When Li Zheng said this, the others felt a little embarrassed, and thanked Jiang Youcheng and Gu Daoxin one after another, but the two kept saying no, they were all from the same village, so everyone should share!

Jiang Youcheng also deliberately took a look at Gu Daoxin, seeing that he was really smiling, he couldn't help feeling even more distressed.What a good child, the eldest and third child of the Zhang family just don't know how to cherish them. If I have such a sensible nephew, not to mention protecting him like my own son, I will definitely be in pain from the bottom of my heart. How can I be willing to bully him?

Other people in the village who don't know how to catch snakes are also very jealous when they hear the news, but they don't have this ability. If they go to catch snakes and die instead, the gain will not be worth the loss.Of course, those who can catch snakes are not willing to bring those who can't, and they will have to pay an extra penny.

Everyone discussed it, and now they will go back to each house to prepare. After a while, they will gather at the foot of the south mountain and go up the mountain together to catch snakes.Although the snow-spotted snakes come out at day and night, and it is not dark yet, it is better to take advantage of the bright hall to explore the road and look for any traces of snow-spotted snakes.

After Gu Daoxin returned home, he told Lu Zhen about the snow-spotted snake, and asked Lu Zhen to take the snow-spotted snake to the town to exchange money with Mr. It is said that this snow-spotted snake is domesticated.

Naturally, Lu Zhen is meaningless. Although he is injured, he still travels relatively fast. Now he is rushing to the town, and he can reach it before dark. If he comes back by moonlight, no one in the village will notice.

only……

Lu Zhen glanced at the snow-spotted snake spitting out the letter in the bamboo basket, then at Gu Daoxin who was tying the snake fork, and asked lightly: "The notice was only posted today, but you snow-spotted snake has been waiting for you for a long time?" You caught it, so you already knew Mrs. Zhao Yuanwai needed the gallbladder of the snow-spotted snake as medicine for her illness?"

Gu Daoxin didn't raise his head, but raised the corners of his mouth, his expression as usual, "I don't have the ability to predict, how could I know in advance? It's just that I was greedy and wanted to get some snake soup, so I went to catch the snow snake. The snake is too thin, so I want to raise it for a while. Fortunately, it is like this, otherwise I would have eaten 100 taels of silver in one meal, and I might have passed without raising it!"

If you want to eat snake soup, what kind of snake can't you catch?Why do you have to choose this nocturnal and extremely poisonous snow snake?Of course, if this was not the case, the other party would not have happened to save him.

Lu Zhen knew that Gu Daoxin was lying, but what could he do, if the other party didn't want to tell the truth, it would be useless to ask him again.Judging from Gu Daoxin's attitude, he knew that if he continued to ask, he would only get more perfunctory perfunctory.This person is sure that he will not talk much.

"If you let me change the silver, you are not afraid that I will run away with the silver?"

Gu Daoxin couldn't help laughing, "I can't do anything else, I have a knack for judging people, you are not that kind of person."

"No matter how accurate a person is, there are times when they can't be sure." Gu Zhen's face was slightly cold, and he unconsciously pressed his hand gently on the wound on his chest.

Gu Daoxin paused for a moment, but only for a moment, and soon resumed.He seemed to understand that there was something in Lu Zhen's words, and his voice was much lower, but he still smiled, "If you can see a person's heart clearly with 100 taels of silver, I think it's a good deal."

Lu Zhen froze, looking at Gu Daoxin with more and more incomprehensible eyes.

Before going out, Lu Zhen just opened the door, Gu Daoxin's gentle voice came from behind, "Be careful, the snow-spotted snake is very fast, when you take it out, put the clip in first, hold it seven inches before you get it out."

Lu Zhen turned his head, looked at Gu Daoxin who was still lowering his head to fiddle with the snake trap, frowned slightly, answered softly, and then went out.

When Lu Zhen came back in the evening, he already had 20 taels of silver in his pocket, and he asked him to take the other silver to the bank and exchange it for bank notes, ten taels a piece.

At this time, there was no one at home, and Lu Zhen knew that Gu Daoxin must be catching snow snakes on the mountain with other villagers.

Gu Daoxin couldn't let other people in the village know that he had caught the snow-spotted snake and asked people to take it to the town for money. In order not to make people suspicious, he naturally had to go up the mountain to catch it.

Lu Zhen looked at the pitch-black night outside, only a few scattered stars, the moon was covered by dark clouds, it was not a good weather for going up the mountain to catch snakes.He suddenly thought, maybe when going out, he should also tell Gu Daoxin to be careful.

Lu Zhen lay on the kang with his hands behind his head, watching the night outside from the window, without closing his eyes almost all night.When the cock crowed, Lu Zhen turned over suddenly, and was about to go out when he heard the creak of the door outside.

Gu Daoxin came back exhausted, his face was not very good-looking, and when he approached Lu Zhen, he could feel the coolness of Gu Daoxin's body.It was windy and dewy at night, and it was on the mountain again, and there was still fog last night. Gu Daoxin was not healed from his injuries, so his face would look frighteningly pale.

Lu Zhen supported Gu Daoxin, who was already a little vain, lying on the bed, took off his coat for him, and covered him with a thin quilt.Turning his head to boil some hot water, he wiped Gu Daoxin's face, neck and arms, and then blew a bowl of water up to the temperature of his mouth, and helped Gu Daoxin to drink it.

