Li Tiezhu's skillful movements made Chi Mu feel more and more puzzled.
He is usually in a crazy state and would never run to the back mountain for no reason.
Even if he came here often, Lame Li would never just hand over the shovel and axe to Li Tiezhu.
How could he not know that his son was born with an IQ defect and might hurt others by holding these things?
Therefore, Li Tiezhu now has such skillful movements, and was instructed by Lame Li to bring these tools to the back mountain. He must have been trained and often comes here to do these things.
“Hiss…hiss…hiss.”
Just as Chi Mu was frowning and thinking, suddenly a very long object hung upside down in front of him.
Chi Mu stopped immediately, not daring to move.
Because hanging upside down in front of him was a slender, black snake.
The scales on its body were shining, and on its triangular head you could vaguely see the bright red tongue extending and retracting.
Two green bean-sized eyes were staring fiercely at Chi Mu coldly.
Chi Mu recognized it at a glance. It was a pit viper, commonly known as the five-step snake!
Once bitten by it, due to its toxicity, the poisoned person will surely die within five steps.
Chi Mu felt creepy and stood still, not daring to move, for fear of being bitten by the big snake.
He could only watch Li Tiezhu disappear from his sight.
Chi Mu was standing there, looking like he was about to cry. He couldn't help but wonder in his heart how unlucky he was to run into a five-step snake.
——"This is a five-step snake. If you get bit, you'll croak if you take five steps."
——"If I get bitten and I stand still and refuse to take five steps, will I not die?"
——"Tsk, it's just a five-step snake. Even if it bites me, if I don't turn around and walk a few thousand steps, doesn't it still owe me a few years of life?"
——"Ahem, you know about bugs..."
——"Are you stupid? It's called the five-step snake because after being poisoned by its venom, you can only walk five steps to survive, not that you will die after walking five steps."
——"Brothers, the man upstairs is an honest man."
.......
Chi Mu looked at the five-step snake that was standing motionless in front of him, feeling so annoyed.
"Oh my god! Brother Snake, can you please leave quickly? We two won't offend snakes, and the snakes shouldn't offend us either, okay..."
The five-step snake seemed to have heard Chi Mu's inner impotence and rage, and it spit out its tongue again and moved closer to Chi Mu.
Seeing that the five-step snake had no intention of leaving, Chi Mu slowly put his hands into his trouser pockets and held the dagger.
With the 10% speed increase that the system rewarded him with, it is not impossible to chop off the snake's head in an instant.
But there is only one chance, if you make a mistake, there will be no recovery.
A snake can make billions of mistakes, but Chi Mu can only make one mistake.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, a gunshot rang out.
This also alarmed the five-step snake hanging upside down in front of Chi Mu.
It suddenly rose up and headed straight for Chi Mu's face.
“Fuck!”
Chi Mu raised his knife and chopped it on the snake's head, and he fell backwards subconsciously.
I saw a touch of bright red in the water marks on the ground caused by the rain.
The five-step snake's tongue also fell to the ground.
“Huh, huh…”
Chi Mu sat on the ground gasping for breath. He touched his face and found it was fine. He had almost been disfigured by the snake.
Without time to think, he quickly stood up from the ground and ran towards the direction where the gunshots came from.
It’s raining so heavily, and my father is probably the only hunter who can go up the mountain to hunt.
So the gunshot was definitely fired by my father!
At the same time, Chi Mu remembered that this direction was also the direction where Li Tiezhu had just disappeared.
"Oh no! Could it be that my father shot Shazhu?"
Chi Mu ran and guessed at the same time.
After running for about three or four minutes, Chi Mu found two rows of footprints and some blood on the mud.
He frowned, slowed down his pace, crouched down and quietly pushed aside the bushes in front of him.
Chi Mu saw that his father was wearing a straw raincoat, with Li Tiezhu standing beside him, and at their feet there was a little wild boar that had been shot dead.
"Uncle, are there still wild boars on this rainy day?"
“Of course there are. When it rains, many animals come out to drink water, so it’s not uncommon to encounter them.
Okay, have you brought everything? Follow me, we have found the place, let's start digging quickly to avoid being seen by others."
My father was talking to Li Tiezhu in a very cold tone.
Li Tiezhu spoke in a calm tone, without his usual silly expression, and it was obvious that he was sober now.
"Excavation? What are they going to dig?"
Chi Mu listened to the conversation between the two and was confused.
But what is clear is that the relationship between my father and Li Tiezhu is definitely not ordinary, and they often come here to dig something.
Li Tiezhu came here at the instruction of Lame Li, so what they are going to dig next may very likely reveal the secret that his father has been hiding.
——"Are father and Li Tiezhu going to dig up the body of Lin Zhang's wife?"
——"Well, it's possible. After all, after talking to Lin Zhang, father suspected that they were exposed, so he came to the back mountain in the heavy rain just to move the body of Lin Zhang's wife?"
——"Are you guys stupid? Lin Zhang said that day that only he and his father knew about this matter. How could they tell Li Tiezhu and Cripple Li?"
While the Longguo audience was guessing what his father was going to dig, Li Tiezhu had already walked into the depths of the forest with his father.
Chi Mu also followed quietly, intending to find out what was going on.
Knowing that his father had sensitive hearing, Chi Mu deliberately kept a long distance to prevent himself from being discovered by his father.
At this time, Chi Mu felt that the system was a bit weak again.
He received so many rewards, and although the rewards were all good, they helped him gain a lot of convenience in the world of ghost stories.
But Chi Mu still wanted some more substantial rewards.
For example, giving him the ability to hide his tracks so that he can hide himself perfectly in this situation.
After walking with his father and Li Tiezhu for nearly ten minutes, they finally arrived at an open space.
It is said to be an open space, but it is not really so.
Because there is a small mound of earth in the middle of this open space.
"Here it is. Give me a shovel and start digging. Take it back to your father after you dig it out. Also, send my reward as soon as possible. I need it urgently."
My father's voice was cold, without any emotion at all.
Chi Mu even doubted whether the person in front of him was really his father.
When he was at home, he never spoke to him, his mother or his younger brother in this tone.
As Li Tiezhu and his father began to dig, Chi Mu couldn't help but widen his eyes.
He finally understood what that little dirt bag was...
