So easy, simple, and fast, two cockscomb snakes died in the hands of Zimo.

Zimo didn't dare to be careless, and carefully inspected the island, and did not see anything unusual, so he moved the two big snakes to a bamboo raft, waved his hand, cut off the erected bamboo on the bamboo raft, cut off the rope, found a bamboo pole again, and rowed towards Chengyang City with the bamboo raft.

On the way back, Zimo held the bamboo raft, did not dare to relax in the slightest, was highly concentrated, and constantly checked the surrounding lake conditions, fortunately, there were no special circumstances.

The citizens waiting on the shore built a pergola with their hands and looked at the lake anxiously, no matter how brave Zimo was, but after all, he was a child, and it was impossible to let a child solve such a dangerous matter.

Since the morning after making the bamboo raft and returning, until now, the sun is west, everyone has not entered a drop of water, no one has left, and no one has called hunger and thirst, thinking that the little hero has not yet entered a mouthful of water to cut the snake and eliminate evil in front of him, a grain of rice, he is just waiting, there is no danger, what face is hungry and thirsty?

The more anxious he became, the more he waited, the more panicked he became, some people couldn't bear this torment, kept pacing and wandering, and even the innkeeper wanted to row a bamboo raft to take a look, but was stopped by everyone, and persuaded one after another: "I don't have that bravery, and there is no divine soldier, in case I encounter the cockscomb snake, I can only lose my life in vain, wait for a while, if I don't return, I will go together." So persuaded him.

At that moment, someone shouted, "Look! There was a bamboo raft there! ”

"Where? Where? Hearing this, the crowd gathered on the shore to search the surface of the water. Sure enough, there was a faint shadow of a bamboo raft in front of him, and there was a person supporting the bamboo raft.

"It must be a little hero!" The crowd cheered.

"Since the little hero is back, he must kill the cockscomb snake, and quickly beat the gong and drum to welcome our little hero!"

Someone immediately went to prepare, and after a short time, the sound of gongs and drums sounded on the shore.

The shopkeeper raised his leg and jumped onto a bamboo raft, and was about to support the bamboo raft to meet him.

"Shopkeeper, wait, I'll go too!"

"I'll go too!"

For a while, hulala, a group of people crowded onto a few bamboo rafts, and some people actually moved the gongs and drums to the bamboo rafts, and for a while, the sound of gongs and drums sounded on the surface of Lei Xiaze Lake.

The two sides met, and Zimo smiled and asked the uncles and uncles why they came over, and what to do if there was danger.

The people of the city did not answer, but they saw two red snake bodies piled on the bamboo raft, and immediately cheered, and the cheers drowned out Zimo's voice.

Seeing all the city's citizens, and finding that there was no more danger on the lake, Zimo's tense nerves finally relaxed, and he sat on the bamboo raft all of a sudden, and his body was sore. This whole day's fatigue, from supporting the bamboo raft in the morning, to the row of bamboo rafts, to setting fire to the island, to cutting the two big snakes, is not only physical fatigue, but also mentally always pay attention to the surrounding dangers, and quickly calculate the method of cutting the snake. As soon as you relax at this moment, you will relax from body to spirit.

"Zimo, what's wrong with you?" The shopkeeper was shocked when he saw Zimo sitting limply on the bamboo raft, thinking that Zimo was injured, and hurriedly stepped forward to support Zimo.

Zimo smiled and leaned on the shopkeeper's body: "It's okay, uncle, I'm just too tired, I suddenly relaxed when I saw you coming, and my whole body seemed to be falling apart." ”

"Oh, it scared me to death, I thought you were bitten by that snake. Hurry up, let's stop making a fuss, hurry back and let the little hero have a good rest. ”

The crowd collectively worked hard to support the bamboo raft and quickly return to the shore. The stars held the moon and sent Zimo back to the inn, someone had already prepared tea and hot dishes, and the city's citizens did not go back, so they ate together at the inn.

At this time, the door of a guest room upstairs "creaked" open, and Chi Songzi walked out, went downstairs to Zimo, and looked at Zimo with a smile.

