Chapter 54

Under Wu Wenxiang's instructions, Chen Jinyong drove Qin Lang to the foot of Qingyun Mountain.

At this point, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.

Qingyun Mountain was originally a desolate mountain, and even during the day, few people came to visit. How much more so at night, when there was not even a ghost's shadow on the mountain.

At this moment, the bright moon hung high in the sky, but with the dense trees and overgrown weeds on Qingyun Mountain, it appeared even darker and more eerie in the night. Even the night breeze brought a bone-chilling cold.

Insects chirped in the mountain.

An intangible pressure permeated the air, and it seemed as if a heavy crisis was lurking all around.

Qin Lang walked up the mountain path, heading for the summit of Qingyun Mountain.

His steps were steady, even though he knew that Andesheng had set a trap.

Qin Lang had thought that with the evidence in his hands, he could force Andesheng to negotiate and submit. However, he did not expect this old man to be so composed and to have control over part of the police force in Xiayang City, which led to him forcing Qin Lang to come here, a move that was clearly one step ahead.

However, Andesheng thought that everything was set up on Qingyun Mountain to ensure Qin Lang's death, but he could never have imagined that Qin Lang had the "home-field advantage" here. After all, in such a desolate mountain, how could there be a lack of snakes and insects?

Therefore, Qin Lang did not need to cautiously investigate where the corrupt police officers were hiding, because his "friends" would find them one by one for him.

At the sound of Qin Lang's low whistle, the originally quiet Qingyun Mountain suddenly became "lively." The rustling sounds from the grass and trees were bone-chilling, and almost all the venomous insects on Qingyun Mountain emerged from their hiding places.

There is a saying in folk: "On the Dragon Boat Festival, the weather is hot; the five poisons awaken, and there is no peace." This means that around the Dragon Boat Festival, various venomous insects become active. However, the weather in Xiayang City was already hot, so the venomous insects had been active for a long time. Therefore, under Qin Lang's deliberate guidance, not only did all the venomous insects on Qingyun Mountain gather at the summit, but even the venomous insects from nearby mountains came to "join the fun."

In an instant, a "torrent" of snakes and insects formed around Qin Lang's body, and this "torrent" of snakes and insects continued to flow towards the summit, creating an extremely terrifying scene under the moonlight.

But Qin Lang was not the least bit afraid, because these venomous insects did not dare to approach him and were only under his control.

"Ah!"

At this moment, a scream came from halfway up the mountain. A black shadow, forced by the snakes and insects, fell from a tree and was quickly swallowed by the torrent of snakes and insects. This guy had intended to shoot from the tree, but he did not realize that he could not hide from the perception of the snakes and insects, and was forced to jump from the tree, with predictable consequences.

Two minutes later, gunshots rang out, clearly indicating that someone was so frightened that they used their gun to shoot at the snakes and insects. However, with hundreds of thousands of snakes and insects surging up the mountain, even if this person used up all his bullets, he could only kill a few snakes, and instead, he only provoked the ferocity of the snakes and insects, which quickly bit him to near death.

Then, another scream echoed, and this time the person attacked by the snakes and insects was quite fierce, wielding a military dagger and killing several large snakes. However, his bravery was only a fleeting moment.

Qin Lang continued to move forward, and at this point, he heard a "rustling" sound beside him—

This was the sound of a large snake moving quickly!

Qin Lang glanced over and couldn't help but exclaim, "What a monster!" Originally, a python at least seven to eight meters long and weighing sixty to seventy kilograms had followed him. This python had brown and white stripes all over its body. Qin Lang looked at it and realized it was an Asian rock python, which had been attracted by the scent of the snake repellent. Qin Lang patted the rock python's head, and soon it slowed down, following behind Qin Lang, keeping pace with him.

In the next few minutes, two more gunmen hiding in the dark suffered the same fate.

But Qin Lang had no time to care about their lives.

Andesheng's actions had thoroughly enraged Qin Lang, making him filled with a murderous intent.

However, at this moment, Qin Lang's phone rang.

"Boy! Make these damn snakes and insects go back!" Andesheng's voice was full of fear and endless anger.

Andesheng had learned from his subordinates that Qin Lang had the ability to "control snakes" and had made special preparations, having his subordinates and himself apply realgar powder to their bodies. However, he never expected that Qin Lang's ability to control snakes was so bizarre, being able to control hundreds of thousands of snakes at once, as if he had mobilized all the snakes in Xiayang City, forming a massive army of snakes and insects, invincible. The realgar powder on Andesheng and his accomplices was useless in the face of the continuous onslaught of snakes and insects!

More terrifyingly, Qin Lang was not just controlling snakes but also other venomous insects, such as scorpions, centipedes, and toads.

In Andesheng's view, Qin Lang, with such abilities, was not human but a devil!

To be honest, Andesheng now regretted his actions. Perhaps he should have accepted Qin Lang's negotiation, which might have prevented this situation. Now, as long as Qin Lang was willing, he could completely annihilate Andesheng and his subordinates. Andesheng's only chance of survival was Tao Ruo!

"These snakes and insects were not summoned by me," Qin Lang said with a cold laugh.

"I know it was you!" Andesheng roared, "If you let these snakes and insects reach the summit, I'll kill this woman! I'll make her die with us! Damn it, come on! Fight us one-on-one!"

Qin Lang's methods had clearly driven Andesheng mad, rendering his previous arrangements ineffective, and the gunmen he had placed were useless.

Even before these gunmen could discover Qin Lang's presence, they had already been bitten by the snakes and insects, leaving them with only half a life.

But Qin Lang could not ignore Tao Ruo's life, so he could only let the snakes and insects stay at the edge of the summit and walk alone to the top.

The summit of Qingyun Mountain, known locally as "Leidaping," means that the summit had been struck by lightning, so it did not grow much vegetation and was relatively flat, like a plain, with only a few scattered trees and some poorly growing grass.

In this situation, once the snakes and insects reached the summit, they would definitely be discovered by Andesheng and his group.

For Tao Ruo's safety, Qin Lang could only walk alone to Leidaping.

"Oh!"

At this moment, a scream came from a nearby tree, and another person fell from the tree, with a large snake, the rock python that Qin Lang had tamed earlier, wrapped around his body.

This person had hidden in the tree, planning to jump down and launch a "surprise attack" on Qin Lang, intending to knock him to the ground. However, he was instead ambushed by the rock python. Although the rock python weighed only about seventy kilograms, once it wrapped around its prey, it would not let go until the prey was dead.

However, the attacker was also a ruthless character. After falling from the tree, he punched the rock python's head fiercely, but this only further enraged the rock python. It swung its tail and wrapped around the attacker's neck. In no time, Qin Lang heard the sound of the attacker's neck and chest bones breaking.

Strangling prey is the rock python's ultimate killing technique.

The night was very quiet, and the sound of the attacker's bones breaking echoed clearly in the ears of those on the summit, causing everyone to shiver involuntarily—

This kid is too ruthless!
