Quick Transmigration: Reversing the Life of a Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character
Chapter 412 A Heroine Wandering the Martial Arts World
Suddenly, a thick, giant snake burst out of the ground, but it did not attack immediately. Instead, it stopped in place, its head raised high, as if confirming something.
Ah Jin leaped forward. The giant snake slowly dodged his first attack, but not the second. He knew snakes well and easily found its vital spot, killing it.
The speed was so fast that Wu Yuan felt a little dazed. She watched as the giant snake fell to the ground, twitched a few times, and then became still.
Just as she was about to lift her leg to get closer, she saw that Ah Jin's expression and posture became even more wary, and she raised her blood-stained hand to make a gesture for her not to move.
Suddenly, another green snake shot out from Ah Jin's head, heading straight for where she was standing. Wu Yuan's pupils contracted slightly, and she instinctively squatted down and rolled on the spot.
Cui Er's target was behind her; it shot over her head and plunged into the soft soil.
Here, Ah Jin put his arm around her waist, stepped over the snake carcass on the ground, and landed about ten meters away.
"There's one more."
"Shall I give it a try?" Wu Yuan asked if she could fight.
Ah Jin sensed it through Cui Er and nodded: "I'll lure it out in a bit, you can try hitting it. Don't be afraid, I'll be watching from the side."
Wu Yuan nodded, drew her twin swords, and even had time to think to herself, "This child is teachable. Although she is a naive newbie, she has a strong learning ability. She can even comfort people like this."
A short while later, a giant snake, smaller than the previous one, emerged from the ground. Unlike the previous one, it struggled violently as soon as it came out, rolling on the ground and whipping its tail aimlessly, damaging all the nearby trees and bushes. It also kept rubbing its neck against the ground.
Ah Jin made a gesture in that direction, and Cui Er emerged from the giant snake's vital spot and returned to his hand.
The giant snake froze for a second, then immediately turned to run away, but Wu Yuan flew forward.
Ah Jin followed closely behind, but did not join the battle. Instead, he maintained a safe distance, protecting her.
Wu Yuan's lightness skill improved rapidly. She stepped forward and kicked the snake's head, which was trying to escape.
The giant snake didn't retaliate; it just shook its head and continued running.
Wu Yuan concentrated her inner strength into the blade and slashed at it. The giant snake, in pain, lashed out with its tail.
About half an hour later, Wu Yuan landed, looked at the giant snake she had killed, and breathed slightly: "This snake skin is worthless now."
"Snake skin? Didn't we sell it to the government? Didn't they say it was fine as long as the snake was killed?" Ah Jin stepped forward to support her, her hand resting on her waist. "Just now, you got slapped here, didn't you?"
"Hmm, it's nothing, it's probably just bluish." Wu Yuan moved her waist, feeling fine, and explained, "The government issued a notice to find someone to kill the snake to prevent it from harming the people. Five hundred taels of silver is the reward, but there are many valuable things on the snake, such as snake skin, snake gall, snake meat, etc., which is another source of income."
"Oh, so I can hunt snakes to sell in the future?"
"It's the same method. You didn't use poison, did you?" Wu Yuan affirmed. He was indeed an expert at dealing with snakes. The first giant snake only had a small wound at its seven-inch mark, and its skin was perfectly intact.
"No, we don't need poison to deal with them." Ah Jin shook his head. He had poison on him, and the medicinal herbs he used for processing were either picked by himself or bought for him by Ah Ning.
Ah Ning is so good. He bought him medicinal herbs to play with. Such a good Ah Ning should belong to him forever!
He was left to guard the scene. Wu Yuan returned to the county town to notify the government to bring people to deal with the two snakes. This county town was relatively wealthy. After examining the two snake carcasses, the yamen runners, wanting to befriend the martial arts heroes, immediately doubled the reward money.
Including the money from selling the two snakes, the two of them earned nearly 1,500 taels of silver, which Wu Yuan exchanged for small silver notes and loose silver coins for him.
Ah Jin took the money bag and was quite intrigued for a while. She rummaged through the silver notes and rummaged through the loose silver, then went and bought two small purses, each containing twenty taels of silver notes and a few loose silver pieces. She stuffed one into her sleeve and hung the other on her waist.
He handed the money bag, which still contained most of the silver coins, to Wu Yuan.
"Hmm?" Wu Yuan asked.
"Here you go. The constable said that the money should be handed over to the women in the family to manage, and the men can just collect their pocket money."
"It's okay, our situation is different from his. You basically killed these two snakes, so the money should be yours anyway." Wu Yuan didn't care about the money. She also knew very well that if it weren't for A Jin, she wouldn't have taken the challenge at all.
"No, I want to give it to you. I earn money to give to you." Ah Jin stubbornly stuffed the money bag into her arms.
Wu Yuan felt a little strange. He was different from Wenren Ming. She didn't feel anything when Wenren Ming spent money to buy her things, but she always paid for the big expenses herself.
Ah Jin has hardly experienced a normal life before. Should she not let him become too dependent on her? After all, she might very well let him down.
"Ah Jin, actually, everyone has a different lifestyle. For example, many people, even after getting married, still spend their own money separately."
"I don't understand, but anyway, I'm giving you my money." Ah Jin was inexplicably a little angry.
Wu Yuan sighed inwardly, "Let's take it slow."
"Okay, I'll keep it for now. Just let me know if you need it."
"If I need it, I'll go hunting again. That doctor said hunting can earn a lot of money."
Wu Yuan: "..."
His previous life consisted only of monotonous killing and survival. No normal person had taught him how to live, nor had he ever seen one. Along the way, he absorbed everything like a sponge, from the innkeepers' idle chatter to the yamen runners' trivial family matters. He would even apply what he learned to other situations.
Perhaps in a couple of years, he will be able to live independently, marry, have children, and live a secluded life in the mountains.
Wu Yuan smiled and said, "Okay, once we've spent all this money, we'll go hunting. By the way, what are you going to do with the snake gall bladder you kept?"
"Give Cuiyi and Cuier food." Ah Jin pointed to his head, where the two snakes usually hid in his hair.
Because the task of killing snakes required contacting the government, the two of them didn't always wear veils while in the county town. Wu Yuan glanced at the top of his head and said, "You need to dye your hair again."
"That doctor said I have gray hair, and he said he can cure it," Ah Jin repeated the words of the old doctor who had traded snake gallbladders with them.
Wu Yuan knew this because his gray hair had started to grow out, and the clerk at the pharmacy noticed it, so the old doctor explained it to him.
The problem was that he didn't have gray hair disease, and Wu Yuan refused his treatment, citing important matters that required her to leave.
After leaving the county town, A-Jin said she wanted to find a certain herb. The old doctor said that there was some in the mountains here, so the two of them went into the mountains.
"What do you need that medicine for? To feed the stuff in your jar?" Wu Yuan's eyes fell on the small jar hanging on his waist.
