There is a mountain in her arms

The rest of the journey went smoothly, except that Liu Wanwan was chattering a bit noisy all the way.

After checking his watch and estimating the time, Jiang Yichen put on his bag and stood up.

"It's not time for Jiang Yicheng yet?"

"I know. I'm going to the bathroom."

"Oh! Do you want me to go with you?"

"No, thank you!"

Goodbye! I said this in my heart.

After closing the door, Jiang Yichen breathed a sigh of relief.

Ever since what happened last night, the three people in the car had a strange attitude. Jiang Yichen didn't want to think about it, so he just pretended not to know.

I washed up in the toilet and ate some fruits. Before I came out, I heard the toilet door being slammed loudly.

"The people inside, please come out. How long has it been?"

"Is there anyone inside? He must be a capable person since there was no movement after filming for so long."

"Impossible, there is clearly someone here, and I asked and someone indeed saw someone inside."

Hearing the conversation outside, Jiang Yichen hurriedly made some noise. As soon as he opened the door, a sour and refreshing air rushed straight to the top of his head, making him hold his breath in an instant.

"Sorry, I have diarrhea, please forgive me!"

"Then why don't you say anything?"

"Brother, I was pinching my nose and covering my mouth during the situation inside. I replied but you didn't hear it. This train is buzzing everywhere, you may not have heard it."

"That's true. Hey, are you going to come on or not? If not, then I will."

"Go ahead, I'm almost suffocating to death."

It was not appropriate for a man to keep arguing with a little girl, especially such a pretty girl, so he quickly covered his stomach and subconsciously held his breath as he went in.

Jiang Yichen walked past with her head down apologetically and headed straight for the exit at the junction. Afraid of meeting Liu Wanwan and the others, she even walked through two more carriages.

Jiangnan was indeed picturesque, and she headed straight for Shewei Mountain as soon as she got off the car. Through the car window, the scenery along the way was still very pleasant, and the breeze blew away some of the hot and dry feeling.

Shewei Mountain is indeed a daunting mountain. Even the convoys don’t come here. It was only because Jiang Yichen promised a high reward that some people took the risk.

"Little girl, you are so young, why are you going to Shewei Mountain? Do you know anything about Shewei Mountain? Are you here just for the vague legends?"

The driver was a middle-aged man. Even though he was paid to do the job, he still wanted to dissuade his employer from doing the job.

"Legend? What legend? Is it the legend about the treasure?"

"Haha, girl, if it's just treasures, will people stay away from this place?"

"Oh! Then uncle, tell me about it."

"You don't even know the legend, so how dare you come here alone? Forget it, I'll do a good deed and take you back. I won't make this money anymore. If anything goes wrong, I'll be worried."

"No, no, uncle. I'm studying bioengineering. My teacher is leading a team in the mountains. I'm on my way to meet up with them! Please don't waste my time making another trip. But what legend are you talking about? Can you tell me about it?"

"Really?"

"It's better than Pearl! You see, I can't accomplish anything big by myself. If it weren't for the teacher's team, would I have come to this desolate mountain alone to seek death?"

"That's true! Then let me tell you a legend that is well known to us Jiangnan people. It is said that this Snake Tail Mountain was not called Snake Tail Mountain before. It seems that it used to be a Taoist temple with great incense. There was a Taoist boy in the Taoist temple who had a kind heart since he was a child. He had a kind heart towards all living things. He raised many small animals in the Taoist temple, including a small green snake."

"The master of the temple is a Taoist priest with profound magical powers and high moral character. People often come to him for advice. Some are upright and just stop at the right time, while others are vindictive in order to gain fame. The Taoist priest always convinces people with reason. Unfortunately, he still fell into the schemes of a villain, and the whole Taoist temple fell into decline, and the Taoist boy disappeared."

"What happened next?"

"Later! I heard that the Taoist boy learned the skill of taming beasts from somewhere, and the most powerful beast under his command was a giant green python. In the end, it was with this giant green python that he avenged the Taoist priest."

"Could it be that the Taoist boy finally came back here?"

"Yes! The Taoist boy was an orphan since he was young, and was raised by the Taoist priest. After taking revenge, he returned here. However, the Taoist temple is no longer there, and he doesn't want anyone to disturb the peace and quiet here, so he lets the green giant python roam around here frequently. Although it doesn't harm people, it is still creepy! As a result, this place has gradually become dark and terrifying, because the tail of the green giant python is often seen passing by, and the other end of the mountain looks like a snake's tail, so this place has gradually been called Snake Tail Mountain."

