Sambo, don’t let go!

Seeing that Sanbao was too scared to hold the snake's neck, and the snake's head was slowly breaking free, Qin Xiaoxiao had to stretch out her little hand to help him tighten the snake's neck. The cold and rough touch made her shiver.

"Xiaoxiao, I'm afraid..." Sanbao cried with tears and snot all over his face. He couldn't pinch the snake's neck with his little hands. His right hand, which was tightly entangled by the snake, also began to turn blue. This was caused by poor blood flow.

.

Don't be afraid, Sanbao is not afraid, we can just go home. Qin Xiaoxiao freed up a hand to touch his little cousin's head and led him quickly home.

This white-flowered snake, which was as thick as an adult's thumb, struggled so hard that young Qin Xiaoxiao could hardly hold its neck.

"Xiaoxiao, Sanbao, wait for us."

Seeing that the siblings were about to go home, the children were afraid of digging up snakes, so they hurriedly picked up their small hoes and followed them, not forgetting to take Qin Xiaoxiao's and Sanbao's small hoes with them.

"Xiaoxiao, it bit me, it hurts so much~" Sanbao's wrist was swollen and numb due to the strangulation. He thought he was bitten by a snake and cried more and more sadly.

No, it didn't bite you.

Qin Xiaoxiao waved her hand and used her other hand to pull the snake's tail to see if she could pull it off Sanbao's wrist. After only pulling for a long time, the white-flowered snake was still motionless, so she could only give up and save her strength to pinch the snake tightly.

neck.

Sanbao was led forward by Qin Xiaoxiao. His attention was all on the white snake, and he didn't pay attention to his feet for a moment. When walking through a dense grass, one foot tripped on the withered grass, and he threw himself forward:

"Smile--"

Unprepared, Qin Xiaoxiao was thrown to the ground by Sanbao and fell into a pile of withered grass. The hand holding the snake's neck was also pushed away by this unstoppable momentum.

Several children following behind were shocked by this incident. The oldest child looked at the wriggling white snake and shouted to Sambo lying on the grass: "Sambo, hold down the snake quickly, it is going to bite you."

Got it!"

Sanbao was so stunned that he never imagined that there was a snake wrapped around his wrist. After hearing the shouts of his friends, he looked around for the snake and met the cold eyes of the white snake.

Qin Xiaoxiao was also stunned. Amidst the shouts of her friends, she suddenly realized that there was nothing in her hands, and she suddenly broke into a cold sweat.

When she got up from the pile of dead grass in panic and looked at San Bao, she was horrified to find that the body of the white flower snake was still tightly wrapped around San Bao's wrist, but the snake's head was raised high, spitting out scarlet letters and staring at San Bao's neck.

.

At this critical moment, a childish cry with a changed tone broke out: "Don't bite -"

Qin Xiaoxiao's shout shocked Sanbao and the children. She was the only one who was anxious about Sanbao's safety. She didn't realize that she could speak. She staggered over and tried to save Baihua.

Pull the snake away to prevent it from biting the Three Treasures.

But she was a step too late, and it was too late to pull the white snake away.

Soon after, the big yellow that was leading the way came at a very fast speed, opened its mouth and bit down hard on the neck of the snake. Having dealt with venomous snakes many times, it knew how to deal with such long snakes.

guy.

So when Qin Xiaoxiao and the others didn't react, Rhubarb bit the white-flowered snake and shook the dog's head crazily. A group of children could only see the afterimage. When it stopped shaking its head, it spat out the white-flowered snake in its mouth in disgust,

The white snake is as soft as noodles, and only the tip of its tail can tremble twice.

This wild swing of the rhubarb broke the backbone of the white-flowered snake inch by inch, and even if it was still breathing, it would not live long.

"Woof woof!" Dahuang stuck out his tongue, shook his head and wagged his tail to ask for credit from his little master. The whole dog was in a state of disbelief.

"Sambo!" The crisis was over, and some color returned to Qin Xiaoxiao's pale face. She touched Dahuang's dog's head and struggled to pull Sanbao up from the ground: "Did you get bitten by a snake?"

