The white cat staggered and was shocked awake, almost falling asleep.

"You damn cat, you ate a large amount of tonic, yet you can't even chase a rural dog away, and you still have the nerve to sleep!" Chu Chi was so angry that his nose was crooked.

"What do we do now?" Xue Yu asked, "Why don't we return to the village first. If the weather is a little colder, and the mountains are sealed in ice, we would starve to death."

"I want to go find Dad." Wen Que pursed his lips and said, "There are some things I want to ask him."

"I'm not going. I get annoyed when I see him." Xue Yu said.

Chu Chi didn't know why Xue Yu was so against his father, but he was clear about the price Xue Husheng had paid for Xue Yu, so he said, "Actually your father is a good person, you have to understand him well."

"You've only met him a few times. You know what he looks like, so you spoke up for him." Xue Yu said coldly. If not for the fact that he was saved by Chu Chi, he would have immediately turned hostile.

"Of course I know." Chu Chi said as he walked over and patted Wen Que's shoulders, "Come, I'll go with you to the Serpent Locking Pool to look for your father."

"What if the Da Hui returns to the village to harm the villagers?" Xue Yu shouted.

"It can harm whoever it wants to. No one can stop it." Chu Chi didn't even turn his head around, "However, there's nothing to worry about. It's looking for trouble with the wild animals, and it's not interested in your village's stupid animals."

"Come with us. At least we can look after each other." Wen Que said to Xue Yu.

Xue Yu stood there for a while before he caught up.

The three of them walked for more than half a day. Along the way, Wen Que told Chu Chi about the legends of the Serpent Locking Pool.

After a while, the group finally arrived at the vicinity of the Locking Snake Pond. The snow here was very shallow, especially within a hundred meter radius of the Locking Snake Pond. There was no snow at all, and the soil on the ground was extremely dry.

All along the way, Crow and white cat were unable to help, because even Chu Chi himself did not know where the Locking Snake Lake was located.

"Is the Green Snake Essence you were talking about in this pond?" When he walked over, Chu Chi was stunned, wasn't it just the place that passed the night after entering the Wen Jia Village?

"Right." Wen Que nodded, "What's wrong, is it very strange?"

"How strange." Chu Chi scratched his head, "I even went down there when I saved you, I didn't feel anything was amiss."

"You're not a monk or Taoist, what can you find?" Wen Que laughed out loud, "Demoness, mortals can't see them."

"Ignorant mortal, I'm too lazy to bullshit with you." Chu Chi looked at Wen Que as if he was looking at an idiot, then thought that it would be better to not bring the white cat with him since his appearance was different from the others. He told the beast to find food on its own in the mountains.

The white cat was straightforward, its tail raised high and it disappeared with a cat step.

Wen Que walked to the nearby small hut and searched for a long time, but didn't find anyone. It was just that there was food stored inside, and a fire was still burning inside the pot.

"Let's wait a bit. They should be back soon." Wen Que said.

Chu Chi and Xue Yu were already tired from walking, so they sat by the bonfire and gulped down their saliva.

"Why don't we have a bite to eat first?" Chu Chi suggested.

"It's not too good to steal food, right? I didn't get permission from anyone." Although Wen Que was against it, his stomach had honestly sold him out, and let out a gurgling sound.

"Stealing food is not a big deal, but starving to death is." Chu Chi removed the lid of the wok straightforwardly. The fragrance became even stronger as the white rice became much more exciting.

"I don't care, I'll eat a bowl first." Xue Yu took a bamboo bowl and started eating.

Chu Chi never treated stealing things as nothing, and it was just food. He picked up a bamboo bowl to scoop up the food and handed it over to Wen Que.

Wen Que hesitated, but in the end, he was still unable to resist the enticement and caught it.

The three of them finished their meal heartily, but their stomachs were not full at all. They looked at each other and did not speak. They continued to fill their bowls. After a while, the big pot of rice was completely finished.

"Who are you?" A young woman walked into the room. She was wearing a black leather jacket, leather pants and leather boots, with wavy hair and big red eyes. She looked like a young female model on a beautiful calendar.

"I am Xue Husheng's son." Xue Yu trembled in fear, like a thief who had been caught red-handed, but immediately reacted and introduced himself to the young woman, "I recognize you, and your name is Lee Fei, right?"

"I am Wen Yi's son." Wen Que replied accordingly.

"I am Wen Yi's son … "My classmate." Chu Chi burped.

Lee Fei said with a cold face: "What are you guys doing here?"

Wen Yi and Xue Yu looked at each other, and didn't know how to reply for a moment.

"We are here to deliver food." Chu Chi said with an embarrassed face, "Seeing the heavy snow sealing the mountain, I'm afraid you guys have not brought enough food."

"You think very well." Lee Fei looked around the house, "Where's the food?"

"If I told you that I met a wild dog on the way and spilled all the food, you wouldn't believe me, right?" Chu Chi said.

"Forget it." Lee Fei laughed, "I don't care what you guys are here for, I just happen to be bored, so a few companions are good as well."

Seeing that Lee Fei was easy to talk to, the three of them no longer held back.

