Chapter 10: Turning into a Snake
"It is said that it is a person named Master Li, whose full name seems to be Li Muxing, who is very famous in our Xuancheng, and many rich businessmen and celebrities have come to him to see feng shui." Xia Wan said thoughtfully.
"Li Muxing?" Chen Du fell into memories, as a native of Xuancheng, he naturally heard some news about Li Muxing.
It is rumored that he was born as an orphan, adopted by Baiyangguan near Xiajiajia Village, and was taught by the Taoist, who learned a true skill from the late Guanzhuo, and has now left Baiyangguan to stand on his own, and has more dealings with some rich businessmen and celebrities to seek huge profits.
According to rumors, this son teaches that the chief of the Tao has acted unjustly, as long as the employer can afford to pay a high price, he dares to do anything, which naturally violates morality and kills innocents.
Chen Du didn't know if the rumors were true or not, but if there were too many rumors, they wouldn't all be groundless.
"Chen Du, you also know this Master Li, do you think he can find out what's going on?" Xia Wan asked.
"I don't know, if he Li Muxing has real skills, he should be able to find out something." Chen Du secretly had more snacks, picked up the cup of herbal tea, and drank the rest of the tea in one gulp, but it was still tasteless.
But perhaps because he drank too much in this sip, Chen Du immediately felt sick to his stomach and wanted to vomit.
He stood up and looked around for where the bathroom was.
"...... over there," Xia Wan immediately pointed out where the bathroom was.
Chen Du hurriedly ran over, went inside, and closed the bathroom door with his backhand.
"Chen Du, are you okay? Is it a bad stomach? Xia Wan asked nervously at the bathroom door.
However, Chen Du lay on the toilet and kept vomiting, and there was no space to respond to her at all.
After vomiting for a long time, Chen Du collapsed, sat down on the spot, and looked at the toilet, all he spit out was some yellow juice, I don't know what was going on.
Chen Du only felt that there might be something wrong with this recovered body, and then he noticed that the two silver scales on the back of his hand were moving, as if they were breathing on their own, and then a scene that frightened him happened, and more silver scales began to appear around these two scales.
Soon, his entire hand was covered in silver scales, and then the silver scales spread to his arm, quickly covering this arm of his.
This was not over, the silver scales continued to spread all over his body, and after a short time, they spread all over his body, and at this moment, a strange force twisted his body, like twisting a twisted flower, and a bright light followed from his body, covering his body.
When the light dissipated, Chen Du suddenly found that the objects around him were getting bigger, such as the toilet, which was like a big stone in front of him at the moment, and what was even more peculiar was that he found that his hands and feet were gone, and he turned his head to observe, and found that he had turned into a small snake covered with fine silver scales, only as thick as chopsticks, and less than half a meter long.
Chen Du understood what was going on, because he had recovered his physical body, and after his soul and body gradually merged, he became a snake, because he passively took away the infant adult, and naturally inherited the characteristics of his real body as a serpentine beast.
"Chen Du, you reply, why is there no movement? If I don't reply, I'll go in. Xia Wan has been worried about Chen Du and shouted again.
Chen Du, who turned into a small silver snake, was uneasy, and said anxiously: "No, I can't let her see me like this." ”
In a hurry, Chen Du saw a small drainage hole on the floor of the bathroom, and immediately twisted his body and drilled into this small hole, and his body fell quickly down the pipe.
"Chen Du, I'm in, are you okay......" Xia Wan, who had been slow to get a response outside, boldly opened the door of the bathroom and found that there was no Chen Du inside at all.
She felt incredible, she had been guarding outside the bathroom, how could Chen Du suddenly disappear.
"Chen Du, you, where are you?" Xia Wan thought that Chen Du was hiding, but the bathroom was only so big, there was no place to hide a person.
As soon as she entered the bathroom, she noticed the yellow liquid in the toilet, a thick layer, and she didn't know what it was.
"Wanwan, I'm so hungry, are you ready for dinner?" At this time, an old man's voice sounded in the courtyard outside, it was Xia Yuanchao, Xia Wan's grandfather, who came back with his grandson Xia Feng.
Xia Yuanchao had nothing to do, so he had an errand to pass the time in the nearby Baiyang Temple.
The grandparents and grandchildren entered the room and found that Xia Wan came out of the bathroom with a slightly pale face.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Xia Feng saw her sister who didn't have a good face and ran over to care about her.
So, Xia Wan told what happened just now, and both grandparents and grandchildren knew that Xia Wan had saved a young man who was run over by a big truck.
"Are you saying that the man named Chen Du suddenly came to you and disappeared inexplicably in our bathroom?" Xia Yuanchao likes to tinker with those mysterious things, and immediately thinks of the bad side.
"Well, I talked to him in the living room, but he suddenly felt sick to his stomach after drinking tea, ran to the bathroom and vomited for a long time, and when I opened the door to see his condition, I found that he was no longer in the bathroom."
Hearing this, Xia Yuanchao's old face sank, and he blamed: "Late night, come and go without a trace, you are afraid that you will hit a ghost, I told you before, you can't just bring anyone to the house, why don't you listen." ”
Xia Wan's face suddenly looked difficult to see: "Grandpa, why do you say that he is a ghost, people came to me to thank him, maybe he has some special ability that can disappear in an instant." After saying that, she felt a little nonsense.
"If you don't believe it, then let grandpa verify it." Xia Yuanchao immediately went to his room on the first floor, and when he returned, he held a stack of yellow rune paper in his hand, on which were painted with mysterious runes in cinnabar.
"This is the yin exorcism talisman I asked for from the Baiyang Guanzi Void Dao Master, if he is really a ghost, this talisman paper will definitely be able to verify it." After speaking, Xia Yuanchao lit one of them with a lighter in front of Xia Wan and put it into the teacup where Chen Du had drunk tea.
When the rune paper burned out, a force they couldn't perceive appeared, and then in the teacup that Chen Du had touched, a trace of black gas as thick as ink rose.
Seeing this scene, Xia Yuanchao became excited, and laughed and said: "Okay, good, the yin exorcism talisman given by Zixu Dao is really powerful, these black gases are only emitted by things that have been contaminated by ghosts, and you believe it now, right?" ”
Xia Wan's face was already extremely embarrassed, she didn't want to believe that Chen Du was dead, and she didn't want to believe the methods of her grandfather, but in the face of the facts in front of her, as well as those strange characteristics of Chen Du, such as the cold air that constantly emanated from his body, and the phenomenon of mysteriously disappearing in the bathroom, she was shaken.
"Are you really dead?" Xia Wan asked herself in her heart, she had never believed in ghosts and gods before, and her consciousness was a little confused.
