After finishing the meal, the sky turned completely dark. There is a cool breeze, and the heat of the day is fading away, replaced by the coolness of the evening breeze.
"Ma Pang, are you going out?" Yang Cheng asked. He thought of a good activity that he could do on this summer night.
"What are you doing out there?" Fatty Ma asked. Because he is fat, he is not willing to exercise much. Because he has little activity, his fatness has always existed.
Yang Qing, who was playing alone after eating, became excited when he heard Yang Cheng say he wanted to go out. There is no way, who makes him younger, Yang Cheng and Ma Fatty are both seven or eight years older than him, and they are not willing to play with small children for a long time. Yue Ji is only willing to follow Yang Cheng and can talk to Qing'er for a while. . As for Qing'er, at this age she strongly differentiates between men and women, and she doesn't want to be with Yang Qing, which leads to his isolation.
Now I heard that Yang Cheng said he wanted to go out to play, which was exactly what Yang Cheng wanted. He jumped over from the side and shouted excitedly: "Brother, let's go to Laoou Bay."
??Laoou Bay is to the north of the village. There is a large sunken pit halfway up the mountain. A mountain spring gurgling from the edge of the pit can just fill the pit. Because there is a big willow tree next to the pit and many crows build nests here, it is called Laoyu Bay.
In summer, Laoyu Bay is the favorite of the teenagers in the village. After a day in the sun, the water in the bay is cool and yet warm, so getting into the water will not hurt your body, but it can also wash away the heat of the day, so most of the young people in the village will After dinner, we ran to Laoyu Bay to jump into the water and play for a while.
After all, Yang Cheng has grown up, so how can he hang out with the children again. He shook his head slightly and said, "Let's go catch the cicada monkey."
Hearing what Yang Cheng said, Yang Qing was also happy. As long as he could go out and play, it was better than being bored at home. Moreover, these cicada monkeys are rich in nutrients and delicious. After catching them, they are washed, boiled to death, marinated in salt, and then fried in a pan. They taste salty, crispy, and are a delicious dish.
Fatty Ma didn't want to move at first, but when he heard Yang Qing shouting about eating fried cicada monkey, his mouth started to drool. Although he didn't know exactly what it looked like, looking at Yang Qing's excited look, he knew that this food was very delicious. .
"Chengzi, what exactly is a cicada monkey?" Fatty Ma asked.
"It's the larvae of the cicada when it faces metamorphosis." Yang Cheng explained to him. After a few years of living underground, the cicada grows up, crawls out of the ground, relies on instinct to find a tree, climbs on it, metamorphoses, and grows into an adult. Only then is it called a cicada. The whole process from being unearthed to transforming is like a monkey climbing a tree, so they are called cicada monkeys, also called cicada monkeys.
"Cicada, I know!" Fatty Ma shouted, indicating that he was also a knowledgeable person. However, his expression immediately darkened, "But I haven't really seen it."
"Brother Ma, what's there? Can't you see it when you come this time?" Qing'er advised Fatty Ma not to take it to heart. Since you are here to play, you can try all kinds of interesting things about life in the countryside.
"Well, let's go out and catch the cicadas quickly. If we get there too late, there won't be any more." Fatty Ma came back to his senses. I want to play at Yang Cheng's place for a while. As Qing'er said, what interesting things in the countryside can't be experienced?
Everyone had nothing to do, so they all clamored to go out and play together without Yang Cheng¡¯s greeting. Putting on a flashlight, Yang Cheng led them out of the house and straight to the woods to the east of the village.
Now that life has improved, fewer people go out to catch cicadas at night. Only children who are curious will ask a few friends to catch monkeys together. There happened to be no one today. When Yang Cheng and the others arrived, there was only a silent forest waiting for them.
There is only one flashlight to take care of the girl. Of course it is held by Yueji. She, Qing'er and Yang Qing are in a group of three. Yang Cheng and Fatty Ma were in pairs. After entering the grove, each found a row of trees and looked over one by one, looking for the newly unearthed cicada monkeys.
Although Fatty Ma had seen the appearance of a cicada in a book, he had no idea what a cicada monkey looked like. After asking Yang Cheng and getting a general understanding, he ran around the woods, eager to catch one with his own hands first.
The light in the woods is dark and it is impossible to see clearly. Yueji and the others brought flashlights and shined them up and down around the tree. Of course, they could easily find the whereabouts of the cicada monkey. After a while, Qing'er shouted that he had caught one.
Hearing Qing'er's words, Fatty Ma quickly ran over and took a good look at what the cicada monkey looked like under the weak light of the flashlight. After seeing it, he yelled "I know!" and turned around and ran to the other side, widened his eyes, put his head in front of the tree trunk, and searched carefully.
"Haha, I saw one!" Fatty Ma shouted loudly. Just now he didn'tIf you know what a monkey looks like, even if you have feelings, you won't think that it is that. Of course you won't find it if you run around. After seeing the truth about the cicada monkey from Qing'er, it will be much easier to find it again.