Wen Que asked: "Where's my father? Why isn't he here?"

Lee Fei said, "Don't be anxious, according to the time, they should be back soon."

Sure enough, not long after, sounds came from the side, and Wen Que ran out first.

Xue Yu knew that Xue Husheng would definitely return as well. He stayed by the bonfire, not wanting to move at all, but he was pulled by Chu Chi to the side of the pool.

A string of bubbles emerged from the bottom of the Locking Snake Pond, and figures swam up from the bottom one by one.

Two young men climbed onto the shore and immediately laid down on a pile of sand and rocks. They looked extremely tired, they were all unfamiliar faces, and the last one walking in front was Xue Husheng. He found a rock and sat down, and took a big breath.

Wen Que did not see Wen Yi, and continued to look at the pond, but after a few minutes, there were no movements from inside.

"Uncle Husheng, where's my dad?" Wen Que tensed up and asked Xue Husheng softly.

Xue Husheng touched his hair, seeing Wen Que was a little surprised, he asked: "Why are you here?" And then he saw Xue Yu and Chu Chi, their faces completely ashen.

Chu Chi sized up the other two people who had gotten up from the pond and noticed that their clothes were more or less torn. One of their legs had a large piece of skin ripped off, blood flowed down his neck along his calves and his injuries were quite heavy. He held onto a string of prayer beads, every bead having the shape of a skeleton.

The other one had a shiny blade in its mouth and was carrying a rectangular black wooden box. Angele did not know what was inside.

"Where did my dad go?" Wen Que anxiously asked Xue Husheng.

That calf was the injured man who had barely managed to stand up when he suddenly smiled at Wen Que, "You're Wen Yi's son?"

"Yeah." Wen Que nodded, "My dad went down with you, right?"

The injured man nodded, and walked towards Wen Que step by step, "That's right."

Chu Chi suddenly felt that something was wrong, and his head was spinning. When he looked at Xue Yu again, his eyes clearly had become dazed.

The injured man placed his hand on Wen Que's shoulder.

Chu Chi immediately grabbed Xue Yu and shouted: "Wen Que, run!"

However, just after running a few steps, the two of them fell to the ground.

Wen Que still had not reacted, but he felt his entire body becoming weak as he fainted on the ground.

The injured man had already grabbed onto one of the Skeleton Beads and was preparing to attack Wen Que, he did not even need that one, he looked at Wen Que who was on the ground in bewilderment, then looked at Lee Fei, "You did it?"

"They delivered themselves to my doorstep. You can't blame me." Lee Fei shrugged her shoulders, her smile was extremely innocent.

"What did you do to my son?" Xue Husheng stood up in shock.

"It's nothing, I just put on some sweat medicine." Lee Fei said.

In the instant that Chu Chi fainted, he bit the tip of his tongue.

Although he had not completely understood the situation, he knew in his heart that not one person in this group was a good person. Other than Wen Yi and Xue Husheng, there were a total of four outsiders.

The three teenagers were brought back to the cabin. From this process, Chu Chi gradually knew the names of the other two people, the one carrying the wooden box and using the blade was called Bai Zi. The person holding the skeleton pearl in his hand was called Wu Feng.

Chu Chi did not dare to act rashly, allowing Crow to stand on a tree branch outside the house and observe the house. After concentrating, everything that Crow saw was not much different from what he saw with his own eyes.

After returning to the small hut, Wu Feng lit up a cigarette, took a deep breath and asked: "Do you have more medicine?"

Li Fei shook his head and said, "One more thing. I won't be able to hold on for long."

Wu Feng frowned, and said: "We need to get rid of him as soon as possible, we can't afford to waste any more time."

Li Fei exclaimed in shock, "He's not dead yet?"

Wu Feng fiercely smoked another mouthful of smoke. With just two mouthfuls, he smoked more than half of the cigarette. The long ash of the cigarette did not fall off. "However, it's good that he's dead. It's just that this kid hesitated a bit. Otherwise, how could something like this happen?

"Let me apply the medicine for you. This beast poison is very strong." Li Fei looked at Wu Feng's wound. The wound on Wu Feng's leg looked like it had been scratched by a wild beast, there were four clear red lines on it, it looked like it had only been slightly cut, but he did not know why it bled so much.

Wu Feng shook his head and said: "Let's use hot water. We cannot waste the medicine, we need to save lives at the critical moment."

"The two of you, strip off Wen Yi's son's clothes and take him for a stroll on the mountain. Hurry and lure him over before the sky turns dark!" Wu Feng said.

"Why don't we wait for our injuries to heal first?" Bai Zi unwillingly said, "Now we are all full of wounds …"

"After dark, his strength will increase by more than a fold!" Wu Feng interrupted sternly, "His face is already torn, could it be that he will wait for your injuries to recover before coming back? There's only one chance, if you don't grasp it well, then let's just wait for death! "

Only then did Bai Zi go forward and strip off Wen Que's clothes that were drenched in red sweat and tear off half of it before throwing it to Xue Husheng.

"Take good care of my son." Before Xue Husheng went out, he did not forget to tell Lee Fei.
