Chapter 0001 Black-haired boy
On the fifth day of the fifth month, the scorching sun is in the sky.
A young man with a pretty face and a thin figure was wearing an old blue cloth short-sleeved shirt, with his trousers rolled up to his knees, with a half-sealed bamboo-woven large fish basket in his left hand, his right hand was empty, and a eust yellow cloth bag was placed on his waist. He crouched barefoot in a green vegetable field, as if he was waiting for something?
The boy looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, with long hair black and shiny, and was tied steadily with a black ribbon, neatly tied behind his head. His facial features were not delicate, but his outlines were clearly defined. He walked in the crowd and would definitely not be remembered at first glance, but if he had a few conversations, he would not forget it in a flash.
About four or five feet away in front of him, there was a huge square barbarian melon shed, with dark green barbarian melons hanging around the shed. However, the young man obviously did not come for this. His eyes were always staring at the barbarian melon shed, holding his breath and listening carefully.
Suddenly, the boy's eyes lit up and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Under the melon shed, in the shade, a toad that was as big as four adults' palms. Looking closely at the toad, it was different from ordinary people. Its skin was covered with large and small bumps, and its whole body was not ordinary yellow, but bright golden. If there was sunlight on the surface, it would probably reflect a metallic luster. What's even more strange is that its eyes were red, and when it opened and closed, there was a vertical pupil in the middle, which looked creepy.
The boy was not afraid and still crouched in place, motionless.
Could it be that the prey he was waiting patiently was not just this strange toad, but something else?
In May, mosquitoes and flies were already flooded. Several black blood-sucking mosquitoes, the size of rice grains, fell silently on the boy's exposed arms and calves, sucking blood with all their might, but the boy seemed to be unaware of it. Until the blood-sucking mosquito flew away with a full meal, he bulged the size of a fingernail in the bite, he ignored it.
Finally, in the grass not far away, there were intermittent "rustling" sounds of some kind of animal crawling, and sometimes there were one or two almost inaudible "hissing" sounds.
The boy was as quiet as a rock, but there was a smile between his eyebrows. It seemed that the prey he was waiting for was about to appear.
Sure enough, after a moment, a big snake with a body of about a foot long, colorful patterns and a crown on its head crawled under the melon shed, confronting the golden toad.
The golden toad seemed not afraid when facing this uninvited guest with a bad intention. He turned around in a clumsy way, and whistled twice, probably as a warning.
The gorgeous snake immediately raised its head, more than two feet above the ground, and a black letter was swallowing and spitting.
The boy remained motionless and stared at him, even his breathing had temporarily paused.
After the golden toad and the colorful snake confronted each other for a while, the colorful snake seemed to be unable to hold back any longer. First, it attacked in a flash, suddenly launched a lightning attack, opened its mouth and bit the golden toad. On the other hand, the golden toad was still moving, and its fat body suddenly shrank, and white water droplets were secreted from the golden lumps of all sizes on its back, like milk.
The colorful snake bit the golden toad without hesitation. Two thick and long poisonous fangs pierced into the golden toad's body, injecting a large amount of venom. At the same time, the body rolled over, wrapped the golden toad tightly and contracted it hard. The golden toad did not struggle except for the slight convulsion of the limbs. The colorful snake seemed to be sure that the golden toad had no power to resist and began to swallow it whole. When the whole golden toad completely filled the mouth of the colorful snake, a strange scene happened.
The golden toad, which originally seemed to have been poisoned and coma or died, suddenly moved and was out of control. Its tight body suddenly expanded like a golden meat ball filled with gas. It almost doubled its size in one encounter. As a result, the mouth of the colorful snake was completely stretched to its limit, and it could not swallow it or vomit it out, and it was instantly in an embarrassing situation of being in a dilemma.
The boy who had been watching quietly chuckled and said in surprise: "It's true."
Under the melon shed, the colorful snake had already wrapped itself into a ball, wrapping its head and the golden toad stuck in its mouth. The boy put down the bamboo basket, untied the sack at his waist, stretched out the bag with his hands, took a deep breath, and then rushed out like a cheetah, covering the colorful snake, quickly flipped it over, tied the bag tightly, and stuffed it into the big fish basket. The whole set of movement was smooth and flowing, and it was done in one go.
The boy stood up straight, let out a long breath, carried the big fish basket on his back, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his face, smiled happily, and showed his neat and white teeth.
"Hey! Babies, I'm hiding in my husband's vegetable field. Could it be that I want to steal the melon?" An old man in a gorgeous dress, with a childish face, and was in a good spirit. He stood in the darkness under a willow tree, with his hands on a pergola, staring at him and scolding.
The boy was not panicked, so he turned around and took a few steps, clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Yi Gangyu, I have met Mr. Helian."
"Hmph!" Mr. He Ran glanced at the big fish basket carrying Yi Gangyu and said, "Take out all the melons."
"Sir, there is no barbarian melon in my fish basket."
"I don't believe it. You kid are famously poor in the local dog town. Even wild dogs don't want to live in your dilapidated house." Mr. Helian took two steps forward and continued, "I have a lot of knowledge about the melons. You stand here and don't run away. Let me go forward and count..."
Yi Gangyu smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Helian, there are twenty ripe melons in the shed, and there are still seventeen immature ones. You really have to count them and ensure that one is a lot."
Mr. Helian was stunned and asked, "It's true that you are here to help me count the melons?"
