I listened to Cui Xiangpo's words, and my heart became puzzled.

What are those 'things' in her mouth?

And, listening to that, does it mean that my grandmother is hiding something from me?

Cui Xiangpo breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and saw that I was also there, her anger calmed down, and she said to the other end of the phone: "Tan Fengrong, think about it, there is something else on my side, so I will hang up first." ”

After hanging up the phone, Cui Xiangpo walked towards me.

Glancing faintly at my arm, she asked me, "Does it still hurt in your body?" ”

I said, 'It doesn't hurt anymore,' and then asked her, "Cui Xiangpo, how is my grandmother doing now?" ”

Cui Xiangpo turned her head and glanced at the landline behind her and said, "I'm still alive, I'm not dead." But Tan Fengrong told me, let you live with me first, and by the way, let me teach you how to suppress the snake nature in your body. ”

I frowned and asked her, "Then will you teach me?" ”

Cui Xiangpo first sneered, and then said coldly: "There are also conditions for teaching you." I'm over 70 years old, and I'll be dead in a few years, but it's a pity! I have no children under my knees, and no one can inherit my mantle. ”

I instantly understood what she meant, and asked tentatively, "Then can I worship you as your teacher and apprentice?" ”

Cui Xiangpo raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "It's not easy to be my apprentice. ”

I smiled and said, "There is nothing easy in this world, you can't stop doing it because it's hard or afraid, right?" ”

Cui Xiangpo showed a few satisfied expressions and said solemnly to me: "In fifteen days, the snake nature in your body will attack again." And fifteen days is your probationary period. If I am satisfied during this period, I will take you as an apprentice and teach you how to suppress the serpentine nature. ”

I said, "Then I'll thank Cui Xiangpo in advance." ”

Cui Xiangpo snorted, "Little girl, don't be too happy." ”

I replied, and went back to the room that Cui Xiangpo prepared for me to rest.

In the middle of the night, I couldn't sleep, so I got up.

While looking at the moon outside, I thought about how Cui Xiangpo was sure that the snake in my body would attack in fifteen days?

Could it be that she has also experienced this?

Just as he was guessing, there was a sudden sound of rustling outside the window, followed by a hoarse female voice.

"Tan Jing~Tan Jing~"

The voice......

How do I feel familiar?

I gathered all my thoughts and stared intently out the window.

The hoarse girl came again, "Tan Jing ~ Tan Jing ~ You are the Tan family...... The Tan family can't leave ......"

At the end of the conversation, there was a burst of eerie laughter.

I was a little scared and got up to turn off the lights.

But—the body went uncontrollably towards the window.

Walking to the window, my arm unconsciously lifted up to open the window.

And at the moment when I pushed the window open, a big brown snake poked out from under my nose!

Its head stretched out towards me, its straight eyes glowing with a cold light, staring at me like it was staring at its prey.

I stepped back in fear.

I tried to escape from this house, but found that the door wouldn't open at all!

There was a small sound from the mouth of the big snake, and it was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman.

"Quick! Eat her! Eat her before the snake comes! Just eat her - you can become a human —"

Something cold licked over my head, and I instinctively looked, and the huge snake mouth came into my eyes!

But just when I thought I was going to be swallowed into the snake's belly, a red light struck the big snake.

Then, Rong Jun appeared in front of me.

He took his hand and looked coldly at the fallen snake, "I can't remember the lesson, do I." ”

The snake on the ground stared at me with resentment, and roared, "It's just a human, why protect me like this." As much as you want, I'll give you as much as I want, just let me swallow her......"

Before the words could be spoken, a cold wind blew into the house.

Just heard the sound of 'smack', and all the glass in the room burst instantly.

"It seems that ......" The cold wind rolled up the corners of Rong Jun's clothes, and under the mask, his eyes flashed with a faint red light, "Your cultivation is not wanted." ”

The debris that had fallen to the ground suddenly plunged into the flesh of the snake, and I could see that my scalp was a little numb, and I listened to the snake's scream of pain: "I was wrong...... I know it's wrong......"

Rong Jun didn't pay attention to it, just looked at it indifferently.

Seeing that it was impossible to beg for mercy, the snake rose from the ground with difficulty, and rushed towards me with lightning speed.

Before I could react, there was a 'snap', and the snake in front of me quickly exploded.

The bright red pieces of snake landed at my feet, giving off a fishy stench that made my stomach churn.

The door to the house was suddenly opened from the outside, and the blinding light lit up.

I looked up and saw that it was Cui Xiangpo.

Cui Xiangpo stood at the door, and after seeing the glass slag and the foul-smelling snake meat on the ground, she pointed and asked me what was the matter?

I said, "A snake rushed in." ”

Cui Xiangpo snorted coldly, and looked at Rong Jun beside me, "There are dogs in my yard, and if a snake comes in, it will roar, except for letting it out of the house." ”

As she spoke, she turned her gaze back to me and asked, "Did you do it, or did the snake next to you do it?" ”

I opened my lips and wanted to answer, but I heard Cui Xiangpo say first: "No matter who it is, quickly clean it up for me." ”

I quickly agreed yes.

Cui Xiangpo walked into the house with her hands behind her back.

She seemed to see something, and suddenly stopped.

She had her back to me, and all I could see was that she bent down and picked something up.

"Tan Fengrong's snake skin is useless." Cui Xiangpo sighed, "It's a pity." ”

Grandma's snakeskin?

I walked over curiously, and was stunned when I saw the broken snake skin in Cui Xiangpo's hand.

"Isn't this snakeskin with you?" I asked.

"Stolen by a snake, right?" Cui Xiangpo glanced sideways at Rong Jun behind her, and asked me in a deep voice: "Tan Jing, if I guess correctly, the snake next to you is surnamed Rong, right?" ”

I nodded and asked her what was wrong?

Cui Xiangpo put away the snake skin in her hand, patted me on the shoulder and said, "You'll know later." Pack up early, go to bed early, and go out with me tomorrow. ”

I hummed.

After sending Cui Xiangpo out, I took a broom and cleaned up the things on the floor, and asked Rong Jun curiously if he knew how the snake got in?

Rong Jun said that he came in with me.

I paused in my hand and looked up to meet his gaze, "But I didn't feel the snake behind me." ”

Not only me, but even Cui Xiangpo didn't feel it.

Rong Jun lowered his eyes, and his gaze fell on my calf, "That snake wrapped itself around your leg with a blinding method. If you don't believe me, look for snake marks on your legs. ”

Hearing this, I put down the tools in my hand and rolled up my trouser legs to look.

On the skin, there are circles of scales pressed against the marks.

My back felt cold unconsciously, and when I remembered what had happened, I looked up and asked, "Did you wrap your leg around me when you parked?" Didn't you even notice it at the time? ”
