The concept of a born saint begins with Strange Tales from Liaozhai.

Suddenly, Ah Niu, with his sharp ears, heard a faint sound.

It felt like withered leaves being pressed down by something, or like a heavy body rubbing against a stone.

His eyes lit up immediately.

His years of experience in the mountains made him immediately slow his pace and carefully feel his way in the direction from which the sound was coming.

He hadn't walked more than a few steps when he gently pushed aside the branches blocking his view and peered ahead.

next moment.

He froze.

A sudden chill ran down my spine and up my head.

Ah Niu felt a tingling sensation on his scalp, his limbs were ice-cold, and his legs were somewhat unresponsive.

Not far away, on a huge blue stone, lay a terrifying blue snake, a serpent.

The snake was two zhang long, with a thick body, even thicker than his thigh. Its entire body was covered with fine blue scales that shone brightly in the light.

Ah Niu was horrified, frozen in place, not daring to even breathe.

Su Chen naturally noticed him as well.

He slowly raised his enormous snake head, his dark, vertical eyes looking indifferently at Ah Niu.

It was just a casual glance.

Ah Niu felt as if he were being targeted by some ferocious beast, and his heart almost stopped beating.

Looking at the person who had wandered into the mountains, Su Chen couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

With his current physique, he is no longer afraid of people, but at this stage, he does not want to have any contact with people and does not want to cause unnecessary trouble.

Su Chen shook his head.

The next second, his huge snake body slowly slithered, his thick body sliding off the bluestone, the scales rubbing against the stone surface, making a soft but unsettling rustling sound.

He swayed his long body and, under Ah Niu's terrified gaze, swam toward the bushes not far away.

The tall wild grass swayed gently.

The enormous, blue snake body quickly disappeared into it.

In just a few breaths, it completely disappeared into the depths of the forest.

The forest returned to silence, with the rustling of leaves in the wind.

After a while...

Ah Niu suddenly came to his senses.

His body was still trembling slightly, as if he had just woken up from a nightmare.

The next moment, he felt a chill in his lower body.

Looking down, I saw that my pants were soaked.

He was so frightened that he wet his pants without even realizing it.

Ah Niu's face turned pale and then red, and he couldn't care less about his shame; only one thought remained in his mind.

escape!

He turned around abruptly, almost dropping his bow and arrows, and stumbled as he ran wildly towards the foot of Wushan Mountain.

In the mountains and forests, only the sound of his hurried and frantic footsteps could be heard.

It was as if the terrifying giant snake behind him was chasing him.

Ah Niu stumbled and fell as he ran down Wushan Mountain, and soon returned to the village not far at the foot of the mountain.

It was midday, and many people in the village were busy at work.

Some people were repairing farm tools, some were chopping firewood in the yard, and a woman was carrying a bucket of water back from the river.

Seeing Ah Niu rush into the village with a look of fear on his face and panting heavily, a middle-aged villager who was weaving straw rope at the door of his house immediately frowned.

"Ah Niu? What's wrong? Why are you so flustered? What happened?"

Ah Niu, supporting himself on his knees, was panting heavily, his face still somewhat pale.

After a long while, he finally raised his head and said in a trembling voice, "Mist Mountain... there are serpents on Mist Mountain!"

"What a huge snake!"

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged villager was taken aback.

"poisonous snake?"

Ah Niu nodded hurriedly, his face full of fear.

“It’s true, I saw it with my own eyes on that big blue rock halfway up the mountain. It was terrifyingly long, thicker than my leg, and probably more than two zhang long!”

He spoke while gesturing with his hands, becoming more and more excited as he spoke.

"When that snake raised its head, it was almost up to my chest!"

As he listened to Ah Niu's description, the middle-aged villager Shi's face gradually became serious.

The villagers who were busy working nearby gradually came closer when they heard their conversation.

"What happened?"

"Ah Niu, what were you just saying?"

"Is there a giant snake in Wushan?"

More and more villagers gathered around.

Soon, Ah Niu explained it again, and their expressions all changed.

"what?!"

"Ah Niu, are you telling the truth or lying?"

"Don't talk nonsense!"

"If Wushan really has such a big serpent, that would be incredible!"

Ah Niu waved his hands frantically, "How could I dare to lie! I saw it with my own eyes!"

