Qin Shen's Inn
Chapter 93
"Diudiu, you have grown a lot taller this year, and you are now the same as me." Standing beside Diudiu, Longlong gestured, and found that his former little friend was already as tall as himself, and he could no longer see the hair on his friend's head. up.Squeezing Diudiu's arm, Longlong appraised,
"You are still too thin, you need to eat more to gain weight."
"Yeah." Diu Diu nodded vigorously, looked at Longlong's stocky figure and said enviously, "I wish I was like you, I'm too thin, and my father said that a stronger wind would blow me away."
Longlong looked at the little Baiyang with green onions and was also very envious, and said dejectedly: "My father said that no matter how fat I am, he will not want me anymore, and that I will still be of this size when I grow up..." Longlong touched his Stomach whimpering, "It's obesity."
The two little guys looked at each other, and saw envy and depression in each other's eyes.
"It would be great if it could be neutralized."
"No."
"Hey!" The two little guys slumped their shoulders, just like Longlong's math and Diudiu's sports. The head teacher, Mr. Wu, always said that it would be more perfect if the two children's math and sports could neutralize each other. up.
It is impossible to be perfect in everything, and there will be pursuits only if there are shortcomings in life.
Carrying the basket, Diudiu and Longlong set off from the medical hall to the woodware shop.
Because of Chang'e's flight to the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival last year and the vicious murders during the Chinese New Year, Hongye Town has gained a nationwide reputation, both good and bad, but in short it is a fire.After the fire, Hongye Town attracted many young people to travel, and the town's primary school and Zhu Yao's house became must-see attractions, which made people laugh and cry.
The appearance of many new faces in the town has already made everyone feel surprised, and brought a lot of business. The residents are quite happy, but there are many disputes when there are too many people. This old street tofu shop owner is cursing at the door of her shop. .
"...Which wicked and smoking bastard, ran over in a gust of madness, and brought the tofu box to the ground without saying sorry, how did my parents teach me?"
The proprietress picked up the dried tea scattered on the ground and dusted off the dust. It was a pity that such a good tea was dried, and the dust on the ground could not be sold and could only be eaten by herself.
"Sister, sell these cadres to me."
The proprietress looked up, and saw a tall and thin young man standing next to her, with a hairstyle similar to the star poster her daughter had posted in the room, with a little stubble on his chin, and a pair of brown eyes with a bit of melancholy, The vicissitudes of life look like a performance artist. At first glance, I thought it was the star himself.
I haven't seen it, I guess it's a tourist in the town.
"Young lady will not sell these things if they are stained with dust. You can look at other things."
"It's okay, just wash it off." The young man smiled with the corners of his lips curled up. "My cat likes this one. If I don't eat it today, I will lose my temper."
Only then did the proprietress notice that the man was holding a snow-white cat in his arms, with a pair of amber colored glazed eyes that were indescribably beautiful, "Oh, that's fine, I'll weigh it for you, it looks like a catty for so many , how much do you want?"
The man who licked the cat said, "Give it all to me."
After giving the dry tea to the man, the proprietress took the money and touched the white cat twice, "This cat is really beautiful. It must be imported from a foreign country. It must be very expensive."
The man turned sideways unobtrusively, "It's just an ordinary native cat. It's no worse than those expensive cats that cost thousands of dollars. Are you saying it's for nothing?"
The man's hand scratched the white cat's chin twice, and the proprietress was very moved when she saw the man's gentle and patient appearance, but it's a pity that he is a foreigner who doesn't know the details, otherwise it would be good to introduce her to her daughter.
The proprietress looked at his receding back with regret, and suddenly shivered violently. Suddenly, there was no warmth in the streets and alleys with people coming and going. The cat was dead...
"Grandma, let's buy tofu."
The child's clear voice drew the proprietress's attention back, and she broke out in a cold sweat for a short moment. The smiles on the faces of Diudiu and Longlong who came to buy tofu were a little stiff.
"Diudiu and Longlong, what kind of tofu do you want? Grandma will get it for you." The proprietress moved her stiff body twice, and slowly regained her warmth standing in the sun.
"I want soft tofu and firm tofu." Diudiu pointed to the two kinds of tofu on the container.
Old Street Tofu Shop sells all the tofu freshly made and sold. It seems that there are not many of them, and the business seems to be sparse, but it is actually fresh. Many foreigners come here to eat tofu nao, which is absolutely satisfying.
"Dudiu, and some more dried tea." Longlong looked at the basket and was a little greedy, and the dried tea here can be eaten as a snack.
"Longlong, grandma's dried tea is sold out today."
Longlong pointed forward, "Isn't that one?"
The proprietress looked in the direction Longlong was pointing at, her face turned pale instantly, she had obviously sold it to that young man before...
"Dudiu, just now the grandma in the tofu shop looked so ugly, she didn't sell me the dried tea when she had it, it's disgusting." Longlong complained while holding the basket.
Diu Diu Shun Mao, "It's okay, maybe it's because you suddenly feel uncomfortable, so your tone is heavy. Didn't that grandma say that the tea was dried up on the ground, it's not clean, and she won't sell it."
"Okay." Longlong pouted, "But I want to eat."
Diu Diu patted the little bag on the side of his clothes and said, "Let's go, let's go to the deli to buy food, five-spice dried tofu and tea eggs."
"Great, Diudiu is the best." Longlong took Diudiu's hand and shook it happily several times.
The two little guys who were given the mission of shopping by adults happily went to the deli hand in hand.
Today, Saturday, is the day when the old man of the Qin family invited Qin Shen and Zhang Tonghai to dinner. For the family banquet in the evening, the old man asked the nanny to make preparations, and picked up Diudi in the morning.
If it wasn't for Qin Shen's polite refusal, the old man wished they could spend Saturdays in the town.
In the woodware store, Qin Jing calculated the income of the woodware store this month, and she felt pretty good. The restaurant that ordered wooden barrels in the store before ordered more than 100. The store has been busy with this matter recently. The couple lived in In the town, I didn't go back to the inn very much.
Qin Jing put down her pen and clicked on the account book. She thought it would be better to stay in the woodware shop in the future, and go to the inn when she had nothing to do on weekends.
Seeing Zhang Tenghai's obsessive love for his son, Qin Jing wanted to rub his arms.It is better for parents and children to keep some distance and give them independent space.
"Grandma, we're going to the next door. Grandpa told you and grandpa to have lunch." Diudiu's voice came from outside the shop.
Qin Jing poked her head out and said, "Got it, you guys go, we'll come over at noon."
……
At 04:30 in the afternoon, Qin Shen saw that the sun was getting late, so he could get ready first and go to the town at 06:30.
"Hey, such a big snake!" Standing behind the bar, Qin Shen looked up after watching the time, and was startled by the big snake in Rand's hand.
"It was caught outside, a water snake weighing more than ten kilograms." The big water snake was wrapped around Rand's arm, and he pinched the snake's head. No amount of struggle was futile.
This kind of snake often appears in fields, mountains and rivers. It is not poisonous, and it is bred and sold as a vegetable snake. But it is the first time Qin Shen has seen such a big one. The thickest part is thicker than Rand's arm. To say the least, it weighs more than ten kilograms, and the sum of the head and the tail is as tall as someone.
"Why is it a snake again!" The day before yesterday, he also saw a long brown snake that was suspected to be a rattlesnake swimming in the direction of the mountain, because it was dark at that time, and he couldn't see clearly.Thinking about it afterwards, he probably made a mistake. There are no poisonous snakes in Hongye Town, let alone rattlesnakes.
