Before he traveled a hundred miles to Huacheng, Fang Yan gave him three words: Be careful! Be careful! Be careful!
Fang Yan was stirring up trouble in Yanjing and manipulating the situation. But friends still needed to be saved, and Fang Yingxiong and Fang Haohan's search finally yielded some clues. Fang Yan himself was too busy to handle the situation, so he asked Baili Lu to come over first to help with the affairs here.
Fang Yan once talked about Jiangjunling with Baili Lu, and his evaluation of him was: he was of above average appearance, with no limits in what he did and how he behaved.
Baili Lu thought for several seconds and finally understood the subtext of Fang Yan's words: This is a smart bastard.
Baili Lu is not afraid of bastards, no matter how bad they are, they can't beat his Baili Magic Fist. But he is afraid of smart people. Smart people are much scarier than bastards.
When he saw the general's order to applaud, he knew he was about to use his ultimate move. Isn't that how it's played out in TV and movies
Sure enough, when General Ling revealed his trump card, he immediately killed one of his generals. Fang Shede was the general who really held the real power. The thousands of troops under his command, and the hundreds of thousands of poisonous snakes, were the key to their victory. If the Snake King surrendered, they would be in an unfavorable situation again.
"Sister----" the Snake King screamed miserably. Even though he had already decided to sever ties and cut off the past, when he saw his sister being tortured and even had one of her eyes gouged out, he felt like a hundred worms were gnawing at his heart, and he was still in agony.
Hearing the Snake King's voice, the woman in black finally raised her head and looked over.
One of her eyes was empty, and the other eye was covered by messy hair, cloudy brown and yellow, and full of bloodshot, making her look like a horrible monster.
"Brother-----" She called out hoarsely. Her voice was dry and it sounded like she hadn't spoken for a long time.
Before he could even shout out the word "brother", his only remaining eye socket was already filled with tears, which rolled down in big drops.
"Are you okay?" Seeing his sister's expression, Snake King felt even more uncomfortable. She called him 'brother' again, and she acknowledged their relationship again.
In that dark and hopeless childhood, they were the only light in each other's eyes. In the freezing winter in the mountains, their two little bodies clung to each other for warmth. They faced death together, and also took on the challenges of various poisonous snakes - one became the Snake King, and the other became the Snake King's sister.
They are two human-shaped monsters, two poisonous snakes that can speak human language.
But how can they like humans? In the eyes of humans, they are just monsters and venomous snakes.
"Brother-----" the woman in black called out again, her voice sounding even more miserable, and she was sobbing.
The Snake King stared at the General Order fiercely and said, "Let her go."
"It seems that you two know each other." General Ling played with the small silver box in his hand and said with a smile: "Only in this way can this game become fun-----"
General Ling held up the small box in his hand to the Snake King and asked, "You should know what this is, right?"
"------" Snake King knew, but he was unwilling to answer. Because the answer to this question was too cruel for them.
"This is your sister's eye, also known as the Snake's Eye." General Ling placed the silver box under the sun and looked up at it carefully, saying, "It is said that if you control the Snake's Eye, you can control the fate of a snake slave. Oh, you call yourself the Snake King. None of this matters, you can call yourself anything. I have never believed in this saying, and I think it is mostly fabricated. How about we use this eye to do an experiment today?"
"Don't hurt her." The Snake King shouted urgently.
"Hmm?" General Ling looked at the Snake King seriously and said, "It seems that the rumors are true. But why shouldn't I hurt her? You can hurt me, so why can't I hurt her? You are not my friend, right? If you are willing to be my friend, then I will take the initiative to give you this eye-----"
"Don't listen to his lies." Baili Lu quickly spoke out to stop him. He didn't know the Snake King very well, and didn't know what kind of character he had. Although Fang Yan told him to believe him, but if he was instigated by the general's order, and these poisonous snakes turned around and became weapons against them, it would be too late to cry. "Fang Shede, don't listen to his lies. How did they use your sister in the past? What was the result? How did they treat your sister after she was no longer useful? If you stand on his side today, you will soon end up like your sister - not only will you not be able to save your sister, but you will also get yourself involved-----"
"I understand." The Snake King glanced at Baili Lu and hissed, "I understand. I understand what kind of people they are, and I know what they want to do. In their eyes, we are just toys that they can manipulate. That's how my master died. That's how my master's master died. They know the abilities of us snake breeders, so they secretly sent people to Xiangxi to look for us. They never treated us as human beings. Except for Fang Yan, no one treated us as human beings."