As soon as Zimo saw the master coming, he quickly stood up and shouted, "Master! ”

"Sit down first, eat well to replenish your strength, after all the teachers know, it's really good, far beyond the master's expectations." Chi Songzi patted Zimo's back and said with a smile.

With that beat, a wave of heat poured into Zimo's big vertebral acupoint, and Zimo, who was feeling weak, felt that the hundred bones were comfortable, the hundred pulses were unblocked, and the fatigue in the whole body dissipated at once.

"Thank you, Master!" Zimo smiled, and then asked curiously, "Hasn't Master been in the guest room all the time, how would he know what happened?" ”

"Stinky boy, have you forgotten who Master is?" Chi Song shot Zimo's brain, "Don't say more yet, we'll talk about it later when we go back to the room." ”

"Yes! Master! Knowing that the master has been paying attention to him, Zimo's heart is very warm.

The shopkeeper who was supposed to accompany him saw Chi Songzi coming down, greeted him respectfully, and took the initiative to give up his seat and sit elsewhere. This shopkeeper used to blame Chi Songzi, who was a master, for not caring about the life and death of his disciple, and letting him kill the cockscomb snake alone, but at this time, when he saw that Zimo really did it, he suddenly felt the profundity of Chi Songzi in his heart, and he didn't dare to complain at all, and some were just in awe.

After eating a good meal, follow the master back to the guest room, the master and apprentice sat down, and before Zimo could speak, the red pine nut opened his mouth first.

"This snake slashing operation, whether it is the overall layout, or the on-site command, and the on-the-spot play, are all perfect, I really don't know how you came up with those ideas in your head." Chi Songzi smiled and praised, "It's not for the teacher to praise you, even if it's for the teacher's cultivation like you, if you want to do this, except for a hard battle, you will definitely not be able to think of these means." ”

Zimo smiled: "That's Master, your cultivation is profound, and you don't care to use this." But the disciples are different, and the enemy is afraid that the snake will escape, and it is not easy to train it, so this tricky method is adopted. ”

"It's not a trick, it's a combination of a person's courage, wisdom, and bravery. Originally, I took you out this time to experience you, and you did a good job, and Master was very relieved. Chi Songzi thought for a while and said, "You may still have some doubts, Master stays at home, how to know everything about you, just tell you, Master's method is called Yuan Shen out of the body, when you go to the island with a bamboo raft, the teacher will divide some Yuan Shen, follow you in the air, originally wanted to help you in a crisis, but it didn't work, especially to see you trap the snake's head with the rope, and use the bamboo pole to insert the snake body, it's really wonderful, hahahaha, this thing is enough for the teacher to brag to others for a year and a half." ”

Not to mention that the master and apprentice talked in the guest room, and the people of the city were very grateful to Zimo for removing this harm, and they prepared money and things, ready to be rewarded, and even the officers and soldiers who guarded the city also participated, and wrote a report overnight, so that people could quickly send it to Linzi, the capital of Qi State, to report the matter. There are also some of the city's citizens, rowing through Lei Xia Ze to the city of Nadri to report the good news. For a time, the two cities of friendship between the lakes and rivers were very lively.

Early the next morning, as soon as Zimo went out, he saw that the guest hall downstairs was full of city citizens, in front of him was an officer, with a few officers and soldiers, as soon as he saw Zimo go downstairs, they got out of the way, the officer stepped forward and saluted, with a smile on his face, "Xiaguan Chengyang City guards the city Fengziyu, meet the little hero, thank you for the city in addition to a big harm, a little courtesy, in order to show respect, in addition, last night Xiaguan wrote a good report overnight, on the little hero's deeds, but also asked the little hero to stay a few more days, there will be my Wang good news reward in the near future." ”

"General Feng, please get up, I am just doing a little bit for the people of Limin, and I can't do it." Zimo turned sideways and gave way to Feng Ziyu's salute and returned the salute.