"I went out and looked around and saw several. I will prepare some snake repellent medicine and release them tomorrow. Be careful when you walk outside. I saw poisonous snakes."
Qin Shen frowned, "Could it be that there are poisonous snakes in Baidang Mountain? I've lived here for more than 20 years, and I really don't know anything about it. I've seen so many snakes in the first year of my life. I'll make a phone call and ask Hong Ye."
Seeing that Rand wanted to take the water snake to the kitchen, it was probably an extra meal at night.
"Wait, give me this snake, and I'll take it to the old man."
Liu Niang, who was not eating melon seeds and was sewing, asked without raising her head, "Master Zhang likes this?"
"I talked with the old man. He said that when he was young, he had no food to eat in wars, so he caught mice and snakes as meat dishes. He said that he still misses them." Bringing the snake over is like bringing a dish to add to the meal. .
Liu Niang approached the clothes and broke the thread with her teeth, and said, "This snake is big enough. If you kill the boss at the inn, you can take half of it. Come, stretch out your hand."
Rand, who was holding the snake, opened his arms and let Liuniang play with it. Although there was not much expression on his face, Qin Shen saw his eyes softly.
Rubbing her forehead and covering her eyes, Liu Niang didn't love him as the boss anymore, and all turned towards Rand! "All right, all right, just give me half."
"Do you want to cook it well?" Rand stayed in the deep mountains and old forests for several years to get revenge. His cooking skills are as good as his ability to survive in the wild, and he is even better at making snakes.
The body of the snake caught by him was stiff, probably because he felt a strong murderous aura and knew that he was not far from death.
"what?"
"What's the problem?" Rand asked Liu Niang.
Liu Niang shook her head, "Probably got the spirit energy from somewhere, this snake is just an ordinary snake, I thought it was enlightened."
"You can do it without enlightenment, kill and eat meat, and let it hang around outside the inn to scare people!" Qin Shen waved his hand and said, "Rand wants you to do it, and I will bring the ready-made one over there."
For a snake weighing more than ten catties, Rand picked the best and most tender parts and put them in a casserole, stewed them with wolfberry and angelica, made salt and pepper snake bones, snake skin, stewed snake soup, and made a red stew with chicken nuggets , and finally put the shaved snake meat and sliced snake skin into a fresh-keeping box for Qin Shen to take with him, so that the old man can make water snake porridge.
Looking at the ridges and ridges on the snake skin, Qin Shen grinned in disgust. He is not afraid of snakes but he doesn't like to eat snakes. He always feels that the taste is weird, even if it looks delicious, he doesn't really want to try it.
"The old man will be happy when he sees it." Qin Shen was talking while driving the car, looking at Zhang Tenghai who was sitting in the passenger seat. Know what you're doing.
Soon Qin Shen knew, because Zhang Tenghai said: "I got to know the staff of the town government. Recently, there have been a lot of snakes in Hongye Town, not only near the inn, but also in the town. The police have received several reports. I reported to the police that a snake had entered the house, and when people arrived to catch the snake, the snake had disappeared.”
"Why do so many snakes appear for no reason?" Qin Shen muttered.
"The police said that someone was releasing animals nearby, but..." Some of the words were intended to reassure people so as not to cause commotion. "Be vigilant when you go out recently, and tell Diu Diu that you may not go to a place with dense grass."
"Yeah, I wanted to ask Hong Ye earlier, turn on my phone..." Qin Shen gave Zhang Tenghai the phone and asked him to help contact Hong Ye.
Hongye Town is in the depression of Baidang Mountain, near the mountain, there are naturally many snakes, insects, rats and ants, but there are Qinglong Shenjun and mountain gods in the town, and the animals on the mountain will not rush down the mountain, which may disturb the cleanliness of adults, so these snakes must It's a foreign snake and doesn't know the rules of the town.
"Don't you guys release any kind of coercion?" The local creatures know how to avoid taboos, but the outsiders don't know that, with full aura of domineering, they can drive away all Xiaoxiao.
"Who said there was such a thing?" Hong Ye, who was eating a tomato, looked at Qin Shen with both laughter and laughter.
"..." Qin Shen was embarrassed, he made it up by himself.
They were videotaping, and Qin Shen wanted to ask Hong Ye about the inexplicably many snakes in the town.
Hong Ye said: "We usually cover up our breath, otherwise it would be a bright light in the dark. Everyone knows that Qinglong Shenjun lives here in seclusion, so it's so boring."
"Ok."
"A lot of snakes came to the town suddenly, I have already noticed." Hong Ye changed the subject and said with a serious face: "But this time it is very strange. These snakes are not spiritual creatures, no spiritual consciousness, but ordinary snakes. I patrol I looked around and found no strangers."
The stranger in Hong Ye's mouth refers to a cultivator.
"There are two possibilities. His strength is very strong, higher than ours. Or, this person restrained his breath and deceived me and Meng Zhang."
In the age of the end of the Dharma, the monks in this world are withered. The most powerful people in this world are the gods who protect the world. The strength is higher than them, unless the gods and demons from other worlds come here, but these ruthless characters want to come to the mortal world He must also obediently go through the formalities at the Wangxiang Inn, no matter how ruthless he is, he cannot be ruthless than the Emperor of Heaven.
Therefore, the answer was ready to come out, and the person who attracted countless snakes had some secret method to restrain his breath, which was undetectable to Qinglong Shenjun and Hong Ye.
"Recently, you should pay more attention. Coming to Hongye Town is nothing more than one thing..."
Qin Shen understood Hong Ye's unfinished words, for the sake of Wangxiang Inn. "Maybe it's someone from the Ghost Eye Sect seeking revenge, I'll pay attention."
"Well, we will always keep an eye out, and if we find any clues, we will kill them immediately." Hong Ye's face remained unchanged, and his tone remained the same, but the chilling intent could not be ignored.
Someone has made trouble in Hongye Town several times, which has seriously affected the tranquility of the town and the safety of the people. The mountain god is protecting one side, and it is time for him to take action.
It was the first time Qin Shen saw him like this, and he had a better understanding of the power of the mountain god.
Something flashed through Qin Shen's mind, and he grasped it, "We caught a snake today, and Liu Niang said that he felt spiritual energy on it."
"Where is it, show it to me."
Zhang Tenghai held his mobile phone, and the camera silently aimed at several insulation boxes in the rear parking space.
"..." Hong Ye was speechless, what to say to the foodie, "Give me a bowl too, the snake meat tastes good."
"Okay, I'll be at your side in about ten minutes, come out and get it."
Qin Shen drove to the medical clinic on the way, put down his things and was about to leave, Hong Ye threw a few sachets on the car, and said to them: "Keep away snakes, insects, rats and ants, bring them with you."
"Understood." Qin Shen grabbed the sachet and waved his hand, drove away to attend the family banquet.
The sachet given by Hong Ye looks the same as the commercially available sachets. It tastes light, like mint, refreshing and refreshing.
"A total of eight, for the old man and the old lady, for parents, for Diu Diu, for you, and if there are more, we will put them in the inn."
The time assigned by Qin Shen has already arrived at the woodware shop. He parked the car in the alley next to it, and after getting off the car, the two walked to the house next to the woodware shop.
Mr. Zhang bought the house next to the woodware shop, and lived next to Qin Shen's adoptive parents. Usually, the old couple would walk around the town, chat with the old people in the town, join the chess club, sing opera, etc. Wait, live a more comfortable and happy life than when I was in the capital.Every day is fulfilling, and even Zhao Minhui, who has been serious and serious all his life, has more smiles on his face. It can be seen that Hongye Town is really a place for Zhong Lingyuxiu to support her.
