The Path of the Sage

Chapter 280: Fighting snakes

Views:

The sound of Sheku, the holy son of the snake clan, was like the rustling sound of sharpening a knife, which made everyone tremble with fear.

Yan Yukong released his literary power to cover everyone and whispered, "Fang Yun, what do you think?"

Fang Yun immediately said: "The specific method still needs to be discussed, but there are two general directions to deal with She Ku. One is to fight quickly and kill him with a thunderous force. The second is to delay until he becomes careless and his blood and qi are consumed to a certain extent, and then kill him. Since we can easily turn the virtual into the real here, we must make good use of this!"

Kong Delun was surprised when he heard this and asked, "You still have the energy to write poetry? And you have the confidence to write a poem to deal with the Son of the Snake Clan?"

"Although the Holy Son of the Snake Clan is like a fish in water here, he is ultimately a member of the demon clan and is only a demon general. You also know that the problem now is not how to kill him, but how to force him to come. With the talents of the snake clan and this poisonous fog, he is almost immortal." Fang Yun said.

"Yes, there is only one kind of human, but there are thousands of kinds of monsters. Whether it is in the sky, in the water, in the desert or in places like this, there are always monsters that can quickly gain an absolute advantage. But we humans cannot quickly integrate into the environment. We can only adapt slowly. It will take a long time before we can completely occupy the same position as the monsters."

"De Lun, you have fought with She Ku before. Besides being cruel and cunning, what other characteristics does he have?"

"Afraid of death! Yukong is right. There are thousands of kinds of monsters. As you know, snakes are cold-blooded. Even if their blood is boiling, they can stay rational more easily than other monsters. So as long as you don't hit their weak spots, the snake tribe is almost the best and most rational tribe among the monsters."

Fang Yun said helplessly: "Yes. If we were at the Avalanche Slope or the Falling Star Bridge, it would be easy for us to kill the snake, because those places are very cold and the snake tribe is greatly restricted. But here there is no comet cold, and it is full of poisonous fog. It is simply the best hunting ground for the snake tribe!"

"Perhaps this is the way of heaven. The Holy Son of the Snake Clan made the Holy Son of the Demon Clan lose face in the previous few battles, but here, he is the undisputed king. If the Holy Sons of Longling or Langman ask him to hinder us, I'm afraid they won't have to pay much, because Snake Ku likes to hunt human beings!"

"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles. Quickly tell us some typical deeds of She Ku, so that we can have a clearer understanding of him and find ways to deal with him. Even if we don't have the means, we can still find the opportunity."

"good."

So, Kong Delun told the story about the snake withering, and Fang Yun kept interrupting, paying special attention to some details.

At this time, everyone's energy was abundant and the poisonous fog here was very thin, so it was impossible for Snake Ku to attack.

Listening to Kong Delun's story about the withered snake, everyone's brows furrowed even more.

Sun Naiyong sighed and said, "Sometimes I really envy the monsters. For me, the human race, to lead an army, I need to go through years of study and a lot of time to hone my skills, and I have to endure constant failures and setbacks. But the monsters like the snakes are simply geniuses in a niche area. When it comes to commanding a war, I can fight ten snakes at once, but in a small-scale battle, I'm afraid they will make a fool of me. No matter how smart I am, I can't compare to their talent. It's not unfair for you to lose. If you were a soldier, you would still lose but never win."

Fang Yun put down his clothes and wrote down some characteristics of snakes with a brush, such as bloodthirsty, cruel, cautious, cunning, cold-blooded, etc., which are full of contradictory personalities unique to snakes.

Finally, Fang Yun still had two words left to write on the paper.

pride.

Fang Yun knew that as long as he wrote it down, She Ku would find a way to see it no matter how he tried to cover it up, so he let it see what it could see, and completely hid what it could not know.

Fang Yun is using the snake tribe’s hunting methods.

After walking for a quarter of an hour, the poisonous fog ahead suddenly became thicker. Hua Yuqing's medical book obviously couldn't hold up, so he had to retreat. Others used various means to defend themselves, either passively protecting themselves or using the wind to blow away the fog.

After a while, the poisonous fog ahead became thicker and darker in color, and at first glance it looked like dark green clouds.

In the eyes of everyone, they no longer knew where they were in the Sixth Corridor. They could only see fog on all sides and knew that moving forward was the only way out.

Suddenly, a rustling sound was heard and a cold wind blew, making people feel creepy.

Kong Delun immediately shouted, "Attention! This is the snake tribe's insect transformation technique. It uses blood and qi as a medium to transform the poisonous insects into poisonous insects. They can fly through the sky and drill into the ground and penetrate any hole! I have experience. I can freeze the poisonous insects in the ground. I'll leave the rest to you!"

So everyone picked up their pens, looked around, and got ready.

The rustling sound soon turned into a buzzing sound, and then everyone felt a swarm of green poisonous insects rushing towards them, with no blind spots in front, behind, left, right, in the air, or on the ground. Even vibrations could be heard deep underground.

The scorpions on the ground, the poisonous mosquitoes in the sky, the centipedes in the soil, etc. came like a green tide. The scorpions were extremely large, as big as a fist, but the poisonous mosquitoes were extremely small, as small as a needle hole.

But everyone had already heard Kong Delun talk about the strategy for dealing with poisonous insects, and someone immediately recited the fire war poem to burn all the poisonous insects.

