As they were unable to sleep, they chatted all night. At dawn, they got ready to leave and had planned to get away from this place.
However, as they were just about to leave on their flying swords, a giant snake appeared out of nowhere about ten metres away in front of them. The snake raised its head and spat out venom.
“Ah! Snake!”
Ning Lang exclaimed in shock. The shouts broke the tranquility in the forest and everyone was vigilant at once.
“Is this the snake you were talking about?” Duan Ye looked at Feng Jiu and asked.
“Why did the snake follow you?” Song Ming asked curiously.
“But when did the snake get here? We didn’t even notice. ” Luo Fei looked surprised. If the snake had attacked them without them knowing, then….
Feng Jiu also found it strange that the snake hadn’t attacked them yet. The snake was ten metres away and hadn’t even made a sound, they were too careless.
“Hiss!”
When the snake saw Feng Jiu looking at it, it made a loud hissing sound and wriggled its body forwards.
“Let’s go! The snake is highly venomous.” Feng Jiu signalled them to raise their flying swords higher up in the air to avoid the snake.
They stepped up on their swords and rose up to mid air and waited for her. Feng Jiu was on her flying feather and getting ready to leave when the snake rushed forwards violently and slammed its tail on the ground. Its mouth spat out some things soon after.
There were cosmos sacks, jade pendants, short daggers and some shiny treasures. There were large and small items all cluttered in a pile.. The snake arched its head and looked at Feng Jiu making a hissing sound.
“Wow! These are all valuable things!” Ning Lang’s eyes lit up. He looked at Feng Jiu and asked: “Is it giving you these things?”
Duan Ye and the rest also looked at Feng Jiu. A snake actually spat all these things out of its mouth to give to Feng Jiu? How strange.
Feng Jiu was also stunned: “I don’t know either! Last time it brought with it lots of small snakes and chased after me! However, it looks like there is just this one snake around here this time. The cosmos sack and other items probably belonged to the people it ate. As for why its giving them to me, I don’t know why yet.”
“Then shall we go down to get it?” Ning Lang suggested.
“Go down? Are you not afraid of being swallowed by the snake?” Luo Fei glanced at him and asked.
“It probably won’t happen will it? It doesn’t look like it wants to hurt us. And look! That’s a small hill’s worth of treasures. There’s so many things, I’m sure there will be even more inside the cosmos sacks! We can’t not take them!”
Upon seeing this, Feng Jiu sat on her flying feather and lowered herself slightly. She looked at the snake and asked: “Is this for me?”
“Hiss!”
The giant snake made a hissing sound, as if it understood what Feng Jiu had said, and nodded.
Of course, sacred beasts had their minds opened so it was normal they could understand.
“Really for me?”
She was a little surprised and asked again. She had moved that spirit fruit tree into space and this snake had wanted to eat her for a long time. Why was it so kind suddenly?
“Hiss!”
The snake nodded again. In order to show its sincerity, the snake lowered its head and backed away whilst staring at Feng Jiu.