The house next to the woodware shop has been around for a certain period of time, and its general layout is similar to that of the woodware shop, except that this family did not change the house facing the street into a pavement.
Because the children are all abroad, the original owner sold the house and followed the children to settle abroad.
So the house is absolutely clean.
"Father, Daddy." Knowing that the two fathers were coming, Diudiu waited at the door early, accompanied by Grandpa Zhong, the "book boy" who had been with Zhang Yuanhuai for decades.
As I said before, Zhang Yuanhuai's family has a scholarly family for generations. In the past, it was also a big family with servants and book boys. This Grandpa Zhong's family has lived in Zhang's family for generations. His wife is deceased and he has no children, so he has been following Zhang Yuanhuai.
The stooped, white-haired old man laughed at Yan Yan, and when he saw Qin Shen and Zhang Tenghai coming over, he smiled more kindly, "The two gentlemen are waiting for you to come, the food is ready, and it's all you like .”
"Grandpa Zhong bothered you to wait outside with Diudiu." Seeing how the old man staggered, Qin Shen felt really sorry.
"I just stood there for a while, I didn't wait long, I'm happy to be with Diudiu." Grandpa Zhong sent them to the door with a smile, and went to the small house next to him to have dinner with the nanny and the others.
The Zhang family is not happy with this, everyone is equal, but Grandpa Zhong insisted on doing so, so he went with them. Today's Zhang family's family banquet, only the Zhang family sat in the living room.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhang, Mr. and Mrs. Qin Shen and Diudiu.
The food on the table was very rich, and there was no need to add other dishes. Qin Shen put aside the snake meat he brought. These dishes were not fully cooked by Rand, but only semi-finished products with simple seasoning. Just process it when you eat it.
"I really miss that taste." Knowing that what Qin Shen and the others brought was snake meat, Zhang Yuanhuai was very interested, and recalled the past, "The main job I do when I can't fight is to escort wounded soldiers, escort women and children, etc. One year, after sending the sick and wounded to the rear, we were ambushed on our return journey, and could only hide in the deep mountains and old forests. In those days, human life was worthless, and a life was worth less than a pig's trotter, and someone sold it for a few pieces of meat... ...Hey, eat well, let’s not talk about this kind of thing.”
"Grandpa, did you hide on the mountain for a long time?" Sitting between the two elders, Diudiu was obviously attracted by the story told by Mr. Zhang, and asked what happened next.
Zhang Yuanhuai touched Diudiu's hair and said: "Someone is looking for us outside, we can only hide in a deeper place, there is a shortage of rice and clean water in inaccessible places, fortunately there is a Orion born in our group, we know What can be eaten and what can’t be eaten on the mountain, do you know what we eat most on the mountain?”
Diudiu took it for granted that it was a snake.
Zhang Yuanhuai shook his head with a broken smile, "It's good to have a snake, and catching one is a big meal. What we eat most are all kinds of bugs, and we even catch mice to eat."
Diu Diu grinned disgustedly, "Is there nothing else on the mountain?"
"Yes, but they all hid in deeper mountains."
The world is full of wars, the people are in dire straits, and the land of China, which has a long history and experienced countless vicissitudes, has once again suffered catastrophe.Human luck influences each other, and the harvest response is not very good when there are many casualties. The vast forests will also become barren. The beasts are the most alert, and they hide in the deeper forests early, and there are very few things that can feed people.
"Life is better now, I can't imagine how miserable and difficult those years were." There are many things that Zhang Yuanhuai didn't say, and he didn't want to learn about them as soon as possible, such as starving and dying, such as selling children and daughters, such as changing children to eat, etc. wait.
"So you can only eat bugs?"
"There are also mice." This is what Zhao Min would say. She is younger than Zhang Yuanhuai, but she has also come through the difficult years.
"Can mice be eaten too?" It's really hard to understand after a ball like Diu Diu.
"Of course, it's a pity that it's too thin and doesn't have much meat."
Looking back, the past years have become sporadic fragments of memory, only some of the deep memories remain dynamic, recalling, hot, sour, bitter, salty, sweet, mixed flavors.If Diu Diu didn't listen to them, these experiences and the past will disappear with their age and death, and the people and things in memory will disappear with them.
The family banquet passed slowly in the memories of the two elders. Diudiu was very interested in hearing it. He felt that the grandparents were like an encyclopedia, and there were many things he didn't know.
Waving hands with the old man, Diu Diu leaned out of the car window and said, "Grandfather and grandma, go back and have a good rest. We are going home. I will come to see you on Monday."
"Okay, tell your dad to drive slowly on the road, and call us when you get home."
"I know, grandpa."
Diu Diu sat back and put on his seat belt. Zhang Tenghai in the front seat said to the two old people: "Don't leave the sachet for you, and Grandpa Zhong's is the same. There are a lot of snakes in the town recently, so be careful at home."
"You guys pay more attention too."
Zhang Yuanhuai and his wife watched the car drive away, and they didn't bring them into the house until they couldn't see it at all.
If someone is afraid of a reunion, it is because they are afraid of the silence that follows the excitement.
When the two returned to the living room, the table had been cleaned up, and there seemed to be children's laughter in their ears, and it was deserted in a blink of an eye.
Fortunately, there are each other.
……
Before, Qin Shen gave the sachets to Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong, and went to the woodware shop again to give them to her parents. When she returned, she saw a snake slithering through the street, submerged in the darkness.
Immediately, goosebumps arose all over my body, wondering how many of these long, slippery creatures were hidden in the whole town, and the results I made up were creepy.
Can't think, can't think, when I think about the way home, I always feel that there are countless eyes staring at them in the dark, maybe they have already assembled, and a big pit has been dug on the road ahead, waiting for them like a cave of ten thousand snakes...
It was obvious that Qin Shen was overcompensated, and he was safe and sound until he returned to the inn. There were no shadows in the snake's den, or any ambushes.
Diudiu played crazy with Longlong during the day, and fell asleep on the road when he was so tired. It was Zhang Tenghai who carried the child out of the car, covered the child with his clothes, and carried him all the way back to the room.
"Don't wake the child up, let him sleep." Zhang Tenghai carefully undressed the child. During the period, Diu Diu groaned as if he was about to wake up. He patted the child's back lightly twice, and said heavily again. fell asleep.
"You just get used to him." Qin Shen said so in his mouth, but he was very cooperative with Zhang Tenghai in action, pulling the quilt on the child and letting him sleep soundly.
Little Qilin stood up with his front legs lying on the edge of the bed, tilted his head to look at Diudiu, stuck out his tongue and said in doubt, "Haha?" Why are you sleeping and not playing with him?
Qin Shen stretched out his fingers and tapped the little unicorn's head, "You are quite noisy today, go to bed early, and play together tomorrow."
The results of Diudiu's many teachings are still somewhat effective. At least the little unicorn no longer pees indoors, but he still hasn't learned to go to the toilet, but lifts his legs to pour water into the Qing River...
Qin Shen saw this scene, "..."
This is the upper reaches of the Qing River, the mother river of the entire Dongzhou City.
Although this is Qilin boy peeing, Qin Shen still wanted to stop him when he saw it, so he reasoned with the little Qilin.And the little Qilin thought that Qin Shen was playing with him, so he completely entangled Qin Shen, followed him around, and became a stumbling dog. Qin Shen managed to avoid falling off the horse.
For this reason, the little unicorn was also very tired.
Now Qin Shen tapped his forehead twice, he yawned, and jumped on Diu Diu's bed, he was going to sleep.
