After digging up the golden thread lotus, Old Man Shen also found some other good medicinal herbs. This trip can be said to be quite fruitful!
When the two bamboo baskets were full, Old Man Shen decided to go home. Seeing Fubao squatting on the ground, digging a small mushroom, Old Man Shen happily picked her up and rubbed her little face, "My dear, Grandpa has collected more herbs this time than he did in the previous half a month. It must be because you are by Grandpa's side and bring him good luck. Thanks to you!"
Shen Zhile pouted and deliberately pretended to be unhappy, "Grandpa, why don't you say it's because I'm by your side?"
Old man Shen looked at him with disdain and said, "It has nothing to do with you. What can you do, kid? I should be thankful that you don't cause me any trouble!" In his opinion, girls are well-behaved and cute, while boys are naughty and mischievous.
Shen Zhile, "..." Fubao doesn't know anything!
But even if grandpa favors Fubao, he has no objection and thinks it is reasonable.
Fubao is not only the youngest child, but also the only girl. Naturally, everyone in the family loves her the most, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Old man Shen held Fubao in one hand and pulled Shen Zhile in the other, and returned along the same path. It was getting late, and it was time to go back for lunch. We couldn't let the child go hungry.
Not long after walking, Fubao suddenly saw a familiar figure under a big tree.
She blinked and immediately recognized him as the little boy she had seen before, the one who gave her wild chrysanthemums!
He was also digging mushrooms. After he dug a few, a black and white snake suddenly emerged from under the tree, half of its body stood up, and it spat out its scarlet tongue at him, as if it was going to rush up and bite him in the next second!
Fubao was shocked. The snake looked so scary, it must be poisonous. If he got bitten, it would be troublesome!
Old Man Shen also saw the snake and recognized it as a highly venomous coral snake. It was very ferocious and a bite from it could kill a person. He was shocked and quickly shouted, "Kid, be careful! Don't move!"
The little boy seemed not to hear anything and there was no fear on his face. Instead, he stared straight at the snake, as if he was confronting it.
Old Man Shen quickly took out the snake repellent he carried with him. It was a mixture of realgar powder and sulfur powder. Snakes are most afraid of this stuff.
He was about to rush over to spray the medicine, but he saw the little boy glaring at the snake. There seemed to be a dark red light in his eyes, which was cold!
The snake paused at first, then turned around as if frightened and ran away, running faster than anything else.
Old man Shen, "..."
What's going on?
This coral snake had clearly assumed an attacking posture and was ready to bite at any time, so why did it run away after being glared at by the little boy?
He had never seen such a cowardly snake before! The medicine hadn't even been sprayed yet, and it ran away?
The little boy calmly put the last mushroom into the backpack, then clapped his hands and stood up.
"Kid, why are you here alone? It's very dangerous here, you know? Don't come here without an adult next time!" Old man Shen warned seriously. After all, it was too thrilling just now.
"Oh." The little boy responded nonchalantly, then walked to Fubao and handed her a bunch of freshly picked wild flowers in the bamboo basket, "Here you go!"
Fubao, "..." What's the point of this mortal boy giving her flowers every time they meet?
