chapter 18 Go to Jinjiling to catch scorpions

But I saw that the most precious poison sac on the head of the red-headed centipede was empty, without any venom.

And the little black snake with chopstick lengths was lazily resting on its side.

There was still a little bit of black juice left on its mouth, and I knew it was centipede venom.

Kame Austin originally studied medicine, and after reading the contents of the Medicine Chapter and the Ten Thousand Poisons Chapter of the Five Elements Qi Refining Technique, he learned that the most valuable thing about this big centipede is the venom in the poison sac.

Without these venoms, the medical value of this giant centipede is estimated to be only one-third of its original value.

This made Lin Feng angry, but he remained silent.

Who made this little black snake his pet?

"Kame Austin, what are you doing there?"

Bridget asked curiously when she saw that Kame Austin had been staying in the collapsed room.

The west wing collapsed during a heavy rainstorm, and there was no money to repair it.

"Oh, it's okay, I'll get something."

Kame Austin bent down and picked up a shovel, but then put it down.

Then, he stretched out his hand towards the little black snake.

The little black snake immediately happily crawled into his palm and then entered his pocket.

Kame Austin placed the centipede body more concealed, and then left.

He was afraid that Bridget would be frightened if she saw a big centipede or a small black snake.

Therefore, I plan to tell her after some time.

After leaving the door, Kame Austin took the snakeskin bag and headed straight towards Jinji Ridge.

When he came back this morning, he saw a lot of red-headed scorpions on a steep and hidden rock in Jinjiling. He wanted to catch some and sell them in the drugstore in town to see if anyone would buy them.

After all, this red-headed scorpion is also a medicinal material.

And that place was covered with many thorns, and no one had ever been there.

Through the window behind the kitchen, Bridget saw Kame Austin's back. She couldn't help but shook her head and sighed: "This guy's stupid disease won't happen again. He doesn't even want to work for me. It's so broad daylight." Why are you carrying a snakeskin bag to Jinji Ridge? The mountains are so light that there are only some weeds and thistles."

When we arrived at the rocky rocky area in the northeast of Jinji Ridge, we could see a lot of scorpions swimming in the crevices of the rocks because of the shady area.

Kame Austin didn't care, squatted down, quickly grabbed the scorpion with his hands, and threw it into the snakeskin bag.

He was very fast, and by the time the scorpion reacted and was about to stab his hand with its tail pincers, it would already be inside the snakeskin bag.

Soon, Kame Austin caught all the scorpions on the surface, which was conservatively estimated to weigh about ten kilograms.

He opened his clairvoyant eyes and saw that there were many scorpions hidden deep in the cracks of the rocks, and there were also many scorpions hidden in the gaps under the rocks.

These scorpions usually only come out to look for food at night, but not during the day.

At the same time, I also saw that there are many scorpions growing here because there are many small insects.

So he stopped.

I thought about sending these scorpions to the town drugstore to ask for the price. If the market is good, I would continue to catch them at night.

Suddenly, his heart moved. He took out the little black snake and placed it on the stone. He also caught a big scorpion and put it in front of the little black snake to see if it would eat it.

Unexpectedly, this little black snake flicked its body like a bolt of black lightning, pounced on it, bit the scorpion in one bite, and then sucked up its venom.

After a few bullets, the scorpion died.

Soon, the little black snake gave up on the dead scorpion.

"Oh, it turns out that you use venom as food. I thought you were a carnivore."

Kame Austin suddenly understood. As soon as he stretched out his palm, the little black snake tamely crawled into his palm and returned to his pocket.

I thought to myself, this little black snake actually uses venom as food. No wonder it wants to eat the venom of the giant poisonous centipede.

I don’t know how powerful its venom is.

However, no matter how powerful the venom is, it doesn't seem to do much harm to me.

Five minutes later, Kame Austin went home with the snake skin.

"Sister Bridget, I'm going to show you something. Don't be afraid."

Kame Austin stopped Bridget, who was about to hoe the corn field, and said with a smile.

"What the hell, it's like I picked up this treasure, I'm so happy."

Kame Austin had a happy smile on his face, which made Bridget very curious.

She moved closer to look at the snakeskin bag and saw the dense scorpions inside. She was so frightened that she almost fell to the ground.

One hand tightly protected Cathy Austin who was carrying it on his back, for fear that Cathy Austin would fall out of the backpack.

"Kame Austin, are you catching these scorpions to sell them for money?"

After a pause, Bridget immediately asked in surprise.

She seems to know how Kame Austin makes money.

She is also a woman from a rural area, so of course she knows that scorpions can be sold for money.

But this kind of mountain scorpion is difficult to catch, and it is highly poisonous. It is usually found in steep rocks, so there is a great risk.

So few people are willing to catch this kind of mountain scorpion and sell it for money.

"Yes, Sister Bridget, why don't we go to Baomi Field today? Let's go to Taoyuan Town to sell scorpions together, okay?"

Kame Austin tied the mouth of the snakeskin bag tightly with a rope to prevent the scorpions from running out. He looked at Bridget with a smile and said, "If we have money, we will buy a few bottles of herbicide. This will save us from having to hoe the corn fields every day." Grass. You know, how many days does it take to manually hoe an area of ​​more than ten acres?"

"I won't go. You can go alone. By the way, you can borrow Beatrice Holland's electric car to go."

Bridget thought for a while and declined.

"No, after what happened with Howie Brennan, I don't feel comfortable leaving you two at home."

Kame Austin said without hesitation, reaching out to hug Cathy Austin who was opening his arms towards him.

"Well, okay then, let's go to Beatrice Holland to borrow an electric car."

Bridget hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

To be honest, after what happened yesterday, she didn't dare to stay home alone with her child.

If Niu Howie Brennan or other second-rate people came to trouble her, she would be in big trouble.

After all, their home is located at the end of Jiaantao Village, and their nearest neighbors are more than 200 meters away from them.

This is why Howie Brennan dared to say arrogantly yesterday that no one would come to save her no matter how loud she screamed.

Soon, Kame Austin took Bridget and her daughter to the village infirmary.

I happened to see Beatrice Holland talking on the phone.

She nodded to Kame Austin and the others, and continued to make phone calls and write and draw in her notebook.

Two minutes later, Beatrice Holland put down the phone and smiled at Bridget: "Come all of you, what can I do?"

"Doctor Beatrice, I would like to borrow your electric car for a trip to town, is that okay?"

Before Bridget could speak, Kame Austin spoke directly.

"Oh, that's it. I happen to be going to the town to buy some medicines. How about I take you with me?"

Beatrice Holland said.

"But, I want to take my Sister Bridget and her mother with me. They haven't been to the town for a long time."

Kame Austin looked at the new electric car and estimated whether it could seat three adults and a child.

"Okay. But Kame Austin, can you drive a tricycle? My uncle has a tricycle at home. We will drive that tricycle to the town. Otherwise, my electric car will not be able to seat three adults and it will not be safe."

Beatrice Holland thought for a while and then suggested.

"No problem. I took the driver's license exam when I was in college."
