Chapter 695 Learning to Be a Snake

Qing Chunhua was startled and looked into the distance. She saw a person on the edge of a high peak cliff with a thick rope wrapped around his waist. His body was hanging in the air, as if he was gathering herbs. Because they were too far apart, they couldn't see their faces clearly, but all three of them were overjoyed.

They have been lost so far and have lost their bearings. No matter how they walk, they seem to be going around in circles. If we could meet up with the herb gatherer 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 he was at a high place, hanging on the edge of the cliff. But the other party will definitely not be able to see you.

Moreover, the distance between the two places is probably dozens of miles. Even if we don't stop for a moment and rush there with all our strength, it will probably take a long time. Because the roads in the forest are no better than the streets in the city, traveling long distances is extremely troublesome.

But after finally having a chance to survive, how could the three of them give up easily? Even if there was little hope, they could only grit their teeth and go. The three of them walked towards the high mountain. From time to time they looked up and saw that the man was still hanging in the air. They felt relieved and quickened their pace.

An hour passed, and we were getting closer and closer to the mountain. Perhaps it was because we were too close. When we looked up again, we could only see the lush tree crowns and protruding strange rocks. It was difficult to see the entire mountain cliff at a glance.

Qing Chunhua climbed up a big tree and jumped into the sky with all her strength. With her level of cultivation, if she jumps with all her strength, she is far more than dozens of feet tall. However, she worked hard for several days, suffered from hunger and cold, and was exposed to unknown toxins, causing her limbs to become stiff and numb, and she was in really bad condition. As a result, it only rose seven or eight feet into the air before falling to the ground.

She couldn't see the herb gatherer because white mist had risen in the mountains, obscuring her view. But after finally reaching this point, there was no reason to give up halfway, so she simply gritted her teeth, stamped her feet, and headed towards the mountains.

I just hope that I can meet that person on the way up the mountain, and even 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. Liu Ju suddenly felt dizzy and passed out.

Qing Chunhua hurriedly took care of it, and when she saw it, she was so shocked that her soul flew away. She peeled off Liu Ju's back and saw that his back was covered with snake scales, which had extended to his arms and thighs. The areas covered by snake scales gradually connected with his torso.

No wonder Liu Ju has been walking in a weird posture and his hands and feet are sluggish since the fight. It turns out that the snake scale disease is getting worse and spreads to the limbs and engulfs the nerves in the limbs.

I'm afraid that if no intervention is taken, the limbs will first become paralyzed, then gradually become connected to the trunk, and finally the human body will transform into a snake body, completely turning into an "old man snake".

Qing Chunhua's whole body was covered with cold hair, and she took off Qu Xiaochan's clothes and saw that her symptoms were not much different from Liu Ju's, only slightly milder. Immediately, he reached out and touched his back again. The snake scales felt cold and smooth to the touch...

She couldn't believe that this was actually her own skin. Just touching it lightly made her skin crawl and made her feel nauseous. When she thought about it again, it was her own skin, which made her feel disgusted and she wanted to cut it off with a sword. Suddenly, Qu Xiaochan rolled her eyes, fell to the ground with a pop, and passed out completely. There were three people in the group, and two of them were unconscious. Qing Chunhua couldn't leave them alone, so she could only stop at the foot of the mountain and take care of them.

But she suddenly discovered that the snake scale disease spread faster after Liu Ju and Qu Xiaochan fell into coma. As soon as she lit a fire, the snake scales were visible to the naked eye and spread to an area of ​​four inches. Judging from this, I am afraid that within two days, the three of them will completely turn into snakes.

Qing Chunhua suddenly thought that she had transformed from a human into a snake and could only crawl in this dark forest in the future. The terrifying sight of neither human nor beast made her burst into tears. Days of fear, panic, and grievance finally broke out at this moment.

If Liu Ju and Qu Xiaochan were still conscious, she would be able to hold it back. She only said that Liu Ju and Qu Xiaochan were in coma, and no one would hear her crying loudly. If you don't cry now, you will turn into that ugly "old man snake" in the future. I wonder if you will cry again.

He cried even more sadly.

"hiss…"

Suddenly, a murmur reached her ears. She immediately stopped crying and followed the sound, and saw a head sticking out from behind a big tree in the dense forest in the distance, looking at her from a very far distance.

His head seemed to be smiling but not smiling, so he watched quietly without speaking.

Qing Chunhua immediately drew her sword to be on guard, but another hissing sound came from the other side. She turned around and looked again, and saw a head in another direction, poking out from behind the tree.

Eerie, eerie and horrifying. Only then did Qing Chunhua realize that there was more than one "old man snake", and even more, there were more than two.

"hiss…"

…

There was a sound of spitting out messages.

In the surrounding dense forest, heads poked out one after another. Their faces were different, but they all looked towards this place, as if there were countless people standing in the forest.

With a "clang", Qing Chunhua's hands and feet went limp, and she collapsed to the ground. Her long sword also fell to the ground. She was so frightened by this scene that she could no longer resist.

That's when.

The countless old snakes suddenly paused, and then stretched their heads back one by one. There was a rustling sound, as if the snakes were twisting their bodies, and they fled here one after another.

Instead, there were footsteps coming from the mountain road. Qing Chunhua looked towards the mountain road and saw a black boot stepping out from the corner of the winding mountain road, followed closely by the whole person, slowly appearing in the field of vision.

The man was holding a bamboo basket with a sickle and various herbs in it. He was wearing gray clothes and black boots. Qing Chunhua looked up again and discovered that except for the different clothes, the herb collector who went up the mountain was the white-clothed shopkeeper who came to the inn that day.

Li Changxiao smiled lightly and said, "That is a human-learning snake, also called a snake-learning person, which is a variant of the 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 reminded you, but you didn't listen. But fortunately, you only encountered a human-learning snake. This kind of snake is at the bottom of the prehistoric beasts in terms of strength and intelligence. If you go deeper, which one is more powerful."

Qing Chunhua cried, "I'm about to turn into a snake, and you're still talking nonsense. You have no conscience." Li Changxiao scolded, "You don't know the good people. You should learn a lesson. I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your master."
