Ten minutes later, Deng Youde was carrying a little boy with a snake body and a human face on his back, while I was grabbing a branch and limping towards Liu Village.
The little boy with the snake body had already fallen asleep, and his body was lying on Deng Youde's body. Except for his head, which was still exposed, the parts below the neck were covered by me with clothes, so as to avoid being harassed by the villagers as soon as we returned to Liu Village.
Recognizing the abnormality of the little boy.
Along the way, Deng Youde was almost always talking about how I could have such a strong conscience that I wanted to take him back to Liucun. Aren't you afraid that this little boy would grow up to avenge his mother and kill me?
To be honest, I still worry about this, but every time I have this thought, my mind suddenly thinks of what the big black snake said to me before he died.
The big black snake deserved his death, but the little boy was innocent after all.
Deng Youde said that this little boy should be the offspring of the combination of the big black snake and a human being, and that the big black snake hates humans so much, maybe it has something to do with the little boy's human father.
As for the specifics involved, I don't know, but right now, I really can't bear to kill the big black snake and then leave this little boy to fend for himself in the wilderness.
I thought about taking it back to Liucun first, maybe the butcher and the drunkard could do something about it...
I don't know what Deng Youde used. He just sprinkled the powder on the little boy's body, and the little boy didn't wake up until now.
On the way back to Liucun, the sky gradually became dark. When we returned to Liucun, I first asked Deng Youde to carry the little boy with a snake body and a human face back to the house where I lived, and then I went straight to the village.
It is the most noisy place.
Before I even got close, I saw a lot of villagers gathering in the center of the village from a distance.
Each of these villagers looked excited, as if they were discussing some important matter, and several of them had raised their hands and shouted loudly.
"I told you that that harmful boy was definitely going to run away. You still don't believe it. It's better now. He's not even seen." A middle-aged man said to the villagers beside him.
"If it weren't for Uncle Tian's sake, I wouldn't have let that kid leave the village. Now that he's gone, it's too late to catch him..." Another villager responded.
The other villagers also echoed one after another. Among them, I also saw the middle-aged woman whose husband died. She started crying with tears and runny nose, which made several villagers around me greet me directly.
's whole family.
I looked up and saw that among the crowd, the butcher had a straight face and said nothing.
On the other hand, the old guy who is an alcoholic is trying to comfort the villagers and ask them to be patient, saying that I am not someone who will run away if they disagree with me, but the comfort of the alcoholic is obviously of no use...
I shook my head, thinking that I should go over and give an explanation to the villagers.
I suppressed my physical weakness and walked slowly over.
I first pushed away the few villagers outside who were chattering and scolding me. When those villagers saw my arrival, they were stunned...
"Is it him?"
"He's back..."
"He seems to be injured. No, look at how he is holding a very long snake tail on his hand..."
The voices of the villagers quickly attracted the attention of other people. After a while, the eyes of many villagers quickly focused on me.
Even the middle-aged woman stopped crying...
I walked up to the crowd and smiled at the butcher and the drunkard.
"You're back, hey, I knew you little guy wouldn't become a deserter." The butcher smiled at me with his big yellow teeth.
The butcher glanced at me, his eyes fixed on the tail of the snake I was holding.
I asked Deng Youde to remove this snake's tail from the big black snake for me. It is just one tail section and is more than one meter long.
I brought the snake tail to the middle-aged woman and said, "Sister, I have found and killed the murderer of your husband..." I said.
When the middle-aged woman saw the slender snake tail in my hand, her face was shocked!
But soon, she looked at the butcher, wanting to hear what the butcher had to say.
The butcher took the snake tail from my hand, looked around carefully, first asked where the big black snake was found, and finally said to the many villagers: "Everyone, please be quiet and listen to me. Killing Lao Liu and Lao
Zheng’s murderer has been found, and he is a big black snake that has become a spirit!"
As soon as the butcher's loud voice fell, everyone in the arena suddenly looked at each other and fell into silence.
But at this moment, before some villagers could ask questions, Deng Youde had already walked over.
"Villagers, I can prove that Zhou Lingfeng has killed the snake spirit. I helped him get the snake's tail off. He was also bitten by the snake spirit on the shoulder. The snake venom has not been completely cleaned... If everyone still
If you don’t believe it, you can come with me tomorrow morning to see the body of the snake spirit.”
Under Deng Youde's testimony, the villagers who originally thought I had escaped and cursed them all lowered their heads and turned red.
Those who still wanted to question were immediately silenced by Deng Youde, and they could only look at me blankly, with shock on their faces.
The silence on the field did not last long. The butcher raised my hand and said to the villagers: "Dr. Deng has testified. I believe everyone has no objections. I will go there to see it in person tomorrow morning."
But here, I hope everyone can apologize to him, not for anything else, just for the misunderstanding of him these days."
The butcher's words were loud and clear, and the villagers suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
This guy, when he talks bad things about others behind their backs, he is very energetic.
And once you have to apologize and admit your mistakes to others face to face, it is like a cowardly cucumber, not sweet...
However, despite the hesitation of others, the middle-aged woman who had beaten me took the initiative to walk into the crowd, picked up her two sons, then walked to me and knelt on the ground.
"I wrongly blamed you. I'm sorry, Xiao Zhi Xiaolei. Say sorry to your brother."
The middle-aged woman's move surprised me. I wasn't very interested in these apologies, so I quickly picked up the middle-aged woman and the two little boys.
"Sister, please get up quickly, I can't bear it..."
I just pulled up a middle-aged woman and two little boys on my side, and a few villagers on the other side started shouting sparsely.
"I scolded you, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you!"
"I also scolded you. I have blind eyes, and my eyes are covered with shit. I'm sorry..."
Almost all of a sudden, apologies sounded out one after another. The situation was completely different from the one when I was condemned just now.
I quickly signaled to everyone that there was no need to apologize. Since the murderer had already come out, there was no point in worrying about apologies.
I was never a hypocritical person, and now I have proven my innocence. Apologizing or not is completely dispensable to me...
Ten minutes later, the villagers gradually dispersed. The butcher glanced at me and said, "Does Sanniang know that you are back?"
I shook my head, "I just came back and Sanniang doesn't know yet. By the way, the two seniors come with me."
After saying that, I took the butcher, the drunkard, and Deng Youde to the house where I lived.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw a little boy with a snake body and a human face lying on the bed.
The little boy had his eyes closed and was sleeping soundly on the bed.
As soon as the butcher and the drunkard walked in, unlike my calmness, there was a hint of surprise on the faces of these two old guys.
"Little guy, what is this?" the drunkard asked.
I explained: "These are the descendants of that big black snake."
As I said that, I lifted the quilt off the little boy, and the slender snake tail underneath him was exposed.
The drunkard and the butcher looked at each other, and then the butcher glanced at the little boy on the bed and said to me: "Did you hear a word?"
"What words?"
“To cut the grass, we need to get rid of the roots…”
When the butcher finished speaking, I raised my eyebrows and immediately shook my head firmly and said, "No, I want to keep him. Senior Drunkard, is there any way you can help me hide his snake tail?"
