"Oh yes, you just came back, I guess you don't know yet...... It was the eldest son of the Three Cakes family who saw it first when he went up the mountain to hunt, and later many hunters saw it once or twice from afar. Uncle Ji gestured with his hand to the thickness of a strong man's waist, glared at his eyes and said, "With such a thick pair of eyes, a pair of eyes are green and shiny, and you can swallow a wild boar alive at a time...... Fortunately, it swallowed a wild boar, and the boy from the Three Cakes family had a chance to escape. ”

Uncle Ji said in a loud voice: "Now we don't dare to go up the mountain, we only dare to pick up some firewood at the foot of the mountain." When the government heard about this, it brought more than a dozen officers and soldiers today, ready to go up the mountain to have a good look. The second baby volunteered to lead the way, and I let him go. ”

Qin Ke frowned when he heard this, and said, "Uncle Ji, aren't you worried, such a big snake, the second baby will lead the way......"

"Hi. Uncle Ji seemed light-hearted, "Although it is said to be a big snake, after all, it is just a beast, no matter how powerful it is, more than a dozen officers and soldiers are wearing armor and carrying knives, even if they are blind bears, they don't have to be afraid." ”

"Hmm. Although Uncle Ji seemed calm, Qin Ke always had a bad premonition.

How many years does it take for a snake to grow to such a big size? If the eldest son of the Three Cakes family has the right eyes, this snake is at least at the demon level, although there are few rumors of demon beasts appearing in the mountains around Daoxiang Village, but if it is really a demon beast, there will always be some risks in hunting.

It's a pity that in the vast mountains, more than a dozen officers and soldiers are like dog's tail grass in a few weeds on the mountain, even if he goes up the mountain to look for it now, he may not be able to find it, it is better not to want to.

Qin Ke and Uncle Ji said something casually, thinking that at this time of spring, Uncle Ji should have a lot of things to do, so he said goodbye to him respectfully, and beckoned Cai Yan to his home.

The adults who came to see the excitement have been busy with their own affairs one after another, and the seedlings that have just been planted need to be taken care of, and this time is the most important thing to do.

The rest is just some little kids running around, and when they see Cai Yan, they will snort and smirk and say, "Sister, you are so beautiful, I must marry you home in the future!"

". Qin Ke rolled his eyes several times, "Ergouzi, how old are you, do you know what it means to marry home?"

The little kid with snot on the tip of his nose thought about it and said seriously: "You know, it's just eating together every day...... And talking...... And eating...... And also...... And eating...... Farming ......"

"And you will remember to eat. Qin Ke watched the little kid count with his fingers, and couldn't help poking his round belly and laughing.

Cai Yan rubbed one hand on the little child's head a few times, and his laughter was as loud as a yellow warbler.

"This is your home?" Cai Yan looked curiously at the yard full of all kinds of flowers and plants, the stalks of plants such as morning glory and pothos crawled on the fence, and the yard was a clean and smooth stone field.

Although the yard is not large, it gives people a warm and quiet feeling.

"Yes, Master and I ......" Qin Ke hugged the crockpot containing the other half of the chicken soup, his heart was inexplicably sour, and he gently pushed open the door of the courtyard.

In Daoxiang Village, everyone rarely locks the door, after all, the villagers know the roots, no one will do things like theft, everyone used to be homeless, experienced life and death, and there is no crooked thoughts.

It can be seen that there are often people to help clean the small yard of the house, and those flowers and plants also look like they have been carefully watered not long ago, and the water is smart.

When Qin Ke was busy cleaning up the house, Cai Yan was pacing with his hands behind his back, like an old pedant, turning around, sometimes lying on the recliner, sometimes sitting on the bed, sometimes taking out a collection of books from the books left by Zhuge Wolong, and sometimes sitting in front of the chessboard to play chess with himself.

She could slightly feel some of Zhuge Wolong's excellence from the simple and rustic layout of the cabin, and she could even imagine his meticulous sitting posture in many places, his frowning and contemplative appearance, and his diligence in reading at night...... It's just that all the pictures are just a lonely silhouette in the end, and in addition to the candlestick that is also lonely and crying, only Qin Ke is left.

No...... Maybe he's not alone, he's just used to being alone.

But he is not a ruthless person, on the contrary, from the enlightenment classics he copied for Qin Ke, it can be seen that he cares for Qin Ke meticulously.

She rested her head lightly on the chessboard, feeling the coldness of the chessboard, smelling the warm smell of the room, showing a little sleepiness.

However, at this time, there was a sudden commotion outside the hospital, and then Qin Ke opened the door and walked in with some eagerness.

"What's wrong?" Cai Yan asked, raising his head.

"I ...... I'm going out for a trip. Qin Ke glanced outside, "Something happened, Erwa took the officers and soldiers to find the big snake, but instead they were trapped on the mountain by the big snake, and the officers and soldiers were injured several ......."

"Big snake?" Cai Yan's eyes lit up slightly, and he became a little interested, so he got up and ran all the way to put on shoes and socks with bare feet.

Qin Ke hurriedly said, "It's too dangerous! You can't go!"

