In the valley, raindrops beat mercilessly on the grass and trees, and a few muffled thunders sounded from time to time in the gloomy sky.

An unburned yellow talisman slid down the boulder in the rain. Before it could float to the ground, it was bitten by a dark red poisonous snake. When other poisonous snakes saw this, they immediately started fighting for it. The yellow talisman was soon densely packed. The venomous snake tore it into pieces, which was a horrifying sight.

"Interesting, it seems that you are hungry, but you are not attacking. Could it be that Shen is not to your taste?"

Shen Qin stood on the boulder, smiled to himself, held up the bamboo hat on his head, looked at the Taoist temple halfway up the mountain, and sighed softly.

"The Bagua puzzle has been solved. They should be able to return to the camp safely. Alas, if that stubborn guy had taken the medicine at that time, I wouldn't have been so worried."

At this moment, a sharp and strange hissing sound sounded. The originally chaotic group of snakes immediately quieted down after hearing the sound, and spread out from the middle to both sides like a tide, revealing a spacious road.

Then, Shen Qin was shocked to see a menacing three-headed snake crawling towards him.

This giant snake was completely black and was a hundred paces long. Its three snake heads stood up as high as a house. Its golden snake eyes emitted a terrifying and fierce light. It had a mouth full of sharp teeth and a giant tongue.

Shen Qin showed no fear on her face and clicked her tongue twice.

"Is this a monster transformed from a demon? It looks really scary."

The three-headed giant snake walked in front of him. It did not attack Shen Qin directly. Instead, it tilted its head and looked at the yellow talisman fragments on the ground, seemingly confused.

Shen Qin crossed his arms and smiled coldly.

"Unfortunately, you fell into the trap. There is only Shen here, and the others evacuated in another direction. But by the way, your lover did not betray you. He was loyal to you until his death. It's a pity. .”

The three-headed giant snake seemed to understand. It shook its head towards the sky and let out a roar that shook the earth. Then it opened its bloody mouth and attacked Shen Qin!

……

……

In the storm, a group of wounded and disabled soldiers struggled through the vegetation.

The sleeping King Xi was carried on a stretcher by the guards. Liu Qingyan held a sword in his hand and stood guard by his side. Xiaohu stumbled at the back of the team. As he walked, his feet suddenly gave way and he sat down on the ground. , said frustratedly.

"I'm so sick that I don't have any strength at all. I really can't walk. I might as well let the snake eat me."

A guard with a square face beside him said kindly,

"Hold on a little longer, we're not far from the camp!"

Xiaohu's expression cheered up after hearing this. With the help of the guard, he climbed up with difficulty and continued to complain.

"It's really unlucky. If I had known that I could break the ghost formation by knocking down the two big tanks, I wouldn't have been trapped for so long..."

The square-faced guard continued.

"Who would have thought that the layout of the entire Taoist temple is the formation eye. I heard that it was an eagle that guided Judge Shen to discover it. It's really strange!"

Xiaohu said while coughing.

"Even if he can understand the birdsong, I wouldn't be surprised. After all, he just ran away. King Xi shouldn't be angry with me, but I didn't do anything."

The square-faced guard was silent for a moment and said sadly.

"I heard from Guard Chief Liu that he didn't escape, but tried to lure the snakes away in order to save us."

Xiaohu suddenly realized, "No wonder, why are there no snakes chasing us? He must be so amazing."

The square-faced guard sighed with concern.

"However, it's dangerous to do this. Do you think he can come back safely?"

"Even if it's safe, he won't come back. Who wants to be a prisoner? You said they... Oops!"

Before Xiaohu could finish his words, he was hit hard by a fist on his head and screamed in pain.

Liu Qingyan, who hit him, had a stern look on his face and shouted loudly.

"Bold slave! You have committed a crime and still don't shut up. No one will protect you from now on. You'd better be careful with your words and actions, otherwise your life will be at risk!"

Xiaohu was so frightened that he immediately covered his mouth and didn't even dare to cough.

At this moment, there was a sudden rumbling sound in the distance. The sound became louder and louder, and even the ground trembled.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and were dumbfounded to see a huge torrent pouring down from the top of a high mountain in the distance, carrying sand and sand, and instantly submerged the Cangmen Taoist Temple where they lived.

Liu Qingyan was shocked when he saw this and shouted loudly.

"It's a flash flood! There's a flash flood over there! Everyone, evacuate quickly!"