Sanbao looked at Qin Xiaoxiao blankly, then suddenly hugged her and jumped up and down with joy: "Xiaoxiao, you can talk now, you can talk now~"

Qin Xiaoxiao was stunned: "I, I can speak? Yeah, I can really speak, Sanbao, I can speak!"

Realizing that she could actually speak, the little girl jumped three feet high with excitement: "Great, I can speak now, I'm not mute anymore! Come on, let's go home quickly, I want to tell my grandparents that I

I can talk~"

As she said that, she took Sanbao's hand and ran home quickly. After running for two steps, she stopped again, and in the horrified eyes of Sanbao and others, she grabbed the paralyzed white snake in her hand: "Let's go.

, let’s go home!”

Snakes are also meat. She has never eaten snake meat before, so she doesn’t know if it tastes good or not.

Just like that, Qin Xiaoxiao held the snake in one hand and Sanbao in the other, and ran home happily. The two of them ran home in one breath, with a thin layer of sweat forming on their foreheads.

"Why are you running? There is a cat chasing you behind you. What should you do if you fall?" Lin Qiuniang was drying sweet potato chips in the yard. When she saw her sister and brother rushing into the yard out of breath, she couldn't help but scolded her. She didn't notice for the moment that her daughter was carrying

white-flowered snake.

Qin Xiaoxiao stood at the door with a silly smile, looking at Lin Qiuniang with her big eyes, and shouted loudly with all her strength: "Mother——"

Snap!

The bamboo basket in Lin Qiuniang's hand fell to the ground, and the sweet potato slices were scattered all over the floor. She looked at her daughter in disbelief, and couldn't believe her ears: "Xiaoxiao, is it you who is calling me mother?"

Qin Xiaoxiao let go of Sanbao's hand and plunged into Lin Qiuniang's arms: "Mother~"

Lin Qiuniang's tears flowed down her cheeks: "Smile, my dear dear, you are well, you are finally well!"

"Yeah, okay, I'm fine. I'll tell my mother a story every night from now on!" Qin Xiaoxiao carefully wiped her mother's tears and coaxed her like a little adult: "Mom, don't cry. I can speak.

Just be happy."

"I'm happy, I'm happy, my mother is crying with joy." Lin Qiuniang cried uncontrollably while holding her daughter, fearing that this was a dream she had.

Hearing Lin Qiuniang's cry, Mrs. Miao Zhao Cao'er, who was busy cutting and steaming sweet potatoes in the kitchen, thought something had happened, threw away her kitchen knife and firewood and ran out in a hurry.

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?" Zhao Cao'er didn't know why Lin Qiuniang was crying, so he stepped forward to ask clearly. Out of the corner of his eye, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of Qin Xiaoxiao holding something in her hand.

At first she thought it was a grass rope, until she got closer and saw clearly that it was a white-flowered snake. She was so frightened that she sat down on the ground and pointed at Qin Xiaoxiao with a pale face: "Snake, snake--"

Lin Qiuniang and Mrs. Miao were startled. They looked at Qin Xiaoxiao's hand at the same time and found that she was actually holding a white snake with a tail that was still moving. Goosebumps all over their bodies got up and they shouted loudly: "Xiaoxiao, hurry up,

Throw it away!"

Not to mention that the white snake is still alive, even if it is dead, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will be scared.

"Oh, okay~" Qin Xiaoxiao didn't expect them to be so afraid of snakes, so she had to put the snake in a hidden corner and wait for grandpa to deal with it.

"Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao can talk now?" Hearing Qin Xiaoxiao's voice with his own ears, Mrs. Miao Zhao Cao'er's attention instantly shifted to Qin Xiaoxiao, and her reaction was exactly the same as Lin Qiuniang's: "Okay? Xiaoxiao

alright?"

"Grandma, Second Aunt, I'm fine!" Qin Xiaoxiao smiled brightly and her voice was crisp and sweet: "I'm not mute anymore. I was frightened by this snake!" As she said that, she pointed at the white-flowered snake, hoping that they

Don't be afraid, snakes can be made delicious.

