Chapter 5305 The Treasure of the House
Wan Qingyuan had no choice but to get up in despair and move towards Wan Shiniang.
“What a fool!” Wan Shiniang glared and shouted.
Wan Qingyuan hurried to Wan Shiniang, "Madam..."
He smiled apologetically and bent over, looking pitiful. How could he still have any masculinity?
Wan Shiniang glared at him fiercely, raised her greasy and plump hands and pulled him behind her. Her majestic eyes swept over the embarrassed clansmen in front of her, and her eyes fell directly on the gray-haired old clan leader. .
"Second uncle, you are really old-hearted. The old guy with his neck buried in the loess is still thinking about tribute tea?"
The old patriarch stood up slowly from the crowd. Looking at the fat woman sitting in the front seat, he raised his hand to pat the dust off her body, straightened her clothes, and stood there with her waist straight.
"Shi Niang, why do you say that I am also your father's biological brother and your biological uncle? Is that how you call me?" the old patriarch asked.
Wan Shiniang rolled her eyes: "I will not accept Yi Lao's old tricks. I only admire strength and ability. Whoever has the ability can control the ownership of the tribute tea."
The old patriarch sneered, "Okay, you guys have the skills. Is your skill just to raise this weird snake to scare us?"
Wan Shiniang glanced sideways at the big python next to her, "Second uncle, you My eyes are really dim. The little earthworm is not a strange snake. It is the treasure of our family. Didn’t my grandfather, your father, tell you?”
The old patriarch was surprised. .
"What? You mean, this python is the one your grandfather picked up from Tea Mountain back then?" He asked in surprise.
Wan Shiniang raised her eyebrows.
The old patriarch looked at the big python again and was even more surprised.
The juniors next to them were confused, "Old patriarch, what's going on? That snake is the treasure of our Wan family? Isn't this too scary?"
The old patriarch glared at the junior who spoke: "Be careful what you say and do."
The junior shrank his neck: "Then give it to us Tell me about the origin of this big snake!”
The old patriarch looked at the big python with black gas all over his body with a complex expression, “Back then, my father, your grandfather, your great-grandfather, thought he was still a child. When I was a teenager, our Wan family was unknown in Leigang Town and we didn’t have enough to eat.”
"Then one day my father went up the mountain to pick tea leaves and encountered an eagle fighting with a python."
"The eagle couldn't beat it, so a group of eagles were called over. Seeing that the python was about to be pecked to death, I On impulse, my father rushed over to help the python. "
"One of his eyes was scratched by an eagle and he became a one-eyed dragon. Strangely enough, the python turned out to be spiritual and raised him. some time Later, it actually came into my father's dream."
"In the dream, the python could speak human words and taught him a set of tea-making recipes. One of the teas he made was Qing. Yuanchun Tea. "
"It is said that when Qingyuanchun Tea was made, most of the people in Leigang Town smelled the fragrance, and they all came to the small thatched houses of my father's house to smell it. ”
"It was with this recipe for tea frying that our Wan family gradually became rich. Our Wan family's tea left Jiangning County, passed through Qing'an County, went to Changhuai Prefecture, and finally entered the capital and was delivered to the emperor. ”
“My father gave birth to me when he was thirty-five years old. That year, our Qingyuan Spring Tea Festival in Wanjia never served tea. It has been almost seventy years!”
The juniors below were dumbfounded. From the moment he was born, he knew that he had given birth to a good child. He was a member of the Gongchawan family in Leigang Town.
But I didn’t know that my ancestor’s fortune was due to saving a snake, and it was the snake who taught him the recipe for fried tea.
“This is too mysterious!” someone muttered.
Another person said: "So, the big python in front of you is the snake that grandpa (great-grandpa) saved back then? Then isn't this snake hundreds of years old?"
"Since it is our town. Why did the treasure of the house fall into the hands of Wan Shiniang and be used by her alone? "
"Yes, the tail just swung over and almost killed me..."
"Could it be that the blood of the chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep in the backyard was sucked dry by this snake? Right?" The voice gradually faded away, and a pair of eyes shot towards Wan Shiniang like sharp swords.
"Wan Shiniang, today, you must give us an explanation. Why is this snake in your hands? Didn't you say that the snake returned to the mountains and only set up a memorial tablet at home? Tell me, what did you do to this snake? What? "
The old patriarch pointed at Wan Shiniang angrily, as if he would not give up until he gave an explanation today.
Wan Shiniang was peeling peanuts and feeding them to her mouth while listening to these people talking. At this moment, she threw away the peanut shells in her hands and leaned forward: "Have you finished speaking? After that, let me say a few words. ."
She stood up and looked at He glanced at everyone condescendingly and said: "I ordered people to kill the chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep in the backyard to collect their blood to worship the big snake."
"In the past seventy years, our families have been able to prosper and make money. It’s all this big snake that’s protecting me.”
"It's only natural to offer blood to it. Originally, I didn't want to make a big deal out of this matter, but you people are so ignorant that you have to come over and make trouble. Are there too many good times? I can make it happen for you!"
Follow! As Wan Shiniang finished speaking, the big python suddenly opened its bloody mouth and spit out the smelly wind of blood at the people in front of it.
The hall suddenly burst into cries of ghosts and howls.
The old patriarch slammed the crutch in his hand on the table, "Wan Shiniang, you have gone too far...ah!"
Before he finished speaking, one of the old patriarch's arms Then it reached the mouth of the big python, chewed it three or two times and swallowed it directly into its belly.
Everyone was stunned. They all froze on the spot and trembled, begging...
Looking at the old patriarch who was screaming in a pool of blood, Wan Shiniang stood up with satisfaction.
"Second uncle, you have lived a life of food and clothing, all thanks to our family's treasure. If you get something in this world, you have to pay for it, so eating one of your arms is yours. It's an honor."
While speaking, a slave beside Wan Shiniang got the signal and stepped forward and stuffed a black pill into the old patriarch's mouth.
Something magical happened.
The old patriarch, who was still screaming in agony, slowly calmed down after taking the black pill, the bleeding stopped, and he could even lie aside and breathe heavily.
And the ferocious python from before even used its head to nuzzle the old patriarch intimately.
Everyone was dumbfounded again.
Wan Shiniang said: "For ten taels of silver and one pill, if you take it, you will be blessed by the treasure of the house. Whoever wants it, hurry up."
Everyone was excited, everyone Undecided.
"What will happen if we don't buy it?" someone asked bravely.
Wan Shiniang said: "Now that the treasure of the town is hungry, I can't guarantee that it will randomly pick a few people to make snacks."
"Twelve taels of silver is too expensive, ten thousand taels of silver are too expensive. Shi Niang, we are all members of the Wan family, They are cousins..."
"Don't have a relationship with my aunt, it will cost you money or your life. I will count to three, I won't sell it until it's too late! One, two..."
"I'll buy it from me. Buy..."
Everyone rushed to sell out all the black pills. They didn't have enough money with them, so they wrote IOUs.
Seeing these people spend money, buy pills, take them to save their lives, and then leave in embarrassment, Wan Shiniang raised a cold smile on her lips.
