😧 A young, inexperienced soldier fed a snake, even though his comrades had warned him not to: a few days later, something terrible happened to him 😨😱 The soldiers had long grown used to serving in the middle of an empty, endless field where not a single soul could be found for miles around. Only the wind, a few birds, and the occasional wandering animal broke the silence. Service was calm and uneventful — but it was exactly that monotony that wore them down. The men were bored, homesick, longing for their families and any trace of a human face. No contact, no news, no entertainment — only tents and an eternal wait that seemed to hum in their ears. Every Sunday, they received water, supplies, and letters from home, but the week between those days felt unbearably long. Everyone tried to find something to occupy themselves with: some polished their boots until they shone, others read the same book over and over, and some just sat by the campfire in silence, staring into nothing. One early morning, one of the soldiers — a young, completely inexperienced recruit who had just arrived — noticed something strange near his tent. On the dry ground, about a meter from his boots, lay a huge black snake, coiled tightly. It didn’t hiss or strike — it simply watched him. The young man froze, but instead of fear, he felt an odd sense of pity. The snake’s gaze didn’t seem evil, but hungry and tired. He took a piece of bread from his pocket — leftovers from dinner — and carefully reached out his hand. The snake remained still for a moment, then slowly slithered forward, took the bread, and disappeared. When his comrades found out, they just shook their heads. — “Are you crazy?” — said the sergeant. — “It’s a snake. It’s dangerous. You don’t feed them.” But the young man just smiled. — “Come on, she was hungry. I just wanted to help.” That was the end of it — and after a few days, he’d already forgotten the strange morning. But a few days later, something terrible happened 😱😨 Read more in Comment or Most relevant -> All Comments 🗨️
