After traveling through time, the adults were completely in my hands

In Wei Qing's room at the county government office, Jindou came in with a bowl of porridge, put it on the table and said, "Second brother, come and have some porridge!"

In the past few days, Jindou has been making various medicinal porridges and nutritious porridges for Wei Qing. Not only did the injury on Wei Qing's arm heal quickly, but his body also felt much stronger than before.

At this moment, Wei Qing was sitting behind the desk looking at the documents in his hand. When he heard Jin Dou talking, he put down the documents and walked over to sit at the desk.

Here Wei Qing picked up the spoon and drank the porridge, while Jindou sat opposite him, with his arms on the table, his chin supported by his hands, staring at him motionlessly.

Being stared at by Jin Dou with such fixed eyes, Wei Qing felt a little creepy all over. He couldn't help but put down the spoon and asked Jin Dou, "Why are you staring at me like that?"

"Second brother, you are so handsome. Even the way you drink porridge looks so handsome," Jindou stared at Wei Qing and blurted out.

Alas, God is so unfair, letting a man be so handsome. Look at his facial features and eyes, they are all as if carefully carved by a sculptor. They are so exquisite!

God, why did you let a grown man be so beautiful? Why don’t you make a girl like me prettier? Jindou complained madly in his heart.

Jindou was complaining in his heart, and Wei Qing, who was sitting opposite him, suddenly blushed because of what Jindou said.

"Jindou, you...you..." Wei Qing kept saying "you" for a long time, his face flushed red, and he couldn't say another word.

He lowered his head, picked up the spoon, and was about to continue drinking porridge, but he felt Jindou's fixed gaze, and thought of what Jindou had just said, that he looked very pretty when drinking porridge. For a moment, Wei Qing felt uncomfortable all over. He put the spoon into the bowl, pushed it aside and said, "Put it here for now, and drink it later."

"Oh, that won't do!" Jindou hurriedly stood up, pushed the bowl back toward Wei Qing, and said, "Second brother, this is nourishing porridge, it's best to drink it while it's hot."

After saying that, he sat down again, still staring at Wei Qing.

Wei Qing had no choice but to pick up the spoon again, but when Jindou looked at him, he felt hot all over and sweat was almost dripping down his forehead.

Unable to hold back any longer, Wei Qing raised his head and, for the first time in his life, stuttered to Jindou, "Jindou, could you... stop staring at me?"

"Ah? ...Ah" Jindou was stunned for a moment, then reacted and quickly waved his hands, saying, "Don't worry, second brother, I'm just taking a look, I don't have any improper thoughts!"

"Cough cough cough..." It would have been better if Jindou didn't explain. After this explanation, Wei Qing's face turned red and he started coughing violently.

Oh my god, I made myself angry again. Anger is bad for the body. This guy’s injury just healed!

Jindou thought so in his heart, and quickly stood up and walked behind Wei Qing. He patted Wei Qing on the back with one hand and said, "Second brother, calm down. I was really just taking a look. I really don't dare to have any improper thoughts about you!"

"Cough, cough, cough..." Wei Qing was patted on the back by Jindou, and after hearing what Jindou just said, his coughing became even more heart-wrenching.

Two days later, Wei Qing, Jin Dou and his party came to the place where they found the python last time.

In the valley, traces of the last fight with the python were still faintly visible. Just as they stood still, they heard a rustling sound from the bushes, as the python rubbed against the leaves as it crawled.

The sound came from far away and became louder and louder. Xie Xiaohu and several Jinyiwei were all on edge, staring at the direction where the sound came from.

Wei Qing held his sword in his hand, stood in front of Jindou, and whispered, "Be careful!" Jindou nodded, holding the talisman in his hand, and looked nervously in the direction where the voice came from.

In the blink of an eye, the huge black python suddenly jumped out from the bushes, opened its bloody mouth, spit out bright red tongue, and pounced towards the crowd.

Several people dodged to the side at the same time, and slashed at the python with their swords, but the python dodged flexibly and swept its tail. The two Jinyiwei were unable to dodge and were knocked away.

