The prince's personal bodyguard

Chapter 112 Encountering a Snake Formation

Bai Xinyin didn't expect that her kindness would be rewarded, but she didn't know whether the reward was real or not, so she just let it go.

"Where is that stupid bird? Didn't it catch up? It's so weak!" Mu Yunxiao frowned slightly. He seemed to be talking to the air, or as if he was muttering to himself.

"You are the weak one? Your whole family..." Ah Dai was about to say something, but when he saw Mu Yunxiao's narrowed eyes, his heart tightened and the words stopped with a click.

Bai Xinyin, who was standing by, couldn't help but burst out laughing when she saw this scene. She wanted to make some jokes to ease the tense atmosphere. But when she saw Mu Yunxiao's serious expression, she immediately put away her smile and said seriously, "Oh, by the way, are you two the only ones here? Where are the others?" There was a hint of concern in her voice and her eyes were full of questions.

"They are waiting on the other side of the river." Mu Yunxiao's answer was simple and straightforward. His eyes were deep as he looked at the castle in the middle and the enemy camp that could not be crossed.

"Oh, then Ah Dai, you go and inform them, tell them not to rush in rashly, so as to avoid falling into the enemy's trap! Let them go back and wait first. After we ensure our safety, we will naturally go back to meet them." Bai Xinyin's tone was firm, but there was a hint of confusion in her eyes. The future was uncertain, and she didn't know what she would encounter next.

"Okay, I'll go first and come back to find you. Remember to leave a mark for me on the road. I'm always worried about you!" Ah Dai shook his head and flew away.

Watching Ah Dai fly away, Bai Xinyin felt a little lost.

Mu Yunxiao took Bai Xinyin's hand and scratched her palm. Bai Xinyin came to her senses, and they smiled at each other and walked forward.

After walking about two or three miles, the view ahead became wider and wider, and sand dunes began to appear. This was the edge of the desert. Mu Yunxiao suddenly stopped and looked around.

I only heard a melodious flute sound coming from behind me. At first, the sound was gentle and beautiful, but after three or four sentences, it didn't sound very serious, as if it was bewitching people and making them have evil thoughts.

Bai Xinyin's steps came to an abrupt halt. She held her breath and concentrated on trying to figure out which direction the sound of the flute came from. However, before she could turn around to find out what was going on, a rustling sound suddenly sounded, coming from far away and getting closer, as if countless invisible hands were stroking the sand, making people shudder.

The moonlight was like water, pouring on the sand. The rustling sound became clearer and Bai Xinyin's heartbeat accelerated. A thought flashed through her mind: "Snake! Snake array!" Nausea surged into her heart like a tide. Although she was not afraid of this kind of creature, her disgust and disgust for snakes were deeply engraved in her heart.

Bai Xinyin resisted the discomfort and turned to look back. She vaguely sensed a figure hiding in the tree she had just passed. The person's martial arts skills were extremely high, and he could come and go freely without Bai Xinyin noticing, which shocked her.

Damn it! You're doing these little tricks in the middle of the night. Do you think I'm easy to bully? Bai Xinyin cursed in her heart, and a nameless fire burned in her chest. She clenched her fists tightly, and sparks of anger flashed in her eyes. She would not be easily frightened by these means. She wanted to let the other party know that she was not easy to mess with!

Mu Yunxiao had a serious look on his face. The snakes were moving very fast, and they seemed to be following the instructions of the flute player. Mu Yunxiao had a sword in his hand, which was more than enough to deal with the snakes, but A Yin only had a short sword that she had taken from Dugu Feng in the hall. It might not be enough to deal with snakes at a short distance. Moreover, the snakes in the desert were all highly venomous, so he could not help but worry.

The snakes twisted their bodies uncontrollably as if they were bewitched by the flute player. Mu Yunxiao thought to himself that it was not good and wanted to retreat to kill the flute player, but it was probably too late because the man was very skilled in martial arts. He was at a loss for a moment and became more and more anxious.

