Chapter 119

The things Heng Xian took out were not too many:

A plate of white-cut spirit mutton, a roasted chicken, a basin of spirit lake vinegar fish, a plate of thousand-zero vegetables, a plate of spicy beef jerky, ten meat pies, and two bottles of Tianyuan Immortal Brew.

For a time, the fragrance of wine and vegetables wafted around.

Bai Ziqi, Ye Xiaoyao, Xiao Qiyun, Jiang Ziyi, and others, who were originally slightly proud, looked at Heng Xian's wine and vegetables, then looked at the buns and jerky in their own hands,

And instantly it didn't smell good anymore!

It even looked a bit poor.

Heng Xian coughed unhurriedly: "Out and about, eating a bit simply!"

Bai Ziqi and others' resentment increased greatly; this is called simple? This is much better than eating at a restaurant in the city!

Who brings so many things in their storage bag when they go out? Aren't they afraid of dirtying the storage bag and having to buy a new one?!

Ma Buyin swallowed his saliva, simply returned the buns and jerky to Bai Ziqi, and shuffled to Heng Xian's side: "I don't want to eat, I just simply want to accompany Junior Brother!"

"Together!" Heng Xian nodded generously, then automatically ignored Song Rufeng and Tong Quezi who were meditating, and looked at Lin Shuyu who was in a daze, "Senior Sister, eat a little?"

Lin Shuyu turned her head and smiled politely: "I've been fasting for a long time; Junior Brother, eat slowly."

Heng Xian simply greeted Xu Wei and the other two to come over, and the five sat in a circle, drinking small wine.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food.

Ma Buyin was about to say something when Ye Xiaoyao suddenly looked straight at a place: "That, what is that?"

Everyone turned to look, only to see a pair of blue glowing lights in the darkness, seemingly a black shadow as thick as an arm, flapping its wings,

From a long distance, they smelled a pungent fishy stench.

Song Rufeng, who was meditating, opened his eyes sharply, his face changed greatly: "This is a Flying Scale Snake, equivalent to the Condensing Qi stage, with strong poison on its body, good at spraying venom and stinging with its tail hook!

And it's extremely difficult to kill; one is nothing, but this thing is gregarious, and there are at least nearly ten thousand around here."

When everyone heard this, they couldn't care about eating anymore and hurriedly asked: "What should we do? Uncle-Master, make the decision!"

Song Rufeng thought for a while, took out a bottle of pills, poured out fourteen, exactly corresponding to the number of people, and distributed them one by one: "This pill is called the Evil-Repelling Pill, specifically for dealing with this thing; I hope they won't rush up regardless of everything; everyone eat it!"

Everyone swallowed it one after another.

Heng Xian looked at the solemn Song Rufeng and also threw the pill into his mouth.

After eating the pill, everyone felt a little relieved.

Who knew that not long after, a "buzzing" sound suddenly came from all around.

One "Flying Scale Snake" turned into countless, surrounding them tightly, and started attacking without stopping.

For a time, the fishy stench and the rustling sound of wings flapping filled the sky.

Ye Xiaoyao was shocked: "Master, this..."

Song Rufeng's face was gloomy: "It seems these beasts were attracted by Junior Brother Heng Xian's wine and food; let's run separately for now, with smaller targets.

This poisonous thing will fall asleep at dawn; we will gather here then!"

As he spoke, he wrapped up the group of new disciples with low cultivation, including Ye Xiaoyao, Xiao Qiyun, and Jiang Ziyi, and rushed out first.

Lin Shuyu, Ma Buyin, Tong Que'er, and others also picked up their spirit weapons and rushed out.

Heng Xian looked around, found a place with fewer "Flying Scale Snakes," and rushed over. Halfway through, he swung his "Cow-B Sword" and slashed out with one sword.

"Swish!"

At least a dozen "Flying Scale Snakes" were knocked to the ground by the sword energy, but it didn't seem to hurt them; they twisted and turned, flying up again.

Heng Xian took the opportunity to run out through the gap.

On the other side, Song Rufeng waved his long sleeves, smashing a piece of "Flying Scale Snakes," easily taking Ye Xiaoyao and his group out of the encirclement, and ran for a full seven or eight miles before stopping.

