Weird Cultivation, I have a five-organ temple

Chapter 346: Changing the Five Elements, Mobilizing Water and Fire

It has to be picked even if it is difficult.

According to Shang Lu's understanding, the Basque snake is not only huge in size, but also very cunning in mind.

Since it was hiding here, using the Blood Sky Mine to make a nest and waiting for food to come to its door, it was very likely that it had destroyed all the other Blood Sky Mines in Panlong Valley.

This could also explain why Shang Lu and his team had searched most of Panlong Valley but had not found any trace of the Blood Sky Mine.

Fortunately, although the Bashe is huge in size and its strength is most likely above the small success level of Zhou Tian, ​​Shang Lu is not without a chance.

Although the human clothes swallowed by the python had no fighting power, Shang Lu secretly hid a few paper people in the inflatable leather bag, so he could use them to torment the python's stomach at any time.

At the same time, they are in the dark and can launch targeted sneak attacks.

Not to mention that Sanniang is here.

Back then, Sanniang even cut off the meat of a strange snake that was about to transform into a dragon to feed it to Shanglu, so she must have a way to deal with the Bashe.

So, even if you can't do it, there is no problem in escaping.

Shang Lu made a decision quickly.

From this point of view, he already has the rudiments of a soldier wizard.

A general must assess the situation and act decisively.

But you can't act rashly.

At this time, the python swallowed the human clothes and did not find anything wrong, so it continued to lie dormant contentedly.

The python didn't know that the small black dot hovering in the sky had already fed back its situation to Shanglu, who was more than a thousand steps away.

This python was dozens of meters long and lay across the mountains and forests.

Because its scales were petrified, they were also wrapped with a lot of mud, which was covered with weeds, shrubs, etc., making the huge body of the python blend perfectly with the surrounding environment.

In addition, the python cunningly restrained its breath, so even if people walked next to it, they would not imagine that there was a big snake lying in this place.

They would only regard the protruding shape of the python from the ground as a common low hill in the mountains.

The huge head of the python shrank into the ground.

There was a big hole there, just big enough for its head.

The python lay back in the pit, opened its mouth wide and spit out its tongue.

Those pieces of blood sky ore were held in its tongue.

The tongue of the python is petrified like its snake skin scales, and weeds are growing next to it, which is extremely confusing and difficult to see the clues.

In order to further paralyze the people who came to mine, this python even put a grass tick on its tongue.

The so-called grass tick is a common parasite on snakes.

Although the basset snake is huge, it is still a snake and will also attract ticks.

However, after sucking its blood, the grass tick also became huge.

Like the grass tick on the tongue of the basset snake, it is as big as a cat or dog, and has an ugly and ferocious appearance.

When people who come to mine see this grass tick, they will immediately associate the evil spirit here with it, thinking it is a treasure-guarding beast, and thus further relax their vigilance.

When the wooden kite was searching around just now, it didn't find the grass tick because it was curled up.

Once this thing curls up into a ball, it looks like a stone and is hard to tell.

Only when people approach will it "actively" appear to help the python and lead people into the snake's mouth.

Just when the people arrived here, the tick appeared, pretending to be panic-stricken, and crawled into the mouth of the python.

People who come to mine, whether they ignore the ticks and go straight to the Blood Sky Mine, or plan to kill the treasure-guarding beasts first, will relax their vigilance and chase after them.

Then, when he was not on guard, he was swallowed by the python.

Although Shanglu decided to continue mining, he did not act rashly.

He first assigned different tasks to the three wooden kites.

One was hovering high in the sky, overlooking and monitoring the python's every move.

One calculates and searches for the location of the heart of the python based on its huge body.

As the saying goes, hit the snake at its seven-inch point. The seven-inch point here refers to the snake's heart, not that you have to hit it at the length of seven inches.

The last wooden kite followed the body of the python all the way down to find its excretory cavity.

The snake's seven-inch point and excretory cavity are its weak points.

When there was a strange snake in Yunhua Mountain, Shang Lu not only competed with it in height, but also sought advice from the old seniors in the government office on how to deal with the snake.

Someone told him that if he was entangled by a large snake such as a python, he should find a way to poke its excretory cavity.

Once stabbed, the snake will lose its strength and the muscles wrapped around the person will relax, giving the person a chance to escape.

When Shang Lu asked the old constable about this matter, a fast-shift yamen runner who happened to be passing by heard what he said.

The guy asked curiously, "Why can poking a python's excretion cavity make it weak?"

The old detective laughed and said, "What's so strange about this? You don't have the strength to poke your anus."

Unexpectedly, the constable of the express squad said, "How is that possible? I will just shake it harder."

