Medicine King Chapter 20 - Collective Action (1)

As the only client of the head of the regiment, Han Ergouzi made an inspiring mobilization meeting, and he called on everyone as follows: First of all, as a leader second only to Wang Jin, this project is not easy. My two dogs deeply feel that the burden on their shoulders is heavy, especially except for Comrade Wang Jin, everyone's professional skills required for the work of catching snakes are not up to the mark. However, I believe that through continuous learning, we will all have a qualitative leap in the level of business technology in the near future. In the process of catching snakes, comrades must not relax their vigilance, and they must know that accidents are caused by accident. You know, being bitten by a snake will not only bring personal and property losses, but also bring major frustration to the morale of the entire team. In everything, a good start is half of the work. Let me ask you, do you have faith? As he spoke, he looked at the crowd with his eyes and waited for everyone to applaud.

What's more embarrassing is that no one paid attention to him for a long time. Or, Cao Xiaoyang's younger brother, Cao Xiaonan spoke first: Ergouzi, why do I think you have heard this kind of words, where have you heard it? When are you the leader, if you want to say that this leader, except for Brother Wang Jin, it has to be my brother Cao Xiaoyang, everyone is right? The fast-talking classmate also added: Yes, yes, the second dog is what the contractor often says on the construction site in the city. Pay attention to production safety or something, in fact, it is useless. I said Ergouzi, who appointed you as the leader?

The first time the second dog spoke, he made people stunned, and he had to do it, and he said: If you can't get off the stage, then it will be a problem to earn money in the future, so he said: Well, I'll help you analyze it. First of all, let's just say that we have been fighting since childhood, as far as you guys, when have you ever gotten good with our Brother Wang Jin? Everyone listened and was unconvinced: What does that have to do with you, come, borrow your slingshot, let's compare it now.

The second dog fought back with disdain: Stop, stop me. Now, what I'm talking about is literary, let's not use force. Let's not talk about Brother Wang Jin, let's talk about baldness. Saying that, he looked at Cao Bald: I am now Cao Bald's eldest uncle, I want to ask my brother-in-law, do you have any opinion on me as a leader?

His question made Cao Bald stumped, if you want to talk about the officer, of course everyone is here for Wang Jin. These two dogs really don't know how many pounds and taels they have. But he was telling the truth, and he would marry his sister. Thinking about it carefully, the way the two dogs spoke, the content is also reasonable, and they said: The two dogs, we do business, should this kinship be let go. I was afraid that Ergouzi would not be satisfied, so I continued to add: However, what Ergouzi said is good. Now, we are all people who are going to start a family, and we really have to be careful when we follow Brother Wang Jin to catch snakes. The ones we caught when we were kids didn't grow much longer than earthworms. Wait a minute, Wang Jin will take us to catch the big snake, it's really not a joke. As he spoke, he looked at Wang Jin with his eyes.

Wang Jin doesn't know much about Ergouzi, this brother is actually thinking about himself everywhere, but he is really not a master who covets any rights. He must have felt that this group of people were all Cao Bald's people, and if he didn't gain the upper hand in momentum, he might not be able to command this group of people with his prestige in the future.

At this time, when they saw Cao Bald, everyone looked at themselves, and said with a smile: These eight characters haven't been skimmed yet, what are you fighting for? I pondered, what leaders don't lead, I will talk about it when I see the money. Ergouzi is right, he is letting outsiders take it badly, except for playing tricks, there is no real character. However, his heart is good. In this way, let's go up the mountain and grab it, and all the things will be discussed slowly.

As soon as everyone heard Wang Jin's words, they all got up and prepared to act.

The second dog gave each person a woven bag. Add yourself, a total of seven. Wang Jin was strange: Ergouzi, what are you doing here?

The second dog said: What to do? Of course, it's a snake. That's right. Wang Jin looked at everyone, and everyone felt that there was nothing wrong with what the second dog said.

Wang Jin couldn't cry or laugh, and said to everyone: It's good that there are snakes in our village, from ancient times to the present. The long worm is in the Valley of the Medicine King, and everyone in this radius of hundreds of miles knows it. But this serpent, it is not for you to go, you can carry it in a sack. If it's so easy, then the Beijingers can't catch it themselves, and they still use us? Moreover, at the beginning of the spring season, the serpent is still in the soil, and according to me, it is enough to bring two. Saying this, he got up and greeted Xiaobai, and went out of the yard.

