Chapter 46 Chapter 46 When Chen Wei woke up early in the morning,...
When Chen Wei got up early in the morning, he did not see any trace of Duan Zhou. He walked back and forth in the inn but could not find him. They were originally planning to leave, but Wu Man said that the little black snake was very close to them, so Chen Wei simply decided to stay here for a few more days and find a way to bring the little black snake back to the Wanshou Sect to let it feel the warmth from the Wanshou Sect.
As a result, the little black snake was not found, and the swordsman was lost first.
"Duan Zhou!" Chen Wei walked around and finally leaned against the door, looking helplessly at the bustling crowd coming and going. With a casual glance, he knew that Duan Zhou was not there at all.
Because with Duan Zhou's character and appearance, if he were in this crowd, Chen Wei would definitely see him at first sight.
"Selling candied haws! Selling candied haws!" A small vendor selling candied haws walked over. Chen Wei suddenly remembered Duan Zhou's surprised and secretly delighted look when he received the candied haws last time, so he simply went up again, took out two cents and bought a candied haws.
However, they waited until the evening, but there was no sign of Duan Zhou. It was as if this swordsman had disappeared out of thin air. Chen Wei became a little impatient. He sent a sound transmission note to Duan Zhou, but Duan Zhou did not respond.
Finally, he had no choice but to get up and look for it. When he was about to pack up the package and go find Duan Zhou, he didn't expect that when he opened the door, he saw a small black snake lying on the floor, looking dying.
"?" Shen Wei was startled. He never expected that the little black snake he had been looking for everywhere would appear before his eyes. Shen Wei immediately stepped forward to look at the little black snake. The black snake had no wounds on its body. It seemed to be just a little uncomfortable. It stared at Shen Wei with cold and vigilant eyes.
"Hiss--" the little black snake made a series of sparse sounds.
"Little black snake?" Shen Wei stepped forward and wanted to check it out. After being almost bitten, he behaved himself and stood at a distance from the little black snake, observing it.
This little black snake was completely black with shiny scales. It didn't look like it was seriously injured, but it looked weak. Shen Wei guessed that it might have internal injuries.
When Shen Wei went forward to check, he did not notice the anger and helplessness that flashed across the little black snake's eyes, which finally turned into deep sadness.
This black snake was certainly not any other snake, it was Duan Zhou which had transformed into its original form.
After a night of thinking, Duan Zhou finally came to a conclusion. He felt that since the little black snake had come to Chen Wei's side, it meant that Chen Wei would most likely meet the black snake soon, and love and hate between them were all possible.
It can even be said that even if Chen Wei cannot find the little black snake now, he will keep looking for it and will find it sooner or later.
Unless you completely give up the idea of being in danger.
So, Duan Zhou decided to impersonate the little black snake. After all, based on the fact that Shen Wei had mistaken the snake for a snake when he was fighting with Chen Liqing before, Shen Wei might not be very familiar with the little black snake, so it would not be difficult to impersonate it.
The dragon simply transformed into its original form, shrunk its body, and hooked its claws, pretending that it was still a snake, trying to get Chen Wei to pick it up.
He didn't want Chen Wei to stay in this inn any longer. After all, Wu Man said that the little black snake was very close to Chen Wei.
Duan Zhou would never allow any rival snake to appear in front of him.
Sure enough, Shen Wei, who picked up the "injured little black snake", almost immediately showed a complicated look. He stepped forward and took a closer look at the snake. It was indeed a little black snake, exactly as predicted.
"How did you get hurt?" Chen Wei half-knelt down and looked at the little black snake. He said slowly, "Come back with me. I will treat you well. The entire Wanshou Sect will treat you well."
The little black snake had a cold expression, and an indescribable complex meaning flashed across its narrow pupils.
"You are injured? I will heal you. I have no ill will towards you." Chen Wei tried to persuade it and said, "I will treat you well and protect you. The entire Wanshou Sect will protect you."
Therefore, you must not bear a grudge against the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, and do not grow into a snake that destroys the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.
A trace of pain flashed across the little black snake's eyes. It lowered its head and lay on the table. It looked like it was seriously injured and unable to get up. In fact, it was purely because of emotional hurt.
"Chen Wei..." The little black snake spit out a little bit of its tongue, then closed its breath and eyes, ready to play dead. As a result, it felt a warm spiritual power flowing into its body. He stared at Chen Wei with wide eyes in shock. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly remembered his identity. He gritted his teeth and hissed twice, trying to bite Chen Wei.
But just when the fangs were about to touch Chen Wei, it paused again.
It remembered that the toxins in Shen Wei's body had just healed, and he couldn't be poisoned again at this moment.
When the little black snake thought of this, his whole body froze, and he turned his head away, looking as if he didn't want to pay any attention to Chen Wei.
