The cowherd didn't notice what was going on in the village, although the village head had already agreed with him that he would take him to visit the clan elders to discuss the matter of entering the ancestral hall during this time, so that he could get ready.But the fact that the village chief never came made him relieved, because the big snake was very ill.

Since he coughed that day, the big snake's cough has become more and more serious, and the whole snake has become weak, coiled in the corner of the cave.Although the cowherd often saw him coiled in the corner of the cave when he went up the mountain before, but he could feel the big snake's discomfort now.Only he helped the master snake to scrub his body, especially when scrubbing the snake's tail, the snake seemed to feel a little better.Therefore, the cowherd went up the mountain more frequently, and even stayed in the mountain for several days in a row. Apart from eating and sleeping, he would scrub his body for the big snake when he had time.

In fact, the idea of ​​staying in the mountains often flashed through the cowherd's mind.But... what kind of identity does he stay with Orochi?

"Hiss..." Hei Shiqi rubbed the snake letter against the cowherd's forehead. Although he didn't know what the pain in his throat was, he vaguely realized that the pain was not a bad thing.In addition, he liked this mortal more and more. Although this mortal was weak, he was very comfortable when touched by him.Especially his own snake tail, when Hei Shiqi was stroked by him, he would even mistakenly think that he had become a hot-blooded species, warming up from the inside of his body.

However, although this mortal has been by his side longer and longer, he still can't forget to leave.

Cowherd's arms were sore and weak, and he finally fell asleep from exhaustion. Hei Shiqi surrounded him and cast a calming spell on him so that he would not be woken up by the sound of his own coughing.

The cowherd came down from the mountain and saw people around his house from a distance.

At first, the cowherd thought it was because he had been on the mountain for too long this time, and the villagers were afraid that something might happen to him, so they came to him.But when he got closer and closer to the villagers, the cowherd knew that things were definitely not what he thought.

The villagers surrounding his house are all young and middle-aged, and not just a few people, but almost the whole village is here.Over the years, the cowherd has indeed gradually become popular in the village, but it is impossible for so many people to come out to find him.In particular, several hunters carried bows and knives on their backs, while others who had weapons carried weapons, and those without weapons also held sticks and hoes. All of them had fierce resentment on their faces.

Someone had already seen the cowherd, and the cowherd knew something was wrong and wanted to run away, but he saw the village chief who took the lead in the crowd.

He can ignore other people, but the village head is very kind to him. Without him, the cowherd's bones are now reduced to ashes.

But there is kindness, he is not a fool, the way of the experts in the village is more vicious than the way of the king, it can be seen that these people are not kind, and he is on guard.He has great strength and fast speed, if he wants to escape from these villagers, it is not a problem.

——In fact, fortunately, the cowherd is back now, and the villagers have already discussed about adding medicine to his drinking water, or going to the city to report to the heavenly official.If that's the case, if the other party thinks it's not intentional, the cowherd will suffer a big loss.

The village chief stopped when he was about four or five feet away from the cowherd.

"Cowherd, tell me honestly, what did you do up the mountain?"

The cowherd used to bring some prey or wild vegetables and fruits as cover every time he came back from the mountain, but he was really negligent during this time, and now he has nothing.Hearing the village head's question, the cowherd hesitated for a while, but he actually managed to confuse the matter.But... why did you muddle through, why did you continue to live in the village?

He has tasted enough human feelings since he was a child, even when facing the village chief, the cowherd is grateful for his kindness, but he has no feelings.In other words, the only thing that made him feel warm in this life was the big snake.A few days ago, aunts and aunts always came to inquire about what they were thinking, of course the cowherd knew.These people are well-intentioned, but the cowherd has no desire to marry a wife.In particular, with his wife, the secret of the big snake on the mountain will be discovered one day.

So, at this time, the cowherd even began to feel a little happy.He went back and told Orochi that he was kicked out of the village, homeless and with no way out.It is better to recognize the big snake as the master and serve him for the rest of his life.

Unintentionally defending himself, the cowherd was only thinking of explaining to the village chief. As for what happened today, the cowherd didn't care much.

"I went up the mountain to find my life-saving benefactor."

"You murderer, pay back my son/nephew's life!" Before the village chief could answer, the four young men were about to rush towards the cowherd, but they were stopped by the people next to them.Seeing that he couldn't break free, the fattest one among the four even burst into tears, "My poor son—!"

The cowherd frowned. He thought it was the villagers who discovered the secret of the big snake, but why did people die?They are all from the same village, and the cowherds naturally know these people, so it seems that something happened to the fat man?

Although the cowherd wanted to leave, he didn't care about other things. He didn't want to take the blame for killing people.

"I've been looking for my benefactor since I went up the mountain for eight days. What does it have to do with Zhao Kui?"

