Chapter 174 Snake Mite
Chu Yuan's expression was gloomy and he didn't speak for a long time. After thinking for a long time, he put his dark eyes on me.

"I'm going out to prepare a few things, you just wait here for my return!" He explained seriously, and was ready to go out after speaking.

My heart tightened, and I reached out and grabbed him subconsciously.

Chu Yuan patted my hand lightly: "I will soon."

"Yeah!" I nodded slightly and let go of his sleeves.

Chu Yuan quickly disappeared into the night, and I waited anxiously in the room.

This village is not peaceful, he is seriously injured now, I am afraid that something bad will happen to him if he goes out at night.

In addition, I am also very worried that the magic snake will come to the door.

Fortunately, the period was smooth and nothing unexpected happened until Chu Yuan walked in from the darkness at the door.

He had an old porcelain bowl in his hand, and there was half a bowl of viscous and smelly liquid in the bowl, which was a bit shocking.

"What is this?" I pointed to the blood in the bowl and asked nervously.

Chu Yuan said to me calmly, "Crow blood!"

My heart skipped a beat, God knows how he got this thing in the middle of the night.

"Do you still have cinnabar and snake charms in your bag?" He asked again.

I don't know what he's going to do, but it's obviously not a good thing to get crow blood, so I feel a little nervous, but I still nodded.

"Yes!" I whispered.

He said in a deep voice, "Take it out."

Nervously, I took out the talisman and a pack of cinnabar powder and put them on the table.

"I'll try to get rid of the snake species on your body, but the process should be a bit painful!" Chu Yuan also put the crow's blood on the table, and then raised his head to look at me.

According to what Chu Yuan said, the snake in my body is actually the snake seed planted by the magic snake.

Don't say that keeping this thing is a big disaster, but just thinking of having a snake in my body, I can't cope in my heart.

Although I was curious about what Chu Yuan was going to do next and panicked about the unknown, I still nodded.

"Let's start." Chu Yuan was quite straightforward.

After I sat down, Chu Yuan drew a talisman on my hand with cinnabar. Immediately, I felt a sharp pain in the back of my neck, as if something was gnawing at the flesh on my neck.

I cried out in pain, Chu Yuan hurried up to support me, but drew another talisman upon seeing it.

"The snake is out!" he called to the shadow behind me.

I endured the pain and looked down, and saw a thumb-sized snake shadow emerging from the shadow behind me, twisting and struggling in the air.

After the snake shadow touched the rune, black smoke continued to be emitted out of thin air.

Chu Yuan's face darkened, and when he saw this, he stretched out his hand and slapped the snakes away, turning into black smoke and dissipating.

As the snake shadow was eliminated, the pain in the back of my neck also disappeared.

"All right?"

Seeing a few snake shadows dissipate, my nervous heart eased.

Chu Yuan shook his head firmly: "No, there are more difficult things!"

"Split your index finger and put your hand inside!" Chu Yuan took out a piece of broken bowl that he had prepared, put a piece of talisman paper on the crow's blood, and said to me, "The longer it takes, the better it will be." Please, don't be afraid!"

Although I didn't know what was going on, seeing Chu Yuan's serious tone, I didn't dare to delay and stretched out my hand.

He took a look, took my hand, squeezed the palm, looked at me, and smiled reluctantly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

"I'm not afraid of pain." Looking at his appearance, I suddenly found it a little funny.

Chu Yuan nodded, then grabbed my hand, but he did it very neatly, and cut off all the index fingers of my two hands in a hurry.

The hole was not deep, but there was blood oozing out.

He directly took my hand and placed it on the blood-stained cinnabar talisman in the porcelain bowl. At the same time, his right hand ran along my shoulder, pinching something with one hand, and pointing down along the arm.

I didn't feel anything at first, but as he pressed down, the foreign body tingling in my left hand came.

This time it's not just a slap, but it seems that something is pricking the whole left hand.

In fact, I am not a person who is afraid of pain. I don’t even prick my eyes when I get an injection. In this cold air-raid shelter, I am sweating from the pain.

The whole left arm was numb, and the tingling pain made my whole muscle twitch uncontrollably.

Chu Yuan also kept pulling something down my arm.

Gradually, I felt that my left arm was not my own anymore.

Enduring the pain, he looked at his left hand, which had already been covered in blood. The blood from the fingertips slowly flowed down the fingers, and all flowed onto the crow's blood mixed with medicine that had seeped through the cinnabar talisman.

I looked at the strips of blood, and I felt a little panicked.

Turning to ask Chu Yuan: "How long will it take?"

Chu Yuan glanced at me, gave a silent wink, and then stared at the wound on my finger.

This will stare at it without moving, so I can't help but stare at it.

After a while, under the dim light, I saw a wound with red flesh, as if a white thing as thick as a hair slowly came out of the wound.

That thing was like the white parasite in the frog's leg in the documentary I watched before. It seemed to be poking its head out at the wound, and it seemed to be looking for something.

Then he slowly pulled his body along my fingers, crawled out from the pulp of my scratched fingers, and crawled down along the bloody water.

Just after it crawled out, I realized that it was like a very thin snake without skin!

I looked at my wound, and there was a snake as thin as a hair, peeled off, and pale as a parasite, crawling out.

Immediately, I felt goosebumps all over my body, and my whole body was numb. Seeing that thing crawling on my fingers, even if I was as bold as me, I wanted to jump up, shake it hard, and shake it off.

Chu Yuan clearly sensed my change, and immediately grabbed his wrist with his left hand, forcing it into the porcelain bottle.

He stretched out his right hand and hugged my shoulder tightly, and forcibly hugged me in his arms. He also turned his hand to cover my eyes, and whispered in my ear: "Just don't look, don't move."

But don't look at it, the wet and sticky creeping feeling is becoming more and more clear.

What's more, I can still feel that something is slowly crawling out from the wound on the fingertips, and the wound is slightly tingling, with a feeling of pulling away.

I didn't dare to look at it anymore, I tightly grabbed the corner of Chu Yuan's clothes, gritted my teeth, and recalled the past over and over again to distract my attention.

But thinking about it, the sense of crawling in the hand became stronger.

It's like when I was a child, grabbing the eel in the bucket, swimming quickly and silently in the middle of my hand.

I felt the cold and slippery, swimming on my fingertips, trembling with fear.

Chu Yuan has been hugging me tightly, covering my eyes tightly with his hands.

I don’t know how long it has passed, but it’s been so long that I can recall the scenes when I was with my grandma when I was a child.

Chu Yuan whispered in my ear: "I have to confirm again, I let go of my hand, don't be afraid if you see it."

I nodded, and then he slowly let go of his arm around me, and then, with two fingers together, he pressed lightly and slowly from my right shoulder, and pulled it all the way to the left shoulder.

As he pushed, I opened my eyes and looked at the porcelain bowl.

I saw that the chicken blood mixed with medicinal powder was covered with fine hair, half a finger long, with a slightly large head and a thin tail, like a snake, or like a small tadpole in a popular science textbook.

They were ups and downs in the bloody water, swimming happily.