Shang Lu and the old detective were stunned when they heard it.

Afterwards I sighed and said, these guys in the fast class are really good at playing tricks!

However, this incident also made Shang Lu remember the incident of beating the snake and poking its excrement cavity deeply.

The third wooden kite quickly found the tail of the python.

The snake's tail hangs on the edge of the cliff, with its excretory cavity facing the deep cliff below.

Shang Lu controlled the wooden kite and observed carefully while keeping a distance.

Soon two bulges were found on the tail of the python.

This is a stump.

Many snakes have vestigial feet. Some say that snakes once had four legs, but gave them up during evolution and became vestigial feet, just like the human coccyx.

But in this world, many people who raise and control animals believe that the remaining feet of snakes represent the existence of a kinship between snakes and dragons.

Even though this relationship is extremely distant and thin, there are still many people who want to raise snakes into dragons.

When horns grow on the snake's head and its remaining feet turn into claws, the snake is not far from transforming into a dragon.

At this moment, after discovering the remaining feet, Shanglu immediately determined the location of the excretory cavity - right between the two remaining feet.

But Shang Lu soon discovered that it was not easy to poke the excretory cavity of the python.

There is a movable petrified scale that covers the excretory cavity to protect it.

Damn, this snake also has an iron crotch? It really doesn't learn good things but learn bad things.

Shang Lu cursed in his heart.

But he did not give up. He immediately tore up a few paper figures with his hands, and together with the paper figures he had drawn before using the method of warding off evil, he sneaked towards the cliff.

I plan to look for an opportunity to see if I can get in through the gap between the snake scales and the excretory cavity.

At this time, the second wooden kite also calculated the approximate location of the python's heart.

So Shanglu released more paper figures and asked them to test the hardness of the stone scales of the Basashi.

At the same time, he also got off the paper horse, tried his best to restrain his breath, and moved towards the top of the mountain.

Seeing this, Zhu Quan, Du Feng, Tu Pi and others hurried to catch up, but were stopped by him.

"You stay here, prepare for battle, and wait for my orders."

The Basah is huge in size and has a strength above the minor success level of Zhou Tian. Even if Zhu Quan, Du Feng and Tu Bin followed it, they would not be able to help and would even become a burden.

It would be better to let them wait here. If we can injure the Basai snake severely through a sneak attack and cause its strength to drop drastically, then it won't be too late to call a few people up to help.

And if the sneak attack fails, they are far away and can retreat calmly without distracting Shang Lu from taking care of them.

Zhu Quan, Du Feng and Tu Pi were all very aware of their own weight. They bowed and accepted the order, then began to check their equipment and wait for orders.

As a result, the order came quickly - Shang Lu walked back not far away.

He was holding a newly drawn map in his hand. Although it was still very simple, it was barely understandable with the help of the surrounding terrain.

"Old Zhu, take a few people to this location."

Under the curious gazes of the crowd, Shang Lu waved to Zhu Quan, pointed to a place on the map, then raised his hand and pointed towards the mountain on the left.

"Do you see that forest? Yes, it is there. Take your men there, take this pile of talismans, find trees over a hundred years old, and paste them on them one by one."

Zhu Quan did not ask why he did this. He simply bowed and accepted the order. He took the talisman given by Shang Lu, lit two talismans, clamped his horse and held the gag in his mouth, and set off towards the forest that Shang Lu mentioned.

Shang Lu took out a paper boat made of talisman paper and waved to Du Feng to come over.

"Take two people down the mountain. There is a river on the way here. Do you remember? Find that river and put the boat in it. Remember, the bow of the boat must be aimed at the mountain where Zhu Quan is going."

"Yes, I remember!"

Du Feng nodded vigorously.

But he didn't leave in a hurry, but asked: "What if this paper boat is washed away by the current, or changes its direction?"

Shang Lu replied: "As long as you put it in a safe place, no matter how strong the current is, it will not be able to move it."

Hearing this, Du Feng felt relieved.

He also called two thieves and rode down the mountain on horseback.

Seeing that Zhu Quan and Du Feng both got jobs, Tu Pi and the remaining thieves hurriedly volunteered.

"My Lord, what about us? What shall we do?"

Shang Lu pointed at the crude map, on which several lines converged at one point.

"See this spot? This is where the earth veins intersect. It's in that direction."

Shang Lu raised his hand and also pointed to the left, but not to the woods on the top of the mountain where Zhu Quan and the others were going, but to the foot of the mountain.

At the same time, Shang Lu handed the crude map to Tu Bin, and took out the scales given by the pig-bodied, eight-legged, snake-tailed god and gave them to Tu Bin.

