"The people in our village are extremely angry, but after seeing the three-headed snake, no one is his opponent, so at first our method was to avoid it, but this thing is getting more and more arrogant, and there is no use hiding. It often runs away
He came to our village to look for food. Recently, he ate six more people in our village. We felt that if we continued like this, we would have to let him eat him sooner or later, so we thought of going to the swamp to ambush him. And in
Before this, we had actually killed several people trying to deal with him."
The old patriarch sighed again and said, "If it weren't for you, we don't know how many people would have died. Even...even I feel that all of us here would have died, and we might not be able to kill him. Fortunately, you showed up. Thank you so much."
Got it!"
Chen Yang was secretly shocked. This three-headed snake was indeed so powerful that it had forced their village into such a desperate situation.
But when you think about these people being ordinary people, it's not hard to understand that something obviously doesn't look right about a snake.
"My two sons also died in the hands of the big snake." The old patriarch said slowly.
Chen Yang was startled, "My condolences, old patriarch."
The old patriarch shook his head and said, "There is nothing to be sad about. They died to protect the village. I feel proud of them. It's just this big snake. We have to let him die no matter what."
Chen Yang nodded.
At this moment, someone came in from outside the door.
"Clan leader, it's about to start."
The patriarch then stood up and said, "You sit down for a while, I'll go see if my old lady has cooked the food."
"good!"
Saying that, the old man has already entered.
He came out not long after, holding a dish in his hand and saying with a smile, "Let's go and sit there."
When I went out to the village, I found that a long table had been set up on the main road of the village. People were constantly placing vegetables on it.
After seeing Chen Yang, those people clapped their hands.
"Come on, come on..." The old patriarch put the dishes on the table and pulled Chen Yang to sit down in a place that represented the most distinguished position. "You sit here."
As he said that, the others had already picked up the dishes and chopsticks.
Then, everyone had almost placed the dishes and rice, and slowly found their seats and sat down.
"Folks!" The old patriarch was sitting next to Chen Yang. He stood up, raised a bowl of rice wine and said, "This time we went out to ambush the three-headed demon snake and it was very successful, but the reason for the success was the man next to me.
Chen Beifang, it was he who acted righteously and killed the demon snake, otherwise we might not be able to sit here drinking and eating meat today, come on, let’s toast him!”
Everyone stood up and toasted Chen Yang.
This made Chen Yang a little embarrassed, so he could only stand up and salute everyone.
After drinking a glass of rice wine, Chen Yang felt that everyone was getting hot.
"Come, eat some food!" the old patriarch laughed.
The serious troubles that had been in the family for many years have been eliminated, and the people in the village are very happy. They really eat meat and drink wine.
Chen Yang was also really hungry, and they tasted pretty good, so he just focused on eating.
Not long after, these people came over one after another to toast Chen Yang's wine.
With such enthusiasm, Chen Yang had no choice but to drink with them, so he could only drink one by one.
Fortunately, the old patriarch was a smart man. Seeing that Chen Yang was only focusing on drinking and had no time to eat, he said to them: "Okay, everyone's wishes are met, don't respect me, otherwise there is nothing they can do."
It’s time to eat, okay, okay, just eat by yourself.”
Everyone laughed and went back to their seats to eat.
It wasn't until quite late that the long street banquet broke up.
Chen Yang followed the old patriarch back to his home and arranged a room for him to sleep in.
"Go to sleep..." the old patriarch said, "If you need anything, you can come to me. It's getting late now, so go to bed early."
Chen Yang nodded.
There is no entertainment in this kind of rural life. Chen Yang was also sleepy, so he went to bed and fell asleep.
It wasn't until he climbed three poles the next day that Chen Yang finally woke up.
As soon as he got up, the old patriarch came forward and said with a smile: "Did you sleep well?"
"Okay!" Chen Yang felt a little embarrassed, "I got up late."
"It's okay, it's okay!" the old patriarch said, "Come on, come on, have something to eat."
As he said this, the porridge was served, along with some pickles.
Chen Yang didn't mind it either, so he sat down and started eating.
Chen Yang has a lot of curiosity about this place.
Logically speaking, I have come to the world of the Mortal Beings, but these villagers don't look like the Mortal Beings.
Chen Yang couldn't ask, so he could only bury these doubts deep in his heart and wait for himself to discover them.
The old patriarch breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Chen Yang didn't dislike his porridge.
After eating two bowls of porridge, Chen Yang stopped using his chopsticks.
"Old patriarch, I still have something to do, so I have to leave here today."
"Get out of here, where to go?"
"Let's go to town." Chen Yang said with a smile.
The old patriarch did not try to persuade him, "Okay, if you want to go to town, it's still a little far away. It takes two hours to walk. Well, it just so happens that some of us are going there today. Otherwise, you can go with our people."
"
"Okay, thank you very much, patriarch!"
"Hey, you're welcome!"
Saying that, the old patriarch went out to organize things.
It didn't take long for it to be organized.
A dozen young and middle-aged men in front were pulling things on bullock carts.
Chen Yang stepped forward and took a look and found that they were all grains or other things.
"Is this being sold out?" Chen Yang asked curiously.
Unexpectedly, those people smiled bitterly and did not speak.
"Come on..." The old patriarch pulled Chen Yang aside, stretched out his hand and gave Chen Yang a bag of money, "This is for your travel expenses."
Chen Yang was startled, looking at the heavy money.
After taking a look at the village, Chen Yang actually discovered that it was a poor village.
"Old patriarch, how can this be done?" Chen Yang refused, "No, I don't need any travel expenses..."
"You kid..." the old patriarch tried to force him to do it, "What do you mean no travel expenses? You have to spend money to eat, drink and live outside. Why don't you use it? Just take it and come here..."
"Old patriarch, I really can't accept it!" Chen Yang said quickly, "It's true, please don't be polite to me."
"You're welcome!" The old patriarch became anxious and forced the money into his hand and said, "You have helped us so much, and we have nothing to entertain you. You... if you don't even have money?
If you don’t accept it, wouldn’t you look down on us?”
Chen Yang was immediately speechless and could only clasp his fists and say, "Thank you very much, old patriarch."
"We should be the ones thanking you!" Seeing that he didn't refuse anymore, the old patriarch said with relief, "If it weren't for you, we don't know how many people would have died. By the way, where are you going?"
