Clouds and Moon Shadow

Chapter 474 Run faster, or the snake will bite you!

The little farce has ended.

Gu Qingyue explained in detail the effects of the potent medicinal powder she made.

She also mentioned the uncertainty of the drug's effects, and her suggestion was that she go into the Ten Thousand Snake Cave first to test the drug's effects, and then everyone could leave if there were no problems.

Of course, Gu Qingyue made this suggestion based on the fact that she herself did indeed have a cheat code and was safe from any trouble.

As soon as she brought it up, Mu Yun Chu immediately rejected it.

How could we possibly let Gu Qingyue test the medicine on herself?

What are the secret guards for?

In the eyes of Mu Yun Chu, a prince born into nobility, no matter how brave and courageous he was on the battlefield, there was no reason for a master to take risks and let his subordinates reap the benefits of medicine testing.

"Send the subordinates away," Yue Ling and Mu Dong said in unison.

Seeing the eager expressions on their faces, Gu Qingyue sighed softly.

"I'll go instead," Gu Yuanen said, coming over as well. How could he let his little sister take such a risk? If anyone should go, it should be him, the older brother.

"Fourth Brother, you have something more important to do," Gu Qingyue said in a low voice, instructing Gu Yuanen to meet her outside.

"You stay outside with these two hostages. Wen Qinghong and the others will be here soon. When they are needed inside, you can bring them in..."

Actually, she had a selfish motive: she hoped that her fourth brother wouldn't go in and take the risk, and that it would be safer for him to take Wen Qinghong and the others with him.

After explaining the arrangements for the rendezvous, Gu Qingyue thought for a moment and said, "Then... let Little Moon go. It's small and can easily hide."

Let's try letting the little moon run back and forth first.

In her heart, she naturally didn't want Yue Ling and Mu Dong to try it; the danger was too great, and they had no room to hide.

Although in their own eyes, this was something they were supposed to do.

Once Gu Qingyue made her decision, no one else raised any objections.

Let's see how things go.

Before entering the Valley of a Thousand Flowers, Gu Qingyue naturally distributed her self-made Forget-Me-Not Masks to everyone, which she had prepared beforehand.

The last time I came here, I felt that oppressive feeling, and now that I'm so far away, I can almost feel it again.

It is evident that the miasma spread by the wizard's temple was indeed powerful.

As soon as everyone put on their masks, their minds, which had been feeling a bit dazed, immediately cleared up.

Everyone looked at Gu Qingyue with grateful eyes.

Of course, Gu Qingyue did not take Zhu Zhongshi and the female disciple into account.

As prisoners of war, shouldn't we be aware of our own limitations?

At this moment, their hands were bound, and they could only watch helplessly as Gu Qingyue and the others put on a strange thing.

Gu Qingyue didn't want to reveal that she possessed something like the Forget-Worry Pill or Forget-Worry Tablets, especially since the Forget-Worry Tablets were made with many rare and precious Chinese herbs.

Let them watch; if they want it, no way!

"What did you put in here? It smells like flowers and fruit." Qin Fang leaned closer, subtly probing.

Gu Qingyue waved her hand, "I'll tell you when I have time, hurry up and go."

Gu Qingyue wasn't in the mood to talk about these things right now.

She thought she had made thorough preparations, such as the mask containing the "Forget-Me-Not" pill, as well as various antidotes, wound medicine, sedatives, and other pills.

She even prepared the ropes for climbing.

Little did they know that they would have to pass through the Cave of Ten Thousand Snakes just before setting off!

Now she's more concerned about whether this potent snake repellent powder is actually effective.

Finally, led by Zhu Zhongshi and the female disciple, the group arrived outside the Ten Thousand Snake Cave.

Gu Qingyue and Mu Yunchu stood side by side not far away, looking at the snake pit.

"It really is a secluded and wonderful place," Mu Yun Chu couldn't help but exclaim.

Gu Qingyue nodded; she truly hadn't expected this.

The place she had searched for so long using her mental power several times without success was actually here!

The snake den is located in a very tricky location.

Standing at the bottom of a cliff, surrounded by towering mountains, with a sunken basin in the middle, and a huge rock on the side of the bottom of the basin, behind which lies the snake cave.

The area around the snake cave is overgrown with weeds and has jagged rocks.

What's wrong with the saintess? Why did she choose this place to enter and exit?

Gu Qingyue almost couldn't help but swear!

No wonder Mu Dong lost track of that fox-eyed woman last time!

Indeed, unless you see her enter this position with your own eyes, who would imagine that there is a downward-sloping opening here?

Are there millions of snakes guarding it inside?

Once the location was confirmed, Gu Qingyue generously sprinkled the medicinal powder onto Xiaoyue's body.

The little guy looked completely bewildered.

"Go inside and run a lap, I'll check on the powder."

Gu Qingyue pinched its big tail. "Be careful, run fast, don't let the snake bite you."

Currently, besides herself, only Xiaoyue has the ability to escape unscathed.

She was certain of that.

Especially considering this little guy's ability to eat venomous snakes, I bet snakes would run away at the sight of it, regardless of whether it has snake-repelling powder on it.

With everything prepared, Little Moon reluctantly moved toward the cave entrance.

Yes, it just moves over step by step; it doesn't want to go in, it stinks!

Gu Qingyue sighed and rubbed her forehead. This little guy has been clearly slacking off lately! He's not enthusiastic about doing anything when asked to.

Ugh! I'm so tired!

If Gu Qingyue could read Xiaoyue's mind at this moment, she would definitely hear the following: Master! There's absolutely no need for me to go in and deal with these snakes! The King of Snakes, Little Golden Snake, is enough!

Unfortunately, she can't hear me!

Then, everyone witnessed the following scene: the little golden snake, with its chopstick-length body, went inside in a very cheerful and carefree manner.

Little Moon remained crouched at the entrance of the hole, motionless.

Gu Qingyue: We're going to rebel!

Seeing this, Mu Yun Chu became even more interested. He squeezed Gu Qing Yue's hand and asked, "Don't you think that little golden snake is a little excited?"

"Excited?" Gu Qingyue didn't see it.

"Hmm, don't rush. I see your little red fox doesn't want to go in, but the little golden snake went in. Do you think the little golden snake is going to do something?" Mu Yun Chu lowered her voice.

Gu Qingyue sighed, "It's no use. It went in and naturally no snake attacked it, since they're the same kind, but how can we be sure of the powder's effectiveness? Sigh!"

Little Moon, by giving up at this time, where does that leave her dignity?

Fifteen minutes later, "It's out!" Mu Dong suddenly shouted.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and out of the grass, the little golden snake was just as cheerful as when it went in, emerging unharmed.

"I'll try the powder myself," Gu Qingyue said, looking at the smug little golden snake, and took out a small porcelain jar.

To avoid wasting time, she should go in.

None of these little guys are reliable.

"I'll go instead. Give me the powder," Mu Yun Chu said, grabbing Gu Qing Yue's hand as she anxiously tried to go inside.

"Master, there are no snakes inside!" Mu Dong's voice came again at this moment.