"Go over there and find the point of the ley line, and bury this scale there."

"I understand! I will definitely fulfill your mission!"

After taking the map and scales, Tubi issued a military order: "If you can't do it, I'll bring my head to you!"

Then he called the remaining thieves and rushed to the foot of the mountain on the left.

In fact, all these arrangements made by Shanglu were Sanniang's ideas.

Just now, Sanniang gave Shanglu a suggestion, saying that the Basah's body seemed to be petrified, which must be due to stealing the earth's energy.

They can weaken the Basnake by changing the surrounding Feng Shui, enhancing the wood energy and suppressing the earth energy, using the method of wood overcoming earth.

The place Zhu Quan went to was exactly the wood position here. Asking them to stick talismans on the century-old tree was to stimulate the wood energy of the wood position to the greatest extent.

What Du Feng arranged in the creek was a Feng Shui boat, in order to lead the water vapor to the wood position, so as to achieve the effect of water generating wood, further strengthen the wood energy and suppress the Bashe.

Tu Bin took the scales of the pig-bodied, eight-legged, snake-tailed god and went to the intersection of the earth veins in order to use the scales to absorb the earth energy of the place!

To be honest, Shang Lu really didn't know that the scales of the pig-bodied, eight-legged, snake-tailed god could absorb the earth's energy. He had always used this thing to sacrifice jade in exchange for spiritual energy.

But since Sanniang says it's okay, there must be no problem.

After watching his men leave, Shang Lu turned around and moved quickly and silently towards the python on the top of the mountain.

Finally, it stopped about a hundred steps away from the basset snake.

If we go any further, we will be discovered by the python and our whereabouts will be exposed.

But now, it’s not the time to take action.

Shang Lu had to wait until Zhu Quan, Du Feng, Tu Bin and others changed the surrounding feng shui and suppressed the power of Bashe before taking action.

Zhu Quan, Du Feng, Tu Pi and others did not let Shang Lu wait too long.

After about half an hour, Shang Lu noticed that the five elements of energy around him had changed.

The wood energy surges, while the earth energy plummets.

The python lurking on the top of the mountain obviously also noticed something was wrong.

Instead of maintaining its ambush posture, it suddenly raised its head from the deep pit and looked around with its huge eyes, wanting to know what was going on.

The opportunity is coming!

Shang Lu did not hesitate. He immediately controlled the paper man that had been lurking near the heart of the Basher and launched a tentative attack.

These paper figures are as thin as cicada wings, but driven by the vital energy, each one is as sharp as a knife.

Not to mention, they can also explode under the impetus of divine power.

If it were ordinary rocks, they would not be able to stop them and would be easily broken.

But the petrified scales of the basset snake are extraordinary and extremely strong.

The paper figures sent by Shanglu were simply unable to cut through the petrified scales of the python.

If it self-destructs, it will only leave some traces and tiny cracks.

Not to mention hurting the heart of the Basher.

At the tail of the python, a few paper men took advantage of the fact that the python raised its head and found an opportunity to slip in through the gap between the movable snake scales and into the excretory cavity.

But on the heart side, this trick cannot be imitated.

The snake scales at the heart were stacked layer upon layer, leaving no gaps for drilling through.

The paper man's sneak attack failed to work, but it attracted the attention of the python.

It raised its head and suddenly turned around, biting the paper man.

Seeing this, Shang Lu subconsciously tried to control the paper man to dodge.

But he changed his mind in an instant and let the python swallow the paper figures in one gulp.

There is a special digestive fluid secreted in the digestive tract of the basset snake, which can even digest gold and stone.

However, the paper figures released by Shang Lu carried a trace of divine power, which allowed them to withstand the digestion of the python and quickly merge with the human clothes.

The clothes had been corroded and riddled with holes, but the paper man hidden inside the clothes had no damage because of the magical power.

Smilax glabra has two purposes at once.

While controlling the paper man, he reached inside the snake's body towards its heart.

At the same time, he was quickly thinking about how to start from the outside, break the snake's scales and severely damage the snake's heart.

He estimated the hardness of the python's scales and felt that even if he tried to break it himself, he might not be able to do it.

Although some paper men had crawled into the belly of the Basah, given the Basah's strength, these paper men alone could only hurt it but not kill it.

Shang Lu was a little anxious because he couldn't think of a good solution.

"when--"

In the internal organs, the mind suddenly emitted a red light and struck the Yin-Yang Bell.

The ringing of the bell suppressed Shang Lu's irritability and also gave him a flash of inspiration.

"Yin and Yang? Water and fire? Haha, there is a way!"
