Chapter 695 Learning to Snake
Qing Chunhua was startled and looked into the distance. She saw a man hanging in the air with a thick rope around his waist on the edge of a high cliff, seemingly looking for herbs. Because they were too far away, they couldn't see his face clearly, but the three of them were all very happy.
They had been lost for so long that they had lost their way. No matter how they walked, they seemed to be going in circles. If they could meet up with the herbalist and let him lead the way, it might not be difficult to get out.
But then she frowned again. Although she could see the other person, it was because the other person was at a high place, hanging on the edge of the cliff. But the other person definitely could not see her.
Moreover, the two places were far apart, probably dozens of miles, so even if we did not stop for a moment and rushed there at full speed, it would probably take quite a while. Because the forest roads were not like the streets in the city, it was very troublesome to travel long distances.
But they finally had a chance of survival, so how could they give up easily? Even though the hope was slim, they could only grit their teeth and go on. The three of them walked towards the mountain, looking up from time to time, and seeing that the man was still hanging in the air, they felt relieved and quickened their pace.
After an hour, we were getting closer and closer to the mountain. Perhaps because we were too close, when we looked up again, we could only see lush treetops and protruding strange rocks. It was no longer possible to see the entire cliff at a glance.
Qing Chunhua climbed up a big tree and leaped into the sky. With her level of cultivation, she could jump more than a few dozen feet high. But she had been tired for several days, starved and cold, and had been poisoned by an unknown toxin, which caused her limbs to become stiff and numb. She was in a very bad condition. As a result, she only rose seven or eight feet into the air before falling to the ground.
She could not see the herbalist because of the white fog in the mountains that blocked her view. But it was not easy for her to get here, so how could she give up halfway? She simply gritted her teeth, stomped her feet, and walked deeper into the mountains.
I just hope that I can meet that person on the way up the mountain, even if it is just to give him some water and dry food. When they reached the foot of the mountain, the three of them were about to go up the mountain, but Liu Ju suddenly felt dizzy and passed out.
Qing Chunhua hurried to check, and was immediately shocked. She pulled open Liu Ju's shirt and saw snake scales all over his back, which had extended to his arms and thighs. The scales were gradually connected to his torso.
No wonder Liu Ju had been walking in a strange posture and his hands and feet were slow since recently. It turned out that the snake scale disease had become more serious and spread to his limbs, invading the nerves in his limbs.
I am afraid that if no intervention is made, the hands and feet will be paralyzed first, and then gradually connected to the torso, and finally the human body will turn into a snake body, completely turning into an "old man snake".
Qing Chunhua's hair stood up all over his body. He pulled Qu Xiaochan's clothes off and saw that her condition was not much different from Liu Ju's, only slightly milder. He then reached out and touched his back. The snake scales felt cold and smooth to the touch...
She couldn't believe that this was her own skin. Just a light touch gave her goose bumps and disgust. Then she remembered that it was her own skin, and she felt disgusted and twisted. She wanted to cut it off with a sword. Suddenly, Qu Xiaochan's eyes rolled up, and she fell to the ground with a thud, and she was completely unconscious. There were three people in the group, and two of them were unconscious. Qing Chunhua couldn't leave them alone, so she could only stay at the foot of the mountain and take care of them.
But she suddenly discovered that the snake scale disease of Liu Ju and Qu Xiaochan had spread faster since they fell into coma. When she started a fire, the snake scales were visible to the naked eye and had spread another four inches. Judging from this, the three of them would be completely transformed into snakes within two days.
Qing Chunhua suddenly thought that she would be transformed from a human into a snake, and would have to crawl in this dark forest in the future. The horrible sight of being neither human nor beast frightened her so much that tears flowed down her cheeks. The fear, terror, and grievance she had felt for several days finally burst out at this moment.
If Liu Ju and Qu Xiaochan were still conscious, she would have been able to hold back her tears. She thought that Liu Ju and Qu Xiaochan were already unconscious, and if she cried loudly, no one would hear her. If she didn't cry now, she would turn into that ugly "old man snake" in the future, and she didn't know if she would cry again.
She cried even more sadly.
"hiss…"
Suddenly, a noise reached her ears. She immediately stopped crying and looked in the direction of the sound. She saw a head sticking out from behind a big tree in the dense forest in the distance, looking at her from a distance.
His head seemed to be smiling, but he just watched quietly without saying anything.
Qing Chunhua immediately drew her sword to guard against it, but another hissing sound came from the other side. She turned her head again and saw another head sticking out from behind a tree in the other direction.
It was eerie and terrifying. Qing Chunhua then realized that there was more than one "old man snake", and far more than two.
"hiss…"
……
One after another, the sound of spitting out information was heard.
In the dense woods around, heads popped out one after another. They had different faces, but they all looked here, as if there were countless people standing in the forest.
With a "clang", Qing Chunhua's hands and feet went limp and he fell to the ground. His sword also fell to the ground. He was so frightened by this scene that he no longer had the will to resist.
That's when.
The countless old snakes suddenly paused, then one by one stretched their heads back, and there was a rustling sound, as if they were twisting their bodies and fleeing from here.
Instead, there were footsteps coming from the mountain road. Qing Chunhua looked towards the mountain road and saw a pair of black boots step out from the corner of the winding mountain road, followed by a whole person, slowly appearing in the field of vision.
The man was carrying a bamboo basket with sickles and various herbs in it. He was wearing a gray coat and black boots. Qing Chunhua looked up again and found that, except for the different clothes, the herbalist who went up the mountain was the white-clad innkeeper who came to the inn that day.
Li Changxiao smiled softly and said, "That is a human-learning snake, also called a snake-learning person, a mutant of a prehistoric beast. You, Liu Ju, and Qu Xiaochan are "learning snakes". When you have learned enough, you will naturally become a "human-learning snake" and become one of them."
"You know everything?" Qing Chunhua asked.
Li Changxiao shrugged, "I warned you, but you didn't listen. But fortunately, you only encountered a human-like snake. This kind of snake is at the bottom of the prehistoric beasts in terms of strength and intelligence. If you go deeper, you will see how powerful it is."
Qing Chunhua cried, "I'm about to turn into a snake, and you're still making sarcastic remarks. You have no conscience." Li Chang laughed and scolded, "You don't know how to appreciate kindness. You should learn a lesson. Consider me your master's behalf and teach you a lesson."