"I see! Since it won't actively harm anyone, I'm even less afraid of it."

"Oh, you are such a fool. Even if there is no giant python, there are still many poisonous insects and beasts. With your small body, you are not even enough to fill their teeth! After listening to me for so long, do you still want to go?"

"Go! I can sacrifice everything for science. Besides, don't we have my teachers? They always bring people to protect them when they travel. I'm not afraid."

"Hey, hey, why don't you listen to advice? If you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer the consequences. Girl, we agreed before that I won't go in, please pull over!"

"Okay, uncle, thank you!"

"If the price is right, everything is negotiable. Well, it's almost time. I'll give you one more chance to regret it. Do you want it?"

"No! I saw the path. Here's the money. Thank you for your kindness. Goodbye!"

Jiang Yichen didn't want to talk any more, so he paid the money, got out of the car, and then plunged into the woods.

"Hey, girl, slow down and look at the road you are walking on."

"Know it!"

Jiang Yichen's voice kept echoing in the woods. The driver didn't leave until he could no longer see her. Then he muttered.

"Achu, it's up to you."

Jiang Yichen stood on a high place and saw the car leave, so he brought Achu and the little fox out.

"Ouch!"

As soon as the little fox saw this place full of primitive atmosphere, it screamed with joy.

As a silver wolf, Achu still feels comfortable in such a place, and is also full of joy and happiness.

"Don't be too far away from me. Can you help me find out if there is anything good?"

Seeing the wolf and the fox eager to run away, Jiang Yichen hurriedly spoke to them.

"Okay, master!"

As long as there are mountains, there are treasures everywhere, let alone mountains like these that few people have set foot on.

Jiang Yichen took out a hiking stick and knocked it in the grass, while constantly looking around.

They hadn't walked far when it became increasingly darker inside, so Jiang Yichen put on a headlamp and held a super bright flashlight in his hand.

These things were specially prepared by Jiang Yichen before coming here, but he didn't expect to use them right at the beginning.

"Achu, please walk slower!"

"Master, why don't you ride on my back? It will be more convenient this way."

Achu kept running back and forth, implicitly expressing his disdain for Jiang Yicheng's speed.

"Alright! Although I've been used to living in the mountains since I was a child, this Snake Tail Mountain gives me a really bad feeling. It's like being stared at by a prey, and it gives me a creepy feeling."

"Master, is it possible that you are hallucinating? What else could there be here besides ferocious beasts? Could there be some immortal cultivator hiding here?"

"Ferocious beast? Immortal cultivator? It's really possible."

Jiang Yicheng felt that what Ah Chu guessed might be true, so she recounted the story that the driver had just told her.

"If the legend is true, then if we can find the Taoist temple, we might have a clue."

"But we don't know the direction?"

"Easy. Find the little fox. It has now vaguely unlocked some of its inheritance and has made great progress compared to the beginning."

"Really? Little fox, it's time for you to show off. Go ahead!"

Jiang Yichen touched the little fox's head and was full of expectations for it.

"Squeak!"

The little fox was taken seriously for the first time. He stood on his legs, puffed out his chest in a humane way, and rushed out like an arrow.

Jiang Yicheng was taken around by Ah Chu for two days, during which the little fox never came back. When Jiang Yicheng was hungry, he ate cakes, when he was thirsty, he ate fruits, when he was exhausted, he went to the space to eat a snack, and when he was tired, he slept in the space.

Three days later, a long, sharp whistle could be heard clearly in the mountains.

As if Ah Chu had received some kind of signal, he ran in the direction of the sound. Jiang Yicheng was caught off guard and hugged its neck tightly, lying on its back, with his hair blown all over.

"Achu, is this the cry of a little fox? What happened?"

"Hmm! Maybe it discovered something? We need to hurry over and join it."

When Achu stopped, Jiang Yichen only felt pain on his arms and back where they were scratched by the branches. As soon as he looked up, he saw a collapsed, dilapidated house that was unrecognizable.

"What is this? Could this be the legendary Taoist temple?"

"Squeak! Squeak!"

"Achu, what does the little fox mean?"

"It said there are lots of shed python skins here."

"Then, are there any other signs of human life?"

