Chapter 12: Survival

I went down from the small hill, and Wang Hong followed me and said to me: "Be careful, don't you see, the big snake in the hole below is as thick as a bucket, like me, he has eaten it, and he can't even fill his belly.

I ignored Wang Hong, this day, the bear blind man is too lazy to go out, let alone a snake, so I didn't worry about the snake, I came to the cave entrance of the opposite hill, and looked inside, it was dark, and a foul smell came to my nose, but there was a warm wind blowing out of the hole.

Wang Hong also poked his head out and asked me strangely: "It's strange to say, how can there be such a hole in this place?" And it's warm, do you think there will be blind bears in there?"

I said to Wang Hong: "The treasure we are looking for is inside, do you dare to go in?"

When Wang Hong heard this, she immediately glared at me and said to me, "Are you not teasing me? There's a baby in there? It's stinky, it's almost the same as a blind bear, don't you scare me, don't you want me in?"

I nodded, that's what I meant, Wang Hong listened, he blinked, with a simple look, I said: "It's all treasures, you can see it after you go in, there must be something shining on the ground, if I lie to you, I'm your grandson."

Wang Hong listened to my words, his face was a little hesitant, but he still gritted his teeth, covered his nose with a cloth, and walked in, but as soon as he entered, his body sank directly, and the ground was actually soft, Wang Hong was so frightened that he ran out and yelled at me: "your grandmother, you just want to harm me, return the gold ingot to me, otherwise Lao Tzu will let you be buried here."

I saw that Wang Hong was annoyed and angry, so I laughed, but I wasn't worried that he would dare to kill me, I ignored him, and walked into the cave, as soon as I entered, the smell was strong, and there was a depressing feeling, the ground was also sinking down, but I was very light, the ground was just stepped on by me, not like Wang Hong directly fell into the surface.

I walked deeper and deeper into the cave, it was very warm inside, it was a different world compared to the ice and snow outside, and the hole inside was getting bigger and bigger, I looked up at the top of the cave, and the thing hanging on it made me creep, it was actually a bat the size of a basin, these bats were hibernating, and occasionally made a few chirping sounds.

"Let's go!"

I looked at the black lump that fell from above, glanced down at the ground, and sure enough, I saw rows of small glowing particles, and I was extremely happy in my heart, this is the luminous sand.

I hurriedly squatted on the ground and pulled out the dry luminous sand from the ground, luminous sand is a very precious traditional Chinese medicine, and the luminous sand produced by bats like this is even more precious, in fact, the surface is all luminous sand, but after the accumulation of days, a dung pit has been formed, which has lost its effect, and only this newly produced luminous sand can be used in medicine.

I shoveled for a while, and the treasure bag was already half a bag, and I decided not to ask for it anymore, because I still had to keep it to find the five spirit fat, which are two kinds of medicine, and the five spirit fat is the feces of another kind of rat, which is like a chicken, and has meat wings on all four legs, which is the flying squirrel, which will live in the bat cave.

I looked around on the stone wall of the bat cave, and sure enough, I found that there were some different kinds of feces on the ground, I picked it up and felt about the same size as a soybean, smelled it, and felt extremely ashamed, this is the five spirit fat, the treasure of women, I picked up the five spirit fat from the ground, wrapped it in paper, there are only a dozen in total, this kind of thing is difficult to find in the northeast, because flying squirrels basically only live near Wutai Mountain, and it is really rare here.

When I was rejoicing, I suddenly felt something hovering overhead, I looked up, and suddenly panicked, it was actually a giant python, the python was really as thick as a bucket, at least more than ten meters, hovering on the stone pillar of the cave, suddenly it opened its bloody mouth and swallowed a bat heel.

But this action did not wake up the hibernating bats, I saw surprisingly, this python is hidden in the bat cave, and after waking up from winter hibernation, it will directly devour the bats here, it is simply once and for all, no wonder it will grow so fat, I quickly and quietly withdrew, I just stared at the giant python, afraid that it would turn back.

But what are you afraid of, I watched the python spit out the letter, looked at me, the snake is blind, but its letter is extremely powerful, I can't care so much, hurry up, I run, while looking back, the python actually chased over, the speed is extremely fast, only a blink of an eye behind me, I quickly rolled on the ground, the body is close to the ground, like a backstroke to climb outside.

Pythons don't bite, he will only pester you, and he will eat you when you die, the hole is very narrow, and the python can't wipe his body, so he can't take me at all, and when I got to the hole, I obviously felt the temperature change outside, I watched the python stop a meter before my body, and I was scared all over in a cold sweat.

Gazing at that god-like animal, the feeling of death followed me, I crawled out of the hole, got up and ran.

I heard Wang Hong muttering behind me, "Why do you walk in and climb out?" But as soon as he finished speaking, I heard his frightened cry and called me a deflated calf.

