My enemies became my companions

Chapter 82 Promise yourself?

[Yu married the daughter of Tushan, named Nuwa, who gave birth to Qi. When Nuwa of Tushan died, her intestines turned into a snake.]

The green-headed python was roaming in the underground palace. The knife wound on its huge head had dried up. Even though Chen Yi had the red gold relic, that devastating blow still failed to hurt its roots.

Its appearance made Zhou Yitang's brows slightly tighten.

Chen Yi understood that Zhou Yitong was worried that her identity as an accomplice would help Tushan find her whereabouts.

Zhou Yitang seemed to be hesitating.

This strange beast transformed from Tushan's intestines seemed to be getting closer and closer to the tomb.

"Master Zhou is wondering, given the severe damage, can he resolve it in a cup of tea?"

Chen Yi asked slowly.

If the delay is too long, Tushan will know where Zhou Yitong is.

After all, in this underground palace, Yinjianshan Jianjia is the only one who can compete with him.

Zhou Yitang glanced at Chen Yi unexpectedly and nodded slightly.

"You're right."

"Then I have an idea."

As Chen Yi spoke, he took out the red gold relic from his arms and said:
"I and Yin Xiangu will attract the python, and you attack its weak spot."

When Yin Weiying heard this, she frowned slightly. Chen Yi glanced at her, but she did not comment.

Zhou Yitang lowered his eyes, as if thinking.

After a long while, she said:

"it is good."

Chen Yi nodded, turned to Yin Weiying and said:

"Do you have a golden amulet? If you do, take it out quickly. If you don't have one, bite your finger and spend a few."

Upon hearing this, the nun in white took out a talisman from her bosom, nodded and said:
"Have."

Even though Chen Yi's tone was not very good, Yin Weiying, whose Taoism heart had been firmed up, did not show any displeasure.

"Let's go then."

Chen Yi said calmly, leaving a message to Zhou Yitang before leaving.

"Master Zhou, wait for your opportunity."

Zhou Yitang didn't say much, just nodded.

Chen Yi stepped out of the tomb, walked through the corridor, took over Yin Weiying's golden body amulet, and faced the huge python.

The moment it saw Chen Yi, the python raised its head, its green scales trembled, and it hissed with its tongue sticking out.

Ancient people regarded snakes as gods.

The extremely huge Bashe was worshipped by the Xia people as a mountain god.

What's more, this big snake came from Tushan, the wife of Dayu and the mother of Xia Qi. In ancient times, Xia Qi killed his mother with his own hands and threw her body into the wilderness, which gave rise to this big snake.

During every sacrifice, dozens of men and women would be selected to feed the Basagodon into its mouth. The Chinese character for "god" in bronze inscriptions looks like a winding snake.

The huge snake pupils glared at Chen Yi. The Basah had never imagined that it, which was once worshipped as a god, would actually be injured by sacrificial food!
The huge head opened its fangs and pounced towards Chen Yi.

The underground palace seemed to be shaking.

Yin Weiying, a nun in white, clasped her hands together, muttered something, and then pointed at the air:
"Certainly!"

As the Immobilization Technique was used, the body of the python became visibly sluggish.

Chen Yi held the talisman in his hand, and when the snake head pounced towards him, he seized the moment to freeze the snake, and slammed the golden protective talisman onto the snake head.

A golden light flashed, and the huge snake head emitted burning blood.

In pain, the python's head tilted slightly. Chen Yi turned sideways and the blade cut through the snake's mouth and blurted out.

Then, he struck the wound on the python with a devastating blow.

The flesh that had just scabbed over suddenly exploded. The snake blood formed all around, and white smoke from burning and corrosive rose from the ground. Chen Yi had red-gold relics on his body, and waves of Buddha's light resisted the erosion of the snake blood.

The python, which was injured again, roared and its tongue danced wildly, almost like a madman.

It raised its head, ready to pounce again.

At this moment, its attention was completely focused on Chen Yi, and its weakest point was exposed without any protection.

A sword was drawn in the distance.

The majestic sword energy arrived in an instant.

The pupils of the python widened, as if it was angry, shocked, and unwilling.

Then, the huge snake head, as big as a hill, broke apart like a collapsing boulder and smashed heavily in front of Chen Yi. The powerful impact force caused the underground palace in front of him to shake slightly, with sand and rocks flying and dust rising.

Chen Yi raised his hand to block the smoke and dust.

