Agkistrodon halys was a wet, wet snake. It lived in a lair where the grass and trees flourished. Most of its lair was located in a place where the soil was thick and pine but there were cracks in the rocks. Yang Jian was extremely familiar with the situation in the mountain and had followed this terrain all the way. However, when he arrived, he saw that the wind was whining, the trees were sinister, and the dark forest was even more sinister than daytime.

Legend has it that the nest of Venom Snake Demons was in the Black Pine Forest, northwest of the North Mountain. Although no one dared to investigate it, the deeper they went into the forest, the heavier the moisture on the ground became. In such a large forest, there was not even the sound of a beast howling or a bird crying. The Third Mother and the others were shocked when they saw the weeds that were swaying like monsters due to the golden lock. On the other hand, Yang Jian's expression was calm, and he would only occasionally stop to observe the situation on the ground.

Nezha suddenly understood. "Yang Yun consumed that lingzhi to make up for his physical strength. He was preparing to take out the herbs to save them tonight." Long Si also tacitly agreed with him, but was still a bit unwilling as he said, "I don't even know the location of the snake points. To barge in so recklessly and recklessly, how can we even talk about saving others?" The Third Mother saw better than they did in the mirror. "No," she said, "when Second Brother stopped to look, he was looking for traces of the snake on the ground. He wasn't just messing around aimlessly."

As she spoke, a pungent smell came from her nose. Chen Xiang and the others were caught off guard and almost suffocated. Xiao Yu coughed continuously and shouted: "Mother, it smells so bad!" The ground in front of him suddenly opened up, revealing a five feet high flat cave hidden underneath the slanted stone wall. Not a single blade of grass rose up from the cave, scattering bones and sundries everywhere.

Just as Yang Jian stood there, something pounced out from the cave with a 'hu' sound. Its gaze was like a hanging lamp, emitting waves of intimidating green light. Its scarlet tongue continuously shrank, emitting a chilling hissing sound. Yang Jian lowered his body to dodge, and slashed diagonally with his blade. Wherever the blade passed by, there was a white mark on it, but it caused his arm to go numb. The blade was about to fall off his hand.

This was the Venom Snake Demon from back then.

Although it was unable to change its spiritual nature, it was already in a good condition. Just now, it heard that the person who cut its little red letter was its archenemy and was immediately angered. However, it was stabbed again and became even angrier. It coiled up its body, and its triangular head was so high that it actually filled the three Zhang wide open space in front of the cave. Its scales were gray and black, and they were as hard as iron and stone.

Suddenly, the snake's body exploded forward like an arrow. Yang Jian turned to the side and slashed at the snake's head again, but to no avail. He knew that the snake had been cultivating for a long time and that its scales could no longer be injured by machetes. He turned his mind and the snake's huge body suddenly became too slow. Instead of retreating, he rushed into the cave.

The stench inside the cave was even stronger, bringing with it a damp and rotten smell. When Xiao Yu was brought inside by the golden lock, she could not help but vomit out with a "wah" sound. The moonlight shined in an oblique angle, bringing out a faint phosphorescence that hung on the wall. The ground was covered in a thick layer of crushed bones, with numerous small snakes swimming back and forth in the gaps between the dried bones.

Under the cover of the broken bones of the skeletons, a few small jade-green grasses were especially eye-catching in this cold and terrifying cave.

Yang Jian did not make a sound, he immediately went up to break the broken bones, and picked the green grass before putting it away. Right at this moment, the third mother cried out in alarm, and a long tail rolled in from outside the cave, landing right on Yang Jian's waist, instantly pulling him out. The broken bones on the ground were sharp, and they left countless wounds on his body.

He lowered his head and saw that his entire body was bound by a snake tail, but he did not panic. He focused his attention and saw that the belly of the snake demon was not the grayish-black scales that he was used to seeing before.

Another loud sound rang out as the snake scales fell off, and a few drops of blood sprinkled down. Yang Jian had already taken the opportunity to leap away, but the huge snake demon beast came over and spit out its long tongue like a flame, spitting out a thick poisonous mist. Yang Jian let out a muffled groan, and fell to the ground.

In front of the mirror, everyone cried out in alarm. When the Third Mother saw that Yang Jian's face was already covered in a black mist, she became even more anxious and thought to herself, "How could this be?" Is he going to die? " However, the Devil Snake dropped its tail to the ground and hit it a few times as if it was very proud of itself. Then, it reached out to the giant on the ground and moved towards its prey.

It was at this moment, in the time between fire and lightning stones, Yang Jian reached out and tightly wrapped his arms around the snake's head. His right hand took out a small knife from his bosom and stabbed heavily into the snake demon's seven inches!

At this turn of events, the group had yet to recover from their shock, but the vital point of the snake wound was as though it had gone berserk. It writhed incessantly on the ground, and the tail of the snake suddenly retreated back into the ground. The strong wind also tightly coiled around Yang Jian once again.

Under the pale moonlight, soil and rocks were flying everywhere. Trees were broken one by one by the giant snake. Blood oozed out from the corner of its mouth. The black gas on its face became thicker and thicker.

After an unknown period of time, the snake gradually weakened. After a few spasms, it finally stopped moving.