Because Wang Hong poked his head out and looked inside, he saw that the bucket-thick python was one or two meters away from him, so it was strange if he wasn't scared to death.

It's already noon when I return to Longkou Village, I didn't say anything about what I encountered with Wang Hong in Jiulongling, he didn't say anything, he has a tight mouth, not the kind of old mother with a broken mouth, and every village can know when he goes out.

Zhang butcher saw me come back twice, stewed four pig's trotters, and pig's tail, Wang Hong was not polite, four pig's trotters ate three, the tail did not let go, I didn't have the heart to eat, just drank some soup, and finally Zhang's mother made me a stack of sauerkraut before I ate it, I am very strange, I don't like to eat fresh vegetables and like to eat pickles.

After eating, I went to see Zhang Furong, Zhang's mother said that his daughter had been asleep since I left, and she had never woken up until now, and she was bleeding nonstop, not black blood, but red blood, so I asked, "Why don't you go to the doctor?"

I didn't say that Zhang's mother was not angry, but when she heard me ask, she complained to me and said to me: "It's not that Wang's mother has a broken mouth, why don't you know that my daughter is pregnant with a ghost fetus, this matter has been spread by Wang's mother, not to mention the doctor, even the Taoist priests in the town who hunt ghosts don't dare to come, we are still counting on you, waiting for you to come back to save your life."

After I listened to it, I realized that people's words were terrifying, and the mouth of Mrs. Wang's mother might kill Zhang Furong.

Zhang's mother saw that I was at a loss, so she cried and cried that her daughter's life was miserable, the front foot came out of the ghost gate, and the back foot went in again, and finally a ghost hand capable person wanted to save people, but he had to take 20,000 yuan in cash as a lottery, poor my man killed a lifetime of livestock, and there was not so much money, that person was also ruthless, and if he couldn't get the money, he didn't save people.

I heard the fire in my heart, isn't this taking advantage of the fire to rob? I looked at Zhang Furong's flushed face, and I knew that she had a fever, and I was afraid that it would be too late to send the mountain to the county hospital due to heavy snow, and it was cold and snowy outside, Zhang Furong couldn't attract the wind, otherwise she would die faster.

I saw that Zhang's mother was crying so much, so I said: "Zhang's mother, don't worry, I know that your daughter still has this catastrophe, so I desperately brought the spirit fat rice back, you, go to find carbon, ask for charcoal, it must be ninety percent dry, not a little damp, you crush the charcoal, fry it with five spirit fat, and then take it outside."

Wuling Fat is also called Lingzhi Rice, in short, it is just a name, Zhang's mother saw that I had a few grains of rat feces, and it was very foul, so she asked: "Fairy, can it work?" Why can't the girl stand the toss. ”

I know that Zhang's mother is afraid, and I am also afraid of human life, but now I can only save her like this, I said to Zhang's mother: "This thing is called Wuling Fat, which is used to relieve pain by blood, treat pain in the heart and abdomen, blood and qi after childbirth, and treat snake, scorpion, and centipede bites." Stir-fry to stop bleeding. Treating women's blood collapse, excessive menstrual water, and endless red belt, these are all written in medical skills, as for whether you can save her life, it depends on how you choose, I have done my best to be benevolent and righteous. ”

Zhang's mother still hesitated with the Wuling Fat, but Zhang Butcher was really ruthless, and the body squatting on the ground got up all of a sudden, went to the pot house to extinguish the charcoal that lit the fire and boiled the water, and then pulled out the charcoal inside, crushed it into powder, and let his mother-in-law fry it.

I didn't leave, I waited outside, human life is a matter of heaven, I have to be in charge, I hope Zhang Furong can live, after all, she is a good girl, I watched Zhang's mother go in and out, carrying water and medicine, after about two or three hours, I watched it was dark, and Zhang's mother came out of it, her face was a little happy.

I asked, "Is it done?"

Zhang's mother nodded to me, but she didn't say it clearly, I also understand, women's private affairs, men better not ask more, know that he is good, this time Zhang butcher knelt in front of me, kowtowed to me, I said I can't stand it, let him get up quickly, but no matter how I pull up, it took me a hundred kowtows to stand up.

I looked at Zhang Butcher's head covered with blood, and I knew in my heart that this person really had teeth, a hundred heads, that is, you bent over, it was a laborious thing, not to mention such a hard knock, I said: "Just a hundred rings at you, I think it is a good thing to save your daughter, father and son are filial, I hope you will not kill in the future, accumulate virtue and do good, so as not to be retributed."

Zhang Butcher has softened, I guess he can't hear what I say, just nodded vigorously, I told him a few words, let him go back to the house to rest, the blood on one end is really a little terrible, and then I took the stillborn hanging on the beam of his house, I have a lot of use.
