Zhong Shi sighed helplessly.

Looking at Yan Xiaosi lovingly in his eyes, he said: "You four brothers and sisters have grown up, and you all have your own ideas. It would be bad if mother took care of you in everything."

The ease with which Zhong said these words surprised Yan Xiaosi.

She thought that if she followed Tian Dazhuang to Daguniu Peak to gather medicine without telling Zhong Shi, she would be severely reprimanded by Zhong Shi, but unexpectedly, Zhong Shi not only did not teach her severely, but also understood her so easily.

"Mother, thank you, thank you for being so considerate of our siblings."

Zhong stretched out her hand, gently stroked the yellow hair on the top of her head, and said, "Xiaosi, mother will not stop you from going up the mountain to collect medicine, but you have to promise mother to pay attention to safety at all times."

This point, even if Zhong didn't remind him, Yan Xiaosi knew it himself.

How could she be stupid enough to put herself in danger in order to make money by gathering medicine, it's not worth it.

"Mother, I know that no matter what time it is, safety comes first."

Zhong Shi pursed her lips, and a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "It's good to know."

Gollum.
Yan Xiaosi's stomach suddenly let out a symphony of hunger.

The movement was a bit loud, and Mrs. Zhong could hear it clearly when she stood beside her, and said: "After walking around the mountain for so long, you must be hungry. Mother, go to the kitchen to cook. You go back to your room and rest for a while, and wait until lunch is ready." , I will ask your elder sister to call you."

Zhong Shi was about to go to the kitchen to cook, when Yan Xiaosi grabbed her.

"Mother, let's have dragon and phoenix soup for lunch today."

Zhong Shi, Yan Shuqin, Yan Shuxue, and Yan Shuyun were stunned for a moment. They didn't know what dragon and phoenix soup was. The mother and daughter had never eaten it, and they had never even heard of this dish. They were all puzzled. Looking at Yan Xiaosi.

Yan Shuqin asked curiously: "Xiaosi, what is the dragon and phoenix soup you are talking about?"

Yan Xiaosi was afraid of scaring Zhong Shi, so he didn't want to explain the three words "Longfeng Tang" so clearly, but Tian Dazhuang spoke first.

Tian Dazhuang said: "Sister Qin, the dragon and phoenix soup is actually a stew of chicken and snake. Last night, Xiaosi and I went to take a bath in the weir pond outside the village. We caught a black snake on the embankment. We hunted two pheasants in the mountain, we discussed it, and stewed two pheasants and black-headed snakes at noon today."

Hearing that black snakes were going to be stewed, Zhong Shi, Yan Shuqin, Yan Shuxue, and Yan Shuyun all changed their expressions, and the four mother and daughter were so frightened that they had goose bumps all over their bodies.

They had never eaten snake meat, and they had never seen anyone in the village eat snake meat.

With a tense expression on Zhong's face, he asked Yan Xiaosi: "Xiao Si, black snake and pheasant are stewed together, can that be eaten?"

In these years, Zhong Shi, Yan Shuqin, Yan Shuxue, and Yan Shuyun haven’t eaten anything good. Yan Xiaosi didn’t want the four of them to miss this rare delicacy, so he tried his best to praise: “Of course it’s delicious, not only delicious. Yes, and it’s still a rare delicacy, the black-headed snake is not poisonous, mother, eldest sister, second sister, third sister, you can eat it with confidence.”

Black-headed snakes are indeed not poisonous. In summer and autumn, when snakes and insects are infested, some people in the village catch black-headed snakes and sell them to snake collectors in the town.

She praised Longfeng Tang vigorously, Zhong Shi, Yan Shuqin, Yan Shuxue, and Yan Shuyun finally believed her words, but the four of them immediately showed embarrassment again.

Zhong frowned, and said, "Xiaosi, where is that black-stalked snake locked up now, who is responsible for killing the snake?"

She has never even slaughtered chickens and ducks, let alone black snakes.

After hearing Zhong's words, Yan Shuqin, Yan Shuxue, and Yan Shuyun shook their heads, expressing that they did not dare.

Tian Dazhuang was about to say that he was in charge of killing the black-stalked snake, but Yan Xiaosi patted his chest and said loudly: "I am in charge of killing the snake. Last night, I was afraid that I would come back with that black-stalked snake and scare you guys." , locked the black-snake snake in an abandoned cellar."

While talking, she glanced at Tian Dazhuang, and continued: "Brother Dazhuang, leave the two pheasants behind and go back to call Aunt Tian."

Last night, Tian Dazhuang witnessed Yan Xiaosi's fierceness when he used the black-tailed snake to scare the three brothers of the Chen family. At this moment, Yan Xiaosi said that he was responsible for killing the snake. He didn't worry about Yan Xiaosi at all, so he ordered He threw the two pheasants to Mrs. Zhong, Yan Shuqin, and Yan Shuxue to take care of them, and strode home with the bow and the hare they had hunted.

Yan Xiaosi, Zhong Shi, Yan Shuqin and the others informed that they were going to the cellar to get the black-snake snake. There are several disused cellars in Shaoyao Village. She said that, Zhong Shi, Yan Shuqin and the others did not Nothing is suspected.

Leaving the Pocao Temple, Yan Xiaosi first walked towards an abandoned cellar in the village, where no one was there, and quickly entered the space with concentration.

Worried about being discovered by Zhong and the others, after entering the space, she didn't dare to waste time, and went directly to the basement of the small western building, and found the basket in which the black-stalked snake was imprisoned.

After removing the hoe that was pressing on the basket, she looked at the black-headed snake locked inside through the gap in the basket.

Seeing this, she was startled.

The black-stalked snake was almost twice as big as yesterday, and it was coiled inside.

Bang!

Presumably Yan Xiaosi's actions disturbed the black-stalked snake inside, and the black-stalked snake suddenly stretched out and swam around inside the basket, making a clanging sound, almost toppled the basket.

Yan Xiaosi hurriedly took the hoe and pressed the basket again, then ran to the medicine rack on the first floor, took a bottle of anesthesia powder and returned it to the cellar, mixed the anesthesia powder with some rice, and then poured it through the gap above the basket. Throw in the rice to feed the black snake.

Presumably the black-stalked snake had been hungry all morning, a little hungry, stretched out the snake letter and rolled the rice that Yan Xiaosi had thrown into its mouth.

The anesthetic powder in the space was a bit strong, and the black-stalked snake became motionless after not eating much rice.

Yan Xiaosi breathed a sigh of relief, then removed the hoe that was pressing on the basket, and stretched out his hand to lift the black-tailed snake.

If it weren't for the anesthesia powder in the space, with her current weak body, she really couldn't do anything about this black-stalked snake that had absorbed the spiritual energy of the space.

She came out of the space with the black-stalked snake and ran to Tian Dazhuang's house.

In the courtyard of the Tian family, Mrs. Wang saw that Tian Dazhuang had gone out all morning and brought back a small hare. She was a little disappointed, so she pulled Tian Dazhuang and asked, "Da Zhuang, you have been out all morning, why did you only get a rabbit?" When such a little hare comes back, tell me, did you distribute the prey you caught to that boy Yan Xiaosi?"

"Brother Zhuang, have you made it clear to Aunt Tian about the dragon and phoenix soup?"

The gate of Tian's courtyard was ajar, Yan Xiaosi rushed into the courtyard with a fleshy black-stalked snake when he heard what Wang said just now.

Seeing the black-stalked snake in her hand, Mrs. Wang turned pale with fright, and hid behind Tian Dazhuang.
