"It is impossible for ordinary people to catch the real snake king! If the snake king is captured, all the snakes within a radius of dozens of kilometers will attack the person who captured the snake king until they die!"
I said, stop bragging and let’s go back. My shoes are all wet.
Seeing that I didn't believe it, she stamped her foot and said anxiously: "Brother Xiang, I'm not bragging! You believe me, everything I say is true!"
"Seventeen years ago, a man named Cheng from Hubei came to Zhanghu to ask my mother to save him! My mother asked him what was wrong, and he said that he had caught a big snake in a snake cage and killed it. As a result, every night he
Snakes can be seen in the house, and later two people in his house were bitten to death. The snake he killed was the snake king!"
"My mother didn't want to take care of it at first, but he kept begging me!"
"Later, my mother asked him to go to the place where the snake king was caught at that time, dig a big pit, and then buy 71 live old hens, cut off the wings of the old hens, tie the feet of the chickens, and throw them into the big pit.
Burn a stick of incense in front of the pit."
"The next day he went to visit and found that all the 70 old hens in the pit had been eaten by snakes, except for one that was intact. My mother asked him to take the remaining hen back and stew it, and then the whole family
We ate together, and after that, no snake appeared in his house."
"But!"
As soon as the conversation changed, she gritted her teeth and said, "But in the summer of 1990, when the aphrodisiac snake wine business was very profitable, he forgot my mother's advice and followed others to catch snakes in the mountains! As a result, the next year
In the summer, he was working in the fields and was bitten to death by more than a hundred snakes!"
"This is not over yet! After he died, snakes would appear around his graveyard at night. My mother told me this personally!"
At that time, I didn't believe what the snake girl said.
Rumors are not groundless, they must be seen by many people before there are rumors.
Later, I also heard from others that this was indeed a true story. The person involved in the incident was named Cheng Diming. It is said that when the villagers went to carry the body in the field, they did not dare to approach it. The ground was full of snakes! And his tomb became the famous "
Lichuan Snake Tomb".
She was determined not to go back, and I couldn't convince her, so I had to grit my teeth and follow her to find the snake king.
There is obviously a certain kind of creature that really exists in reality, but you don't know anything about it, so it's easy to become afraid.
She can see the "snake path" in her eyes, but I can't.
stop-and-go.
Unknowingly, we were almost 2 kilometers away from the camp, and finally we caught up to a "small cave".
This cave was opened halfway up the mountain. The height of the cave entrance is less than 1.5 meters. There are no stones. It is a dirt cave. It is very dark inside and you can't see anything.
She was very courageous and without hesitation, she drilled in with a flashlight in her mouth and waved to me.
I can neither enter nor leave.
"Damn, I'm not afraid of a little girl, I'm afraid of a ball!"
The cave looked small, but it was very deep. I crawled forward behind her for almost ten minutes and still didn't reach the end.
Sudden!
I felt a chill on my neck, as if something had fallen on my head.
I subconsciously reached out to grab it!
"Don't move! This snake is poisonous..."
I couldn't see it at all, I just felt like there was a snake hanging on the back of my neck!
"Hiss..."
This is the voice of a vomiter.
She slowly approached me without making any movement. In the darkness, her orange eyes were particularly dazzling, and I saw that her pupils had shrunk into a "vertical line."
One person and one snake, looking at each other.
Then, I clearly felt a cold snake crawling down my back and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
"It's okay, let's go."
"What kind of snake?" I asked, wiping my sweat.
"The one just now was a white-headed viper. One bite can kill a person, but it's okay. It's gone."
"Brother Xiang, hide the star grass in your arms so that snakes won't come near you." She turned around and handed the grass to me.
"You don't need it?" I quickly took it and stuffed it into my arms.
She shook her head: "Just take it, it doesn't matter if I don't use it."
