Demon King and Concubine

Chapter 407 Going Further (1)
Amidst the billowing black smoke, there was a smell of barbecue, which then turned into a bitter and burnt smell.

Duanmutian approached there, and saw that surrounded by flames and black smoke, the little green snakes that attacked them and chased them just now were entangled and twisted into balls, rolling and struggling in the fire, but shrinking into a ball in the fire , entangled together and unable to escape.

Duanmutian couldn't help but change his expression in that horrible, purgatory-like scene, and asked Jun Xiuran in shock, what exactly did he do!
He quickly stretched out his hand and turned her back, preventing her from continuing to "appreciate" that scene, in his opinion, was a pleasing sight. His hand lightly passed over her shoulder, something flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled. He said: "I just tried the snake medicine provided by Yemu. He said that the medicine can attract any snake just by lighting it. I tried it just now, and I really gave up chasing it. I aimed at that thing." Go, I just rounded them up as they huddled together, and set a fire."

He spoke so easily, as if he really just lit a fire and burned two or three ants with ease, rather than such a momentary, near-genocide slaughter.

Hearing what he said, Duanmutian couldn't help taking another breath, and turned his head to look at the flames rising from the black smoke, as well as the twisted hideousness in it, closed his eyes, and opened them again, but it was already a blur. Qing Leng said: "Be careful of the fire spreading!"

"You can rest assured that it will only burn in this circle and will not spread out."

He looked over there, his eyes flickering, coldly.

If you dare to hurt my woman, I will destroy your clan!
Duanmu Tian quickly looked back, pulled him back and walked away, saying: "Don't waste your time here, such a strong smell will definitely attract other things."

A figure flashed in front of him, and then suddenly it was on his back, striding forward with her on his back.

"Put me down."

"You are injured, you should rest more."

"I hurt my shoulder, not my leg."

"Same." He paused and asked, "Is the snake venom very powerful?"

"Compared to you, it's far behind."

He couldn't help chuckling, but he didn't mean to let her go, he just went forward and said, "About fifteen miles ahead, we have to turn around and enter the dark jungle."

"Ok!"

She leaned on his back, but she didn't insist on getting down and walking on her own. She just closed her eyes and rested her mind, slowly recovering the wasted physical strength and inner breath just now.

Not long after they left, something came out of the forest with the sound of rustling, and headed towards the thick smoke of the flame that gave off a strange smell.

Of course, the matter here has nothing to do with the couple who have already left, but the thick smoke rising here has attracted the attention of those people in another place.

"Your Highness, look over there, it doesn't seem to be very far from us, and it's also by the river."

"Get there so soon?"

"Maybe it's not the same group of people."

"This ghostly place where no one would come in in the past, how come there are two groups of people besides us today by such a coincidence?"

"I think the people nearby will still come in often."

"They only dare to move around the edge, and never dare to run inside!"

"Maybe I got lost and walked in the wrong way."

"You think everyone is as stupid as you?"

"What did you say?"

These two people talked as if they were going to quarrel again, and the others quickly dissuaded them, and asked their master, "Your Highness, why don't we go over there and have a look?"

Jun Xiushan looked over there and pondered, then shook his head and said, "No, even if someone does come in, it has nothing to do with us. Don't worry about it, just strengthen your guard."

"Yes!"

This time, the black line disappeared quickly, as if it was extinguished by something, and it seemed that the burning thing disappeared quickly, or was burned or dragged away by something.

Jun Xiuran walked upstream with Tian Tian on his back, and turned around to take a look in the direction behind him. At that time, the black smoke had faded, and there were almost no traces.

Sure enough, strange things were attracted there, but they also eat such poisonous things, it really is a ghostly place full of monsters!

Although he walked up along the river, he didn't get too close to the river bank. It was the two creatures he saw at the beginning that made him quite scared. God knows what other strange things will be in the river. He didn't want to get a clear and thorough understanding of the bottom of the river out of curiosity.

According to what the mother and concubine said, after they passed the waterfall and continued to go up for about fifteen miles, they had to turn into the jungle again. Although he didn't have a taxi meter, he still knew the approximate distance traveled. When he was about fifteen miles ahead, he stopped suddenly.

"what happened?"

Duanmu Tian raised her head from his shoulders, subconsciously looked around, everything was calm, nothing strange appeared, and she didn't feel any uneasiness.

Then why did it stop suddenly?

He put her down from his back, and said: "Going forward, we will enter the jungle again. It is almost evening, why not spend the night by the river and enter the jungle tomorrow."

Although there are some strange things growing in this river, they are still in the river anyway, they just need to stay a little far away and they will be fine. As for the reptiles that occasionally appear on the grass by the bank, some of them are not harmful , some harmful ones are much better than those in the dangerous jungle, and Tian Tian was bitten by the green snake just now, so I don't know if there is any damage.

Hearing what he said, Duanmu Tian couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay."

She felt that she didn't need to rest yet, but she just entered the jungle today, and she shouldn't be too impatient and fast, so she calmed down for a while, especially for Jun Xiuran, who had never been to such a place before. Her understanding is only limited to listening and hearing, and it is still not exhaustive. It is better for her to tell him some things related to this while taking a break.

She went to the river to check it carefully, then checked it carefully on the bank, then ran to the grassland and the edge of the jungle to check it, and then she couldn't help feeling that the place Jun Xiuran chose to stop was really good.

Just as she was looking around, Jun Xiuran picked up branches and put up her undried clothes. Although there was no direct sunlight, there was forest wind blowing.

What a virtuous man.
