Shi Zeng looked at the panicked Le Xiaosi and continued:

"I know you're scared, I don't dare let you see it, so I pretend to be hurt to divert your attention! If I wasn't afraid that you would see it, I would have chased after me with my phone and taken a close-up photo! Such a big snake, in real life, I really haven't seen it! ”

"There's... How big? Le Xiaosi had palpitations and was curious about how big it was.

Shi Zeng looked left and right, pointed to a camphor tree with a diameter of about ten centimeters next to him and said:

"It's probably so thick, it feels like it should be two meters long, not to mention, it really gives me goosebumps when I look at it!"

Le Xiaosi followed the direction of his finger and looked at the tree, nervous as if the tree was also a snake, and took a step back.

When she saw the camphor tree, she suddenly remembered that the small place here was called 'Camphor Tree Valley', and when she looked down, there were camphor trees on both sides of the valley, about a kilometer or so, all large and small camphor trees, not wide enough, scattered on both sides of the stream.

The large camphor tree can only be hugged by three people holding hands, and the origin of the name "camphor tree valley" is also the ancestor because of the large area of camphor trees here.

I have long heard the people in the village say that there is a snake nest in the camphor tree valley, and before entering the camphor tree valley, he encountered such a big snake, and Le Xiaosi was even more afraid in his heart: there are steep cliffs on both sides of the valley, and this is the only way to go home.

Shi Zeng saw her looking at the camphor tree, her expression was so nervous, she thought it was scaring her again, and hurriedly asked:

"Sisi, what are you in a daze? Don't be afraid, the snake is long gone, besides, what are you afraid of with me! ”

Le Xiaosi looked at the camphor forest that stretched far away with a sad face, and said:

"Don't you understand, do you see that camphor forest? The front is called Zhangshu Valley, and the villagers say that there is a big snake nest there, so I didn't dare to walk this road since I was a child, unless it was with adults. ”

Shi Zeng looked at the camphor forest in front of him, pursed his eyebrows, and said:

"Sisi, we are now walking on the highway, it is the highway! Snakes usually sleep in the shade by the stream, and they will definitely not go on the road! If you are really afraid, I will open the way for you in front, and you walk behind me, five meters away from me, and I stamped my feet, and even if there were snakes, they would have run away when they heard my footsteps. ”

Le Xiao thought about it, it seems that this is the only way, if you are alone, you have to go over it!

"Alright! That's all there is to it! ”

Le Xiaosi followed not far behind Shi Zeng, gritted his teeth, and quickly walked through the canyon section covered by the camphor forest.

Le Xiaosi just imagined that snake nest as too terrifying, and always felt that there might be snakes everywhere, but in fact, all the fears were to scare themselves.

When I got home, it was time to make dinner, and I talked to my grandmother for a while, and saw Le Xiaosi carrying a bamboo basket to the vegetable garden, so I went with him.

Looking at the pollution-free vegetables in the garden, not to mention pesticides, even the fertilizers are all natural, and you can eat them without washing.

After dinner, Shi Zeng and Le Qingshan continued to have a long conversation on the edge of the courtyard, all the topics were Le Qingshan's beginning, Shi Zeng usually likes to read, read any type of book, has a wide range of knowledge, Le Qingshan can pick up wherever he says, and he can make sense of everything.

On Monday, Le Xiaosi took him to the city, where she went to high school, and not far from the school there is a local museum, all about the flora and fauna of the forest.
