Chapter 4 Chapter Four: Hou Yi Slays the Dragon

The giant snake landed on the ground with its tail end, and the hundred-foot-long snake stood upright in the air, with a terrifying power, as if it was about to turn into a dragon and go away. The little princess casually took a carved feather arrow and put it on the bowstring, and then stretched Houyi's bow a little with all her strength.The dark Houyi bow began to emit a faint golden light, and the golden light rushed towards the carved feather arrows on the bowstring like a mist.Where iron turns into gold essence, an ordinary carved feather arrow turns golden yellow, and finally turns into a golden light and leaves the string.

The wind and thunder burst, the sky and the earth turned pale, and the golden light seemed to tear through the void, reaching the giant snake in the blink of an eye.The giant snake was terrified. It seemed to have discovered the huge energy contained in the golden light arrow. It quickly fell to the ground. The huge snake body barely avoided the golden light that made the world look pale. Can't help trembling. The golden light arrow passed by the giant snake, making everyone extremely disappointed. However, in the blink of an eye, the wind and thunder rang again, and the golden light arrow that had disappeared roared back from a distance. The dazzling golden light eclipsed the sun in the sky. Stabbed into the body of the giant snake.

"puff" A wave of blood erupted from the giant snake's wound, and the crater filled the sky with blood. The huge snake body rolled continuously in the crater, and countless huge stones were shot everywhere by the snake's body. The little princess and everyone panicked. dodge. Ten minutes later, the giant snake stopped writhing, and stood upright again. Its ferocious snake head was more than ten feet away from the ground. It stared fiercely at the little princess, but when the giant snake saw Hou Yi's bow, it instinctively showed signs of fear. color. The snake body of the giant snake was cut open by the light arrow just now, and a huge blood hole was cut through.

A trainee magician said: "Your Highness, let's fire the magic bow again. If you hit the wound just now, you will be able to kill the demon snake in one fell swoop." "No, I don't have the strength to draw the magic bow anymore, come on!" Each of the dozen or so guards stepped forward to try again, but none of them could draw the magic bow. Chen Nan hid behind the rock and saw everything just now clearly. No one present knew Houyi's bow better than him, and it would be difficult to pull the divine bow even if he didn't have superb skills.If the little princess had enough skill, she would have stretched Houyi's bow a little bit just now, not to mention a giant snake, even a giant dragon would have been killed.According to ancient legends, Hou Yi's bow once shot down the gods in the sky, and it is one of the most powerful fairy treasures in the Immortal Fantasy Continent.

The giant snake seemed to see that everyone could no longer use the "dark tool" that frightened it. Its eyes were fierce, and after looking back at the flaming fairy lotus inside the volcano, it rushed straight towards the people not far away. . Chen Nan had already sensed that something was wrong, and ran down the mountain immediately. Only then did the little princess really show panic, "I overestimated my own strength!" The guards shouted loudly: "Her Royal Highness, run away." The little princess put the Houyi bow on her back, took a deep look at the people in front of her, turned around and ran down the mountain.

At this time, the giant snake swooped down, and a gust of wind blew up, and the huge snake's head came to everyone's eyes in a blink of an eye.The blood-red snake letter and the white fangs barely touched the bodies of everyone, and the three trainee magicians quickly set up a light blue light curtain.The giant snake's head hit the magic shield fiercely, and the light blue light curtain burst instantly. Three apprentice magicians vomited blood, and the guards were thrown far away by this huge momentum and rolled down the mountain. The giant snake moved as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, it caught up with the people who were falling down. Two people were run over by the giant snake's huge body, and before they could even utter a scream, they turned into The meat paste, the guards were heartbroken to see it.The giant snake did not continue to attack the other guards, its eyes glowed fiercely, and it chased the little princess in front of it.

At this moment, all the souls of Chen Nan are dead, the little devil follows behind him, and the giant snake is chasing her relentlessly. The little princess screamed again and again, "Ah..." Chen Nan rushed and shouted: "Little devil, what the hell are you calling, don't follow me like a follower." "Scum, stinky thief, you dare to talk to me like that. Sooner or later, I will arrest you and make you a eunuch in the palace. Ah... the stinky snake is here..." At this time, the little princess no longer had the composure she had before, and she was panicked at this moment. Incomparable.

