I have an eternal eye

"That's a story passed down from our grandparents..."

Old Muranzai took a sip of wine, his cloudy eyes were filled with memories, and his voice became deeper.

"It is rumored that there is an evil ghost hiding in this mountain. He has the head of a tiger, the body of a human, his tongue can turn into a poisonous snake, and he has the ability to enchant people's hearts..."

"There was a child named Aguang. After a trip to the back mountain, he became very talkative when he came back. He often said that someone was calling his name..."

"Then one day, the person disappeared. People from the village went up the mountain in groups, but after searching the entire mountain, they only found one shoe."

"Some people say that he was eaten by wolves in the mountains, but more people say that he was eaten alive by the evil spirits in the mountains..."

Zhang Biao frowned slightly, "When did this happen?"

Old Cunzheng scratched his head and said, "Well... I heard from my grandfather that it seems to have happened during the Longxing period."

Longxing?

After Zhang Biao heard this, he suddenly lost interest.

Longxing was the reign name of the third emperor of the Liang Dynasty, which only lasted for more than two hundred years.

Although the specific time of the decline of the spiritual energy of this world is unknown, it was at least a thousand years ago.

Most of them are strange stories made up by the countryside.

When the old villager saw this, he couldn't help but laugh, "It's no wonder that the arrest is happening, it's just the villagers' random thoughts during their leisure time, to scare the disobedient children."

"I've heard a lot about these things. Some villages have Aunt Tiger, and some villages have Lao Yin people. They've been told about it in a decent way, but no one has ever seen it."

"Come on, come on, drink this cup again."

"Thank you Muramasa for the hospitality."

Zhang Biao paid for a few more drinks, then stood up and left, "I have something important to do, so I won't bother you."

"Yes, official business is important."

After saying goodbye, Zhang Biao walked out of the courtyard gate and walked towards the bay-red horse tied outside.

Hu Lulu...

The bay-red horse suddenly became extremely restless. Before he could get close, it struggled hard. With a twist of its neck, the horse broke free from the reins and flew away.

"Beast looking for a beating!"

Zhang Biao was so angry that he chased after him and ran out of the village in a blink of an eye.

This horse cost him ten taels of silver.

If it gets lost, the loss will be heavy.

Behind him, Lao Cun was stunned as he went out to see him off. He didn't expect such a thing to happen.

He shook his head and was about to go back to the house when he saw his grandson standing there stupidly, his eyes dull, his face pale, and cold sweat on his forehead.

"Silly boy, what's wrong?"

Old Muramasa was startled and hurriedly stepped forward to check, only to find that his grandson seemed to be suffering from hysteria, trembling all over and silent.

The daughter-in-law and grandmother ran out when they heard the noise. The family pinched each other and drank ginger soup. Only then did the little grandson regain his composure and burst into tears.

"Silly boy, what happened to you just now?"

After coaxing for a long time, Lao Muramasa asked.

Hanwa touched her tears and sobbed: "That uncle just now had a shadow behind him."

Hearing this, Old Cunzheng asked: "You must be dazzled. Everything will be fine in the future. Don't listen to Old Li Tou's nonsense stories."

After hearing this, the grandson started crying again, and what he said next made everyone's expressions change drastically.

"That shadow, ugh..."

"It's Grandma Wu!"

………………

The autumn wind is bleak and the lead clouds are dense.

There was the sound of horse hooves, dust and smoke were everywhere, and accompanied by the neighing of Kululu, the maroon shadow ran further and further away.

"Damn beast!"

Looking at the retreating figure, Zhang Biao stopped, panted heavily, and cursed several times.

He has extraordinary foot power, but how can he catch up with a galloping horse?

Besides, that beast was going crazy. Whenever he got close, he would speed up as hard as he could, and he would be left far behind after just a few rounds.

"That's all, just waste money and eliminate disaster."

At this point, Zhang Biao no longer regretted anything, calmed his breath, turned around and left the official road, heading towards the back hill of Tuwan Village.

