Chapter 169 Emergency Situation
"Dad, Mom! Help! Help!" Qinghai, who was not far away, kicked his legs around wildly, as if trying to get rid of something.
When Yu Qingshu heard the shouting, he rushed over there immediately, and the people behind him followed closely.
Yu Qingshu saw Yu Qinghai's actions before he even got close.
He was so anxious that he shouted: "Xiao Hai! What on earth is going on? What are you doing?"
Yu Qinghai's forehead was covered with sweat. A closer look revealed that there was a snake the same color as dead grass biting his calf on his left leg.
No matter how Yu Qinghai shook off the snake, it held on tightly and refused to let go.
Yu Qinghai cried out in fear with a sad face:
"Dad, don't come over here! Go find a stick first. I've been bitten by a snake and it won't let go!"
Yu Qinghai was also afraid that the snake would hurt Yu Qingshu, so he would not let the snake get close to him no matter what.
At this time, other people also came over. Hua Qinglu was so anxious that tears kept falling. She cried and said:
"My son, don't worry! I'll go find a thicker stick and beat this beast away!"
After Hua Qinglu finished speaking, he was also in a panic and looked everywhere for a wooden stick.
They had just burned all the firewood they had prepared, so they could only look for it nearby.
Yu Qingshu really couldn't find a stick, so he just picked up the big knife on the carriage and ran towards Yu Qinghai.
Fearing that Yu Qinghai might worry, he shouted hastily:
"Don't be afraid, Xiao Hai! Dad has found it, and I will come and chop it to death right away!"
Seeing Yu Qingshu running over, the people around him made way for him.
At this time, Yu Qinghai's calf was bleeding a lot, and he didn't know why the snake just kept biting his leg and wouldn't let go.
Yu Qingshu came closer and saw that it was a spicy strip about one meter long, but the whole snake looked skinny.
Yu Qinghai endured the pain in his calf and said, "Dad, give me the knife! Let me do it. I'm afraid you'll chop my leg again later!"
After hearing this, Yu Qingshu cursed in his heart: "You little bastard, you don't even trust your father!"
He did not stop his movements and handed the knife directly to Yu Qinghai, letting him do it himself.
Yu Qinghai took the knife and saw that the snake still didn't let go of its mouth.
He made up his mind and chopped the snake directly. Soon the snake was split into two halves, deader than dead.
But the snake's head was still biting his calf and didn't let go.
Yu Qinghai threw the knife on the ground and prepared to pry the snake's head away from his calf.
The others gathered around and prepared to help him get the snake head off.
Yu Qingqing observed it carefully, but she couldn't tell whether the snake was poisonous or not.
To be on the safe side, she stopped Yu Qinghai and interrupted him:
"Brother, wait a moment. Your calf is bleeding a lot, although you look fine now.
But after all, I was bitten by a snake, and I don’t know if there will be any hidden dangers in the future.
First, rinse your wound with the water in the water bag, and then remove the wound.
And the red fruit I gave you before, you can eat it before you leave.
Especially you, big brother. When you get the snake head off, you can eat the fruit."
Yu Qingqing opened the lid of the water bag and handed it to Yu Qinghai, asking him to pour the water directly onto his calves.
Yu Qingshu, who was standing next to him, knew that his daughter was afraid of dead things.
So he waited until the blood was almost washed away before he carefully and slowly separated the snake's head.
Yu Qingqing kept her head slightly turned the whole time. No one knew why, but she probably wasn't that scared when she saw a living snake.
But if you see a dead snake, you will feel an inexplicable fear in your heart.
Yu Qingshu swung the snake's head to the side with force. There was a "click" sound in the grass, and the snake's head was buried in the weeds.
The bleeding on Yu Qinghai's calf miraculously stopped, and he remembered what Yu Qingqing had just said.
He then took out from his arms a red fruit that Hua Qinglu had given him. He bit it with a crunching sound and ate it with great enjoyment.
The fruit has plump flesh, is thick and juicy, and tastes extremely sweet. It is a rare delicacy on the road of fleeing famine.
Yu Qingshu, who was watching his silly son eating, felt disgusted and scolded him:
"Okay, Xiaohai! There's nothing wrong with your calf. The blood is red and it doesn't look like you've been poisoned.
Let’s get out of here as soon as possible! We don’t know if we will encounter anything else.”
Hua Qinglu stopped crying when she saw that her son was fine.
Because she had just cried, her eyes were swollen like walnuts and she endured the discomfort in her eyes.
Then he joined in and said, "Yes! Xiao Hai! Let's go over first!
The grass here doesn’t look very deep, but I still encountered a snake. I’m so unlucky!
Wait a minute, mother, I'll bandage your wound.
It will be fine in a few days. Fortunately, we have a cart now, so we don’t have to walk too far, so it’s not a big problem.” Hua Qinglu said, and Yu Qingmei supported him as he walked towards the cart.
Yu Qingqing saw that her elder brother had almost dealt with the situation, so she took a walk around the area.
Her eyes were searching everywhere, but she didn't know what she was looking for.
After a long while, he seemed to have found what he wanted. Then he shouted:
"Dad, come over here with your big knife! I need your help. There is a dead tree here. I think this wood is pretty good!
Help me chop some wood for it, it will be useful to me!"
In front of Yu Qingqing was a tree that had been dead for who knows how long, but this tree seemed different from the other trees.
Although it was not a kind of precious wood, Yu Qingqing could tell at a glance that it was more than enough to make a handy tool with this wood.
So after seeing this tree, I gradually came up with my own plans in mind.
Yu Qingshu heard his daughter calling him from a distance, and he picked up the big knife on the ground.
In a short while, he took two steps at a time and ran to Yu Qingqing.
Because he ran fast just now, he couldn't stop panting and asked, "Qing'er, Dad is here! Whatever you need to do, just tell Dad!"
Yu Qingshu was staring at his daughter at this time, and the more he looked at her, the more he liked her.
He also didn't notice the big dead tree lying on the ground.
Yu Qingqing saw that he was tired from running, so she stepped forward to calm him down, patted him on the back and said:
"Dad, what do you think of this tree? Do you have any ideas?"
Yu Qingqing kept the question a secret and didn't say it directly.
Yu Qingshu felt relieved for a while and finally felt his throat was much better.
When I turned around and saw the big tree in front of me, I felt a little panicked for a moment.
I looked at it for a long time, but couldn't tell what was different about this tree.