Fatty Ma has never caught cicada monkeys before, and he still doesn¡¯t know their habits. It¡¯s just a coincidence that he occasionally sees one. It¡¯s not as good as Yang Cheng and the others, who can easily see the cicada monkeys by walking around the tree.
After touching the tree bumps several times in a row, Fatty Ma became impatient. "Cicada, monkey, where are you?" he yelled, wandering around and looking up the tree trunk.
"Haha!" Fatty Ma shouted in his heart. While searching anxiously, he saw a black shadow lying on the tree trunk. The black shadow was exactly the size of a cicada monkey, and it was still shaking slightly. Isn't this the cicada monkey climbing up?
With a bit of pride, Fatty Ma took a step forward, took action like lightning, and directly pinched the black shadow.
"Ah!" Fatty Ma pinched the black shadow and immediately felt something was wrong. Then, he felt a rope-like object quickly wrapped around his arm, making him couldn't help shouting.
"What's going on?" Yang Cheng was closest to Fatty Ma and heard that his cry was different from before. There was obvious fear in his voice. He quickly asked and ran to his side.
"Yueji, come here." Yang Cheng shouted. Put the flashlight in Yue Ji's hand and ask her to come over. With the light, she can see the specific reason clearly.
Hearing Yang Cheng¡¯s call, Yue Ji agreed and ran over in a few steps, ¡°Brother, what¡¯s the matter?¡±
"Look what this thing is in my hand." Fatty Ma called Yue Ji before Yang Cheng could speak and asked her to shine a flashlight on his arm.
"Okay." Yueji agreed and adjusted the flashlight to an angle, so that the light shone on Fatty Ma's arm.
"ah!"
Several exclamations sounded together. Whether it was Fatty Ma or Yang Cheng, including Yue Ji, they were all shocked when they saw the object on Fatty Ma's arm.
Where did Fatty Ma catch the cicada monkey? At this moment, a small light green snake was wrapped around his arm, and Fatty Ma's two fingers pinched the head of the green snake. This position is also suitable, just right so that the green snake can't bite him.
It was dark just now. Although he was scared, Fatty Ma could still hold on. After all, he didn't know what it was. Apart from his arm being wrapped around, he was not hurt. But it was different now. Under the illumination of the light, his eyes could clearly see the appearance of the green snake. How could this keep him calm?
With a flick of his wrist, Fatty Ma wanted to throw the green snake out. But he forgot that the green snake was wrapped around his arm, so he could throw it away if he wanted to. Moreover, when he loosened his fingers, he gave up control of the green snake.
After being freed, the green snake naturally opened its mouth and bit Fatty Ma's palm to vent its anger at being caught.
"Ah! I was bitten by a snake!" Fatty Ma was so frightened that he could only scream loudly.
"Yueji, what should we do?" Yang Cheng asked Yueji. What happened just now was too sudden. Before Yang Cheng could come up with a solution, Fatty Ma gave up on controlling the snakehead, and instead got himself injured. At this time, Yang Cheng had no choice but to ask Yue Ji. After all, she was a fairy who had been practicing for hundreds of years.
"Brother, don't worry, try to use your immortal power to suppress this green snake." Yue Ji did not take action herself, but communicated with her spiritual thoughts to tell Yang Cheng what to do. After all, Yang Cheng has just started cultivating immortals. Most of the time, his thinking is that of an ordinary person, and he cannot remember that he has immortal power.
"Yeah, why didn't I think of it? Let's try it first. If it doesn't work, you have to take action immediately. Don't let the green snake hurt Ma Fat again." Yang Cheng agreed, and according to the records in the Changchun Jue, he mobilized the immortal power , aim at the green snake and suppress it.
After all, Green Snake was still young, so it only took a few struggles for Yang Cheng to control it. Following Yang Cheng's instructions, Green Snake let go of his body and fell to the ground like a dead snake.
Fatty Ma didn't know what happened in secret. When he saw the green snake bit him, it fell straight to the ground. He couldn't help but be curious and asked strangely, "Chengzi, what's going on? Why did the snake bite?" When I take a bite, I am not poisoned, but it is poisoned and dies?"
"Brother, this green snake is not poisonous." Yue Ji told Yang Cheng in her mind. Yang Cheng nodded. He had lived here for a long time and knew that the snakes here were non-venomous.
Looking at Fatty Ma¡¯s frightened face, Yang Cheng laughed, ¡°You are eating food made with gutter oil and drinking alcohol mixed with melamine.??'s milk, a Sudanese red egg, some clenbuterol pork, some methanol-blended wine, a cup of expired flavored tea After being nurtured like this, you will already be invulnerable to all poisons, just a little green What does a snake mean? Even if a lion or tiger bites you, you will only end up being poisoned to death. "
"Fuck you!" After being teased a few times, and feeling no discomfort, Fatty Ma finally felt a little calmer. Looking at the green snake lying straight on the ground again, I asked doubtfully, "Did you really poison it to death?"
