Chapter 778 Hunted a python ——2
--------------
" I will go come with you eldest brother," Lin Chen also stood up from the ground wanting to follow after his eldest master who was stepping out of the room. Since Su Wan was going to stay in the room with his mother and grandmother-in-law, it made no sense if he was to stay inside the inn and do nothing except for getting bored, right?
He too picked up a sharp dagger and then walked out of the room following his brother out of the inn, the small town where they came to stay was called the Village of mist, it was named as such because there were hot geysers around the large mountains that surrounded it causing hot mist which changed to cold under the moonlight at night along with winds, to cover the place whether it was day or night.
As soon as Lin Chen stepped out of the inn, he hissed sharply as he rubbed his skin which was getting stung by the steam that had gone cold with night. " How humid and cold, I can feel my skin getting covered with goosebumps. No wonder Grandmother-in-law asked for hot water …it was because of this, she knew that the weather will get colder."
" Hmm," Lin Jing grunted as long as it was not Su Wan he was not willing to talk much, with his machete in his hands, he walked towards the exit of the town and headed towards the mountainous range which surrounded the town and the village that was just a few distances away from the town, however unlike the mountain in or pheasants.
" No wonder the innkeeper was asking for such a high price for just their village, this one was much more barren and nothing but trees which were wild and did not even have a single fruit growing on it, wild shrubs popped here and there but they did not see any rabbits or pheasants.
" No wonder the innkeeper was asking for such a high price for just a night stay in that run-down in," remarked Lin Chen as he pushed a wild bush to the side and then stepped further inside the forest. " This land seemed to be barren."
" It will only get worse from here," muttered Lin Jing as he swiped his machete on the gnarled branches and cut them down one by one as he walked further and further inside the forest with a troubled look on his face. " The great ocean city does not even have forest around their land, only vast ocean with nothing but soil which is not favourable for growing many things…"
Lin Chen did not say anything as the two brothers advanced further into the forest, they continued to look around but for a long time, they did not see anything.
The two brothers did not even see the huge creature that was trailing after them.
" I was thinking that if Wan Wan has a girl, then I will name her Jiao Jiao… and if it is a son then I am thinking to name him Lin Chen Feng, what do you say big brother?" Lin Chen remarked as he told his brother about the names that he had come with Lin Rui who was thinking about what kind of name they needed to give to their first child.
When Lin Jing heard the names of the child from Lin Chen, he felt his lips twitch. They were going to name their daughter as someone's precious treasure but their son was going to be named after a cold blade that shone under moonlight. What a tragedy.
However, just as he was feeling amused suddenly he felt the sound of rustling behind him and then a cold glint flashed in his eyes, " There is danger!"
Lin Jing felt that something was wrong and turned around but his sudden move startled Lin Chen so much that he stumbled and fell backwards, his hand still clutching the blade which he brought with him.
As he fell he caught the sleeve of his brother and then leaned backwards causing Lin Jing to fall together with him.
The scent of blood filled the air as the two turned to look at the big python on which they were sitting, Lin Chen's dagger was sticking to the head of the snake while Lin Jing had chopped the snake with its machete when he fell just now.
The python was bleeding from the wounds that he received, its eyes were closed and from the looks of it, it was clearly dead.
Lin Jing was shocked for a moment before he quickly pulled his brother off the python. The two brothers looked at the python in front of them in a daze, Lin Chen looked at the python's bleeding head and then turned to look at his brother before saying, " No one is going to fight me, the child's name will be either Chang Feng or Chang Jiao."
Just now he and his brother could have been attacked and might have even died —— but as soon as he said these two names, his luck seemed to have shone and he and his brother were able to escape this calamity.
Lin Chen was very superstitious and believed that it was the name that he had picked up for his child that saved him …no, maybe it was right to say that the child that was yet to be born had much better luck than his or her fathers, as soon as he mentioned the child, this tragedy was escaped by them!
" You can name them as you like," Lin Jing looked at the huge snake, from the looks of it this python was clearly very healthy, even though his stomach was not bulging at the moment, it was very thick and long —— its middle part was as thick as Lin Jing's waist!
No wonder they did not find any small animals, those things were all eaten by this thing which was roaming in the mountain!
Lin Chen looked at the python and then turned to look at his brother and asked, " What now eldest brother?"
Lin Jing looked at the python with his sharp eyes and then said, " Bring it with us"
