Is the Corpse King playing tricks on us
As soon as this idea came out of my mind, the hook snake facing Li Binning suddenly stopped.
not good!
I didn't have time to think about anything, and I kicked Li Binning in the hip unexpectedly.
Li Binning, who was concentrating on guarding against the hook snake, did not expect that I would suddenly kick her, and she was immediately kicked more than two meters away. Before Li Binning stood up inexplicably, a snake tail with a hook suddenly shot out from the iron door, and the hook body as sharp as a knife hung just on the seat where Li Binning was just now.
The hook snake missed the blow and did not withdraw its tail hook. After the hook suspended in the air for a moment, it silently rolled up a burst of aroma that made people's fingers tingle.
I just smelled the fragrance, but a burning hunger arose in my stomach. I wanted to rush forward, hug the tail hook with the purple light swimming, and bite it hard twice.
After I unconsciously took a step towards the hook snake, I heard the sound of someone swallowing saliva - it was Li Binning. Not only was she staring at the snake and swallowing, her eyes were still looking at me. She swept her body randomly, as if she was afraid that I would suddenly pounce on the tail hook and steal her food.
Oops!
Although I was unbearably hungry, I had not completely lost my mind. Li Binning had already fallen into an unconscious state, like a fish that has seen bait. Apart from the tempting bait, there was no concept of danger in his mind. The only thought was Swallow the bait quickly, even if it takes a moment, your intestines will be torn to pieces.
The moment I looked at Li Binning, the latter suddenly lunged towards the snake hook.
"Stop!" I yelled angrily, punching out both fists directly at the opponent's ribs.
I almost couldn't control the crazy hunger. Even though I knew in my heart that I was trying to prevent Li Binning from "taking the bait", the fist wind carried murderous intent and penetrated Li Binning's ribs. When I realized that I had lost control, it was already too late to pull back my fist. The strong wind from my fist had already moved Li Binning's clothes.
At the critical moment, Li Binning, who seemed to have lost her will, regained her instincts between life and death. She retreated and raised her palm to seal my fist. The explosion of punches and palms colliding in the air shook the chamber. After Li Binning and I each took three steps back, she didn't even stop for a moment, and jumped towards the snake's tail again.
"Go back!" I simply turned my back to Snake Tail and punched Li Binning continuously. The latter's palms were flying and he attacked me continuously, refusing to give in at all.
There were a series of explosions as the fists collided, but the poisonous tail of the hook snake hung in the air without moving at all. The Corpse King sneered repeatedly through the cell door, and the whole secret room became extremely chaotic.
When Li Bingning and I were having a hard time separating each other, I heard someone shouting from behind: "Commander, what are you doing..."
Oops! When the detectives saw me fighting with Li Binning, their first reaction was definitely not to stop Li Binning...
When I turned around suddenly, I saw the detective hand staring at the poisonous tail of the hook snake and licking his lips, moving forward step by step with his two feet.
"Stop!" As soon as I shouted to the man, Li Binning's leg wind swept towards my ankle. I felt a sharp pain in my feet, and I flew into the air and fell sideways to the ground.
If Li Binning wanted to kill me, all he had to do was take one step forward, and he would be able to kill me with one blow, whether with his legs or his palms. Li Binning didn't even look at me, she raised her legs and stepped over me.
Her only target is the poisonous hook on the snake's tail. How can she not be anxious if someone wants to snatch her food? In order to grab food, she even forgot that there was an opponent lying on the ground who had not lost her fighting ability.
As soon as my shoulders touched the ground, I reached out and grabbed Li Binning's ankles and lifted her up into the air. I didn't wait for the other person to land, so I sat up first, held Li Binning's legs with both hands, and rolled away with my arms around him.
Not far after the two of us rolled out, we heard a loud "puff" sound in the distance, and thick blood instantly filled the secret room.
Li Binning, who had become a little crazy, calmed down. I pressed Li Binning tightly, and when I looked up at Hook Snake, the probing hand had been pierced through the chest by Hook Snake with its poisonous hook, and was lifted into the air.
The Detective Hand, who was still breathing for a while, seemed not to know that a fatal hook had penetrated his chest, and was still trying desperately to bite the poisonous hook.
The tail hook dripping with blood only stayed in the air for a moment, and then suddenly retracted into the cell. The detective hand that was still alive hit the iron bars of the cell with a bang, and was blocked outside the door.
Soon there was a sound of bones breaking from the cell door - the hook snake tried desperately to drag its prey into the cell, but the gap in the cell door was too small and could not accommodate a corpse in or out. The corpse's shoulders were blocked between two iron bars and gradually shattered and deformed, while the sound of the corpse being torn apart by brute force came in waves.
I pushed away Li Binning who was no longer struggling, drew my sword and stood up, held my breath and rushed to the door of the cell. I swept the upper and lower swords across the iron bars of the cell door. Five or six iron pillars were immediately cut off by me. The hooked snake in the prison dragged its prey into the door.