Then, a graceful figure was seen standing behind the snake. Under a lotus crown, her black hair flowed like a waterfall, and snake blood splattered everywhere, but she was untainted by the mud.

The only flaw is that she has one arm.

Chen Yi took a few breaths and then looked at the python. He saw something slowly flowing out from the crack where its head was broken.

It was a piece of tortoise shell, soaked in snake blood, but not stained by the blood.

Looking at the tortoise shell, Chen Yi didn't take it seriously. Yin Weiying seemed to have a premonition and picked it up first.

Under the golden amulet, Yin Weiying picked it up without any injuries. She took a closer look, her eyes sparkling. "What is that?"

Chen Yi asked.

"Maybe it's the goddess' inheritance."

Before Yin Weiying could say anything, Zhou Yitang said:
"The ancient Xia people regarded the snake as a god, and those who served the god were called goddesses."

Chen Yi nodded slightly. It turned out to be the inheritance of the goddess. No wonder Yin Weiying was so attracted to this tortoise shell.

He turned his head and looked at Zhou Yitang again, then thought of something and asked:
"I wonder if Master Zhou could do me a favor?"

"what?"

"For the safety of the two people."

The reason why Chen Yi did not ask Yin Weiying to tell fortunes was mainly because he did not trust this woman who had tried to kill him several times.

What's more, in this underground palace, Yin Weiying may not have this ability.

"Name." Jian Jia was very direct.

"Yin Tingxue, courtesy name Yintai, Min Ning, courtesy name Yuechi."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yi saw Zhou Yitang close his eyes, make a gesture with his only remaining hand, and step into the Bagua Step with both feet, and stop after a while.

"Don't worry, everything is fine."

Zhou Yitang opened his eyes and said.

Hearing this, Chen Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After he felt relieved, looking at her familiar face, Chen Yi couldn't help but teased her:
"This time, I saved Master Zhou. I wonder how I can repay him for saving my life?"

Zhou Yitang raised his eyebrows and glanced at him coldly.
"what would you like?"

"Why don't you repay me with your life?"

Chen Yi joked subconsciously.

I always like this, and in my previous life I always liked to tease this taciturn master like this.

Even if I get beaten up, it doesn't matter.

"Why?"

Somewhat to Chen Yi's surprise, Zhou Yitang asked back.

"Uh…"

Chen Yi didn't expect her to ask back, so he could only say awkwardly:

"Love at first sight, do you believe it?"

Zhou Yitang seemed stunned, silent for a while, and then sneered.

"boring."

She walked past Chen Yi and said in a distinguished voice:
"Infatuation is so boring."

Chen Yi turned around and watched her back disappear into the corridor of the underground palace.

"I couldn't help but tease her."

Chen Yi shook his head and laughed, somewhat regretting what he said.
"I took it for granted."

I think this time, I left her with a bad impression again.

.........

After walking along the corridor for a while, when Chen Yi's presence could no longer be detected,
Zhou Yitang glanced sideways and said:

"Come out, Princess Xiang."

As the words fell, a little head with a bun popped out from the shadow of the corridor, looked left and right, half poking out and half not poking out, ready to retreat at any moment.

After seeing that Chen Yi was gone, Yin Tingxue came out.

No one would have thought that Yin Tingxue, whom Chen Yi had been looking for, was actually hiding in the corner of the tomb.

She had an invisibility talisman drawn by Zhou Yitang on her body, and watched the entire show as the two of them competed with each other in acting.

“Did I act well?”

Jian Jia asked aloud.

"It's OK, he shouldn't be able to see it."

Yin Tingxue nodded, looked Zhou Yitang up and down, noticed that her breathing was disordered, and asked tentatively:

"You...got hurt on purpose, and you deliberately owed him a life-saving favor?"

How could Jian Jia, who was ranked ninth on the martial arts list and practiced both Taoism and martial arts, be defeated so easily by Tushan clan? Yin Tingxue just couldn't believe it.

Zhou Yitang did not answer.

A true hunter often disguises himself as his prey.

Yin Tingxue felt a little sympathetic towards the one-armed woman and could not help but advise:
"Why do you have to do this? If you kill this person, it might be a good thing for the mountain. But if you fail, it will be very time-consuming and you might even lose your life. It's not worth it..."

Before he could finish his words, the one-armed woman answered:

"For him, nothing is unworthy."