Yi Gangyu held the fish basket on his back and said, "Mr. Hui, Doctor Hua saw that the hunters and fishermen in the town were often bitten by poisons. Tragedy happened from time to time. He couldn't bear it, so he planned to refine a [Five Poison Pill] that can both drive away poisons and detoxify. He was short of two medicinal herbs. Now, I dared to come to your vegetable garden to try my luck."
Mr. Helian asked with a squinted eye: "Have you met?"
Yi Gangyu nodded, very honest.
"Doctor Hua offers a reward of five hundred Xuanwu Golden Beads to find golden toads and colorful vipers. Both of these are highly toxic things. You guys dare to take them, but you are very brave." Mr. Helian said, "Let me ask you, are you for the golden beads or for those hunters and fishermen?"
Yi Gangyu said without hesitation: "Mr. Hui, both are there."
"I'll ask you again, how do you know that there are these two poisons in my vegetable garden?"
Yi Gangyu smiled and said a little embarrassedly: "Sir, when I was digging the vegetable field last month, I accidentally saw this golden toad. Doctor Hua secretly told me that these two poisons are mortal enemies, and there will be colorful vipers in places with golden toads, so I squatted under your melon shed for a whole morning. Doctor Hua also told me that on the fifth day of the fifth month, that is, today, these two poisons will definitely meet and fight to the death. Then he taught the safest way to arrest me, and then I dared to come."
"Hmph! Doctor Hua is quite caring for you, a kid." Mr. Helian said annoyedly, "Now you have caught the golden toad and the colorful viper, and you must have felt very happy after getting the five hundred Xuanwu Jinzhu, but I am very unhappy. Guess why?"
Yi Gangyu shook his head and said nothing.
Mr. Helian touched the beard on his chin and asked in a deep voice: "Who is the vegetable garden?"
"Of course it's Mr."
"Whose thing in the vegetable garden belongs to?"
"Of course, it's Mr."
"Didn't the golden toad and the colorful viper caught in my husband's vegetable garden?"
"Yes."
Mr. Helian glared and said, "Then do you understand why I am very upset?"
Yi Gangyu nodded and said calmly: "Five hundred Xuanwu Golden Beads will be presented to the sir as much as possible."
Mr. Helian immediately smiled, gave a thumbs up, and said, "You are quite good at it. Go and pick two of the largest melons and go home to enjoy. As for the Xuanwu Golden Beads, go to the town to find a tailor to customize a few new outfits, and repair your old house with leaks everywhere. After all, you are a man with hair on your mouth and birds hanging under your crotch. Whenever you go to the market in the town, the girls who hide at home embroidery on weekdays come out to breathe and bubble, watery and tender, don't you have any idea?"
Yi Gangyu said honestly: "Yes."
Mr. Helian smiled and said, "Then why don't you get out of here?"
Yi Gangyu bowed and said, "Sir, see you again."
"return."
"What else is there for you sir?"
Mr. Helian whispered and said, "Pick the melon and get out."
Yi Gangyu picked two barbarian melons that were neither big nor small, and thanked him for leaving.
Mr. Helian looked at Yi Gangyu's back as he was thinking for a moment, shook his head and said, "There are nearly 30,000 people in Digou Town, men, women, young and old. If you are honest and kind, this child ranks second, and no one dares to recognize the first place. Alas... As the saying goes, thirty years of feng shui will change. If God is not blind, he should be favored and favored you."
Today is the market day in Digou Town. Even at noon, the streets are still crowded and lively. Logically, this Digou Town, located in the far north of the Obsidian Continent, is really a poor mountain and water-proofing, and the town is full of barbaric and unruly people. But how can it break the convention and show a prosperous and prosperous scene?
There is nothing else, because ten miles west of Digou Town, there is a unique Divine Mastiff Peak famous on the Obsidian Continent.
The peak is full of divine mastiffs, and the whole body is pitch black, with only eyes red as red as fire.
According to several old men in the town who were fortunate to witness the charm of the divine mastiff, the divine mastiff is more than meter long and six feet tall. The head is larger than the millstone used by Widow Wang’s house to hold the door at night. The four long and sharp fangs in her mouth can tear the neck of a big buffalo effortlessly, and its four legs are even more intimidating. It is like a tree stump, and it runs like a black lightning bolt.
Most of the people in the town didn't believe the vivid statements of several old men.
Yi Gangyu didn't believe it either. He once slipped into the yard of Widow Wang and glanced at the door millstone. At least it was worth seven or eight of his heads. After gasping for a breath of air, he said in horror, "That's a big deal!" and then never approached Shenmao Peak again. If the old men said nothing false and had a back hit, his body would probably be gone in a few bites.
Although life is tight, it is better to live than to die. As Mr. Helian said, the town is full of water, white and tender girls, and they live to be almost eighteen years old, and they have never touched the girls' hands. Isn't it worth it to go like this?
Walking through the bustling crowds, Yi Gangyu glanced at the flower girls passing by.
Well... Hu Meier, the daughter of the mayor's family, is like the melons in Mr. Helian's vegetable field. She is slender and well-proportioned and plump. I don't know which pig will be hushed on the bed in the future?
Isn’t that there Fu Yiyi, the owner of the silk shop? This little girl has only been around for half a month, so why is her breast growing like a blow-off? Yes, it must be her father who spent a lot of money to secretly buy [Breast Pill] from Doctor Hua for food every day, otherwise it would be too unreasonable.