Ye Xiaoyao looked back at the people behind him: "So dangerous, this thing can't be killed!"

Song Rufeng nodded, took him and Xiao Qiyun, walked behind the other new disciples, walked to a dark place, and said indifferently: "It just depends on whether Heng Xian is lucky or not!"

Ye Xiaoyao was curious: "What does Master mean?"

Song Rufeng said: "This place is called Flying Scale Snake Ridge, with a full one hundred thousand Flying Scale Snakes. I came here in my early years, and I deliberately chose to stay here tonight to deal with Heng Xian.

The pills I gave you are all to avoid Flying Scale Snakes; even if you stand in a pile of Flying Scale Snakes, they won't come near.

Only the pill Heng Xian ate was refined from something on the Flying Scale Snake King, which is very attractive to the hatred of Flying Scale Snakes.

At this time, if there are no accidents, all the Flying Scale Snakes have gone to Heng Xian."

Ye Xiaoyao and Xiao Qiyun looked at each other: "Master, wonderful!"

In the mountain forest, Heng Xian ran wildly, with Flying Scale Snakes densely packed and filling the sky chasing after him.

While running, he looked in the direction Song Rufeng left, rolled his eyes, and spat out a pill from his mouth; it was the one Song Rufeng gave him.

Old guy, wanting to pit me, ask the Heavenly Hexagram first.

However, he couldn't do it too obviously; if he shook off the Flying Scale Snake group too easily, in case that old bastard got angry and did it himself, it wouldn't be fun!

Thinking about it, he ran forward for a while, aimed at a stone wall, crushed the pill, and leaped over.

It was dawn.

Song Rufeng brought Ye Xiaoyao and his group back slowly. When they arrived at the campfire from last night, they found that Lin Shuyu, Ma Buyin, Tong Quezi, Bai Ziqi, Xu Wei, and others had all arrived, only Heng Xian was missing.

Ye Xiaoyao and Xiao Qiyun looked at each other, their hearts beating wildly, their faces full of joy, but they forcibly suppressed it.

Song Rufeng looked indifferent: "Hmm, have all the junior nephews arrived?"

Ma Buyin said with some worry: "Junior Brother Heng Xian hasn't come back yet."

"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Song Rufeng looked around, "Junior Nephew Heng Xian has always had a reputation as a genius, so he should be fine; let's wait a little longer!"

Lin Shuyu frowned: "This place is too dense with Flying Scale Snakes; it's hard to guarantee that Junior Brother Heng won't have an accident; let's go out and look for him."

Song Rufeng nodded: "Hmm, what Junior Nephew Lin said is also reasonable; then let's look for him together."

As he spoke, a group of people looked for him in the direction Heng Xian left.

After searching for a full hour, the crowd finally stopped in front of a stone wall.

Only to see that the stone wall was full of traces left by venom corrosion, and there were large areas of corrosion around it.

Under the stone wall, there was a dark, human-shaped trace, and a pair of corroded shoes beside it.

Heng Xian's shoes.

What this represented was obvious!

Ma Buyin's face changed, and he let out a howl: "Junior Brother Heng!"

Xu Wei and the three others turned pale and shouted: "Senior Brother Heng!"

Lin Shuyu's face was full of unbearable and melancholy for such a smart and talented junior brother.

It was a pity that he was gone just like that!

Ye Xiaoyao, Xiao Qiyun, Bai Ziqi, and others looked at each other, all seeing a trace of joy after revenge in each other's eyes.

Only Song Rufeng was very suspicious, feeling it didn't look quite like it, but... couldn't deny it, so he couldn't help but sigh: "The mission hasn't started, and a true disciple has been lost; this is... my fault!"

Hearing the elder's confirmation, a group of new disciples wailed: "Senior Brother Heng!"

Ma Buyin even ran to the riverbank and carved a stone tablet, inserting it by the river, on which was written: Tomb of Heng Xian, True Disciple of Ku Liu Peak, Tianyuan Sect!

Bai Ziqi also said falsely: "Junior Brother Heng, Junior Brother Heng, even if we have grudges, I don't want you to leave like this; come back!"

Just when everyone was mourning with true and false sadness,

A sad voice came from behind: "Who died?"

Everyone turned to look and saw Heng Xian carrying a peach branch full of peaches, blinking at the crowd.
