Chapter 478 There is a Snake
"I felt... I was quite scared at the time. The swing of the knife was a completely subconscious action. I just turned around and chopped it down. I didn't know what would happen. I just held my breath and scared him. In fact, my hands were shaking when I rode my bike back that day." Xue Li scratched his face again, then turned his head to let Jiang Yu see, "Was I bitten by a mosquito?"
Jiang Yu took a look and said, "Yes, there is a big bump. Don't scratch it, or it will break."
"Okay." Xue Li put down his hand that he had raised again, and continued, "I forgot to bring my medicine bag. Tsk! I was blown by the cold wind all the way back. When I arrived at the educated youth point, I finally came to my senses and was able to calmly tell Wu Ge and the others about this. Yu'er, I really felt that I had grown up at that time."
"After going through some things, it will definitely have an impact on us, but you didn't back down at the time, which was very brave." When Jiang Yu learned about this, he realized that Xue Li also needed room to grow. Although it was a very bad experience, she did not get hurt, which was a huge improvement.
Because of her own change of mind, she did not stand up for Xue Li and teach the man a lesson, because she knew that Xue Li could handle everything on his own.
Xue Li raised her head proudly, "Yu'er, let me tell you, I'm pretty capable now!" After all, she was a woman who had gone to the city on her own, and she had improved a lot compared to when she first came here!
"You will become more and more powerful in the future." Jiang Yu said very affirmatively.
"of course!"
After the two finished talking, they continued to pick wild vegetables. Xue Li was thinking about going back to mix the wild vegetables with lard and sesame seeds, which would surely be delicious.
Jiang Yu actually wanted to eat wild vegetable buns. Although she didn't have the good cooking skills of Yi Chi and Wu Aiqing, the ingredients were of high quality, so she thought the finished product should not be too bad.
Over there, Wu Xiaoxiao was holding onto a tree trunk and carefully peering into the bushes ahead. Behind her, He Chongwen repeatedly emphasized to her to be careful, a grown man worrying about a mother.
Suddenly something moved in the bushes.
But Wu Xiaoxiao didn't notice it and said to He Chongwen, "Brother Chongwen, did I find the wrong place? There are only trees here, and water bubbles shouldn't appear in this kind of place."
"Then let's go over there and take a look?" He Chongwen was actually curious as well. Although they didn't have the luck to see the wonder of the water bubble with their own eyes, they had heard about it. Of course, they wanted to see what was so special about that piece of land.
Wu Xiaoxiao turned around and said, "Okay."
The two turned around and walked the other way.
The noise in the bushes was getting closer, but the two men were so focused on the road that they didn't hear it at all.
The next second, a reddish, slender figure flew out. It was smaller in size and failed to bite the two people in front. He Chongwen heard it when it landed. He turned around and screamed, "There's a snake! Run!"
Wu Xiaoxiao didn't even dare to look back. When she heard the snake, she screamed and ran away blindly with He Chongwen.
The snake heard the noise and moved faster.
The female educated youth on the other side heard the noise and stood up to look. Jiang Yu ran towards them holding a pair of scissors.
He Chongwen was smarter and asked Wu Xiaoxiao to move among the trees to disrupt the snake's crawling speed.
He ran to the other side.
Because the distance between them was quite far, when Jiang Yu ran over, the two had already separated and fled into the mountains.
The snake was tiny, and it was not noticeable as it moved across the ground. Jiang Yu stared at it for a long time before she was sure where it was. Then she said, "Wu Xiaoxiao, don't go forward. The snake has followed He Chongwen!"
Wu Xiaoxiao hadn't stopped yet, but the next second he stepped on empty air and fell into the trap.
He Chongwen was so scared that he was sweating, but he didn't dare to slow down at all. He picked up a branch on the road and held it tightly, wondering if he should stop to use the large amount of branches to sweep the snake away.
The snake was getting closer and closer, and He Chongwen was sweating profusely.
Jiang Yu was also approaching quickly, while the others went to Wu Xiaoxiao's side.
In the blink of an eye, a man suddenly jumped out from the side, and the machete flew out of his hand and stabbed directly into the fast-moving little snake.
He Chongwen bumped into the man and cursed out loud, "Fuck!"
Fu Biao said "Hmm?" in surprise, and looked down. He never expected that such a gentle and polite person would swear when frightened.
Jiang Yu heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the snake swaying twice on the ground and then completely silent. "What kind of snake is this? Is it poisonous?"
Wu Aiqing walked over quickly and squatted down to take a look. "It's poisonous. No one was bitten, right?"
"No, no, I couldn't tell, He Chongwen, you run quite fast." Jiang Yu also squatted down and flicked the snake's body twice.
He Chongwen was gasping for breath and was unable to speak at all.
Fu Biao helped him sit down next to him. Hearing the noisy chatter of the female educated youth over there, he asked, "What's going on over there?"
Jiang Yu cried out, and quickly patted Wu Aiqing's arm, "Go and have a look, Wu Xiaoxiao has fallen down, this is a trap, she must be injured."
"Oh oh oh." Wu Aiqing immediately stood up and ran.
He Chongwen leaned against the tree, looking at the dead snake on the ground, still feeling frightened.
"This venomous snake was brought back by Wu Ge. It can be used to make wine." Fu Biao also squatted down and reached out to touch the snake. "This snake is so small."
"Yes." Jiang Yu felt a little strange.
Over there, Wu Aiqing pushed the girls aside and looked inside. Fortunately, only her leg was pierced by the spike trap below. She was lucky that she fell straight down, so she did not suffer more serious injuries.
Wu Xiaoxiao burst into tears. He Yuanchao above was so anxious that he wanted to jump in to save her, but Xue Li stopped her and said, "Don't worry. We have to be careful. We have to remove all the thorns when we go down."
"I'll go down, you guys help me hold the rope." Wu Aiqing stepped forward quickly, put down the backpack, took out a strong hemp rope from it, tied it to a nearby tree trunk, and then carefully went down into the trap. In order to avoid the wooden thorns, his position was a little awkward, so he had to hold the hemp rope with one hand and chop the wooden thorns with the other.
Fortunately, the splinters were not made of very strong wood, so he cleaned them up quickly.
Wu Xiaoxiao's eyes were blurred with tears, and she even stopped crying, staring at Wu Aiqing intently.
Wu Aiqing moved to her side and checked her wound first. "I can't pull out this thorn now because I'm not sure where it pierced, and pulling it out might cause heavy bleeding, so I'll break it now and then carry you up. Just bear with it for a while."
Wu Xiaoxiao shivered in pain, but still gritted her teeth and nodded.
Wu Aiqing looked at her soothingly, then lay down, turned the blade of the dagger, and swung it at the long wooden spike.
