Mr. Snake Catcher was about to pack up and go with him, but when he saw Uncle Zheng's face was embarrassed, he said, "I still have something to do later, and Mr. Lao Fu came alone." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Mr. Snake Catcher asked, "Then dare to ask where is the house?" ”

Zheng Boduan pointed out the path address one by one, took out a tael of silver as a fixed coin, and said: "When Mr. catches the snake, there is another thanks." ”

When the snake catcher saw that there was silver, he nodded and said, "It's good to say, the official hurry back, I'll be there later." ”

Mr. Snake Catcher filled a bottle of realgar wine with potion, went straight to the mouth of the alley at the entrance of Zheng's mansion, and asked the neighbors left and right, and the neighbors pointed and said: "Passing through the alley, the largest mansion in it is." ”

So, Mr. Snake Catcher came to the mansion and saw that there was no one in front of the huge door, and felt very strange, thinking that this Zheng Mansion was not light on snakes, and there was not even a person to guard the door in such a big house. Inside the door, he came to the side room that Zheng Boduan said, pushed the door open slightly, coughed, and no one answered.

After knocking on the door for a long time, I saw a delicate beautiful woman walking out of it and asking, "Who is the gentleman looking for?" ”

Mr. Snake Catcher said: "Is this the official mansion of Zheng Boduan?" ”

The beautiful woman said: "Exactly." ”

Mr. Snake Catcher said: "Zheng Guanren said that there is a big snake in the house, please ask me to catch it." ”

The beautiful woman said: "Sir, my family is in a good house, where is there any big snake?" ”

Mr. Snake Catcher pondered for a moment, shook his head randomly, and said, "No, this Zheng Guanren gave me a tael of silver as a fixed money, saying that he would thank him after catching the snake." ”

This beautiful woman didn't need to ask much to know that it was Mrs. Zhang, she was angry when she heard the words, but she didn't show it on her face, and said gently: "We don't have snakes here, he is joking with you." We don't want this tael of silver, so you can take it. ”

Where is Mr. Snake Catcher willing to go, he has to say that he wants to catch a snake.

Seeing that she couldn't coax him away again and again, Zhang Niangzi became anxious and shouted, "You really know how to catch snakes?" I'm afraid that there is really a big snake here, and you can't catch him! ”

Mr. Snake Catcher sneered: "My family has been catching snakes for generations, what is there that a big snake can't catch?" ”

Zhang Niangzi also sneered: "You said it easily, I'm afraid that when you see this big snake, you will turn around and run away before you can make a move." ”

Mr. Snake Catcher said repeatedly: "Impossible! No way! The lady thinks that the snake is a flying dragon in the sky? Or is it a dragon on the ground? I can't help it? If I run away, I'll give you a tael of silver!" ”

Zhang Niangzi said: "Then you come with me." ”

Coming to the patio, Mrs. Zhang turned a corner and flashed into a room.

Mr. Snake Catcher was embarrassed to follow up because the other party was a woman, so he waited in the patio. After about half a cup of tea, an inexplicable cold wind blew in.

It was noon and the sun was perfect. Everywhere the wind passed, large dark clouds obscured the sun, making the originally empty house look even more gloomy.

The snake catcher was frowning, but he saw a big python the size of a bucket jumping in the middle of the room, and pounced on him.

Mr. Snake Catcher was taken aback, and hurriedly flipped backwards, accidentally breaking the bottle of medicinal wine in his hand. The serpent opened its bloody mouth, bared its sharp teeth, and bit down on Mr. Snake Catcher without looking.

When he was a teenager, Mr. Snake Catcher also learned some fists and kicks, and when he turned over in a somersault, he took a bamboo tube from his waist, twisted the lid, and threw out a large puff of medicinal powder in front of him with a "poof".

When the big snake saw this powder, he hurriedly retreated a few feet backwards.

It turns out that this powder is nothing else, it is the realgar powder used to prepare the snake catching medicinal wine. This snake is most afraid of realgar, but if you want to catch it, you must also prepare multiple herbs into medicinal wine. However, at this moment, it was enough for him to escape.

I saw that the snake catcher got up from the ground in a hurry, only hated his father and mother for missing two legs, and jumped out of the house as if flying, and ran out of the alley in one breath. That speed was a little faster than that of the Shenxing Taibao Dai Zong of Shuibo Liangshan.

Running and running, he inadvertently bumped into a person, and looked fixedly, it was Zheng Boduan.

Zheng Boduan asked, "What's going on with the snake catcher?" ”

Mr. Snake Catcher hurriedly explained the ins and outs of the matter, and finally took out the one or two pieces of silver and returned it to Zheng Boduan, and said with a wry smile: "The official asked me to catch the snake before, but he didn't say that it was a snake demon. It's really not worth it to put your life on the line for a mere tael of silver. ”

Zheng Boduan hurriedly said: "Sir, one tael is not enough, I'll give you ten taels!" ”

Mr. Snake Catcher shook his head like a rattle, and said, "Even if you give me a thousand taels of silver, I won't be able to do this business." I hope that the officials will find another master! ”

It happened that the uncle and aunt came back from a relative's house for a while, and saw Zheng Boduan on the bridge.

Uncle said: "You lady is undoubtedly a monster." Now the Li family in the Su Causeway area owes me thousands of dollars. You can go and live there for a while. If the monster can't see you, it will naturally leave. ”

Zheng Boduan was also helpless, so he had to respond.

The uncle took out the silver from the man's package, wrote a letter and handed it to him, and taught Zheng Boduan to go to Li's house.

Unexpectedly, the lady chased out, and when she saw Zheng Boduan's family standing with Mr. Snake Catcher, she didn't get angry.

The uncle and aunt, together with the subordinates, fled in a hurry, and the snake catcher's sharp eyes had long since disappeared, leaving Zheng Boduan standing alone at the head of the bridge, his legs trembling.

Zhang Niangzi came to the bridge and asked: "Official, you are so bold!" It wasn't enough to find the monk before, but today I'm looking for the snake catcher. You...... You're really going to me off! I tell you the truth, if you are good with me, I will be good with you. If it's not good, I'll flood Hangzhou and teach you that all the people of a city will die in vain! ”

When Zheng Boduan heard this, he felt a chill in his heart and didn't dare to speak out.

The lady sneered three times, turned her head and went back, ignoring him.

Zheng Boduan's head was empty, and he wandered all the way to the vicinity of Su Di, and was about to take the silver tael from his sleeve, but found that the letter was missing, and he couldn't help but cry bitter in his heart. Go back the way you came to look for it, where can you still find it?

Going around and around, I came to the gate of the Jingci Temple. Suddenly remembered what Lingzhi Zen Master said that day, and hurriedly walked into the temple, and when he saw the monks in the temple, he asked, "Is Lingzhi Zen Master here?" ”

When I asked all the monks in the temple, they all said that Lingzhi Zen Master had never arrived.

When Zheng Boduan heard that the Zen master was not there, he became more and more panicked and depressed, and came to the Su Causeway Bridge, looked at the clear water of the lake, and said to himself: "Creation makes people, creation makes people." Now that the world is in chaos and monsters are coming to force me again, what's the use of me keeping this life? ”

When he was about to jump, he heard someone behind him shouting: "A manly man, he is young and does not think about his ancestors, benefiting the people of the world, why do you want to find this short view?" (To be continued.) )