"Meow!" The elusive white tiger god jumped out, and pressed his paw in front of the little unicorn. Amber narrowed his eyes at him, and the threat was beyond words.
"Woooo..." the little unicorn called out aggrievedly.
"Mine." The White Tiger Divine Lord pressed his paw on the bed twice, and repeated, "Mine, you stupid dog is not allowed to snatch it!"
The little unicorn looked at him hurtfully with big black and white eyes, its paws resting on the edge of the bed fell to the ground, the whole unicorn shrank into a ball, and let out a pitiful cry from its throat.
"Hmph." Baihu Shenjun did not waver at all, he trotted to lie down next to Diudiu, rubbed his little head through the quilt, narrowed his eyes happily, and said softly with a cute voice: " Meow, Diudiu is mine, I won’t give it to anyone. Meow!”
The little milk cat who ran up screamed sharply, but it was quite short, and was quickly pressed back by himself with two tender paws. He silently complained to Qin Shen who hugged him away from Diudiu, and with his eyes Tell Qin Shen that he is a tyrant! !
Qin Shen put the little milk cat in the soft cat litter on the sofa. The cat litter thousands of dollars in size is made of better material than the bed that people sleep in, but after buying it, it is basically left unused and dusty. A certain cat is not rare.
"Why?" The little milk cat put its paw on the edge of the cat's nest and asked aggressively.If the voice is not so cute, it will be more majestic.
"It was agreed that you are not allowed to climb on the bed, and you still don't listen." Qin Shen pushed the little milk cat's forehead once, and the cat rolled into the depths of the cat's nest, and he continued: "Sleep in the cat's nest tonight. "
"Hmph." Buried in the cat's nest, the little milk cat gave Qin Shen a round back... The ass is so cute.
"Hmm~" The upturned voice sounded like a smile.
The little milk cat grinds its teeth, and when Qin Shen and the others leave, it jumps up from the cat's nest, lands on Diudiu's bed, walks to Diudiu's side with brisk steps, and nests over there. It's time to sleep!
…………
"Have you heard that the child of Lao Liu's family was bitten by a snake, it seems to be a five-step snake."
"Ah! There is such a thing. How is the child, has it been saved?"
"Fortunately, the adults found it in time and sent it directly to the city. There was also an ambulance on the road to meet it. They brought that, what, and clear."
The child who was led by grandma added loudly, "Grandma, it's anti-venom serum."
"That's right, that's what my grandson said, the anti-venom serum. It seems that the child will be saved after beating him, but he is still in the hospital. He must be hurt and he will have to take care of him for a long time."
"Heavenly King bless, life is good." The woman who answered the phone folded her hands and bowed to the void, "I really don't understand why there are so many snakes in the town all of a sudden, I saw snake tails in my kitchen the day before yesterday , I was shocked on the spot. I called my man over, turned the kitchen upside down, and found nothing."
"I guess he ran away." The grandma who took her grandson to school said, "Go to the medical clinic on the old street and ask for a sachet. It will be fine to wear it on the child. I will ask for one for my grandson."
"Yeah, I'll go after dropping off the kids."
"Grandma, snakes, so many snakes!" The little grandson who was led by grandma suddenly pointed in front of him and shouted.
"What are you talking about? There are no snakes on the main road." Grandma scolded, and when she looked in the direction her grandson pointed, she nearly rolled her eyes and fainted from fright, and murmured tremblingly, "Mom, my mother!" , a lot of snakes."
Countless snakes crawled out from the corners of the eaves, from the waste bins, from the tree branches of the flower beds, etc., red and black rings with repeating, black with "King" stripes, emerald green, with rattles on their tails Yes... Snakes of different species swarmed out from every corner, which made everyone suddenly realize that the entire Hongye Town had become a snake den.
After crawling out, all the snakes bypassed the crowd and headed in one direction, as if the snakes were called to hold a meeting.
Today, Monday, is the peak time for sending children to school. The road in front of the school is full of students wearing school uniforms preparing to participate in the flag-raising ceremony and parents sending their children. Electric cars, bicycles, cars... two-legged, two-wheeled, four-legged All the wheels are in battle, and the road is crowded.
At this time, a person noticed that the vision made a sound, and soon, almost everyone saw it, everyone trembled, and the parents quickly picked up the child and hugged it in their arms, even if the snake attacked, they would use their bodies to kill block.
The people whose feet trembled after being frightened slowly, wanted to run away, and a riot was about to happen.
I don’t know who shouted with a loudspeaker, “Don’t be afraid, everyone, this is the mountain god protecting us. He is driving away the snake. The snake will definitely not attack everyone. Anyone who wants to run will attract the snake’s attention. The mountain god protects Hongye , the Lord Mountain God protects Hongye, and we are the ones protected by the Mountain God."
According to the reputation, it was an alley next to the school. The owner opened a shop selling red leaf stew at the entrance of the alley. Qin Shen even brought Zhang Tonghai over to eat.This person was not arranged in advance, the arranged person put away his loudspeaker aggrievedly, and he was about to promote popular science knowledge.
The owner of the shop sells red leaf stew, and he is still a loyal fan of the mountain god. He has always believed that the myths circulating in the town are true. The mountain god lives on the mountain and looks at Hongye Town and protects Hongye Town. When he sees the phenomenon, he naturally associates it with mountain god.
When something unexplainable by science happens, the theory of gods and monsters jumps up and quickly occupies the market, not to mention the people of Hongye Town who have heard the legend since childhood.
Believe it or not, seeing that the group of snakes left without attacking one person, I was more or less circling in my heart, the mountain god blessed Hongye.
And sometimes the most unlikely guess is often the most correct. It was really Hong Ye's thunderous means to keep the peace, and he even ordered the left-behind personnel of the National Security Department to help.
There are too many snakes, which have seriously affected the peace of Hongye Town.
A big pit was dug outside the town. Hong Ye, who was wearing a black cloak and buried his face in the hood, stood by the pit and muttered something. Burning, with thick white eyes.
A gust of wind blew into the bottom of the pit, carrying the smoke into the town.
Xixisuo, Xixisuo... Countless crawling sounds gathered together, making one's hair stand on end.
Qiu Xingxing hid behind Yang Feng in fear, but couldn't hold back his curiosity to look at the big pit. His eyes fell on the man beside the pit. This man was the mountain god. The black hood blocked all sight. People can't see his appearance clearly, it turns out that the fairy tale really exists.
But when she thought about it, her father was in the magical inn, and the place where she worked was dealing with mysterious events. Why must myths be legends.
Her free thoughts were quickly gathered, and she covered her mouth tightly to keep her scream from coming out.
terrible!
Countless snakes poured into the big pit like a stream of water, one after another, some as small as chopsticks, some as thick as a bucket, more complete than watching "Animal World" snake special lecture.Looking into the pit again, she saw Qiu Xingxing suddenly closed her eyes and turned her back. She understood what it meant.
The surge of snakes lasted for half an hour. Just in case, Hong Ye waited for another 10 minutes to ensure that there was no snake in the town before calling it a day.
"These snakes are just ordinary snakes, and they are at your disposal."
Yang Feng arched his hands and bowed, "Thank you, Lord Shanshen, for helping me, I know what to do."
Hong Ye waved his hand, and his figure disappeared from everyone's eyes in an instant, unfathomable.
"Boss, what should we do with these snakes?" Qiu Xingxing, who mustered up his courage and turned around, asked Yang Feng.
Lu Feiran in the same group said, "Snakes like this can be wiped out in no time at restaurants and vegetable markets."
"..."