Yang Jian leaned on the snake's body. After a long while, his fingers that were holding onto the dagger moved slightly. Bai Hua let out a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, you did not die. Third sister, you can be saved!" When the Third Virgin saw Yang Jian's body covered in blood, she felt a little sad. She thought to herself, "This time, if it wasn't for second brother doing his best, I would probably be one of the bones in the cave."

After a long while, Yang Jian slowly got up. Everyone knew that he had taken a risk just now, using drinking a few days worth of snake medicine as a wager and using the black mist of the Devil Snake to deceive them. Thinking about how the Third Mother was still at home, waiting for the herbs to save her life, he couldn't help but worry.

Sure enough, after only taking a few steps, he softly collapsed on top of the broken bones at the entrance. An incomparable tiredness assaulted him, causing Yang Jian to only want to fall asleep, and forget about the unbearable pain in his entire body. However, his little sister's frown was replaced with a bitter expression. His heart trembled as he tried his best to maintain a trace of clarity.

He lowered his head and saw that the snake slaughtering knife was still in his hand. Yang Jian laughed bitterly, raised his hand and stabbed the knife deep into his left shoulder.

He struggled to stand up again. Yang Jian was afraid of rebirth, so he did not dare to linger, and quickly ran down the mountain. At first, his steps were unsteady, but as he walked faster, they became faster and faster.

Everyone's hearts clenched as they stared at him. Only then did they heave a sigh of relief. Chen Xiang patted her chest and smiled. "Thankfully I got the herb, I'm fine now." Sigh, look, Yang Jian isn't as capable as he was when I first learned it. " Nezha laughed. "Come on." After all, you started out as a disciple, while Yang Jian taught himself. You are truly inferior to him. Can you defeat the demon that is stronger than you when you have just started learning? "Yang Jian is indeed powerful. If it wasn't for the fact that later on …" He shook his head and stopped talking.

Seeing Yang Jian running away in such a hurry, the Third Virgin was a little distracted and sighed, "So it was that dangerous for Second Brother to save me this time. However, after returning …" Xiao Yu asked, "What happened after we went back? Didn't he go to save you with the snake grass? " Third Madonna nodded and shook her head. "I was still young and I didn't know it was a life-saving herb, but I was suddenly woken up and cried. But second brother, second brother has such a big temper because of this! "

After letting out a long sigh, she began to talk about the things that had happened that day, "Second Brother came back to his room and forced me to take the medicine, then locked me up in his room. Then it rained, the wind was strong, the room was dark, and I was weak and scared to death. I pounded on the door and begged him over and over again to promise not to make any more noise and to be obedient. "But he just ignored me …" Remembering the time he was imprisoned in Mount Hua, the Third Lady felt even more bitter. "I should have known then that he was a stone-hearted man. I should not have begged him, and even if I had begged him again, he would not have let me off! "

Everyone looked at the mountain. Even though it was daytime, it was dark and gloomy. The wind rustled through the trees, adding to the creepy atmosphere. Although she was being disobedient, she was still too heartless to lock a little girl who had yet to recover from her shock alone in her room. Hundred Blossom couldn't help but say: "He really has such a heartless personality since he was young. No wonder he would do such a thing in the future."

During the narration, Yang Jian had already returned to his hut. He exhaled a long breath and took out some herbs to mash it up. Just as he was about to wake up his little sister, he stretched out his hand and retracted it. He took out a clean set of clothes to cover up the blood on his body. Only then did he shake the little Yang Lian and bring her to eat this life-saving herb.

Yang Lian was still sleeping soundly when she was woken up. She took a sip of the strange grass, which tasted even worse than the blood she had tasted the day before. She was immediately filled with reluctance as she shouted, "No, second brother, I want to sleep. I don't want to eat this strange grass!"

Just as Yang Jian was about to persuade her, he felt something sweet in his throat. He hurriedly turned his head and forcefully swallowed the blood that was gushing out. Yang Lian was still making a ruckus, almost flipping the herbs in his hands. Yang Jian's face was pale, and he felt the blood in his chest roiling. If he were to say a few more words, he might really faint beside his younger sister.

He immediately grabbed Yang Lian and said angrily, "Little girl, stop messing around!" Yang Lian had never seen her second brother act so fearfully before, and was momentarily stunned. Yang Jian only relaxed after he forced her to swallow the herbs. Seeing that he was about to speak, as if he wanted to comfort his sister, the group suddenly held their chests and rushed out of the room. After locking the door, they spat out a mouthful of blood on the ground, unconscious.

The Third Mother's body trembled as she said in surprise, "So he fainted? No wonder he wouldn't answer me. I... I was wrong about him! "

The night was dark, and the little Yang Lian in the room was rather frightened. She continuously knocked on the door and begged, but Yang Jian did not wake up. After releasing his blood for three days straight, he had been severely injured in today's battle. Now that the poison had been released, how could he still know about what had happened in the outside world? Yang Lian cried for a while, thinking that she was tired. Her voice became softer as she slowly fell asleep without making a sound.

In the middle of the night, heavy rain suddenly poured down, accompanied by the whistling of the wind. Yang Lian woke up from her shock, crying out for her second brother to accompany her. Yang Jian did not notice it at all outside, as the wounds on his body had already split open.