It wasn't until the sound of the hook snake swallowing the corpse resounded in the cell that Li Binning came back to his senses.
I looked at Li Bingning and said, "Sorry, I underestimated Hook Snake's ability."
Li Binning shook his head and said: "Life and death are fateful. In Tanshen Jianghu, wrong judgment is actually a kind of luck. No one can guarantee that his judgment is completely accurate."
I wanted to say something more, but I saw the Corpse King looking towards me from across the cell. Although the other party's eyes were full of innocence, he couldn't control the smile on his lips.
I took a few steps forward with my hands behind my back: "You think you've got me, right?"
The Corpse King showed a half-smiling expression, as if it wanted to wait to see how furious I would be before begging it to cooperate with me.
I looked at the Corpse King with a smile: "What I said is that I like to trade with smart people, but I really don't like people who are clever. Sometimes, the greater the price you make me pay, the more I make you pay. The bigger it gets.”
As I spoke, I took out the golden wolf mask and put it on my face. The moment the Corpse King saw the mask, he couldn't help but be slightly startled. Judging from its expression, it must have seen something similar.
The mask is indeed one of the necessary magical tools for witchcraft. The mask on the wizard's face can, on the one hand, maintain their mystery, and on the other hand, it can represent that he is communicating with the gods. The person who drew the blood of the Corpse Queen back then was a wizard, so it was impossible for it to have seen something similar.
The moment I put on the mask, two red lights flashed in my eyes. When the Corpse King instinctively wanted to turn the blood-eyed vortex, I suddenly turned around and looked in the direction of Hook Snake. I turned my back to the Corpse King and walked towards the cell door step by step, and the hook snake's huge head was lifted from the door.
The trembling snake letter spat out to me again, but I took a step closer to the other person's trembling letter, letting the other person's forked tongue sweep across my mask. The other party only made contact with me for a moment and then stepped back. He stood in the cell door with his head held high and faced me.
My eyes were fixed on the hook snake in the cell, but my ears were always paying attention to the movement of the corpse king.
So far, I don't know what the golden mask does, let alone using the mask to communicate with things other than people. The Corpse King doesn't know this. It only knows that someone wearing a witch mask is facing the Hook Snake.
As expected, the Corpse King panicked, slammed against the cell door, and looked behind me.
However, a moment later, the sound of the door coming from behind me disappeared in a flash, and the corpse king's cell returned to calm again.
The Corpse King still doesn't believe that I can communicate with Hook Snake.
The corpse king was too hasty when he threw himself at the cell door just now, and I was too calm.
It wanted to test whether I was bluffing by banging on the door; I didn't move, just to make it believe that I was not bluffing.
I dared to stand over because I was betting that the hooked snake had worse perception of the outside world than other snakes.
Snakes have very poor vision and hearing, and most rely on smell to identify the location of prey.
The eyeballs of the hooked snake are covered with a layer of white flowers. It must be blind. As for the hearing, I don't think it is sensitive. Otherwise, after I come down from the stairs, the first person to raise its head would be the hooked snake, not the hooked snake. Luo Qianqian.
After I saw the hook snake, it raised its head three times to spit out messages. I always thought that its sense of taste was sensitive enough to distinguish the smell in the air, but I later discovered that this was not the case at all.
During the confrontation between Hook Snake and Li Binning, Hook Snake kept spitting out snake letters, as if he was targeting Li Binning's position, but after I kicked her down, Hook Snake could no longer find his target. In fact, all it had to do was move its poisonous hook a meter or two, and both Li Binning and I would be exposed to its attack range.
But what did the hook snake do? All it does is stick out its poisonous hook and wait for its prey to take the bait.
In a sense, once the Creator makes a certain ability of a certain creature particularly prominent, He will definitely take away the other advantages of that creature. The Creator never creates perfect creatures. Since he gave Hook Snake the ability to fish, he would definitely take away Hook Snake's other senses. Otherwise, wouldn't Hook Snake be invincible
What I am betting on is whether my current judgment is right or wrong. Deliberately not avoiding the hook snake's tongue, just to let it lick the golden mask.
The golden mask is something I don't use often, and it doesn't have any scent on me. The hook snake licked from the mask to my chest, and it must have felt two smells. I bet it would be confused by this.
As expected, the hook snake stopped.
My bet now is what the hook snake's next move will be.
I only confronted the hook snake for two or three seconds, and then I saw a poisonous hook with a flowing purple halo gradually raised behind it - the hook snake was indeed about to start hunting.
But not only can I not move around now, I also have to show that I am trying my best to convince Hook Snake, otherwise, I will not be able to deceive the cunning Corpse King.
I watched the poisonous tail of the hook snake rise higher and higher, and I couldn't help but a trace of cold sweat broke out on my forehead.
