Chapter 514: Transformed into a Snake
"Ah?" Zhang Erquan was petrified on the spot, unable to speak clearly:
"My... my grandfather? Then..."
I roughly counted on my fingers and said, "That means he must be at least two or three hundred years old, Mom. Are you confused?"
The people in Changshou Village used to live very long lives, but there has never been one as long as this one.
"If you don't believe me, come and see."
Zhang Erquan was dragged into the house with her eyes wide open, watching her mother open the locked treasure chest.
This kind of box is as big as an armrest, with three layers: top, middle and bottom.
As Cheng Yue'e opened the lid, the first layer revealed a needle bag. One could tell from the outside that this needle bag was not simple, as it was embroidered with a pattern of two dragons playing with pearls, and it was obviously made of yellow silk used for protection.
On the second layer was a scroll, which Zheng Yue'e carefully opened: "Look, does it look like it?"
Zhang Erquan's pupils shrank, and he almost choked out his breath: "No way."
The man in the scroll is wearing court robes, with a long braid and his hair shaved bald on his forehead, but his facial features remain unchanged.
There is also a mole hidden in the left eyebrow.
Zhang Erquan was stunned, but when he came to his senses he ran into the thatched hut.
The old man had just finished his needlework. Zhang Erquan stared at the dishevelled old man. He really looked like a beggar, but his general appearance had not changed at all except for the loose skin and wrinkles on his face.
Even at this point, Zhang Erquan still didn't dare to go up and talk to him. You know, he had never met his grandfather before, and even the old man didn't recognize him.
Tang Bu Ci asked hurriedly: "Why hasn't she woken up yet?"
Nannan frowned, picked up the cloth bag hanging on her waist, and secretly took out a piece of paper from it.
When she saw this, wow! Nannan's eyes lit up.
Tang Bushi caught this scene red-handed. Seeing that the girl was carrying something behind his back as if she was hiding some treasure, he pulled her over.
Nannan quickly hid the note behind her body, but poor Tang Bushi's arms were long enough that he could not move. Instead, he grabbed the girl with both hands and took the note away.
"You bully me again." Nannan stomped her feet.
Tang Buci annoyed her and walked out the door. He opened the note in his palm and read it like this:
"Wist, this is the golden trick of drawing lots that your master gave you. What does it mean? Wait and see what happens? Your sister Xiaomei is almost dying. Is your master any good?"
"Isn't my master your master? Master has already said to just wait and see." Nannan said angrily.
"My idea is a brilliant one, and yours is just drawing lots. Show me your other one, hurry up, I don't believe it. This old man didn't write anything."
Tang Bushi was furious. He looked at Ye Xiaomei, her hair was curled up as if struck by lightning, like a braid on her head. At this critical juncture, that cheap master actually wrote two pieces of golden tips that were even more ridiculous than bullshit.
"I won't give it to you, I won't give it to you." Nannan obeyed her orders and ran out holding the cloth bag.
"Hey, this isn't right." Zhang Fusheng, who was standing behind him, took a deep breath and looked closely at Ye Xiaomei, who showed no reaction.
"Logically, this girl should have reacted. The needle that I have spent so many years to improve cannot fail to work."
Crackling, crackling...
A delicate sound was heard.
Zhang Erquan didn't care about recognizing his relatives. He pointed at Ye Xiaomei on the bed and shouted in surprise: "Sister-in-law? Look at what happened to my sister-in-law?"
Tang Bushi's pupils shrank, and Ye Xiaomei's tattered clothes on the straw bed were visibly stretched open, and silver scales quickly grew on the exposed skin.
Soon it covered her lower body, and her legs merged into one as if under a spell, and a huge snake tail gradually extended.
"Ah..." Zhang Erquan screamed and ran away.
The people of Changshou Village had all seen white snakes, but none of them, including Zhang Erquan, had ever seen a white snake with a human head and a snake body.
Zhang Fusheng was so scared that his legs were shaking. When he first saw her, there was indeed a snake spirit parasitizing her, but who knew it was the spirit of an ancestor.
He had only heard of such things but never seen them in his life, and this time he was almost scared to death by his old man.
