Chapter 211 The Snake King Appears
Chapter 211 The Snake King Appears
The three of them left the secret passage and came outside the study, looking for someone to clear Dong Xi out.
However, for the safety of these ordinary people, Xia Yanxin still took safety measures for everyone, such as protective clothing, which must be worn, and a sturdy helmet. Xia Yanxin even gave everyone a realgar sachet.
After everyone was dressed, Xia Yanxin and Cheng Zimo led the team in front and entered the secret passage again.
Xia Yanxin and Cheng Zimo made sure it was safe before they had people clean up the snake corpses. If they encountered one that was not yet dead, they would just give it another kill.
Although this slowed down the progress, it was safer. However, no matter how careful they were, they could not prevent the giant python that had not been burned to death from hiding in a dark corner and waiting for its chance to strike.
Because they were in a deep corner, the two of them didn't see it for a while, so when the huge python entangled Xia Yanxin, everyone was stunned. How could such a big python be still alive?
Seeing this, Cheng Zimo became extremely worried, and immediately drew out the soft sword from his waist and went forward to fight with the python. However, the python seemed to know Cheng Zimo's intention, and before Cheng Zimo could start fighting it, it swept Cheng Zimo aside with its tail.
The other people who came to help were so scared when they saw this that they dropped what they were holding and ran out desperately. At the same time, Xia Yanxin said, "Cheng Zimo, lead everyone outside and don't look back. I can save myself."
Of course Cheng Zimo knew what she meant, but he was still worried about him. When Xia Yanxin was struggling, she saw Cheng Zimo still standing here and knew what he was going to do.
"Don't come over here. Go out and evacuate everyone quickly. Let them leave the prefectural government and stay far away. I will find a way to lure the python out. The space here is too narrow and I can't move it."
After Cheng Zimo glanced at Xia Yanxin, he held the soft sword and covered their departure. Even those who were so frightened that they forgot to escape were dragged out of the secret passage by their companions.
Although Xia Cheng'an did not follow them in, he still stood guard outside the secret passage. He saw that the people who had originally gone in to help were taking off their coats and running away while looking inside with fear, as if there was something scary in the secret passage.
Xia Chengan had a bad feeling in his heart. He stopped someone and asked, "Why did you come out? Where's my sister?"
The person who was held back looked at Xia Chengan in shock and said tremblingly, "Run! If you don't run, you'll die. There's a very big python inside, and it's wrapped around Miss Xia."
Xia Cheng'an's hands quickly dropped down. When the captured person saw Xia Cheng'an let him go, he raised his feet and ran out quickly. He really didn't want to stay here for a moment.
Without giving Xia Cheng'an time to think, he rushed inside. He wanted to die with his sister. Xia Cheng'an saw Cheng Zimo protecting those people out, but did not see Xia Yanxin.
Xia Chengan, filled with fear and anger, rushed to Cheng Zimo and asked loudly, "Cheng Zimo, where is my sister? How could you do this? My sister is still in there, and you actually just abandoned her."
"Are you still a human being? If you don't take care of my sister, I will." Xia Cheng'an said as he was about to rush in, but was grabbed by Cheng Zimo.
"Calm down, your sister is not in danger. She has her secret weapon, have you forgotten? Your sister said that this place is too small to use it, so she wants to lure the snake outside."
"You can't ruin my sister's plan, otherwise your sister's life or death will be in danger." Cheng Zimo dragged Xia Chengan out of the secret passage.
"Let me go, let me in, I want to save my sister, you are a coward, a wimp!" Xia Chengan couldn't hear anything at this time, so he could only pull Xia Chengan and not let him leave his side.
Seeing that Cheng Zimo still refused to let him go, Xia Chengan got anxious and started biting his hand hard. Cheng Zimo endured it and defended himself.
"Okay, I believe you. I won't go in. We'll just wait in the yard for my sister to come out." Xia Cheng'an said after thinking for a while.
Cheng Zimo narrowed his eyes, thinking that the boy was lying, so he still did not let go of Xia Chengan. At this time, all the people in the prefectural mansion had left, and except for the corpses, only Cheng Zimo and Xia Chengan were left.
All those who left hid at the gate of the prefectural government office and on the surrounding walls. They all wanted to see how big this huge python was.
Cheng Zimo frowned unhappily when he saw this scene. Just when he was about to signal An Yi and his men to come over, An Yi arrived with his subordinates: "Master!"
"Take everyone and take these people away from here. The farther the better. Don't let them get close to here. Anyone who disobeys will be arrested and thrown into jail."
An Yi glanced at the people behind him and passed on Cheng Zimo's order, and he returned to Cheng Zimo's side: "Your subordinates will protect the prince's safety."
If it were just normal snakes, Cheng Zimo would not be so vigilant and cautious, as if facing a powerful enemy. It is obvious that this is a very tricky python.
As a secret guard, it is his duty to protect the master's safety at all times. The secret guards came back one after another. They all stood beside Cheng Zimo, ready for battle. There was no one on the wall or around.
"My lord, the situation outside is being watched by soldiers, so nothing can go wrong. We, your subordinates, have returned and swear to protect Your Highness until our death." An Er said with his head down.
Cheng Zimo glanced at the secret guards behind him and said calmly, "Pay attention to your safety. No matter what happens, your life is important. This python is not an ordinary python. You must be extremely alert."
The secret guards, Cheng Zimo and Xia Chengan were all standing in the yard waiting for the python to appear, especially Xia Chengan, who was staring at the study. Although Cheng Zimo appeared calm on the surface, he still couldn't stop worrying about Xia Yanxin.
He was afraid that Xia Yanxin would get hurt, and that she would not be able to dodge and be attacked by the python.
After seeing everyone leave, Xia Yanxin in the secret passage suppressed her nausea and fear and slipped into the space first. The python, which originally wanted to swallow Xia Yanxin into its stomach in one breath, had a noticeably stiff expression on its face.
It couldn't understand how the stupid human who was there just now suddenly disappeared. The python looked around anxiously, but still couldn't see Xia Yanxin.
Seeing that it couldn't find anyone, the python had to swim out of the secret passage quickly. Today it was determined to eat those who destroyed its snake nest and avenge its own snake descendants.