Wang Jin walked alone in front, and the seven people behind him followed him unhurriedly. While Wang Jin was pondering where to catch the snake, his legs unconsciously brought him to the small river in the south of the village. On the edge of the river, a row of tall willow trees. The river has made a bend here, and the children of the village often laugh here. The women often wash their clothes here, and the villagers call it "Moon Bend", and officially they often stay with Zhilan. Thinking of Zhilan, Wang Jin quickly quickened his pace and walked towards the vegetable field in the north of the village.

To enter the local vegetable patch, you have to walk through someone's yard. First, they were all from their own village, and secondly, they heard that they were going to fight snakes, and these farmers were so grateful. You know, this is working in the field every day, and it is these poisonous insects that I am afraid of. What is the matter of hard work, I was bitten by a snake, not to mention the cost of medicine, and if it is serious, I will have to delay my work for a few days. Nowadays, there are many people in the village who farm land, and they simply go to other places to contract other people's land to plant, and no one is willing to stay in this Medicine King Valley.

After passing through the farmhouses of several families, we came to a vegetable field in the north of the village. There is a high mountain on the side, and as far as the eye can see, there is a large vegetable field in front of you, full of wild grass. Wang Jin couldn't help but feel sad in his heart. When my father just died, this land was still being taken care of. But now it is desolate and desolate, and I am afraid that it will be completely deserted this year.

When the two dogs saw that Wang Jin had stopped, they gathered together and waited for Wang Jin's orders. Wang Jin said to everyone: I haven't been to this place for many years, I remember when I was very young, I saw a cobra here. Later, I changed the vegetable field, and I haven't seen it before. I have the impression that the people near the water are all grass snakes, swimming snakes and other species. Our Wang family never catches these useless and non-venomous snakes. This time, we want to catch snakes and sell them for money. So, I'm looking at the place, let's take a look. Everyone was grinding their fists and preparing to do it, just waiting for Wang Jin's order.

Wang Jin asked everyone to wait, and first took Xiaobai into the grass near the root of the mountain to observe. In fact, the main thing is to observe the characteristics of some animal activities on the surface. He hadn't gone far before he saw some scattered animal droppings. Upon closer inspection, it was found to be hedgehog feces. At this time, it was already spring, and the hedgehog should have just woken up from hibernation and breathed a sigh of relief. Hedgehogs are also good at eating snakes, but hedgehogs are very intelligent. Where there are powerful poisonous snakes, hedgehogs will not appear. It seems that there are not many powerful snakes around here, thinking about the "valley turtle" I encountered a few days ago, my heart is still beating faster.

Everyone watched this Wang Jin walk around from a distance, Cao Xiaonan, Cao Xiaohuai and the other 3 classmates chatting: What is he doing here? Why can't we see any snake when we want to catch it? When I don't have this thought, I can always see it. The last time I took the rooster, I said: The Wang family is capable, let's not worry, he will naturally teach us in the future. As he was talking, everyone saw Wang Jin waving to everyone, so they hurriedly ran over.

But I saw Wang Jin, standing in front of a steep slope close to the mountain, stretching out his hand to point out the direction to everyone and let everyone see. Everyone followed the direction of Wang Jin's finger and looked carefully for a long time, only to see two holes behind the grass. Each hole is the thickness of a thumb. Everyone said that Wang Jin's eyes were really sharp. Such a small hole can be found. Wang Jin said: You first take a look at the situation around here, and tell me what you have seen. Wang Jin wants these people to have more experience, as long as they don't catch the snake, it depends on luck.

According to Wang Jin's meaning, everyone looked around for a long time, and some said that there was nothing else but grass. Some said, "The ground is wet, and there must be water under the soil." Wang Jin agrees with the latter statement: In the rainy season, the water in this mountain will flow from this piece to the edge of the vegetable field to the river in the east. As a result, the place is a patch of semi-wet and half-dry water depression after April. There are naturally many animals such as yellow eels, loaches, and frogs. Snakes have food to make their homes nearby. It refers to a fallen dry grass at the bottom of the hole: see it, the water is the highest and this is the place. The snake itself can't make holes, so what are these two holes?

And they went up and looked, and some of them had dug a similar hole: this hole looked like a hole for a yellow eel. Wang Jin nodded and said, "Yes, this is like a hole in a yellow eel." I just looked at it, and it was very dry inside, and there were snakes in it.

