Chapter 9 The Gaze of the Snake

The young officer held his breath, it was not difficult because he had forgotten how much he breathed.

The bald man smiled at him for a while, and found that there was no effect, so he retracted the tree. Soon, another face appeared behind the tree. The officer recognized this person. This was a veteran deputy he brought. Although he didn't remember his name, his appearance would not be wrong. The only strange thing was that he smiled, and he kept nodding, without the majesty of the Xuan Fu Army.

The officer still did not move, and the face behind the tree kept changing, as if he had to use this method to attract him.

Previously, the officer left the soldiers and fled alone, and did not see the scene of the fight, but he was very sure that only the head was left in these faces that laughed at him.

When the officer's patience came to an end as he thought of more than ten lonely heads smiling at him in turn, he screamed in vain and fell down. The red horse was startled, jumped out a few steps, and stopped again, without detecting the danger at all.

The screams woke everyone up. Xiaoqiu and Fangfang's heads hit each other, and the pain made them scream at the same time.

The teenagers were in a mess and were dizzy for a while before they saw the officer still screaming.

The heads that appeared in turn finally lost patience and could not lure them. The manipulator behind them showed his true face. Two or three feet high, the huge snake head was suspended in the air, and the two yellow eyes as big as lanterns flashed with cold light.

This time, no Xuanfu Army soldiers fought in front of the battle. The snake demon seemed to know that this was a group of humans with little combat power. They slowly lowered their height and looked at them one by one.

The young officer finally stopped screaming and fainted for the third time in less than a day.

The teenagers in Yelin Town had run away twice, but this time, under the direct gaze of the snake demon, their legs seemed to be frozen and could not move for a moment. They could only stand obediently in the same place. The extreme panic caused a numbness in their minds.

The snake demon crawled around the teenagers, stopped when they were close to the connection of their heads and tails, circled them in their bodies, and then continued to stare at the humans, spitting out long snake letters at everyone, as if looking for something.

The boys could speak, Erliang first thought of a possibility and said tremblingly: "It's full during the day, now it's surrounded us and keep it as breakfast."

This scene scared everyone very much. Lanzi was a little fatter than others. He was particularly scared when he heard this and leaned close to Ersun, "What should I do? Why don't we hand over your bay horse?"

The snake demon was not interested in the larger food. The red horse was entangled outside. It ran a little farther away, sniffing everywhere for the grass, not abandoning its owner, and never thought of saving it.

Er Shuan swallowed his saliva, hid the sword behind him, and whispered: "Find the right opportunity, run away if you can."

Looking at the snake body taller than himself in the night, the teenagers couldn't think of how they could have a chance to escape.

"It's captive." Xiaoqiu suddenly had an idea.

The giant head of the snake demon gradually lowered, and finally only a few feet above the ground. His eyes were parallel to the teenagers, and hissing sounds were made in his mouth, as if he was giving some order.

Xiaoqiu took a step, and the teenagers gathered together nervously, but they also admired them in their hearts.

"I." Xiaoqiu looked at the snake demon's huge round eyes, trying hard to keep her eyes open, and then pointed at the officer who fainted not far away, "Wake him up, and then we will go with you."

The snake demon blinked his eyes, as if trying to understand what the little human said, then nodded and understood.

Langzi held Ershuan's arm, "What does Xiaoqiu mean? Follow it? Where are you going?"

Ershuan broke free from his stupid hand and blinked slightly at his friends, signaling them not to be afraid, Xiaoqiu had his own idea.

Xiaoqiu slowly walked towards the officer.

The officer fainted near the middle part of the snake demon's body. Xiaoqiu turned his back to the snake's head, knelt on the ground and pushed hard.

The officer slowly opened his eyes, first looked at Xiaoqiu with a blank look on his face, then found the huge and slippery snake body beside him, sat up, opened his mouth wide and screamed again.

Xiaoqiu covered the officer's mouth, "Stop calling, what's the use?"

The officer's eyes were wide open and he nodded reluctantly.

"You're calming down now?"

The officer nodded again.

"Can you stand up?"

The officer still nodded.

Xiaoqiu moved away his hand covering his mouth and stuffed a stack of paper talismans to the officer with the other hand.

The officer was stunned and understood Xiaoqiu's intention. He finally took back his bodyguard paper talisman, but he did not have the courage to use it. "My legs..."

Xiaoqiu stood up with the officer, grabbed his shoulder and shook it twice, "Is it better? Can you walk?"

The officer nodded first, then shook his head, not even daring to look at the snake demon.

Xiaoqiu really wanted to beat the officer like Ershuan. He was a member of the Xuanfu Army. He was harsh and cold when facing prisoners. When he needed to stand up, he was scared like a sheep. He was even worse than the youngest boy in Yelin Town. Fangfang was a girl and was not as incompetent as him.

The snake demon moved its head over and stopped a few feet away to observe the two humans. The officer was so scared that he was about to collapse again. Xiaoqiu held him and then stood in front as much as possible so that the snake demon would not see the stack of paper talismans.

"If you can't move, you have to give it to fill your stomach first." Xiao Qiu said, holding the dagger in his right hand. When he had no way to go, he was not very scared, and he wouldn't sit and wait for death anyway.

The officer regained his calmness after extreme panic, "I can move, don't, don't give me it."

