Chapter 125: The first meeting of humans and snakes
Night still falls at the exact time, the moonlight replaces the sun, covering the earth with a coat as cold as water, and using darkness to hide those terrifying creatures.
Around the clearing of the big locust tree, only the light shines through the Sun family's courtyard. The surrounding houses are completely silent. The whole village is filled with a sour smell, as if all the big vats for pickling sauerkraut are open today.
Lid.
Lang Hongyi and I stood in front of the main hall of the Sun family and sniffed our noses. Not only would the snake be irritated by the smell, even if people smelled it, their mouths would secrete saliva unconsciously.
In the middle of the yard, Zhang Wei stood there trembling, his shadow stretched out by the lights in the room, looking lonely and helpless. The most ridiculous thing was that his uncle even hung two of them around his neck to clean them up.
of chicken.
That's right, his role tonight is to act as bait!
When it was still dark, a group of us arrived at Sun's house. Before entering the door, almost everyone's eyes were fixed on the extremely quiet canopy of the large locust tree.
In my mind, I can almost imagine a scene where the big snake is like a hunter, coiling quietly among the branches, spitting out its core and watching us motionless.
The air was not only filled with sour smell, but also had a fishy smell that was different from fish, which was even more disgusting.
This should be the aura revealed by the big snake's breath. The dogs in the entire village, even those who were not dead, were very quiet, hiding in the corners and trembling.
At certain times, the perception of animals is much sharper. They can sense in advance and hide desperately against strong people who are absolutely suppressed in order to save their lives.
When Uncle Wu arrived at Sun's house, he began to think of ways to help the child Maomao close the orifice that had accidentally opened on his body. Without this inducement, the big snake would give up on the child in the house and turn his attention to the human target in the yard.
On Zhang Wei.
Zhang Weide looked at me and Lang Hongyi with a look that made people feel bored. He held a broiler in one hand and warned us pitifully, "Dear relatives, my uncle is not a relative, you two
My dear ones, my life depends on you two tonight, you must protect me, I haven’t had a girlfriend yet, if something happens now, I will die young..."
The tense atmosphere at the moment gave Zhang Wei a bit of a comic effect. I raised the corner of my mouth and teased him, "Now that you know I am great, will your words be effective in the future?"
"It works. It doesn't matter when you use it. From now on, I will be your umbrella in rainy days, your boat across the river, your delivery boy when you are hungry, and your electric fan when you are hot."
Lang Hongyi didn't know what was wrong, but he actually joined in our useless chat, "She comes to me faster when she's hungry, and we use the air conditioner when she's hot."
Then he looked at Zhang Wei's rolled eyes and said very clearly, "I heard that if a python like this eats people, there are two ways. One is to use its strong muscles and hard scales to wrap around and strangle every bone in the human body.
Cut it off and then swallow it; the other is to swallow it alive!"
Hearing such a topic, Zhang Wei could no longer stand still, clamped his legs together, and said with a sad face, "I want to go to the toilet..."
I couldn't help but laugh out loud. It was a tense time before the war, so it was good to joke around, at least it wouldn't make the time so difficult.
At this moment in the house, the old lady and grandma have arrived. It must be said that this half-ghost-fairy old lady really misses her descendants and came to guard her children early. Uncle Wu opened his eyes and is talking to the old lady inside.
say.
If something happened, they would probably warn in advance. The Sun family gathered in the room where the child slept. Without the old lady to cause trouble, Maomao slept soundly today and showed no signs of waking up.
Lang Hongyi and I were facing the courtyard wall. Not only could we take care of Zhang Wei, but we could also hear the voices inside the house.
"I really appreciate the favor of you guys this time. With you here, I feel much more at ease."
"This is all as it should be. You are so polite. I will ask you to protect the people in the house if something happens later. After all, we don't know how the opponent will come in and what the purpose is."
Uncle Wu spoke very politely to the old lady. The old lady was not an unreasonable person either. She might have been beaten by me yesterday, so she caught us and gave us a lesson.
"Don't worry, these are my old lady's descendants. I will naturally protect them. I will also return this favor to you. When the time comes, I will help you with the matter in Ghost Crying Valley."
Just when I heard this and felt a little happy, the voice of the old lady in the room suddenly became louder, "Attention, little ones outside, there's something going on!"
Just after the sound fell, we saw the cracks in the courtyard wall, and many triangular heads appeared vaguely on the wall, with winding figures crawling towards the courtyard.
Zhang Wei screamed "Oh my god"...
He threw away the chicken that was coated with agarwood in his hand and wanted to run in our direction. Unfortunately, Uncle Wu had already made a cruel move and tied a rope around his waist and tied the other end to the small shed.
If you want to run, untie the rope first!
When the snakes started to cross the courtyard wall and fall into the courtyard, Lang Hongyi and I moved.
After a day of psychological construction, I tried my best to put the fear of snakes into my brain. I just treated them as chickens with feathers. I took the yellow dragon wooden stick in my hand and aimed at the seven inches and swung it like a practiced hand.
Everyone knows that when you hit a snake, you have to hit it within seven inches, but what the seven inches are and where they are, many people don’t know.
I have studied it carefully and found that the seven inches of the snake refer to the heart.
If you want to defeat your opponent, you must first understand your opponent.
The position of the snake's heart will also change depending on the length and thickness of the snake. Only experienced snake catchers can confirm the position of the snake's heart at a glance, which is a test of my eyesight and accuracy.
The Huanglong wooden staff is indeed a special weapon for killing snakes. What I like most is this long one!
As the old saying goes, every inch shorter is dangerous, every inch longer is stronger. Not only is the wood of this yellow dragon wooden staff hard and heavy on the hand, it is like the length of a trident. One side is a wooden handle with a spike protruding from it, and the other end is a y.
The font-shaped fork can fix the shape of the snake head.
Facing the densely packed large and small snakes spitting out their cores, I tried several times, and finally started to gain more accuracy in my hands. The more I fought, the more I learned!
Lang Hongyi directly used the short knife that the coffin boy brought us to cut the snake that swam in front of him in two cuts, causing blood and internal organs to fly everywhere.
Zhang Wei left two chickens behind, and finally rushed behind us before the snake kissed the tender meat, and entered the house screaming.
Just when Lang Hongyi raised his foot and violently crushed a snake head that was close to his leg and was about to attack, the cold feeling in the surrounding air became obvious. We both raised our heads almost at the same time and looked towards the top of the wall.
A naked figure with long hair hanging around his body appeared there. The most eye-catching thing was not other things, but a pair of vertical pupils emitting yellow light on this person's face, and his stretched out lips that made a swaying sound.
Forked tongue.
And the scaly snake body that joined together below his calf and became round and reflected the moonlight.
