But as time went by, the court changed, the villages changed, the population moved, and a large number of merchants traveled far and wide. They discovered that there were abundant snakes in this area, and began to buy snake gall and snake skin to make various medicinal materials. Snake catchers came into being.
Gouwo Village, which is adjacent to Mang Village, is nicknamed the Snake Catching Village because of the large number of snake catchers.
At first, the people of Mang Village did not support the Snake Catching Village’s large-scale snake catching.
But when the people of the snake-catching village caught hundreds of snakes and made money first, the people of the python village were not to be outdone and joined the team of snake catchers one after another.
In order to catch highly poisonous snakes such as the Bungarus krait, the Bungarus regulus, the Pieris striata and the White-lipped Piper pit viper.
The people in the snake-catching village suggested that the people in the python village could simply set fire to the Golden Flower Goddess Temple, which was surrounded by poisonous snakes, so that the snakes would come out.
In the Python Village, most people directly agreed to the proposal of the snake-catching villagers, while others remained silent.
Only two families stood up to stop the snake catchers.
One of the families is Old Man Yu’s, and the other family has only one mute boy left in the current generation, who runs around in the mountains all day long.
Later, the Temple of the Golden Flower Goddess was destroyed and the snake disappeared.
Venomous snakes would rather be burned to death than be skinned and taken out of their gallbladders by snake catchers.
In the snake-catching village, the first batch of snake catchers made a fortune and have long since dispersed to various places.
Before the people of Bear Village could make any money, the snakes became extinct.
I don’t know how many years passed.
I don’t know when it started.
Within a hundred feet of the abandoned Golden Flower Goddess Temple, snakes suddenly prospered again and lurked there, making people outside afraid to approach and people inside afraid to leave easily.
The villagers wanted to kill a bear to make money, but they didn't catch any bears and instead got a snake.
Today, the village is surrounded by more snakes than ever before.
When people from Bear Village enter or leave the village, they need to form a group of at least ten people and be equipped with special medicine powder.
As a result, they were often bitten by snakes.
Although it is not fatal, each bite will cause pain for several days. The bitten area will be numb and swollen, which is really uncomfortable.
Over the years, I have seen the neighboring villages become slightly richer.
Their Bear Village was like a forgotten place. The boys could not marry wives from other villages, and the girls in the village could not get married either.
Once an outsider wants to come in, there is only one way out, which is death.
Those snakes were like crazy, blocking the road near Xiaoaoling and trying to eat people.
Therefore, in recent years, only exiled prisoners can come in.
But most of those people couldn't get in because they had all been fed to the snakes early on. Even if one or two came in, they couldn't get out.
Therefore, when Old Man Yu saw outsiders coming directly into the Bear Village.
It was the middle of the night and I was so scared that my eyes almost fell to the ground.
When he found out that there was indeed a group of snakes welcoming the family into the village, Old Man Yu was so excited that he burned incense to his ancestors that night and reported the good news.
He really wanted to know whether Goddess Jinhua had forgiven the people in their village.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have let the snakes escort them into the village!
Old Man Yu came to the Shen family now and wanted to confirm it.
Among these people, who can truly help their village break the curse?
