Chapter 41: The Black Snake
Yes, everyone present couldn't believe their eyes, has this house become a nest of bugs?
In a short time, a dozen large centipedes crawled out, as well as 7 or 8 large spiders, and even two bats flew out!
My sister-in-law screamed in fright, Brother Sheng hurriedly grabbed her, and hurriedly poured a circle of insect repellent powder around them, and the same was true for others, these big insects felt disturbing to anyone who looked at them, I was especially afraid of spiders, especially the spiders crawling out of this house, all of them were not much smaller than Ling Ruyue's Hua Feifei. (You can find this site)
In fact, Hua Feifei is fine, colorful, looking at it can be used as a palette to send away, the black and white lines on these spiders are staggered, and it is terrifying to look at it.
I hurriedly took out my bamboo tube and decided to sprinkle some medicinal powder out, but I happened to be seen by the master who came out of the house, and scolded for a waste, I quickly put it away, and put it up like a baby, and the master said that it was a wasteful thing, so this thing must be a treasure.
Insects are still crawling out of the house intermittently, but not like at the beginning, a large number of insects ran out, as if gushing out, but the insects crawling out of the back are getting bigger and bigger, and I even saw centipedes that are afraid of being 40 centimeters long, spiders as big as flowers Feifei, and straw shoe insects the size of palms.
Straw shoe insect, is the Sichuan people's name for this insect, in fact, its scientific name is worm, the whole body is feet, looks very similar to centipede, people who think it is ugly, will think it looks more terrifying than centipede, but it is not as poisonous as centipede, I didn't feel scared at all when I was a child, and often have hands to catch, this insect is very fun, as soon as I catch it, curl up into a ball, I often take pleasure in it.
However, I don't dare to have fun with the straw shoe worms crawling out here, not because it's not the reason, but because there are a lot of miserable white dots on its body, which look like a row of eyes from a distance.
"Master Jiang, what are you doing in there? Like stabbing a bug's nest? Qin Huai's face was pale, how could this 'little official' from Beijing ever see such a scene? He's probably not even seen a bug very often.
"It's nothing, every room is sprinkled with a handful of powder, it's already 5 or 6 o'clock in the afternoon, it's not a good thing to travel overnight in this gloomy place, we will settle here tonight, we always need a clean place to stay." My master said lightly.
Qin Huai let out a 'miserable howl', he didn't expect to live here, it seems that it is not easy to go out on a mission with this department.
"Feeling sad?" The master turned his head to look at Qin Huai and said with a smile.
"I'm afraid of bugs biting me at night." Qin Huai is really afraid.
"But what is this? It's good enough to have a house to live in, and when I used to go on a mission, there were corpses next to me, so I had to sleep quickly to recover my strength. Master said lightly.
Qin Huai shut up, compared to the corpse and the bug, he would rather sleep with the bug.
Gradually, there were no more insects crawling out of the room, because the yard was almost also sprinkled with medicinal powder by the people where they were, so a large number of insects crawled out.
When people were about to enter the house, Master shouted, "Wait, there's another problem." Wait a minute, you stand in the yard, don't move if you see any movement, Sanwa'er and come in with me. ”
Well, if you're in trouble, it's always best for apprentices, right? He kicked me just now, and he wanted to cut off the master-apprentice relationship with me just now, I felt uncomfortable, but the master's life was unbearable, so I hurriedly walked over and entered the house with the master.
It was obviously sunny outside, but when I entered the house, it was indeed dark and cool, I looked at it, all the furniture was still there, but it was a little rotten, presumably when the people in the village moved, they only brought some clothes and money, how desolate should this be?
"Still angry?" The master stood in the middle of the room, and did not say anything troublesome, but spoke about it first.
"Who isn't angry?" I muttered quietly.
"In fact, Yuan Yi is not a bad person, but he is bent on proving that he is more capable than others, and it is no wonder that he can only say that he has a grandfather who is too capable, and he himself is unwilling to weaken his grandfather's name, so he will behave like this. His grandfather was a man to be respected and admired, you know? Master patiently explained to me.
My heart is slightly hot, my master has more or less the character of the master, I have been with him for so many years, what he wants me to do, never explain too much, but let me understand it myself, explain it to me today, I am afraid that I also feel sorry for me, and I feel that I have been wronged.
Thinking of this, my anger also disappeared by half, but I still said: "Master, you didn't tell me who his grandfather was, I must be angry with him, that person looked like he was smoking." ”
"Sanwa'er, his grandfather is certainly the reason why I don't want to argue with him, but the more important reason is that our academic law and cultivation power are not used to compete with others, so who does he want to press, what does it matter? To put it simply, if you care, you will feel angry, then he will really press on you, what if you don't care? Master looked at me and said indifferently.
I thought about it seriously, yes, what if I didn't care? A person who fights for fame with a person who is not famous at all, I'm afraid it's a fool, right?
Thinking about it like this, my heart was relieved, this was not weakness and bullying, but an attitude, no matter what others do, I am calm! I figured it out, but with my fiery temper and sensitive character, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to do in the years to come.
It's just because I'm easy to care about others, as long as I care, my emotions will be affected, but that's later, and I don't have that much experience now.
When I felt comfortable, I remembered the trouble that Master had said, and I couldn't help but ask, "Master, what about the trouble you are talking about?" ”
Master smiled and said, "On top of your head!" ”
I was startled, and when I looked up, I suddenly felt a chill in my neck, because there was a big snake wrapped around the big beam of the roof!
I was standing under this thing and talking to Master for a long time!
I've seen snake spirits, but I'm not afraid of snakes, but I suddenly saw it like this, and it was false to say that I was very calm, and I was born in the countryside, but I know the habits of snakes, don't look at it lazy and motionless during the day, and at night, this guy will be active, no wonder the master said that this is a trouble.
"It's just a black snake, it's grown so big, it seems that the yin qi is really nourishing for them, and there are white marks on the body, it was originally a non-venomous snake, and now the yin qi enters the body, and a bite is enough to choke." Master said simply.
Of course I have seen the black snake, there are many rural areas in Sichuan, and the big ones can be as long as two meters, and in the era of famine, people did not beat the black snakes to eat. However, because the snake also had white lines on its body, I didn't recognize it for a while.
"Master, you say it's so powerful, what's the use of calling me in? I don't know how to fight snakes, I can do anything with ordinary black snakes. I said with a look of apologies.
"Less nonsense." The master pulled me over, took the bamboo tube out of me, and then poured out a handful of medicinal powder, and threw it vigorously towards the beam.
Of course, the medicinal powder dispersed halfway, but the room was filled with the special smell of the medicinal powder, and the black snake that the old god was wrapping around the beam suddenly seemed to be frightened, and suddenly raised his head, how terrifying it was, how terrifying it was.
Now it's okay, annoy the snake! I glanced at the master with 'resentment', but the master stuffed the bamboo tube into me and said, "Don't underestimate the snake repellent medicine of the old Wu head." ”
Sure enough, after a short while, the snake fell with a weak 'click', and I jumped away with a strange scream, and almost fell on me.
Then the snake struggled for a while, and then began to 'panic' and fled outside the house.
I heard people outside exclaiming, a big snake close to three meters, and then I heard the screams of my sister-in-law, hehe, women are timid, I thought proudly.
My master glanced at me lightly and said, "You are laughing, is there a big spider lying on the beam?" ”
I don't speak, what kind of rotten master is this? What about bullying apprentices for fun?
However, the house has finally been cleared, and we are going to spend our first night in the deserted village.
