Tomb Raider: The Young Captain Mojin
Chapter 23
Hearing Lisa talk about Sheming Village, Wu Xie couldn't help shivering, "Since there are snakes everywhere, why don't those villagers move away?"
Lisa said, "I have checked the relevant information. This Snake Village has existed since the early Ming Dynasty. Their ancestors moved here to escape the war. At the beginning, there were not many snakes here, but there were more and more snakes later. Get up. Probably at the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was renamed Sheming Village."
A trace of doubt rose in Wu Sihua's heart.
Could it be that there are so many poisonous snakes because the big iron tomb was built here?
Since ancient times, emperors have pursued longevity, and thus recruited many alchemists.
Those alchemists made a lot of money by making alchemy for the emperor, and built the so-called fairy palace in the deep mountains and old forests to make alchemy, consuming a lot of rare ores and elixir.
After these ores undergo chemical reactions, they will produce a large amount of toxins, thus accumulating many poisonous insects.
The large tomb that Partridge Whistle and Xiling leader Chen Yulou met in Pingshan in his previous life contained poisonous centipedes as numerous as cow hair
Anyone who is bitten by a centipede will soon turn into pus.
It even gave birth to a six-winged flying centipede, which injured many people's lives.
Even Partridge Whistle and Chen Yulou almost fell into it.
This iron man is a favorite of Genghis Khan.
Even the burial was arranged by him himself, maybe even Genghis Khan's dream of immortality would fall on him.
Lisa said that the water cave is surrounded by mist all the year round, and the seasons are like spring, and there are many poisonous snakes.
Maybe Tie Mubo'er's tomb was probably built in Genghis Khan's alchemy fairy palace.
Several people climbed over the hill all the way to the entrance of the village.
I saw a small stone tablet erected at the intersection.
The three big characters of Sheming Village are engraved on it.
In the lower right corner of the stele, there are still a few lines of small characters written.
"There are many snakes and insects in the vicinity, outsiders should be careful."
Wu Sihua and his younger brother, Poker Tank, looked at each other and said in a low voice, "Everyone, be careful, there are weird things in this village."
Sun Kaixuan curled his lips and said, "Fourth Master, it's just some poisonous snakes. Let's bring more realgar. As a modern captain of Mojin, we have plenty of means to deal with poisonous snakes and beasts."
Huba rolled his eyes at Sun Kaixuan and said, "Fourth Master is right, you better be careful, don't be careless, kid."
Maya suddenly squatted down, wiped the ground with her finger, and then put it in front of her nose to smell it. "The soil smells like meerkat urine and realgar powder. There are probably meerkats in this village."
Huba was puzzled and said, "Snake mongoose? Doesn't this thing grow in Guangdong and Fujian? How could it exist here?"
Lisa said, "There are many poisonous snakes near Sheming Village. It is not surprising that some people bring back things to deal with poisonous snakes. If there are snake mongooses in the village, we can borrow or buy them for use."
Wu Sihua suddenly said, "Although the mongoose is the nemesis of snakes and is immune to most poisonous snakes, it is too small to deal with ordinary snakes, but it is almost useless against big snakes.
The people of Sheming Village have lived here for hundreds of years, so they must have their own way of dealing with poisonous snakes.Let's go, let's go to the village and have a look."
A group of people walked while talking, and soon entered the village.
Sheming Village is not big, at most there are a hundred households.
In recent years, many young people in the village have gone out to work, and the permanent population is only two to three hundred.
Entering the village, I soon saw a small restaurant.
Three rooms, plus a kitchen, with several tables at the door.
The air in the mountains is fresh and the mountain breeze is cool.
Wu Sihua and the others sat down. Lisa and Maya walked into the restaurant and saw a middle-aged woman washing vegetables.
Seeing someone coming in, the proprietress smiled and said, "Are you here to play?"
Maya's skin is very fair, and her cheeks are slightly red, as if she has put on powder, so many people call her Xuelihong.
This girl looks like the girl next door, and her dress is much simpler than Lisa's, which makes it easy for people to feel close.
But
Only those who are familiar with Xue Lihong know how fierce and decisive this girl is in fighting, she is not as weak as her appearance at all.
Xuelihong Maya said with a smile, "Auntie, we are a group of donkey friends, and we take the wild route. I want to see Panlong Mountain."
The proprietress wiped her hands and said, "Do you want to go to Panlong Mountain? This is Panlong Mountain. Panlong Mountain has not been developed yet, and there are scattered scenic spots. Where do you want to go?"
Lisa said in an interface, "Miss Boss, we heard that the most beautiful place in Panlong Mountain is Longtou, with sea of clouds and waterfalls. I don't know if it's true or not."
"Yo Panlong Mountain is dozens of kilometers long, and it takes about two days to get there. Young people, is it worth it for you to travel so far to see the scenery?"
Maya said, "Since I'm here, I always want to see the most beautiful scenery. Madam, didn't we hear that there is a waterway very close?"
The face of the proprietress changed, "Girl, that waterway is called Panlong Mountain Poisonous Snake Cave, and no one has passed it for a long time. A few years ago, there was Guo Laomonger who could take guests on the waterway. The year before last, Guo Laomonger died of illness. No one dares to take guests on the waterway anymore.”
Wu Xie walked in suddenly and said, "Miss Boss, how old is the old mongoose Guo you're talking about?"
The proprietress smiled and said, "Old Guo is not very old, he was just over 40 years old when he died, but he looked old, when he was in his 30s, he looked like he was in his 50s, and he didn't marry a wife, so everyone called him He Lao Guo"
Wu Xie asked curiously, "Isn't it Guo Laoyou? Why is Lao Guo again?"
"Hey, Lao Guo has a big snake mongoose, which is several sizes bigger than the one in the village. It is more than one meter long, so everyone calls him Guo Lao mongoose."
Wu Xie's heart moved, "Miss Boss, is the meerkat raised by Lao Guo still there?"
"Yeah. A few days ago, I saw that guy walking on the street.
After Guo Laomon died, the big snake mongoose still lived in his dilapidated house, and came out to eat poisonous snakes every three days, which was very powerful.
People in the village say that there is a big snake mongoose, and even those powerful poisonous snakes dare not wander around in the village.
By the way, the villagers even nicknamed the big snake mongoose Brother Dameng. That guy is so fierce."
Lisa interjected, "Miss Boss, don't the meerkats grow in the south? Why do we have them here? And it sounds like there are quite a few of them."
The proprietress thought for a while and said, "This is a long story. I heard from the elders in the village that about 400 years ago, many small poisonous snakes suddenly appeared near the village, and many people were bitten to death one after another.
Those poisonous snakes are very powerful, and ordinary realgar spirits are not afraid of them at all.The people in the village tried many ways, but they failed to stop the snake disaster.
Later, a person who often went out to do small business brought back a few snake mongooses from the south and put them in the village.
Since the mongoose came into the village, those poisonous snakes have restrained a lot. "
Lisa said, "I have checked the relevant information. This Snake Village has existed since the early Ming Dynasty. Their ancestors moved here to escape the war. At the beginning, there were not many snakes here, but there were more and more snakes later. Get up. Probably at the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was renamed Sheming Village."