"Deserve it, deserve it, if the little hero can't deserve it, I don't know who else can deserve it." General Nafeng smiled, "Although the little hero is still young, but this behavior can be called everyone's demeanor, and it is not very convenient to always be commensurate with the little hero. It is also convenient to communicate with each other. ”

"General Feng is killing the kid, not to mention how the kid He De can deserve the title of 'son', even in terms of age, he never has the age to be called 'son'."

"What is not possessed, everything is determined by people, just to eliminate the evil, although we are the general of the city, but the ability is limited, and we have many times to kill the evil snake, but every time it ends in failure, but also for this to take the lives of two brothers, that past guests, there are also those who are strong, the lower officials have also begged each other, but no one answered, for fear of losing their reputation and losing their lives. But now, the little hero is a child, regardless of the danger of his own family, and kills the evil snake, which is enough to deserve the title of 'Mozi'. Mozi, please take a seat, please accept the words of Chengyang City and worship the people of Chengyang City! "Say goodbye, bow down.

"Mozi, please take a seat, please accept me and wait for a while!" And the people of the house hall also joined in.

"General Feng quickly flattened down, all the uncles quickly flattened, Zimo was terrified! Shame on you! Shame on you! Zimo turned sideways and saluted again.

In the summer of 469 B.C., Zimo was 12 years old, because of his wisdom to kill the cockscomb snake, the people of Chengyang and Chuidu were in danger, and the soldiers and civilians of the two cities loved him and called him "Mozi".

Now that the name has been decided, it is convenient to call it. This has also created a miracle in ancient and modern times, and the first time in history to be a child is called a "son".

Everyone sat down and chatted, the innkeeper had already arranged, not for a long time, brought all kinds of refreshments, entertained Zimo, General Feng and the neighbors, and personally sent some red pine nuts upstairs, at this moment I already knew that the red pine nuts were high, and I didn't dare to disturb its quietness, and after sending snacks, I quit.

The shopkeeper did not immediately go down to the guest hall, but came to the back room, picked up a thick bamboo tube, chose a new pen, brought inkstone, grinned at the corners of his mouth, and smiled, as if he was holding a gold brick. The shopkeeper turned around and returned to the guest hall, came to Zimo's table, first greeted General Feng, put those objects on the table with a smile, and said to Zimo: "Mozi, the little shopkeeper has a reluctant request, I don't know if you can agree." ”

"Oh uncle, why do you call Zimo like that, just call him by his name." Zimo hurriedly stood up and bowed to the shopkeeper.

"You must be commensurate with Mozi, otherwise I will call you by your name so arrogantly, and the people of a city will call you Mozi, and when you go out later, you will not be beaten and blackened, I am afraid." said that he was scared, but the shopkeeper's face was smiling.

Zimo couldn't change it, so he let it be.

"I wonder what Uncle asked me to do?"

When the shopkeeper heard this, he knew that there was a door, and set up the inkstone of the pen, and then picked up the bamboo tube and poured it out, poured out a red scroll, spread it out, but it was two red strips, some soft, like cloth not like cloth.

"What is this?" Zimo doesn't know why.

"You showed your might yesterday, killed two cockscomb snakes, in addition to a big harm for our Chengyang City, I carefully looked at the snake skin yesterday, very flexible, and advocated without authorization, each snake picked up some skin down, removed the scales, sold it overnight, cut into two long strips, I want you to write down some words, leave some ink treasures, so hang on the door of the inn, ward off evil spirits, hehe!"

The shopkeeper didn't say it, Zimo hadn't seen it yet, this reminder, and then looked carefully at the long couplet, sure enough, from the other side, you can also see the umbrella shape of the snake scales, which is the snake skin.

"Hey, I said the shopkeeper, you really have the scheming, you know that the ink treasure left Mozi to ward off evil spirits, but if you want to ward off evil spirits, you must also hang it at the gate of our Chengyang City to bless the people of a city." General Fengziyu stopped doing it as soon as he heard it, how could such a good thing be allowed to be swallowed by the innkeeper alone.

"Haha, I know that the general will talk about it, and I have prepared a pair for you." After that, the shopkeeper poured down the bamboo tube again, and sure enough, he poured out a roll of snake skin.
