A few dozen miles west of Gusu County, there is a continuous large mountain range. The mountains are steep and deep, and their colors are gray, so they are named Qionglong Mountain.

At the foot of the mountains, the lakes are scattered, deep and quiet, making people feel refreshed.

After climbing over Qionglong Mountain, you will be in the west with a radiant radius of Taihu Lake thousands of miles away.

Su Chen dared not go to Taihu Lake.

It was the nest of the Giant Whale Gang, one of the five major gangs in Wujun. It gathered tens of thousands of water bandits and occupied Taihu Lake. It often robbed the passing merchants in the rivers of Wujun and bullied the fishermen in Wujun townships. Even the Wujun Prefect's Mansion could not do anything to them.

Qionglong Mountain is far away from Gusu County, and the deep mountains and old forests are extremely desolate and uninhabited.

The ordinary hunters in Gusu County dare not go deep into the mountains and forests, but just hunt on the edge of the periphery.

Su Chen was wearing the apprentice of the King of Medicine apprentice, carrying a large medicine basket, holding a hatchet in his hand, pushing away the messy shrubs, cutting through cliffs and valleys, looking for traces of the golden-ringed poisonous snake.

In the scorching sun, poisonous insects are bitten from time to time in the old forest.

Su Chen picked some anti-virus herbs and crushed them into fishy and irritating green juice herbs, and applied them to the exposed areas of his body to dispel poisonous insects and mosquitoes and ants.

When he was thirsty, he drank a few sips of mountain stream spring water.

When I am hungry, I pick wild fruits, hunt pheasants, rabbits, and smear salt and roast them. I eat them and fill my stomach.

Su Chen has been practicing entry-level martial arts for more than five months in Yaowang Villa. He is no longer the weak boy of the past. He has at least fifty or sixty kilograms of strength in his hands. He can cut off small trees with one knife and walk through mountains and rivers and stroll like flying.

While staying overnight, raise a bonfire to prevent jackals from approaching.

Sometimes when you are lucky, Su Chen can still pick one or two low-level body-tempering herbs such as red blood vines, snake tendon grass, bear fur, etc. under streams and rocks, which have the effects of replenishing blood, strengthening tendons, and nourishing skin.

These low-level body-tempering herbs are worth at least 100 to 200 coins in the pharmacies in Gusu County. If the year exceeds ten years and is even more valuable, then at least 500 coins in copper coins, or even more than one tael of silver.

These were undoubtedly unexpected surprises for Su Chen, and they were picked and threw them into the medicine basket.

After returning, use it to temper your lower dantian, cultivate more essence and blood, and improve the cultivation of the lower dantian.

Su Chen is still quite different from the state of initial formation of the lower dantian. If he does not need herbal medicine to assist in body tempering, it will probably take two years to initially cultivate the lower dantian and become a third-rate warrior.

With these low-level body quenching herbs, it is probably much faster.

As long as you become a third-rate warrior, your strength will increase greatly, even in the Medicine King Gang's Servant Hall, you can at least become a low-level deacon, rather than the lowest-level Servant disciple and an unknown minion.

There are tigers, leopards, jackals and wolves in the deep mountains. Low-level apprentices are very dangerous in the mountains. Su Chen takes the risk to find the golden-ringed snake, but he dares not stay in the mountains for a long time. If he loses his life, it will be in vain to pick more herbs.

"No matter what the result of this entry into the mountain, even if the experiment was not successful and he was finally eliminated by his master and became a disciple of a serious servant, I still have to practice hard and become a third-rate warrior as soon as possible! In this way, my strength can at least be as strong as that of the disciples of the Sword Protection Hall, and no worse than other brothers."

Su Chen carried a heavy medicine basket and luggage, rubbed sweat dripping on his forehead, and encouraged himself.

...

Su Chen walked in the deep mountains and forests for nearly two days, overcoming obstacles in the mountains. He was a little tired and sat on a rock to rest, wiping the sweat on his cheeks with a coarse cloth towel.

After two days, he didn't get much. He just picked a few cheap herbs occasionally, which added up to dozens of copper plates, and no trace of the golden ring poisonous snake was found.

