Chapter 1333: Snow Snake

Hu Lichangtian patted his chest and said: “It was a close call.”

This snow snake was a highly poisonous creature. If they were bitten by it, they would die.

The poisonous creature that can survive in such a place must not be an ordinary poisonous creature.

Hu Lichangtian reached out to get the firewood again. Bai Zhi hurriedly grabbed him and took him back two steps. She said to the guards: “You go, be careful, there may be snakes.”

The two guards drew their swords, slowly walked towards the pile of firewood, and used their swords to poke the dry firewood. As Bai Zhi expected, another white snake with a thicker body jumped out.

With a flash of sword light, the white snake was cut into two pieces and fell to the ground.

Hu Lichangtian stepped forward and took a look, saying: “It turns out that the female snake is looking for a place to lay eggs, so she got in here.”

Bai Zhi looked at the two big fat snakes and smiled: “It seems that we can have more dishes tonight.”

The bonfire was lit, and mushroom and meat soup was cooking on the fire, and snake meat was roasted on the side. When the oil is roasted, sprinkle some salt on it. No more seasoning was needed. It was so fragrant that people could eat even the fingers that touched it.

With a warm bonfire, delicious food, and partners who worked together, even though they were in a harsh environment, they felt that the road ahead was not difficult.

The two guards and Hu Lichangtian took turns to keep watch, and Bai Zhi and Xiao Qing rested by the fire.

They never thought that one day they would sleep in such a snowy place, and they slept quite well.

At dawn, the raging snowstorm on the other side of the mountain seemed to stop, and a ray of sun passed through the thick clouds and scattered in this snowy world, reflecting beautiful colorful halos.

Bai Zhi closed her eyes and sighed: “It’s worse than a snowstorm. This sunlight is harmful.”

Xiao Qing softened her eyes: “Isn’t it better to have the sun? You can see the road more clearly.”

Hu Lichangtian took out a piece of black gauze from his bag, tore it into strips bit by bit, and distributed it to everyone.

“It’s a bit of a hindrance to cover your eyes with this, but it’s better than becoming blind.”

Xiao Qing was puzzled: “Why do you want to do this?”

Bai Zhi had already covered her eyes with black gauze. Although it was not as good as modern sunglasses, it was better than looking at the snow directly in the sun. If you get snow blindness, how can she look for ice cicadas and snow lotus? It would be more likely looking for death.

“Cover it up. Looking at the snow under the sun for a long time will damage your eyes to varying degrees. We will stay here for a long time. If we don’t, we will all become blind.”

Xiao Qing rubbed her eyes: “No wonder I felt uncomfortable in my eyes just now.”

She covered her eyes with a black veil, and the snow scene in front of her darkened immediately, and the sky became gray. The vision was naturally not as good as before, but the eyes were indeed much more comfortable.

On the road again, this time their destination was the Forgotten Valley.

And the last place where Hu Lichangtian hid the pot was only ten miles away from that place.

He hid a pot and a pile of firewood there several years ago, but he never entered Forgotten Valley again. He thought that he would never go to that place again in his life.

“It takes at least a day and a half to get from here to Forgotten Valley. During this day and a half, we can’t rest or eat, so now is our last meal in the next day and a half or even 2 days.”

He lit the fire and cooked another pot of mushroom and meat soup, only this, nothing else.

After drinking the soup, they boiled another pot of hot water and filled everyone’s thermal water bags.

They wrapped the water bags in their clothes, which warmed their bodies while also allowing the water bags to maintain temperature to prevent them from freezing into ice and becoming undrinkable.
