Chapter 18 Survival from a narrow escape
When Lu Ming saw the green-scaled snake, he was also shocked: "This is not good!"
Now he had no other choice but to withstand the attack of the Green Scaled Snake.
A trace of determination flashed across Lu Ming's eyes: "If you want to kill me, you will have to pay with your life!"
With a flip of his hands, he held two sharp iron rods in his hands.
"die!"
The iron rod pierced the triangular head of the green-scaled snake at an extremely fast speed.
"Lu Ming, you dare!"
The venomous snake was horrified when he saw Lu Ming suddenly use a killing move in such a desperate situation.
If his life beast, the Green Scaled Snake, dies, he will suffer a great loss.
"Green snake, run away!"
It’s a pity that his order was issued a little late.
At this time, the green-scaled snake had already bitten Lu Ming's calf, and the poison was instantly injected into Lu Ming's leg.
At the same time, the iron rod in Lu Ming's hand also pierced into the head of the green-scaled snake.
"hiss"
The green-scaled snake let go of Lu Ming and hissed in pain.
The snake rolled on the ground, trying to relieve the pain, but as it rolled, its movements gradually slowed down until it completely stopped moving.
"No!"
The venomous snake let out a roar.
His life beast, the Green Scaled Snake, died, which made him extremely sad.
"Lu Ming, I'm going to tear your tendons and skin you alive!"
When the venomous snake went to look for Lu Ming again, there was only a pool of blood on the ground.
Following the blood trail, I found that Lu Ming had rushed to the edge of the cliff.
Just as Lu Ming landed on the ground, he decisively used an iron rod to cut a wound on his calf, and blood spurted out.
He could feel that the green-scaled snake was very poisonous and he was already feeling dizzy.
In order to delay the invasion of snake venom, he could only choose the drastic method of bloodletting.
"Lu Ming, get back here!" The venomous snake became very anxious when he saw Lu Ming appear on the edge of the cliff.
Night Owl also quickly controlled the vines to wrap around Lu Ming.
Lu Ming looked back at the venomous snake and engraved his appearance deeply in his mind.
"If I am lucky enough to survive, I will definitely seek revenge on you!"
Before he finished speaking, Lu Ming jumped off the cliff.
"Damn it!"
The venomous snake rushed to the edge of the cliff in rage and looked down. All he saw was the roaring river, and no trace of Lu Ming.
"what!"
The poisonous snake roared angrily to the sky to vent its anger.
Half a day later, the butcher reached the top of the mountain.
"How's it going? Is it solved?"
Viper said grimly, "Something unexpected happened."
The butcher frowned and asked, "Did you have an accident too?"
Hearing this, the venomous snake looked at the butcher in surprise: "Boss, where are you?"
The butcher said in a deep voice: "Someone showed up and killed us. The man from the Temple of Life Master died, but the remaining kid was rescued."
"What's going on here?"
The venomous snake sighed: "I was careless just now. My green-scaled snake died and Lu Ming jumped into the river."
The butcher's eyes widened. He didn't expect that the venomous snake would lose a life.
He looked down at the rushing river and asked, "Can that kid survive?"
"He was already poisoned by the green-scaled snake before he jumped off the cliff. If he jumps off such a high cliff again, he will surely die!"
"Then let's go back."
In the turbulent river, Lu Ming, who was predicted to be dead by a poisonous snake, did not die.
Before he jumped off the cliff, he took a homemade detoxifying powder, which eliminated most of the green-scaled snake venom.
Now the snake venom no longer threatens his life, but the turbulent river may kill him at any time.
Because he can't swim!
The rapidly flowing river made his natural strength useless. Lu Ming knew that if he continued he would die soon!
"We must find a way."
As he was floating in the turbulent river, his eyes suddenly lit up: "The opportunity has come."
A reef appeared in the middle of the river just in front of him, less than ten centimeters above the surface of the river.
But these ten centimeters became Lu Ming's life-saving straw.
He tried hard to position himself in the rapids in order to catch the reef.
But the river was rushing fast, making it difficult for him to gain leverage, and the undercurrents in the water made it even more difficult for him to straighten himself.
Moreover, such rapids are mixed with sand, stones, trees and other debris. Once hit, your body is likely to sink to the bottom of the river.
Now he is like a boat without oars, drifting in the river.
Fortunately, Lu Ming’s efforts were not in vain, and his general direction was correct.
In the rapids, Lu Ming was about to encounter a reef. He prayed silently in his heart: "May the gods and Buddhas in the sky bless me and let me grab the reef."
Looking at the reef getting closer and closer, Lu Ming opened his eyes wide, not daring to miss it at all.
Ten meters
eight meters
Six meters
five meters
As the distance got closer, a smile began to appear on Lu Ming's face.
Because he was in a very good position, he could easily hit the reef head-on.
四米
Lu Ming held his breath and stretched out his hands forward, trying to grab the reef as soon as possible.
three meters
The position has not changed and everything is moving in the right direction.
two meters
Lu Ming has already made up his mind at this moment that he will fulfill his vow to all the gods and Buddhas in the sky once he reaches the shore.
一 米
At this moment, Lu Ming's eyes flashed with brilliance: "Almost there, almost there!"
Just as he was about to hit the reef and survive, at this critical moment, something strange happened.
An undercurrent hit Lu Ming, causing his body to move sideways several meters, instantly separating him from the reef.
"Damn it!"
Lu Ming cursed in his heart, but his hands moved quickly. With a shake of his hand, a black shadow flew towards the reef.
"Do"
The shadow sank into the reef.
That was Lu Ming's iron rod, with a piece of cloth tied to the end of it.
This was the preparation Lu Ming made when he saw the reef.
Lu Ming thought that his luck was pretty good, but he didn't dare to really leave his life to luck.
When he saw the reef, he prepared his backup plan.
Lu Ming tied the belt to the iron rod for use in critical moments.
It comes in handy right now.
Lu Ming grabbed the belt and quickly climbed onto the reef, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's safe for now!"
At this moment, he had not yet gained true safety. He was still trapped in the middle of the river and had to find a way to get ashore.
Lu Ming was resting on the reef. He was not in a good condition at the moment.
Although the snake venom in his body was not fatal, it still affected his condition. In addition, he had just struggled for his life in the river, so his face was pale. It was considered good if he could exert 50% of his strength.
Two hours later, Lu Ming opened his eyes and sighed, "What bad luck."
While he was resting here, he also wanted to try his luck to see if he could encounter a ship that could save him, but in the end he encountered nothing.
"Then you have to rely on yourself."
He took out two iron rods, looked at the reef under his feet, and suddenly inserted the iron rods into them.
Under his divine power, it was as easy as piercing tofu.
He secured his body in this manner and then entered the water.
The iron rod was constantly pulled out and inserted, and soon it reached the bottom of the river along the reef.
Although Lu Ming can't swim, he is pretty good at holding his breath, so he can do it for ten minutes without any problem.
He looked around at the muddy riverbed, and suddenly, he had an idea and found what he wanted.
"Found it. Now we can go back to shore!"
