Chapter 167: The thatched hut is a story of seclusion

The arrogant snake retreated, and the sound was like chime and jade.

Yu Linwei's long sword swept towards the two snakes wantonly, and the sword was fierce and arrogant.

The two snakes quickly retreated, walking like flowing water. They opened their mouths and stuck out their tongues, ready to launch a fierce attack on Yao Duo and Yu Linwei.

It seems that the time has come to strike a fatal blow at them! Yao Duo and Yu Linwei looked at each other and swung their long swords together, with a momentum like a rainbow......

"Two donors, wait!" The sound is like chime jade, vibrating people's hearts.

Yao Duo and Yu Lin Wei looked for prestige, and a hermit was walking towards them. I saw him barefoot, unkempt, crazy, squandering and laughing.

Two snakes quickly hung on his shoulders, sticking out their tongues and kissing his face. It seems that the relationship between man and snake is very intimate.

Seeing Yao Duo and Yu Linwei's faces full of surprise, Kun Shihui said to them:

"These two snakes are my goalkeeper Xiaobai and Xiaoqing, and they are specially welcoming you! If you do something to them, they must be heartbroken, so they will deal with you. ”

Could it be the legendary White Lady and the Green Snake? Yao Duo and Yu Linwei looked at each other and smiled, already understanding. They inserted their swords into their scabbards and hurriedly dismounted. Yao Duo stepped forward and said:

"Sir, is it Snake Mountain Hermit Quinshihui?"

"It was in the next that the two donors came to Snake Mountain, what are you doing!" Quinshin returned the salute.

"Sir, we have come in search of medicinal herbs. When I first arrived, I didn't expect to offend Mr. Xiaobai and Xiaoqing, the goalkeepers, and I hope Mr. Haihan! Yu Linwei also stepped forward to salute.

"These two snakes have been with me for many years and are very spiritual. So, I named them Xiaobai and Xiaoqing, which was also influenced by the legendary story of the White Lady Niang Flooding Jinshan. Queenshire explained the origins of Xiaobai and Xiaoqing.

"Mr. lives in seclusion in Snake Mountain, and is accompanied by Xiaobai and Xiaoqing, life must be interesting, right?" Yao Duo felt that this hermit was so interesting.

The female benefactor in front of her spoke like beads, and her voice was so soft, it was extremely beautiful. Queensey glanced at her a few times and saw that she had a beautiful complexion and an elegant bearing, which was even better than the legendary fairy. So, Quinshin said kindly:

"Living in seclusion really gives me a lot of fun. The worldly fame and profit once bound my hands and feet; The deceit of the world also makes me uneasy. After living in seclusion in Snake Mountain, I make a pot of tea every day, raise a few snakes, go up the mountain to pick some medicinal herbs, and meet some friends in my spare time. ”

Looking at Queenshui's leisurely posture, Yu Linwei cast envious eyes, and said to Queenshui:

"Away from the prosperity of the red dust, a handful of water and moon mirror flowers is indeed heartening and comfortable. We are so impressed! ”

"Everyone's lifestyle is different, and everyone has their own wonderful! What medicinal herbs did the two donors ask for in Snake Mountain? Queensey asked.

Looking at Queenshui's approachable appearance, Yao Duo was very happy, and she said to Queenshui:

"Sir, my fiancé has a cold and a high fever that does not go away, chills all over his body, and he is in a semi-coma. Your senior brother, Mr. Kunming Yu, asked us to find you. I hope to seek two herbs from you, snakeskin and plantain, to save my fiancé's life! ”

As soon as he heard Kunmingyu's name, Kun Shihui suddenly smiled, and said to Yao Duo:

"Kunming Yu is making trouble for me, and it's not once or twice. However, apart from taking medicine, few people come to Snake Mountain. I'm so glad you two are here! My little white Xiaoqing is also very happy! You are welcome to my thatched hut; I will entertain you with snake meat. After lunch, you can go back to rescue people with snakeskins and plantains. ”

"What a passion sir has! We can't thank you enough! Yu Linwei was very excited and said.

In this way, Queensey walked in front with Xiaobai and Xiaoqing on his shoulders. Yao Duo and Yu Linwei led the horses, followed behind, and walked towards the thatched hut together......

Xiaobai and Xiaoqing, clinging to their master's shoulders, kept twisting their bodies. The swaying appearance is very cute. They stick out their tongues, like fairies. It seems that there are guests coming, and they are also very happy!

Pushing open the gate, they entered the courtyard. However, when they looked towards the weeds in the yard, Yao Duo and Yu Linwei were instantly stunned: colorful little snakes, dancing among the weeds, their bodies were transparent; Crystal eyes, shooting a cold light.

Yao Duo and Yu Linwei were a little scared, and they hesitated and didn't dare to take a step. Seeing them so frightened, Quinshihui said with a smile:

"These little snakes don't bite people, they are not poisonous, the two donors can rest assured!"

Yao Duo and Yu Linwei's expressions relaxed, and they looked at these little snakes carefully, and there was a kind of interest in their hearts: each little snake writhed freely, like a light cloud moving slowly, like the wind blowing a soft willow. Every movement is natural and smooth, which is pleasing to their eyes.

The bewitching dance of the little snakes has an irresistible temptation.

"Let's go! Let's take a look! Queensey urged.

Yao Duo and Yu Linwei followed Queenswick into the hut. The house is simple, but tidy. On the front is a large kang with a small dining table.

On the left is a cabinet for herbs, and in front of it is a table and a chair. On weekdays, Queenshui studies herbal medicine here. A reclusive person can endure loneliness. Loneliness can be stable, the mind is calm, the mind is quiet, the mind is clear, the mind is clear, and the mind is clear, and the truth is clear!

