Half of these guards were deployed in the dense forest below the snow line. Unexpectedly, it was not the enemy, but a large number of snakes. Of course, the guards in the dense forest had no way to deal with them, so they were bitten one after another.

The guard leader ordered the trumpet to be sounded and the guards everywhere retreated.

When the guards heard the horn, they ran up the mountain.

The guard leader counted the guards and took a breath. He sent thirty or forty guards to serve as guards in the woods, and less than ten of them came back. The others were definitely not in love with the snake, because there was no problem of fighting with the snake. If they did not come back, there was only one possibility, that was, they fell down.

The leader of the guard immediately ordered the commanders to send orders, and everyone retreated to the top of the hill, forming a tight protective circle near the rocks, guarding the governor.

Because there are only seventy or eighty, they can only lay a protective circle around the huge mountaintop rock, and there are at least five or six steps away from each other, so they cannot form too tight protection.

The following scene made everyone's scalp numb. They saw snakes climbing up from the woods at the foot of the mountain, densely packed with mountains and fields, making a terrifying hissing sound under the moonlight.

The guards all pulled out their swords and waited for the battle. The snake came very quickly and approached their protective circle in a short while.

As we approached, the guard leader issued a loud order, and could use any means to attack, so someone released hidden weapons. However, for this army of thousands of snakes all over the mountains, these hidden weapons shot out were like stone cows entering the sea. They could hardly stop the snakes from swimming forward.

This situation was already expected by Yi Xingchen, because the hexagram that appears in this hexagram is Xunmu hexagram. The eight trigrams mean snakes. Therefore, Yi Xingchen had already thought that it might be a snake. But he did not expect that so many snakes would appear.

Seeing the dense snakes rushing up like a tide, Governor Li on the cliff couldn't help but change his face. He had never been like this, but this time it was different. He was facing a huge number of terrifying snakes.

There were only dozens of guards, and under the crazy attack of snakes, guards fell from time to time. Because there were too many snakes, they could not kill them. Each guard fell down countless corpses of snakes in front of each guard. However, the snakes behind them rushed forward without any obstacles. As long as they were bitten, they would soon be poisoned. Therefore, although the guards had excellent martial arts skills, they could not fight against thousands of poisonous snakes. They could only slowly retreat, further narrow the encirclement and cover each other. They retreated to the cliff of Governor Li and others.

The guards fell down one after another, and the protective circle became smaller and smaller. Yi Xingchen knew that he could not wait any longer. He shouted: "Sir, I found a cave where we hid in the cave."

Governor Li can command the army to fight against thousands of troops and horses, but facing tens of thousands of snakes, he is helpless. This is not the only way to fight out, either hide or lie down.

When he heard Yi Xingchen say there was a cave, Governor Li said anxiously: "Okay, let them come together. Let's all hide in the cave."

Yi Xingchen said: "No, that cave is only enough for two or three people to hide."

A place where two or three people can only hide is not a cave, but a cave. Governor Li followed Yi Xingchen down the rock and walked around the steep side of the rock. Sure enough, there was a concave at the bottom of the rock. This place was very shallow. Not to mention three people, it would be good to hide two people. However, the space around was still too large and it was not enough to resist the poisonous snake.

Yi Xingchen hurriedly said to the guard leader: "Come on, come and carry the stones around, build them into a protective fortress."

The guard leader agreed and tried hard to bring big stones from all over the world to build a protective wall, revealing a passageway. At this moment, the guards had been bitten by poisonous snakes one after another, and had retreated to a place less than ten steps away from them. Only the last seven or eight guards were left, and they were still fighting with the poisonous snakes as crazy as they were fighting to the death. The rest of the guards had been bitten and poisoned.

The leader of the guard said to Governor Li and Yi Xingchen: "Two sirs, hurry up and hide in, I'll guard the entrance of the cave."

Governor Li crawled into the grotto, and Yi Xingchen followed him in. The guard leader also retreated to the entrance of the cave. The grotto was too small, and the three of them could hardly turn around when they entered, so the guard leader could only guard the entrance of the cave.

He held the long sword in his hand, panting, looking at the dense group of snakes, and found that his hands were trembling. He had never been like this before when facing countless powerful enemies, but this time, he could not stop his hands holding the sword trembling.

Governor Li sighed and said to Qingcheng: "I'm sorry, Brother Yi, I didn't listen to you. It turns out that you are right. Your fortune telling is really accurate, but I was once again stubborn and caused so many brothers to die because of me."

Yi Xingchen had already cursed the stubborn old man and his ancestors all over the 18th generation in his belly, but what's the use? However, Yi Xingchen was not desperate. Because that hexagram only represents the object as a great bad, and the subsequent process represents the small good and good good, and the final result is a small bad bad, which is not fatal. Therefore, as long as you resist the big bad, you can welcome the small good bad luck, and the danger will pass at that time.

