Sister-in-law Gu grinned and said, "Are you really, are you afraid of the well rope after being bitten by a snake for ten years? ”

Zhuo Ran picked up the chopsticks, put a piece in his mouth, and chewed slowly. Suddenly he stopped, frowning, not knowing what he was thinking. Sister-in-law Gu looked at him strangely and said, "What's the matter?"

Zhuo Ran really nodded and said, "I'm thinking that this Hundred Flowers Snake seems to be like the baby fish you hunted before, only found in Nanshan, how can it be seen outside Nanshan?"

Sister-in-law Gu said: "Nanshan is just a legend, not necessarily true. Maybe it's wrong, but it's also found in other places, I don't know. ”

Zhuo Ran said, "Then have you ever seen this snake anywhere else?"

"To be honest, I don't really have one, but just because I haven't seen it doesn't mean I don't. ”

Zhuo Ran said: "That being said, but the analysis of problems must always be judged from the most likely perspective. ”

"What are you worried about?

Sister-in-law Gu put down her chopsticks and looked at him.

Zhuo Ran thought about it, but shook his head and said, "To be honest, I also think I'm too worried, but the strange things I have encountered in the past two days have made me a little bit embarrassed." I'm worried that once those terrible monsters in Nanshan get out of Nanshan's control, will they face terrible conditions when they enter other areas. Because we were in Nanshan, we had encountered a lot of strange things before, such as trees that could eat people, grass that could pierce the instep of the feet, and so on. If these things leave Nanshan and spread all over the world, I am afraid that it will be a great disaster. ”

Sister-in-law Gu nodded and said: "It's true that you want to say that, but to be honest, we are not from the imperial court, nor are we emperors, there is no need to think for the people of the world, as long as we can live well." If those monsters really leave Nanshan and come to devour us, we will just have to deal with them to the end. ”

Zhuo Ran smiled and said: "That's right, we are not emperors, and there is really no need to think about anything for the common people in the world." Forget it, let's eat meat, the meat of this Hundred Flowers Snake looks really good. ”

So the two of them stopped caring about it, and ate with their bellies open, chatting while eating and drinking, and no longer talking about the strange things before, but only talking about some light topics. Until late at night, they were all a little drunk and then went back to their rooms to rest.

When Zhuo Ran got up the next morning, Sister-in-law Guo had already made breakfast. Tell him to eat slowly, he is going to take his son to fish, these two days are particularly good fishing, the fish are stupid, and you can catch a lot of fish directly under the net, just like that day, this kind of opportunity is rare.

I heard that some people who don't fish also go to the river to catch fish, so Sister-in-law Gu can't be idle, the fish in the center of the river are much bigger than those in the river, so she is not worried. But go early, because some people have already started to slide into the middle of the river on all kinds of improvised rafts to catch fish, and those stupid fish can easily catch even the most unskilled fishermen.

After Sister-in-law Gu explained a few words, she took a mallet and a fishing net and walked out quickly

Zhuo Ran Youzai was eating breakfast while humming a little song, trying to make himself as relaxed as possible. Because he didn't sleep well last night, he always had nightmares.

But Zhuo Ran couldn't make himself feel at ease, because he heard a noise outside. I didn't know what was going on, so I was startled, and quickly put down my chopsticks and went out to look outside. I saw that many people from the neighborhood came out to walk down the street, talking about it. Zhuo Ran pulled the door and walked over, and saw an old woman pulling a little daughter-in-law, the two were walking down the street, still talking excitedly and nervously, and couldn't help but be strange. He hurriedly asked, "Old man, is something wrong?" Why are so many people running out on the street?"

The woman said, "No, there is a strange thing in Tianbazi, which is very scary. ”

Zhuo Ran has been in the disaster shelter village for these days, and he has clearly understood the situation in various parts of the disaster shelter village. He knew that the so-called Tianbazi was surrounded by mountains, and there was a wide Tianba next to their village, on which many rice fields were planted. Now that the heading has begun, what will happen to the rice fields?

Zhuo Ran asked the two women, but they only shook their heads, saying that they didn't know, and they wanted to see it when everyone said that. Zhuo Ran followed, and felt that they were too slow, so he overtook them and trotted into the street. Here, he saw a number of people in the streets, swarming towards the rice paddies by the river outside the village. So Zhuo Ran followed behind them, he didn't want to ask now, seeing is believing. And from the comments of these people, he also roughly understood that these people basically didn't know what was going on. It's all hearsay, word of mouth, and then I came out to see the excitement

But soon Zhuo Ran knew that he didn't need to be told by others, because the scene in front of him could be said to be clear at a glance. When he reached the edge of the village, there were many people here, but he couldn't block the view, because it was a slope, and when he looked over the heads of these people, he saw a large area of rice paddies lying on the riverbank.

If it's just that the rice is lodging, it's nothing, the point is that after the lodging, the shape of the rice field looks shocking, it's a skull.

The skull was facing the village, and the two largest black holes and deep teeth and nostrils could be seen very vividly from the rice fields. Because they are far away and the location is relatively high, they can see it very really.

