Killing the Giant Python

At the entrance of the East Summer Mountains during the weekend.

Feng Zhi arrived at the agreed location with the supplies she had bought on her back.

Chu Yao, dressed in a tight suit and holding a sword, looked as if he had been waiting for a long time. He took out a map, pointed at the red mark, and he made a comment.

"The giant python is fond of sleeping. The alternation of day and night will create a perfect time for us to attack for a few hours. We need to speed up or we won't be able to make it in time!"

"Wait!" Feng Zhi subconsciously grabbed Chu Yao's wrist and said.

Chu Yao stopped in his tracks and lowered his eyes, staring at her shaking hands. He asked, "are you afraid?"

"No! I must get the Philosopher's Stone!"

"But if you and I work together, we have at most a 70 percent chance of dealing with the giant python. I hate surprises!"
