Chapter 929

This boat was a new one He Lingchuan bought, and there was nothing to pick on from the wood to the workmanship, but could it resist the furious Yin-Snakes? No one was optimistic.

The sun was in the sky, and the Yin-Snakes didn't dare to attack the boat, so they wanted to sink the bottom of the boat and take everyone into the water.

Underwater was their main battlefield.

He Lingchuan patted the deck hard: "Come out quickly, you are the hope of the whole boat!"

Min Tianxi subconsciously looked at the narrow cabin entrance, only to see a pair of furry, thick chelicerae probing out, prying the door panel and struggling to get out! The next moment it stretched its body, expanding like an inflatable, and Min Tianxi realized that this was a giant spider, nearly a zhang high! Yin-Snakes are ferocious, but this big guy is no less so.

"This!" He looked at the giant spider, and then at the cabin door that he had to lower his head and bend his waist to pass through.

With such a round figure, how did it squeeze out of such a small mouth?

This giant monster has been hiding in the cabin? No wonder the boat was so deep in the water!

He just said, how could it be this boat speed with only twenty people's weight? He also heard He Lingchuan complaining to this big spider: "Mother, these ghosts are chiseling the boat underwater."

"Heard it," the giant spider's muffled voice sounded. "Leave it to me. You tell your subordinates to row faster."

After saying that, it walked towards the bow, ignoring everyone.

No matter how the hull shook, it walked on flat ground, and its speed didn't decrease.

Without He Lingchuan's further order, everyone grabbed the oars and hoisted the sails, using all their strength.

Mother Zhu crawled to the bow, aimed her big belly at the bottom of the bow, and sprayed bundles of red spider silk.

These spider silks formed a net, floating on the water surface.

The boat sailed over the net, and the net drifted to the bottom of the boat.

It wove layer after layer until four or five layers of nets were spread to the bottom of the boat, and Mother Zhu stopped.

Halfway through, two Yin-Snakes jumped out of the water, wanting to sneak attack it.

Mother Zhu was not afraid.

It was covered in sharp thorns, let alone the four hands of the Yin-Snake, even fourteen hands couldn't drag it into the water; it was prickly.

It's like a person squeezing a durian with a shell... tsk, exciting.

Besides, with Mother Zhu's body shape and tonnage, it was difficult for Yin-Snakes to shake it.

There was another unlucky one who didn't jump well and jumped directly in front of Mother Zhu, and was twisted by its giant chelicerae and pulled onto the boat.

The exposure of the sun was a public execution. The snake-like body of the Yin-Snake rolled painfully on the deck, and everyone smelled a pungent burnt smell.

In just over ten breaths, the Yin-Snake stopped moving, like a piece of burnt charcoal.

Everyone pushed it off the boat.

At this time, the scratching sound at the bottom of the boat was smaller, but the shaking of the hull was even more intense, as if several big guys were constantly flopping underneath.

"Hold on, hold on! Don't fall into the sea!"

Mother Zhu then slowly collected the net.

The movements were mechanical and flexible, full of the beauty of slaughter.

The struggle coming from the net became more and more intense. If someone else came to control the net, they might not even be able to catch the net.

Every time one was dragged up, Mother Zhu threw them back onto the deck; that action was no different from a fisherman catching fish and collecting nets.

Earth-hole spiders love to eat fish, and they caught fish like this in the Demon Nest Swamp.

These Yin-Snakes were all making trouble at the bottom of the boat, or spinning around the boat, but they were stuck by the spider web and couldn't escape.

The spider web was light enough to float with the water, but its sturdiness was unquestionable.

The Yin-Snakes were used to running rampant in the waters near Dragon Spine Island and never thought that one day they would encounter such an opponent, and they didn't need to face it head-on to pull them out of the water.

The rest of the work was left to the sun.

The Yin-Snakes wanted to escape the deck and return to the sea, but Mother Zhu's net was not so easy to break free from. In a short while, they were roasted inside and out.

Every time one was roasted to death, Mother Zhu pushed them back into the sea, so as not to sink the boat.

Soon, another Yin-Snake was dragged onto the boat.

Then the third, the fourth...

Five in a row, done in the same way.

During this process, the boat didn't slow down much.

Min Tianxi was busy while stealing glances at the spider monster.

Just looking at its attack methods, he knew that the Fish Bone Reef where He Lingchuan arranged to meet the Second-Way pirates was particularly suitable for the spider monster to play!

That place was surrounded by the sea on all sides, the terrain was long and narrow, and the pirates were all standing together, which was just right for Mother Zhu to catch them all in one net.

But He Lingchuan kept it on the boat and took people to fight the pirates with knives!

This was to beat them into submission from force.

Min Tianxi swallowed his saliva.

Every once in a while, the netting process had to be repeated several times. The number of Yin-Snakes that were roasted to death by Mother Zhu reached more than thirty, big and small, and the total weight had exceeded the hull itself.

This record was truly beyond everyone's, including He Lingchuan's, expectations, which showed that the Yin-Snake leader had been on guard against him long ago and had sent Yin-Snakes to lurk in the water in advance to prevent him from coming to make trouble again.

It was just that Mother Zhu's moves were flexible, which happened to restrain the display of these Yin-Snakes, otherwise it would be a big trouble.

