I see Qingshan

Chapter 42 Remaining Power

Late at night, Zhao Teng rode his motorcycle wildly on the road, and the harsh roar could be heard from time to time.

"That thing is catching up again..."

Tang Xin turned her head and leaned sideways. As soon as she made a sound, cold wind instantly rushed into her mouth.

The locomotive was traveling at an extremely fast speed, and at one moment, it almost collided with a blue truck.

Tang Xin was so frightened that she dared not breathe: "Brother...slow down!"

The truck ahead, loaded with goods, slowed down. The driver quickly rolled down the window, pointed at Zhao Teng and Tang Xin, and cursed, "You two little brats, are you trying to save your lives? Go and surrender..."

Before he could finish his words, the motorcycle suddenly passed the truck and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Only its taillights could be vaguely seen.

……

In less than half an hour, Zhao Teng drove his motorcycle to a huge lake area.

There were lush trees nearby, and a dilapidated little boat was docked right in front.

Zhao Teng parked his motorcycle on the side of the road and looked around, but didn't see a single person.

Tang Xin left the back seat and stared at the large black stone in his hand: "And then?"

Da Heishi: "What then?"

Hearing this, Tang Xin frowned: "Didn't you tell me to come to Taiping Lake? This is it. Where is my previous mountain keeper?"

Da Heishi: "The mountain keeper before you? She's been dead for who knows how many years. Didn't I tell you that this is her burial place?"

Tang Xin was stunned for a moment.

Perhaps she was too nervous to understand what she heard, and she thought that Da Heishi asked her to find the former mountain keeper.

As a result, the mountain guard had already died...

Da Heishi: "The mountain guardian before you, the power she controlled was very restraining to the snake. Even after death, this power will not dissipate. So in theory, the snake should not approach this area. Of course, this is just my guess, not exclusive."

Zhao Teng originally wanted to ask Tang Xin about the snake transformation, but when he looked over, he saw Tang Xin talking to the broken stone in his hand, and his face immediately became ugly.

Zhao Teng's voice trembled slightly: "Sister, are you okay..."

Zhao Teng couldn't be sure whether Tang Xin was stimulated by something or whether the stone really had something special.

After all, I have experienced a lot during this period of time. Even gods and monsters can appear in front of me. I can also accept that a stone can speak.

But after observation, Zhao Teng did not hear Shi Tou speak, but only saw Tang Xin talking to himself.

"This... era is really... interesting... your... mounts... are very fast."

Not long after, Huashe's sinister laughter echoed in their ears.

The moment Tang Xin and Zhao Teng saw the transformed snake appear, their expressions changed at the same time.

Seeing the transformed snake slowly approaching them, the two men immediately retreated.

The snake took a few steps before its pupils shrank slightly. A trace of suspicion hung on its pale face. Its nose twitched as it sniffed around. "Where... where... is... why... is there that... familiar smell..."

While Huashe was lost in thought, Da Heishi said, "Go into the water. The power of the mountain guardian after his death is distributed in the lake."

Tang Xin: "..."

Big Black Stone: "Go ahead, what are you waiting for?"

Tang Xin: "I can't swim."

Wouldn’t you drown if you go down?
Da Heishi: "Don't blame me for that. Just wish you the best and accept your fate."

Tang Xin's face was full of worry, and she swore that if she had another chance, she must learn to swim!

"Brother, get in the water!"

Tang Xin said to Zhao Teng who was standing aside and trembling.

Zhao Teng: "Sister, I can't swim either. I was once drowned by a pond in my hometown when I was a child. Since then, I have never dared to play in the water again." "Sister, here is a boat!"

When Zhao Teng saw the small wooden boat swaying slowly by the lake, his eyes flashed and he immediately stepped on it.

Seeing this, Tang Xin didn't waste any words and followed Zhao Teng onto the boat.

When Huashe came to his senses, the two were already standing at the bow of the boat.

Not long after, the snake coiled its tail and came to the shore, looking at the small wooden boat that was already drifting towards the center of the lake.

Tang Xin observed for a long time and saw that the snake really didn't dare to go into the water. It just stared at him with hatred.

"Escape... You can't escape!"

The transformed snake opened its mouth, and countless blue waves emerged from thin air, condensing into huge, almost tangible water arrows.

Zhao Teng was stunned and stammered incoherently: "Ah! It can do magic!"

Tang Xin: "That should be a spell, right?"

Zhao Teng: "I'm almost dead, and you still care whether it's magic or sorcery!"

As soon as he finished speaking, countless azure water arrows shot towards the two of them like rain.

"Better to be drowned than shot!"

Tang Xin was just about to pull Zhao Teng into the lake when a large, strange flame suddenly ignited on the water surface.

The rain of arrows evaporated instantly, but did not cause any damage to the small wooden boat on the lake or Zhao Teng and Tang Xin on the boat.

Seeing this miraculous scene, Zhao Teng clasped his hands together, bowed reverently in all directions, and said, "Thank you, gods, for your rescue! Thank you, gods, for your rescue!"

Huashe stood on the shore, furious: "Even after death...you still want to go against...me!"

After learning that Huashe was powerless, Tang Xin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Big Black Stone: "Well, I was right, wasn't I? The lake still contains the lingering power of the mountain guardian, guarding it forever. Now you can rest assured, even the snake can do nothing."

After learning the whole story, Tang Xin silently thanked the previous mountain keeper in his heart.

"Come after me, you bastard!"

At this moment, Tang Xin put his hands on his hips, one foot on the bow, and looked at Huashe with his "nostrils": "Look at you, you look like a bear. If you have the guts, come into the water and chase us!"

Seeing Tang Xin so confident, Zhao Teng asked in surprise: "Sister, are we okay?"

Tang Xin nodded: "You saw it, it didn't dare to go into the water, and all its attacks were blocked by the gods you mentioned, don't worry."

Hearing Tang Xin say this, Zhao Teng imitated Tang Xin, putting his hands on his hips and pointing at the angry snake by the lake, cursing: "You little bastard, look at your appearance, and you still have a connection with me? You don't deserve it. If you have the guts to stand there and don't move, I'll hit you to death with my motorcycle!"

The two cursed for a long time, venting all the resentment in their hearts.

Tang Xin: "Huh?"

Tang Xin didn't know if it was her illusion, but she suddenly felt that the direction of the small wooden boat had changed.

Not only Tang Xin, but even Zhao Teng looked suspicious: "Sister, look at our boat, why is it drifting towards the shore?"

Tang Xin: "That shouldn't be the case. The wind is blowing in our face..."

Halfway through his speech, Tang Xin was dumbfounded.

I saw the snake standing on the shore, holding a very thick hemp rope in his hand, and pulling the rope back.

The other end of the hemp rope is tied to the bow of the boat.

Tang Xin's scalp was numb. She stared at Zhao Teng and said, "Brother, you left the rope that tied the boat on the shore and didn't retrieve it?"

Zhao Teng scratched his head: "Oh, I was so nervous just now that I forgot!"

Tang Xin: "..."