Therefore, Yi Xingchen said to Governor Li: "You don't have to blame yourself. Natural disasters are too difficult to prevent. We should find a way to overcome the disaster."

"How can so many poisonous snakes survive the disaster? They can't kill them at all."

Yi Xingchen said: "Yes, why are there so many snakes coming at once? It's so strange."

Yi Xingchen remembered that in Jin Daxia's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" that he once saw, Ouyang Ke and Ouyang Feng's uncle and nephew are good at driving poisonous snakes to launch attacks. Could it be that there are such people who drive poisonous snakes to assassinate Governor Li?

This possibility is very high, but they have no way to verify it now, because there are poisonous snakes all over the mountains and fields, and they cannot break through and find the snake slave behind who drives the poisonous snakes to attack.

The remaining seven or eight guards finally fell down one after another.

When the last guard fell, Yi Xingchen knew that the doomsday was coming. The only person who could stop the doomsday was the guard leader holding a long sword at the door. But the guard leader himself was so scared that he could hardly even hold the sword.

Governor Li actually understood that the guard leader could not resist these tens of thousands of poisonous snakes.

The poisonous snake finally swarmed towards them. The guard leader roared wildly, and the long sword in his hand flew, forming light and shadow. The group of snakes rushing up was chopped by him, and the bodies were broken into two pieces flew around. However, the snake behind was not scared by this momentum at all, and then rushed forward like crazy.

Yi Xingchen kept listening and observing, and finally, he heard the screams from the guard leader. It was obvious that he was bitten by a poisonous snake.

The snake venom attacked very quickly. In a moment, the guard leader quickly felt numb, dizzy, and his strength was quickly lost. He smiled sadly and turned to Governor Li and said, "Sir, take care..."

Then, the leader of the guard collapsed on the ground, and countless snakes rushed up to bite his body. Yi Xingchen had already pulled out the dagger that had been seized from the boots, which was as sharp as mud, which had been seized from the palace master Yin.

The guard leader fell at the entrance of the cave, blocking most of the hole, and he could only drill through the remaining half of the hole and the cracks in the rock.

Yi Xingchen pressed his hand against the back of the guard leader's body, and the poisonous snake bit his arm.

However, he fell in love with him at first sight with protective gloves. The snake's poisonous fangs could not be pierced. Yi Xingchen could not feel any signs of pain or poisoning, and was overjoyed. He used his left hand to attract the poisonous snake to bite, and slashed the snake with his right hand, splitting it into two segments. Because the body of the guard leader blocked most of the hole entrance, there were not many snakes that could enter from the hole entrance.

Governor Li, who was behind him, saw Yi Xingchen's left hand being bitten by the snake constantly. He was crazy and cut off the snake that bit his arm with a dagger in his hand. He sighed in his heart: "It's over, it's a matter of time before Yi Xingchen falls down. What tricks do he have? The next one is himself!"

Although Governor Li led thousands of troops, he was just a civil servant and did not understand martial arts. Faced with so many poisonous snakes, he had no choice but to sit and wait for death.

Just as Governor Li was waiting for Yi Cheng to fall and he was greeting the poisonous fangs of the poisonous snakes, he found that Yi Xingchen was slashing the poisonous snakes like crazy, but there was no sign of falling. He couldn't help but wonder.

Many poisonous snakes were killed by Yi Xingchen, but instead blocked the remaining half of the cave entrance. In this way, very few poisonous snakes behind them could attack. In the end, the poisonous snake's corpse sealed the entrance, and no poisonous snake could attack in.

Because the entrance of the cave was blocked, the light could not be shined in. The moonlight outside was like water. However, the cave was so dark that nothing could be seen, only a strong smell of blood.

Governor Li heard Yi Xingchen gasping and asked, "Brother Yi, how are you?"

Yi Xingchen was already exhausted. He was trying his best to kill the poisonous snakes. With his hands' defense at first sight, he avoided the poisonous snake's fangs. Because the hole was small, and he attracted the poisonous snake with his arms, the poisonous snake did not hit his head and body. In this way, he was not bitten by the snake. I don't know if his arms were bitten by countless poisonous snakes. If that were the case, it would be a matter of time before he fell down.

He was so tired all day that he couldn't even speak, and sat on the ground, panting.

Governor Li couldn't see Yi Xingchen's expression and movements. Hearing that Yi Xingchen's breathing was so rapid, he thought he was poisoned, and his life was in an instant, and he couldn't help but shed tears: "Brother Yi, it's all my fault that I didn't listen to you, you were tired of dying for me..."
