Quick wear: I kill the male and female protagonists 48 hours a day.

That night, a large group of rat workers gathered near the mine.

The Rat Tribe are natural mining experts. They can easily go down the hole in their original form and then change back to human form. They are hardworking, have a strong sense of cooperation, are smart, and most importantly, are extremely loyal to the Rat Queen and the Beast God.

If it were modern times, Jin Shu would never be able to find such a helper.

The remaining half of the rat tribe began to dig coal refining kilns throughout the mountain.

Jin Shu is quite skilled and knowledgeable about the entire process of mining, refining, and all the detailed procedures within the process.

Here, she once again thanked her former self for being knowledgeable and well-informed.

After dividing and arranging all the work processes in detail, Jin Shu promoted several supervisors.

Then in the next stage of training, she will do it herself and conduct training in groups.

After all, this job is very dangerous, and even the rat tribe will inevitably encounter various unexpected situations. In order to minimize the injury rate, Jin Shu took advantage of the static time and made safety equipment for the rat tribe using thorny hemp bark and other materials that could be found in the forest.

After spending a little longer together, Jin Shu discovered that the rat queen, who was so fat and bent over that her feet were almost invisible, was actually a little girl who was not yet an adult.

"We rats tend to be anxious, so it's normal for you to misunderstand."

"So? You want me to find you a male companion?"

"Yes, I don't like mice. I like lions, tigers and the like. You are so powerful, please help me."

Jin Shu looked at her with a serious tone.

"Mice and tigers cannot have offspring. You are the Rat Queen, so you have to think about your next generation."

The purpose of the rat queen's existence is not to reproduce in large numbers.

But the Rat Queen in front of him really didn't like this.

“I was born the Rat Queen, but I would rather not be the Rat Queen.

I like strong men like tigers and lions. Even if I don’t do this for the purpose of having children, I would be happy if I found one to look at me every day.

If you help me, I will give you another fifty laborers."

"Okay, deal."

Jin Shu remembered that there were traces of a group of ferocious beasts on another hill.

She planned to go out and try her luck.

Although the probability is very small, surveying the map is Jin Shu's job anyway. She knows better than anyone what treasures can be encountered during the survey.

The mountain they are in now has been almost thoroughly studied by Jin Shu.

She knew exactly which area belonged to which ethnic group and even the nests of poisonous insects, snakes and ants.

So this time, she planned to go a little further since she had more time.

This time, she brought the snake venom she had exchanged at the market and the antidote she had researched herself.

After packing up her things, Jin Shu set out for another hill.

After leaving Shihe, the situation ahead was quite unfamiliar to Jin Shu, but she had experience, so even if she entered a completely unfamiliar territory, she could still plan her next route in a clear and orderly manner.

On the first day, Jin Shu found a nest of frozen snakes.

Such weather is really too tough for cold-blooded animals.

The snake tribe should have started migrating, and on the way, some weak ones would be left alone.

For example, this litter of baby snakes were obviously too weak and had a low survival rate. The tribe saw that they had no hope of being saved, so they abandoned them.

Jin Shu dug out the dozen or so little snakes from the snow and stuffed them all into the animal skin backpack she carried with her.

Snakes have a low body temperature, so even if they are thrown into the snow, they will not be frozen to death in a short time.

After that, Jin Shu did not go any further, but took the nest of snakes back home, and then boiled a pot of herbal soup, soaked it with linen when the temperature was right, and finally wrapped the frozen snakes with the wet linen. During this time, Jin Shu kept the kang under the bed burning vigorously, and the hypothermic snakes were placed on a thick animal fur blanket to wait for them to warm up.

As soon as the next morning came, Jin Shu went to check on the little snake.

It was originally thought that only half of the snake cubs in this litter would survive, but Jin Shu did not expect that the snake cubs of this beast tribe would have such tenacious vitality.

If this happened to an ordinary snake, it would have died eight hundred times already after being frozen for such a long time in such cold weather.

And all the dozen or so little snakes in front of me survived.

These snakes were all abandoned shortly after they hatched, so when they saw Jin Shu for the first time after waking up, they regarded her as their mother.

As soon as they saw her coming, they swam over excitedly, wagging their tails.

Because the snake cubs were too small, Jin Shu couldn't tell what race they were for a while.

But she discovered that these little snakes all had venom glands on their back teeth, so they were probably a group of poisonous snakes.

The glands of the little snake are not fully developed yet, but it will bite anyone it sees.

In addition to Jin Shu, Ah Qi and the curious Liang Xu and Ah Hai were all bitten.

After being bitten, Ah Qi still didn't care.

"The little snake is not poisonous. It's okay."

Then within three seconds, she fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth.

Fortunately, Jin Shu had taken the snake venom from the baby snake in advance to make an antidote, and quickly fed it to Ah Qi.

From then on, Ah Qi would stay far away from her every time she was fed, and would only get close when forced to do so, and would also wear things with Jin Shu's scent on her body.

Liang Xu and Ah Hai, who were also bitten, showed the same symptoms and the poison took effect very quickly.

After taking the antidote, the two looked at the nest of finger-thick snake cubs with lingering fear, still unable to believe it.

"How can such a small snake have such a strong poison?"

This is probably the only poison that an adult venomous snake can have!

What's more, this is a little snake that has just hatched and whose venom glands are not yet fully developed.

If they were bitten like this when they grow up, they would probably die without even having the chance to take medicine.

For this purpose, Ah Qi took out the secret manual passed down from his ancestors and studied it.

In the end, she really found out the origin of this little snake.

"This should be a mountain king snake. When it grows up, it will be as thick as my thigh. It is extremely poisonous and belongs to a very powerful tribe on the beast continent.

But this snake has a weakness: the colder the weather, the lower its venom.

It was probably because of the abnormal temperature this year, and they were so weak that they fled in a hurry when their enemies came to them.

As the bodies of the little snakes recovered, their venom also recovered.”

Jin Shu nodded.

"Then keep it. Help me look after the house and prevent wild animals from coming down the mountain to eat my pigs."

Ah Qi couldn't help laughing after hearing this.

"I don't know how many pigs are needed just to feed them."

Baby snakes have a pretty big appetite.

Jin Shu was also generous. She ate as much as she could, no matter how much she could eat.