Receiving the boss's gaze, Lu Feiran raised his hand as a gesture of surrender, "Okay, okay, Forestry Bureau, Forestry Bureau."
"Send it to the vegetable market."
"..."
"You are still too thin, you need to eat more to gain weight."
"Yeah." Diu Diu nodded vigorously, looked at Longlong's stocky figure and said enviously, "I wish I was like you, I'm too thin, and my father said that a stronger wind would blow me away."
Longlong looked at the little Baiyang with green onions and was also very envious, and said dejectedly: "My father said that no matter how fat I am, he will not want me anymore, and that I will still be of this size when I grow up..." Longlong touched his Stomach whimpering, "It's obesity."
The two little guys looked at each other, and saw envy and depression in each other's eyes.
"It would be great if it could be neutralized."
"No."
"Hey!" The two little guys slumped their shoulders, just like Longlong's math and Diudiu's sports. The head teacher, Mr. Wu, always said that it would be more perfect if the two children's math and sports could neutralize each other. up.
It is impossible to be perfect in everything, and there will be pursuits only if there are shortcomings in life.
Carrying the basket, Diudiu and Longlong set off from the medical hall to the woodware shop.
Because of Chang'e's flight to the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival last year and the vicious murders during the Chinese New Year, Hongye Town has gained a nationwide reputation, both good and bad, but in short it is a fire.After the fire, Hongye Town attracted many young people to travel, and the town's primary school and Zhu Yao's house became must-see attractions, which made people laugh and cry.
The appearance of many new faces in the town has already made everyone feel surprised, and brought a lot of business. The residents are quite happy, but there are many disputes when there are too many people. This old street tofu shop owner is cursing at the door of her shop. .
"...Which wicked and smoking bastard, ran over in a gust of madness, and brought the tofu box to the ground without saying sorry, how did my parents teach me?"
The proprietress picked up the dried tea scattered on the ground and dusted off the dust. It was a pity that such a good tea was dried, and the dust on the ground could not be sold and could only be eaten by herself.
"Sister, sell these cadres to me."
The proprietress looked up, and saw a tall and thin young man standing next to her, with a hairstyle similar to the star poster her daughter had posted in the room, with a little stubble on his chin, and a pair of brown eyes with a bit of melancholy, The vicissitudes of life look like a performance artist. At first glance, I thought it was the star himself.
I haven't seen it, I guess it's a tourist in the town.
"Young lady will not sell these things if they are stained with dust. You can look at other things."
"It's okay, just wash it off." The young man smiled with the corners of his lips curled up. "My cat likes this one. If I don't eat it today, I will lose my temper."
Only then did the proprietress notice that the man was holding a snow-white cat in his arms, with a pair of amber colored glazed eyes that were indescribably beautiful, "Oh, that's fine, I'll weigh it for you, it looks like a catty for so many , how much do you want?"
The man who licked the cat said, "Give it all to me."
After giving the dry tea to the man, the proprietress took the money and touched the white cat twice, "This cat is really beautiful. It must be imported from a foreign country. It must be very expensive."
The man turned sideways unobtrusively, "It's just an ordinary native cat. It's no worse than those expensive cats that cost thousands of dollars. Are you saying it's for nothing?"
The man's hand scratched the white cat's chin twice, and the proprietress was very moved when she saw the man's gentle and patient appearance, but it's a pity that he is a foreigner who doesn't know the details, otherwise it would be good to introduce her to her daughter.
The proprietress looked at his receding back with regret, and suddenly shivered violently. Suddenly, there was no warmth in the streets and alleys with people coming and going. The cat was dead...
"Grandma, let's buy tofu."
The child's clear voice drew the proprietress's attention back, and she broke out in a cold sweat for a short moment. The smiles on the faces of Diudiu and Longlong who came to buy tofu were a little stiff.
"Diudiu and Longlong, what kind of tofu do you want? Grandma will get it for you." The proprietress moved her stiff body twice, and slowly regained her warmth standing in the sun.
"I want soft tofu and firm tofu." Diudiu pointed to the two kinds of tofu on the container.
Old Street Tofu Shop sells all the tofu freshly made and sold. It seems that there are not many of them, and the business seems to be sparse, but it is actually fresh. Many foreigners come here to eat tofu nao, which is absolutely satisfying.
"Dudiu, and some more dried tea." Longlong looked at the basket and was a little greedy, and the dried tea here can be eaten as a snack.
"Longlong, grandma's dried tea is sold out today."
Longlong pointed forward, "Isn't that one?"
The proprietress looked in the direction Longlong was pointing at, her face turned pale instantly, she had obviously sold it to that young man before...
"Dudiu, just now the grandma in the tofu shop looked so ugly, she didn't sell me the dried tea when she had it, it's disgusting." Longlong complained while holding the basket.
Diu Diu Shun Mao, "It's okay, maybe it's because you suddenly feel uncomfortable, so your tone is heavy. Didn't that grandma say that the tea was dried up on the ground, it's not clean, and she won't sell it."
"Okay." Longlong pouted, "But I want to eat."
Diu Diu patted the little bag on the side of his clothes and said, "Let's go, let's go to the deli to buy food, five-spice dried tofu and tea eggs."
"Great, Diudiu is the best." Longlong took Diudiu's hand and shook it happily several times.
The two little guys who were given the mission of shopping by adults happily went to the deli hand in hand.
Today, Saturday, is the day when the old man of the Qin family invited Qin Shen and Zhang Tonghai to dinner. For the family banquet in the evening, the old man asked the nanny to make preparations, and picked up Diudi in the morning.
If it wasn't for Qin Shen's polite refusal, the old man wished they could spend Saturdays in the town.
In the woodware store, Qin Jing calculated the income of the woodware store this month, and she felt pretty good. The restaurant that ordered wooden barrels in the store before ordered more than 100. The store has been busy with this matter recently. The couple lived in In the town, I didn't go back to the inn very much.
Qin Jing put down her pen and clicked on the account book. She thought it would be better to stay in the woodware shop in the future, and go to the inn when she had nothing to do on weekends.
Seeing Zhang Tenghai's obsessive love for his son, Qin Jing wanted to rub his arms.It is better for parents and children to keep some distance and give them independent space.
"Grandma, we're going to the next door. Grandpa told you and grandpa to have lunch." Diudiu's voice came from outside the shop.
Qin Jing poked her head out and said, "Got it, you guys go, we'll come over at noon."
……
At 04:30 in the afternoon, Qin Shen saw that the sun was getting late, so he could get ready first and go to the town at 06:30.
"Hey, such a big snake!" Standing behind the bar, Qin Shen looked up after watching the time, and was startled by the big snake in Rand's hand.
"It was caught outside, a water snake weighing more than ten kilograms." The big water snake was wrapped around Rand's arm, and he pinched the snake's head. No amount of struggle was futile.
This kind of snake often appears in fields, mountains and rivers. It is not poisonous, and it is bred and sold as a vegetable snake. But it is the first time Qin Shen has seen such a big one. The thickest part is thicker than Rand's arm. To say the least, it weighs more than ten kilograms, and the sum of the head and the tail is as tall as someone.
"Why is it a snake again!" The day before yesterday, he also saw a long brown snake that was suspected to be a rattlesnake swimming in the direction of the mountain, because it was dark at that time, and he couldn't see clearly.Thinking about it afterwards, he probably made a mistake. There are no poisonous snakes in Hongye Town, let alone rattlesnakes.
"I went out and looked around and saw several. I will prepare some snake repellent medicine and release them tomorrow. Be careful when you walk outside. I saw poisonous snakes."
