#331 - Chapter 331: The Snake Cave in Hong Village

Cheng Feng looked at Da Hei expectantly, his deep eyes gleaming with a light of wisdom, as if capable of seeing through people's hearts. He tentatively asked in a soft voice, "Da Hei, can you control the snakes in the snake cave?"

Da Hei, upon hearing this, slightly raised its head, a complex emotion flashing in its cold snake eyes. It seemed to be thinking, or perhaps assessing the extent of its abilities. After a moment, Da Hei slowly nodded. Although it didn't make a sound, its firm attitude was enough for Cheng Feng to feel its answer.

A surge of unspeakable excitement welled up in Cheng Feng's heart. He knew that if Da Hei could truly control the snakes in the snake cave, it would be a great help on his future path.

"That's great, Da Hei!" Cheng Feng shouted excitedly, his eyes sparkling with longing and anticipation for the future. He reached out and gently stroked Da Hei's head, the cold scales seeming to contain an indescribable warmth and trust, making Cheng Feng feel incredibly secure and content.

"I have an idea, Da Hei," Cheng Feng continued, his tone filled with seriousness and determination, "I want to move all the snakes here to the mountains, let them return to nature, and also provide an opportunity for people outside to come into contact with and understand snakes. After all, snakes have undeniable value in medicine, scientific research, and ecological protection. Moreover, if we can teach people how to safely raise and utilize snakes, it will not only expand the Hongmen's means but also increase a source of income for Hong Village."

Da Hei listened quietly to Cheng Feng's words, its snake eyes seeming to be considering the feasibility of this proposal. Although it couldn't express its thoughts in words, Cheng Feng could feel its obedience to him.

"Of course, this requires us to make full preparations and plans," Cheng Feng muttered to himself, "We must ensure that these snakes are safe and sound during the migration process, and also educate the villagers on how to make good use of those snakes."

Da Hei seemed to understand Cheng Feng's words, and it nodded slightly, as if to express its agreement and support.

The next morning, Cheng Feng began his plan. He first selected villagers from Hong Village who were unafraid of snakes and had some experience with them to assist him. These villagers were not only bold and careful but also knew the habits of snakes, making them the best candidates to escort the snake群.

For the large snakes, Cheng Feng specifically arranged for the Hongmen warriors to guard them. These warriors were all skilled, not only ensuring the safety of the snakes during the migration process but also responding to emergencies and protecting the villagers from harm.

As for the smaller, non-venomous snakes, Cheng Feng confidently entrusted them to the care of the Hong Village villagers. He believed that with the villagers' careful attention, these snakes would be able to move smoothly to their new home.

As for the venomous snakes, Cheng Feng was even more cautious. He first instructed Da Hei to act as the "leader," allowing these dangerous snakes to leave in the last batch. Da Hei, with its innate control over snakes, was able to ensure that these venomous snakes remained orderly during the migration process and did not escape at will.

At the same time, Cheng Feng also specially prepared a centralized placement point for temporarily storing these venomous snakes. He had Da Hei guard this area to ensure that no snakes could escape. This not only ensured the safety of the villagers but also prevented venomous snakes from causing unnecessary harm to the surrounding area of Hong Village.

To be on the safe side, Cheng Feng also personally prepared a universally applicable snake venom antidote prescription and explained its usage methods and precautions to the villagers in detail. This prescription could not only effectively treat snake bites but also allow the villagers to participate in the snake migration and breeding work more confidently.

Under Cheng Feng's careful arrangement, the entire migration process was well-organized. The villagers and Hongmen warriors worked closely together to complete this arduous task.

And the snakes that originally lived in the snake cave also found their own homes in the new environment. Cheng Feng's move not only added a new source of strength to the Hongmen but also provided the people of Hong Village with an opportunity to generate income.

In fact, considering that the Hongmen might need snake venom as a special resource, and also in this time of war, disaster, drought, and scarcity of materials, snake meat has undoubtedly become a valuable source of meat.

Although some people may have a fear of snakes, under the great pressure of survival, this fear is often overcome. After all, in this difficult era, finding food to sustain life is already very difficult.

In the face of hunger, everyone is equal.

Cheng Feng knows this well, so in the process of planning the migration and utilization of snakes, he not only considered the importance of snake venom but also fully considered the potential of snake meat as a food resource.

He can guide the villagers to capture and process snakes safely, ensuring that they can obtain snake venom for the special needs of the Hongmen and also utilize snake meat as a valuable food ingredient.

To eliminate the villagers' fear, Cheng Feng can also organize professional training courses to teach the villagers how to identify non-venomous and venomous snakes, how to safely capture and handle snakes, and how to cook snake meat, etc.

Through these measures, not only can the villagers' survival skills be improved, but also they can be helped to establish a correct understanding of snakes, so as to cherish and utilize this natural resource more.

Snake gall and other snake medicinal materials have extremely high medicinal value, and are indispensable precious medicinal materials for warriors.

Cheng Feng, who possesses the inheritance of the Spiritual Formula Dao, naturally also needs snake gall, a medicinal material, to refine some of the medicines needed by warriors, and transform snake gall and other medicinal materials into elixirs or potions that are of great benefit to warriors.

These elixirs can not only enhance the warrior's blood and Qi cultivation and strengthen the body, but also play an important role in treating internal injuries and detoxification. For the disciples of the Hongmen, this is undoubtedly a valuable treasure and help.

Being able to do this, the medical knowledge of the Ghost Doctor Book and the knowledge of the Spiritual Formula Alchemy are indispensable.

With the passage of time, snake breeding and utilization have gradually become a characteristic industry of Hong Village. Cheng Feng also used the inheritance of the Spiritual Formula Dao to continuously research and improve the elixir formula, making its effect more significant.

In a chance encounter, Cheng Feng discovered a rare snake. The venom of this snake has extremely strong medicinal value and can cure many difficult and complicated diseases.

In order to obtain this venom, Cheng Feng led Da Hei and the villagers of Hong Village to work hard to find a way to cultivate this silver thread snake.

This was also the first time Da Hei met the villagers of Hong Village. Seeing Da Hei, which was eighteen meters long and two meters wide and high, the villagers standing in the front row were directly frightened and fainted.

This made Cheng Feng a little embarrassed, but Da Hei was a little embarrassed and swept its tail, appearing shy.