However, Fang Yun felt something was wrong, because fire attack was effective in burning real insects, and it was also effective in burning a small number of poisonous insects from magic, but there were too many poisonous insects here, and after being burned by the flames, poisonous smoke was immediately formed.

Fang Yun was about to ask Hua Yuqing, the heir of a family of doctors who knew poison, when Hua Yuqing suddenly shouted, "Don't use fire! Use wind to disperse it immediately, quickly!"

Everyone quickly changed their fighting style, putting away the fire and raising the wind. Wind is not as good at killing insects as fire, but it will not cause poisonous insects to form poisonous smoke.

"As expected of the Holy Son of the Snake Clan, he knew we were good at using fire attacks, so he deliberately dug a big pit for us to jump into. If he hadn't discovered it, and it had been a little later, the poisonous smoke would probably have become his weapon to attack us."

Kong Delun said ashamedly: "I trusted the previous tactics too much. I didn't expect that after not seeing him for a few years, he has become more cunning."

"It's not your fault. If it didn't even have this ability, it wouldn't have stopped us alone. However, it is a snake after all and there is no way it can stop us! When we get close to the exit of the sixth corridor, we will rush over in one go. What can it do to us?" Fang Yun said with a confident smile.

"Fang Yun, do you have a backup plan?"

"Just wait and see! As long as you hold on until the last mile, I have a way to make you rush through with lightning speed!" Fang Yun was full of confidence.

Everyone had suffered a great loss before and were in low spirits, but after hearing what Fang Yun said, all the negative emotions were swept away.

The group continued to move forward, but soon discovered that the poisonous insects in the thick fog were endless and in huge quantities.

Fang Yun didn't believe that She Ku would consume so much energy and blood here. If he continued to consume like this, even if the other party was the Son of God, he would not be able to hold on for more than a quarter of an hour.

Fang Yun's mind moved, and he remembered something Kong Delun had said about snake worms before, and he immediately said, "I'm afraid some of these insects are real and some are fake! Who has a way to identify them?"

"I'll do it!" A book on military affairs immediately appeared in front of Sun Naiyong's chest. Faint starlight was emitted from the book, and the colors of different insects immediately changed significantly.

Less than one in ten bugs are dark green, while a full nine in ten are light green.

"I also felt strange just now and was about to remind you." Zong Wude said, and several of the scholars nodded. They also made some discoveries, but they were not as decisive as Fang Yun.

As soon as Sun Naiyong's military book appeared, the number of subsequent poisonous insects decreased significantly. Everyone secretly sighed that She Ku was not only cunning, but also decisive, without any hesitation.

Next, everyone fought one after another, and either Fang Yun came up with a countermeasure, or others found the flaws in Sheku's attack method and cracked it.

The team moved forward slowly but steadily.

The further they walked, the more confident they became, because the people here were the best of the best of the human race. Even if the gifted and cunning son of the snake race was, he would not be able to gain an absolute advantage under the wisdom of so many people.

Moreover, unlike the demons and barbarians, the human race is a race that is particularly prone to snowballing. Once the human race adapts to a place and takes root, it will reproduce at a speed that the demons and barbarians cannot imagine, and then gain dominance over this area.

The demons are good at adapting to certain environments quickly. Humans adapt slowly, but after a long period of adaptation, they can transform the environment!

Previously, Fang Yun asked Kong Delun to explain the matter of Sheku in detail, which played a huge role. Almost everyone discovered some characteristics of Sheku from it. No matter what means Sheku used to attack, there was always someone who could make a judgment very quickly.

"Haha! Fang Yun, it looks like everything is going well. As long as we reach the last mile, we'll be safe!"

"Don't worry." Fang Yun became more and more confident, and everyone's morale was boosted by Fang Yun's confidence.

"Fang Yun, you have a really good vision! If it weren't for Niu Shan and Quan Xi, we would probably have casualties now." Sun Naiyong praised.

"Their contributions, one demon and one barbarian, are not only not inferior to ours, but may even be better than ours! That She Ku's methods are hard to guard against. If it weren't for the two of them frequently and quickly rescuing me, I would have at least one arm crippled by now." Li Fanming said.

"If we could use the war painting to summon the demon assistant, we wouldn't be afraid at all, but now we can't borrow external forces, thanks to these two."

Not long after, Fang Yun suddenly smiled confidently and said, "It's not far from the door. Its obstruction has failed!"

"Fang Yun, you are a little too arrogant today." Yan Yukong reminded.

The other candidates remained silent. Fang Yun was indeed a little overconfident before, but since it could boost everyone's morale, no one could say anything.

Fang Yun laughed and said, "Stop! Who of you can find out the main situation around you? Don't be afraid of wasting your energy!"

Everyone was stunned and vaguely guessed a possibility.

"This kind of thing should naturally be left to us military strategists! My military book can be put to good use!" Several pages of the military book floating in front of Sun Naiyong's chest were completely burned, and then turned into several streams of light and flew out in all directions.

After a moment, Sun Naiyong's face changed drastically, and he said, "Not good! There is a poisonous bloodworm nest in front, and more than a dozen demon barbarians are following behind! No, it's great! The poisonous bloodworm nest is too far away from us, retreat immediately, the insect nest can't do anything to us! I understand! Sheku has many ways to obstruct us, but there are only a few possibilities to keep us here completely. You repeatedly said that you can rush over and deliberately despise him, which is to force him to use several powerful but obviously flawed methods such as the poisonous bloodworm nest."
