Chapter 187: Snake Hunting
As soon as the day was bright, Wang Zhong was woken up by a dog barking, probably realizing that today was the master's good day, and the big yellow dog barked much more cheerfully than yesterday.
Wang Zhong woke up Wang Bowen, and when he got dressed and went out, the yard was already busy.
Several hardcover young people were busy chopping wood and lighting fires, and huge boards and fires were set up in the middle of the courtyard, all of which were busy in groups. When they saw Wang Zhong and Wang Bowen, they smiled and smoked, and they were busy with their own things.
After standing in the courtyard for a while, Wang Zhong pulled Wang Bowen out of the door and walked all the way towards the lush mountain.
"Going for a morning exercise?" Wang Bowen rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked.
"Go find a congratulatory gift."
"What congratulatory gift?"
"Don't you think it's rude for us not to give some gifts when people get married?" Wang Zhong said as a matter of course, and Wang Bowen quietly blushed.
Walking up the hill on the grass, I didn't go far, and my shoes and trousers were completely soaked with cool dew, and the refreshing coldness made people shiver involuntarily.
Wang Zhong took off his shoes and kicked them on his hands, walking barefoot on the slippery ground, feeling very comfortable.
His five toes were slightly sunken, like a dexterous tanuki, walking as fast as flying, so that Wang Bowen had to grit his teeth and trot all the way to follow.
When the sun came out completely, Wang Zhong stopped and seemed to say to himself, "There is a snake in this place, and it is quite big. ”
Wang Bowen licked his lips and subconsciously clenched the wooden stick in his hand, a little nervous. The main thing was the snake that was at sea at that time, which made a deep impression on him.
"It didn't go far, it caught up."
Walking cautiously in the deep mountains and dense forests, Wang Zhong's ears were slightly pricked up, trying his best to catch the subtle sounds coming from the wind.
Far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, away from the bright lights, away from the exhaust fumes of cars, Wang Zhong's sense of smell and hearing seems to have been purified a lot in the past few days, and some sounds can be captured clearly.
Rustle rustle......
About a few hundred meters away, the snake was swimming deeper into the mountains.
The serpentine likes shade, and the evening is a good time for it to forage for food, and now that the sun is out, it is probably going back to sleep.
Wang Zhong was willing to let it run away so easily, and counted on this snake gall to serve as a congratulatory gift to him, so he sped up a little, like an ape, jumping between the trees.
"Bowen, you find a big empty rock, don't follow up yet."
With a whispered command, Wang Zhong threw his shoes to him, raised his fist, and the battle intent in his heart suddenly surged.
After making a lot of progress in the control of the subtle strength of his body last night, Wang Zhong can be 100% sure that his combat power value is definitely more than 10,000, and he has really stepped into the threshold of the S-rank, and now, it is necessary to test it with battle.
Pulling apart a dense branch and leaf, Wang Zhong's eyes were dull for a moment.
It's a snake.
Orochi.
Although compared to the snake, it is like an earthworm, but it is large enough compared to ordinary people, with a length of nearly two meters, the thickness of the bowl, and the colorful body looks extremely hideous.
Wang Zhong was sure that the big snake must have sensed its existence at this time, and its body curled up into a defensive disc, and it raised its head and spat out letters, making a hissing sound.
"It's quite fierce, come on......" Wang Zhong stared at it deadly, his eyes revealing strong confidence, he tore off a strip of cloth from his clothes, wrapped it tightly around his hand, and took the initiative to attack.
To tell the truth, with Wang Zhong's physical fitness at this time, he can definitely abuse it, but Wang Zhong is not only asking for this effect, but control, absolute control, using this big snake as a whetstone to test the results of his exercise.
Hiss......
The serpent spat out a long letter, like a red lightning bolt, wrapped in a stream of fishy venom, and spewed towards Wang Zhongfei.
Sideways avoidance, kicked hard under his feet, the whole person seemed to be completely uncontrolled by gravity, forming a posture parallel to the ground, avoiding this blow, Wang Zhongyi stretched out his hand, grabbed the rapidly retracted letter, and flicked it fiercely.
Boom......
Like a rubber band bouncing back, the big snake twisted its body in pain, and a pair of triangular eyes quietly revealed a trace of fear.
This man came to be powerful, completely beyond its expectations.
"Don't try to run, I haven't had enough of it." The strip of cloth on his hand was corroded by the venom remaining on the letter, and Wang Zhong replaced it with a new strip of cloth and continued to provoke it.
"Come on, bite me."
However, with the first lesson, the big snake no longer dared to act rashly, and cautiously coiled his body, already wanting to retreat.
"Dare not coward." With a grunt, Wang Zhong moved.
Like a gust of wind blowing through the mountains and forests, his body writhed in a strange posture, more like a real snake than a big snake, as if there were no bones in his body at all, and every step he took could change direction in an instant.
The big snake's triangular eyes turned, and the snake's head was always aimed at Wang Zhong's body, but it gradually couldn't keep up with Wang Zhong's rhythm, and he was a little dazzled.
"Fool ......" Wang Zhong wasted no more time, and took a step forward suddenly, and the distance between him and the high head of the snake was almost less than ten centimeters.
The serpent moved rapidly, like a spring popping out rapidly.