"Little beast is still going to quibble when it's about to die!" Zhao Kui's father, Zhao Jin, stopped howling immediately, stood up like a madman with red eyes and rushed towards the cowherd.The person who was holding him didn't hold him for a while, and let him rush over like this.

But Niu Huan'er is no longer the child who could not fight back despite being beaten and scolded. Although he has not learned kung fu, his eyesight and reaction are beyond the reach of ordinary people.Looking at Zhao Jin, the cowherd turned sideways, pushed his arm, tripped under his foot, and Zhao Jin fell into the mud with a thud.This fall was not light, Zhao Jin felt dizzy and his eyes were black.

When the others were in a hurry, they were about to rush up to save them, but Niu Shan raised his hands and said, "Don't move!" He stepped on Zhao Jin's shoulder.

When everyone saw it, they were afraid that the cowherd would step on Zhao Jin's neck crookedly, which would kill him.So those who just rushed up all retreated.

Seeing them retreating, the cowherd moved his feet off Zhao Jin's body and pushed them away a few steps.Immediately, Zhao Jin's two brothers came up and drove him down who was still dizzy.At this time, the hot-blooded people remembered that it was the cowherd who took care of the two big wild boars by himself.The wild boars had thick skin and sharp teeth, and four or five hunters would not dare to provoke them when they encountered them on the mountain. At that time, he leaned on a stone the size of a human head on the ridge of the field and smashed the two wild boars to death.

This kind of strength, as well as this kind of ferocity, are not comparable to ordinary people.In particular, she still has some weirdness on her body, maybe she has contacts with goblins and ghosts.Even if they use force to keep him here, some of them will be popular and even lose their lives.The young and middle-aged people present all have families and are the pillars of the family. If they throw their lives here, what will happen to their families?

At this time, the momentum of the crowd suddenly vented.

In fact, they didn't know this. At that time, the two wild boars felt the smell of the cowherd and their legs were already weak.When the cowherd rushed up, he hardly moved, allowing the cowherd to crush them to death.As for Uncle Dange who was present at the time, he was so frightened that he passed out, and he didn't see what happened.

"You said that the matter has nothing to do with you, how do you know that it was Zhao Kui who had the accident?" Once the momentum weakened, no one wanted to fight hard, so let's be reasonable.

"Didn't the uncles say that I should pay back Zhao Kui's life?" Niu Guan'er spread his hands, "I had nothing to do with Zhao Kui, and I never saw him before I went up the mountain. In fact, I still don't know the truth. What happened."

"My Goudan, Xiaokuizi from Zhao Jin's family, and Mandou from Zhao Shi's family came back with a strange disease after visiting your house! Little Kuizi couldn't hold on and went away last night, what's so weird about your house! ?”

"What's weird about my house? There are four walls and one roof, one bed and one pot, all uncles and uncles must have seen it before?" Niu Sheung'er smiled wryly and spread his hands. He didn't even have a rice vat to store food in his house. It's really a starving mouse's house, "Besides, I don't know my younger brothers well. I'm gone. What are they doing at my house?"

Everyone looked at each other. When they first came, they were still scared and cautious, afraid that there was something wrong with this place.But... there is really nothing to hide here.How do you hide when you see there at a glance?

It stands to reason to catch traitors and doubles, and to catch thieves and take stolen goods.At the beginning, the cowherd's mother was caught by someone, but now if it is said that the cowherd made three teenagers ill, what is the evidence?But it was true that something happened to the children after they left his house.As for why those three people came to his house... Niu Huan'er didn't know, but someone who was there knew, even better than him.

Brother Dan misunderstood that Xiaozao wanted to marry the cowherd, and he had always been unhappy with the cowherd. Many people knew this.But it can't be said that they are happy to see the success, and they don't think it's a big deal, and no one stopped it.As for Mandou...do you even need to think about it?How Zhao Shi treats his wife and children is because he thinks he has covered it up well, but in fact, who in the village doesn't know?But that is someone else's housework, and others can't control it.Naturally, Mandou and Niuherd didn't deal with it either.The fat man followed Brother Dan, wherever Brother Dan went, so did the fat man.

But in the end, the most innocent fat man lost his life.Zhao Ju has four sons, but only the second son, Zhao Jin, has a fat boy. All the uncles in the family dote on him and protect him like a baby.In fact, regardless of whether Niu Sheung'er is the murderer or not, the suspicion between Zhao Ju's family, the village head's family and Zhao Shi's family is certain.

At this time, a man suddenly stood up and smashed the broken water tank that the cowherd had put outside with a hoe.There is a gap in this water tank, and it can only hold [-]% of the water, so it has been thrown here and no one wants it.

It was Zhao Shi who smashed the water tank. Even if the water tank could only be filled to [-]% full, the water that poured out from the hoe soaked the entire courtyard in an instant.Zhao Shi looked at the ground, pointed to a place that had obviously softened, and said, "There's something buried under here, dig!"
