Chapter 378 Shen Wan is the Man of Destiny
A sinister and vicious light emanated from the vertical pupils of Goddess Wang. "Of course I ate him. There are not many filial children in this world. Their meat is very delicious. Hahahahaha——"
She laughed wildly, and more and more snake scales appeared on her body, almost turning the mummy into a snake corpse.
Chen Wan shook his head: "You are really stubborn. You used the name of the witch to attract so many people here, just to take the opportunity to kill them."
"Yes, that's right! But I never expected you to be such an unexpected person." Wang the witch stared at her, her eyes as sinister as poison. "Tell me, who are you?"
"Why can you come back from the future?"
"You, what is your origin?"
Chen Wan smiled and said, "You are good at fortune-telling, try again."
"Life and death... the dead return... rebirth appears... rebirth appears..." Wang the witch kept repeating this sentence.
Suddenly, her eyes became terrified and a hissing sound mixed with regret came out of her mouth.
"You are the man of destiny..."
After saying this, Wang the witch's spirit instantly dissipated, like a deflated ball, all her strength was drained away, and she collapsed to the ground.
Then, an amazing scene appeared.
The snake scales on her body became dry, and the snake skin fell off her body layer by layer, sticking to the human skin.
Qi Chong was dumbfounded, "What happened to her?"
Chen Wan said calmly: "You know you can't beat me, so you've lost your spirit."
“Big Snake, although it is not easy for you to practice for nearly a thousand years, you have committed the crime of killing, so I can only accept you.”
Shen Wan took a step forward and stretched out his hand towards Wang Shenpo's forehead.
At that moment, witch Wang suddenly grabbed her hand and bit it hard.
When Chen Wan used his backhand to slap her away, the big snake suddenly used all its strength to break free from the suppression of the talisman, turned into a shadow and flew out of the skylight.
"Master Shen! How are you? Are you okay?"
Chen Wan glanced at the back of his hand and took out the two front teeth of Old Lady Wang that were almost sunk into the flesh. "It's okay, I'll leave those three to you. I'll go to the mountains to take a look."
Qi Chong nodded: "Be careful!"
Shen Wan quickly rushed to the mountain cemetery.
Village chief Wang is still leading everyone to dig graves.
Originally, the villagers were protesting against the digging of their ancestors' graves. It was not until Old Ancestor Wang showed up to explain the reason that everyone believed that a giant man-eating snake had come to the village.
Everyone dug up their ancestral graves with trepidation to check if there were any big snakes, but they were horrified to find that there were only a pile of rags and some broken bones in the coffin.
Apparently, the remains of their ancestors were also chewed by the giant snake.
"You damned snake! Why are you gnawing on the bones of my ancestors instead of eating the wild mice in the mountains?"
Village Chief Wang was also angry and asked, "Is the snake lacking calcium?"
Everyone stared at him quietly.
Village Chief Wang coughed lightly and said, "Okay, stop talking nonsense and start digging. Master Shen said that the real body of the snake is hidden in a grave. We need to continue digging to find out which grave it is."
A gust of cold wind suddenly blew in the originally peaceful forest.
A cold wind carrying a strong fishy smell swept over everyone.
Everyone was blown to and fro by the wind, and the graveyard was filled with flying sand and rocks, making it impossible to see clearly.
"Where does such a strong wind come from?"
"Wait, could it be that a giant snake has appeared?"
"Ahhhh where is the big snake!"
The villagers looked terrified and hid behind the trees, trembling.
Although Old Ancestor Wang was also afraid of monsters, he thought that he was going to die anyway, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
He floated over and stood in front of the villagers, observing their surroundings. "I don't see any big snakes. Don't scare yourselves."
"Snakes have a very fishy smell. Did you smell it just now?"
"I smell it! It must be a big snake!"
"We are human, how can we defeat monsters? I won't dig anymore, I want to go home and eat!"
Someone took the lead and wanted to leave, and others also started to quit.
Village Chief Wang was dumbfounded: "You don't care about your ancestors. The bones of your ancestors were eaten by the giant snake. Your ancestors must be living in misery in the underworld just like my ancestors!"
Someone said fearfully: "Village chief, of course we are worried that our ancestors are not doing well in the underworld, but we are even more afraid that the big snake will come to settle accounts with us."
"How about we move the grave?"
"Yes, now that we have dug it up and seen it, we might as well choose a new ancestral grave and give this piece of land to the big snake."
Village Chief Wang was furious: "What do you mean by giving our ancestral grave to the big snake? The graves of our ancestors in Wangjiazhuang are all here. This is where our ancestors chose it. Can you just move the graves if you want?"
When Patriarch Wang saw the villagers trying to run away, he looked gloomy and said angrily, "Do you want me to go down and call all your ancestors up and beat you up?"
Everyone was complaining.
Just then, Shen Wan arrived.
"Master Shen, you are finally here. If you don't come, everyone will run away." Village Chief Wang said hurriedly: "Just now there was a gust of cold wind blowing over the cemetery. It smelled so fishy and unpleasant!"
"Everyone is wondering if the big snake is here to settle accounts with us?"
Shen Wan's expression was light: "The big snake is coming."
"Oh my god! The big snake is coming, run!"
"I told you the big snake was going to eat us!"
When the villagers heard this, they dropped their hoes and shovels and turned around and ran away.
Chen Wan stopped them and said, "You can escape on the first day, but you can't escape on the fifteenth. If you want Wangjiazhuang to be safe, you must work together to find the big snake."
Someone suddenly raised a different opinion, "Speaking of which... the giant snake only eats corpses and animals, and has never eaten humans."
"It also possessed Old Lady Wang to help our village solve problems. It helped us a lot."
"If we voluntarily offer the big snake as a sacrifice, maybe it will become the patron saint of our Wangjiazhuang!"
Someone immediately agreed: "Yes, yes, I think so too."
"The big snake just wants to eat meat, right? We can just buy some pigs, cows, sheep or something for it to eat."
Village chief Wang was dumbfounded. It turned out that everything he said at the beginning was in vain.
People, when it comes to profit, they disregard everything else.
Chen Wan looked at the villager who proposed to offer the snake as a sacrifice, "Who said that the snake has never eaten people?"
"How do you know that the person who died as predicted by Goddess Wang was not eaten by a giant snake?"
The villagers looked at each other and really didn't think about it in this regard.
Village Chief Wang looked at Shen Wan: "Master Shen, what do you think we should do now?"
Shen Wan looked around and saw that one-fifth of the graves had been dug up, leaving most of the graves unopened.
Such a huge project cannot be completed in a day or two.
Shen Wan couldn't wait that long.
Now that the spirit of the big snake has returned to its true form, it may escape from underground into the mountains and forests at any time. Finding it at that time will be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