"------" Baili Lu was speechless. He had always had a strong feeling of rejection towards the Snake King. He always felt that this person was very "dirty" and "poisonous", and was different from the warriors who practiced martial arts and asked questions in an upright manner. They took a side path, and according to the martial arts novels, they belonged to the "evil way" and were to be eradicated by righteous people.
Unexpectedly, Fang Shede knew all of this, but he never showed any abnormality. Perhaps in his heart, it was enough to have Fang Yan's approval.
"But, she is my sister - I can't help but save her -" the Snake King said in a firm voice.
"What a deep brother-sister relationship. This kind of brother is so touching." Jiangjun Ling said with a smile. "You are an expert in raising snakes. You know how to save your sister. As long as you do it, I will return the Snake Eye to you. And let you take your sister away. We will never see each other again."
"Fang Shede, think it over carefully--" Baili Lu's expression was stern, and his eyes exuded a terrifying light. If they were bitten by this venomous snake today, their side might be completely destroyed.
"Fang Shede, how could you do this? Have you forgotten what your junior uncle treated you?" Fang Yingxiong shouted.
"You traitor - snakes are snakes, they can never be as loyal and strong as humans -" Fang Haohan hated this kind of mean behavior. How can you betray someone just by saying so
The Snake King's eyes were filled with extreme pain, and the dry and yellow muscles on his face kept twitching.
His body slowly fell down, his eyes looking at his sister who was sitting on the ground, and a hissing sound came out of his mouth.
The Snake King's sister was also lying there, making the same hissing sound from her mouth.
Their movements and sounds were like snakes. At first glance, it looked like two human-shaped snakes were talking in snake language.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss-----" Big tears filled the Snake King's eyes.
"Hiss----hiss-----" Snake King's sister nodded to her brother, tears also flowing from her surviving eye.
"Hiss-----" The snake king made a very sharp sound.
"Hiss-----" Snake King's sister responded with the same sharp voice.
The Snake King looked at his sister with gentle and loving eyes, and a buzzing sound came from his mouth.
A fiery red scorpion crawled out from the snake king's body.
The scorpion shook its head as if it had just woken up.
Snake King's sister showed a happy smile on her face, as if the red fire scorpion was a good friend she hadn't seen for many years.
She stretched out her hand to the Fire Scorpion. The Fire Scorpion looked at the Snake King and quickly crawled towards the Snake King's sister. Then he jumped and stood in the palm of the Snake King's sister's hand.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss-----" Snake King's sister was saying something to the Fire Scorpion.
The fire scorpion made a chirping sound and its body retreated, as if it knew something horrible.
Snake King's sister grabbed the fire scorpion tightly, and then stuffed its head - and its entire body - into her mouth.
Chirp-----
The fire scorpion's tail was swinging desperately, and it used its poisonous needle to hit the snake king's sister's cheeks and other parts of her body.
Snake King's sister looked at Snake King with joy and reluctance to part forever on her face.
"Click-----"
A crisp sound was heard.
The fire scorpion's tail flapped more violently, and then it lifted up high, staying in that position, unable to be put down again.
There was a look of pain on the face of the Snake King's sister, and deep red scorpion blood flowed from the corners of her mouth.
“Crack, crack—”
She chewed hard, then rolled the whole fire scorpion into her mouth and swallowed it.
Gudong----
There was a squirming sensation in her throat, and then her body swelled up like an inflated balloon.
Snap Snap----
A sound like popping beans came from her body, and the blood in her body seemed to be boiling. Blood flowed from all her orifices, and the blood that flowed out was steaming and foaming.
"Brother--------" Snake Lord's sister collapsed to the ground, her weak eyes still clinging to her brother. She hated this world, but she loved her brother. She thought she had lost him forever, but she didn't expect to see him again before she died. This was really------the happiest thing in her life. "I saw-------Master-----" (To be continued)