Seeing that there were fewer and fewer Yin-Snakes chasing the boat, He Lingchuan ordered the boat to turn back.

Now he had calculated that the range of the Great Square Pot absorbing Yin-Sha was about thirty miles. They returned to Dragon Spine Island, and could suck the Yin-Sha on the island clean, leaving almost nothing! Min Tianxi thought for a moment and suddenly understood: "The Yin-Sha earth veins erupt every seven days. Hey, it just erupted last night!"

"Yes, it will wait until six days later to erupt again," He Lingchuan smiled. "Last time we came at the wrong time, although we sucked the Yin-Sha on the island clean, the earth veins erupted that night, and the strong Yin-Snakes survived."

This time, he wanted to see what Yin-Snakes could survive for six days in a state without evil. That was like a fish leaving the water for six days; except for some special varieties, the others were probably doomed.

Sure enough, during the return to Dragon Spine Island, the number of attacks on the boat decreased, only twice, with a total of six Yin-Snakes.

Most of the Yin-Snakes on Dragon Spine Island lived on the island and were blocked by the sun, and even fewer wandered in the sea. Now that forty were lured and killed by Mother Zhu, the entire sea area was quiet.

However, after multiple rounds of attacks, humans could not be unscathed. One pirate was killed, Min Tianxi himself was injured, and two Rongshan disciples were injured.

Yin-Snakes hurting people has been common in Blade Harbor since ancient times. After years of practice, fishermen and pirates have explored a set of rescue methods.

Actually, it's just two main medicines: White Flame Grass, which is extremely fierce in Yang energy, plus the Black Domain Insect unique to the archipelago.

This kind of insect is very similar to a beetle in shape and size, but the pattern on its back is very like a human eye, and it has wings and can fly. It specifically grows in the place of Yin-Sha. He Lingchuan also saw many on Dragon Spine Island, and Lingguang caught many of them.

Interestingly, White Flame Grass also grows in places with thick Yin-Sha, but in places where sunlight can shine.

It will capture the truth of the scorching sun.

Growing Yang medicine from the place of extreme Yin is very scientific.

Mashing these two things together and applying them to the wound is the local special medicine against Yin-Snake poison.

The gentle Yang energy of White Flame Grass can neutralize Yin-Sha, and the flesh and blood of the Black Domain Insect will attract the snake poison in the wound, preventing it from spreading throughout the body.

But these two things grow in places where Yin-Sha is prevalent, so picking them on the island has a certain difficulty, so the price is not cheap.

After emergency treatment, everyone's injuries were relieved.

The hull was also damaged.

After all, it had withstood the attacks of dozens of Yin-Snakes one after another, and no matter how strong it was, there was a limit.

Lu Qiuwei discovered that there were three holes in the bottom of the boat, and seawater was pouring in, bubbling.

At this rate of water intake, the boat would sink before it sailed back to the Fish Bone Reef.

Fortunately, they were well prepared for this trip and had prepared sandbags and wooden boards early. Min Tianxi directed several subordinates to go down to the cabin to rush for repairs.

They were used to making a living at sea, and this little patching was just a piece of cake.

The trouble with plugging the leak was that the seawater kept pouring in and hindering the construction. Mother Zhu heard about it and squeezed into the cabin, spraying several spider webs at the holes in the bottom of the boat.

This time it wasn't red, but sticky and thick white nets, with extremely fine and small meshes. Although it didn't block water, the speed of seawater pouring into the cabin slowed down, and it could help the wooden boards to be fixed and nailed quickly.

In a few strokes, the bottom of the boat was patched, and everyone scooped the seawater out.

After being busy for a while, the boat returned to the coastline of Dragon Spine Island.

From beginning to end, He Lingchuan's "human-shaped black hole" function had never been turned off. But any Yin-Sha near the area he passed would rush out of their hiding places and rush towards him without hesitation until they were purified by the sun.

Dragon Spine Island was the same.

This scene was staged again after fifteen days.

It's just that the earth veins won't erupt tonight, and the Yin-Snakes have to survive for six days before they can wait for the next earth evil.

Deep in the island, the Yin-Snake King's long and high roar came again.

He Lingchuan took the Heavenly Covenant Gold Scroll in his hand, and sure enough, he immediately distinguished its anger and anxiety.

It was asking him why he wanted to kill the Yin-Snake clan, what deep hatred he had? Thousands of words boiled down to one sentence—

"Are you sick?!"

This guy was so angry that he started swearing.

Hearing the monster's irritable emotions, He Lingchuan was once worried that it would ignore everything and rush out of the ground to find trouble for humans.

After all, no one knows if such an old monster has any temporary ways to resist sunlight.

He also ordered Mother Zhu to be ready.

Fortunately, this situation never appeared. It seems that although the Yin-Snake King was angry, it wasn't angry enough to lose its mind.

However, how to get in touch with this guy? He Lingchuan followed Min Tianxi's instructions and used the gold scroll to reflect sunlight onto a crack in a big mountain on the island.

The mountain there was strange, and there was an inward depression near the middle and bottom. Even if the noon sun shone directly on the ground, it couldn't shine in there.

The light reflected by the gold scroll actually hit a dazzling seven-colored rainbow on this dark mountain wall.

After repeating this several times, the Yin-Snake King's roar stopped.

After repeating this a few times, the roaring of the Earthly Yin Qi serpent king stopped.