Cao Xiaonan heard that there was a snake and said: Haole, look at me. As he spoke, he was about to put on the shovel in his hand. One was stopped by the second dog: What are you doing, Brother Wang Jin hasn't spoken yet.

Wang Jin smiled, feeling that this Xiao Nan was in a hurry: I said eighty percent, then there are two percent. You don't know how deep this hole is. If not, you're not working in vain. With his hands in hand, he took out the snake trap and the hook from his backpack.

Everyone was waiting for the opportunity to see this, and they all gathered at the moment. Wang Jin slowly looked at the weeds at the entrance of the cave and probed with snake pincers. Before he could reach the end, the hole was going towards the ground, and he told everyone: It should not be the hole of the yellow eel. It's like a hole for a water rat. As he spoke, he took the snake medicine with a strip of cloth and stuck the hook into it. I found a stick and stuck it in the dirt with an iron ring like last time.

Everyone watched Wang Jin skillfully finish the above movements, and stared at the entrance of the cave motionlessly, waiting for what should happen below.

After about three or five minutes, Wang Jin suddenly stood up and said to everyone: Let's go, change places. The crowd was puzzled.

Wang Jin explained: There are no snakes. In this way, more than ten places were changed in a row, and it was almost noon, but there was still no receipt. Cao Bald explained to his brothers: The temperature has just risen in the past few days, and the snake activity is relatively small. Wait a while, and you'll be fine.

Everyone was listening to Cao Bald's words, Wang Jin suddenly walked quickly to a hole, and neatly put the snake hook into it. In just twenty seconds, I saw Wang Jin's hands straining and shouting: There is. As he spoke, a colorful snake was dragged out of the hole. It's a meter. Wang Jin stepped on the snake's head with his foot and took off the snake's hook. Xiaobai rushed up and kept calling at the snake, but he was not afraid.

But no one dared to catch the snake, Wang Jin was happy in his heart, and said in his heart: I finally didn't disgrace my ancestors, if this is the Air Force, it is really a shame to be thrown home. Seeing that everyone was retreating, he deliberately grabbed the snake's tail very easily, and the snake turned its head and wanted to bite Wang Jin, but it couldn't reach it.

The second bald man took the braiding belt neatly, and everyone watched Wang Jin put the snake into the bag and walked, and as soon as the bag was turned, the mouth of the bag was tightened. Everyone said hello in unison and asked Wang Jin what kind of snake this is. Wang Jin: Red snake.

Locals know that the red snake is not poisonous, don't look at the color of the snake's body, in fact, it is very timid. When I was a child, when I watched the gourd baby, Wang Jin said that the poisonous snake in it was definitely not a red snake, or the person who drew the cartoon didn't understand snakes at all.

Wang Jin was very happy to see everyone, and reminded everyone: When catching snakes in the future, all situations must be considered thoughtfully. Catch the snake as much as possible with pliers. It is not recommended for everyone to do this with their bare hands. It's okay to catch this, but it's hard to let go. Most of the danger comes in the moment of the snake. Moreover, the smaller the snake, the more likely it is to be bitten by the snake when it is released. No matter how experienced you are, if you relax your vigilance at this point, there will always be a time to suffer, so be careful.

Everyone won the first battle, and their confidence exploded. I couldn't hold back and wanted to try to reach out. Wang Jin thought about letting Cao Bald try snake fishing first, so he took Cao Bald to find a cave in the distance. The second dog followed. Cao Xiaonan glanced at the others, and everyone understood what he meant.

Wait for Wang Jin and them to go away. Cao Xiaonan said: It's not enough to get one in half a day. Let's go dig the first two holes. I don't believe it, I have to rely on Wang Jin for everything. Everyone nodded, and returned the same way, and when they came to that place, Cao Xiaonan went up to open the shovel and shoveled. The soil flew up, and after a while, it was dug into more than half a meter. Seeing that Cao Xiaonan was a little tired, the other one took over and continued to do it. Everyone is a rural child, and everyone can do this digging work.

Suddenly, I heard the voice of the two dogs in the distance shouting, come on, it's shipped. When the people heard that they had caught another snake, they threw down their shovels and ran in the direction that the two dogs shouted. Only Cao Xiaonan was left alone.