The main purpose of his coming here is to investigate the so-called "Snake Temple".

The story of old Muramasa is just an ordinary folk tale about old people scaring children after dinner.

However, it is not without gain.

One is that there are many snakes in the back mountains. Everyone in Tuwan Village has been bitten. With accumulated experience over time, the people in the village will prepare snake medicine.

According to the tomb robber Xiaotian, they found a giant snake statue in the cave. There are many snakes in this mountain...

Maybe there is a connection.

One is Yi Chonghui. According to Old Muramasa, he is the only outsider who has appeared recently. Villagers occasionally go up the mountain to cut firewood, but they find nothing strange.

It means that the other party is operating secretly. Even if they are still on the mountain at this moment, there will not be many people.

With the thoughts in his mind changing, Zhang Biao quickened his pace, and after a while, he arrived at the back mountain.

There were originally several hills here. As the river changed its course, wind and sand eroded, creating a rugged terrain.

The trees on the mountain are dense, and because autumn has arrived, they look intertwined with yellow and green, and are mottled as far as the eye can see.

Under the weeds and vines, there are jagged rocks.

Hiss…

As soon as we entered the mountain, a black snake emerged from the cracks in the rocks. It had a triangular head and pockmarked white markings.

It looks like a venomous snake at first glance.

This snake also had a fierce temperament. It did not run away when it saw him, but raised its head high and breathed out threats.

Zhang Biao flipped his wrist and unsheathed his sword.

But just as he was about to take action, something happened in his heart, and his spiritual vision started to work.

Black-banded Iron-headed Snake (Mortal)

1. An ancient species, widely distributed in various worlds, with black stripes and white spots and tight scales.

2. Highly poisonous, ferocious in nature, and fast.

3. Someone died because of him recently.

4. There are traces of trickery in the blood...

Trickery? !

Zhang Biao's eyes suddenly lit up.

His guess was correct. There were many snakes here, and it was indeed related to the monks' inheritance.

It is possible to do things in the blood, but I don’t know what kind of magic technique it is, but it will still have an impact a thousand years later.

It even killed someone recently.

The old villager didn't mention it. He probably wasn't a villager from Tuwan, but maybe a member of the Yi Chong Hui...

Seeing him meditating, the black-striped iron-headed snake seemed to feel provoked. With a sudden flick of its entrenched body, it turned into a black shadow and rushed towards him.

Zhang Biao was well prepared. While retreating sideways in a T-step, he raised his sword horizontally.

There was a flash of cold light, and the poisonous snake had been broken into two parts, but it was still dead and still had its fangs open, spraying venom.

Zhang Biao didn't even look, and followed the winding mountain road towards the top of the mountain.

There are indeed a lot of snakes here. They emerge from the cracks in the rocks and grass from time to time along the way. Some of the colors even blend in with the surrounding environment.

Even though Zhang Biao had good eyesight, he was almost successfully attacked several times.

It took half an hour to reach the top of the mountain.

At this time, it was past noon.

The sky was covered with lead clouds and there was no sunlight.

The surrounding mountains, rivers and ravines are numerous and winding, like a nine-dragon wall.

That's why he climbed the mountain.

From the tomb rat Odaguchi, they learned that the reason why they were able to find the cave was because of the extraordinary terrain of the mountain, but because the river changed its course and destroyed the feng shui.

His master accidentally discovered it, and with the attitude of giving it a try, he searched for the dragon's cave and found the Snake Temple.

Zhang Biao followed the method he asked and first found a boulder hanging off the wall, then followed the sharp points of the boulder and looked forward.

Sure enough, there was a sunken mountain there, like a dustpan, covered with weeds and shaded by green trees.

The entrance to the cave is at the bottom of the dustpan.

Zhang Biao looked at the direction and quickly went down the mountain. In the blink of an eye, he reached the target area.

Before he got close, he hid in the grass and observed carefully with sharp eyes.

It's very quiet here, except for the autumn wind, which makes the woods rustle.

But Zhang Biao soon discovered something was fishy.