Jiang Yichen was actually just hoping for a lucky break. Who knows how many years had passed since then, and that Taoist boy probably wouldn't be alive today.

“It didn’t find it.”

"Okay! Let's go in and take a look."

The original outline can no longer be seen here, only the stone walls that have not yet weathered remain. Other traces ultimately could not escape the baptism of time and became ruins.

The mottled marks on the wall were a little blurry. Jiang Yichen subconsciously touched it to see it clearly, but the wall shattered completely like fragile glass.

Time is unforgiving and it covers up all traces.

"Hiss! Hiss!"

Suddenly, there was a shadow overhead, and the little fox jumped up and down in the ruins like a furious monkey.

Jiang Yicheng looked up subconsciously.

Hiss! What a big snake head! The most important thing is that the snake head is still spitting out its tongue.

"Achu, the legend is true! How come the giant python is still alive? I don't think I can do anything with this big guy. What do you think we should do? Or should we just give up?"

It was rare for Jiang Yichen to change her expression. No matter how bold she was, she was still a mortal after all, and this guy was dozens, hundreds, and thousands of times bigger than her.

"No! You step back first. If you really can't do it, go back to the space and I will try to talk to it."

"Talk about it? Have you ever thought about your body proportions?"

"I must find the power of the five elements, otherwise I will have no future. This is my mission."

"Okay! Be careful."

Jiang Yichen slowly backed away worriedly. The python seemed to look down on her. After all, she was so insignificant in its eyes.

"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!"

"Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!"

"Fizz!"

"Ouch!"

"Squeak squeak!"

"hiss!"

……

Jiang Yichen was stunned by the scene. She never thought that one day she would have the opportunity to witness three animals of such large sizes communicating with each other.

All right! It shouldn't be a big problem, Jiang Yicheng returned to the space with peace of mind.

"hiss!"

As soon as Jiang Yichen disappeared, the giant python's eyes widened. Its huge head suddenly sank and its body slowly moved. The entire snake body suddenly appeared, and from a distance it looked like a moving giant hill.

"Hiss!"

The little fox jumped onto Achu's head and also made a sharp cry.

"Squeak squeak..."

Jiang Yichen no longer knew about this, and she needed to calm down and reconcile her previous perceptions.

Because of the search in the past few days, Jiang Yichen had not washed herself properly. Now that she was no longer needed, she leisurely cleaned herself up and came out. She saw a scene that stunned her.

Oh my god! Is this still a python? So docile?

The giant python was seen lying on the ground in a relaxed manner, with the little fox jumping around on its head as if it was strolling in its own back garden, waving its claws and fangs. I don't know if the giant python could see the fox, which was like an ant in its eyes.

Achu seemed to dislike the giant python, but there was no fear in his eyes. He just subconsciously avoided any place where the giant python breathed.

"Is this solved? Did you find out what you asked? Is there any clue about the power of water?"

Jiang Yichen's sudden voice made Achu come to her side instantly, and the giant python's huge eyes turned to her, which was still a bit creepy to be honest.

Although there was obvious curiosity in his eyes but no murderous intent, Jiang Yichen still forced himself to look away.

"Well! The little fox asked."

"Little fox? I didn't expect it to be so useful! I'm a little curious, how did the giant python notice it given its size?"

Jiang Yicheng was gesturing as he spoke. The little fox understood what Jiang Yicheng said and seemed a little angry. It jumped over, baring its teeth and claws, and squeaked to express its dissatisfaction. Jiang Yicheng quickly admitted his mistake.

"This is also one of its abilities. It is not an ordinary little fox."

"Okay, okay, I was wrong. I misunderstood you. Next time I will give you barbecue."

"Tell me! What do you need me to do? We should leave this place as soon as possible. I am a normal person."

Although the beasts in the forest didn't approach her because of them, the environment was not good after all. After almost a week here, she still missed the outside world.

"Let's talk as we walk! The giant python will take us to a lake. What we want should be there. It is the guardian that stays behind."

"Guardian? Is it the little green snake that the Taoist boy raised before?"

"No! But it's not irrelevant. You can go there on my back or on it. The lake is still quite far from here."

"Of course I choose you. I just took a shower and don't want to be stained with such a strong fishy smell. Besides, it's cold and I feel creepy."

Jiang Yichen rolled his eyes in annoyance and swiftly flipped onto its back.

"Ow!"

The giant python immediately raised its head and swam quickly in one direction.