Tie Zui quickly hid behind his grandfather. Tang Buci looked scary, staring at Ye Xiaomei's suddenly changing body.
"Ye... Ye Xiaomei... what happened to you? Were you devoured by the ancestral spirit? Don't scare me, or your husband will come after me and kill me." Tang Bushi's face turned pale, and he grabbed Zhang Fusheng and pulled him out of the thatched hut:
"What the hell was that needle you just used? You stabbed me to death, I don't care, you have to cure me today, no matter how much money you pay."
At this moment, Nana, who had run far away, was so frightened that she put her hands in her mouth and stared at the thatched roof with her eyes wide open:
"Ah... the big snake."
With this shout, everyone looked up at the sky, including the villagers who had followed to the mountain to watch the planting of the red maple tree roots. Their attention was drawn to this scene.
I saw the roof of the thatched hut being blown up and a cloud of straw flying all over the sky. A giant python with a human head and a snake body coiled up. The raised half of its body was beautiful and seductive, and its long hair fluttered in the wind.
She looked down at the earth with clear and confused eyes, and there was indifference and strangeness in her calmness.
Tang Buci was so frightened that he took two steps back. His throat was dry and he opened his mouth with difficulty: "Girl, Ye Xiaomei, do you know who I am?"
Zhang Fusheng opened his mouth wide, his mind in a mess, and the words that Tang Bushi had just said kept circling in his mind.
Huilong Needle is indeed a treatment for the soul. Currently, no one in the world dares to claim to be the best, but...
Thinking of this, Zhang Fusheng's heart sank. It was bad. The bad thing was that he did not carefully observe the changes in the spirit snake energy in this girl's body.
He gritted his teeth and stamped his feet: "Oh, how could I know that she was the spirit of the ancestor? Now, she didn't even leave a will."
Time passed second by second, and there was still a strangeness in the eyes of Ye Xiaomei, who had a human head and a snake body.
Tang Buci was like a deflated ball: "You really don't recognize me? I am Tang Buci, otherwise..."
Tang Bushi was walking around in circles. The other villagers were so frightened that they didn't dare to watch the show on the mountain anymore. They all ran out of the village.
"However, think about it again. Do you remember Yao Baiye? The one who painted... Think about it carefully."
"Are you, Ming Tanghuang?" Ye Xiaomei's voice became light, delicate, ethereal and vague.
"Yes, yes, I am Ming Tanghuang." Tang Buci was delighted. It seemed that he still remembered him. He couldn't help but feel excited:
"Do you remember that painting? The painting of a hundred flowers in full bloom. Actually, I already knew your identity at that time."
Zhang Fusheng looked at Tang Bushi in astonishment. The Mingtang period had a history of thousands of years ago, and this grandson said that he was the Emperor of Mingtang?
Unexpectedly, the snake's tail came towards him with a whistling sound, and the tail actually pulled Tang Bushi more than ten meters away.
Zhang Fusheng obviously felt that the situation was out of control and too scary. He pulled the hammer and shouted, "Go, go, go, run for your life."
Tiezhu, who had been frightened into a fool, was pulled stiffly by his grandfather and ran out of the village along with the crowd.
Zhang Erquan, who was unaware of the situation, was so scared that he closed the door and trembled. He had indeed doubted his sister-in-law's identity before, because it was impossible for ordinary people to know so much about Changshou Village.
But he never dreamed that his sister-in-law was actually a snake spirit. No, he had to find a way to inform the eldest brother. Even though he had been persuaded to retreat, the eldest brother valued him the most and took care of him like his own brother.
Zheng Yue'e took a look through the crack of the door and saw the woman with a human head and a snake body swimming down from the roof. She rolled her eyes in fear.
"Stupid emperor!" Ye Xiaomei glanced at the unconscious Tang Bushi and cursed him coldly.
Nannan was so scared that she covered her mouth and dared not say a word until she saw Xiaomei, who seemed like a completely different person, disappear into the forest of Changshou Mountain. Then she ran over and pushed Tang Buci:
"Junior brother, wake up, wake up quickly... What should I do? Master didn't tell me what to do at this time, wuwuwu..."
