Chapter 31: Terminally Ill

It wasn't completely dark, and Zheng Pei was wrapped in a thick woolen blanket that was so black that he couldn't see the original color that he leaned on in a wooden chair next to the fire. The old woman used a knife to cut out pieces www.biquge.info of meat from the hind legs of an animal with a knife, put them on the branches, and smoked them by the fire, while the remaining diced meat was poured into the tin pot where the porridge was boiled, and boiled on the fire. Zheng Pei looked at the smashed cat head with a dull gaze, and his heart was mixed, if he hadn't woken up to make the last struggle, maybe he would have been dragged away by the big cat and gnawed clean a little bit.

"Mother-in-law, when can I go......" Zheng Pei snorted, if it weren't for such a quiet environment, this dream-like voice would not be heard by others at all.

The old woman didn't say anything, rubbed her three fingers and sprinkled a little salt in the barbecue and porridge. The firelight flickered, reflecting her indifferent face.

The sentence just now seemed to use up all of Zheng Pei's strength, and his gaze shifted to the old woman's face, silently waiting for an answer. But the old woman didn't want to answer him at all, she concentrated on roasting the meat, and when it was almost roasted, she picked it up and stuffed it into Zheng Pei's hand.

"Eat!" The old woman ordered.

"Mother-in-law," the steaming meat skewers in his hand did not arouse Zheng Pei's interest, he endured the pain and asked in a low voice, "Mother-in-law, when will I be well?" I want to go......"

"Let's go? Where can you go? The old woman sneered.

Zheng Pei gritted his teeth and propped himself up, and every time he moved, he could immediately feel a sharp pain like a knife in the neck wound. Zheng Pei adjusted his breathing and said weakly: "Mother-in-law, I want to go back to school, I still have a job, and my mother is waiting for me at home, so I ......"

The old woman added a few sticks of firewood to the fire, sighed, and said, "Boy, it's not that your mother-in-law won't let you go, it's because even if you are injured, I'm afraid you won't be able to live." ”

Zheng Pei was shocked, and wanted to ask immediately to understand, but due to a hurry, the blood in the wound choked into the trachea, causing him to cough for a while, but the more he coughed the blood, the more he choked, and the black blood kept coughing out of his mouth and nostrils, if it wasn't for the old woman pinching the back of his neck and raising his chin, I'm afraid he would have coughed until he died. The old woman gently put his head back on the back of the chair, although Zheng Pei's face was already flushed, but he gradually stopped coughing, the old woman glanced at Zheng Pei with pity, and turned around and sat on the bamboo chair on the side.

"Don't be in a hurry, this kind of thing is fate, and you can't be in a hurry." The old woman moved the meat skewers out, picked up the wooden spoon and slowly stirred the porridge, "Although the worm saved your life, the worm poison has soaked your soul, or it won't be long before you lose your mind, completely dominated by the worm, and finally rot all your internal organs because you can't stand its toxicity." ”

Zheng Pei's expression gradually became decadent, and his eyes became confused. He couldn't figure out what was going on these days, and the only thing he knew for sure was that his death was near. Zheng Pei closed his eyes in pain, and he felt deeply unhappy about his fate. He feels like a chess piece abandoned by the world, and it is already a luxury to see his mother, and now he can't shout loudly a few times.

"Eminem, it's not completely impossible, is it?" Ba Niang's voice suddenly sounded, and Zheng Pei slowly opened his eyes when he heard that he still had hope.

Ba Niang looked at the old woman eagerly, but the old woman didn't answer, just filled herself with a bowl of porridge and drank it slowly.

Ba Niang walked up to the old woman and sat on the floor, and continued to ask, "Eminem, isn't there still a spell to bind the snake god?" ”

The old woman shook her head and said, "Although you can bind the snake god with a spell, I still hope that he will replace you as my disciple, learn our spells, and develop our sect." If you bind the snake god with a spell, you can save your life, but the child's god will also be bound at the same time, like a fool. ”

Zheng Pei looked at Ba Niang with a pleading gaze, a hint of apology flashed in Ba Niang's eyes, and he turned to the old woman and said: "With his current physique and cultivation, it is estimated that it will not last long, if a person dies, isn't there no hope for everything?" ”

The old woman said in a low voice: "I know this in my heart, his body insect poison should be repaired before tomorrow night, I will give him a layer of prohibition first, delay the time of being controlled, and let him learn spells as soon as possible." When the ban reaches its limit, I will seal the snake god with a spell. Therefore, how much he can do in the future depends on his own creation. ”

Ba Niang didn't say any more, and Zheng Pei also knew that this should be the last resort. Although he didn't understand what the old woman and Ba Niang could do to him, he could vaguely feel that his future fate would be stormy.
