Chapter 46 Sure enough
The village head's wrinkled face couldn't hide his smile and appreciation.

"A few days ago, I heard Zhang Juan say that Gao's daughter-in-law is capable, and it's true." The village head looked at the tiger carcass in the hands of the two of them and said, "It's a blessing for our village that you, Manxiu, are married into our village! "

Zhang Juan is Zhang's mother at the entrance of the village. Since that day when she carried a wolf's skin and walked past her house, Zhang's mother has almost blown her away in the village.
Gu Manxiu wiped the sweat silently in her heart, the rumors of middle-aged women are not credible
"Village Chief, let everyone share the meat." Jiang Yichen took the words with a smile, and rescued the woman who was a little overwhelmed by the praise.

"How can this be done!" The village head threw the wooden staff on the ground, and refused, "It's the meat that Manxiu took at risk, and there are three dolls at home, so I can keep it for myself."

This time, Gu Manxiu went to fight the tiger not for the meat of the tiger at all, but for the price that the tiger skin can sell. It didn't matter to her whether she wanted the meat or not, so she agreed with Jiang Yichen. He said: "Our family just took some. If we can't finish eating such a big tiger, it will be destroyed. It's better to enjoy it with everyone."

Those who beat the tiger have already said so, and this is another good thing, so the old man no longer shirked it, and called every household to share the meat in the afternoon.

Now that he had arrived, Jiang Yichen was not in a hurry to leave, he held the tiger skin in his hand and refused to let go, but the young master in Tsing Yi was not holding a paper fan flute, but a big tiger skin
Gu Manxiu felt a little awkward looking at people like this, she stretched out her hand and said helplessly, "What are you following? I'll go back after I sell it."

"I'll go with you." Jiang Yichen took a step back, protecting the tiger skin so stubbornly that Gu Manxiu couldn't snatch it away, so cute.

Not being able to stand against this person, Gu Manxiu resigned to her fate and set off on the road side by side.

The capital city is very large, so bustling that people can't tell the direction. All the streets are full of lively vendors and pedestrians. The most lively place on the small street is the Red Gate. There are always different troupes and jugglers there. Attracting people to stop means that they can't move their steps and eyes for a long time.

Standing at the end of the small street, you can hear the exclamation and cheers of the jugglers in the middle from time to time.

The crowd formed a circle around the jugglers today, looking at the two boxes in the open space covered by dirty old rags.

"Mother." The little baby was held in the arms of the woman, curiously raising her small face and pointing at the box.

"What is that?"

The woman smiled softly, and replied: "Mother doesn't know, I don't know if she is playing shadow puppetry like the day before."

The child clapped his hands and laughed: "Qiuqiu wants to see a shadow play!"

As more and more people stood around, the man sitting on the box started to move.

The man's hair was disheveled, and he wore a one-eyed eyepatch covering his left eye. The eyepatch seemed to be a little smaller, but it still didn't cover some of the exposed scars. It looked a little scary.

The little doll, who was sitting in the woman's arms and shouting at the shadow puppet just now, inadvertently glanced at the man, then was so frightened that she turned her head and hugged the woman's neck.

"Everyone, the villain is passing through here, bringing some talents from his hometown to everyone!"

While talking, the man took out two wooden basins and put them on the ground, still talking.

"If you think it's wonderful, please tell the judges to give me some small bits and pieces, so I'll have a good time buying it!"

Everyone stood there for a long time, and they were already very curious about the contents of his box. After hearing the words, someone immediately threw a few copper coins into the wooden bowl, "You should start quickly!"

"What the hell is this guy going to play?"

"I've been standing there for half a day!"

The man picked up the scattered copper plates, and with a smile on his face, he walked slowly to the box, and with a swipe, opened the white cloth.

"what!!!!"

"This is a snake!!"

"Hey! This snake is not small!"

As soon as the white cloth was lifted, everyone let out a lot of exclamation. Looking at the big snake locked in a wooden cage, it moved a little further away, but not many people left.

"It can't be a fighting snake?"

"What's there to see? How about watching my kids fight crickets!"

Hearing the voices of the crowd gradually subside, the man lifted the white cloth of another cage, allowing everyone to see what was inside.

There is no snake in this cage, but a child curled up.

The child was barefoot, and the clothes on his body had been worn for an unknown amount of time. There were signs of old mending everywhere. His hair was scattered on his shoulders in such a mess. There were bruise marks and teeth bite wounds on his bare skin.

"This, what is this for?!"

The man laughed and kicked the cage, unlocked it and let the child out.

The child was very thin and didn't look big. When he staggered out of the cage, everyone was a little worried that he would faint in the next moment.

"This snake was found by the villain after searching for a long time in the mountains. It is non-poisonous and does not bite people. Please rest assured."

Some women couldn't bear to watch, so they opened their mouths and pointed at the man and cursed: "How can you make fun of such a small doll!"

"Exactly! A child fighting a snake! It's crazy!"

The man raised his face with a disdainful smile, and opened the cage that locked the snake as if he didn't hear it.

"Nowadays, people really can do anything for such a few cents of silver."

The big snake seemed to have been in the cage for a long time. When the cage was opened, it couldn't wait to twist its body and crawl out of it. Some people couldn't stand it anymore and went home with their children. So, lost some money.

The man walked up to the little boy, holding a bowl of blood in his hand, casually wiped it on the child's face, bent down and laughed softly, "Go."

The big snake spit out snake letters, and keenly captured the blood in the air. After a while, one person and one snake looked at each other. The snake found the target, twisted its huge body, and crawled towards the child who was still a little dazed.

"Run!"

Someone in the crowd shouted at the child, and the voices kept coming and going, making the child a little confused about what the people standing around were talking about.

run?
How can I escape under this person's hands?

The snake got closer and closer, opened its mouth and bit the child's leg, as if awakened by the pain of the fangs piercing into the flesh, and only now did the child move without saying a word.

"what!!!"

"It will kill people!"

The man who saw the excitement turned aside and said with a sneer: "This snake is not poisonous, how can it hurt people?"

This is much more interesting than snakes fighting snakes.

The child seemed to have used all his strength, panting heavily to lift the snake away from his body. The wound on his calf was painful, making him a little unable to stand up.

"stand up!"