Seeing this, Wei Qing and Xie Xiaohu rushed forward together, but saw the python open its mouth again and spit out a puff of black mist. This time Wei Qing was prepared. When the python opened its mouth, he grabbed Xie Xiaohu and quickly retreated a few steps away.

Unexpectedly, the python was extremely ferocious. It leaped upwards and pounced on the two of them again.

At this time, Jindou, who was standing behind, saw it clearly and quickly waved the talisman in his hand. The talisman turned into golden light and flew over as fast as lightning, hitting the python's head. The python shrank its body suddenly in pain and quickly retreated.

Without hesitation, Jindou quickly threw the cinnabar in his other hand at the python. When the cinnabar fell on the python, bursts of black smoke immediately rose. The python twisted its body on the ground in pain, making a hissing sound from its mouth.

Wei Qing, Xie Xiaohu and others took advantage of this opportunity, holding their swords, and chopped at the python together. The python screamed, shook violently for a few times, and then became silent.

Xie Xiaohu kicked the python's body and said, "Fortunately, this python has stayed here. Otherwise, if it had entered the county town, I don't know how many people would have been killed."

Jindou was moved when he heard this and said to Wei Qing, "Second brother, you said that the python has been staying here all the time. When it sees someone coming, it comes out to attack. Is it guarding something nearby?"

After Jindou said this, not only Wei Qing, but also several other Jinyiwei nodded repeatedly.

Xie Xiaohu slapped his head hard: "Oh, yes, why didn't I think of this?"

Jindou sniffed carefully, pointed to the north, frowned and said, "There's a strong demonic aura over there, second brother, let's go take a look."

Wei Qing looked to the north, where was the fiefdom of King Huaiyang. He thought about it and nodded: "Okay."

Jindou followed the evil spirit and led everyone north. Wei Qing followed closely beside Jindou, concentrating on observing his surroundings as he walked. Xie Xiaohu and several Jinyiwei behind him also concentrated their attention and were very careful not to be careless.

Everyone moved forward. Deep in the valley, where the forest was thick and the grass was lush, the demonic aura began to grow stronger. Jindou, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and stopped everyone from going forward.

Reaching out and pushing aside the dense floating grass, everyone saw a huge cave entrance between the rocks and the thick grass in front of them. The diameter of the cave entrance was more than two feet, and it was obvious that this was a place where large living creatures often came and went.

At this time, cold air was coming out of the cave entrance, and a hissing sound could be heard from inside from time to time. A fishy wind blew, and the cave was filled with evil spirits, which was extremely terrifying.

When Xie Xiaohu and others saw the scene in front of them, they couldn't help but become extremely nervous and their nerves were tense.

"Second brother, those snakes in Qingshui County should have come out from here," Jindou said, looking at the cave entrance.

Wei Qing also looked at the cave entrance, frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Brother, Qingshui County is located in a plain, and usually there are very few snakes. Now there are so many of them all at once. Someone must have done it on purpose." Jindou carefully observed the cave entrance and continued, "I think someone must have used magic to raise a large number of snakes, and then used magic to control them, making them obey their commands!"

"Sir, let's light a fire at the entrance of the cave and burn all these poisonous snakes to death," said Xie Xiaohu.

"No," Wei Qing shook his head and said, "This is the land of the Huaiyang King. If the Huaiyang King's people find out, it will be troublesome."

"Yes, we can't kill these snakes now," Jindou also said.

"Why can't we kill him?" Xie Xiaohu asked with a puzzled look on his face.

At this time, Wei Qing was also looking at the golden beans with a puzzled look on his face.

"If we kill all the snakes now, the person who controls the snakes with magic will definitely find out, so we must not act rashly now," said Jindou.

Xie Xiaohu felt that what Jindou said made sense, and he couldn't help but look at Wei Qing: "Sir, what should we do now?"

Wei Qing pondered for a moment, then said, "Let's go back to the county government office first and make plans later."