Just when he was extremely anxious, suddenly, Bai Xinyin quickly took out a piece of paper from her waist. Her movements were agile and skillful. She picked up the dagger with her left hand and lifted up the paper, while muttering something in her mouth, and the sound was like a mysterious spell. Her right hand seemed to make a gesture and pointed at the paper and the person on the tree.

Then, a dazzling flash of lightning split the night sky, accompanied by a loud "boom", and in an instant, the tree and the person on the tree were engulfed in flames. The master invited by Dongfang Gu from nowhere - the snake charmer, was struck by lightning and collapsed to the ground without even a groan, and was charred to death, leaving only a puff of smoke.

The tree also caught fire, and the raging flames lit up the surrounding area as bright as day.

Mu Yunxiao was stunned by the scene before him. He had never seen Bai Xinyin use talisman paper. He only heard Qingyun tell him a few words that A Yin learned to draw talismans in Baiyun Temple, and the effect was pretty good, but he had never seen it before. It was good enough to be able to draw the shape in three months, but how could it be powerful? And her courage at the critical moment surprised Mu Yunxiao.

His Ayin always brings him constant surprises.

At this time, the flute sound that bewitched the snakes had disappeared, and the snakes began to scatter in panic. However, Bai Xinyin did not stop. She quickly took out a piece of paper, muttered something, and pointed the paper at the snakes. There was a loud bang, a deafening "boom", and the snakes were chopped to pieces. The air was suddenly filled with the disgusting smell of roasted snake meat.

Bai Xinyin cursed angrily: "You disgusting things actually dare to come out and scare me, your aunt! I will burn you every time I see you in the future! If you are not afraid of my Five Thunder Talisman, just try again!" Her eyes were full of anger.

The snake king that was not hit by the sword at the back may have understood human nature and was awake at this moment. It felt Bai Xinyin's anger and trembled with fear. It led the other snakes and fled at the fastest speed with a "swish".

Their figures quickly disappeared in the grass and sand, as if driven by fear, desperately searching for a safe place.

"Ah! Snake!" When the snake was crawling towards the sand pile, several black figures suddenly jumped out.

Then a few more jumped out, as if they were bitten by snakes. Some jumped around, while others struggled for a few times before falling to the ground.

Bai Xinyin and Mu Yunxiao looked at each other. They thought that this was an ambush set by Dongfang Gu in the sand pile. It seemed that Princess Jialan had not lied to them.

The other side would first send out a group of snakes, and after they were bitten by the snakes, the people hiding in the sand would wait for an opportunity to chase and kill them to eliminate future troubles.

Dongfang Gu's arrangement for tonight was meticulous and well thought out. If it were anyone else, they would have been trapped tonight, but they happened to run into Bai Xinyin and Mu Yunxiao.

Bai Xinyin used the Five Thunder Talisman to blast the snake formation, and the snakes looked for a place to hide. When they drilled into the sand, they encountered the Night Man who was ambushing in the sand. The snakes couldn't drill down, so they started to bite people, "Damn it, you're taking up our snake space, can't I bite you to death?"

"We are afraid of that girl, so why should we be afraid of you? We are the most poisonous snakes in the desert. If you run into us, you will be dead in no time."

"Still pushing, still pushing, if you block my way, I'll bite you..."

The snakes kept complaining because no one wanted to be a roasted snake!

"Hahaha, I didn't expect Dongfang Gu to be so smart. He didn't think of this. Big snake, bite them to death, I leave it to you!" Bai Xinyin looked at it at this time and finally felt relieved. He felt that these snakes were a little cute and not so annoying. "Bite them to death, and I won't use the Five Thunder Talisman to bombard you in the future."

The snakes seemed to understand: "Okay!"

They really didn't let any of the men in black go. For a while, there were wailing and corpses everywhere.