Wang Zhong had long anticipated its movements and flew back.
The distance of ten centimeters is like a moat.
If it was before, Wang Zhong would never dare to play such a dance under the kiss of a snake, but now, after controlling his body in detail, he has full confidence.
That is, in the blink of an eye, the entrenched body of the big snake was stretched out by Wang Zhong, and most of the body was stretched.
This is the time to wait!
With a fierce force on his toes, he jumped up, jumped behind the big snake at once, stretched out his hand and grabbed it, and then grabbed the slippery tail in the palm of his hand, controlling its writhing, and Wang Zhong grabbed it.
The serpent struggled violently, and the snake's head twisted back desperately, its fangs shining with cold light.
"Honestly...... flicked his fingers, and a pebble popped out, which was poking into the mouth of the big snake and snapping out two of its teeth.
This...... It's just a one-sided abuse.
……
Ten minutes later, Wang Zhong dragged the corpse of the big snake and walked out, and Wang Bowen, who was looking forward to it on a big stone on the side of the road, couldn't close his mouth when he saw this scene.
"Damn, it's so big."
"Drag it on, go back ......"
"I'm going to eat snake soup."
"Eat whatever you want, eat snake whips......"
……
When they returned to the village, when they saw the snake behind the two of them, many villagers cheered, like a warrior welcoming the return of the battlefield, and ran to tell each other.
After a while, the groom and the official man in the bright red wedding dress hurriedly ran out, and when they saw this scene, they were surprised and didn't know what to say.
After communicating with the old people around him for a while, he patted Wang Zhong on the shoulder, "Do you know what they praise you, hero, this big snake somehow got a surname the year before last, and ate three children and two adults in the village, and the people in the village hated it to the bone. ”
"I thought you two were students who came to travel, but I didn't expect ...... It's a distinguished guest, a distinguished guest, it makes me so face-saving. ”
The man laughed heartily, waved his hand and led a group of people, and personally welcomed Wang Zhong into his yard.
At this time, there were already a lot of people sitting in the courtyard, five or six long tables were set up, with melon seeds and peanuts, brewing tea, and there were active children playing and making trouble, running around inside and outside the house.
Wang Zhong was also infected by such an atmosphere, threw the big snake aside, and carefully buckled it with an iron basin to prevent the child from moving.
Wang Zhong originally thought that after sending the big snake back, he was ready to withdraw, after all, there was still a long way to go, but in such an environment, he couldn't say anything about his farewell.
After a while, it was time to start eating.
Three whole pigs were placed on the cutting board, crowded to the brim, and several cooks were busy sweating profusely.
The table where Wang Zhong sits is the main seat, sitting is the old man who is his father, and the groom official, as well as the old man who is highly respected in the village, and in the middle of the long table is a hot pot, and the fresh soup of pork ribs is burned, which emits a burst of attractive aroma.
One dish after another, it was quickly served.
Stir-fried lean pork, steamed pork with sour pepper powder, pork blood tofu, pork liver, belly, and loin......
The color and fragrance are complete, and the index finger of the person who sees it moves.
"This is a pig killing feast, today I will marry my mother-in-law and invite the whole village to dinner." The man smiled with a red face, stood up, and poured a large bowl full of wine, "The first bowl is for the guests!" ”
The old people all nodded.
Although according to the usual rules, they should be respected first, but Wang Zhong did such a happy thing, in the eyes of the villagers, it was simply a god-like existence.
After drinking a big bowl of wine, the feast officially began, the cups and plates were loud, some told jokes, some persuaded wine, the children were screaming, the whole yard was steaming, and the laughter almost overturned the yard.
In the afternoon, the bride was married, and it was another big feast.
Wang Zhong didn't know how much wine he drank, and when he was happy, he didn't need to suppress his internal qi, and let a hot smell of wine run around his internal organs.
As for Wang Bowen, he had already drunk too much and was carried to his room to sleep.
When it gets dark, the day begins and the village returns to silence, like a movie theater after the curtain has ended.
The red candles were lit in the new house, and Wang Zhong couldn't stay here any longer, so at his strong request, they went to the old man's house next door to sleep.
At this time, Wang Bowen had basically woken up, rubbing his head in pain, drinking the bitter tea in the villagers' homes, and sitting on the bed in a daze.
With a creak, the door opened.
It was an old man who had been busy all day, holding a package in his left hand and a knife with a simple shape in his right hand.
Wang Zhong's eyes were puzzled, and he didn't know what the old man meant.
When I opened the package, it was a large piece of smoked bacon, which was hung on the stove by every household and left to eat during the New Year.
And that knife, after being pulled out, is also unusually sharp, probably the ancestral treasure knife of this family.
Seeing that the old man gestured, as if he wanted to give these two things to himself, Wang Zhong hurriedly excused himself. But he couldn't resist the old man at all, and after he left the bacon and the knife, he went out with his hands behind his back.
Nothing was said all night.
When they got up the next day, when Wang Zhong and Wang Bowen were packing up their things, they heard a heart-rending cry suddenly sounding in the yard.
I faintly heard a man's voice, and it seemed that the old man had died.
Wang Zhong chuckled in his heart and hurried out the door. (To be continued.) )
