Yang Yunu had known for a long time that Qin Yao had opened a farm next door. Today, her future mother-in-law and future husband were quarreling with the two women. In fact, she was quite happy. She cooked by herself, fried a few side dishes, and entertained Li Qingyun's guests.
a friend.
Tian Mu and others praised Yang Yunu's good craftsmanship and said that because of the skills of his younger siblings, they would come to visit him often in the future. During this meal, they discussed the distribution of a small amount of fruits and vegetables.
The bit of lotus root I caught today was just for fun and fun. During the meal, Li Qingyun had already arranged for workers to go into the water to dig out lotus roots. They could dig out as many lotus roots as they could without harming the eels.
Some of the grass carp and silver carp raised in the pond were also fished out to compensate Yu Jun. Because he used few vegetables in the store, lotus roots basically didn’t belong to him. Finally, he said that he was tired and sick from going into the water and couldn’t go empty-handed.
Li Qingyun simply gave him more than one hundred kilograms to stop his mouth.
The watermelon Tian Mu wants has been out of the garden, and workers have been plucking the melon vines for the past two days. However, the apples, oranges, oranges, and grapefruits grown in the back mountain are basically mature and can be picked. Although Dahua Commercial wants these fruits very much,
Because the quantity was too small, I had no choice but to follow Li Qingyun's wishes and sell it to a businessman friend in this city, namely Tian Mu.
The live fish were brought back to the city that afternoon, as well as the vegetables and fruits. Tian Mu and Zhou Liwen decided to send workers to bring them tomorrow. To see them off, before Li Qingyun had time to relax, he heard frightened and anxious shouts from outside.
"Fuwa, Fuwa, that's not good. For some reason, a passing wind appeared in the fruit forest at the back of the mountain. It was so scary. It was more than four meters long... I almost got bitten by it when I was picking fruit. I was so scared that I would pee if it wasn't for it.
Someone next to me blocked it with a branch. Maybe I got bitten."
"Boss, now that all the workers are back, the fruit is scattered all over the floor, and no one dares to pick it up. It's so scary. The snake seems to have broken off a small part of its tail..."
The workers were at the gate of the villa, shouting at the top of their lungs. Even though they were from the same village, they still didn't dare to go in and out of Li Qingyun's villa at will. They always felt that it was too beautiful and they should not make it dirty inside.
Li Qingyun put on his slippers and ran outside. He was shocked when he heard the workers talking about it. Guoshanfeng is a king cobra, also called a mountain sign, a giant cobra, etc. The names are different in different places.
"A king cobra with a broken tail. It's over four meters long? Impossible...it can't be that vengeful guy in the mountains, right?" Li Qingyun's heart tightened, and for some reason, he remembered seeing him in the mountains.
The king cobra that arrived had sneaked into the military camp and killed a soldier who had injured it before he and his group entered Po Tao Temple.
If it was really that King Cobra, it would be terrible. It actually followed the mountain road for more than a hundred miles and found the mountain behind his home. Could it be possible that he wanted to take revenge on himself?
Regardless of whether it was that snake or not, Li Qingyun had to make a phone call and ask Chu Yang if the King Cobra appeared again after he fell into the cave at the bottom of the mountain.
When he came out of the underground cave, he was thinking about his relationship with Michelle and forgot to ask about the king cobra. He only remembered it when a worker mentioned it today.
The call was quickly connected, and after Chu Yang heard Li Qingyun's question, there was a brief silence.
"Why did you suddenly mention this? Have you heard anything from others?" Chu Yang did not answer directly, but asked Li Qingyun.
"What's wrong? Is there anything I can't ask?" Li Qingyun felt even more confused and uneasy.
Chu Yang pondered for a moment and said seriously: "This matter is quite evil. The instructor of the brigade and I have issued a silence order and don't want people to spread it. Since you asked, I will tell you briefly. That rule
The tailed king cobra later appeared again and bit the soldier who had hurt it, as well as a military doctor who was traveling with him, plus the original soldier. Three people had died under its mouth. You are the only one who has not been killed.
The person who bit him. Later we analyzed that it might be because you fell into the cave and the King Cobra with its tailed tail did not find you, allowing you to escape the disaster."
"What? They were all bitten to death by it?" A layer of white sweat suddenly broke out on Li Qingyun's back. It was so weird. The King Cobra had no tracking skills at all. How did it find these people accurately? The mountain behind his home
What's up with the broken-tailed king cobra?
Is it possible that this king snake with a severed tail traveled hundreds of miles to find this place just to avenge himself? Want to kill him?
Thinking about it, I found it unbelievable. It was so evil. No wonder Chu Yang had someone give him a gag order and didn't want to mention the matter of the King Cobra with its tail cut off.
Li Qingyun gave a bitter smile and said: "I want to tell you that in the mountain behind my house, a worker found a king cobra with a broken tail. It was also black with white flowers, more than four meters long, and was very similar to the one I saw before. Although I
I haven’t seen it with my own eyes, but I always feel that it might be that one..."
Chu Yang was startled and said loudly: "Impossible! You went back by military helicopter. Even a hound can't track you. Don't think nonsense. If you are really scared, I can
Let the military snake-catching experts go over and help you solve it! In fact, we also want to catch this king cobra with its tail cut off and study it carefully..."
"I hope not. Okay, I'll go and observe on the spot first to see if I can find it today." After finishing speaking, Li Qingyun hung up the phone.