On the way into the woods, many shrub branches had been broken, and there were traces of people being dragged on the grass.

Zhang Biao was thoughtful, picked up a stone from the ground, turned his right hand, and the stone flew out.

swish swish...

Ten meters away, stones were rolling through the grass, making a lot of noise.

call out!

A sharp arrow flew over and sank into the grass.

Sure enough, there is a hidden stake!

Zhang Biao was calm and motionless.

After waiting for a long time, a man holding a crossbow carefully walked out of the dense forest.

This man was wearing night clothes, with stubble all over his face and gloomy eyes. He looked around warily before coming to the grass.

He slowly squatted down and looked down. The empty door behind him was completely exposed.

But Zhang Biao remained motionless.

The other party's whole body was tense, and he deliberately didn't look around when he squatted down. He was obviously fishing.

Sure enough, another square-faced man in black walked out of the dense forest. He shook his head and said, "Old Wan, you are too careful. How can anyone come from this barren mountain?"

The man in black named Lao Wan stood up and said in a cold voice: "The meeting leader has told us that no news about this matter should be leaked. The world is dangerous, so be careful."

"Yes Yes Yes."

The square-faced man responded with a smile, and then asked curiously: "Li Xiangzhu and the others have been digging for several days. What are they looking for?"

"How would I know?"

Lao Wan glanced coldly, "Don't ask too much, being too curious can kill people."

The square-faced man's face suddenly turned red and he cursed, "No need to talk too much about what I'm doing."

After that, he turned around and walked towards the woods, muttering as he walked: "Mom, in the wilderness, who are you flattering me for?"

At this moment, Zhang Biao suddenly jumped out.

That Lao Wan was also a good player. When he heard the wind behind him, he didn't check. Instead, he rolled forward to avoid it, then turned around and raised his crossbow.

However, it was already too late.

Zhang Biao held a horizontal sword, his feet seemed to be wading through mud, he rushed forward, swaying left and right, avoiding the crossbow arrows, and the light of the sword and the figure passed by at the same time.

Poof!

Behind him, Lao Wan clutched his neck, blood splattered, and fell to the ground twitching, his pupils gradually losing focus.

And in front, the square-faced man in black heard the noise, his expression changed drastically, and he turned around quickly.

No matter how fast Zhang Biao was, he was still ten meters away from his opponent, but he was already prepared.

With a flash of the ecstasy mirror in his left hand, the opponent suddenly lost consciousness.

Although it was only a short moment, Zhang Biao jumped into the air and flicked his right hand.

Wow…

The soul hook roared out.

Poof!

The tip of the meteor spear in front was inserted into the opponent's forehead, and he was pulled along. The brain and blood immediately splashed out, and the body fell to the ground with a plop.

After killing the hidden stake, Zhang Biao did not relax his vigilance. Seeing that there was no movement in the dense forest, he slowly stepped forward and wiped off the stain on the head of the soul lock gun with the corpse's clothes.

The cave entrance is easy to find.

Even if the other party tried to hide it and covered it with dead branches and vines, the human traces could not be hidden.

This is a herringbone mountain crevice, so dark that you can't see the depth. As soon as you enter the cave entrance, you feel unusually cool.

Suddenly, Zhang Biao's expression changed, he turned around suddenly, looked behind him in surprise, and touched his neck again.

Just now, I suddenly felt a chill in my neck.

It's like a piece of solid ice sticking to the skin.

However, there was no one behind him, only the autumn wind blew by, blowing the dead leaves in the open space.

Mom, this place is a bit evil...

Zhang Biao cursed secretly, then gained courage, stepped lightly, and gradually went deeper into the darkness.

At the entrance of the cave, a dark wind blew.

The originally dry stone wall became moist, and then white frost gradually condensed.

above the white frost,

There is a faint human handprint...

I'm testing the push today, but no new books have been added to the library yet, so I posted this chapter ahead of schedule. It's very important to advance and follow the reading now. I ask everyone to help turn over the last page even if you keep the book. Sincerely, Lao Zhang
