When his parents asked about it, the bachelor son shook his head hurriedly, almost to the point of having cramps in his head.
As for the reason, he would never tell you even if you beat him to death.
At this time, Zhou Ying had already pushed Liu Liang to the foot of the mountain. Liu Liang thought that they came early, but after arriving, Liu Liang felt a little slapped in the face, because there were many people who had the same idea as Zhou Ying, and some had arrived earlier than them.
Others had already picked up two large bundles of firewood. Zhou Ying's face puffed up with anger, and she hurried to pick up firewood, fearing that more people would come and pick up all the firewood. Otherwise, she would not be able to pick up two bundles of firewood by the afternoon.
One bundle is for their family, and the other bundle is naturally for Liu Liang.
She knew that when she was bitten by a snake and was almost dying, the village doctor said she was beyond saving, but it was Sister Liu who saved her. She had nothing to repay Sister Liu with, so she could only send her some firewood so that she could have a warm winter.
Zhou Ying thought that Lian had been picking up firewood since he was a child, and he didn't know how many years he had been doing so.
So now she was very fast, and in a short while, she had picked up a small bundle.
Liu Jing pulled the quilt covering her legs up a little, still holding the thermos in her arms, feeling very warm. She looked at the mountain in front of her. The mountain was full of trees. No wonder the people in the village all burned firewood, as if their firewood would never run out.
Firewood is needed for cooking and heating the kang.
It turned out that it was backed by this big mountain. There were so many trees on the mountain that there really was endless firewood. Just after a night of wind, so many branches had fallen at the foot of the mountain. If we went into the mountain again, we would have even more firewood.
Liu Jing pushed the wheelchair forward and put her hand on a tree. There were traces of an axe on the tree. It had been chopped many times, but perhaps because it was too difficult to chop later, the tree was not cut through. The person who chopped the tree later might have gotten tired of it, and the tree survived.
Liu Jing planned to wait until there were fewer people here and then cut down the tree. She had an axe in her ring. With such great strength, she was really talented in cutting down trees.
She pushed away the wheelchair and looked up and down at the tree. Well, this tree was quite big. Just like Zhou Ying said, as long as they cut down the tree, the family would have firewood for the whole winter. Zhou Ying could stay at home peacefully and wouldn't have to think about coming over to collect firewood every day.
Anyway, she is very optimistic about this tree.
After pulling the quilt tightly, Liu Jing was about to leave when she suddenly heard a sound.
"hiss……"
Hissing...
It sounded like a snake crawling.
"Wow……"
Suddenly, a child's cry was heard, and the others were stunned when they saw it.
Not far away, I saw a child of five or six years old holding a bundle of firewood in his arms, crying with tears and snot running down his face. He was so scared that his face turned pale and his body was trembling. Less than a meter away from him, a brightly colored snake was coiled on the ground, with its head raised high and spitting out its tongue.
Those cold vertical pupils really give people goose bumps.
"That one!"
Zhou Ying also hugged the firewood tightly, as if this could give her a sense of security.
"That's the one that bit me."
At this time, no matter adults or children, they were all frightened and dared not move, even their breathing seemed to have stopped. The village was so small, and everyone in the village, big and small, knew about Zhou Ying being bitten by a snake.
There were even many parents who taught their children to be careful when going out and not to encounter the poisonous snake, which almost bit Zhou Ying to death.
Now the snake appeared here and was in an attacking state, scaring the half-grown child so much that he couldn't even cry.
Liu Liang took out a brick. Now everyone was paying attention to the snake, so naturally no one noticed her, and of course no one could notice the big brick that appeared out of thin air in her hand.
With a bang, Liu Liang threw the brick directly, and it hit the snake with incredible accuracy, hitting it from the head, and instantly flattened the snake.
Of course, they were all killed. With Liu Liang's strength and the brick, it would be strange if the snake didn't die. It was almost smashed into a layer of skin. How could it not be dead?
Liu Jing clapped her hands, pushed the wheelchair over, picked up the brick and threw it aside, then picked up the dead snake.
She shook the dead snake in her hand, and it was indeed dead. She pinched the snake's body with two fingers and flattened it.
Those who die like this can never die again.
She looked up and saw that the child was still standing there in shock, with water dripping down his trouser legs.
I was scared to death.
"fine."
Liu Jing reached out and touched the boy's little head. Although the child was dirty, he was still very cute. He knew how to do housework at such a young age. Unlike her younger brother, who was now nine years old and still did nothing when he got home.
It is true that children from poor families have to grow up early.
"Take a good look at it," she said, shaking the snake in her hand.
"It's dead. It won't hurt you. Gather the firewood and go home quickly. By the way."
She felt in her pocket, took out a piece of chocolate and put it in the child's hand.
"Take it and eat it."
The child has a pair of big eyes with distinct black and white, which really makes people want to pinch his little face. Although he is skinny and doesn't have much meat, human babies are still cute.
The child held the piece of chocolate tightly in his little hand, his mouth was flat, and tears were hanging on his eyelashes, refusing to fall.
Then an older child came over and hugged the child.
Liu Liang wrapped the snakes in her hands together, tied a knot around the snakes, and threw them into the woods.
Well, she looked at her hands and they were really dirty. She wanted a place to wash her hands, and preferably disinfect them.
Forget it, there was no place for her to wash her hands here. Reluctantly, she took out a piece of wet wipes and wiped her hands again and again, and finally wiped them three times in a row. She even took a piece of disinfectant wipes. Only then did she feel that her hands were clean, and of course there was no smell. She felt much more comfortable. But after she went back, she still had to wash her hands several more times. They were really too dirty, with all that sticky stuff.
Although she is not afraid and has caught quite a few of them, even now she still doesn't like this kind of thing and will not eat it.
Zhou Ying finally reacted. She dropped the firewood in her hand, ran over, grabbed Liu Liang's hand and looked around for a long time, thinking that Liu Liang had been bitten by a snake.