After hearing the little princess' scream, the guards resisted the severe pain, got up from the ground, drew out their long swords and stabbed at the giant snake.But ordinary iron swords can't do anything to the giant snake at all. The giant snake twisted its body left and right, and its huge body slammed into the body of these guards fiercely. These people were knocked away like scarecrows. The giant snake had already chased after the little princess, opened its huge blood-red mouth and spewed out a large piece of flame, and the surging flames rolled towards the little princess. The little princess looked extremely panicked, and screamed piercingly: "Ah..."

Seeing that the flames had reached the back of the little princess, Hou Yi's bow suddenly emitted a faint golden light, blocking the flames, and the giant snake stopped suddenly in fright. At the same time, a long howl came from a distance, and the sound was like rumbling thunder, stirring in the air for a long time. "Yu'er, don't panic, here comes the teacher." The voice of the visitor was so loud that the rubble in the crater kept rolling down the mountain. Chen Nan's ears buzzed from the shock, and he almost fell to the ground. After a while, a middle-aged man in loose clothes appeared a hundred feet away.

"Oh... old man, why did you come here? If you come one step late, I will be eaten by this stinky snake." The little princess cried out. Chen Nan's blood surged from the shock, and he was too nervous just now, so he sat down on the ground. "Sound skills are so powerful, is it because of the sound killing skills Canglong Xiao? The little devil called him an old man, could it be an old guy who has rejuvenated his youth." He stared closely at the middle-aged man, and in the blink of an eye, someone came again Nearly fifty feet. "Shrinking the ground into an inch, the skill is close to the Tao! This old guy is really amazing, it seems that his kung fu has at least reached the level of a master." Chen Nan was secretly startled.

