In the autumn of 1996, Huang Kaining had lunch and went to his home's betel nut garden to weed. After working for a while, Huang Kaining was a little tired. When he saw a stone next to him, he wanted to go over and take a rest, and took a closer look. , Huang Kaining discovered that there was a newborn snake on the stone.
"Snakes are animals that like shade. How can they climb on rocks to bask in the sun?" Huang Kaining carefully observed the little snake with this doubt. It turned out that this little snake did not come out to bask in the sun. The little snake was injured and had no strength to crawl anymore.

Although Huang Kaining was reluctant to give up, he also understood that the little snake still belonged to nature after all, but he thought in his heart, what if the little snake returned to nature and got injured again? Under Huang Kaining's entanglement Another month passed in the blink of an eye.
The longer Huang Kaining spent with the little snake, the more he couldn't let go of the little snake. Finally, he made up his mind to adopt the little snake and informed his parents of the news.

Training pythons
Faced with everyone's opposition, Huang Kaining was stubborn and did not compromise. He was determined to train the snake himself. If the snake would not attack people, then everyone would have no reason to object.
Huang Kaining did not brag about training snakes because he learned that there were old people in the village who had some experience in this area. With the help of the old people in the village, Huang Kaining developed his own set of training methods.
The little snake adopted by Huang Kaining is a python, so there is no need to worry about being poisonous.

Huang Kaining trained the little snake for a long time, but there was still no progress. He once wondered if he had done something wrong. Huang Kaining looked at the injuries on his body and cried very sadly. The little snake saw Huang Kaining's uncomfortable look and lay down on it. He went to comfort Huang Kaining.
