He is a normal person, there is no normal person who is not afraid of snakes, only a pervert like Ah Guang, who caught snakes every day when he was young, and they were often scared when they were young.
But, also because of his ability to catch snakes with one hand, he attracted a bunch of children to surround him.
Children are prone to admiration, and find it exciting and fun. Coupled with lack of food and clothing, his skills can satisfy everyone's greed, and a bunch of children want to play with him.
Snake meat is also meat. When they were young, they used to cook snake soup in crock pots on picnics in the mountains.
Ah Guang grabbed the snake head with one hand, and with the other hand, he detoured the snake body wrapped around his arm, held it in his hand, and lifted it towards them, making them shrink back a bit, but they didn't back down.
"Bring the bamboo basket here, why are you standing there stupidly?"
"Didn't you want to admire your beauty first? You also have the most handsome posture of catching snakes."
Ye Yaodong lifted the bamboo cover on the bamboo basket and handed it to him.
"Consolation yourself? I am better than you in everything except you!"
While speaking, Ah Guang put the snake tail down on the bamboo basket first, and then threw the snake head down. Ye Yaodong quickly covered the lid with quick eyesight and hands.
"Cut, stop bragging, I'm the prettiest kid in the village! Keep going, grab some more before dark, and we can recycle the stew after we're done."
"This can be!"
"I have chickens at home!" Ah Zheng said excitedly, "When it gets dark and the chickens are back in the cage, I just go and catch one."
"Can your old lady scold you?"
"No, I have earned a lot of money this year, and my waist is straight. I can handle it all in one go, and I can kill them all!"
"Understood, just take the chicken coop away at night, just a snake and a chicken, monogamy, perfect!"
"ah?"
Ah Zheng was dumbfounded, he was just bragging.
Xiao Xiao clapped her hands and praised, "Hahaha, Dongzi is right, a snake and a chicken, monogamy, one pot a day!"
"Hey... Let me tell you, my mother can break my legs if I take the whole chicken coop away! Otherwise, I'll eat my family's today, my eldest sister's tomorrow, my second sister's the day after tomorrow, my third sister's the day after tomorrow, and my fourth sister's the day after tomorrow. They will be distributed equally, so it will be fine."
Ye Yaodong almost amused him.
"You are gnawing on the old gnawing clearly, the average distribution, the rain and the dew are evenly covered?"
People don’t understand what gnawing on the old man means, but it doesn’t affect their understanding of what he means at all, and they are all envious, talking while walking.
"You can do it!"
"Kind of planning..."
"The abacus is crackling, the risks are shared, and the food is not less. If you have more sisters, you are amazing!"
Ah Zheng was also a little proud, "I also sent fish, shrimp and crabs to their families, which is called reciprocity."
"Come on, every day dragon and phoenix soup is also greasy, and I have to change the taste occasionally. After recycling, let's fry it, fry it, fry it, boil it and stew it again, and have a whole snake feast."
"Where can I cook so many different things? It's not troublesome, just stew it in one pot..."
"Are you stupid? What is the fat man doing? You can't ask him to do it, what's the trouble? Isn't this all his work? Let's just wait and eat."
"Right…"
They chatted while walking, not at all afraid that poisonous snakes would come out.
Venomous snakes are relatively rare here, unless they come in by accident, most of them are non-venomous cauliflower snakes.
There are still many kinds of snakes called cauliflower snakes in rural areas. One is black-browed snake and the other is king snake.
Cauliflower snake is also unique to China, just like the native dog is called the Chinese pastoral dog, the cauliflower snake can also be called the Chinese pastoral snake.
Cauliflower snakes are snake-eating, and they are more flexible and powerful than ordinary snakes. They can easily kill those snakes that are smaller than cauliflower snakes.
Therefore, there is also a saying that "there are cauliflowers in one mile, but no poisonous snakes in ten miles".
"The Awakening of Insects has just passed, and it's not yet summer, so there shouldn't be so many snakes. Should we look for mouse holes?"
They wandered around, but they didn't see it again, Ye Yaodong suggested.
"It's okay, everyone come to look for it separately, it's too inefficient to gather together."
"But I don't dare to catch it, can I go with you?" Ah Zheng said cowardly.
Ah Guang looked at him contemptuously, "Okay, let's look for it two by two, and if you find it, just tell me, and I'll catch it later."
"Okay, okay, then please Brother Guangzi." Xiaoxiao joked.
Ye Yaodong also handed the bamboo basket that caught the snake to Ah Zheng, "Take it!"
Ah Zheng hesitated, "Can't you give me another empty one?"
"No, I'm trying to exercise your guts. Take it, you have a master around you, so what are you afraid of? We two weak chickens need more empty space."
"All right."
Two-by-two heads to find efficiency savings.
The weather has just warmed up now, and the daytime temperature is not that high or hot. The cauliflower snake basically does not leave the cave too far, and mainly hunts around the caves in the mountains.
