Chapter 818: The Mysterious Snake Catcher
The old man's shouting got closer and closer, and soon he was outside the house here.
The farm shopkeeper walked out with a few guys, and Han Xuening and the jade girl also walked out.
"Big brother shopkeeper, is my daughter missing?" As soon as he saw the shopkeeper, the old man asked with tears and sorrow.
The shopkeeper didn't reply, and the guy next to him said to the old man, "Uncle, don't be too sad. Your daughter and the girl who was keeping the spirit were swallowed by the serpent. Mourn and be obedient. ”
"What? My daughter's body is missing? After the old man finished speaking, he rushed in.
After rummaging in the room for a while, he really didn't find his daughter, and then ran out and grabbed Han Xuening's clothes, "It was he who killed my daughter, so my daughter died without a body." You murderer, I'm going to fight with you. ”
A few guys around hurriedly stepped forward to grab the old man, "Uncle, don't make trouble, he didn't kill the person." ”
"He didn't kill him, who else killed him?"
The shopkeeper also stepped forward and persuaded him, "Uncle, his sister is guarding your daughter's spirit, and she was also swallowed by the snake, so don't get angry yet." ”
Han Xuening and the jade girl pretended to touch their tears, after all, the two of them were dressed as men, so they couldn't cry loudly, and they looked indecent.
"He's dead to his sister, you see he's so calm. What a cold-blooded guy. ”
The old man scolded while being dragged away by a few guys.
After the old man and a few guys left, Han Xuening cried and said to the shopkeeper: "Uncle shopkeeper, the three of us brothers and sisters have depended on each other since childhood, and now my sister has been eaten by a big snake, how can we explain to our parents under Jiuquan who call us two brothers." ”
"Two little brothers, don't be too sad, none of us want to see this kind of thing happen. Tomorrow, I will inform the farmer of this matter, and I will go to the snake catcher, and I will surely catch the big snake and avenge your sister. The farmer comforted the two.
In this farm, the general boss does not appear, and the shopkeeper is mainly taking care of it.
The owner of the farm is also the owner of the rice shop, and there are other industries in Zhangjiazhai, so he is relatively busy.
"Thank you, Uncle Shopkeeper. Then let's go back and rest first. ”
After Han Xuening finished talking to the shopkeeper, she pulled the jade girl, and the two went back crying.
Leaving the sight of the farm shopkeeper, the jade girl asked, "Sister, was Brother Bai Zijun really swallowed by the big snake?" ”
"I don't think so, I don't know what is going on. The truth of the matter will definitely be solved. Han Xuening said to the jade girl, "Tomorrow, after the farm owner appears and calls the snake catcher, let's take a look at the situation." ”
"Now it's only like this, I think Brother Bai Zijun's martial arts are so high, even if he really encounters that big snake, he won't be so weak and swallowed in one bite." The jade girl also had great doubts in her heart.
After the two went back, they didn't think much about it, and they didn't talk much in the room, so as not to be suspected by the guys around them that something was wrong.
The next day, after everyone had breakfast, the shopkeeper called everyone together to talk about what had happened in the past few days.
The shopkeeper told everyone that he had sent someone to inform the boss overnight yesterday, and the boss was taking care of business outside and had no time to rush back. However, the boss has been on the snake catcher in a row, and he will arrive at the farm at night, so that everyone should not worry. If there is a snake catcher, you will definitely be able to catch the big snake.
The shopkeeper's words did appease many farmers on the farm.
Everyone was waiting for the snake catcher to come at night and catch the big snake that had killed a lot of people.
Han Xuening and the jade girl wanted to see if they really came to catch snakes after the snake catcher came at night? Or is there something else?
On this day, the shopkeeper asked everyone to work all morning, and after lunch, let everyone rest, don't run out alone, it is best for everyone to be together in groups.
Because of so many strange things, the peasants were very afraid, and a group of women gathered around to talk about things, and no one dared to leave alone, and even called at least two girls to accompany them to the toilet.
The men also gathered around and discussed whether they could catch the snake after the snake catcher came in the evening.
Some men said that the big snake is haunted, and in the past three years, everyone has not seen it, and they don't know how big it has grown, and when you see it, it may be swallowed by the big snake.
Some men are still worried that if the snake catcher comes to catch the snake, it will also be swallowed by the snake.
There are also a few older people who know that snake catchers have their own things that specialize in dealing with snakes, and they can catch big snakes.
Anyway, there's all sorts of talk about.
These people regarded Han Xuening and the Jade Girl as ominous people, and they all avoided from a distance, keeping a distance of at least five or six meters.
The old man said angrily: "We were very peaceful here, but it was only after a few of them came that these cases happened. Now the whole farm is not very peaceful. ”
A young man, who followed Han Xuening to the city with the delivery, said: "Uncle, this can't be said either, this big snake has existed for many years. If the snake wants to come out, you can't blame them, besides, their sister was also eaten by the snake, and they were also sad. ”
As soon as the young man said it, some people comforted the old man and wanted to open it, and don't blame others. These are all meant and done.
It was getting dark, and soon it was time for dinner, when two men came running over to call everyone for dinner.
Everyone was waiting for when the snake catcher would come, so they had to eat dinner first.
After dinner, the snake catcher had not yet arrived, and the shopkeeper sent a companion to tell everyone to go and rest first.
Some farmers suspect that the snake catcher will not come, after all, this is a big snake that swallows people and does not spit out bones, and if you lose your life, it will be worth the loss.
When everyone thought that the snake catcher would definitely not come today, at the entrance of the farm in the distance, several people were rushing towards this direction with torches in their hands.
The shopkeeper immediately came out of the house and said to the peasants who were watching outside, "The snake catchers are coming, and I will go to meet them first." ”
After saying that, he took three or four men and walked in the direction of the entrance of the farm.
The jade girl whispered to Han Xuening: "Sister, do you think these snake catchers are weird? He wore a hat on his head, covered his face, and each of them held a torch in his hand. ”
Han Xuening said: "It's a little strange, but I can't say what's strange." Let's see how they catch that big snake first. ”
Han Xuening had a guess in her heart, this time it was probably not about the big snake, if it wasn't about the big snake, it meant that it was all man-made.
When these snake catchers arrived, they didn't really come to catch the big snake, they must have another purpose.
What is the purpose?
Han Xuening suddenly felt that a big conspiracy enveloped the entire farm, and it was likely that no one in the farm could escape the mastermind's hands.
