Black Myth: Tang Dynasty

Chapter 6 Barren Mountain Ancient Village
The moment this man appeared, Li Daoxuan felt a chill on his back, and goosebumps all over his body.

The flames seemed to have cooled and lost their heat.

He noticed that the white-faced young man was wearing fancy clothes, and in this barren mountains and mountains, the white shoes under his feet were not even a little dusty.

The man in Chinese clothes sat beside the fire, and the originally stable flame began to dance, and the fire suddenly became much smaller.

Li Daoxuan tensed up all over.

The man in Chinese clothes reached out to take the roast chicken in Li Daoxuan's hand, stretched out his neck and smelled it, showing a hint of intoxication, and then...

Li Daoxuan saw an extremely terrifying scene.

I saw that the man's mouth kept opening wide, even the nose was split open and turned into a mouth, the whole mouth became the size of a bucket, and he swallowed the roast chicken whole.

He didn't chew, just swallowed it like that, the stretched throat was as thick as an elephant's leg, Li Daoxuan really doubted whether it would be burst.

But in fact, the man in the fancy dress swallowed it very easily. He licked his tongue and said, "Not bad workmanship, but..."

He stared at Li Daoxuan, suddenly there was a loud noise all around, it was the sound of rattlesnake shaking its tail, and it was also a signal of attack.

The pupils of the man in the Chinese costume turned blood red, and he said word by word, "Why did you kill my fifth brother?"

Li Daoxuan swallowed his saliva, and said: "Well, you must not be full, how about I catch another chicken for you?"

The man in Chinese clothes sneered and didn't answer.

Li Daoxuan's heart sank, and he said angrily: "You snake monster, you are really deceiving people too much, do you really think I can't kill you?"

After finishing speaking, Li Daoxuan pinched the five thunder talisman with his hand, forming a thunder mark.

A dark cloud quickly floated in the sky.

The pupils of the snake demon froze, and Taoist priests who could trigger thunder from the sky should not be underestimated!
But the next moment...

Li Daoxuan turned around quickly, stomped his footsteps, and moved with a shrunken air, his body was already floating away in a flash, and his movements were done in one go, very skillful.

The snake demon was stunned for a moment.

This Taoist who was able to kill his fifth younger brother and trigger thunder from the sky, unexpectedly... escaped?

……

Under the moonlight, Li Daoxuan's body was like a ghost, and he could walk several feet away with one step. No matter whether it was a steep mountain wall or a thorny thorn, nothing could stop his footsteps.

With such a speed, ordinary people would be astonished and regarded as a god when they see it, but at this moment, this god is panicked and sweating profusely.

Li Daoxuan really couldn't figure it out, how did this snake demon chase after him?

Could it be that someone from Xiaosha Village informed them?

That's not right, the people in Xiaosha Village don't know where he is going!

He didn't think that he could defeat this terrifying snake monster now, because the higher the level of the monster, the more it resembles a human.

Like Bat Demon, who can walk upright and has a human silhouette on his face, it is already very powerful, and Li Daoxuan almost couldn't cope with it.

And this snake demon, not only looks almost the same as a human, but can also talk and communicate clearly, which is simply terrifying.

His Taoism is far from being comparable to that of the Bat Demon.

The only way out is to escape!
Li Daoxuan didn't know how long he had been running, but he caught a glimpse of a small cave out of the corner of his eye, and immediately hid in it, curled up, and tried to hold his breath.

Not long after, the rattling sound appeared again, and the sound of a python crawling came from outside.

Li Daoxuan's heart suddenly rose, he quietly poked out his sight and took a glance.

I saw a person walking slowly in the mountains, it was the man in the fine clothes, but what was frightening was that his feet had turned into snake tails, making noises as he walked.

"When I was not in human form, I liked to play a game."

The snake demon spoke outside.

"When I catch a mouse, I won't kill it right away, but let it go. I will be more excited when I see it struggling and panicking."

"Later, I caught it again. The little mouse begged me to be my subordinate. Looking at its frightened eyes, I suddenly felt compassion."

He was getting closer and closer to the cave where Li Daoxuan was hiding, and he spat out scarlet snake letters again and again, obviously very excited.

"I guess you will think, I let the mouse go, hehe, in fact, I swallowed it in one gulp, and I made it a part of my body. This is my greatest gift to him."

When he saw the small cave, a ferocious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"So, little mouse, would you like to be a part of me?"

After saying that, he rushed into the cave suddenly, his whole body turned into a snake, which was nearly ten feet long, and opened his bloody mouth...

The cave was empty, only the smell of Li Daoxuan still lingered for a long time.

……

The starlight tonight was already dim, coupled with the lush vegetation in the mountains, Li Daoxuan was almost completely in the dark while running.

Fortunately, after pouring mana into his eyes, he could barely see clearly.

He didn't know how long he ran, his body was dripping with sweat, and his heart was beating like a drum.

Continuously running Shudi Shenxing, more than half of his mana has been consumed, but Li Daoxuan has an intuition that he still hasn't shaken off the snake demon!
In a trance, it seems that I can still hear the sound of the snake demon crawling and the sound of its tail.

A trace of despair emerged in Li Daoxuan's heart, and at the same time there was an urge to stop and fight to the death.

The snake demon seems to have a way to track his location. Since he can't escape, he might as well fight with his back.

At least it would be a little more dignified to die.

Just when Li Daoxuan was hesitating whether to continue running away, suddenly he saw a light in the distance.

How can there be lights in the mountains?

But he couldn't control that much anymore, and subconsciously ran towards the direction of the light. After about a moment, the light became brighter and brighter. It was a dark red light, as sticky as blood.

Pushing through the grass and branches, Li Daoxuan saw a narrow path leading to a dark village.

The village was shrouded in a layer of mist, and the red light that attracted Li Daoxuan before shone through the mist.

How could such a village suddenly appear in the barren mountains?
And no matter how weird it looked, there was an inexplicable gloomy atmosphere.

Li Daoxuan was in a dilemma immediately, but when the sound of rattlesnakes faintly appeared behind him, he gritted his teeth and chose to step on the narrow path and run towards the village.

There is no doubt that you will die if you fight with the snake demon, so why not go ahead and gamble!
Li Daoxuan stepped into the narrow path, and his figure was soon shrouded in mist and disappeared without a trace.

……

After a while, the snake demon also chased here, looking at the village shrouded in mist, a trace of fear appeared in his eyes.

After wandering for a long time, he still did not enter the village.

Turning into a man in Chinese clothes again, he snorted coldly, and said, "Accidentally, I let you run into that territory. It's a pity that I didn't get to taste the taste of a Taoist priest myself."

"Hehe, if you enter that territory, you little mouse will only die more embarrassingly!"
