City tour of the master of cultivation

Zhou Yi was led by Mu Qingya to the top of the entrance steps of the teaching building of the College of history.

Zhou Yi smelled the faint fragrance of jasmine from Mu Qingya's hair, and the faint smell of mint on his body after bathing. He really felt strange in his heart. He could not help but feel heavier holding Mu Qingya's slender hand.

Mu Qingya is not aware of anything, she is very angry, angry campus Xie Haiyan glanced at the classroom quietly listening to the students, after a while asked: "who knows the idiom of a nest of snakes and mice?"

A girl raised her hand and stood up. It was Lin Xue who was the bravest among the girls. Lin Xue answered Xie HaiYan's question: "a nest of snakes and mice is a derogatory term to describe bad people colluding with each other, or to describe two people who are related to each other doing bad things in the same way."

Xie Haiyan nodded, let Lin Xue sit down, and then looked at everyone like a review and asked: "so do you know the origin of the word snake and mouse nest?"

Everyone shook his head. Zhou Yi thought about it. He seemed to understand Xie HaiYan's meaning. Xie HaiYan's eyes just looked at him at this time and asked, "classmate Zhou Yi, do you know?"

Zhou Yi stood up, considered his words, and said, "Professor Xie, let me guess. As we all know, snakes and rats are cave creatures, but snakes are not good at making holes, which is done by rats. It is said that in the early days, a group of grave robbers were trapped and hungry when they were digging ancient tombs. As a result, they saw a mouse hole and wanted to catch the mice in the hole and eat them. But they did not expect that a nest of snakes and a nest of mice came out of the hole. Snakes should have eaten mice. How could they coexist? After the suspicious grave robbers caught mice and snakes and ate them, they recovered their strength and continued to dig the mouse hole. They found that there was a hidden grave under the mouse hole, which was full of precious gold and silver. From then on, the grave robbers had a wonderful life of overnight wealth. "

Xie Haiyan nodded, motioned Zhou Yi to sit down, and said to everyone, "the beautiful fairy tale about tomb robbers just told by Zhou Yi comes from an ancient book, named unofficial history of spring and autumn. The tomb robbers were the most famous group of thieves in the spring and Autumn period, Liu zhanxiong, also known as the group of thieves. According to the textual research, the archaeology of tomb robbing is the beginning of these people's tomb robbing. Therefore, in the experience handed down from generation to generation by tomb robbers, if we can see a nest of snakes and mice, we will find important treasures. This is the origin of a nest of snakes and mice. "

Everyone was attracted by the story that Xie Haiyan and Zhou Yi told together. There was such an allusion in the first nest of snake and mouse, which later became a derogatory term. Snake and mouse are the kind of animals that people dislike. Unexpectedly, when they are together, they are a sign of wealth.

"Teacher, so long as you see the mouse and the snake together in the cave, it means that there is a baby under the cave?" A male student stood up and asked.