In an instant, the middle-aged man had arrived in front of the little princess, and the giant snake was "snake-eyed" not far away, looking at the unexpected guest. The middle-aged man didn't seem to care about the giant snake at all, he patted the little princess on the head dotingly, and said with a smile: "Haha, has the little girl suffered enough?" "I hate it, don't hit me on the head." The little devil princess pushed the middle-aged man's hand aside, pouted and said, "Hmph, old man, did you come here a long time ago, deliberately hiding in the dark to watch my jokes? " "If I had come earlier, would I have been able to watch you being chased and bitten by that little snake?" "Having fainted!" Chen Nan was really convinced by the pair of master and apprentice, they even called the huge monster a "small". "Hmph, who knows if what you said is true or not." At this time, the guards who survived the disaster came stumbling around the giant snake. The middle-aged man said in a deep voice: "You stay away from this volcano, as far as you can go back." The little princess didn't say much anymore, and led the group of seriously injured guards to run down the mountain.Of course, Chen Nan had already fled away, he didn't want to face that terrifying little devil. "Hey, scum, stinky thief, stop for me, or I'll skin you if I catch you." The little princess yelled viciously. Chen Nan suffered a lot during the past few days when he was captured, and now he cursed back fiercely: "You stinky princess, daydream, I will let you pay back the debt sooner or later, I XXXXX..." Those guards who survived the accident really wanted to rush over to catch him immediately, but they were seriously injured and powerless, so they could only yell and curse loudly from a distance.The little princess had never been insulted like this before, she clenched her silver teeth and trembled uncontrollably, if she hadn't exhausted all her strength, she would have chased after Chen Nan and beheaded him ten thousand times. After three or five ups and downs, Chen Nan had already arrived at the foot of the mountain. He ignored the angry scolding behind him, and plunged into the depths of the woods not far away.He didn't leave just now, he wanted to watch the fight between the middle-aged man who just arrived and the giant snake, he hid in a corner of the dense forest. The Houyi bow that frightened the giant snake has been taken away by the little princess, but it has not attacked the little princess' master for a long time.The giant snake has long been psychic, and it has already sensed the huge power contained in the weak body in front of it, and it twisted the huge snake body restlessly. Facing the giant snake alone at this moment, the aura of the little princess master changed in an instant. At this moment, he seemed to be a giant standing proudly between the heavens and the earth, with no fear on his face and full of strong self-confidence. The giant snake is the king of all beasts in the vicinity, no animal dared to take a step within a few miles, but in just half a day, its authority was repeatedly challenged.At this moment, being oppressed by the powerful aura of the middle-aged man, it was completely enraged, and fiery waves of fire erupted, rushing towards the middle-aged man overwhelmingly. The middle-aged man's figure was like lightning, leaving an afterimage on the spot, and moved five feet away in an instant, then jumped up high, and slapped the giant snake's wound earlier, and the wave of blood flowed from there again. The wound spurts out. The giant snake couldn't bear the huge pain, and the upright snake body fell to the ground, with blood-red eyes glowing with a chilling fierceness.A gust of wind blew up on the ground, and the huge snake tail slashed at the middle-aged man. If this tail swipe was placed on the battlefield, it would be worthy of the name and sweep away thousands of troops. The giant snake's "sweeping thousands of troops" left a huge ditch mark on the mountain. When the smoke and dust cleared, the middle-aged man stood on the top of the volcano, and the giant snake stood upright again. The huge snake's head was just at the same level as the crater, and its ferocious mouth swallowed the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man did not dodge or dodge, and went forward without hesitation. He swung his two fists forward, and a large white light appeared in front of his fists. The white light seemed to hit the bloody mouth of the giant snake like something tangible. "boom" There was a loud bang. The giant snake tumbled from the air and fell to the ground, and the rocks it hit shot out in all directions.The middle-aged man was also knocked from one side of the crater to the other by the huge counter-shock force, and fell to the ground in embarrassment. Chen Nan secretly admired in his heart: this middle-aged man was able to fight a hundred-foot-long giant snake with his own strength, and his cultivation was really extraordinary. The little princess and others hiding in the jungle were overjoyed to see that the middle-aged man was able to fight the giant snake. The middle-aged man and the giant snake fought together again. The middle-aged man relied on his lightning-fast speed and superb skills to focus on the weak spots of the giant snake's eyes, while the giant snake used its physical advantage to sweep and slam the middle-aged man. One person and one snake were jumping and tossing on the volcano, and huge stones were constantly rolling down from the mountain. One person and one snake were getting farther and farther away from the crater, and they were gradually coming down the mountain. Chen Nan felt bad and ran away quickly.Everyone in the little princess also felt that something was wrong, so they quickly retreated for a mile. As soon as the crowd withdrew, their original hiding place became a new battlefield.The middle-aged man and the giant snake fought from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain. Every time he swung a punch, he would emit a large area of ​​blazing white light, and the rocks and trees would be shattered when touched. The giant snake's destructive power is