Doctor Jiang took the lead and walked up the mountain: "The foot of this mountain has been cleaned up by nearby residents, and the corpses are basically piled up halfway up the mountainside, young lady, go up." ”

Chu Yunyao nodded and helped Doctor Jiang: "Doctor Jiang, be careful." ”

Turning his head to look at Doctor Zhang, he said to Mu Qing: "Doctor Zhang's health is not very good, you can stay and take care of Doctor Zhang." ”

Doctor Zhang waved his hand: "The old man has a handful of old bones, and he can still hold on, he was sick last time, and now he is sick, and he can barely climb up." ”

The four of them walked up the hill along the path that had been trampled out.

Chu Yunyao looked at the surrounding environment and asked, "Elder Jiang, you just said that this is a snake mountain, but why are there frequent rats here?" ”

There are generally snake-infested places, and there are few rats.

Where rats are fat, there are generally few natural predators.

Is Snake Mountain just a name for this mountain?

Doctor Jiang picked up a branch of a tree, used it as a crutch in his hand, and said coldly: "The so-called Snake Mountain, as the name suggests, is of course a mountain with many snakes, and there are many caves in the leeward part of this mountain.

Over time, there were more and more snakes, and the hunters who went up the mountain to hunt could see a snake after walking a few steps, so they simply called this mountain Snake Mountain.

Now that winter is coming, the weather is freezing and it is the time for snakes to hibernate, and of course these snakes are not visible. ”

Chu Yunyao understood: "These rats are so fat, and the number is not small, and they will become the belly of these snakes in the summer." ”

There was a mouse scurrying in front of him, Dr. Jiang thought that Chu Yunyao would be afraid, and subconsciously used the branch in his hand to drive it away, but saw Chu Yunyao holding a silver needle between his fingertips, and with a wave of his arm, the silver needle came out of his hand, and the mouse fell to the ground and died.

Dr. Jiang: "......"

Silently retracting the branch, staring thoughtfully at the dead mouse.

Chu Yunyao leaned over, pinched the tail of the mouse, and screwed the little beast in his hand and lifted it up, very regretful: "I wanted to catch a living thing, but I didn't expect one to accidentally kill it, this little thing is much more fragile than I imagined." ”

Mu Qing: "......"

Dr. Jiang: "......"

This, this, this, how can this be.

Aren't the ordinary delicate daughters or ladies who are afraid of this kind of thing to death?

This young lady's courage is inevitably a little too great.

Only Doctor Zhang was calmer and asked, "What does the young lady want to do when she catches these gray mice?" ”

Chu Yunyao threw the mouse to the ground casually, continued to walk forward, and replied: "Do experiments, I used to use mice for experiments, but without mice here, I can only catch a few wild mice with tenacious vitality for experiments." ”

Chu Yunyao sighed: "Forget it, there are rats overflowing here, and when I go down the mountain, I'll catch a few alive and go back to raise ......."

Mu Qing: "......"

Dr. Jiang: "......"

Doctor Zhang: "......"

What does this mean, young lady?

I have heard that ordinary people raise chickens, ducks, pigs, and rabbits, and special people raise snakes and scorpions as medicinal herbs.

The closer they got to the halfway up the mountain, the stronger the smell of decay became, and Chu Yunyao took out a few mints and gave them to the other three, and continued to walk up.

Along the way, there were corpses, some of which had rotted away, and it was terrible to look at......