Seeing that his words didn't seem to be false, the surrounding villagers immediately stirred up a commotion.

Chapter 104 Wushan Mountain God Su Chen? !

"What if there really is a giant snake lurking in Wushan? Who will dare to go hunting in the mountains in the future?"

“Misty Mountain is the closest mountain to our village…”

"Ah Niu is lucky this time. If it were anyone else, it's hard to say whether they would have survived encountering that giant serpent..."

Amidst the vulgar and controversial discussions, their faces were filled with worry and unease, and they developed a fear of Wushan.

At this moment, Shi, who was next to A Niu, sighed and said, "If we can't go up Wushan, how will we survive?"

"Take a longer route and hunt in other mountains?"

"That means we'll have to walk more than ten miles!"

In an instant, the fishy smell and the rabid herbs spread like wildfire.

After some discussion, they finally decided to take some people up the mountain to take a look.

If it were a monstrous snake, it might not be able to eliminate that giant snake!

Wushan is very close to the village, and if there is a giant snake lurking there, it will always be a threat to them.

Before long, more than ten strong men came together in the village.

Some carried bows and arrows, some carried stone axes, and others carried wooden forks. Led by Ah Niu, the group headed towards the place on Mount Wu where he had previously seen the giant snake.

The mountain road was rugged and the forest was dense.

The fisherman kept stopping to observe his surroundings, fearing that the giant snake might suddenly leap out of the bushes.

When they got to the vicinity of the large blue stone, they saw nothing.

Halfway up the mountain, the bluestone still stands quietly, with only a few withered leaves blown down by the wind on it. The so-called giant snake is nowhere to be seen.

They searched through the grass, checked the cracks in the rocks, and some even searched the surrounding area along the hillside.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard they searched, they never found the so-called giant snake.

For a moment, they couldn't help but feel a little doubtful.

"Ah Niu, are you seeing things?"

"Yes, if there really were such a big snake in these mountains, how come there isn't a trace of it at all?"

Upon hearing this, Ah Niu became anxious.

"I really didn't lie to you!"

He quickly raised his hand, saying, "If I, Ah Niu, am lying, may I never be able to hunt anything in the mountains again!"

Seeing that he had even made such a vow, Xingzuo Renjian didn't say anything more.

Unfortunately, after searching for a long time, they still found nothing.

If they couldn't find a way to make a big profit, they had no choice but to give up.

Back in the village, seeing the fear on the faces of the villagers, the village chief pondered for a moment and then suggested,

"From now on, when you go hunting in the mountains, be more careful. If you notice anything suspicious, run away immediately..."

The villagers nodded quickly.

While they were filled with worry.

On Mount Wu.

Su Chen raised the python's head and gazed into the distance at the foot of the mountain, his dark eyes calm.

He naturally noticed the commotion of Ah Niu and the others going into the mountains.

This misty mountain is very large, and it is often shrouded in a thin mist, except on sunny days.

With him deliberately hiding his presence, it was naturally difficult for these villagers to find him.

As for the "hui" they mentioned, this was the name for a large snake during the Western Zhou Dynasty, which is not surprising.

Su Chen stopped looking, focused his mind, and used the Sun and Moon Absorption Method to absorb the sunlight that was falling from above at dusk.

[Innate Talent & Constitution: Blue Boar (Outstanding)]

Energy required for the next stage of physical transformation: 31649

[Energy: 24308]

The next transformation is not far off!

Time passed slowly.

In the blink of an eye, another ten days have passed.

During this period, Su Chen's life was not much different from usual; he continued to absorb the essence of the sun and moon in Wushan.

The only difference was that he didn't go back to the place where that large blue stone was.

However, since he was already very large, there were no wild beasts on Mount Wu that could threaten him. When he gathered to absorb the essence of the sun and moon, he no longer restrained himself.

Therefore, when one calms down and focuses on cultivation, it is inevitable that some unusual phenomena will occur.

Occasionally, a faint golden light would shimmer on the summit of Wushan Mountain.

Early one morning.

Several villagers who went up the mountain to hunt looked up at Wushan and saw a faint golden light shining on a certain spot on the mountaintop.

The light appeared and disappeared in the morning mist, shrouded in mystery!

What is that?

With great effort, they could vaguely see a huge blue shadow looming at the top of the misty mountain.
