Chapter 12: The Snake Catcher

Although Chen Meng sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, his ears were paying attention to the movement outside the house, and he could hear the two village guards walking back and forth outside the door, occasionally approaching and talking to each other, and from time to time someone walking on the street.

Chen Meng suddenly heard a slight sound of opening the door, and a good fragrance wafted in, and he hurriedly opened his eyes.

Hongyu walked out of the house and said to him, "Xiao Meng, why do you sit on the ground and sit on the stool, the temperature is low at night, don't get cold." ”

Chen Meng hurriedly stood up and said, "Aunt Yu, I'm fine, sometimes I sit directly on the ground outside." ”

Hongyu nodded and said, "Okay, if you're tired, you can rest, it's hard for you." ”

Chen Meng hurriedly said, "It's not hard, Aunt Yu, you can go into the house and rest." ”

After Hongyu entered the house, Chen Meng was about to sit down with his back against the wooden pillar, when he suddenly heard a voice from outside the house.

A young man's slightly shrill voice said, "Two big brothers, I'm here to see Big Meng." Let me in. ”

A member of the village protection group said: "It's so late, Chen Meng may be resting, so don't go in." ”

Chen Meng heard that the voice was Zhang Jin, and hurriedly opened the door and said, "Two big brothers, this is my friend, let him come in." ”

Only then did the members of the village guard get out of the way on both sides.

A lean teenager walked into the house with a smile.

The young man's eyes were small and single-eyelid, and his eyeballs looked dripping.

Chen Meng didn't close the door either, and said, "Xiaojin, why are you here." ”

Zhang Jin looked around in the lobby, and turned his head and said with a smile, "Da Meng, come and see you." I was scared to death today, and I thought you were bitten by a snake. ”

Chen Meng snorted and said, "Don't go around." ”

He asked Zhang Jin to sit down at the table and said, "You also know that I was bitten by a snake, so why didn't you inform my uncle when you ran back?" ”

Zhang Jin raised his eyebrows and said with a bitter face: "Da Meng, I'm scared and confused." Stay at home until dinner, and then I come back to my senses when I hear that Kai Hao saved you, but I just came to see you. ”

Chen Meng looked at Zhang Jin, he didn't know if it was true or not, sighed and said: "I'm fine, but it's bitter, he sucked out all the snake venom in my body, and he hasn't woken up yet." ”

Zhang Jin looked at the door of the inner room and whispered, "Da Meng, is Kai Hao still saved?"

Chen Meng shook his head and said, "I'll see it at dawn, you can go home." ”

There was a hint of impatience in his expression and tone.

Zhang Jin sighed and said, "Da Meng, do you want me to watch with you?"

Chen Meng said decisively: "Don't, you go back quickly." ”

Zhang Jin hesitated and stood up, looked at the door of Hongyu and Xiaoxuan's room, and asked curiously, "I heard that Aunt Hongyu and Xiaoxuan also spent the night here?"

Chen Meng felt a little strange when he saw him hesitating, and said, "Xiaojin, go back quickly." ”

Zhang Jin looked up at Chen Meng, who was two heads taller than him, and grinned and said, "What are you anxious about." It's still early. ”

Chen Meng didn't feel a little rough in his heart, and said fiercely: "Xiao Jin, what happened today is very serious, I need to be alone, don't bother me here." ”

Zhang Jin was really shocked when he saw his eyes, knowing that the consequences of Chen Meng's anger were unpredictable, and hurriedly walked out and said, "Don't worry, I'll go back." ”

Chen Meng frowned as he left the house.

I don't know why, since today's accident, he always feels uncomfortable with Zhang Jin's every move.

In fact, in Shuikou Village, Zhang Jin's popularity is not very good, because his father Zhang Laji, who works as a shoemaker on the street, is a wooden person, has a withdrawn personality, and has no friends, and his mother Chen Ronghong, when she was young, was a rich maid, and later it is said that her hands and feet were not clean and she was dismissed, and she made money by doing needlework on the street, the elders have introduced several girls who don't look down on him, thinking that he looks a little sloppy and a shoemaker, although the family has a house, and is reluctant to live with him.

Later, Zhang Laji himself was reluctant to go on a blind date, and those elders also felt that it was difficult to have a suitable candidate for his conditions for a while, and they did not help him introduce him, but Chen Ronghong took the initiative to get close to Zhang Laji, and the two became married in less than half a year.

However, even if Chen Ronghong gave birth to Zhang Jin and is already a mother, she still has a snarky personality, and most people are close and distant to her, and even many friends of the same age are unwilling to play with Zhang Jin.

Chen Meng's mother, Lin Xiang, kept telling him not to approach Zhang Jin, saying that he already revealed a treacherous aura at a young age.

Chen Meng and Zhang Jin have not had any contact with him, but recently, Zhang Jin suddenly always approached him, Chen Meng was originally soft and not hard, seeing that he was very enthusiastic, he also played with him, and went to the bamboo forest to play during the day, and Zhang Jin proposed, saying that a small bamboo cat can be caught in the bamboo forest as a pet.

Chen Meng was eager to get a pet to follow him, so he and Zhang Jin brought a cloth bag to catch the bamboo cat, but unexpectedly encountered a highly poisonous bamboo snake.

Chen Meng leaned his back against the big wooden pillar, wrapped his arms around him, frowned slightly, and secretly wondered that no matter whether Zhang Jin had a problem or not, he couldn't continue to associate with him, Zhang Jin's pair of dripping eyes always made him feel very unreliable.

Chen Meng thought as he bent his knees and slid down with his back against the wooden pillar, ready to sit cross-legged and rest.

Just when his legs were bent more than halfway and he hadn't sat down, Chen Meng's eyes widened, and there seemed to be an extremely slight but audible sound in his ears, and the direction was above his head, and he hurriedly raised his head, unconsciously startled in his heart.

Just less than half a meter above his head, a big crimson snake was already opening its fist-sized mouth, its body meandering down the wooden pillar, it looked like it had just arrived, if it wasn't for Chen Meng's sudden preparation to sit on the ground to rest, it might have been bitten by the snake.

The snake's body was as red as a flame, and it was obviously extremely poisonous.

Although Chen Meng had just been bitten by a bamboo snake during the day, he also had a moment of fear in his heart, but his reaction was very fast, his hands reached out behind his back and grabbed a broken enemy gun, and his left hand stabbed the broken enemy gun to the head, and the sharp tip of the spear just pierced into the open mouth of the red snake, almost at the same time as the tip of the gun pierced into the snake's mouth, Chen Meng's body moved to the side, and the entire tip of the broken enemy gun had pierced into the snake's mouth, he picked the tip of the gun, pierced it from the snake's throat, and inserted it into the wooden pillar hard, and immediately nailed the red snake to the wooden pillar.

The red snake's body writhed and wrapped around the enemy spear, Chen Meng had already stepped back, and saw that the red snake was no longer able to get rid of the enemy spear, and its body more than one meter long was hanging weakly on the enemy spear.
