Chapter 396: The Person Died
Ye Xiaomei was stunned. Didn’t the snakes all leave?
Li Dayun's face darkened at this moment, and he curled his lips and sneered: "Something will happen sooner or later."
Ye Xiaomei subconsciously looked at Li Dayun. It was obvious that there was something else behind what he said.
After the meal, all the workers dispersed. After listening to Zhao Mei talking about Li Dayun's past, Ye Xiaomei finally understood why he mocked the snake bite incident so much.
Shang Zhen interrupted while eating his meal: "Then the one who should be punished is the one named Liu Zhihua."
Zhao Mei sighed. People who have experienced this always believe in the saying, "Good people don't live long, but bad things happen for thousands of years. This is exactly what Xu said."
Ye Xiaomei did not interrupt. What happened to her was more bizarre than anything else. How could she not accept it?
But she couldn't understand why another biting incident happened after she sent Dabai away and the little snakes and the male snake were also gone?
After dinner, Ye Xiaomei took Shang Zhen to the east of the village in the afternoon.
Who would have thought that after this appearance, the villagers who had gathered together to watch the excitement moved away as if they had seen a ghost, and some even secretly left the scene with fear in their eyes.
From what they said, it was Niu Peng, the son of Marshal Niu, who was bitten pretty badly on the crotch while taking a nap. Fortunately, the species of spotted snake was non-venomous, otherwise he would have lost his life.
At this time, he had already been sent to the county hospital by Murakami's people.
Shang Zhen subconsciously covered his mouth, looking like he wanted to laugh but felt bad: "Xiao Mei, this is too unlucky, you bite anywhere you want."
"Yes." Ye Xiaomei nodded and squatted at the entrance of the snake cave to look inside. Was it the male spotted snake that came back?
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a shout from behind.
"What are you all doing here? Go away."
Ye Xiaomei looked back and saw a 30-year-old young man with a flat head, holding a briefcase under his armpit and shouting impatiently with a cigarette in his mouth. The dozen or so people behind him were holding nets, shovels, and some were holding a chicken.
"You guys, go catch some snakes. Sanzi, take a few people and look around. Kill any snakes you see. I'll have snake soup tonight."
Liu Zhihua took a deep puff of smoke, raised his chin, and directed the work of several people.
Ye Xiaomei instinctively thought that this person might be Liu Zhihua, the contractor in charge of the village east construction project.
He watched other villagers being chased away, but he turned back every three steps and wanted to continue eating melons.
Then the bald young man named Sanzi picked up the half-dead chicken, tied it with a rope and placed it less than half a meter away from the snake hole. It seemed that he was trying to lure the snake out of the hole.
Ye Xiaomei noticed at a glance that the comb of the chicken had turned black, and it was obvious that the chicken had been fed poison.
Even Shang Zhen noticed it: "Xiao Mei, look at that chicken, its eyeballs are almost closed. It must be poisoned."
At this moment, Liu Zhihua noticed with interest that Ye Xiaomei and the other person had not left yet.
He looks quite fashionable in his outfit, a space suit, jeans, and Warrior sneakers. He looks pretty handsome:
"Which team are you on?"
Ye Xiaomei's eyes never left the man who held up the big net. The other five or six people were searching everywhere on the nearby residential land, knocking on the brick piles, moving the stone nests, and looking for snakes with sticks in hand.
"Team one."
"Oh, the one in the west of the village, the progress of your house is definitely not as fast as mine."
Liu Zhihua subtly wanted to belittle Li Dayun. He snorted and stubbed out his cigarette, adding: "Li Dayun's family is very superstitious. They will never start construction without an auspicious day."
Ye Xiaomei suddenly added: "Have you never believed that animals have spirits?"
Liu Zhihua's pupils shrank, and the mocking smile on his lips froze:
"Who are you……"
Shang Zhen folded his arms like a monkey, following behind a few people and watching the excitement, asking from time to time:
"Brother, can you find it by searching like this?"
Seeing his expression suddenly change, Ye Xiaomei introduced herself without hesitation.
As expected, Liu Zhihua was shocked: "Are you Ye Xiaomei?"
He found out the resident who took the snake away yesterday and called the police, but the matter was forgotten today. He never expected that it was done by such a young and beautiful girl.
"Yeah, not bad."
Ye Xiaomei nodded and stretched her neck to watch those people searching through nooks and crannies for snakes.
Liu Zhihua subconsciously took two steps back. He really didn't believe in evil, but the villagers had seen with their own eyes that Ye Xiaomei took away the big white snake.
"You...you can lead a snake? How do you make the snake so obedient?" Liu Zhihua stuttered a little, but more than a dozen people looked for it but couldn't find any trace of the snake.
Moreover, the chicken placed at the entrance of the hole was now drooping with its head drooping and semen flowing out of its pointed beak. It was obvious that it was dying.
"Keep it a secret." Ye Xiaomei clenched her fists slightly, and the cry for help left in Dabai's heart echoed in her mind.
Humans and animals coexist in this world. Who says that the whole world is exclusively human territory? Besides, they originally have nothing to do with each other, so why must we kill them all?
And there is Liu Zhihua in front of him. If he had half the conscience and awe of Li Dayun, he would not have to kill them all. Thinking of this, Ye Xiaomei wanted to help Li Dayun more and more.
Liu Zhihua's mouth twitched a few times: "I was thinking of asking you to come out and lure the snake out. I can't do anything like this. What if it runs out and hurts other people in your village?"
Ye Xiaomei looked at Liu Zhihua as if he was an idiot. To be honest, he had a pointed face and his eyes moved left and right as if they couldn't locate their position. People like him would be careless in what they said and did:
"If you don't catch them, they will go away on their own."
Liu Zhihua was obviously impatient after hearing this. He frowned and said with disgust: "Those things are completely inhumane. If they wanted to leave, they would have left long ago." He didn't believe this.
Seeing that the time was right, Ye Xiaomei called out Shang Zhen.
The two left one after another.
Liu Zhihua looked at her from behind and let out a long sigh: "Wow, this is really amazing. Where did this girl learn this skill? She can actually make a cold-blooded animal obey her."
Shang Zhen was so anxious that he turned back every three steps: "Xiao Mei, why are you leaving? The snake that bit me is most likely the husband of the white snake you mentioned."
"I know." Ye Xiaomei looked back. They wouldn't be able to find any snakes during the day.
When she was talking to Liu Zhihua just now, she actually had some connection with the spotted snake, and the other party could hear the sound coming from her heart.
In fact, Ye Xiaomei didn't say anything, just told it not to come out, chickens are poisonous, and wait until night, then she would take the spotted snake away. She couldn't do such a thing during the day again. Although the feeling of being treated as an alien could be ignored, it was not a good thing to cause panic among the public.
But just as Ye Xiaomei was walking from the east end of the village to the west end, she met several motorcycles from the fire department on the road.
They whizzed by, carrying net bags, cables, and forks in their vehicles, which were obviously tools for catching snakes.
Ye Xiaomei was stunned for a moment, then she quickly responded and shouted, "Brother, what are you guys doing here?"
The motorcycle made a lot of noise, and Ye Xiaomei had to shout several times before she was heard.
The leader was a middle-aged man. He straightened his uniform and said righteously:
"Someone called the police and reported that a snake had bitten someone to death. We came here to catch the snake to ensure the safety of the people."
Ye Xiaomei and Shang Zhen suddenly looked at each other and said in unison:
"Dead?"
"Yes, he died. He was taken to the county hospital and died instantly as soon as the serum was injected into his body."
