Feng Shou had waited until the king cobra had finished eating before he watched it slither away from the orchard and then he made his way back.
In his excitement, Feng Shou came up with some new ideas.
Since there were no other hired workers around and he was alone in this area, he carefully took out the pill box from his pocket and removed the Copper Coin inside it.
Before that, he had wiped his hands clean, in order not to let the sweat from his hands erode and spoil the "medicinal properties" of the Copper Coin.
It was when he saw the ants bustling on the ground that he got the idea.
Using a small piece of fruit with a sweet scent, he lured the ants.
When the fruit had attracted enough ants that they seemed to engulf it like a black veil, Feng Shou cautiously approached, careful not to disturb the ants with his footsteps.
He held the red string tied to the Copper Coin, maintaining a distance for starters.
Some ants left the fruit, but many others still clung to it.
