The White-Bone Demon of the Farm is as rich as a country

Chapter 299 Giant Snake

At that moment, everyone present turned pale as paper, their eyes widened, and their mouths opened wide, as if an egg could fit in. However, no one could really see what was happening.

The person who was originally standing on the shore...that person actually disappeared out of thin air!

"Hurry up and leave the river bank! Hurry, hurry up and leave!" Wu Anhou shouted with horror on his face. His voice became sharp and piercing due to excessive fear, and he even broke his voice.

At this moment, he has completely lost the dignity and composure he usually has as a marquis.

Ru Yue and Chu Ning'an looked at each other. When their eyes met, they could clearly see a deep sense of fear in each other's eyes.

They were relatively far from the riverbank, their minds focused on how to successfully cross it. Though the night was already as dark as ink, the moonlight still shone brightly, like mercury, across the landscape. The moment the guard vanished, an immense, serpentine, black shadow flashed by like lightning.

If the guard had not suddenly disappeared, they would almost all suspect that they were hallucinating or seeing things.

The two of them secretly thought that something was wrong and didn't dare to delay for even a moment. They hurriedly ran forward. As Ru Yue ran, she shouted at the top of her voice: "My Lord, there are dangerous things in the river. Please get everyone out of there!"

After hearing Ru Yue's words, the others mistakenly assumed that she had witnessed the entire incident. They all rushed towards her like a swarm of bees, eager to ask what had happened.

Marquis Wu'an watched helplessly as his personal guards vanished from view. It felt as if a million ants were gnawing at his heart, and anxiety and unease surged through him like a tide. His eyes widened, his voice trembling with anxiety. "Ruyue, what on earth did you see? What exactly... dragged little Anzi away?"

Because he was so panicked, even Wu Anhou's wording became confused and his words were unclear.

The guards who had successfully reached the other side of the river at this time also had astonishment and confusion written all over their faces, and their bodies were shaking slightly involuntarily.

He mustered up his courage and shouted towards them in a trembling voice, "My Lord, what the hell is that...what the hell is that?"

Obviously, this sudden change made this battle-hardened guard panic.

Ru Yue knew everyone was frantic and anxious, so she didn't dare delay even a moment. She quickly recounted everything she had witnessed, "My Lord, that thing moved at lightning speed. I didn't have time to see who it was. I only caught a glimpse of a massive black shadow slithering along the riverbank like a ghost, and then the elder brother vanished into thin air."

After hearing this description, everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment. For a moment, they didn't know how to deal with this extremely strange situation.

Just as everyone fell silent, Chu Ning'an, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly broke the deadlock and slowly said, "In my opinion, judging from the black shadow's movements, it is very likely a giant python of enormous size."

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a thunderclap exploding in the crowd. Everyone gasped and wondered in their hearts, how huge a python would it take to make a living person disappear in the blink of an eye so easily?

Thinking of this, everyone's expression became more solemn.

Everyone looked at each other, stunned for a moment, as if their souls had been sucked out, completely losing their own opinions and direction.

What kind of incredible coincidence did Wu Dabao have that he was able to successfully cross the river right under the nose of that black shadow!

At this moment, the behemoth had clearly fully awakened, regaining all its vigilance and strength. In such a situation, attempting to cross the river in the same way was simply wishful thinking. How could one possibly be so lucky?

Just when everyone fell into deathly silence, Wu Dabao, who had already reached the other side of the river, suddenly shouted at the top of his voice: "My lord, I am willing to attract the monster's attention here. How about you let the brothers over there take the opportunity to see if they can cross the river?" His voice was like lightning that cut through the night sky, instantly breaking the solemn and depressing atmosphere on the scene.

Upon hearing this, the crowd suddenly burst into cheers. Many people were very excited, and several people even walked directly to Wu'an Hou and volunteered to try to cross the river.

Ru Yue, who was standing aside, kept frowning and thought to herself: These people's ideas are really too naive.

Even if someone managed to cross the river by sheer luck, there were so many people waiting to cross. Regardless of whether they would be lucky enough to do so again, the monster's incredible speed was enough to make it so enraged that not only would Wu Dabao be killed, but those crossing the river would also be swept into the river in an instant, becoming its prey.

Thinking of this, Ru Yue couldn't help but feel a chill running down her spine.

She stretched out her hand with a slight trembling hand and gently pulled Chu Ning'an's sleeve.

Following her gaze, Chu Ning'an also had a tightly furrowed brow, and his originally handsome face was now filled with gloom. It was obvious that he strongly disagreed with Wu Dabao's idea.

Ru Yue was filled with worry and fear. She stared at the calm yet treacherous waters, a terrifying thought swirling in her mind: Would that mysterious being ever reach the shore? If not, where did the pile of bones on the shore come from?

At this moment, Chu Ning'an suddenly raised his finger and pointed at the bones scattered on the ground. His face was solemn and his tone was cold. He said: "I advise everyone not to act rashly. If you provoke it, I am afraid that more innocent people will be killed!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Anhou beside him seemed to wake up from a dream and hurriedly waved his hand to signal everyone to retreat a distance. However, it seemed that everything was too late.

Suddenly, a slight rustling sound broke the brief silence and was clearly heard by everyone present.

Someone shouted in terror, "There's something! Everyone, be careful!"

However, the warning came too late.

In an instant, a huge, dark monster as thick as a water tank swam over quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it approached the riverbank, and the people standing at the forefront bore the brunt of the attack. They didn't even have time to cry out for help before they were mercilessly devoured by the terrifying monster.

The people who had gathered together scattered in an instant, fleeing in panic in all directions.

Everyone had a terrified look on their faces, and they frantically took out various weapons from their bodies, preparing to fight a life-and-death battle with the terrible guy in front of them.

There were a few agile people in the crowd who swung their long swords without hesitation and slashed and chopped at the monster fiercely.

There was only a loud "clang" sound, followed by bursts of dazzling sparks flying everywhere.

What was shocking was that despite their best efforts, the sharp blade only left a few shallow white marks on the monster's hard scales, and could not even cut through the inch-thick flesh.

It seems that these few slashes caused minimal damage to the monster, at most only causing some insignificant scratches on its skin.

Chu Ning'an was quick-witted and quick-handed. He tightly protected Ru Yue beside him, turned around and ran away quickly.

He knew very well that with the strength of the people present, they could not be a match for the monster.

He didn't particularly care about his own safety, but no matter what, he would never let his beloved Ru Yue suffer even the slightest harm.

Marquis Wu'an quickly organized his personal guards and bravely faced the ferocious beast, engaging in a fierce battle with it.

Taking advantage of this gap, Ru Yue finally got a fleeting opportunity to take a closer look at the true face of the monster.

When she took a closer look, she was immediately frightened out of her wits - it turned out that what appeared before her was actually a giant python as thick as a water tank and more than ten feet long!

The behemoth was so huge that the people surrounding it and trying to fight it seemed as small and fragile as ants in comparison.

In just a short moment, the battle situation became one-sided.

The giant python opened its bloody mouth and kept devouring the humans who approached it.

Each bite creates a horrifying crunching sound, followed by another unfortunate victim being buried in its horrific belly.

In a short while, several bodyguards had become dead souls in the giant python's mouth.
