Chapter 77 Fear

Han Youran forced herself to look at the snake in her hand. She was relieved to see that she was indeed holding the snake's head and was not bitten.

She lost her strength instantly, her hands loosened, and she fell from the window, sitting paralyzed on the ground. There was nothing she could do. Her hands and feet were weak and she had no strength to move.

Han Youran said with a trembling voice: "The snake came out of that cloth bag. You use that bag to hold it. Be careful when you take the bag. I'm afraid there are more inside."

Xia Zhizhi used a stick to dig into the cloth bag and made sure there was no snake inside. Then she picked up the bag and put the snake in her hand into it.

Jiang Xiurong watched from a distance and thought, well, at least the stick was put to use, and it was worth it that he had gone through the trouble to send it over.

Then she caught a few other snakes that had escaped the net and stuffed them into the cloth bag. After catching the first one, the others were not so thrilling. In fact, as long as you are not afraid, these things are easier to catch than fish.

All the snakes visible to the naked eye in the yard had been caught, and only then did Jiang Xiurong dare to walk over and help Han Youran up.

Han Youran took two deep breaths, picked up the stick that Xia Zhizhi had thrown on the ground, and started tapping it around the yard with his legs limp.

She quickly searched to see if there were any snakes that had escaped. She didn't want to step on a snake when she went to the toilet in the middle of the night.

After searching for a while and not finding anything else, Han Youran breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, it was Xia Zhizhi who did it. As long as she wanted, she could catch not only animals as big as snakes but even ants.

There is only one left.

Xia Zhizhi stood under the pile of firewood and stared at Wang Lizhen.

"You come down first."

"There are snakes down there, I don't dare." Wang Lizhen answered tremblingly.

"You're holding the firewood down, and I can't grab it."

"I dare not go down unless you catch me..."

"I can't catch you if you don't get off."

"I can't get off unless you catch me..."

It's a vicious cycle, right?

Xia Zhizhi: ...

"Why don't you stay there first, and when the snake comes out, call me and I'll catch it."

"No." Wang Lizhen cried again: "I dare not, I'm afraid."

"Don't be afraid, I'm watching here. Don't you encounter snakes at work every day?" Xia Zhizhi was a little helpless.

"I just looked at it from a distance and the snake ran away by itself. How could that be possible?" Wang Lizhen said aggrievedly.

There are not as many snakes in the Northeast as in the South. Normally, everyone goes to the fields in groups to work. The snakes would run away when they heard the noise. The ones that didn't run away were caught by quick hands and eyes, so it was not their turn.

Han Youran and Jiang Xiurong could understand Wang Lizhen's feelings, after all, their legs were still weak.

Han Youran said, "Come over here a little. Xiurong and I will move a stool over here and put it here. You can get down from here."

"Okay..." Wang Lizhen looked at Han Youran's face and felt a little uncomfortable, but she was too afraid of snakes, so she nodded aggrievedly.

After Wang Lizhen came down from the pile of firewood, Xia Zhizhi stirred the fire, caught the last snake, tied the cloth bag tightly with a rope, and then threw the bag away.

The poor bag of snakes turned 360 degrees in the air for several times, and then fell to the ground with a bang, its life or death unknown.

She turned to look at Han Youran, her mouth twitched, and she began to howl: "Sister Youran, that snake is so scary, I'm scared, wuwuwuwuwu!"

After saying that, she threw herself into Han Youran's arms. Han Youran quickly reached out to embrace her, stroking her little head and comforting her, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, you caught me..."

What a weak, pitiful and helpless little girl! Otherwise, out of kindness, how could she muster up the courage to catch the snake even though she was so afraid of it?

Han Youran was particularly moved.

Although she had a father and a mother after she traveled through time, and the whole family took good care of her, she was unable to fit in.

After all, all the kindness of the whole family is directed towards the girl who traveled through time.

Although the time travel was involuntary, she still felt like a thief who stole a life that did not belong to her.

It's because she has a higher moral standard that she feels guilty. If it were Xia Zhizhi, she wouldn't have even thought about it once.

Moreover, Han Youran had a very happy family in her previous life, and she can't forget her family in her previous life.

That's why I hid in the countryside.

When I arrived in the countryside, I saw that I got along pretty well with everyone, but in fact, I never really accepted anyone in my heart and just treated them as casual acquaintances.

So how could she not be moved when she saw Xia Zhizhi risking her life to help her catch the snake?

After all, Xia Zhizhi was nice to her simply because she was her, without any strings attached.

Han Youran even felt a little guilty.

After all, although she seemed to be very kind and caring towards Xia Zhizhi on weekdays, in fact, they were just ordinary roommates, and Xia Zhizhi did not mean much to her.

Whenever Xia Zhizhi said she would protect her, she would just treat it as a joke and would just go along with Xia Zhizhi's words to coax her. After all, no normal person would dislike a girl with a sweet mouth.

But she never expected Xia Zhizhi could really do this for her.

If you put yourself in her shoes, given how scared she is of snakes, there is no way she would help someone catch a snake with her bare hands.

Han Youran's mind was full of thoughts, but she never expected that Xia Zhizhi was actually not afraid of snakes. She was the kind that could be eaten by cutting off the head and tail.

If this was a high-level mutant snake, let alone Han Youran, even if the male and female protagonists and the Xia family were all hung up on it, she would never look back.

We only have one life.

Han Youran touched her head and said, "Why are you so stupid? That's a poisonous snake."

"I said I would protect you." She howled and said, "Fortunately you and Sister Xiurong are fine, otherwise I would feel so sad, wuwuwu..."

Wang Lizhen was originally moved, but when she heard her say this, she stood aside and rolled her eyes. Am I not a human being?

Jiang Xiurong also comforted her: "Luckily we have Zhizhi here, our Zhizhi is the best!"

If a little girl acts coquettishly and cutely in front of gay men all day long, especially if her boyfriend is her own, she is definitely a green tea bitch.

But if her target is a lesbian, even if the emperor comes, the girl is naturally innocent, cute, kind and innocent.

Especially since she has the sickness debuff stacking on top of it.

Han Youran hugged her and coaxed her for a long time, then she remembered that she had just touched the snake with her paw.

I got goosebumps all over my body immediately.

Han Youran went to get a basin of water, and Jiang Xiurong took out her own fragrant soap. The two of them washed her hands several times. Han Youran even wanted to rub her paws with loofah pulp, but seeing how pitifully she was crying, he let her go.

Xia Zhizhi covered her wrinkled hands and asked, "Who was the wicked one who put that bag of snakes in our yard?"

Han Youran and Wang Lizhen also looked puzzled.

Even if some of them occasionally say a few words to others, it wouldn't be to the point of releasing snakes to bite them to death, right?