Cai Yan's hand holding the shoes and socks paused, his eyes blinked, and he stared at the seriousness and determination on Qin Ke's face for a while, and his excited expression also collapsed.

Uncle Ji was waiting anxiously outside the door, his ears were Qin Ke clenched the Bodhisattva sword, and his tone was firm and comforting, he said: "Uncle Ji, you wait in the village, let's go find the second baby." ”

"That's a good ......" Uncle Ji is not an unreasonable person, knowing that he is afraid that he will cause chaos if he follows, here I saw Cai Yan hanging his head, his face full of unwillingness and reluctance, and he also sighed.

In this critical situation, of course, he didn't have time to ridicule Qin Ke and Cai Yan, and slapped Qin Ke twice on the back and said, "Be careful on the road!"

Qin Ke was a cultivator, but after breaking off, it was only the officer and soldier who came to ventilate and report the news that walked in the forefront.

He was a little nervous.

It's not that he's afraid of the serpent, it's that he's afraid that he won't be able to stop something.

What if the second baby has already had an accident before he arrives? If the second baby has an accident, how will he face Uncle Ji and Aunt Qing?

Uncle Ji and Aunt Qing, although they don't blame him for this, or they feel guilty, but they are such gentle people, although Aunt Qing is a little pungent on weekdays, they are no worse than their own son.

He himself will blame himself.

The officers and men, who had already run profusely, still persevered, even though his breathing was about to turn into a cow's gasp, and his legs seemed to be filled with lead water, but when he opened a bush of thatch, he quickly cheered up.

He suddenly raised his right hand and shouted, "Right ahead...... Uh......"

A gust of wind was almost fleeting in front of him, and his last word was completely choked back into his throat, and the next moment, the silver sharp edge swept through the chill of the forest, cutting through the weeds, more like he was going to chop this piece of heaven......

The small cave simply could not provide space for a dozen people to stand, and a dozen officers and soldiers could only do their best to huddle up with each other.

But even so, they still can't get the slightest sense of security, but because of this crowding, they feel a sense of humiliation as if they are no longer human, how many years, have they been like an officer and soldier?

"Ahh

After a few breaths, the voice stopped abruptly, but not by itself, but because it was slapped in the face by another person, and it was forced to stop.

"What's it called!" The inspector who withdrew his rough palm said sharply: "Erwa, you fucking thing, isn't it just a drop of dew, it's worth your crying dad and calling your mother? If you lure the big snake over, I'll cut you with a fucking knife right now!"

The second baby shrank her head, covered her face that had just been fanned, and cried: "I...... Wrong...... I'm afraid ......"

"Afraid, you think we're not afraid?" said the inspector through gritted teeth, "If we're not afraid, it's necessary to shrink into this kind ......of ghost place and not dare to go out?"

The inspector's voice trembled: "The big pillar is a master of our patrol room, but why was he strangled in two strokes, where can we deal with it? Even if more than a dozen of us rush up together, I am afraid that it will be more than lucky." ”

When he said this, a low cry finally came from among the officers and soldiers.

Everyone knows the horror of death, and when they die, they will be devoured by a serpent, which makes them feel even more fear and despair.

"Mother...... I don't want to die yet. I don't know who spoke first, which immediately resonated with many people, and for a while, words such as "Daddy" and "I don't want to die" were floating in the cave in endlessly.

The inspection finally couldn't bear it anymore, and scolded: "Cry, cry, cry, cry,

The crying stopped, and the second baby shrank in the corner and said weakly: "Then my lord, what should we do?" ”

If he was a cultivator, he could directly kill the general with a knife in his hand and cut the big snake into eighteen sections.

But he is just an ordinary person, although he has practiced martial arts for many years, he has never been able to touch that threshold, and it is naturally hopeless to defeat the big snake outside.

The inspector's face was pale, and he endured it for a long time, and finally sighed and said, "I can only hope that the big snake is full...... You can raise your noble hand and let us go once. ”

"Leave us alone? How is this possible?" someone immediately shouted, "Look at it like that, I wish it had killed us all." ”

"! Lao Tzu still wants you to remind me?" the inspector scolded, "This cave can't get in, haven't you seen it before, even if he hits it so many times?

"That ......"

"Don't you understand!" the inspector interrupted everyone's questions, and sighed again, "When the big snake eats the big pillar, he won't be interested in us." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent for a while, and many people immediately turned red.

In order to survive, he even fed the body of his brother to the serpent?

But what could they do in the current situation? Break out of the cave and fight the serpent to the death? If they had that courage and force, they wouldn't have cowered in this cave in the first place.

Everyone has a father and a family, and they all want to continue to live, for their families, and for themselves.

Whining cries began to sound again in the cave, and someone whispered, "Big pillar...... We're sorry for you......"

"Don't cry!" the inspector scolded again, but this time it was bitter, and he couldn't get tougher in the end.

With the cry, the cave suddenly shook, accompanied by a loud bang, and in front of them, it seemed as if a big mountain had fallen down in an instant!

At about the same time, everyone raised their heads and looked towards the entrance of the cave with their eyes wide.

What they saw was a huge eye.
