"Hot water." The grandmother commanded anxiously.

"Undress first!" My aunt said, "Xuanzi is too hot!" ”

"Thick ink, go open the window and ventilate." My uncle carried me into the big wooden barrel.

"Xuanzi, you're a son." My grandmother put her face to mine, "You talk to my grandmother, let's talk." ”

"Milk." I struggled to move my face to the side, not wanting to scare my grandmother, the skin on my face was already detached from the flesh on my cheeks.

"Oh, my heart!" The grandmother said distressedly.

A pair of hands were about to pull my collar, "Hey Yuzhi, don't take off Xuanzi's clothes!" Wait a while, soak for a while, this time the situation is different, and I and Nong Mo will have to be present for a while longer. "Uncle stopped my aunt. I know, I'm molting again, and this time it's not the kind of skin that is cocked up piece by piece, I guess...... It's a whole ...... It's like a real snake shedding, and it's definitely one step closer to becoming a snake.

"Ah Xuan." Thick ink touched my face, "Does it hurt like this?" ”

"I don't feel it." I replied in a hoarse voice, and the only thing I felt was that I couldn't see with my eyes, and my tongue couldn't receive infrared rays, and I became blind again.

"Yuzhi, go get a pair of scissors." Uncle said. I shuddered, scissors? What does my uncle want to do with scissors?

Thick Mo seemed to sense my fear, and he whispered in my ear: "Don't be afraid, Ah Xuan, this is the same as you molted before, think about it, how troublesome it used to be piece by piece, but now it is much more convenient." "I fumbled and hit him, it's not funny, it's scary, it's okay.

"Mom, you touch Xuanzi's leg to see if the skin is soaked." Uncle said again.

The dry hand of the grandmother reached under the water, and I grabbed the hand of the grandmother, "Granny, don't touch my legs, don't touch." ”

"What's wrong? Hurt? The grandmother asked nervously.

"It's not...... Isn't it......" My legs suddenly contracted violently, "thick ink! "I don't know who else can help me, although they know my secrets, they haven't seen my oversized snake tail, no, don't let them see it, they'll be terrified!

"Ah Xuan." Thick ink brought his ear to my mouth.

"Thick ink, quick, let everyone go out, think of a way, think of a way, my legs are different!" I held my legs down, but they were still close together.

"Ah Xuan, I can't hide." As soon as these words came out, the barrel exploded, and a bucket of hot water sprayed on the ground, and I fell to the ground with it, and needless to say, my tail came out.

"Grandma, uncle, don't look at it." I lay on the ground and cried, but they still saw it! I still see it! I can't hide it, will my grandmother collapse, and all the efforts of so many years of collapse will be in vain? I must be ugly now, with the skin hanging all over my body and a huge tail on my lower body. Sure enough, the people in the room were stunned, and no one spoke for a long time, which seemed like centuries.

Then, I was hugged, and tears were sprinkled on the bath water on my body, it was the grandmother, "Xuanzi, don't be afraid, we are all here." "I'm afraid this is family affection, I'm afraid only family members will say it, the first thing the grandmother reflects is not whether she is afraid, but whether I am afraid, "Da Yin!" Call! ”

"It's useless, housemilk." I hurried to stop it.

"Grandma, my master won't have a better way, in fact, we all know that there may be this process, but the result will definitely be good, grandma, please believe me, I will help Ah Xuan turn back, we have never given up our efforts, we have not." Listening to the voice, thick ink also squatted down.

"Mom, yes, just think it's the same as before, what strange things haven't happened to Xuanzi? Mom, hurry up, we still have to deal with Xuanzi. "My aunt came up to pull the house's milk.

My hand was also pulled, and then I was picked up, "I'll send you to the bed to sit first, and the tail will be dragged on the ground like this, and it will be easier to turn into a tail and shed its skin." "Thick ink said in my ear, I nodded, this should be natural adaptation, now the way of molting is similar to a snake, that snake called Xuan, are you really going to occupy my body?

Thick ink put me on the bed, my tail was propped up, and then my uncle's voice said, "Yuzhi, hand me the scissors." ”

"Do you really want to get from here?" Thick ink asked. The grandmother sat next to me and hugged me, I leaned my head over, and when I touched the grandmother, it immediately bounced back, and my face was ......

"It's convenient from here, just cut a cut, you see, the skin is very loose quickly, just get scissors from here, you hold it up." Uncle said.

My tail is a wobble, to ...... I'm going to go under the knife, why does it sound so weird, but fortunately I'm blind, I can't see anything, I can't feel anything, otherwise I can't go crazy, thinking of me, I really think it's not easy for my grandmother, every time I molt her skin is she with me, it's really scary to see that piece of skin falling off, I don't dare to look at it, but my grandmother is enduring it, I silently touched my hands, oh my God, my hands are like wearing a layer of waterproof gloves.

