Chapter 240 There are many snakes nearby today
The two of them had breakfast and then checked the house and yard.
Gu Luan took out several large bags of medicine powder from the space and sprinkled them all around the yard and the wooden house.
She hates snakes and doesn't want to see even one.
If you listen carefully, you can hear the sound of a snake crawling in the grass outside.
Gu Luan felt sick at the thought of a bunch of snakes crawling past her door.
Fortunately, this group of snakes were not looking for her, otherwise she really wanted to take out the explosives and blow them all up.
Gu Luan stayed in the yard the whole day, and as for Yu Dongran, no sound was heard for the time being.
As night falls, the sky is dotted with gem-like stars.
Each star is very bright, twinkling as if they are whispering to each other.
Gu Luan really likes the night view of the island.
The moon and stars here are exceptionally bright, and the whole sky looks like a galaxy, dreamy and magical.
Gu Luan and Jiang Xian sat in the pavilion, with some island fruits on the table.
Unless he was at home, Gu Luan would never put anything out of the ordinary.
Not even in the yard.
Biting a red fruit that the Monkey King had exchanged with her, Gu Luan looked up at the starry sky.
Jiang Xian sat beside her, let her head rest on his shoulder, and looked at the night sky with her.
They enjoyed this quiet scene, not being disturbed by anyone, just the two of them.
“There seem to be more snakes at night.”
Gu Luan sat up straight and looked outside the yard.
She and Jiang Xian have good hearing, especially at night.
During the day, her hearing is affected by the birdsong and other sounds.
There was no sound now, but Gu Luan could hear it clearly.
Because she sprinkled twice as much powder, no snakes dared to come in again.
This also made Gu Luan feel a lot more at ease.
"Um!"
Jiang Xian also heard it, but didn't care.
On Yu Dongran's site, more than twenty wooden houses were built around it, with a large open space in the middle.
Yu Dongran’s house was in the center, and on the left and right were the wooden houses of the people he trusted the most.
Most people stayed in the central open space, feasting around a campfire, on which many animals were roasting.
The women made snake soup for the men in silence.
They had numb expressions and were occasionally dragged into the house by men.
They just want to escape from this kind of life.
Shen Jiaojiao walked out of the wooden house with unsteady steps, followed by a man with a satisfied expression.
The man hugged Shen Jiaojiao and kissed her on the face.
Shen Jiaojiao concealed her disgust and smiled at the man, "Hateful."
Several women looked over secretly and quickly lowered their heads.
The man hugged Shen Jiaojiao and walked to the fire, took out a large piece of meat and threw it to her.
Shen Jiaojiao took it and devoured it.
The other men watched and laughed.
In their minds, these women are toys that can be toyed with at will.
Yu Dongran sat under the eaves, eating meat and drinking wine.
Hua Meng stayed quietly beside him.
The sounds of talking and laughing became more and more obvious in the darkness, masking all other sounds.
Near the wooden house, large groups of snakes slowly gathered. They swam over from all over the island during the day.
The snakes did not act immediately; they were waiting for night to come.
"Boss, what are you thinking about?"
Yu Dongran didn't say anything the whole night, so Hua Meng asked worriedly.
Yu Dongran took a sip of beer and said, "Nothing."
He just felt inexplicably uneasy today, as if something was going to happen.
"The snake soup will be ready soon. I'll bring it to you later."
Hua Meng knew that Yu Dongran was fine, so he said relaxedly.
"Why did you catch so many snakes today?"
Yu Dongran spent the day doing other things as he planned his next move.
After Hua Meng and others came back, he found that they had caught an unusually large number of snakes today.
"I don't know why, but there are a lot of snakes around here today."
Hua Meng said casually, not taking the matter to heart.
He wished there were more snakes so that he could catch them all and then he wouldn't have to worry about anything.
Although they received a lot of supplies every day, the population was also large, so even if they ate as much as they wanted, they could only eat until they were 60% to 70% full.
Yu Dongran paused holding the beer can and looked at Hua Meng.
His eyelids twitched and he finally realized what was unsettling him.
Why do so many snakes appear out of nowhere?
"Ah, where did the snake come from?"
A man who was about to urinate in the corner of the cabin suddenly shouted.
Everyone looked up and saw that the man had fallen to the ground with snakes crawling all over his body.
He was bitten all over by snakes, and the snakes turned over and held the man tightly.
Some snakes climbed directly onto the man's face, opened their mouths wide, and bit the man's eyes.
The man screamed in pain and raised his arm, which was covered with snakes, to call for help.
The color of his body turned blue-gray in an instant, which was a sign of systemic poisoning.
The man lost his life before he could say anything, his eyes widened in unwillingness.
Everyone was completely panicked when they saw this scene and retreated together.
The beer can in Yu Dongran's hand fell to the ground, and Hua Meng quickly protected him, "Boss, let's go."
"Oh, so many snakes."
A woman screamed and subconsciously ran into the wooden house.
As soon as they ran in, they ran out again because there were many snakes in the cabin.
A man wanted to run away, but was horrified to find that the group of snakes had surrounded the entire area without him knowing when.
"Go, go quickly, there are so many snakes."
"Oh my god, save me, save me quickly."
The crowd panicked and ran around.
Hua Meng and several other men protected Yu Dongran and tried to escape.
Wherever they went, there were snakes everywhere.
The group of snakes stood up and made a hissing sound from their mouths.
In the darkness, all kinds of venomous and non-venomous snakes made attacking gestures, locking down anyone who tried to escape.
"Take a torch."
Yu Dongran was terrified. He tried to calm himself and gave stern orders to his men.
Hua Meng and several other men were the first to react. They walked to the fire, pulled out some firewood and threw it at the group of snakes.
Hua Meng was more powerful than the others. He picked up a thick piece of wood and pushed the fire apart to block the group of snakes.
More than a dozen men held torches in their hands, bending slightly and waving them.
The group of snakes were a little scared and swam to the side subconsciously.
Seeing an opportunity, Hua Meng took Yu Dongran and ran out first.
Yu Dongran didn't dare to slow down, he could feel that he was about to be surrounded by snakes.
This group of snakes were ferocious and terrifying, as if they were targeting them. Even if they ran away, they would still be chased by them.
A group of men ran out behind Yu Dongran, and a few of them who ran slowly were directly surrounded by the snakes.
"Boss, save me, save us."
Several men surrounded by snakes asked Yu Dongran for help.
Yu Dongran looked back and gritted his teeth, "Save him."
He has already lost a lot of people. He can ignore the women, but he cannot lose more men.
He wanted to fight against Gu Luan and the others, and one less person would reduce his own military strength.
Hua Meng and his men loyal to Yu Dongran turned around to rescue people.
After considering it, the rest of the people followed suit.
Several men were rescued, but they all had bite wounds on their bodies.
Women are luckier, and for some reason, they are rarely attacked by these snakes.
Ninety percent of these snakes ran to attack Yu Dongran and his group.