Qin Shen frowned, "Could it be that there are poisonous snakes in Baidang Mountain? I've lived here for more than 20 years, and I really don't know anything about it. I've seen so many snakes in the first year of my life. I'll make a phone call and ask Hong Ye."
Seeing that Rand wanted to take the water snake to the kitchen, it was probably an extra meal at night.
"Wait, give me this snake, and I'll take it to the old man."
Liu Niang, who was not eating melon seeds and was sewing, asked without raising her head, "Master Zhang likes this?"
"I talked with the old man. He said that when he was young, he had no food to eat in wars, so he caught mice and snakes as meat dishes. He said that he still misses them." Bringing the snake over is like bringing a dish to add to the meal. .
Liu Niang approached the clothes and broke the thread with her teeth, and said, "This snake is big enough. If you kill the boss at the inn, you can take half of it. Come, stretch out your hand."
Rand, who was holding the snake, opened his arms and let Liuniang play with it. Although there was not much expression on his face, Qin Shen saw his eyes softly.
Rubbing her forehead and covering her eyes, Liu Niang didn't love him as the boss anymore, and all turned towards Rand! "All right, all right, just give me half."
"Do you want to cook it well?" Rand stayed in the deep mountains and old forests for several years to get revenge. His cooking skills are as good as his ability to survive in the wild, and he is even better at making snakes.
The body of the snake caught by him was stiff, probably because he felt a strong murderous aura and knew that he was not far from death.
"what?"
"What's the problem?" Rand asked Liu Niang.
Liu Niang shook her head, "Probably got the spirit energy from somewhere, this snake is just an ordinary snake, I thought it was enlightened."
"You can do it without enlightenment, kill and eat meat, and let it hang around outside the inn to scare people!" Qin Shen waved his hand and said, "Rand wants you to do it, and I will bring the ready-made one over there."
For a snake weighing more than ten catties, Rand picked the best and most tender parts and put them in a casserole, stewed them with wolfberry and angelica, made salt and pepper snake bones, snake skin, stewed snake soup, and made a red stew with chicken nuggets , and finally put the shaved snake meat and sliced snake skin into a fresh-keeping box for Qin Shen to take with him, so that the old man can make water snake porridge.
Looking at the ridges and ridges on the snake skin, Qin Shen grinned in disgust. He is not afraid of snakes but he doesn't like to eat snakes. He always feels that the taste is weird, even if it looks delicious, he doesn't really want to try it.
"The old man will be happy when he sees it." Qin Shen was talking while driving the car, looking at Zhang Tenghai who was sitting in the passenger seat. Know what you're doing.
Soon Qin Shen knew, because Zhang Tenghai said: "I got to know the staff of the town government. Recently, there have been a lot of snakes in Hongye Town, not only near the inn, but also in the town. The police have received several reports. I reported to the police that a snake had entered the house, and when people arrived to catch the snake, the snake had disappeared.”
"Why do so many snakes appear for no reason?" Qin Shen muttered.
"The police said that someone was releasing animals nearby, but..." Some of the words were intended to reassure people so as not to cause commotion. "Be vigilant when you go out recently, and tell Diu Diu that you may not go to a place with dense grass."
"Yeah, I wanted to ask Hong Ye earlier, turn on my phone..." Qin Shen gave Zhang Tenghai the phone and asked him to help contact Hong Ye.
Hongye Town is in the depression of Baidang Mountain, near the mountain, there are naturally many snakes, insects, rats and ants, but there are Qinglong Shenjun and mountain gods in the town, and the animals on the mountain will not rush down the mountain, which may disturb the cleanliness of adults, so these snakes must It's a foreign snake and doesn't know the rules of the town.
"Don't you guys release any kind of coercion?" The local creatures know how to avoid taboos, but the outsiders don't know that, with full aura of domineering, they can drive away all Xiaoxiao.
"Who said there was such a thing?" Hong Ye, who was eating a tomato, looked at Qin Shen with both laughter and laughter.
"..." Qin Shen was embarrassed, he made it up by himself.
They were videotaping, and Qin Shen wanted to ask Hong Ye about the inexplicably many snakes in the town.
Hong Ye said: "We usually cover up our breath, otherwise it would be a bright light in the dark. Everyone knows that Qinglong Shenjun lives here in seclusion, so it's so boring."
"Ok."
"A lot of snakes came to the town suddenly, I have already noticed." Hong Ye changed the subject and said with a serious face: "But this time it is very strange. These snakes are not spiritual creatures, no spiritual consciousness, but ordinary snakes. I patrol I looked around and found no strangers."
The stranger in Hong Ye's mouth refers to a cultivator.
"There are two possibilities. His strength is very strong, higher than ours. Or, this person restrained his breath and deceived me and Meng Zhang."
In the age of the end of the Dharma, the monks in this world are withered. The most powerful people in this world are the gods who protect the world. The strength is higher than them, unless the gods and demons from other worlds come here, but these ruthless characters want to come to the mortal world He must also obediently go through the formalities at the Wangxiang Inn, no matter how ruthless he is, he cannot be ruthless than the Emperor of Heaven.
Therefore, the answer was ready to come out, and the person who attracted countless snakes had some secret method to restrain his breath, which was undetectable to Qinglong Shenjun and Hong Ye.
"Recently, you should pay more attention. Coming to Hongye Town is nothing more than one thing..."
Qin Shen understood Hong Ye's unfinished words, for the sake of Wangxiang Inn. "Maybe it's someone from the Ghost Eye Sect seeking revenge, I'll pay attention."
"Well, we will always keep an eye out, and if we find any clues, we will kill them immediately." Hong Ye's face remained unchanged, and his tone remained the same, but the chilling intent could not be ignored.
Someone has made trouble in Hongye Town several times, which has seriously affected the tranquility of the town and the safety of the people. The mountain god is protecting one side, and it is time for him to take action.
It was the first time Qin Shen saw him like this, and he had a better understanding of the power of the mountain god.
Something flashed through Qin Shen's mind, and he grasped it, "We caught a snake today, and Liu Niang said that he felt spiritual energy on it."
"Where is it, show it to me."
Zhang Tenghai held his mobile phone, and the camera silently aimed at several insulation boxes in the rear parking space.
"..." Hong Ye was speechless, what to say to the foodie, "Give me a bowl too, the snake meat tastes good."
"Okay, I'll be at your side in about ten minutes, come out and get it."
Qin Shen drove to the medical clinic on the way, put down his things and was about to leave, Hong Ye threw a few sachets on the car, and said to them: "Keep away snakes, insects, rats and ants, bring them with you."
"Understood." Qin Shen grabbed the sachet and waved his hand, drove away to attend the family banquet.
The sachet given by Hong Ye looks the same as the commercially available sachets. It tastes light, like mint, refreshing and refreshing.
"A total of eight, for the old man and the old lady, for parents, for Diu Diu, for you, and if there are more, we will put them in the inn."
The time assigned by Qin Shen has already arrived at the woodware shop. He parked the car in the alley next to it, and after getting off the car, the two walked to the house next to the woodware shop.
Mr. Zhang bought the house next to the woodware shop, and lived next to Qin Shen's adoptive parents. Usually, the old couple would walk around the town, chat with the old people in the town, join the chess club, sing opera, etc. Wait, live a more comfortable and happy life than when I was in the capital.Every day is fulfilling, and even Zhao Minhui, who has been serious and serious all his life, has more smiles on his face. It can be seen that Hongye Town is really a place for Zhong Lingyuxiu to support her.
The house next to the woodware shop has been around for a certain period of time, and its general layout is similar to that of the woodware shop, except that this family did not change the house facing the street into a pavement.
