Chapter 19: The Snake Demon Appears
Night falls.
A black wind fell on Sanhe Village and turned into a fair-faced young man in gorgeous clothes. He held a bone fan in his hand and walked into a house with a hint of lust in his eyes.
During this period of time, he had become addicted to the woman's beauty. This woman's beauty was the best in the area within dozens of miles, and he was reluctant to leave.
As soon as he entered the house, a hint of surprise appeared in the snake demon's eyes.
A scent of cosmetics wafted towards me. It was the hibiscus and peony dew he had given me last time.
There was a light mist in the air, and an inexplicable fragrance. Could it be that she had just taken a bath?
Thinking of this, the snake demon couldn't help but smile.
This woman finally got it.
He walked into the inner room and saw a woman combing her hair in front of a bronze mirror. She was wearing a beautiful red silk dress and her long hair was slightly wet, draped over her snow-white skin.
The snake demon swallowed and couldn't help but walked forward and hugged her from behind.
"My little beauty, are you finally getting the point today?"
The woman tried to hold back the stench from his mouth, smiled, and said, "I've figured it out. Instead of following a cowardly husband, I'd rather follow you. At least I won't have to worry about food and drink. Even the young ladies from those wealthy families may not be as good as me."
The snake demon laughed loudly, looking very proud.
He leaned over and wanted to kiss her, but she gave him a look of shame and resentment.
"My dear, why are you so anxious? The night is long. Can't you let me finish what I want to say?"
After hearing this, the snake demon was shocked and asked happily: "What did you call me just now?"
The woman stood up, with a plump figure and charming expression, and said, "Of course it is my husband. This red dress is what I wore when I got married."
After saying that, she raised the two glasses of wine on the table and handed one to the snake demon.
"My husband, tonight is my second wedding. Drink this cup of wedding wine, and you will be my husband from now on."
After saying that, she guided the snake demon to cross her arms and drank first.
The snake demon raised the wine glass and put it to his lips, but suddenly stopped.
"Why don't you drink?"
The snake demon stared at her with its narrow eyes and asked, "Why is your heart beating so fast, my lady?"
The woman pretended to be calm and said in a shameful and angry tone: "I am just a little scared. You were too rough the last few times and made me unable to go out for several days..."
The snake demon laughed when he heard this. He drank the wine in one gulp and comforted her softly, "I will be gentle tonight..."
As he said this, he picked up the woman and prepared to walk towards the bed.
A trace of hatred flashed in the woman's eyes. She quietly tore up the talisman in her sleeve. The moment she was thrown onto the bed, she suddenly took out the scissors that had been placed under the pillow and stabbed the snake demon!
The scissors stopped in front of the snake demon's eyes.
The snake demon held her wrist with one hand and said calmly, "I thought you had come to your senses tonight, but it turns out you were just trying to please me so I could kill you later."
After a pause, he sneered , "You are just an ignorant village woman after all. Do you think you can kill me with a pair of scissors? How ridiculous—"
Before he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed. He covered his chest with his hands, and a trace of pain appeared in his eyes.
"There's realgar in the wine!"
At this moment, he finally understood and was shocked. He never thought that a country woman could have such scheming and means!
Realgar wine is the natural enemy of snakes. Even if he has practiced for more than two hundred years, after drinking a glass of it, his magic power will be greatly reduced and he will be very weak.
But fortunately, even so, he could easily kill this ordinary person.
But just as the snake demon was about to kill the woman, the door was kicked open, and a handsome Taoist priest in a green Taoist robe, with a short sword hanging from his waist and a talisman in his hand stood outside the door.
"Snake demon, do you still remember me?"
There was a hint of murderous intent in Li Daoxuan's eyes, but he did not rush to attack. Instead, he used the art of shrinking the earth and stepped forward to block the woman.
hiss!
The snake demon let out bursts of hissing sounds. He could no longer maintain his human form and revealed his true form under the effect of the realgar wine.
A huge snake about ten feet long and two feet wide was coiled on the ground. Its pattern was blue-black and it was a rattlesnake, and its tail was constantly making rattling sounds.
Li Daoxuan's eyes focused. He didn't pay much attention when he was escaping before, but now he was surprised to find that there were majestic horn-like objects on the head of this big snake, a bit like the dragon horns in mythology !
How is this possible? A snake needs to practice for a thousand years before it can transform into a dragon. How can this snake not have practiced for a thousand years?
At this moment, the snake demon looked at Li Daoxuan with hatred in its eyes.
However, the next moment, a dazzling golden light appeared, almost blinding its snake eyes.
With a scream, the snake demon quickly fled behind him, preparing to leave here first, and wait until his magic power is restored to settle the score with this stinky Taoist priest!
He also didn't expect that after breaking into that person's territory , the stinky Taoist priest was still alive!
Li Daoxuan smiled coldly, Bite me? I have twenty amulets stacked on my body now!
Li Daoxuan chased after him quickly. Originally, the snake demon's speed was much faster than his, but after drinking realgar wine, it could no longer shake him off.
Seeing this scene, Li Daoxuan became more confident.
In the Legend of the White Snake, even the White Lady who had practiced for thousands of years would reveal her true form after drinking realgar wine, let alone this little snake demon.
In order to prevent him from smelling the odor of realgar wine, Li Daoxuan specially mixed realgar wine with other wines . Facts have proved that this method is indeed effective.
"Snake demon, where are you escaping!"
With a clang of sword sound, Li Daoxuan pulled out the Yuchang sword from his waist and threw it like a flying knife at the huge body of the snake demon.
hiss!
The snake demon screamed again. Under the sharp edge of the Yuchang sword, his scales seemed like paper and were easily pierced.
The Yuchang sword was nailed into the snake's body, blood kept flowing, and the evil spirit on the sword penetrated into the snake monster's body, making it even weaker.
The snake demon was extremely horrified. It didn't expect that only a few days had passed and this young Taoist not only improved his Taoism but also obtained such a terrifying magic weapon. It couldn't help but become even more fearful.
Under the moonlight, a very strange scene appeared in Sanhe Village.
I saw a giant snake about ten feet long fleeing in a panic, leaving a bloody trail behind. Behind it followed a young Taoist priest, holding a thunder seal in his hand and chanting a spell.
"Five thunders, five thunders, quickly meet Huang Ning, the mist changes, the roar is as fast as lightning, it comes as soon as it hears the call, quickly send out the Yang sound, hurry up as the law orders!"
Boom!
A green lightning bolt as thick as an arm fell down, as if the sky was angry, and struck towards the snake demon.
But unfortunately, because the Five Thunder Talisman was not affixed to the snake demon, the lightning struck deviatedly due to its fast movement.
boom!
A large tree was struck down by lightning and even began to burn.
After missing the first attack, Li Daoxuan took out another Five Thunder Talisman and prepared to try again.
But at this moment, the moonlight dimmed, dark clouds appeared in the sky, and with a thunderclap, heavy rain fell in an instant.
Li Daoxuan opened his mouth wide. Wasn't it sunny just now? Why did the weather change so suddenly?
Suddenly, the speed of the snake demon began to increase. It was like a fish in water on the slippery road. It jumped more than ten feet and gradually showed a tendency to leave Li Daoxuan behind.
