The ancient saying of a horse running away from a mountain was probably referring to the situation that Wishing and the others were in now.
It was still noon when they set off, but it was already past midnight when they reached the vicinity of Mount Zagrema.
At this moment, there were no clouds in the night sky. There was only a full moon hanging high in the sky. Under the watery moonlight, everyone slowly advanced toward the valley.
However, just as they were about to enter the valley, the camel suddenly stopped. No matter how much strength An Liman used to pull it, it refused to go. It even pulled An Liman back.
"This is really strange. Why is this camel unwilling to move forward no matter what?”
Wang Kaixuan said in confusion as he patted the camel.
"Fatty, camels are intelligent. They should have sensed the fatal danger ahead, so they're not willing to move forward.”
Seeing this scene, Wish frowned. He knew that he must have encountered the black-crowned snake. He reached out for the Dragon Spring Sword on his back and answered Fatty's question.
Everyone couldn't help but feel nervous. They had made many wishes along the way. Whether it was when they heard about the Desert Army Ants in the West Night Ancient City or when they were at Prince Gumo's tomb, they had all proved that their wishes were right.
"Miss Yang, give me a firework stick.”
Hu Bayi knew that there must be danger ahead when he saw the wish. He immediately reached out to Shirley Yang for a fireworks stick to see what was going on.
Although a flashlight could also be used to see the situation in front, the intensity of the flashlight was not enough. It could not shine far at all, so it was better to use a fireworks stick.
"Old Hu, here."
Shirley Yang loosened the left strap of her backpack and moved it in front of her. She unzipped it and took out a firework stick and handed it to Hu Bayi.
Tsk!
Hu Bayi pulled out the string of the sparkler and immediately threw it forward. The sparkler streaked across the night sky and landed on the ground.
Everyone saw a man in a white robe with a headscarf sitting on the ground dozens of meters away. His back was against an oval rock.
"Who is it?" The moment Wang Kaixuan saw the person, he raised his gun and aimed at him. After asking, he saw that the person did not speak, so he said," If you don't speak, I'll shoot.”
"Fatty, stop shouting. The other party isn't breathing at all. He should be dead.”
Wishing stopped Fatty and said,""You guys stay here first. I'll go over and take a look.”
With that, he walked over with the Seven Star Dragon Spring Sword in his hand.
The black-crowned snake was very poisonous, which could be seen from the fact that Hao Aiguo died within a few seconds after being bitten in the original movie. Therefore, he had to go over and kill the two snakes first, lest Hao Aiguo died like in the original movie, or others were poisoned to death. After all, if he was poisoned, he did not know if the antidote pills he exchanged from the store and the serum he bought from the hospital would be useful.
Although there were a total of two black-crowned snakes in the original movie, no one could guarantee that there would not be more black-crowned snakes around. Therefore, they walked for more than two minutes with full vigilance.
Walking to the corpse, he saw that the skin of the corpse was green and was emitting a strange blue light.
"Little brother, did you find anything?"
Just as Wishing was about to use his Dragon Spring Sword to remove the clothes on the corpse, he heard Hu Bayi's voice coming from the side. He turned around and saw Hu Bayi walking over with an engineer shovel.
"Old Hu, why are you here? Didn't I tell you to come back after I'm sure there's no danger?”
"I'm just worried that it's not safe for you to be alone.”Hu Bayi replied.
At the same time, a strange snake that spat out red almonds crawled out from the chest of the corpse. The snake's body bounced and flew towards Wish to bite him.
"Little brother, be careful." Hu Bayi immediately shouted and rushed over.
Without Hu Bayi's reminder, Wishing tapped his feet on the ground the moment the snake pounced. He leaped backward and slashed down with his Dragon Spring Sword, cutting the snake in half.
The snake that had been cut in half instantly lost its momentum and fell down. Wishing, who knew that the snake was still alive after being cut in half, immediately reminded Hu Bayi.
"Old Hu, take the lead."
Hu Bayi, who had rushed over, immediately used his shovel to hit the head of the strange snake, and the snake's head was instantly smashed into pieces.
After reminding Hu Bayi, Wishing twisted his waist, and the Dragon Spring Sword flew out of his hand. Like a sharp arrow, it shot towards another strange snake that had just crawled out of the corpse backpack.
The strange snake that had just made a flying bite was directly pierced through the head by the Dragon Spring Sword. The red light on the snake's body was extinguished and it fell to the ground. It was obviously dead.
Wishing jumped up and landed on the big rock. He pulled out the Dragon Spring Sword from the rock and began to check the surroundings with Hu Bayi.
When he saw another foreigner's body, he used his sword to tear open his clothes, but he did not find the strange snake.
"Old Hu, there shouldn't be any more snakes.”Wishing carefully looked around and did not find any other strange snakes. It seemed that there were only two strange snakes entrenched here, just like in the original movie.
"Alright." Hu Bayi replied. Just as he was about to call the others, he heard Fatty shout,"Little brother, Old Hu, are you all right?”
"It's okay. Bring everyone over.”Hu Bayi replied loudly.
"Alright." Wang Kaixuan responded and walked over with the others.
Wishing and Hu Bayi took the AK47 and backpack from the corpse. They opened the backpack and saw that it was filled with explosives.
When the fat man saw the AK47, he immediately felt that the hunting rifle in his hand wasn't fragrant. He threw the hunting rifle to Chu Jian and quickly ran over to pick up the AK47. He then happily fiddled with it.
An Liman confirmed that the two bodies were the foreigners he had brought into the desert.
Looking at the miserable state of the two corpses, everyone felt that they should not stay here for long. They hurriedly rode on the camels that had returned to normal and continued to move forward.
Before long, they had crossed the valley. After walking for a while, the sun slowly rose.
Everyone saw a dilapidated ancient city half-hidden by yellow sand in the east.
The ancient city was full of ruins and broken walls. It had been buried by the yellow sand for nearly a thousand years. Some parts had already collapsed and turned into sand. Even so, one could imagine how magnificent the ancient city was in the past.
However, this was not the main point. The main point was that this ancient city was exactly the same as the ancient city in Shirley Yang's photo. In other words, they had arrived at Jingjue Ancient City.