"Yuzhi, come and take a look, Xuanzi's forehead skin!" The grandmother called her aunt to come over. Forehead skin? I touched it with my hand. I was startled when I touched it, and I made an opening from the hairline.

The grandmother knocked my hand off, "Don't touch it." ”

"Mom, you can just tear it off here! Ayin! Come on, you can also tear it here, don't cut it over there, tear it from here and it's a whole thing! "Auntie said it was whole? I'm sweating, what do you want to do? That's not snakeskin, that's my skin, my skin!

In the end, I was lying on the bed and skinned from head to toe, who was the skin? Of course, it's my grandmother and aunt, I still have to take off my clothes, okay, my uncle and thick ink have consciously gone out, after molting, I touched my face, moistened with water, and sighed on the bed, alas, I really don't know if it's fortunate or unlucky. Since then, my molting process has changed, and I have nothing to complain about compared to the previous molting, but ...... Can you transform in pants!

After that incident, the Pei family didn't do anything, because ...... The Pei family moved away, I still miss Pei Feng, he at least treated me sincerely as a friend, and he did save me when I was in danger, as for the grievances with the Pei family, it's over, because my aunt didn't leave, I don't understand this, since she doesn't want to leave, is it because she has feelings for her uncle or is there another reason? The Pei family is gone, what reason does she have for not leaving as an insider? However, since she didn't plan to leave, she adopted Siyuan again. But if things can be figured out, it is not called life, if you can't see through it, you are anxious, and if you see through it, it is not interesting, we just live in such a big circle, and we see flowers in the fog. Since it's nothing serious, there's no need to delve into it, it's good to be calm.

And what about the book lying in the grass next to the courtyard wall of Pei Feng's house, what is it now in the hands of thick ink? It's about the content of Taoism, what I don't understand is that the tall Taoist priest didn't say that Siyuan's second uncle is not suitable for learning Taoism? Then why did you give him this book? When thick ink got this book, he couldn't put it down in his hand if he got it, far more than other pleasures, of course, he didn't have any other pleasures, and it didn't count as hitting me often.

Approaching the summer vacation, my grandmother and I moved back to our new home, the new home is a two-story small building, my room is above, my grandmother's room is below, this is for the sake of my senior year of high school, the most convenient thing is that the family also has a bathroom, no need to go out to the toilet, there is solar energy, and it is more convenient to take a bath.

"Grandma, I was pecked just now." I stretched out my hand to show my grandmother.

The grandmother blew in distress, walked to the chicken coop, pointed to a hen and asked me, "Is it the anti-haired chicken?" "I nodded hatefully, I just wanted to collect the eggs, it was so fierce. Anti-hair chicken, as the name suggests, is that the hair on the body is all turned over, the hair seems to be blown by the wind in turn, the shape is very unique, this kind of chicken is also rare, I just have one at home.

"It's going to hatch chicks!" The grandmother said, "I'll tie it up later." ”

"Milk." I took my grandmother's hand and said coquettishly, "Can you not tie it up?" ”

"If you don't bundle it, you'll lose a chicken that lays eggs." The grandmother said.

"Milk, our family hasn't hatched chicks for many years." Hatching chicks is also my memory when I was a child, an old hen with a litter of chicks foraging, as soon as it touches something delicious, the old hen will giggle and call the chicks to come and eat, when other chickens peck the chicks, the old hen will also be very domineering to protect the chicks, but then there are artificially hatched chicks on the street, and the family has never hatched chicks again, because if an old hen hatches chicks, the time when the eggs and chicks cannot lay eggs, so when the old hen wants to hatch chicks, she will tie it up, It's just a week's worth of it, uh, it seems very cruel.

"Okay then, let's go get some more eggs." The grandmother agreed.

The grandmother took out a dozen eggs from the house, took out a pot covered with grass underneath, put the eggs on top, put the basin into the chicken shed, the hen saw it, the joy blossomed, waved her wings and fell down, not to use her mouth to put the egg under the belly, I touched my hand, it originally wanted to be a mother, no wonder such a precious egg.

After a while, the grandmother brought a pair of scissors from the house and a kitchen knife, "What for?" I asked curiously.

The house milk puts the kitchen knife and scissors next to the hen, "so that it prevents anything from touching." ”

"What's that?" Weasel? The weasel eats it with its mouth.

The grandmother flicked on my head, "Why are you so stupid, of course it's that thing, when you hatch chickens and ducks, those things will come and touch the eggs and duck eggs, and when you touch them, the chicks won't come out, and they won't dare to press them with kitchen knives and scissors." "Oh~ I see, just like a woman's pregnancy, there will be a lot of things going around." Another is to prevent thunder, when hatching chicks, thunder will also affect, not good for chicks. The grandmother added.

"Xuanzi." Xue Huai called me at my doorstep.

"Oh, here we are."