Duan Zhou just wanted to pretend to be the little black snake to be mean to Shen Wei, so that Shen Wei would give up thinking about the little black snake. Duan Zhou was the only one in his heart, so he didn't really want to poison Shen Wei, and he was reluctant to really hurt Shen Wei.
God knows Duan Zhou had actually been circling around for a whole day. He wanted to find the little black snake and kill it before Chen Wei saw it to prevent future troubles. However, he ended up running around and saw nothing.
In the end, this is the only option left.
"I will really treat you well, believe me." Shen Wei's policy of appeasement has always been effective, especially for those spiritual beasts with slight psychological defects. However, when encountering the stubborn little black snake in front of him, all his skills seemed to be ineffective. The gentler he was, the colder the black snake looked at it. It was more like anger than cold disgust.
"You are injured. You should recover here. I won't hurt you." Chen Wei said again. He even took out a pill from his brocade bag and handed it to the little black snake to show that he had no ill intentions.
For Chen Wei, this little black snake was of the right species, had the right color, had the right experience, and appeared at the right time. It was definitely the little black snake that finally destroyed the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.
"Hiss--" The little black snake closed its eyes and didn't want to respond to a word, as if it had fainted from anger.
When Chen Wei went out, he closed the door. He stood at the door, hesitating whether to watch the door or go find Duan Zhou. However, before he could think, he soon saw a figure walking towards the stairs. The other person was not as gentle as before, and there was a hint of coldness between his eyebrows. But when he saw Chen Wei, the coldness on his face could not be broken.
"Brother Duan." Without waiting for Duan Zhou to come forward, Chen Wei directly grabbed Duan Zhou and said, "Don't go in yet, the little black snake is coming."
"What little black snake?" Duan Zhou asked knowingly.
"Enemy snake." Chen Wei lowered his voice and said, "It seems to be seriously injured and has fallen asleep now. Let's not go to this room."
"You want me to give up my room for it? You want to live in the same room with it?" Duan Zhou sneered, "Sect Master Shen."
"?" Chen Wei also looked at Duan Zhou in confusion, and asked in confusion: "When did I say I want to live in the same house with it? Brother Duan?"
"Then what do you want to say?" Duan Zhou knew that he was pretending to be the little black snake in the house. God knew he had just transformed into a human form without stopping, then opened the window and jumped down, and immediately walked in from the door of the inn. This series of actions was as smooth as flowing water.
"I want to say, let's sleep in another room." Chen Wei paused, turned his head carefully to look at the door, and then whispered: "It seems that it doesn't like outsiders to touch it."
"Didn't you touch its snake scales?" Duan Zhou narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke.
Chen Wei was stunned subconsciously, and after a moment he said: "Brother Duan? Were you there just now? How do you know that I touched its snake scales? I am innocent, I didn't, I touched it accidentally."
Duan Zhou coughed lightly, turned his head and said with a guilty look: "I didn't see it, I just guessed."
"Brother Duan." Chen Wei immediately came to his amulet and said with a flattering smile, "The little snake is seriously injured and can only rest and recover. I can't disturb it, so I have to let Brother Duan live with me."
Duan Zhou glanced at Chen Wei lightly. He turned his head and was about to leave. Chen Wei planned to quietly open the door to see about the little black snake. However, Duan Zhou, who had just turned around and was about to leave, suddenly turned back and pressed his hand directly on the door. Chen Wei looked at Duan Zhou in confusion.
"Come live with me." Duan Zhou paused, and then said: "Take it away from here immediately tomorrow and go to the Ten Thousand Beast Sect."
“…” Chen Wei didn’t know what to say for a moment. His keen intuition told him that either there was a conspiracy behind all this, or the swordsman in front of him was unhappy again.
"Didn't you say it was badly injured? If something happened to your beloved snake, Sect Master Shen would be heartbroken." Duan Zhou said sarcastically.
Chen Wei was sure that this was the intuition behind it. He approached with ease and said with a smile: "Brother Duan, you are wrong. Only when I live with Brother Duan can I feel really at ease. Not to mention living here, even if I return to the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, I also hope to live with Brother Duan forever."
"..."Duan Zhou looked like he didn't believe Chen Wei's sweet words at all.
"Brother Duan, I swear." Chen Wei said seriously, "I am more worried about your safety than the little black snake. I hope you can stay safely in the Ten Thousand Beast Sect. I also promise that I will treat you with the highest courtesy I can. This is my promise, Chen Wei."
After these words came out, Duan Zhou's expression became better. He raised his head and said in a cold voice: "Unique?"
"Unique." Shen Wei said.
Duan Zhou snorted coldly, thinking to himself, no matter whether you are unique or not, the little black snake's position is now taken by me.
Since he couldn't make Chen Wei firmly choose him between the two options, he might as well replace it with the other option.