greater than that of a middle-aged man. Every time it spits out flames, a large area of ​​forest will be burned and turned into scorched earth, and rows of trees will fall down every time it "sweeps a thousand troops". In less than tea time, the entire forest was razed to the ground. Chen Nan looked terrified, it's not that he has never seen a peerless master, his father is a peerless master among the peerless masters, but he has never seen such a fierce fight several times. The little princess secretly rejoiced that if the giant snake had shown such power to them earlier, she would have gone to heaven to report it by now.Of course, this is her wishful thinking, and Chen Nan believes that she will go to hell to find the devil to confess her relatives. At this time, the middle-aged man seemed to have the upper hand, and lightning-like figures frequently appeared near the wounds of the giant snake earlier, and his fists were bombarded at the same place with blazing white lights. The body kept rolling. The little princess cheered immediately, "Master, come on, kill that stinky snake quickly, and avenge my guard." "Oh, old man, you are so stupid, why did you let the stinky snake gain the upper hand again? Are you proud when you hear me praise you?" "Old man, you are so bad, oh, you are so stupid, how can you let the smelly snake burn your hair." ... The middle-aged man stretched out his palm and cut off the strand of long hair that was burned by the flames, and quickly stepped back more than ten feet. "Master, you are such a coward, how can you escape?" Chen Nan laughed secretly, it is a great misfortune in life for a middle-aged man to have such a devil apprentice. The middle-aged man took a breath, and said in a voice: "Little girl, don't talk nonsense, and if you make trouble again, you will be fined to face the wall for a hundred days." "Aren't they encouraging you?" Middle-aged man: "..." After being "stimulated", the middle-aged man showed great power and beat the giant snake into a slump. Just when everyone thought that the middle-aged man had a chance to win, the giant snake's tail suddenly wrapped around the middle-aged man's waist like lightning. It rolled him up into the sky all at once, and even the thinnest tail of the giant snake wrapped around the middle-aged man's chest and abdomen in just one turn. The little princess screamed, rushed past the guards and ran forward. The middle-aged man struggled hard, a faint white light glowed all over his body, the light became stronger and stronger, and the snake tail wrapped around his body gradually loosened, and he was about to break free from the giant snake's entanglement, but at this moment, the ferocious snake head suddenly It opened its huge blood-red mouth and bit at him.He hastily swung his fists and struck out, a blazing white light blocked the ferocious snake head, but the loose tail wrapped him around tightly again. The little princess quickly ran to a place less than ten feet away from the giant snake, her voice choked up: "Master... woo..." "Yu'er, don't cry, master is fine, this little snake can kill me." "Master took the Houyi bow." As she spoke, the little princess threw the Houyi bow and a carved feather arrow into the air. "Woo... Master, I'm sorry for you. I wanted to see your true strength, so I didn't give you the Houyi bow earlier, woo..." The little princess cried again. "Don't be afraid, Yu'er. This little snake really can't do anything to Master. Now that I have the Houyi bow in my hand, it will die." The middle-aged man said, punching the giant snake's head twice, and the blazing white glow Immediately knocking back the snake head by three feet, he stretched out his hands, and with a soft white light, he attracted Hou Yi's bow and carved feather arrows into his hands. "Yu'er retreat quickly, be careful not to hurt you." The little princess felt relieved when the middle-aged man received the Houyi bow, turned around and ran away. The giant snake did show fear after seeing Hou Yi's bow, and the huge snake head moved back a distance of seven or eight feet. The middle-aged man's body was full of light, after setting up the carved feather arrow, he tried his best to pull the bowstring, and he shouted: "Open!" But what surprised him was that the bowstring didn't move at all. "Yu'er, has anyone ever used a Houyi bow?" the middle-aged man shouted. "That's right, old man. I shot the bloody hole in the stinky snake. Now you are happy, I finally pulled the magic bow." "What? You little confused, the Houyi Bow can only be used once a year, it really killed you." "Ah... Master... Woo..." The giant snake seemed to have seen that the middle-aged man was unable to use the divine bow, and it bit the middle-aged man viciously. The middle-aged man swung the Houyi bow to meet it, and the dark back of the bow collided with the thick white teeth of the giant snake. Four or five fangs with a length of half a meter were broken and flew out with a cloud of blood mist.The giant snake suffered from pain, and threw its tail forcefully, throwing the middle-aged man into the air. The middle-aged man tumbled from the air and fell to the ground in embarrassment. After he took a long breath, he rushed towards the giant snake with the bow in his hand. Chen Nan was dumbfounded. The little princess' master actually used Houyi's bow as a stick, and he felt pain in his heart. "This perverted man is... really reckless!" The little princess smiled happily, "Haha, the old man is really interesting!" The middle-aged man jumped up high, a black light flashed, the giant snake's scales, which were as hard as fine steel, were scattered in all directions by Hou Yi's bow, and blood rained in the sky.The giant snake was furious, its entire body twisted wildly, its huge tail whipped horizontally and vertically, and the ground shook. However, the little princess' master was as strong as lightning, and escaped round after round of fatal attacks.Then he struck out frequently with Hou Yi's bow in his hand, beating the giant snake until it was dripping with blood. Suddenly the giant snake stopped, and the body of the snake standing upright in the air began to emit a faint