Chapter 148: Reinforcements Arrive
Kill!
With a saber in one hand, Su Wangchuan walked through every corner of the hall.
There were moments when a snake that had slipped through the net managed to bite him. But the specially tailored beast-hide lining of his clothes blocked the fangs, and his own defensive protection was high enough that the venomous snakes failed to break his skin or draw blood.
After nearly half an hour, the hall was finally cleared completely.
“Wangchuan!”
“Are you all right?”
Instructor Yu arrived at that moment with a hastily assembled team. They stepped carefully over the piles of snake corpses outside the hall, blades stained with snake blood—clearly, they had encountered venomous snakes on the outskirts as well.
Behind him were Constable Wu and a group of yamen constables and runners. When they saw the densely packed snake carcasses inside the hall, each of them frowned, unsure where to place their feet.
Su Wangchuan stepped forward to greet them with a smile.
