Chapter 365 The Girl Who Raised a Snake

"Um?"

The girl hugging the tree was originally looking at these people from outside the mountains curiously, but she suddenly heard Hu Ma's reminder.

She was also obviously startled, turned her little head, and looked towards the tree.

But at this same moment, the strange green snake coiled above her head suddenly moved, as fast as a green lightning bolt, and suddenly rushed to the side of the girl's white neck.

Seeing this, Hu Ma's heart sank, but she still held it back and did not go to save people casually.

Along the way, he had already asked Lao Abacus to find out clearly that the living customs of the witches in the mountains were very different from those of the Xia people outside. Therefore, he had to abide by various rules when entering the mountains to avoid being inexplicable. Offended people.

Now that I want to save this girl, I am afraid that I will have some trouble. The distance is too close. Whether it is the ghost climbing the steps or the five-thunder golden toad roar, it will be slow to use it. If I want to pick up the knife and throw it, I have not specially trained to be accurate. If you accidentally hurt that girl, you'll be in trouble.

Besides, even though it was just a glance, he could tell that this girl looked weird, and she might have some abilities after climbing such a high tree.

 But when he reacted, Zhou Datong and others couldn't help but exclaimed.

 Huma was not sure, and they were even less sure.

Amidst the exclamations of everyone below, the strange green snake bounced down from the tree with a swishing sound, and touched the girl's cheek, but it did not bite anyone, but exposed its entire body.

Only then could I see clearly that the snake was as thick as a human arm and nearly two feet long. Its front half rushed into the basket on the girl's back, and its back half slowly slid down from the tree trunk, curling up Inside, there was actually a herb that looked like Ganoderma lucidum rolled inside.

The girl also happily took the herbs from its body. The latter half of its body climbed into the basket, and its head poked out of the basket, vomiting condolences and trembling.

 The girl patted its triangular head and said cheerfully: "Good boy, don't be afraid of heights next time..."

The voice is soft and waxy, and the tongue seems to have two more curves than other people outside. It sounds weird, but crisp and sweet.

　　‘Is this snake collecting medicine for her? ’

Hu Ma was slightly surprised when she saw this scene. Fortunately, she was not a child in the world. Although she warned him, she did not intervene. Otherwise, inexplicable karma and grudges would have appeared.

Just as she was thinking about it, the girl was already hugging the big tree again, and slipped out of the tree little by little. She glanced at Hu Ma and the others, and then walked over.

Her straw sandals were tied to the basket behind her, swaying, but she was not busy putting them on. Her two feet and slender ankles just stepped on the withered grass and thorns in the forest.

When she arrived about two or three feet away, she stopped, suddenly tilted her head, looked at Hu Ma and the others, frowned slightly, then turned around, picked through the bushes nearby, and folded the A long branch cracked twice in the air.

After doing this, he aimed at Hu Ma and others again, and walked forward. The closer he got, the branches in his hands raised up, as if they were about to be drawn towards Hu Ma.

 “Hey, little girl…”

Zhou Datong hurriedly called out to her, but the girl ignored her. She just walked closer and closer, her brows furrowed and her face sank, looking rather ferocious.

 Everyone around was a little surprised. Could it be that just because he reminded the girl to be careful, he had already offended her?

 Just, what should I do now?

 Zhou Datong, Zhou Liang, and Zhao Zhu looked at each other, feeling a little panicked. In normal times, if someone was doing harm to Hu Ma, they would definitely draw the knife directly, but now they are facing such a girl...

Just as he was thinking about it, Hu Ma, who was standing in front, remained motionless and allowed the girl to approach. However, the stick she raised in her hand did not hit Hu Ma. She just opened a pair of pretty eyes and interacted with her. Hu Ma looked at each other.

Immediately afterwards, she had already passed by Hu Ma, took two quick steps, went to the back of a nearby tree covered with vines, and whipped it hard.

While beating him, he also cursed a few words, but they were not official words and could not be distinguished clearly.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　…

As she was lashing, there was a sudden movement behind the vines, and a big yellow dog with white spots on its forehead emerged from the grass, whining in its mouth and preparing to bite.

But the girl just waved the tree branch and hit it fiercely. However, the tree branch was light and the blow was naturally not heavy. However, the big yellow dog seemed to be very frightened. After being hit twice, he put his tail between his legs and whimpered. Whimpering, he ran all the way deeper into the forest.

Hu Ma and the others looked carefully and saw that the dog was the yellow dog that had appeared beside them twice and barked twice at their group.

After beating the yellow dog away, the girl threw down the branch in her hand, tilted her head and looked at Hu Ma and the others. When she looked at them, the green snake poked its head out of the bamboo basket behind her.

