Everyone stood outside the hunting ground, looking at the green snakes with green bamboo leaves. The snakes came out and entered the baskets where they were placed in an orderly manner. They were all dumbfounded.
Lan Yang held the princess's arm and said excitedly: "Grandma, look, the little emperor's aunt is really amazing, isn't she..."
"Yes, yes..." The princess was scared, but she couldn't show it too obviously. Her legs were weak now, but she still felt it was magical.
Lin Hao
If you do it, what will be the consequences, and the little princess also used this trick to teach those two ungrateful princes a lesson, hey, that scene will be much better than now."
King Yi looked gloomy at first, but then he smiled: "I didn't get sick from the fright, so it's an advantage for them."
"Humph, this is shameless and hopeless." Lin Haoxuan said coldly.
"This is so amazing, it's the first time I've seen it." Mo Yan said softly.
"The little princess's method has always worked well, but I don't know what she used these snakes for. Poisonous snakes cannot be used to make snake soup." Lin Haoxuan looked at King Yi with interest and a wicked smile.
King Yi understood immediately, raised his head and rolled his eyes at him: "Here you can eat."
But Prince Baoqing's face has always been livid, and now he really wants to kill someone to vent his anger.
Su Han stared at the tracks of these snakes, and finally she frowned and shook her head lightly.
Just when a snake with wet marks crawled over, she quickly grabbed it and touched its body.
"Uncle Emperor, is there any water source in this hunting ground?" Su Han asked Prince Baoqing.
"No! It's just a mountain. If you want to find a source of water, you have to go over the mountain. There is a stream, but it's not wide and doesn't have much water." Prince Baoqing answered.
Xiao Muting asked her: "Han'er, don't you suspect that these snakes were originally placed by the stream, but they crawled here on their own?"
Su Han shook his head: "They found a suitable place to live on their own, but the temperature here won't be very high. Even in summer, the temperature won't be as high as it originally was. Looking at this snake, what do you think?"
Xiao Muting glanced at the snake in her hand: "It's a little smaller, not big. Compared to the two we caught before, it's much smaller."
"Yes, it's a little snake. This one should have been born less than two years ago, which means that these snakes were here at least two years ago." Su Han raised an eyebrow at him.
"What the princess means is...more!" Prince Baoqing finally understood.
"Hmm... It's hard to say. Logically speaking, there should be no more." Su Han shook his head lightly and threw the snake in his hand upwards to the group of snakes. He looked at it in confusion for a while, then climbed into the basket.
"Princess, tell me what is going on," Prince Baoqing begged.
Su Han looked at the snakes with his arms crossed, and pouted.
"Let's put it this way, for a new species to adapt to and survive in an unfamiliar environment, the cost will not be too low. If one or two out of ten can survive, that's pretty good. But for those who survive, if they want to become stronger, it's not
Rely on them, and what you rely on should be..."
"Their descendants!" Xiao Muting answered her words.
Su Han immediately gave him a sweet smile of appreciation and nodded: "Your Highness is right."
He even raised his eyebrows at her proudly.
He continued: "It's just because these younger generations are the product of being born after adapting to a strange environment."
"Yes, that's it. That's why there are so many." Su Han pointed to the basket.
"What should I do..." Prince Baoqing was helpless: "Isn't my Zhuangzi useless?"
Su Han turned to look at the hunting ground again, and shook his head slightly in confusion: "But that's not right..."
"What's wrong?" Xiao Muting asked her.
Su Han shook his head again: "I just don't understand, but there must be something wrong..."
After all the snakes entered the basket, Su Han sealed the lid of the basket, tied it with a rope on one side, and asked Qi Wei to lead someone to carry the basket away and watch it until they left.
And want to take it away.
The hunt ended just like that, and no one was interested in continuing.
As the group walked outside the courtyard, they saw several servants carrying fruits.
Su Han gently pulled down Xiao Muting's sleeve: "I want to go to the orchard to see it, is that okay?"
Xiao Muting couldn't be the master, so he could only ask Prince Baoqing.
He had no reason to refuse and led them towards the orchard.
Only then did Su Han realize that the hunting ground was located between two orchards, which made her even more puzzled.
When she met a servant carrying fruit on the way, she ran over with her skirt in hand: "Brother, have you ever encountered a snake when you were picking fruit on the mountain?"
The servant replied respectfully: "Yes, not much."
Another servant replied: "Yes, there are, not too many, they are all earthy gray and not poisonous."
Someone else answered: "Not only are there snakes, but there are also other things like mountain rats and rabbits, but I have never seen the green snake the princess mentioned."
After Su Han thanked them, he thought about it in confusion and shook his head: "What's the reason?"
Prince Baoqing asked: "Could it be related to the fence between the hunting ground and the orchard?"
Xiao Muting shook his head: "No, you have just seen that under the influence of the snake attractant, the snakes will also fall down from the fence. There must be a reason for this behavior of not crossing the line."
When they came to the edge of the orchard and the hunting ground, Su Han saw a row of snake repelling grass that looked like artificial planting. She grinned and licked the corners of her mouth with a smile.
"The wisdom of the working people cannot be underestimated!" She muttered quietly.
She picked a piece of grass, held it in her hand, and shook it at the others behind her: "This piece of grass saved the people in this village. Uncle Emperor, if you have capable people in this village, you must
Thank him properly."
"What is this?" Prince Baoqing asked.
"Snake repelling grass, also called stink grass, has a very unpleasant smell and snakes avoid it. No wonder there are no snakes here." Su Han said with a smile.
"But didn't someone just say that there are snakes here, but they don't have green bamboo leaves?" Lin Haoxuan said.
"The green bamboo snake has a strong sense of territory and generally does not live in the same place with other snakes. It is common sense that non-venomous snakes are afraid of venomous snakes. It is normal for them to escape here, and originally the snakes here are not too
"More." Su Han raised his eyebrows.
Xiao Muting understood this time: "So, someone used this grass to trap the green snakes in the hunting grounds instead of letting them spread everywhere. This must have a purpose."
"Hehe, because not everyone can go to the hunting ground. If something happens, one bite will be a big deal, am I right?" Su Han jumped in front of him, looking like he was asking for credit.
"You are the smartest, you are right!" Xiao Muting nodded to her appreciatively.
"Hey, uncle, you have to cash in the reward!" Su Han did not forget this.