Other poisonous snakes such as bamboo leaf green, mountain snakes, etc. have also encountered several. Unfortunately, the venom of different poisonous snakes is different and cannot be universal. Only the toxicity of the golden ring snake is relatively special, which is effective in assisting the practice of "Tortoise Breath Art" and closing the six consciousnesses.

Su Chen looked depressed and a little depressed.

This time I asked Master Li Kui for three days off. If I could not find the Golden Ring Poisonous Snake in Qionglong Mountain before sunset tonight, I would have to prepare to return to Yaowang Villa tomorrow. I am afraid I will return without success this time.

Su Chen rested for a while, and seeing that it was getting late, he recovered his strength and seized the time to continue searching.

Passing a mountain hundreds of feet high.

Suddenly, his eyes swept over a huge towering ancient fir tree in front of him. Under the ancient fir tree, a wild ginseng grew beautifully.

At the top of it is a string of dazzling red ginseng grains, exuding a faint and attractive medicinal fragrance. Judging from the number of leaves, it is estimated that it will be in 20 or 30 years.

"Is this wild ginseng?!"

Su Chen couldn't help but be stunned, followed by surprise.

The higher the year of wild ginseng, the better the effect of replenishing qi, and the more expensive it is.

In the county pharmacy, a ten-year-old plant costs one tael of silver, and a twenty-thirty-year-old plant costs at least three or five taels of silver. This is simply a sky-high price for him and he dare not expect it at all.

His bluestone tear disease requires such wild ginseng medicine in case of tears, which can replenish vitality. When picking this wild ginseng, at least he will not have to worry about not having money to buy ginseng medicine next time he develops his illness.

Also, in addition to replenishing vitality, wild ginseng is actually an important qi-refining medicinal material.

When practicing the Dantian during practice, you can use ginseng medicine to enhance the sense of qi and cultivate the internal true qi. This means that if he has not been sick, then when he is practicing the Dantian during practice, he can also use this wild ginseng.

It would be a waste of time to pick such a wild ginseng worth three to five taels of silver.

Su Chen was very happy and pulled out a herbicide knife tied on his calf, and was about to go forward to pick the wild ginseng.

At this moment, he was surprised to find that there were a few shallow white marks on the ground near the wild ginseng, which seemed to be the spit of snakes.

"Snake saliva?... Could it be that there are snakes that appear near wild ginseng?"

Su Chen suddenly felt alert and did not dare to get close to wild ginseng.

He carefully observed the grass around the ancient fir tree and soon discovered that a foot behind the wild ginseng was hidden by a pile of grass, and there was a deep cave bigger than a sea bowl.

In the dark cave, two vicious lights can be seen faintly, flashing, and occasionally a trace of snake smell will be scattered with the wind.

"Viol snake!"

When Su Chen saw the faint light, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he was so shocked that he took a breath of cold air.

Sure enough, there was a poisonous snake lurking nearby. Fortunately, I didn't go over rashly just now. Otherwise, if it suddenly pounced out and bitten it, I would definitely be in trouble.

Looking at the entrance of this cave that is half a foot wide, the poisonous snake inside is probably not a good person.

It is hiding here, could it be that it uses this ginseng medicinal fruit as bait to prey on other prey?

This medicine fragrance will attract many greedy pheasants and hares to come for food.

Su Chen patiently guarded for half an hour, trying to see if the poisonous snake would come out. As a result, he found that the poisonous snake was better than his. He was actually still moving in the cave, guarding the wild ginseng.

Su Chen and others were anxious and didn't want to wait any longer.

It will soon be dark, and he will be even more unsightly when it gets dark. He is definitely not the opponent of this poisonous snake. And tomorrow morning, he will set off back to Yaowang Villa and have no time to waste with this poisonous snake. Otherwise, it will be unhappy and punished by Master Li Kui, and it will be more than worth the loss.

Su Chen looked around the ancient fir tree and saw a lot of dead grass and leaves on the ground, and he immediately became calculating.

He collected a small pile of dead grass, took out a flint from his arms, and ignited the dead grass. The dead grass raised a pungent and unpleasant smoke, and quickly suffused the smoke with the leaves of the big tree and poured it into the cave.

