Chapter 149: Damn, this python’s scales are so hard?
An Yi stopped and listened to the loud noise coming from afar, and couldn't help frowning.
He listened carefully, trying to figure out what the sound was, but due to the distance, he could only hear a noisy roar.
"Master An, what's going on?" a secret guard couldn't help but ask.
An Yi narrowed his eyes, his gaze was as sharp as an eagle. He stared into the distance and said thoughtfully: "Let's go and look in the direction of the loud noise. You go to both sides." After that, he led a group of secret guards into action immediately.
In this vast mountain wilderness, Murong Zixi and his companions had been running tirelessly for a long time.
They ran forward through the dense woods and over the rugged mountain roads.
Only when they were sure that there were no wolves following them did they dare to stop their hurried steps in a quiet valley.
Murong Zixi's knees went weak and she sat down on the ground, gasping for breath. Sweat dripped down her forehead and soaked her clothes.
She felt her heartbeat was so violent that it seemed to jump out of her chest. Her chest felt stuffy, as if something was blocking it. She sighed inwardly, thinking that her body was too weak to withstand such high-intensity exercise.
Yu Size stood aside, looking at Murong Zixi with concern, his eyes full of worry.
She was well aware of her master's physical condition and knew that she needed time to recover her strength.
So, she quickly walked to Murong Zixi, half-knelt beside her, carefully helped her up, and let her lean against a big tree to rest.
Then, she quickly took out a small cloth bag from her arms, gently opened it, revealing a row of silver needles inside.
"Master, I will give you acupuncture to relieve your fatigue."
Murong Zixi nodded slightly. She trusted Yu Si's medical skills and acupuncture techniques.
Yu Si skillfully picked up a silver needle and gently inserted it into the acupuncture point on Murong Zixi's body, then gently rotated the silver needle to stimulate the acupuncture point.
Yu San looked around vigilantly, her eyes as sharp as an eagle, not missing any slight movement.
However, at this critical moment, a giant python suddenly appeared, staring at them coldly with its scarlet eyes. Obviously, it was not a good creature.
Yu San immediately became nervous. She asked anxiously, "Yu Si, how long will it take you?"
"One stick of incense's time." Yu Si answered without raising his head, the silver needle in his hand still steadily inserted into Murong Zixi's acupuncture point.
"Okay, I'll try my best to buy you some time." Yu San said, and then he leaped towards the giant python, trying to lead it away to prevent the fight from affecting Murong Zixi who was receiving acupuncture.
"Xiao Bai, you go and help too!"
Upon hearing this, Xiaobai immediately rushed out like an arrow.
Yu Si's palms began to sweat, but her gaze remained firm and the silver needle in her hand did not tremble at all.
Yu San had a fierce battle with the giant python.
She was agile, moving between the giant python's attacks like a ghost, jumping, rolling, and dodging, her movements were smooth and flawless. The giant python opened its bloody mouth, spitting out its bloody red tongue, and continuously attacked Yu San.
Xiaobai also joined the battle. It flexibly shuttled around the giant python's body and launched sneak attacks on it from time to time.
Although the python was huge, Xiaobai was so fast that it was overwhelmed.
Yu Si was concentrating on giving acupuncture to Murong Zixi.
Her technique was skillful and precise, and each needle was inserted into the acupuncture point accurately.
As the silver needle penetrated, Murong Zixi's complexion gradually regained its rosy complexion and her breathing became steady.
But Yu Si knew that he could not take it lightly now and had to complete the acupuncture as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
As time passed, Yu San gradually felt exhausted.
Her forehead was covered with sweat and her breathing became heavier.
But she did not dare to relax at all and still fought tenaciously with the giant python. After a hard battle, Yu San successfully led the giant python away from where Murong Zixi was.
At the same time, Yu Si also completed the last stitch. She gently wiped the sweat from her forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.
A stick of incense passed in a flash, and when the last silver needle was pulled out, Murong Zixi had recovered some strength.
She stood up and said, "Come on, let's go help Yu San."
Yu Si looked at her worriedly, "Master, you are still very weak. It is dangerous over there. Please find a secluded place to hide. I will go to help Yu San."
Murong Zixi shook her head to refuse.
Seeing that Murong Zixi was so persistent, Yu Si stopped trying to persuade her and followed her closely. The two of them walked towards the direction where Yu San was.
However, before they had gone far, they saw Yu San running back with injuries all over his body, followed by Xiao Bai, who was stained with blood.
Yu San's face was filled with fear, and he ran while shouting, "Master, Yu Si, run!"
Murong Zixi was shocked and after looking at Yu Si, she turned around and started to run away.
"I'm so unlucky. I just escaped from a wolf and now I'm being targeted by a giant python. It seems that this Death Forest is not a place for humans to stay!" Murong Zixi cursed while quickening her pace.
But the giant python didn't seem to intend to let them go and caught up with them.
Yu San stood in front of Murong Zixi without hesitation, "Yu Si, take the master away first, I will stay here to buy time!"
Murong Zixi saw the wounds on Yu Si's body and said, "No, we can't leave you alone, let's go together!"
Yu Si and Yu San shouted at the same time: "Master, please leave quickly, this place is too dangerous, we can't let you fall into danger!"
Murong Zixi sighed helplessly. She knew her own physical condition. She already regarded Yu San and Yu Si as companions and she would not give up on any of them.
"My body can't run far either, let's deal with this python together!"
"master!"
Murong Zixi narrowed her eyes slightly, a pistol appeared in her hand, and she pointed it at the python and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
With a single gunshot, the bullet shot towards the python like lightning. The bullet fell to the ground after sparks flew on the python's scales. The bomb was unable to penetrate the python's scales!
Murong Zixi couldn't help but widen her eyes and couldn't help but swear: "Fuck, the python's scales are so hard?"
The python was enraged by the gunshot and opened its bloody mouth and hissed.
In its eyes, these humans were nothing more than its prey, who dared to resist and attack it so boldly.
The angry python swung its huge tail violently, lashing towards them with a sharp sound of wind.
Yu San reacted quickly, leaped to Murong Zixi's side, held her tightly, and the two rolled on the ground to avoid the fatal blow.
With a loud bang, a big tree nearby was hit by the python's tail and collapsed, raising a cloud of dust.
Murong Zixi and Yu San got up from the ground, coughing continuously and spitting out the dust in their mouths.
"Puh, phuh, phuh" Murong Zixi brushed the dust off her body while looking at the python in front of her.
She thought to herself that the scales of this python were too hard, even bullets could not penetrate them. Her eyes fell on the python's fierce eyes, and she thought, yes, attack its eyes.
