The children of poor families are in charge of the family early, and there are many children in the village who come to do some work in the fields like them, but there are few in the end, and more are adult men. Most of the seven or eight-year-old boys, like the monkeys, roam around the village playing in the wild.

Zhao Jin still carried the basket on her back, and walked along the field to see if there was any extra gain, she needed money too much, and the money from the county order last time couldn't be taken out to spend, it was too easy to arouse suspicion. The ideal is very plump, and the reality is very skinny. The things in the field had already been picked up, and she felt that she could not do it, so she begged her father to go and dig some wild vegetables farther away. His father was not at ease, and he didn't want to cause others to be dissatisfied, so he asked the pillar to follow her to protect her.

The two walked all the way, looking for some pigweed, and after a while, the basket was full, weighing forty or fifty catties, Zhao Jin was tired to death, but the pillar was thinner than himself, and it would definitely not be difficult for him to marry a daughter-in-law in case the pressure did not grow long. Seeing that it was almost noon, even though the weather was not very hot now, I was hungry and tired after walking for so long and carrying such a heavy load. The pillar has been wild in the mountains and forests since he was a child, and he used to follow his father out to collect firewood many times, and he is quite familiar with the neighborhood. Soon a lot of wild fruits were found in the nearby trees, which could barely be used to satisfy hunger.

The two of them sat next to a clear spring in the jungle, eating wild fruits from the spring, but they didn't speak, and everyone's mood was not too high, as if their tired bodies were not their own.

"Sister, are you looking for something here? I see that your basket is full and you don't give up. Zhu Zi turned to his sister with a puzzled face, Zhao Jin sighed, she originally wanted to see if the crossing girl had a special buff to add to her body, obviously she thought too much. She spoke, "The last time I came, I met people from the village, and they said that there were pheasants or something around here, and I wanted to try my luck. ”

Zhuzi looked at his sister speechlessly, feeling that only someone like his sister who had been at home could think of such an unreliable thing as waiting for the rabbit. Zhu Zi pursed the corners of his mouth and didn't say anything, the best thing to do now is to let his sister hit the wall and find that she is whimsical.

At this time, Zhao Jin heard a noise around her, swishing, she let out a low sigh, she looked around vigilantly, and the pillar immediately looked around.

The dense forest is full of ancient trees, full of greenery, full of vitality, full of spring-specific vitality, layers of green leaves, blocking the scorching sun a lot, only sporadic light from the gaps in the leaves. The air is filled with the unique fragrance of the jungle, moist and rich in the smell of earth, and from time to time you can hear birds chirping in the jungle, adding a playful vitality to this quiet deep forest.

Such a place is really a good place to spend summer, and it stands to reason that it can make people relax, but I don't know why, at this time, Zhao Jin felt that the hairs on her body stood up, and she suddenly had a very uneasy premonition.

This premonition came inexplicably, but it made her so nervous that even the muscles in her body tensed.

Just as the pillar was still looking around nervously, he heard his sister say to him in a low voice, "You hide on the stone on the side!" As she spoke, she reached out and picked up the hoe with which she was mowing the lawn.

The pillar immediately looked in the direction of his sister's gaze, it didn't matter, he only felt that all the hairs that had stood on end were like needles on his skin, and goosebumps were raised, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back, so cold and greasy, that he almost screamed in fright. He forgot how to move, and was dumbfounded. Twenty meters away from where they were now, there was a small snake with a thick bowl swimming slowly, as if looking for food, apparently it had not yet spotted them, so its speed was particularly leisurely, as if it were shopping on the street, but its physique made people shudder, and its scalp was numb.

"What to do? How do snakes catch? How do we escape? Zhao Jin thought extremely nervously, his mind was running rapidly, what was the habit of a snake, and how to attack people? What breed is this? Does it eat people? The snake was getting closer and closer, and large drops of sweat oozed from Zhao Jin's forehead, his face turned pale, and his hands and feet trembled. The pillar held her hand tightly, and her hands were covered with sweat.

All of a sudden, Zhao Jin was like an initiation, she remembered, the snake has to hit seven inches, and it must be killed with one blow so that it has no power to fight back, how to fight? What were those snake catchers before, it was a fork! But at the moment, I don't have any, I only have a hoe and a stick to use as a cane. But she looked down and saw that the uneven branch on the cane had not been smoothed out, just enough to be used as a fork for a morphing version. She swapped with the pillar, and told him to wait for her to be subdued, and he immediately followed and knocked the snake out with a hoe.

Seeing that the big snake was getting closer and closer, Zhao Jin motioned for the pillar to pick up a stone at his feet when the distance was about the same, and threw it towards the snake. The accuracy of the pillar was still good, and the special accuracy hit the snake's back, and the snake immediately jumped, immediately turned around, raised its upper body high, and pounced in the direction of the stone rolling. At this moment, Zhao Jin immediately jumped up, took a few big strides straight behind the big snake, raised his cane and forked it towards its seven-inch position!

In fact, the speed of a human can never compare to the reaction of an animal, and the moment Zhao Jin ran over, the snake had already quickly turned its head to look in her direction. It stood tall and upright, and the black snake hyacinth kept swallowing, and its whole body exuded a fishy smell unique to snakes, which made people shudder.

At this time, Zhao Jin didn't feel scared. At this time, either you die or die, no matter what, you have to fight, she has reached a limit, running fast, her body is flexible into an S shape, and finally jumps to borrow the power of the branch and goes straight to the side of the big snake, only when you get closer to see it more clearly, this snake has an oval snake, with a black and yellow color ring on its body, about three meters, and the upper body is about forty or fifty centimeters upright, which is one-third of Zhao Jin's height, and it looks really dangerous.

The snake is a natural predator, and it can accurately predict the location of the prey's actions, so it has long looked at Zhao Jin vigilantly, and when Zhao Jin was about to rush towards it, it rushed towards her like a sharp arrow.

said that it was too late, but at this time, Zhao Jin's body seemed to have lost gravity, and it fluttered lightly to the side

It fell, and the branches in her hands were firmly forked in the dirt on both sides of the serpent's back, and the "human" shaped branches held it heavily between the branches and the dirt, unable to move. She was finally relieved and won the bet.