Snakes are most afraid of smoke, so they can definitely force them out.

Sure enough, there was movement in the cave in a while. The poisonous snake was so smoked that it could not stay in the cave.

"Sher~~!"

A poisonous snake more than meter long jumped out of the cave, spitting out the snake's letter in a mess, and a pair of vicious snake eyes stared at Su Chen not far away.

The golden and black rings are interspersed, and it is a golden ring and snake king.

It guarded this place, occupied the mountain and was king for several years, and hunted countless creatures. Unexpectedly, it was a very shameful and humiliating person to be driven out of the cave by the guy in front of him with pungent poisonous smoke. It had to teach this guy a lesson.

"Golden Ring Snake King!"

After Su Chen poured the smoke into the cave, he quickly retreated several feet away from the cave. Seeing the huge golden ring snake coming out, he couldn't help but take a breath of air conditioning in shock.

He went deep into the mountains for two days, but he could not find any trace of the golden ring poisonous snake.

Unexpectedly, in this moment, not only did I find a wild ginseng that was 20 to 30 years old, but also a golden-ringed poisonous snake. I was very lucky.

What only scared Su Chen was that this was an adult golden-ringed venomous snake, round and thicker than his thighs, at least ten and a half feet long, and several times taller and more powerful than him.

It made him feel awe.

This should be the King of Snakes, who is extremely domineering. If it bites it, even an adult jackal will die.

Su Chen felt frightened and almost wanted to escape.

He is now just a small warrior who is not in the right place, not even a third-rate warrior. He only wants to catch an ordinary golden ring snake to extract venom, but he doesn't want to catch such a snake king.

However, the temptation of that wild ginseng plant is too great.

He finally went into the mountain and found a wild ginseng worth three to five taels of silver. It was so rare. After picking this wild ginseng, he would not have to worry about his bluestone tear attack in the next year.

Su Chen forcibly resisted the urge to escape, stared at the Golden Ring Snake King nervously, held the hatchet in his hand, and stepped back slowly carefully, retreating to a distance of five feet away.

As a disciple of the Medicine King Gang, he also knows a lot about snake habits.

At close range, the venomous snake bites amazingly fast. It can be culled several times in one blink, and it can even exceed the attack speed of a third-rate warrior.

The venom of the golden ring snake is very powerful. If it bites it, a strong buffalo of hundreds of pounds will fall down quickly.

Moreover, this is the King of Golden Rings. It has a huge snake body that is more than ten feet long. It is entangled by its huge snake body. Even if it is not poisoned, it will be enough to suffocate to death.

Su Chen knew his strength very well. In terms of the strength and attack speed of his attack, he was not as good as the Golden Ring Snake King. He was definitely not a match for the Golden Ring Snake at close range.

Fortunately, snakes have a fatal weakness, that is, their speed of wandering and moving is average, so they can barely compare to a child's running.

As long as you maintain a sufficient distance and attack from a distance, you will be safe.

It cannot catch up and cannot escape.

He still had a chance to kill the extremely fierce Golden Ring Snake King, which was far beyond his own strength.

...

The huge snake body of the Golden Ring Snake King was slowly swimming, and his cold snake eyes stared at the cautious opponent four or five feet away.

There are very few people in this deep mountain forest. Most of the opponents it encountered in the past were birds, rabbits, pheasants, etc., which were not worth mentioning.

Even the more vicious adult jackals and buffaloes are not their opponents, but they can be killed with one bite.

Only a very small number of ferocious eagles soaring in the sky will bring some threats and troubles to it.

However, it has always been hiding in deep caves and rarely goes out. The eagle eagle cannot find it, and it cannot do anything to it.

If the enemy is strong, it will hold its troops in the cave without moving.

Once it discovered that the prey was careless and approached the cave half a foot, it immediately rushed out, bit the prey and injected venom into it, and wrapped it tightly.

Soon, the prey will become vicious and stiff, lose its power of resistance, and be swallowed by it.

But the guy in front of him was obviously different from the opponent he had encountered before.

He actually used smoke to stimulate it and forced it out of the cave.
