master Gu, why did you go into the water just now?”
Fatty Wang suddenly asked.
Gu Cheng smiled and took out the Golden Cup Longevity Fruit.
"For it!"
