125: Chapter 125: The Flesh of the Yellow Python 125: Chapter 125: The Flesh of the Yellow Python “Achoo!” Ye Chenfeng, who was far away at the border, couldn’t help sneezing and murmured in his throat, “Could someone be thinking of me?”
Ye Chenfeng made another call to Grandfather Ye and recounted the recent changes here.
After a moment of silence on the phone, Grandfather Ye said, “Chenfeng, you acted too impulsively!
There are still laws in this world, and there are many things we must not overstep!
Unless one day, your strength can transcend it all.”
“I will clean up this mess for you today.
In the future, think twice before you act.” After giving his advice, Grandfather Ye hung up the phone.
The Ye family’s direct line was thinning out, he absolutely couldn’t bear to see his only grandson caught in any more accidents, and Chenfeng’s series of changes had given Grandfather Ye hope, making it even less bearable to let anything happen to his only grandson.
After Ye Chenfeng helped the villagers of Xiyuan Town solve their problems, following a brief cheering, the villagers sank into sorrow—the mayor and a young man from Xiyuan Town had been killed under Tian He’s gun.
The position of mayor in Xiyuan Town was one that only a person of honor and respect could hold.
Thus, after repeatedly thanking Ye Chenfeng, the villagers began arranging the mayor’s funeral.
“Tie Niu, let me help you remove the bullet from your thigh,” Ye Chenfeng said, looking at Tie Niu who was sitting on a large rock.
“My benefactor, that would be much appreciated,” Tie Niu replied with a simple smile, seemingly unbothered, which demonstrated his remarkable endurance.
“It’s no trouble, just a small effort.” While speaking, Ye Chenfeng’s hand slapped on Tie Niu’s thigh, followed by the “whoosh whoosh” sounds as two bullets shot out of Tie Niu’s thigh and embedded themselves into a plane tree in front.
This surprised Tie Niu, who had braced himself for pain.
Standing beside him, Mao Kangping had become numb; he had witnessed too many inconceivable things in Ye Chenfeng, and his tolerance had strengthened considerably since the beginning.
“My benefactor, have you just removed the bullets?
How come I didn’t feel anything?” Tie Niu’s admiration for Ye Chenfeng, his “benefactor,” grew even more.
“Must you endure pain to remove bullets?
Alright, Tie Niu, let’s go see your father.
Maybe this time I can cure your father’s illness,” Ye Chenfeng replied, picking up the snake meat he had wrapped in large leaves and thrown on the ground earlier.
“Really?
Then I’m ready to go now,” Tie Niu said, but then hesitated for a moment before adding, “Benefactor, please don’t tell my dad about what just happened.
He doesn’t know that people have caused trouble in Xiyuan Town again today!”
“Don’t worry, Tie Niu, I won’t say a word,” Ye Chenfeng reassured him.
He hadn’t expected the rough and tough-looking Tie Niu to be such a considerate person.
Mao Kangping lent Tie Niu a hand; although the bullets in Tie Niu’s legs had been removed, it was still inconvenient for him to walk.
Back at Tie Niu’s home, his father, Wang Youli, was resting on a bed inside the house.
Upon seeing Ye Chenfeng return, he quickly sat up.
After Ye Chenfeng’s initial treatment last time, he felt much better than before.
Perhaps it was Ye Chenfeng’s arrival that caught Wang Youli’s attention; he didn’t notice that Tie Niu’s legs were injured.
“Young man, did you have a smooth trip to the Primeval Forest?
Did you enter that valley?
Did you encounter the giant python?” Wang Youli hastily asked the questions in his mind.
Ye Chenfeng placed the snake meat wrapped in large tree leaves on a nearby table and said, “You’ll know once you see what’s here.”
Wang Youli curiously opened the large leaf and saw a huge segment of yellow python meat presented before him.
He had encountered the yellow python once before and immediately recognized the meat as being from the python in the valley.
That meant…
Wang Youli’s feelings at the moment could not be described simply as shock.
He had originally thought that even if Ye Chenfeng encountered the huge python, he would avoid it at all costs.
Now, seeing that Ye Chenfeng had cut off the python’s meat, it was clear that the giant python must have met its end by his hand.
“Young man, it seems that I underestimated your strength before!” Wang Youli’s eyes sparkled with admiration.
“I think if you consume the python meat, the severe poison in your body should be cured without treatment,” Ye Chenfeng said to Wang Youli, sharing his speculation.
As for whether it could truly cure illness without medicine, he did not dare to guarantee it yet!
But he was pretty confident.
“Young man, then I’ll trouble you for this favor,” Wang Youli said without much ado, clearly a forthright and easy-going person.
“Tie Niu, do you have a place to cook at your house?” Ye Chenfeng inquired.
“Benefactor, come with me.
I’ll take you there,” Tie Niu led Ye Chenfeng into the kitchen of his home.
To say it was a kitchen was a bit of a stretch.
In a corner of Tie Niu’s small courtyard, a little shed was built out of wood.
Underneath the shed was nothing but a stove; this was Tie Niu’s kitchen.
However, there were some simple seasonings available, and these were enough for Ye Chenfeng to cook a delicious pot of snake meat.
Ye Chenfeng skillfully peeled the yellow skin off the large chunk of python meat, quickly removed the bones from the meat with a kitchen knife, and then cut the large piece of yellow python meat into slices.
Each slice was exactly the same thickness.
In just a few breaths, Ye Chenfeng finished cutting all the meat, then placed all the slices into a pot filled with water, casually adding some seasoning to it.
Mao Kangping, standing next to the stove, was stunned.
While he could accept Ye Chenfeng’s exceptional dexterity, he never expected Ye Chenfeng’s culinary skills to be just as impeccable.
It seemed that nothing was a challenge for Ye Chenfeng.
While waiting for the snake meat to cook, Mao Kangping asked curiously, “Mr.
Ye, was that python really about twenty meters long?”
Ye Chenfeng nodded and said, “Almost twenty meters long, yes!
As for its width, it was about as thick as a water barrel.”
“Mr.
Ye, did you really kill that giant python?” Hearing Ye Chenfeng’s admission, Mao Kangping swallowed hard.
A python twenty meters long and as wide as a huge water barrel was practically a monster to ordinary people.
Then, thinking of how Ye Chenfeng was not even afraid of bullets, Mao Kangping calmed down a bit and silently vowed in his heart that he must build a good relationship with Ye Chenfeng, which would definitely be all benefit and no harm to him.
“What else could I do?” Ye Chenfeng shrugged, certainly not about to slowly recount the harrowing experience to Mao Kangping.
…
As Ye Chenfeng and Mao Kangping talked, enticing fragrances began to waft from the large pot, flavors so appealing that they instantly whet one’s appetite.
Logically, snake meat shouldn’t smell this good or be this enticing, and it suddenly occurred to Ye Chenfeng, “Could it be because the yellow python had been consuming Yun Teng Mushrooms in the valley for a long time?
If that’s the case, the meat of this yellow python is not simple at all; it might even help me improve my strength!”