He and the girl maintained the same posture, looking at each other curiously. The scene was both weird and unified.

Hu Ma looked at her, raised his hands and saluted, and said: "This girl, we came from outside the mountains to do business. We are not familiar with the place. We didn't know that this was..."

"whee…"

Before Hu Ma could finish speaking, the girl suddenly spoke, imitating the way Hu Ma had just spoken: "Be careful."

When she was comforting the little snake on the tree just now, her words were tactful, soft and clear, with a standard shaman accent, but now she deliberately learned the official Mandarin from outside, just two words, but it was really... cute.

 After finishing speaking, he didn’t say much to Hu Ma and the others. He just turned around with bare feet and jumped into the woods beside the road, and his figure quickly disappeared.

"What is this?" Zhou Datong and the others were all confused. They felt confused and looked at each other. Together with the donkey, they looked like four stupid geese.

Even Hu Ma only guessed a little bit and was not sure. However, he looked at the old abacus beside him and whispered: "Brother, what happened just now, can you tell me?"

 “The little girl is so kind…”

Old Abacus also looked at the place where the little girl disappeared, and whispered: "She helped us solve a problem, and I don't know how much trouble has been saved..."

 “Solution to a problem?”

After hearing this, several guys became a little nervous. They looked around hurriedly, only to see that the forest was empty. The twilight mist was still there, but the weird mist and the weird atmosphere that had enveloped their hearts before had dissipated. A lot.

“As soon as we entered the forest, we were stared at.”

 Lao Abacus also lowered his voice, as if he was a little frightened, and whispered: "I only confirmed it when I saw the dog appear for the second time. It was no ordinary dog."

 “It’s a voodoo dog.”

"Some witches are good at this. They use refined voodoo insects to bite the dog. The dog also becomes a voodoo dog. Driven by the person who inflicted the voodoo, it comes and barks at people three times and one time. We were frightened. Two calls were made to drive away the soul. After the third call, we were also bewitched."

　　　…”

 “You actually have such a method?”

Zhou Datong and others thought of the dog just now, and indeed felt it was a bit strange, and they were all frightened and uneasy.

Hu Ma frowned and said, "Since you saw it, why didn't you warn it in advance? Just now I was confident and chopped it off with one knife."

“Thankfully you saw the look in my eyes and didn’t take action.”

Old Abacus said hurriedly: "Just now, we were in the deep mountains and old forests. There was a weird atmosphere everywhere. Who knows what weird things are hidden around us? With your move, I am afraid that you will attract something and greet us."

“Besides, since that dog is a poisonous dog, if you really chop it up, you might get caught in the trap. It’s hard to prevent a witch from planting a poisonous poison. How do you know that someone didn’t send this dog here to kill you on purpose?”

　　　…”

 “Is there anyone so evil?”

Hu Ma thought about the dog's appearance and said, "Then what will happen if it is poisoned?"

 Lao Abacus shook his head and said, "I don't know."

“This poison dog barked three times. It’s just a method of poisoning, just like poisoning. But what will happen after being poisoned depends on what kind of poison the other party has poisoned!”

　　　…”

As they said that, they looked up and saw a deep forest with lush leaves. According to their original plan, they should have arrived at the blood mine by noon today, but now, they had to postpone it until dusk. Still no trace.

Walking on the wrong path in the mountains is common, so it’s not surprising, but this inexplicable encounter with people and dogs makes people feel uneasy.

Originally, the trees, weeds, vines and rocks looked like everything was normal, but now as the sun sets and the light dims, in the eyes of everyone, it becomes more and more weird. There is no sound at all, and there is a vague fishy smell. , as if overflowing from the depths of the forest.

“It seems like it’s not easy to take over this blood food mine…”

Huma sighed lowly and said: "The little girl just reminded us to be careful, not just to tell us to be careful about the voodoo dog, she also wanted to tell us that there will be trouble ahead..."

“I don’t know where she comes from, but she seems to have some skills...”

　　　…”

“I shouldn’t. Before I left, I calculated for myself that I would make a fortune on this trip...”

 Lao Abacus also clearly realized what was going on. He muttered to himself in a low voice, turned to look at Hu Ma, and said, "Brother Hu, there is something wrong with the movement in this mountain..."

Hu Ma said: "Is it coming towards us?"

 “Mostly.”

Old Abacus said: "Even if there is a witch practicing Gu nearby and he doesn't want strangers to come in, he will give a warning and let people go around. But the Gu dog was sent out out of nowhere without even saying hello. It's too overbearing. some…"

Hu Ma nodded, suddenly raised his voice, and shouted into the forest: "Which friend is there in front of you, but there is a misunderstanding?"

 “If you don’t mind it, if you show up and meet me, what can you say?”
