Chapter 497: Snake Cage

Sponsored Content

Duan Cheng came back quickly and brought back a bundle of bamboos.
The young patient took his sword and began to cut the bamboo.
He cut the bamboo into thin pieces.

“Make more, let’s make a few more cages and catch 8 to 10 snakes tomorrow.
With this, we will not only eat snake soup but also snake skewer, how wonderful would it be!” Duan Cheng also hasn’t eaten meat for a long time now.
So remembering the taste of snake soup, he couldn’t help but be greedy.

When the snake trap was being made, Bai Zhi and Duan Cheng found it interesting, so they also tried making it together.
Later on, Doctor Shen also joined in.
The other two patients, who were able to move also joined in the fun.
More than a dozen basket was made with the help of many people.

Bai Zhi said with a smile: “If the snakes around here learn that we made so many traps for them, I’m sure they will run in a hurry to escape.”

Duan Cheng said: “I’m going to put out these cages so that I can eat snake soup tomorrow morning.”

The young patient smiled and said: “I’m not sure about that.
It also depends on your luck.
It’s already winter.
Although the snake hasn’t begun to hibernate, they rarely come out during this time.
It won’t be easy to catch a dozen of them.”

Duan Cheng said with a smile: “It’s not easy, but my luck has always been good.”

Bai Zhi said: “Add some oil fruit to the bait.
The smell of oil fruit is the favorite flavor of snakes.
As long as they are nearby, they will smell it.”

The young patient was surprised: “How did you know this method? This is our ancestral method of catching snakes.
Ordinary people don’t know about it.”

In modern times, there was nothing that people can’t know after getting interested to learn about something.
Sharing of information on the internet has been rampant for years, which also helps the world to develop.

The reason why people in ancient times were poor and short in knowledge, was because they cannot share information easily.
They also regard their discovery as private knowledge of their family, which slows down the development of the world.

Bai Zhi said with a smile: “I accidentally heard of it.
The people in our village know about this method.
It’s not a secret at all.”

Duan Cheng quickly looked for the avocado oil from the pile of medicinal herbs.
He uses this oil in his hair, but now he mixed it to the bait.
After putting the bait in the cages, he drove Bai Zhi’s carriage in the woods and put the trap everywhere.
He did this until dawn… …

Duan Cheng, who could barely open his eyes, fell asleep as soon as he returned to the small tent.

Bai Zhi couldn’t help but say to Doctor Shen: “Duan Cheng works really hard just to eat snake soup.”

Doctor Shen shook his head helplessly: “It’s not that he is greedy, it’s just the food in this military camp is too poor.
It’s very uncommon in the camp not to eat a little meat for 10 days or so.
However, this time, it took so long.
I didn’t even see oil meat for a month.
So it’s not only Duan Cheng, even me is feeling uncomfortable.”

Bai Zhi sighed: “If there is a market nearby, we can buy some ingredients to improve our lives.”

Doctor Shen waved his hand: “How will you find a market? Almost no one lives in this neighborhood.
The soldiers grow the vegetables in the military camp.
They don’t know how to grow anything else aside from the cabbage, so we can only eat cabbage every day.” Doctor Shen was very helpless and felt like he’ll become a cabbage soon.

“How come there are no injured patients today? Is there another truce?” Bai Zhi asked.

Doctor Shen nodded his head: “They said that Marshal Wang will bring 100,000 soldiers to the border today.
They will be stationed 5 miles away from here until the integration of the two armies, so there is another truce.”

Bai Zhi asked another question: “Is Marshal Wang from the capital? Can he fight?”