Because the children are all abroad, the original owner sold the house and followed the children to settle abroad.
So the house is absolutely clean.
"Father, Daddy." Knowing that the two fathers were coming, Diudiu waited at the door early, accompanied by Grandpa Zhong, the "book boy" who had been with Zhang Yuanhuai for decades.
As I said before, Zhang Yuanhuai's family has a scholarly family for generations. In the past, it was also a big family with servants and book boys. This Grandpa Zhong's family has lived in Zhang's family for generations. His wife is deceased and he has no children, so he has been following Zhang Yuanhuai.
The stooped, white-haired old man laughed at Yan Yan, and when he saw Qin Shen and Zhang Tenghai coming over, he smiled more kindly, "The two gentlemen are waiting for you to come, the food is ready, and it's all you like .”
"Grandpa Zhong bothered you to wait outside with Diudiu." Seeing how the old man staggered, Qin Shen felt really sorry.
"I just stood there for a while, I didn't wait long, I'm happy to be with Diudiu." Grandpa Zhong sent them to the door with a smile, and went to the small house next to him to have dinner with the nanny and the others.
The Zhang family is not happy with this, everyone is equal, but Grandpa Zhong insisted on doing so, so he went with them. Today's Zhang family's family banquet, only the Zhang family sat in the living room.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhang, Mr. and Mrs. Qin Shen and Diudiu.
The food on the table was very rich, and there was no need to add other dishes. Qin Shen put aside the snake meat he brought. These dishes were not fully cooked by Rand, but only semi-finished products with simple seasoning. Just process it when you eat it.
"I really miss that taste." Knowing that what Qin Shen and the others brought was snake meat, Zhang Yuanhuai was very interested, and recalled the past, "The main job I do when I can't fight is to escort wounded soldiers, escort women and children, etc. One year, after sending the sick and wounded to the rear, we were ambushed on our return journey, and could only hide in the deep mountains and old forests. In those days, human life was worthless, and a life was worth less than a pig's trotter, and someone sold it for a few pieces of meat... ...Hey, eat well, let’s not talk about this kind of thing.”
"Grandpa, did you hide on the mountain for a long time?" Sitting between the two elders, Diudiu was obviously attracted by the story told by Mr. Zhang, and asked what happened next.
Zhang Yuanhuai touched Diudiu's hair and said: "Someone is looking for us outside, we can only hide in a deeper place, there is a shortage of rice and clean water in inaccessible places, fortunately there is a Orion born in our group, we know What can be eaten and what can’t be eaten on the mountain, do you know what we eat most on the mountain?”
Diudiu took it for granted that it was a snake.
Zhang Yuanhuai shook his head with a broken smile, "It's good to have a snake, and catching one is a big meal. What we eat most are all kinds of bugs, and we even catch mice to eat."
Diu Diu grinned disgustedly, "Is there nothing else on the mountain?"
"Yes, but they all hid in deeper mountains."
The world is full of wars, the people are in dire straits, and the land of China, which has a long history and experienced countless vicissitudes, has once again suffered catastrophe.Human luck influences each other, and the harvest response is not very good when there are many casualties. The vast forests will also become barren. The beasts are the most alert, and they hide in the deeper forests early, and there are very few things that can feed people.
"Life is better now, I can't imagine how miserable and difficult those years were." There are many things that Zhang Yuanhuai didn't say, and he didn't want to learn about them as soon as possible, such as starving and dying, such as selling children and daughters, such as changing children to eat, etc. wait.
"So you can only eat bugs?"
"There are also mice." This is what Zhao Min would say. She is younger than Zhang Yuanhuai, but she has also come through the difficult years.
"Can mice be eaten too?" It's really hard to understand after a ball like Diu Diu.
"Of course, it's a pity that it's too thin and doesn't have much meat."
Looking back, the past years have become sporadic fragments of memory, only some of the deep memories remain dynamic, recalling, hot, sour, bitter, salty, sweet, mixed flavors.If Diu Diu didn't listen to them, these experiences and the past will disappear with their age and death, and the people and things in memory will disappear with them.
The family banquet passed slowly in the memories of the two elders. Diudiu was very interested in hearing it. He felt that the grandparents were like an encyclopedia, and there were many things he didn't know.
Waving hands with the old man, Diu Diu leaned out of the car window and said, "Grandfather and grandma, go back and have a good rest. We are going home. I will come to see you on Monday."
"Okay, tell your dad to drive slowly on the road, and call us when you get home."
"I know, grandpa."
Diu Diu sat back and put on his seat belt. Zhang Tenghai in the front seat said to the two old people: "Don't leave the sachet for you, and Grandpa Zhong's is the same. There are a lot of snakes in the town recently, so be careful at home."
"You guys pay more attention too."
Zhang Yuanhuai and his wife watched the car drive away, and they didn't bring them into the house until they couldn't see it at all.
If someone is afraid of a reunion, it is because they are afraid of the silence that follows the excitement.
When the two returned to the living room, the table had been cleaned up, and there seemed to be children's laughter in their ears, and it was deserted in a blink of an eye.
Fortunately, there are each other.
……
Before, Qin Shen gave the sachets to Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong, and went to the woodware shop again to give them to her parents. When she returned, she saw a snake slithering through the street, submerged in the darkness.
Immediately, goosebumps arose all over my body, wondering how many of these long, slippery creatures were hidden in the whole town, and the results I made up were creepy.
Can't think, can't think, when I think about the way home, I always feel that there are countless eyes staring at them in the dark, maybe they have already assembled, and a big pit has been dug on the road ahead, waiting for them like a cave of ten thousand snakes...
It was obvious that Qin Shen was overcompensated, and he was safe and sound until he returned to the inn. There were no shadows in the snake's den, or any ambushes.
Diudiu played crazy with Longlong during the day, and fell asleep on the road when he was so tired. It was Zhang Tenghai who carried the child out of the car, covered the child with his clothes, and carried him all the way back to the room.
"Don't wake the child up, let him sleep." Zhang Tenghai carefully undressed the child. During the period, Diu Diu groaned as if he was about to wake up. He patted the child's back lightly twice, and said heavily again. fell asleep.
"You just get used to him." Qin Shen said so in his mouth, but he was very cooperative with Zhang Tenghai in action, pulling the quilt on the child and letting him sleep soundly.
Little Qilin stood up with his front legs lying on the edge of the bed, tilted his head to look at Diudiu, stuck out his tongue and said in doubt, "Haha?" Why are you sleeping and not playing with him?
Qin Shen stretched out his fingers and tapped the little unicorn's head, "You are quite noisy today, go to bed early, and play together tomorrow."
The results of Diudiu's many teachings are still somewhat effective. At least the little unicorn no longer pees indoors, but he still hasn't learned to go to the toilet, but lifts his legs to pour water into the Qing River...
Qin Shen saw this scene, "..."
This is the upper reaches of the Qing River, the mother river of the entire Dongzhou City.
Although this is Qilin boy peeing, Qin Shen still wanted to stop him when he saw it, so he reasoned with the little Qilin.And the little Qilin thought that Qin Shen was playing with him, so he completely entangled Qin Shen, followed him around, and became a stumbling dog. Qin Shen managed to avoid falling off the horse.
For this reason, the little unicorn was also very tired.
Now Qin Shen tapped his forehead twice, he yawned, and jumped on Diu Diu's bed, he was going to sleep.
"Meow!" The elusive white tiger god jumped out, and pressed his paw in front of the little unicorn. Amber narrowed his eyes at him, and the threat was beyond words.
