Zhang Chunliang had a fever, his head was dizzy, and his breathing was frighteningly hot.

He could feel that something was wrong with his body, but in the deep mountains and forests, there was no way to reduce the fever quickly.

So he opened the system's mall, and just as Tingying said, the game treated "rebels" very harshly. A fever-reducing drug was sold at a sky-high price of 130 points - he only got 300 points for completing the previous copy.

He exhaled a breath of hot air and decided to bear it. Maybe the fever would go away naturally after tonight.

He wanted to go back to the campsite to sleep, where there were warm sleeping bags and windproof tents, but when he thought of the hideous corpse next to the tent, he hesitated.

Besides, the real murderer who killed Qiu Shanbei last night did not show up. If it was really done by a poisonous snake, the camping site might not be safe.

Speaking of poisonous snakes... Zhang Chunliang was surprised to discover something - since coming here, he seemed to have never been bitten by an insect. After staying in this overgrown bush for a whole day, his body was still clean, without a single red spot!

Zhang Chunliang still remembers that someone complained last night that there were too many mosquitoes in the camping site and that they had to spray a lot of insect repellent before they could barely fall asleep. So it was not because there were no insects in this place, but that he seemed to have a really strong insect repellent physique.

He suddenly felt a flash of coldness on the back of his hand. He looked down and saw the huge snake head coming closer and licking him affectionately again.

That's right, the two of them have reconciled. In fact, the python has become more clingy than before.

When Zhang Chunliang was in a daze, a dog's sneaky tail had already wrapped around his legs, trying to trip him when he took a step, making it easier for it to crawl on top.

"I've seen this snake." It was almost impossible to see anything in the dark woods, and a hoarse voice came from a distant corner.

Zhang Chunliang felt dizzy and sleepy. Hearing the topic that interested him, he forced himself to perk up: "Speaking of which, I am a little worried. This python was caught from the tropics. Will it not survive long in the wild environment like ours?"

"...tropical snake?" He Anxin sneered as if he had heard a joke. "None of those ghosts told the truth. This snake was caught from the nearby Mang Mountain. It made a big news at the time and killed many people."

"Mangshan?" Zhang Chunliang frowned and straightened up. It turned out that the python was not an international friendly snake, but a local native?

"Mangshan is cursed. Everyone here knows that the snakes here are so ferocious that they are almost demons. Catching them will bring retribution." He Anxin couldn't see the snake clearly in the distance, but seeing it trying so tamely to please humans, he guessed that it was not a good breed, and he lost interest.

"The locals respectfully call the snakes on Mangshan Mountain immortals. It is said that the closer the snakes live to the depths of Mangshan Mountain, the more noble their bloodline and status."

The python nudged Zhang Chunliang with its head, urging him to take two steps forward. Zhang Chunliang was thinking about He Anxin's words and subconsciously took a step forward - and then he was tripped by the snake's tail that was wrapped around his legs.

The python twisted its body excitedly and wrapped itself around the beast, burying its head in the warm neck that it had coveted for so long.

Zhang Chunliang was so angry that he wanted to hit its head. But his hot body touched the cool and smooth scales, which was a rare cool and comfortable feeling. The python's entanglement was also very appropriate and subtle, which made his tired body, which had been holding on for a day, relax immediately.

So he simply twisted into a comfortable position, leaned his head on the snake's belly, and continued to listen to He Anxin's story.

"They say... the snake king of Mangshan will turn into a dragon when he reaches a certain level of cultivation." He Anxin heard some rustling noises, but he had no desire to explore: "Humans can resist the anger of snakes, but who can withstand the anger of dragons? Therefore, there are many strict laws here that prohibit the capture of pythons."

"So... Gu Changliu said the snake was caught abroad... He didn't want others to know the snake's identity."

"Gu Changliu..." He Anxin's voice had a creepy smile: "I know him, the current patriarch of his family is an avid snake fighting enthusiast... Everyone knows that as long as you send the best fighting snake, you can get the favor of the patriarch..."

He Anxin chuckled: "Gu Changliu was in the limelight a while ago. The snake he sent... was so ferocious, and it made the master very satisfied. He told others that he caught it from somewhere else... But everyone is smart, everyone knows... where the snake came from, they just don't reveal it."

Zhang Chunliang rubbed the scales on his cheek unconsciously, but suddenly felt a sharp pain - the scales here had been cut by a sharp weapon, and the rough cracks were still there.

The big snake came up and licked his face with its tongue, then turned over, revealing its intact side, and motioned for him to come closer.

"If you like it so much, why do you want to... kill it?" Zhang Chunliang lowered his voice, feeling a little depressed.

"Because he...got his comeuppance." He Anxin gloated, "The owner of the house has been staying indoors for half a month. Someone who knows the situation said that he has gone crazy - he dreams of being strangled by snakes every day, and when he wakes up, his body is covered with dark blue marks. The marks are spreading upwards every day and will soon reach his neck. He is suspicious every day, saying that there are snakes in the house. He even vomits suddenly when eating, saying that he has eaten a poisonous snake."

He Anxin suddenly lowered his voice: "I heard that the head of the Gu family is no longer himself...Someone saw the clothes he took off, and there were snake scales on them. When he was emotional, his eyes would become vertical pupils...If the python is not dealt with, he will really be finished."

"I don't understand." Zhang Chunliang pursed his lips and turned his head away from the snake's sticky head. "You said this guy would take revenge on humans, so shouldn't the people he wants to take revenge on the most be Gu Changliu and the others who captured him?"

"How do you know that it didn't retaliate?" He Anxin asked back word by word, as if he was making some kind of prophecy.

Zhang Chunliang was stunned. He straightened his body and tried hard to see the big snake on his body clearly. The serious look in the snake's eyes greatly stimulated the snake's desire to do bad things. It excitedly knocked the grass with its tail and licked Zhang Chunliang's cheek with its evil tongue.

Zhang Chunliang's vigilance and strange feeling disappeared immediately. He took a deep breath, raised his right hand and slapped the dishonest head fiercely. Only then did the big guy stop.

"Just wait, we will go to hell together." He Anxin ignored Zhang Chunliang and talked to himself happily.
