Chapter 469 We Want to Sleep Out

Du Jinning unlocked the lock, pushed the door hard, and the door opened.The moment the door opened, a black shadow rushed towards her directly.Qi Muyuan had been prepared for a long time. He took out the dagger from his sleeve pocket, raised the knife and dropped it. The snake that jumped at him split into two pieces and fell to the ground. The room smelled of blood.

"Ah..." A timid student saw this scene, screamed loudly, backed away, and almost tripped over by the students behind.

"what happened?"

"What happened just now?" The students behind didn't know what happened, they kept looking in.

Some of the people standing in front were stunned, and some of them seemed to have just realized it now, their faces were pale, and they also backed away again and again, saying in their mouths: "Snake, there are snakes."

"Snake? Where is it?" Upon hearing that there was a snake, these people backed away in fright, away from the door.

For those who are brave enough, seeing Du Jinning, Qi Muyuan, and Xu Chengyuan standing still at the door, they don't retreat but instead move forward. They lean over and look inside, and they see a snake as thick as two fingers cut in two. , head and tail were still twitching; Qi Muyuan was holding a dagger in his hand, which seemed to be stained with some blood.

When they saw the snake clearly, these students all gasped.

There are many snakes in Gui Province, and the people here also have a certain understanding of snakes.The more colorful the snake, the more poisonous it is.The snake in front of him was obviously a poisonous snake, and it was a very poisonous one.If he was bitten, he might not be saved until the doctor arrives.

"My God, why are there snakes here? And it's a poisonous snake? It's terrible."

Everyone turned their necks and looked around the room, fearing that another snake would emerge out of nowhere.

"April wasps, August snakes", although it has entered September, it is still a period when snakes are very rampant.Considering that this courtyard is built against the mountain, there is a big rock in the middle, surrounded by lush trees, and it is not surprising that there are snakes.

Du Jinning seemed to have just woken up from the fright at this time, and took a few steps back again and again, holding his chest and panting for breath.

Xu Chengyuan was also very alert. Seeing Du Jinning like this, he asked with concern: "Jinning, are you okay?"

Du Jinning shook his head, but didn't answer him, but murmured: "It's terrible, it's terrible."

Qi Muyuan looked like a master, and slowly took out a handkerchief from his arms, wiped the dagger carefully, then put it back into the dagger case, and put it back in his sleeve pocket.

He turned to comfort Du Jinning: "It's all right."

Du Jinning grabbed his arm and asked, "You said, how could there be a snake? If it weren't for you, I would have died just now." He patted his chest again, "It's terrible."

"What's going on? What are so many people doing here?" A person came over and asked.

"Ah, Cao Zhaifu, you came just in time. Take a look, there is a snake in this room. How dare we live in your dormitory. If a snake gets in at night, then we are finished? When the students saw Cao Li approaching, they hurriedly told him as if they had seen a savior.

"Snake?" Cao Li squeezed over suspiciously, glanced at the ground, and was also taken aback.

He looked at Du Jinning and the others again, and asked, "Are you all right?"

"No……"

Du Jinning was about to say it's okay, but Xu Chengyuan acted like a parent, and said angrily, "Why is it okay? If it wasn't for today's coincidence that we came together, and Qi Muyuan was still wearing self-defense, my Jinning must have been bitten by a snake." No. Look at what kind of snake this is? A venomous snake, what's going on in the academy? It charges such an expensive accommodation fee, but it's so unsafe, who would dare to live here."

"Yeah, what are you guys doing in the academy? If we don't check and clean it well, let snakes come into the house, how dare we live here? No, I don't dare to stay here tonight, I want to go home."

"Yes, let the academy allow us to go home."

Because of this movement, the students in the academy who came back from class earlier, or came back one after another, gathered around to find out what happened.Knowing that a snake had entered Du Jinning's room, and it was a poisonous snake, everyone's necks felt chilly.When I thought about it, if the snake drilled into my own room, wouldn't it kill me?

So when someone proposed to go home to live, everyone responded one after another.

Originally, most of these students were from Fucheng, especially those who lived in Shangshe, who were either rich or noble.The family eats well and lives well, and there are beautiful wives, beautiful concubines and little maids, soft jade and gentle fragrance, life is not to mention comfortable.But in order to go to school, I have to live in this kind of place, not to mention the crowding, I can’t bring people down, I have to wash the clothes by myself, the food is not good, and there are restrictions, and the night is even colder and colder.This kind of life is simply suffering for them who have been well-clothed and swarmed with servants since they were young.

Now that they have this excuse to go home and live in a dormitory, they are naturally very happy to follow suit.

"Everyone, don't make noise." Cao Li shouted loudly, "The school has been built for hundreds of years, and there has never been a situation where a snake entered the house. The cleaners clean the yard and weeds every day, and there are no snakes around the house. The vegetation can hide, and there are always people coming and going here, so snakes generally don’t come to the yard.”

"No matter how reasonable what you say, the fact is that the snake got into Du Jinning's house. We saw the danger with our own eyes." Fang Shaohua said.

"Yes, yes, it can be seen that there are still snakes. We asked to go back to live." These students wanted to take this opportunity to go home and live, "Cao Zhaifu, you can't decide this matter, so don't waste your time here. Hurry up and report to Professor Tang and ask him to give us a reply."

Facing the noisy voices, Cao Li had no choice but to shout loudly: "Everyone, don't worry, listen to me. This snake didn't crawl in by itself, but someone put it in."

"Huh?" Everyone was surprised.

But then, the scene became even more heated: "What's going on? Why would someone put a snake in the house?"

"who is it?"

"How do you know? Since you know, why didn't you let him get rid of the snake? Do you know how dangerous it was just now?"

"Everyone listen to me, everyone listen to me." Cao Li was sweating profusely, "Mr. Jing caught a sneaky person in this yard just now, thought it was a thief, and took him to Professor Tang. I originally wanted to come over and talk to Du Xianggong to see if there was anything missing in his house. I didn't expect such a thing to happen, the snake must have been put in by that person. "

"Who is so vicious?"

"This is to kill Du Jinning.

"Who is it, who is it?"

Cao Li did not answer this question, but looked at Du Jinning: "Du Xianggong, if something like this happens, you may have to go to Professor Tang's. Don't worry, the academy will explain this to you."