golden light. Amazing changes took place on the giant snake. The colorful scales on the snake turned into golden scales, four protrusions appeared on the abdomen, and the head grew out. With a pair of golden antlers, a dragon roar came from the mouth of the giant snake, and the sound shook the nine heavens.A powerful dragon aura emanated from the giant snake, and all the animals in a radius of a hundred miles prostrated themselves on the ground. Everyone was stunned. "Dragon, I saw the legendary dragon!" Chen Nan shouted excitedly. The little princess exclaimed, "My God! We are fighting a dragon!" While everyone was extremely excited, the little princess' master showed a look of sadness.Only he understands that the giant snake did not succeed in transforming into a dragon, the dragon claws on its belly did not stretch out, and the failure to transform into a dragon has only one end—death. He said softly: "Brother Snake, I'm sorry, I thought you were a snake demon with no success in cultivation. I never thought that you would be so arrogant. At the critical point, I think we are already dead without a place to die.” At this time, the golden scales on the giant snake began to fall off, and the place where there were no scales was bloody. The giant snake let out a tragic roar, and spit out a golden inner alchemy from its mouth. The inner alchemy suddenly burst into pieces in the air, turning into little gold The rain disappeared into the air, and the giant snake that failed to transform into a dragon turned into a golden light and rushed towards the volcano, sinking into the crater in the blink of an eye. The little princess' master felt lost. If he killed a monster snake, he would never feel extremely lost, but he felt extremely heavy in his heart when he killed a holy snake that was expected to turn into a dragon. "Right or wrong? Maybe there is no right or wrong in this world." He sighed. The middle-aged man came to the crater with a heavy heart. He flew to the fire lotus, picked only a petal of the lotus, and then pulled the whole plant and threw it into the volcano. "Brother Snake, this may be God's will. If the fire celestial lotus matures half an hour earlier, you may have already transformed into a dragon. That celestial lotus will definitely keep your spiritual consciousness immortal. May you cultivate into a real dragon in your next life." At this time, the little princess and the others had already run up, "Master, what happened just now, why did that stinky snake turn into a dragon?" The middle-aged man said: "You read it wrong, how could it turn into a dragon?" "It's a dragon. They clearly saw a dragon. Do you think it was a dragon?" the little princess said to the guards. "It's a dragon." "It's a dragon." "It must be a dragon, I can see it clearly." ... The guards affirmed. The middle-aged man said lightly: "People will have hallucinations when they are overly nervous. You were too nervous just now." The little princess said: "Hmph, old man, why are you acting so weird today? You must be hiding something from me." The middle-aged man smiled and said: "You little girl, you always like to think wildly. Here, this is the Fiery Lotus you want to pick." "Ah, why is there only one petal?" "You, you are really greedy. It is good enough to get one petal of this fairy grass. The rest of the lotus petals have fallen into the volcano after they are ripe." "Oh, what a pity." The little princess sighed. "Hey, master, what about the snake, did you kill it?" "It died under Hou Yi's bow." "Oh, old man, you are really weird today. You clearly slaughtered a dragon, no, it was a giant snake. How can you be so listless?" The little princess blinked her big eyes, looking at the middle-aged man with deep meaning. The middle-aged man pinched her nose, changed the subject and said with a smile: "You little girl actually sneaked out of the palace, you didn't know that you were about to kill your father." "I hate it." The little princess slapped off the middle-aged man's hand and said, "It's not because of my father that I came out to look for the Fiery Lotus. On his sixtieth birthday, if I give him the fairy lotus, he will be very happy." .” "You little girl is so crazy, don't you know that it will be dangerous for you to do so? How can you ignore..." "Okay, okay, I see, why are you even more nagging than my grandma. Master, I heard that you had a crush on my grandma when you were young, is it true?" The little princess smirked. "You...don't change the subject." The little princess laughed and said: "Yes, I obey, I will return to the palace immediately." The middle-aged man looked helpless, and said: "You are too naughty, I am really worried that you will go back safely." The little princess wondered: "Old man, won't you go back with me?" The middle-aged man said: "I came here to look for you, and I was supposed to "take" you back, but on the way, I heard that a unicorn beast appeared in the Luofeng Mountains. This is an extraordinary thing. I'm going to take a look, but I'm not worried about you!" "Isn't that the mythical beast in the legend? There really is a unicorn in this world?" The little princess's eyes lit up, her face excited, and she said, "I want to go too." "No, you have been away from the palace for more than half a month, and your mother is so frightened for you, she has already fallen ill because of this, you should go back quickly." "Ah, my queen mother is ill? Well then, I'll go back right away." The little princess looked disappointed. The middle-aged man returned the Houyi bow to the little princess, and said, "Yu'er, why did you steal the Houyi bow? You must know that this is the national treasure of the Chu Kingdom, and its main function is to deter other countries from being peerless." Master." "What's the matter, didn't I just borrow it, and it's not like I won't return it." The little princess said nonchalantly. "You really don't know the severity. The Divine Bow was once sealed and can only be used once in a year. How can it be used casually? Fortunately, there are no evil enemies in the state of Chu now, and it is basically useless. .” "I know——" the little princess drew a long tail.