On the right side is the pot table, the pot is boiling with water, the pot has a lid, is it snake meat in it? Yao Duo and Yu Linwei guessed.

"Go to the kang and sit! I was about to eat snake meat when you bumped into me. Blessed are you! "Queensway is very enthusiastic.

Yao Duo and Yu Linwei were both on the kang, and Yao Duo asked:

"Mr. Queenshui, how did you know we were coming?"

Kun Shihui gently stroked Xiaobai and Xiaoqing on his body, and said:

"It's not that I know! It's that these two goalkeepers of mine have a sense, Xiaobai and Xiaoqing don't want to stay on me, and they want to go out one by one, indicating that the guests must be coming. ”

"Wow, these two snakes are really good!" Yu Linwei exclaimed.

"Maybe it's Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing who have gone down to earth!" Yao Duo teased.

"Then Mr. Kunshihui is Xu Xian?" Yu Linwei joked.

Kun Shihui looked at Xiaobai and Xiaoqing on his shoulders lovingly, and said quite emotionally:

"I'm not Xu Xian, and they're not the legendary Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing. Rather, two non-venomous snakes. ”

"A non-venomous snake? Sir must have studied snakes quite a bit, right? Yu Linwei wanted to know more.

Quinzie is talented, and he said to Yu Linwei and Yao Duo:

"When people hear snakes, they are creepy; When I saw the snake, I was terrified. In fact, there are two types of snakes: venomous and non-venomous. Non-venomous snakes generally have a conical head with a thin front end and a thick back end. The pupils are large and round. The venomous snake has a triangular shape, a long barrel-shaped trunk, and a hiatus-like pupil. The snakes in my house are all non-venomous. You can tell them by their shape and their pupils. ”

Yao Duo and Yu Linwei looked at the two goalkeepers, and they really belonged to non-venomous snakes. Yao Duo asked curiously:

"Sir, what do you mean by snake meat?"

It is dishonorable to hunt animals, and Queenshui told them the truth:

"Non-venomous snakes are the 'heroes' of agricultural harvests, and most of them are natural enemies of rodents. So, I lived in peace with them and became friends. But those poisonous snakes that bite, I will catch them often. On the one hand, it is possible to eat meat, and on the other hand, snakeskin can be pharmaceutical. So, this time, I invite you to eat snake meat, which is the poisonous snake caught the day before yesterday! ”

Poisonous snakes? Yao Duo and Yu Linwei looked at each other, their eyes full of horror. Yao Duo said to Queenshire in a timid voice:

"Sir, will you be poisoned by eating poisonous snakes?"

"We don't eat the head of a poisonous snake, we only eat the body of a snake, and of course we won't be poisoned." Quinshin explained.

"Then we'll be relieved!" Yu Linwei breathed a sigh of relief and said happily.

Quinshihui made tea for them and filled the cups. Yao Duo and Yu Linwei were also tired, and they were very comfortable drinking tea.

Soon, Queensway served the snake meat. Then, with Xiaobai and Xiaoqing on his shoulders, he also went to the kang. The three of them feasted on the snake's meat.

Yao Duo and Yu Linwei ate snake meat for the first time, and they felt very fresh: it was really colorful, fragrant, lubricated and tender, and the two couldn't help but praise it in their hearts.

"Sir, can you give us some snake meat, there are still three people in the family, let them taste it too!" Yao Duo pleaded.

Kun Shihui knew that there must be Kunming Yu among the three people, so he missed his senior brother a lot. Kun Shihui said to Yao Duo:

"I'll wrap two servings of snake meat and let you take it back. Senior Brother Kunmingyu often comes as a guest, so there is no need to bring him. You give me a message and tell him that tomorrow I am going to catch a poisonous snake, so that he can go up the mountain the day after tomorrow to taste it with me, and reminisce about the old love. I really—miss him so much. ”

Missing is like a river, once you open the distance, you will know how to cherish. Yao Duo understood Queenshui's mood and said to him:

"Sir, I will bring the words to Mr. Kunming Yu. I guess he's thinking about you, too. If you have tasted your thoughts, you will know how to cherish. You are really loving, so the emotional sky will not be lonely. ”

"The benefactor really speaks! You two eat first, and I'll go and prepare snake meat and herbs for you." As he spoke, Kun Shihui got off the kang and got off the ground.

"Sir, it's never too late to prepare after eating!" Yu Linwei kept it.

"The patient is in a hurry to take medicine, and if I grind like this again, I will delay the time, and the senior brother will be unhappy. You bring the medicinal herbs back quickly, and the senior brother will think about my good. In the future, he will come to see me often! Queensey thought about his senior brother.

"Sir, it must be lonely to live in seclusion in Snake Mountain, right? Always expecting someone to come, right? Yao Duo asked cautiously.

"Looking forward to people doesn't mean I'm lonely, right? The thatched hut is surrounded by green bamboo and green trees, which is elegant and full of interest. White cranes also often come to the hut to forage for food, and are reluctant to leave for a long time; Drunk and hazy, the spring clouds were thick, and I happened to go hunting poisonous snakes. Queenshui's tone was very harmonious,

"I project my laid-back mindset onto these animals. There are small snakes in the yard that need to be fed, and Xiaobai and Xiaoqing are accompanied by them; I feel like they also enjoy their time with me very much, and they become more relaxed and comfortable day by day. So, I'm not alone! ”

This is really: the thatched hut is a story of seclusion, free and leisurely and fun.
