Chapter 186 Lan Chengen's Suspicion
Chapter 186 Lan Chengen's Suspicion
Concubine Rou couldn't believe her ears, so she repeatedly confirmed with her subordinates and the answers were all the same.
This is incredible! How could so many snakes be killed without anyone noticing?
"Come on, let's go take a look!"
"Yes!"
Concubine Rou and her men hurried to the snake pit. When she saw the scene in front of her, she swayed and almost fainted.
There is no living snake in the snake pit. All of them are dead, and the snakes' bodies are incomplete. A large part of them seems to have been melted. At this moment, the snake pit is emitting a disgusting stench.
"How could this happen? Who did this?!"
Concubine Rou was furious. She turned around and stared at her subordinates behind her with sharp eyes.
"I...I don't know."
"I don't know? How could there be no news about such a big thing? Didn't you all hear it?"
"My Lord, we usually don't dare to get too close to the snake pit. We patrol a little further away. I guess there are a lot of poisonous snakes in this snake pit. I didn't expect someone to have such ability."
Concubine Rou remained silent, knowing that her subordinates were right.
Most of the snakes here are extremely poisonous. If you are bitten by one, you may die if you don't get timely treatment.
I guess the person who can kill all the snakes in this snake pit at once must not be a simple person.
Interesting, I never thought that such a powerful person could exist in such a small southern Xinjiang.
Concubine Rou closed her eyes and quickly calmed herself down.
These snakes were all bred by her. It took more than ten years of development to reach the current scale. Now one third of them were lost in a flash. He really didn't feel heartbroken at all.
"Go, check out the other two snake pits nearby."
"It's the master!"
Concubine Rou had a hunch that this man was coming for all the snakes on the island and would definitely not just destroy a snake pit.
So she summoned all the death warriors on the island, surrounded the other two snake pits, and did not allow them to leave.
Then send the remaining soldiers to conduct a carpet search on the island, determined to find the evildoer.
Yan Yu clenched his fists nervously. If these experts continued to search like this, he and Song Qingwan would definitely be caught.
Song Qingwan, on the other hand, looked calm and composed, not seeming panicked at all.
"Yan Yu, go meet up with the Pei brothers, tell them the situation here, and then quickly prepare to retreat."
"What about you? Aren't you coming with us?"
"Now that we are here, we cannot give up halfway. I must kill all these snakes."
"But what if you get caught by yourself?"
"Don't worry, they can't catch me."
"But…"
"Don't say but, there is no time. Hurry up! If the Pei brothers are caught by them, it will be difficult for them to escape."
Yan Yu took out another exquisite dagger from his arms and handed it to Song Qingwan.
"Take it. You can use it as a self-defense tool in case of any emergency."
"I know. You have to be careful."
"Well, I'll rush over to join you after I tell them the situation."
"Okay, I know, go ahead."
Yan Yu nodded and disappeared into the night in a flash.
Song Qingwan stood up and walked towards the snake pit. She believed that if there was another snake pit, it would definitely be near this one that had been destroyed.
As Song Qingwan got closer to the snake pit, she felt the danger.
She found that the group of people in front of her were all dressed in black. Song Qingwan was shocked and quickly dodged and hid in the space.
If he guessed correctly, these people were the Lan family's assassins. Each of these assassins were highly skilled in martial arts, and it would be impossible to defeat them in a head-on confrontation.
After much deliberation, Song Qingwan decided to use a dirty trick.
So she took out a lot of sleeping pills from the space, and sprayed them evenly not far behind the man in black under the cover of the space.
Then she took out the drug to induce snakes to go into estrus and spread it evenly on the ground. After doing all this, Song Qingwan entered the space and waited quietly.
Soon the men in black began to fall one by one, and the others who did not fall began to draw their swords and looked around vigilantly.
But gradually they found something wrong. Although they did not fall down like the first few people, their bodies were becoming more and more tired.
Until they were exhausted, they sat down and began to rest.
After a while, a hissing sound was heard beside me.
One of the assassins with more sensitive ears patted the person next to him and whispered.
"Did you hear any voice calling?
"what sound?"
"It looks like a snake."
Before he finished speaking, he saw a large number of snakes starting to crawl out of the snake pit not far away, forming a dense crowd.
These death warriors were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they all stood there in a daze.
"Quick! Go and report to the master! Quick!"
But it was too late. Animals in estrus are very violent, not to mention these highly poisonous ones.
Soon these warriors were surrounded by poisonous snakes. Their desperate struggles were futile and eventually they all died in the snakes' mouths and became their food.
Song Qingwan smiled with satisfaction. She walked out of the space and saw the dead bodies all over the ground. She shook her clothes, then clapped her hands and hid again.
Concubine Rou was almost going crazy. In just two hours, she not only killed all the snakes in the snake pit, but also killed or injured nearly half of her assassins.
"Who did this!"
The men around him lowered their heads for fear that they would be affected.
Lan Cheng'en also came from not far away. With such a big thing happening, he naturally couldn't hide away and hope for peace.
When he got closer and saw the situation clearly, Lan Chengen staggered and almost fell down.
Imperial Concubine Rou sneered disdainfully: "Waste!"
After saying that, she took out a tree flute and began to play it. The sound of the flute was melodious and the snakes gradually stopped moving.
Then, as if they heard some kind of call, the snakes began to slowly crawl towards the snake pit. After a short while, all the poisonous snakes returned to the original snake pit.
Concubine Rou went forward to check and found that all these assassins were killed by snake bites and had no external injuries on their bodies.
"Master, what should we do now?"
"Did the search over there yield any results?"
"Master, we only found a few small boats moored by the river, nothing else."
"Useless! What use are you?"
Lan Chengen suddenly thought of someone. There was probably only one person in the world who could do something so stealthily.
"Master, I do have someone I suspect."
"Oh? Do you know who it is?"
"It's the Great Sage's wife, Song Qingwan. I think he is the only one who has this ability."
Concubine Rou did not deny Lan Chengen's guess. She had been in southern Xinjiang for decades, and it was indeed impossible for anyone to compete with her.
Concubine Rou narrowed her eyes and thought for a while, then spoke coldly.
"Song Qingwan? Wait for me?"
