Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.

Xu Jun sneered from behind, "Scared after getting this far? Old Ma, the people you hired aren't very good, are they?"

Ma Zhao retorted sarcastically, "You're not afraid at all! You always hide in the back when you're leading the team!"

The light was dim under the dark river, and he couldn't see clearly at all. Xu Jun's face was contorted with rage as he gritted his teeth.

He always lets others take the lead while he stays in the rear. This has long been criticized by those in the group, but it has never been exposed to his face.

"Alright! I'll lead the way! Be ready for battle at any time!"

Having his little scheme exposed, it would be embarrassing to hide in the back any longer. Xu Jun strode forward and led the soldiers to continue their march.

Ma Zhao grinned behind him. This Xu Jun seemed shameless, but after being exposed, he cared a lot about his reputation.

Chang Kun and Ma Zhao stayed where they were. They sensed that the giant snake was still in the distance, with three small snakes still playing on its body, and the water of the underground river beside them was rising and falling.

Xu Jun led his soldiers closer step by step. The headlamps were dim, casting a hazy, gray light on the dark river.

"Let me tell you, there's nothing to be afraid of that snake. With so many of us, one shot from each of us will take it down."

"Upon seeing the giant snake, fire immediately; strike first to gain the upper hand!"

The further he went, the more apprehensive he became, and goosebumps rose all over his body. He could only try to encourage himself as he walked.

When he was only two or three hundred meters away from the giant snake, he felt that the surroundings were so cold that they were almost frozen.

Keep in mind that this was still late summer, and the heat hadn't subsided, so how could the ground be so cold?

"You...you guys, did you feel anything?" Having reached this point, Xu Jun dared not go any further, and turned back tremblingly, wanting the soldiers to go ahead.

But all they saw was the soldier behind them, mouth agape, eyes wide as he stared at the sky, as if witnessing an unbelievable scene.

He felt an even greater chill behind him and could vaguely smell a fishy odor.

"Giggle!"

My teeth are chattering! My heart is pounding!

Xu Jun seemed to be completely out of control, and even turning around to see what was happening behind him was difficult.

He gasped for breath a few times, then with all his might, he turned around abruptly.

Two enormous, lantern-like eyes floated above his head, gleaming with a vibrant green light. Their vertical pupils, thin as blades, slowly contracted in sync with his heartbeat.

"This...I..."

His throat tightened, as if something was gripping it, making it impossible for him to speak clearly; he could only utter a few meaningless "hoarse" sounds.

He wanted to turn and run, but his knees felt like they were made of lead, and he was rooted to the spot and couldn't move.

He had previously been confident that he would shoot the giant snake on sight, but now, faced with its enormous eyes, he was so frightened that he couldn't even move his fingers.

The other soldiers were in a better position; they gritted their teeth, tightened their grip on their machine guns, and were ready to take action.

I refuse to believe that there are any animals in the world that are not afraid of machine guns and cannons.

But then the lantern's vertical pupils widened, and a majestic aura suddenly emanated from it. Xu Jun and his soldiers felt as if they had been struck by a sledgehammer, and they fell backward to the ground unconscious.

"Brother Ma, hurry up!" Chang Kun urged, his steps never faltering. Just now, when the giant snake turned around, he suddenly realized that Xu Jun was not the only one facing the giant snake; there were also eight warriors.

He would feel guilty if he let his soldiers get hurt.

Ma Zhao didn't ask why, and followed Chang Kun closely, knowing that Chang Kun had some unusual abilities with animals.

The two were walking quickly when they suddenly heard a sharp scream ahead.

When the cry reached Chang Kun's ears, his expression changed. He could tell from the sound that the person was hungry; his fluency in the dialect had come into play.

"Quick! Brother Ma, that snake looks hungry, don't hurt the soldiers!" The two rushed forward desperately.

Sensing that the giant snake had opened its mouth wide and suddenly spat out a bunch of grayish-green mucus, drenching Xu Jun and the soldiers from head to toe.

At this moment, Chang Kun and Ma Zhao had already reached within a hundred meters of the giant snake.

From afar, Ma Zhao spotted those two lantern-like eyes at a glance. Just as he was about to raise his gun, Chang Kun stopped him.

"Brother Ma, wait a minute, that snake doesn't look like it's going to eat people."

The light in the dark river was so dim that the giant snake's appearance was not visible at all, but Chang Kun sensed that the snake's large mouth could easily swallow a person whole.

But the snake did not eat anyone; it merely spat out a puddle of filth before turning and heading towards the depths of the dark river.

Before leaving, he seemed to glance at Chang Kun and Ma Zhao.

"Brother Ma, save them first!" Knowing that the giant snake had left, Chang Kun immediately ran to the soldiers and checked their breathing. Fortunately, they had only fainted and woke up after he pinched their philtrum.

"What...what's going on?"

"Why are we all lying on the ground?"

"Ptooey! What's that stuff on my face? It smells awful!"

On the other side, Ma Zhao revived Xu Jun. After all, they were colleagues, and he couldn't just stand by and watch him die.

"Ugh! Holy crap, what the hell is this stuff on me?!"

Xu Jun woke up shouting and wiping the filth off his head and face.

Ma Zhao leaned closer and examined it carefully with his headlamp, then dipped his finger in it and tasted it.

"Ptooey! Ptooey! Damn it, this is shit! You guys got shit poured over your heads!"

Ma Zhao suddenly remembered that when he last captured the fox spirit, he was also drugged and had his face washed with cow dung, just like the people he was experiencing now.

Do all these sentient animals have this kind of hobby? They dare not kill easily, but they can't help but play tricks on people.

Seeing that the soldiers had been revived, Chang Kun approached Ma Zhao and said, "Brother Ma, let me go take a look ahead myself."

According to their senses, the giant snake hadn't gone too far; it was just that its head wasn't facing the group, so no one else saw it.

"Chang Kun, the snake is gone. Why don't we just forget about it and not take the risk?"

"It's alright, I'll just walk a few steps and be right back." Chang Kun wanted to see what the giant snake was up to, feeling as if it was waiting for him over there.

Since it didn't eat Xu Jun and the others, it wouldn't pose too much of a danger to me.

They carefully walked forward for several hundred meters, and when they were only eighty or ninety meters away from the giant snake, they stopped. They heard the giant snake hiss a few times.

Chang Kun suddenly realized, "You're really hungry and need to replenish your energy?"

Even when hungry, it didn't harm anyone; it truly has the demeanor of the White Snake of Miyun.

Chang Kun pulled out wild wolves from his spatial storage and threw them one by one onto the ground. He thought to himself, "The White Dragon has protected this land for so long. It's not a loss to let its offspring eat a few wild wolves."

……

Meanwhile, at Chang Kun's home, it was already three or four in the afternoon.

"Big sister, Little Fire Bun keeps barking, what's wrong?"

Chang Qing was getting a little anxious as the little donkey kept wandering around restlessly.

Chang Mei and the other young maids went into the courtyard, glanced at the animals, and smiled: "Xiao Qing, Little Fire Bun is hungry. Your mother told you to feed it, did you?"

Chang Qing looked dejected: "Huh? I have to cut grass every day!" She hadn't dug for wild vegetables for the past month or two, and the thought of cutting grass made her resistant.

Her eyes lit up, and a good idea popped into her head: "Why don't we hurry up the mountain to graze?"

"Okay, okay! Okay!"

Chang Muxiaoshui and Chang Xiu heard this and immediately clapped and cheered.

You can go to the mountains to play and also bring back some small baked buns to eat. It's a win-win situation.
