Chapter 428 Poisonous snake in the water

Granny Bai held the pen for a long time, but Rong Yi didn't say a word.

She was so excited just now, but now she really can't think of anything to say. There are so many things she wants to say that she doesn't even know where to start.

Seeing this, Granny Bai smiled knowingly and said softly: "Madam, think slowly whether the messenger will leave soon."

Rong Yi blushed, thought again, and then said: "Seeing words is like meeting..."

Granny Bai started writing. After a long while, she closed the envelope. Rong Yi took it in her hand and found that she had written quite a lot.

After handing the letter to the messenger, the messenger left. At this time, the medicine was ready and he was bringing it over for Rong Yi to take. Before he even got close to it, the smell came over him. It was so strong that Rong Yi almost felt sick. But thinking about the sake of the child, she still held her breath and drank it. As soon as the bowl was put down, Yu Heng offered a piece of honey. Rong Yi hurriedly took it in her mouth and took a deep breath, saying: "It's so bitter! It’s even more painful than what the doctor prescribed.”

The servant hurriedly comforted him: "Good medicine tastes bitter!"

Rong Yi: "..."

……

The messenger came out of Zhaoyiyuan and met a woman. Seeing that he was a stranger, the woman stopped him and chatted for a few words...

After the messenger left, Xia Xin asked, "Auntie, are we still going to stay for a long time?"

Fang Mingliang's eyes suddenly darkened, she squeezed the handkerchief tightly, and said in a low voice: "I'm not going, I'm going back to Fangju."

It turned out that they had been corresponding, but he had never received a letter. He didn't even have any letters to his family, all of them were given to that woman.

Seeing that Fang Mingliang's expression was not good, Xia Xin comforted her and said, "Auntie, don't think too much. The general is too busy. I'm afraid he won't have time to write a letter. The woman is just relying on having a child."

The word "child" stung Fang Mingliang's nerves. She turned her head to look at Xia Xin, her eyes becoming more and more angry. She gritted her teeth tightly and her cheeks bulged.

Xia Xin's heart trembled at the look in her eyes, and she instinctively lowered her head to wait for the punishment.

Fang Mingliang looked at her, and after a long time she breathed out and said: "Mothers are more valuable than their children, so how come she is so lucky? One pregnancy means two."

Xia Xin said: "But there are very few people who can successfully give birth to twins..."

Fang Mingliang glanced at Xia Xin, thought of something, and smiled softly. Yes, twins are a rare example. Whether they can survive after birth remains to be seen...

If she doesn't manage well during pregnancy, will it be difficult to give birth?Will it be difficult to give birth?
Once you have such thoughts, it is difficult to let go. Xia Xin also heard it and asked directly: "Auntie, do you want to..."

Fang Mingliang glared at her, exhaled a long breath, and said, "We'll talk about it when we get back."

Xia Xin: "Yes."

……

It was almost the end of June when Jiang Shunxiao received the letter.

He looked at the thick letter and smiled, but put the letter away until he returned to the camp at night before looking through it.

At this time, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. Although it was extremely hot, there was a cool breeze. Jiang Shunxiao was sitting on a chair by the window. He had just returned from taking a bath in the river, and his body was still a little moist. It became even cooler when the wind passed by.

The conditions here are not as good as those in the town. Although he can wait for people to carry water to him for bathing due to his status, he has been in the army for so many years and has not developed the habit of being waited on in the army.

Who is not tired at the end of the day?

In a hot season like this, I usually take off my clothes and jump into the water by myself. The water in the mountains is not fast and the water quality is very clean.

Jiang Shunxiao was reading the content of the letter. She who wrote the letter was different from her usual self. In the letter, she seemed to be more open-minded. She even accused herself of being biased in painting the landscape pictures just for her children to see. Seeing this With one sentence, Jiang Shunxiao smiled.

He always read things very quickly, but he read her letter very slowly. After reading it once, he repeated it again, thinking about her expression when she said these words in his mind, and it was actually very vivid.Just as I was putting the letter away, a voice suddenly came from outside: "No! There are poisonous snakes in the water! Don't go into the water!"

Hearing this, Jiang Shun stood up and walked out.

A lot of people gathered outside. Two soldiers with earth-colored faces and naked upper bodies were lying on the ground wet, dead.

Jiang Shunxiao walked over and everyone opened a path. He saw two people on the ground. Someone next to him said to him: "There is no way to save the day. One bites on the neck and the other bites... on the root. They were bitten by a highly venomous snake." .”

Jiang Shunxiao's face showed a chill. He glanced at the two snakes that were killed next to him and his eyes darkened.

"Why are there snakes in the water?"

no one answered...

Jiang Shunxiao's face became darker.

They usually pay great attention to the water they use, but why would two snakes appear out of nowhere?And happened to bite someone?

At this moment, someone came over again, and a dead snake was thrown together with the two. The soldier's face turned pale: "No... there are more than two! There are many more in the water!"

……

At night, Hu Delin Zhun and several other lieutenants gathered together. Jiang Shunxiao had already returned to the main tent. Before returning, he coldly ordered them to find out the source of the snake.

How the hell do you check this? !Hood couldn't help but curse.

There are snakes, insects, rats, ants, ferocious beasts and poisonous things in the mountains, but these things are almost non-existent in the places where people live. They have all been cleared away. Even if they are present, they are not fatal!
People who always clear mountains are always very careful. Who wants to die under an animal?
But who would have thought that two soldiers were killed in one night and were bitten to death by snakes?

Lin Zhun's face was dark and he said: "This snake is no accident. It looks like it has been specially trained to bite people. Ordinary snakes would have run away long ago."

The soldier who had just come to report in a panic said that it was too dark at night and he was going back. The snake was hiding in the grass and came straight towards him. He chopped it to death with a knife.

Hood frowned: "Who is it that raising snakes after eating enough is harmful to people?"

Lin Zhun glanced at him silently: "Who else can it be besides the other party?"

Hood snorted and said: "It's hard to make a conclusion on this. If it's really happening, it's not too late. If not... we need to pay attention. Who else will go against us at this juncture."

There is nothing wrong with this. After a few people gathered together, they still had to wait until daybreak before sending someone out to check. Although the army was all grown men and were not afraid of snakes and other animals, it was too dark at night to avoid unnecessary trouble, so we still did not send anyone out. People went out, but many people were also sent to patrol outside at night, fearing that they would crawl in.

……

In the early morning, when Jiang Shunxiao came out again, there were no less than ten snakes piled together, and they were all killed by the soldiers on night watch.

People who are not afraid of these things can't help but feel numb when they see so many piled up together. Jiang Shunxiao only glanced at them, his expression did not change, and asked someone to deal with them.

Last night, there were no casualties.

After all, animals are no better than humans. Jiang Jiajun is a trained person. Once he is wary, he will not be attacked again. Moreover, the opponent is just a snake that can show its fangs.
