    Chapter 8

    In the end, Xie Ling had to share half of the cornbread to eat. Naturally, Shi Hua couldn't really starve him. When Xie Ling shook his head and refused to eat, Shi Hua deliberately darkened his face and looked angry.  , Xie Ling looked at her with some anxiety.

    Shi Hua said: "If you don't eat, you will be hungry and unable to walk. I won't be able to carry you, so we will sit here together until we starve to death."

    After hearing this, Xie Ling took it easy and ate the half of the wotou honestly. But even after eating, his stomach, which had been hungry for a long time, still screamed with hunger. A mere half of the wotou was only enough to cushion the stomach.  That¡¯s all.

    " If this continues, they will starve to death on the road, Shi Hua thought. She must find a way to keep them alive.

    In the evening, perhaps because of God's blessing, the two of them actually found a small river ditch. The ditch had not completely dried up, and there was a pool of water half a finger deep at the bottom. It looked a little turbid, but for them, this was already very good.  It¡¯s rare.

    Xie Ling picked two large leaves and made them into the shape of a small funnel. She carefully collected the turbid muddy water and held it there until it settled.

    Shi Hua looked around the river ditch, and her eyes fell on the thatch beside the river ditch. The grass blades were long and slender, and the edges were sharp. If you were not careful, your hand would be cut. It had not rained for a long time, and even the grass was yellow and thin, as if it were a piece of grass.  Put dry firewood.

    Shi Hua took out a knife, knelt on the ground and began to dig up the roots of the thatch. It took a quarter of an hour to dig out the roots of the thatch. The white thatch roots were stained with dry soil, and each section looked a little dirty.  , but there was no water to wash it with now, so Shi Hua could only wipe it carefully with linen cloth, then took a piece and stuffed it into Xie Ling's mouth.

    Xie Ling still held the muddy water in her hands and did not dare to move. After chewing for a moment, she tasted the long-lost sweet taste in her mouth. Surprise appeared on his dirty little face, and she said vaguely: "Sweet."

    Shi Hua was also holding a piece of thatch in her mouth. As if they had picked up some treasure, they both looked at each other and smiled brightly and happily.

    Shi Hua chewed the thatch root and continued digging until she touched a bit of moist soil. She was startled for a moment and twisted the bit of soil with her fingertips, with a slightly thoughtful look on her face.

    Shi Hua made up her mind and began to dig further, deliberately digging towards the moist and soft areas until a small, dark hole appeared.

    Xie Ling was attracted by the entrance of the cave, and he asked curiously: "Ajiu, what is that?"

    Shi Hua shook her head. She looked around for a moment, broke a branch from the side, and poked the hole. At this moment, she heard a hissing sound.

    Immediately afterwards, a long snake as thick as a child's arm swam out, spitting out its seeds, and Xie Ling let out a cry, as if she was startled.

    Shi Hua was also frightened. She only thought it was a mouse or a rabbit hole, but she never expected that it turned out to be a snake.

    The snake has black scales all over its body with brown markings on it. It has an oval head and spits out scarlet mussels. It makes a hissing sound. It is probably hiding underground to sleep. It doesn't want to be dug out of its nest, and it seems to have suffered.  Startled, he turned around and swam away.

    Xie Ling jumped up and exclaimed: "It's going to run away!"

    He shouted loudly and saw that the snake was about to swim into the grass. He threw away the leaves, picked up the big rocks at his feet, stepped forward and hit the snake.

    The snake was in pain for a moment and hissed violently. Its long body curled up into a ball and rolled desperately, trying to break away from the stone that was pressing it. It was so strong that it turned the stone over.

    Seeing that he was about to break free, Xie Ling became anxious and shouted: "Ajiu!"

    Shi Hua calmed down, took a step forward, stepped on the stone to prevent it from escaping smoothly, and then cut off the snake's head with a sharp knife.

    Unexpectedly, the knife was a little blunt, so it cut but did not cut off. Instead, the snake's head turned around and bit Shi Hua, and blood immediately poured out.

    She screamed in pain, and when she let go of her hand, the knife clattered to the ground. When Xie Ling saw it, she quickly pulled away from Shi Hua and ignored the knife. She picked up a stone and hit the snake's head with all her strength, one after another.  , he pursed his lips tightly, his expression looked a bit fierce, and his eyes had a wolf-like aura, which surprised Shi Hua.

    Until the snake was motionless and completely dead, Xie Ling showed no sign of stopping. Shi Hua stopped him and said, "It's already dead."

    Xie Ling was stunned for a moment, as if he had just come back to his senses. He threw down the stone, took Shi Hua's hand, and saw two people above it.Fear¡­¡­"

    Shi Hua sighed in his heart and whispered comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, we will survive."

    Probably because Shi Hua's voice was too determined, Xie Ling seemed to draw some strength from it. After a while, he cheered up again, holding Shi Hua's hand, and the two of them left the small courtyard together, and the moment they closed the far door,  Shi Hua could even hear the buzzing sounds of insects and flies coming from inside, which was terrifying, as if a gangrene attached to the bones had been following them.

    It wasn't until the two of them walked back to the village that they got rid of the tiny sounds of insects and flies. But now, even when they saw the open yard, they didn't dare to go in. Xie Ling simply picked up a large stone and smashed it open.  At the gate of a courtyard, the two of them were going to rest here for a night.

    Nothing nearby was moved. When they entered the kitchen, they were surprised to find that there was still a little water in the jar. Shi Hua and Xie Ling took care of the dead snake, burned it on the stove and ate it. It was a full meal.

    Today, after a long journey, fighting snakes and being frightened, the two soon became sleepy and fell asleep cuddling together.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