Zhuo Ran heard the people around him talking, but the voices of the discussion were basically exclamations, thinking that this thing seemed to be able to predict some kind of bad luck.

While everyone was discussing the events on the river beach, suddenly the crowd in front of them became chaotic and turned back and fled. Zhuo Ran saw the tide of people rushing past him and running backwards, but he turned forward against the flow of people, he wanted to figure out what was going on, and he couldn't blindly follow others around.

But soon Zhuo Ran understood, because he had already seen the cause of this panic. I saw a few black-clothed men with sticks in their hands, chasing dozens of beggars, and beating them to the point of bleeding. However, they seem to have forbearance, and they only use wooden sticks, not iron rods, and no swords and other murder weapons.

Therefore, apart from the beating of the head and the blood flow, there is no sign of taking people's lives.

Zhuo Ran heard someone running around him and said, Qian Shanren finally couldn't help but make a move.

Zhuo Ran immediately understood that this should be the grudge between Qian Shanren and the beggar gang that Sister-in-law Gu said. I thought to myself, no wonder people are so good and moving, if you want to take away all the wealth of others, you have to fight to the death of a fish and break the net. Judging from the skills of the few black-clothed people chasing those beggars, it is still quite good, so they can rely on a few of them to beat dozens of beggars to hide and run around.

And then Zhuo Ran noticed that there were screams and crying, and Zhuo Ran found that there were more than a dozen fierce dogs that rushed out with the black-clothed people, with long fangs and cold eyes. They don't bother to distinguish between those who are their enemies and those who are pedestrians on the road, and they bite people when they see them, and they have already bitten many people who are slow runners.

I also heard someone angrily scolding, "What kind of money is a good man? He is just a hypocrite who even instructed a vicious dog to bite someone." ”

Zhuo Ran also thought so in his heart, but he made excuses for others in his heart, thinking that he would be bullied to the head, and it was barely forgivable to fight back and hurt others. Besides, the Jianghu people who come to this village to avoid disasters basically have life and death grudges with others, so they hide here.

How many good people will there really be, and this Qian Shanren may not have been a big villain before, and he was retributed for accumulating too much evil, and suddenly thought of accumulating it by doing good. And hoped to be blessed by the heavens, so he became a good person and did good deeds. So far, the good deeds that Zhuo Ran has learned are nothing more than boiling a pot of porridge at the door every day and distributing it to the beggars, and there are no other more good deeds.

And in Zhuo Ran's view, if it weren't for the famine, the good deeds of opening a porridge workshop in normal years would be more of a symbolic meaning of doing good. In addition, in a normal year, beggars can still get food, and there is no need to drink gruel. With such a simple analysis, Zhuo Ran can understand Qian Shanren's wanton biting behavior even though his subordinates beat people with sticks and let vicious dogs chase them.

When those vicious dogs bit people all the way and rushed to Zhuo Ran, Zhuo Ran did not hesitate to pop out the plum blossom needle and directly shot the eyes of these vicious dogs.

The dogs immediately wailed in pain, grinning and showing their blood-stained teeth, and rolled on the ground. The dozen or so men in black who had chased after them had already rushed to the front, and they immediately noticed that the dog's barking was wrong. It seemed to be a wail. A few immediately stood still, and turned around to find the dogs lying on the ground, wailing too much to get up, their eyes bleeding, and apparently blind. Immediately frightened and angry, he pointed at the retreating people around him with a stick, and said angrily: "Who hurt our dog? Get out and pay for our dog's life." ”

Zhuo Ran didn't want to clash head-on with this Qian Shanren, he didn't come to cause trouble, although he wasn't afraid of causing trouble.

Zhuo Ran was about to turn around and leave, when dozens of beggars rushed across the street, holding stones, sticks, hoes, sickles or something, and they didn't know where they got them. A middle-aged strong man with four gloomy faces rushed to them like a tiger descending from a mountain, surrounded by beggars.

The men in black immediately took on a posture to meet them, and in their opinion, the beggars who had been repelled before were all rabble, and they would not be of much use. Unexpectedly, the group of people who rushed up was much more powerful than the previous ones, and the two sides scuffled together.

The sturdy middle-aged man led by him has not yet made a move, he only looked at it for a moment, then pulled out a single knife and jumped into the field silently, without greeting, he slashed a black man in the thigh with a knife, he had already seen the flaws of this person, and this blow made it impossible to dodge at all.

He injured several men in black in a year, and the men in black were immediately defeated. At this time, a few more people rushed out of the Qian family's compound, led by a white-robed young man. Zhuo Ran heard the people around him talking that it was Qian Gongzi who was here, and then he knew that this white-robed young man was actually Qian Shanren's eldest son. Qian Gongzi took out a long sword, and without saying a word, he fought with the sturdy middle-aged man, and Zhuo Ran listened to the discussion of the people next to him to know that this sturdy middle-aged man turned out to be the leader of the beggar gang, and his surname was Qian.
