942 Imprisonment

Then, Sikong Wuyuan followed Jiang Ming. “I think we should go in quickly. Compared to this painting, I’m more looking forward to what’s inside the stone wall.”

However, Sikong Wuyuan suddenly felt pain. He kept holding his foot, and his eyes were watering.

“Wait a moment. Let me take a look.”

Jiang Ming walked forward and noticed Sikong Wuyuan’s foot. He found that his foot was already inflamed and swollen.

Jiang Ming punctured the swelling and carefully bandaged it. At the same time, he signaled Feng Yunche to help Sikong Wuyuan up.

“Sikong Wuyuan’s leg still needs to recuperate. You can take him back first.”

“Let me go back!” Sikong Wuyuan shouted in pain.

Feng Yunche looked at Sikong Wuyuan helplessly and brought him back.

Jiang Ming and Yuan Hehe went into the stone wall. Before they could enter completely, they heard a hissing sound.

This sound made Jiang Ming and Yuan Hehe alert.

“It looks like we won’t be able to get in,” Yuan Hehe said in a panic. “It’s pitch-black inside.”

Jiang Ming tried to snap his fingers, but the darkness in front of him did not disappear.

“What’s going on?” he asked curiously.

However, Yuan Hehe immediately felt a pain in his hand and threw something out.

However, after he threw it out, the hissing sound became even more intense. Jiang Ming felt that his ears were a little damaged.

After thinking for a moment, he decided to attack according to his instincts.

However, these hissing snakes were very agile, and their movements were silent.

The hissing sound also disturbed Jiang Ming. He had no choice but to pull Yuan Hehe out.

When they reached a spot that was lit up, Yuan Hehe realized that there was a puncture wound in his hand that was still bleeding.

However, there did not seem to be any blood anywhere, as if it had been licked clean by something.

Jiang Ming was about to bandage Yuan Hehe’s wound when he realized that those snakes had also come out.

They were rushing over as if they were here for Yuan Hehe.

The colorful snakes looked very strange.

They stuck out their forked tongues and were about to go forward to draw Yuan Hehe’s blood.

He lifted his leg and kicked the snake.

However, these snakes were extremely agile and climbed onto Yuan Hehe’s body.

He could not help but shout in shock. He wanted to drive these snakes away. He even released all the spiritual energy in his body, but it was useless.

“What should we do now?” he asked.

Jiang Ming wanted to stop the snakes on Yuan Hehe’s body, but he found that some snakes were already in front of him.

He gripped one snake tightly and threw it toward the stone wall.

However, the snake seemed to be sticky and stuck to his hand.

The snakes also found the wound on Yuan Hehe’s body and kept sucking his blood.

Yuan Hehe immediately lost his strength, and his legs went limp.

He staggered and was about to speak.

However, a flute sounded, and after the sound of the flute, the snakes on Jiang Ming and Yuan Hehe’s bodies immediately moved elsewhere.

However, Yuan Hehe had lost too much blood. He felt that he had no strength left.

He almost died.

Jiang Ming noticed Yuan Hehe’s condition and knew he was in a critical state.

“Ning Caichen, I’m very happy to have met you. I hope you can be happy in the future. I might die soon,” Yuan Hehe told Jiang Ming.

Jiang Ming could not help but cry, “You can definitely get better. Don’t think too much about it. You’ll be fine in a while.”

Immediately after, the flute sounded again, but the snakes did not come out at all.

Jiang Ming realized that the flute was controlling the snakes and immediately became alert.

Perhaps the person who played the flute inside could cure Yuan Hehe.

Then, he placed Yuan Hehe on the ground and said firmly, “I can definitely cure you.”

“It’s alright,” Yuan Hehe said gratefully. “I’m already very happy to be able to see you.”

Jiang Ming did not reply. Instead, he went straight into the door of the stone wall.

This time, his eyes were bloodshot.

Seeing that someone had come in, the snakes began to go up again, wanting to bite Jiang Ming.

Jiang Ming slapped the snakes away. He was very strong and had some spiritual energy. The snakes were killed.

The other snakes had the same experience as him.

He did not know how many snakes he had killed. Jiang Ming felt that there were no more snakes coming over, so he walked straight ahead.

He snapped his fingers again.

The strange thing was that this snap of his fingers actually lit up the entire place.

He also clearly saw the person playing the flute in front of him. Only then did he realize that the space inside the stone wall was not very big.

It was a young girl with a jade flute in her hand. Her entire body was covered in wounds, and there was a mole at the corner of her mouth.

She opened her eyes and could not help but laugh softly at Jiang Ming.

“I haven’t seen anyone for tens of thousands of years. Now, I finally see someone. Who are you? Why did you come here? The previous kings did not notice me. You should be the king of this generation, right?”

“Yes, I wonder if you’ve heard of my name? Now, I’m only here for you to save someone.”

Jiang Ming looked at the girl quietly.

The girl then knew who the other party was talking about.

“Your Majesty, is it that child? I felt human blood in one of my snakes, but it has already been killed by you.”

“How can we cure him then?”

Jiang Ming could not help but feel a little regretful.

If he could not treat Yuan Hehe, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

“Your friend is fine now. This snake is connected to spiritual energy. When it dies, it will return whatever it has stolen, like your friend’s blood.”

The girl shook the bracelet around her wrist. “I have a presumptuous request. If it’s possible, can you let me out? I really can’t stay here anymore. I want to see the sun.”

“Your pet snakes attacked us. You have to give us an explanation.”

Jiang Ming said slowly, thinking in his heart.

This girl had some value and might be able to help him a lot.

“I’m sorry.” The girl took a deep breath and apologized. “Your Majesty, I’m sorry for offending you just now. I slept for a while just now and didn’t notice that my pets were attacking you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have let them attack you.”

She began to cough again, and a glint flashed across her eyes.

“Do you think I believe you?”

Jiang Ming rolled his eyes, turned around, and waved.