Xiaoqiu took a step forward, faced the snake head that was taller than him, and said loudly: "Where are you going? Are you going to set out now?"

The snake's head slowly raised and stopped when it rose to more than ten feet high. It looked down at the tiny human. A green light flashed strangely in the yellow eyes of the lantern, moving from left to right, and soon disappeared. Then, it opened its mouth, revealing its long fangs and unfathomable black holes.

"What is it doing? Isn't it going to capture prisoners?" Xiaoqiu asked in confusion.

The officer is the only person who has a little understanding of demons. The courage he had just gathered together also means to escape. "It is not about taking us away, it is about absorbing the essence of human beings to cultivate the demon body, so it wants to keep us alive, because there are only living people..."

He couldn't continue and wanted to faint again so that the snake demon would not be interested in him.

Xiaoqiu was actually very scared, but this fear did not make him lose his courage, but instead developed a fighting spirit in desperate situations. He suddenly pulled out his dagger and shouted loudly at the black hole above his head, posing for the opportunity to face the enemy.

The snake demon is unmoved, the more lively the prey is, the better the effect of cultivating the demon body.

Xiaoqiu's brave behavior was a kind of motivation for the besieged teenagers. Ershun raised the long sword behind him with both hands, took big steps and rushed towards the nearest snake body, and the shouts made louder than Xiaoqiu.

Ershuan slashed the snake with one sword, hoping to open a passage. With a bang, the sharp talisman sword did not even cut off a scale, but was bounced into the air and landed heavily on the ground. Ershuan had a ruthless force. Without weapons, he pounced on the snake and opened his mouth and bit it.

The snake demon didn't care about such an attack and ran towards the nearest human with his mouth wide open.

The black hole was getting closer and Xiaoqiu was still shouting loudly. Behind him, the officer finally gathered enough courage and raised his right hand up, "By-bye!"

A white light like a wheel flew up from the officer's hand at a rapid speed and headed straight for the snake demon's yellow eyes.

This was not the hard attack of the young man in the town, but the powerful force emitted by the first-class paper talisman of Xijieguo. The snake demon obviously did not expect this move. The snake head swung over the light.

The snake demon actually made a dodge move, which made the officer's confidence multiply. His right hand kept emitting one paper talisman after another, shouting and shouting, all of which were "hundred-step strikes" and "Ice-Exploding God's Thorn", but there were no invisibility and guide talismans he had mentioned before.

Xiaoqiu didn't expect this, but felt that the officer had made a move too fast and had no accurate head. More than ten paper talismans were issued, but they just raised the snake's head a little, but they didn't hit it in one go.

"Blow the snake body! Blow the snake body!" Xiaoqiu reminded loudly, but the officer was like crazy and couldn't stop at all. He opened his mouth and looked at Xiaoqiu with a tongue-in-cheek, "No, it's gone."

The snake demon was angry, and the snake head swayed twice in the air, dived suddenly, intending to fight quickly.

At the same time, Xiaoqiu also made a move, pounced on the snake, held the dagger tightly and stabbed it hard. He knew that this action was useless, but he still refused to give in.

puff!

This stab, beyond everyone's expectations, actually penetrated the scales and pierced into the snake's body.

The snake demon was even more surprised. Although the dagger was not long, it was a little afraid. The snake's head rose again, and its body swayed violently, throwing Xiaoqiu and the dagger out.

"Yes, use a dagger! Use a dagger! This is a treasure that has killed monsters." The officer shouted, just remembering that this dagger was his own thing, a magical thing with a lot of origin. While speaking, he ran back with his hands and feet, hoping to stay away from the snake's head.

Xiaoqiu got up from the ground, and with one blow, he became more courageous. He shouted and rushed over again.

Ershuan behind him was stunned for a while, ran a few steps, picked up the long sword on the ground, shouted loudly, and followed Xiaoqiu to attack the snake's head.

The desire to compete for the position of the young leader of Yelin Town overwhelmed all fears. Even if there was a deep abyss ahead, Ershuan would jump down without hesitation.

The other teenagers also shouted, but they still dared not move, cheering without leaving any strength, and shouted at the top of their lungs. Several of them were red and unwilling to stop.

The sharp voices gathered together, and there was a bit of a high-pitched momentum. The snake demon opposite seemed to be suppressed. His yellow eyes retracted back several feet, and then quickly changed direction, and he actually wanted to escape.

Xiaoqiu and Ershuan's confidence increased, and they didn't think that even ten snake monsters could not beat even the soldiers of the Xuanfu Army. How could they be afraid of the two children? Instead, they speeded up and chased after them.

The snake demon really wanted to escape, and he ran away in panic. He circled a big tree. The snake body, which was almost as thick as the trunk, was like a moving hill. It slid past two brave boys, and finally swept the tip of the tail and took them more than ten steps away.

Xiaoqiu felt something fell in his arms, and hugged it. After landing, he looked down and it turned out to be the bald man's head, with a funny smile on his face. Xiaoqiu's hair stood up, and instinctively threw his hands back. The last part of the bald man was discarded.

Xiaoqiu and Ershuan were knocked away so easily that the teenagers' shouts became weaker. Only then did they realize that there was someone else who scared away the snake demon.

"bite……"
