Stunning Dragon Wife-Chapter 22 - 21
Chapter 22: Chapter 21
"Not good."
Zhang Xiaoshan had just touched a part of the Red Blood Ganoderma when the tail of the Red Training Snake King slammed down, leaving him no choice but to abandon taking it all.
"Sss."
He grabbed forcefully, leaping up and sliding down from a rock face almost one hundred and seventy-eight meters high, snatching a part of the Red Blood Ganoderma with him.
One hundred and seventy-eight meters was already the height of a forty to fifty-story building.
Zhang Xiaoshan was descending rapidly.
"Crack crack crack"
With one hand clutching a remnant of the Red Blood Ganoderma and the other constantly tearing at the vines around him, they kept snapping due to the acceleration of gravity.
Watching Zhang Xiaoshan escape, the Red Training Snake King also swiftly moved along the rock face, pursuing him.
When he was just over twenty meters from the ground, Zhang Xiaoshan’s legs suddenly exerted force and he stomped heavily on the rock wall, propelling himself in a lateral flight.
"Whoosh."
Below the rock wall was a stream, and Zhang Xiaoshan landed on a towering tree on the opposite side.
The Red Training Snake King, cunning as it was, imitated Zhang Xiaoshan and, with a flick of its body, also landed on the tree.
"Damn it, has this Red Training Snake King really become sentient?"
Zhang Xiaoshan was already injured at this point, paying no attention to his wounds as he hurriedly jumped down from the tree and picked up his basket from the ground.
And he took off running!
"Sss."
Zhang Xiaoshan felt a gust of cold wind attack and swiftly dodged to the side.
"Crack."
The Red Training Snake King’s tail smashed into a large tree beside Zhang Xiaoshan, a tree as thick as a person’s waist, and it was forcefully split apart.
The impact was comparable to a car traveling at over a hundred kilometers per hour. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
Zhang Xiaoshan was somewhat skilled, but he was clearly aware that he was outmatched by a monster like the Red Training Snake King, not to mention the horde of snakes behind him. If he got entangled, would he still be able to survive?
Run!
Without a second thought, Zhang Xiaoshan just kept sprinting forward.
"Swish swish swish..."
Wherever he passed, branches made noise.
Twenty minutes later, Zhang Xiaoshan burst out of the back mountain’s exit.
White Dragon Village was now in sight.
"Huff huff..."
The journey into the mountain that took him most of the day, now took Zhang Xiaoshan only twenty minutes to sprint out, which was absurd.
In life and death situations, human potential is always pushed to the extreme.
At this moment, he was gasping for air, drenched in sweat.
He turned to look back.
All was quiet.
The Red Training Snake King and its horde did not pursue further.
"That was close, I almost ended up snake food back there."
Only then did he dare to relax his vigilance, sitting down on the ground with a thud.
"Hahaha."
After a brief moment, Zhang Xiaoshan suddenly burst into laughter.
Just because of what he held in his hands.
A third of the Red Blood Ganoderma!
In the final moment, he had still snagged a third of the Ganoderma.
"Indeed, fortune favors the bold. Although this third of the Lingzhi is not as valuable as the whole, selling it for three or four hundred thousand should be no problem, and paying off Wei Bao will be easy. I only need to sell a very small part of it, and I can still save some to make medicine for my sister-in-law!"
Calculating in his mind, Zhang Xiaoshan was quite happy and proud.
"Red Training Snake King, just you wait. Once I absorb the Qi of a few more women, I’ll come back to the back mountain. Then, not only will I take the entire Red Blood Ganoderma, but I’ll also take your gallbladder."
"A hundred-year-old snake gallbladder is also an invaluable treasure."
Zhang Xiaoshan made a plan in his heart and then descended the mountain towards the direction of the village health clinic.
He had sustained quite a few injuries, and if he went home, he would definitely worry his sister-in-law, Yu Xiuxiu; it was better to go to the health clinic first to handle his injuries.
It was already getting late, and the village was very quiet, pitch black.
Zhang Xiaoshan, carrying the basket of medicinal herbs, soon arrived near the health clinic.
"Hm?"
When he was two or three hundred meters from the health clinic, Zhang Xiaoshan hesitated.
Why was the light on?
"Apart from me, only the village chief, Wu Damming, has the keys to the health clinic. Could he have come?"
"What’s he doing at the health clinic at night?"
Zhang Xiaoshan sensed that something was off and slowed his steps, quietly approaching the health clinic.
"Click."
Suddenly the lights in the health clinic switched off, and it was pitch black once again.
"Was I discovered?"
Just as Zhang Xiaoshan thought about leaving, he suddenly heard voices coming from inside.
"Look at you, so anxious. Don’t hurry, let me strip."
"Hehe, don’t strip, just use your mouth."
"You’re shameless."
A man and a woman, their conversation lewd.
Zhang Xiaoshan listened with astonishment on his face.
He quietly approached the window.
Looking through the glass into the inside.
The darkness was non-existent for Zhang Xiaoshan, whose eyes had mutated, allowing him to see everything inside the health clinic clearly.
A balding old man was reclining on the chair in the pharmacy, and a plump woman in her forties was dutifully squatting on the ground, busily attending to the old man.
"My goodness!"
Zhang Xiaoshan was astonished by the scene inside.
It was indeed Wu Damming, Jia Lanhua’s husband.
And the woman was an old widow from the village, Su Xiangmei.
How did they end up together?
Zhang Xiaoshan was truly shocked.
Although the Widow Su was past her prime, still exuding charm, she was far less young and fetching than the sensual Jia Lanhua.
The last time, Jia Lanhua even complained that Wu Damming couldn’t satisfy her, so how come he was out philandering now?
"Hehe..."
All of a sudden, Zhang Xiaoshan smirked devilishly.
"After owing me that subsidy for so long, now I’ve finally caught a hold of your dirty secret."
"Crack..."
Leaning back in the pharmacy chair, Wu Damming was just getting into the swing of things when the closed door suddenly made a noise, and the bolt was pulled.
"Who?"
Wu Damming and Su Xiangmei, who was attending to him, were both startled.
"Click"
With a sharp flick, the overhead light in the pharmacy was turned on, and the room brightened instantly, revealing Wu Damming and Su Xiangmei’s semi-naked figures, stark and clear.