Li Qingyun asked the worker to call Qicun over and asked him to bring snake-catching tools. He took advantage of this time to go back and change into a pair of high-top military boots and tuck his trousers into the uppers. At the same time, he entered the small space and inspected the hunting tools, but
I couldn't find anyone who could take advantage of it, so I had to go to the back of the villa and cut a thin bamboo pole, as thick as two fingers, and cut a length of about four meters to use as a snake beating stick.
Li Qicun probably received a call from Li Yuncong a long time ago. As soon as Li Qingyun came out of the hospital, he saw him, holding a snake trap and carrying a coarse cloth bag with unknown contents inside.
"I heard someone said it's a King Cobra with its tail cut off?" Li Qicun saw Li Qingyun's solemn expression and said, "Whether it's the one on Wangxian Peak or not, King Cobra with its tail cut off is very ferocious and very aggressive.
It is strong and hates the humans who have harmed it. Let’s go and have a look.”
Li Qingyun said dumbfounded: "It seems that you also know about the snake with its tail cut off at Wangxian Peak? I asked Chu Yang just now and he told me. It's really weird. There is such a snake. It's a bit too smart.
Already."
Li Qicun said as he walked: "My father and my grandfather used to teach me how to catch snakes and they often said that some snakes in the mountains can turn into spirits. I have always found it funny. In fact, think about it, real spirits are not necessarily those in fairy tales.
Fairies may be called "snake spirits" because they are too smart and exceed the limits of their kind. In the past, like you, I didn't believe in these mythical things. Even the Taoist treasures that your grandfather often read
I also think it’s mysterious. But in recent years, I’ve seen a lot of weird things, and I’ve gradually come to believe them.”
"Don't talk about distant ones, let's take the snakes in the nearest mountains as an example. Sometimes there is not a single snake in the entire mountain, and sometimes we see hundreds or thousands of them in a certain mountain col... If there are no snakes here...
I wouldn't believe it if you beat it to death! So, recently, I have stopped catching snakes. Because when I see those venomous snakes that are focused on some, I don't dare to get close, for fear of angering the people who gathered these venomous snakes.
Snake King...don't laugh, it's not just because of those rare meteorites, because before there were no meteorites, there were several gatherings of snakes. My father, my grandfather, including my great-grandfather, all passed down similar events.
story."
Li Qingyun saw that Li Qicun was talking more and more mysteriously, and some timid workers were scared to the point that they did not dare to follow him. Even the few workers who reluctantly followed said that they had heard from their grandfather that there were snake spirits and foxes in the mountains.
Some people said that when he was a child, he saw a dragon, climbed on a tree, and was struck by lightning until his whole body burst into flames... Then someone else said that he had encountered a ghost when he was a child, which frightened him into a serious illness.
He cursed and swore, telling lies that he had nothing to say, and his whole family would be killed by his lies.
Li Qingyun was dumbfounded. These are the real mountain people. When it comes to legends and ghost stories, they are legends that every family has personally experienced. However, these idiots did not listen to the first half of Li Qicun's words.
What do you mean, this spirit and that spirit are just smarter than ordinary people of the same kind. The same is true for human spirits.
As they spoke, they had reached the top of the mountain. The person in charge of the chicken farm, Mu Mu, was holding a bamboo pole and standing at the door of the chicken farm. He was nervously looking at the land around his feet for fear of a snake coming out.
When Mu Mu saw Li Qingyun and Li Qicun appear, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's good that you guys are here. Uncle Qicun, it's all up to you this time. I heard that there is a four-meter-long cross-mountain wind.
I was so scared that I didn’t dare to leave the door of the chicken farm for fear that the snake would get into the chicken coop. By the way, when I was picking up eggs recently, I found a lot of broken eggs. I originally thought that some hens had just laid eggs.
I drank up the slander, but now that I think about it, it couldn’t have been the one that passed through the mountains, right?”
"Oh? Are there too many chickens?" After hearing this, Li Qingyun immediately asked, "When did you start to notice that the eggs were broken?"
"The chickens I raised... I don't know how many days I raised them. I just took a look at them and felt they were about the same, so I closed them. The eggs seemed to have broken just yesterday." Li Qingmu was a little embarrassed because they were free-range.
It's really hard to count the number of chickens.
"It just appeared yesterday. Fortunately, I hope it didn't come long ago." After Li Qingyun finished speaking, he comforted his cousin and asked him to be careful.
After saying that, Li Qingyun asked several workers to stay here. He and Li Qicun walked from the side of the chicken farm to the fruit forest in the back mountain. According to the place mentioned by the workers, they slowly approached.
Because the back mountain was sunny and had some dampness, there were a lot of rotten leaves on the ground. Not to mention poisonous snakes, the bugs inside were hard to deal with. The terrain was a bit steep, so the two of them moved forward slowly and walked for more than ten minutes before they saw the workers.
The place where the fruits and fruit baskets were thrown was where the King Cobra with its tail was found just now.
Li Qingyun suddenly felt that he should bring gold coins and copper coins to help look for potential dangers. They were taken away by Maomao and Tongtong. Since he was not sure whether the people in Landa Temple would give up, he had been guarding against them recently.
If Uncle Qiinchun was not around, secretly releasing two giant pythons could also scare the King Cobra... But now, he had to rely on his own eyesight and hearing, for fear that the King Cobra hiding in the dark would suddenly jump out and hurt people.