"It's great, it's great, my ancestors bless me, my ancestors bless me!" Mrs. Miao cried with joy, hugging her little granddaughter with trembling hands. She couldn't get enough of it.

"Yes, our ancestors have blessed us. Our ancestors have blessed us and we are getting better with laughter!" Zhao Cao'er also had red circles in her eyes, and she was no less excited than Mrs. Miao.

"Grandma, Second Aunt, don't cry. When you cry, I want to cry too~" Qin Xiaoxiao stretched out her little hands to wipe away the tears of Mrs. Miao and Zhao Cao'er respectively, comforting them like a little adult.

I haven't heard Qin Xiaoxiao's voice in two months. Her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law couldn't wait to keep talking with her, and they didn't even bother to take care of the half-finished sweet potato chips.

Lin Qiuniang remembered what her daughter had just said, and wanted to find out the reason why her daughter suddenly spoke, so she asked: "Xiaoxiao, what's going on with this snake? Why do you say you were frightened by the snake?"

Qin Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes, looked at the faces of the adults and said slowly: "We dug sweet roots on the earthbags and dug out this snake. The snake was going to bite Sanbao. I was so scared. Let

It can talk without being bitten!"

The situation at that time was far more dangerous than she said. She did not directly say that the white flower snake was dug up by San Bao, but she was worried that San Bao would be scolded or even beaten.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law did not witness what happened, so naturally they believed whatever Qin Xiaoxiao said. They knew how powerful the white-flowered snake was, and even though Qin Xiaoxiao downplayed the danger, they still gasped: "It was too dangerous, it was almost

If someone loses his life, you can no longer dig in the soil."

Qin Xiaoxiao nodded her head as if pounding garlic: "If I don't dig it, I won't dig it, and I won't dig it again!"

After learning that the reason the two children were able to escape was due to Rhubarb, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law praised Rhubarb again and again, saying that they had not raised it in vain. Mrs. Miao even took out two eggs and cracked them in Rhubarb's rice bowl.

, which is regarded as a reward for it. When the lunch is cooked, give it something delicious.

While the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law continued to work on the sweet potato chips, Qin Xiaoxiao secretly told Sanbao not to tell the adults that he dug up the white-flowered snake.

Sanbao knew that the little cousin was doing it for his own good, but he was an honest child, so he struggled and said: "Xiaoxiao, this is a lie!"

Qin Xiaoxiao nodded his forehead and reasoned with him: "This is not a lie. Either you dug it or I dug it. Of course, we dug it together. You can't tell anyone about it anyway."

.”

Sanbao's little mind couldn't think of anything too complicated, and he always obeyed Qin Xiaoxiao's advice, so he agreed honestly: "If you don't tell me, I won't tell anyone."

Qin Xiaoxiao pinched his little face with satisfaction: "Be good~"

Not long after, Mr. Qin came back after walking around in the wheat field. When he heard Qin Xiaoxiao rushing towards him and calling "Grandpa", he thought there was something wrong with his ears.

Until he was sure that Qin Xiaoxiao was really well, the guilt he had suppressed for several months suddenly broke out. He touched his little granddaughter's head and said with tears: "Okay, okay, okay~"

Qin Xiaoxiao couldn't understand the weight of these three "good" words, but she felt uncomfortable hearing them. She silently wiped her grandfather's tears and nestled quietly in his arms for a long time.

At noon, at Qin Xiaoxiao's strong request, Mr. Qin skinned and disembowelled the dead white snake, and asked Mrs. Miao to add some dried mushrooms to make a pot of delicious and attractive mushroom and snake soup.

Not to mention, the white-flowered snake is scary-looking and highly poisonous, but the mushroom snake soup made from it is extremely delicious. Qin Xiaoxiao held the bowl and ate without raising her head. She really wanted to go dig at Tubaobao again in the afternoon.

One dig.

But just thinking about it, she felt that her life was important, and she would never dare to dig up snakes again. The white-flowered snake was so pitiful that it entered the Qin family's temple of five internal organs without provoking anyone, and she didn't know whether she would be reincarnated in the next life.

, can you not be an unlucky snake?
