The Venomous Serpent Valley was not far from Cairo Town, about five kilometers away. Si Zhanbei and the rest walked quickly and arrived in half an hour.
When they arrived at the Venomous Serpent Valley, the sky gradually brightened, revealing the true appearance of the valley.
It was a beautiful valley. If not for its name, it would be like heaven. The sky wasn't completely bright yet, and the hazy valley looked like a fairyland at first glance. It was ethereal yet fascinating.
The grass was lush, the trees were lush, and the fragrance of flowers assailed their nostrils. However, it was said that a valley like this was filled with venomous snakes, and one could easily lose their life if they were not careful.
Si Zhanbei and the rest stopped outside the valley and took out the repellent goggles that they had prepared beforehand. After putting them on, they walked into the valley.
Smoke was rising from the chimneys in the valley. The people inside had already started cooking.
Hu Dongyang and the rest were stunned when they saw the smoke. "Didn't they say that this valley is filled with venomous snakes? Why are there people living here?"
"Why can't people live here when there are venomous snakes?" Sheng Fenghua asked. If there were no people living here, the venomous snakes and the secret officials would not have sent them here to rescue them.
It was obvious that they were very familiar with this place. Perhaps this was one of their dens, just like the previous villa.
"Aren't these people afraid of venomous snakes?" Hu Dongyang could not help but mumble, wondering if the people living here were not afraid of being bitten by snakes in the middle of the night.
"Venomous snakes don't exist everywhere. They also have their own areas of activity. As long as they are not in the way, they won't hurt people." Sheng Fenghua explained and walked toward the direction where the smoke was coming from.
It was still early. If their comrades were really brought here, they hoped that they could rescue them before the venomous snakes and the secret officials arrived.
To be honest, Sheng Fenghua did not want to face the secret official at all. She was fearful of this man.
The group concealed themselves along the way and soon approached the residential area. The houses looked very simple. Most of them were built with wood and bamboo.
When they arrived at the residential area, they split up to look for their comrades.
They did not find anyone after making a round. They could not help but feel a little anxious and gathered together again.
"Leader, we didn't find anything!"
"We didn't find anything here either."
"We didn't find anything either."
Si Zhanbei's brows knitted tightly when he heard everyone's words. He thought to himself, 'Could it be that they came early and the fox and the others were not sent here?'
If that was the case, then why did the other party send them here?
Could it be that they wanted to use poisonous snakes to deal with them?
Si Zhanbei quickly rejected this thought as soon as it flashed through his mind. It was impossible for the other party to be so bored. If they really wanted to deal with them, a real gun would definitely be more effective than this method.
"Let's look for it again." Si Zhanbei said. He felt that it was very likely that they did not search carefully. Otherwise, the other party would not have asked them to come here again and again.
"Wait, I'll go grab someone and ask them," Sheng Fenghua said when she saw that everyone was about to disperse to look for someone else.
Rather than searching blindly like this, it would be faster to find someone to ask.
After that, Sheng Fenghua quickly went to one of the houses and grabbed a woman who was cooking to interrogate her.
Seeing Sheng Fenghua suddenly appear, the woman was very scared. But when he asked her, she didn't know anything at all. In the end, a child ran out of nowhere and said to her, "Let go of my mother, I'll tell you where they are."
Sheng Fenghua glanced at the child and said, "Tell me first, then I'll let her go!"