Searching for mouse holes with a purpose still has some gains.
No, Ye Yaodong and Xiaogang climbed up a **** and walked into a mountain road on the edge, just in time to see another cauliflower snake appeared in the grass not far away, and this one looked quite big, it seemed to be 1.7 meters long.
"Ah Guang, Ah Guang, hurry up, there is a situation..."
There was no one else on the surrounding hillsides, only a few of them, and they were not far away. With a shout, Ah Guang and Ah Zheng rushed over immediately.
And the snake didn't know if it heard the movement from their side, so it vomited out the lump in its belly, and then moved quickly to escape.
Ye Yaodong and Xiao Xiao didn't care to look at the black mass it spit out, and immediately stretched out their long sticks to prevent it from leaving.
In order to prevent it from hitting the snake on the stick, two people wrapped their sticks. They used each other.
Ah Guang jumped down a hill and ran over quickly, "Caught another one, this one is bigger."
It may be that the big guy in his stomach just vomited out, and it was tortured under their sticks for a while. The snake didn't look that flexible, and Ah Guang just picked it up and grabbed it.
Ye Yaodong looked at his quick movements and was stunned, "Seeing how easy it is for you to catch, I almost thought I could do it myself!"
"What's so difficult about this, why don't you try? This is for you to grab?"
He waved his hands again and again, "Forget it! Anyway, I have you, a good brother for a lifetime!"
"cut ~"
"Put it in quickly."
Ah Zheng immediately hid the bamboo basket in his hand behind his back, "Put it in Dongzi's bamboo basket, and the two of them will fight together. The big snake will eat the small snake later, so it's useless to catch it."
"Generally not, if you want to eat, you will eat poisonous snakes, unless you are extremely hungry."
"That's where you are too! Distribute evenly!"
Ye Yaodong glanced at him speechlessly, "You are affecting my efficiency in finding snakes, hurry up, and I won't take you to do good things at night if you talk too much."
"Is this threatening me too?"
Ah Guang urged: "Hurry up, what are the ink stains? Anyway, they have to be loaded. You fill it up here first, and then put it in Dongzi's place."
People have to bow their heads under the eaves, who makes the two of them a family, he is an outsider, 2 to 1, and he can't speak loudly, shit!
Ah Zheng muttered a few words, quickly lifted the lid, and handed the bamboo basket to him, asking him to put the snake in.
Ye Yaodong poked the side with a stick, and the cauliflower snake spit out a black mass just now.
"It's really a mouse."
"Looking wet, a little disgusting."
"This is what the snake just spit out."
"Evil~"
"If you catch it later and let it digest naturally, maybe you can grow some meat." Ye Yaodong said surprisingly, regardless of the feelings of others.
"Evil~ You are so disgusting that I don't even want to eat it."
"That's just right, I can leave a few more bites of meat for everyone to share."
They shook their shoulders in disgust, and quickly moved away from him.
Immediately afterwards, they searched separately.
The weather has just warmed up, and the range of snake activities is not wide. It is relatively easy to find around the mountain.
When it was dark, they found three more, but they walked a little farther.
"Next time, make a few snake traps and put them on the mountain, to ensure that there will be harvest every day, and it will save trouble, and it will come in handy at critical times."
"Let's talk about it next time, let's finish today's work first. It's getting dark, so I guess I have to work in the dark."
"I can make more cages. I saw a pheasant and a hare just now, but I didn't catch them. It's a pity..."
"Ahh... deer! There is a deer!" Suddenly, Ah Zheng screamed.
The others turned their heads in surprise, and saw a yellow figure jumping over.
"Damn it, there are really deer!"
"Hurry up... catch up and see..."
The four of them chased after them excitedly, but their 8 legs couldn't outrun the muntjac's four legs. It ran uphill and downhill for a few steps, and then left them out of sight.
"Oh, it's a pity, I didn't bring a soil gun."
Ah Guang also regretted that he had an earthen gun at home, and thought he would catch a snake, so he didn’t bring it with him.
"Wait, that's not right, listen to it, there seems to be some other sound?" Ye Yaodong pricked up his ears, "It seems to be meowing?"
"Wild cats? Stray cats are everywhere, and there are quite a lot of noises on the mountain at night." Ah Zheng said casually, holding the bamboo basket carefully in his hand.
Ah Guang and Xiaoxiao held flashlights in their hands and shone everywhere. It was dark and the light was poor, and the range of vision was limited. They took a look around and found nothing.
However, when they continued to walk two meters forward, they heard a clearer cat meowing, and the flashlight also shone on the corner of the downhill at the same time.
Ah Guang, who was walking ahead, stopped, took a closer look, and frowned to identify carefully.
Everyone saw that he didn't leave, and the beam of the flashlight didn't move, and they also turned their gazes to the spot where the flashlight stayed.
"Grass, it's not a stray cat, it's an ocelot!"
"Huh? Ocelot?"
"Ocelot?"