After such a toss, Gu Daoxin finally looked a little better.

Gu Daoxin looked at Lu Zhen with a smile, "Xianzhang, I'm sorry to trouble you."

Lu Zhen frowned, "You took care of me like this when I was in a coma before, so there is no need to thank you. The silver has been exchanged, and I exchanged 20 taels of silver, which can be used for daily shopping. The other 80 taels were exchanged for ten taels. Zhang’s banknotes, wrapped and placed at the bottom of the cabinet.”

Gu Daoxin nodded, "I don't worry if you handle the matter."

Lu Zhen hesitated to speak. He originally wanted to ask Gu Daoxin why he trusted him so much. He always felt that it was not just what the other party said that it was a good deal to see a person clearly with 100 taels. This kind of saying is not called trust, but only However, he really felt trust in Gu Daoxin.

They had only been together for a few days, and Lu Zhen discovered that this man was full of mysteries that he couldn't figure out or understand.

Just looking at Gu Dao's weak heart, he couldn't ask any more questions.

"Caught a snowsnake?"

Gu Dao smiled, "Of course, I caught it, and I was almost bitten by that beast."

Lu Zhen frowned, and said while covering Gu Dao's heart, "You don't have to work so hard."

Gu Dao smiled, "How can I not work hard?" I am the one who "needs" the money the most among those who go up the mountain to catch snakes, so of course I have to work hard. When Uncle Jiang takes the snow-spotted snake to the town to exchange money today, After coming back, even if everyone knows that someone has already taken the lead, they will not doubt me who worked hard last night."

"Aren't you tired of being so calculating?"

Gu Dao was stunned for a moment, he had calculated so much for Lu Yihong in his previous life, but the other party had never asked him that.How could he not be tired?Simply exhausted.But he's used to it, and getting tired has become a habit.

After a while, Gu Daoxin immediately laughed again, "What kind of calculation is this? It's just a little bit of caution!"

Lu Zhen looked at Gu Daoxin, and for some reason, he always felt that Gu Daoxin's smile was more real now than before.

Gu Daoxin didn't wake up until noon, and was awakened by the smell of grilled fish.He didn't eat in a hurry last night, Gu Dao thought that Lu Zhen was making up for himself!

The white rice steamed in the pot is the rice that Gu Daoxin bought back yesterday. Lu Zhen has no idea that white rice is a luxury in the countryside, and Gu Daoxin didn’t remind him. Anyway, now that they have the start-up capital to make money, their life will only be Life is getting better and better, but it's just white rice, and you can eat it every meal.

After eating, Gu Daoxin decocted medicine for Lu Zhen, and Gu Daoxin looked at it carefully when he brought the medicine over. Even the medicine that he felt was too bitter to smell, Lu Zhen's expression did not change at all.

Don't let people know your likes and dislikes. Being in the royal family, this is probably a skill acquired by urinating.

Gu Daoxin took out the bag of sugar he bought yesterday, opened it and put it on the table.

Lu Zhen looked at Gu Daoxin, who smiled slightly, "This medicine is too bitter. After drinking it in one sitting, squeeze some candy and eat it. It won't be bitter. I didn't see the notice when I bought the candy yesterday. I just saw it. If I had seen it earlier, I would have spent a little more money to buy you some candy."

Although Lu Zhen didn't know how luxurious white rice was in the countryside, he could imagine how precious white sugar was.

"You don't have to do this, it's just drinking a bowl of medicine, just drink some water to dilute the taste of the medicine."

Gu Daoxin shook his head, "That's not the case. I'm not in good health, and I often drink this kind of bitter soup. The bitterness of herbal medicine is different from other bitterness. It doesn't fade away after a few sips of water. It's better to eat some Sweet works. Besides, it doesn’t cost much, we have money now, 100 taels of silver, it’s just a bag of sugar, and we can’t afford it!”

Gu Daoxin himself didn't realize how natural it was when he said "we are rich now", but Lu Zhen noticed it.

In the end, Lu Zhen didn't say anything. After taking the medicine, he stretched out two fingers and squeezed some white sugar to eat. He closed his eyes, it was very sweet.

Seeing that Lu Zhen ate the sugar, Gu Dao felt happy. He urged Lu Zhen to pinch a little more, then wrapped the sugar, put it back in the original place, and told Lu Zhen to take the sugar after taking the medicine.

When tidying up, Gu Daoxin saw that some white sugar grains were still sticking to Lu Zhen's fingers, and thought about finding a small wooden spoon for Lu Zhen to use next time. It is inconvenient and wasteful to use fingers.

At that time, Gu Daoxin didn't know whether it was a brain twitch or something, but he grabbed Lu Zhen's wrist, put the finger that was still sticking with sugar into his mouth, and even licked it with his tongue. After that, Lu Zhen trembled slightly. In his eyes, he let go of the former's hand as usual, and said calmly: "Don't waste it, you also know that this thing is very expensive."

Even Lu Zhen, who has always been calm, couldn't respond to this meeting.

Gu Daoxin turned to wash the dishes, his steps seemed to be steady, but only he knew how fast his heart was beating at this moment.