"Woooo..." the little unicorn called out aggrievedly.
"Mine." The White Tiger Divine Lord pressed his paw on the bed twice, and repeated, "Mine, you stupid dog is not allowed to snatch it!"
The little unicorn looked at him hurtfully with big black and white eyes, its paws resting on the edge of the bed fell to the ground, the whole unicorn shrank into a ball, and let out a pitiful cry from its throat.
"Hmph." Baihu Shenjun did not waver at all, he trotted to lie down next to Diudiu, rubbed his little head through the quilt, narrowed his eyes happily, and said softly with a cute voice: " Meow, Diudiu is mine, I won’t give it to anyone. Meow!”
The little milk cat who ran up screamed sharply, but it was quite short, and was quickly pressed back by himself with two tender paws. He silently complained to Qin Shen who hugged him away from Diudiu, and with his eyes Tell Qin Shen that he is a tyrant! !
Qin Shen put the little milk cat in the soft cat litter on the sofa. The cat litter thousands of dollars in size is made of better material than the bed that people sleep in, but after buying it, it is basically left unused and dusty. A certain cat is not rare.
"Why?" The little milk cat put its paw on the edge of the cat's nest and asked aggressively.If the voice is not so cute, it will be more majestic.
"It was agreed that you are not allowed to climb on the bed, and you still don't listen." Qin Shen pushed the little milk cat's forehead once, and the cat rolled into the depths of the cat's nest, and he continued: "Sleep in the cat's nest tonight. "
"Hmph." Buried in the cat's nest, the little milk cat gave Qin Shen a round back... The ass is so cute.
"Hmm~" The upturned voice sounded like a smile.
The little milk cat grinds its teeth, and when Qin Shen and the others leave, it jumps up from the cat's nest, lands on Diudiu's bed, walks to Diudiu's side with brisk steps, and nests over there. It's time to sleep!
…………
"Have you heard that the child of Lao Liu's family was bitten by a snake, it seems to be a five-step snake."
"Ah! There is such a thing. How is the child, has it been saved?"
"Fortunately, the adults found it in time and sent it directly to the city. There was also an ambulance on the road to meet it. They brought that, what, and clear."
The child who was led by grandma added loudly, "Grandma, it's anti-venom serum."
"That's right, that's what my grandson said, the anti-venom serum. It seems that the child will be saved after beating him, but he is still in the hospital. He must be hurt and he will have to take care of him for a long time."
"Heavenly King bless, life is good." The woman who answered the phone folded her hands and bowed to the void, "I really don't understand why there are so many snakes in the town all of a sudden, I saw snake tails in my kitchen the day before yesterday , I was shocked on the spot. I called my man over, turned the kitchen upside down, and found nothing."
"I guess he ran away." The grandma who took her grandson to school said, "Go to the medical clinic on the old street and ask for a sachet. It will be fine to wear it on the child. I will ask for one for my grandson."
"Yeah, I'll go after dropping off the kids."
"Grandma, snakes, so many snakes!" The little grandson who was led by grandma suddenly pointed in front of him and shouted.
"What are you talking about? There are no snakes on the main road." Grandma scolded, and when she looked in the direction her grandson pointed, she nearly rolled her eyes and fainted from fright, and murmured tremblingly, "Mom, my mother!" , a lot of snakes."
Countless snakes crawled out from the corners of the eaves, from the waste bins, from the tree branches of the flower beds, etc., red and black rings with repeating, black with "King" stripes, emerald green, with rattles on their tails Yes... Snakes of different species swarmed out from every corner, which made everyone suddenly realize that the entire Hongye Town had become a snake den.
After crawling out, all the snakes bypassed the crowd and headed in one direction, as if the snakes were called to hold a meeting.
Today, Monday, is the peak time for sending children to school. The road in front of the school is full of students wearing school uniforms preparing to participate in the flag-raising ceremony and parents sending their children. Electric cars, bicycles, cars... two-legged, two-wheeled, four-legged All the wheels are in battle, and the road is crowded.
At this time, a person noticed that the vision made a sound, and soon, almost everyone saw it, everyone trembled, and the parents quickly picked up the child and hugged it in their arms, even if the snake attacked, they would use their bodies to kill block.
The people whose feet trembled after being frightened slowly, wanted to run away, and a riot was about to happen.
I don’t know who shouted with a loudspeaker, “Don’t be afraid, everyone, this is the mountain god protecting us. He is driving away the snake. The snake will definitely not attack everyone. Anyone who wants to run will attract the snake’s attention. The mountain god protects Hongye , the Lord Mountain God protects Hongye, and we are the ones protected by the Mountain God."
According to the reputation, it was an alley next to the school. The owner opened a shop selling red leaf stew at the entrance of the alley. Qin Shen even brought Zhang Tonghai over to eat.This person was not arranged in advance, the arranged person put away his loudspeaker aggrievedly, and he was about to promote popular science knowledge.
The owner of the shop sells red leaf stew, and he is still a loyal fan of the mountain god. He has always believed that the myths circulating in the town are true. The mountain god lives on the mountain and looks at Hongye Town and protects Hongye Town. When he sees the phenomenon, he naturally associates it with mountain god.
When something unexplainable by science happens, the theory of gods and monsters jumps up and quickly occupies the market, not to mention the people of Hongye Town who have heard the legend since childhood.
Believe it or not, seeing that the group of snakes left without attacking one person, I was more or less circling in my heart, the mountain god blessed Hongye.
And sometimes the most unlikely guess is often the most correct. It was really Hong Ye's thunderous means to keep the peace, and he even ordered the left-behind personnel of the National Security Department to help.
There are too many snakes, which have seriously affected the peace of Hongye Town.
A big pit was dug outside the town. Hong Ye, who was wearing a black cloak and buried his face in the hood, stood by the pit and muttered something. Burning, with thick white eyes.
A gust of wind blew into the bottom of the pit, carrying the smoke into the town.
Xixisuo, Xixisuo... Countless crawling sounds gathered together, making one's hair stand on end.
Qiu Xingxing hid behind Yang Feng in fear, but couldn't hold back his curiosity to look at the big pit. His eyes fell on the man beside the pit. This man was the mountain god. The black hood blocked all sight. People can't see his appearance clearly, it turns out that the fairy tale really exists.
But when she thought about it, her father was in the magical inn, and the place where she worked was dealing with mysterious events. Why must myths be legends.
Her free thoughts were quickly gathered, and she covered her mouth tightly to keep her scream from coming out.
terrible!
Countless snakes poured into the big pit like a stream of water, one after another, some as small as chopsticks, some as thick as a bucket, more complete than watching "Animal World" snake special lecture.Looking into the pit again, she saw Qiu Xingxing suddenly closed her eyes and turned her back. She understood what it meant.
The surge of snakes lasted for half an hour. Just in case, Hong Ye waited for another 10 minutes to ensure that there was no snake in the town before calling it a day.
"These snakes are just ordinary snakes, and they are at your disposal."
Yang Feng arched his hands and bowed, "Thank you, Lord Shanshen, for helping me, I know what to do."
Hong Ye waved his hand, and his figure disappeared from everyone's eyes in an instant, unfathomable.
"Boss, what should we do with these snakes?" Qiu Xingxing, who mustered up his courage and turned around, asked Yang Feng.
Lu Feiran in the same group said, "Snakes like this can be wiped out in no time at restaurants and vegetable markets."
"..."
Receiving the boss's gaze, Lu Feiran raised his hand as a gesture of surrender, "Okay, okay, Forestry Bureau, Forestry Bureau."
"Send it to the vegetable market."
"..."
