Chapter 1359: Her Composure in Chasing the Snakes Away

There was no change in Yun Jian’s expression except a gleam that flashed across her eyes. In contrast, the students from her school tensed up once they heard approaching shrieks from Woolim Military School students.
“W-what’s going on… What’s happening?” Han Ming looked terrified when he snapped his head to Leng Hanzhe and asked anxiously.
“It’s… It sounds like they’re being chased by snakes. Run!” Leng Hanzhe did not look good either but he was already the calmest one in reaction compared to those around him.
“S-snakes? I’m the most scared of snakes! Ahh!” Lin Shuya’s legs nearly gave out and caused her to fall to the ground. She turned pale immediately and wanted to be the first to run off.
“It’s snakes. You can’t run.” Yun Jian crouched on the ground and placed a palm on it to feel the vibrations coming from afar.
“Yun Jian, are you trying to get us all killed?! You already said it’s snakes and you don’t allow us to run!” Lin Shuya could barely suppress her fear as she went berserk with the urge to run.
It was then she heard Leng Hanzhe. “Listen to Yun Jian! Whoever runs now, there’s no need to stay with us for the next seven days!”
Leng Hanzhe’s order frightened Lin Shuya even more, so she dared not run anymore.
“Since it’s snakes, let’s go up the trees!” Xiang Chishi who was with Lin Shuya suddenly suggested.
Listening to the approaching footsteps of Woolim Military School students, everyone was already quivering in fear, so they looked for big trees when they heard what Xiang Chishi said. Even Lin Shuya who would never climb a tree to take care of her image was scrambling up a tree now.
By then, Yun Jian had lifted her hand off the ground and straightened up.
“Snakes can go up trees too,” she said.
This reminded the students who were already on the tree. That was right, snakes could go up trees as well. What—what were they going to do? Were they really dying here?!
No! They did not want to die…
It was at the same time they heard Yun Jian speaking calmly, “Take out papers, books or anything flammable with you. Snakes are scared of fire and smoke. With fire comes smoke. They won’t dare come over once we have a fire lit.”
The guys were struck with realization once they heard Yun Jian. The students took out books and papers from their military rucksacks and piled them up the fastest they could before Yun Jian fished out a lighter, lit it, and threw it to the pile altogether.
Simultaneously, they saw Woolim Military School students running toward them with tens of snakes slithering behind them. When the Woolim Military School students came to the bonfire, they jumped over it while the slithering snakes seemed to realize something and turned away immediately to flee like they had ran into some sort of enemy.
Everyone wore an alert and fearful expression. Yun Jian was the only one who crossed her arms and watched the snakes leave standing right behind the bonfire.
The students on the trees climbed off after they made sure the snakes actually left. Xu Wei, Wu Bukui and others who led their schoolmates toward another direction earlier breathed in relief. Yun Jian’s schoolmates, on the other hand, were impressed by Yun Jian’s composure despite the emergency.
She was calm and composed, not at all panicked and anxious.
They then recalled that Mu Ying had mentioned her and Yun Jian surviving in the Amazon rainforest in the beginning and the first creature Yun Jian had encountered upon entering the Amazon rainforest was snakes. The method of chasing the snakes away just now was exactly part of outdoor survival’s general knowledge.
This meant that…
“Yun Jian, have you really spent six months in the Amazon jungle?” Leng Hanzhe looked at Yun Jian with a slight frown.
The question caused everyone to turn around and train their eyes on Yun Jian like they were trying to get an answer by staring at her.
