Chu Yuan looked gloomy and didn't speak for a long time. After thinking for a long time, his dark eyes focused on me.

"I'm going out to prepare a few things. Just wait here for me to come back!" He said seriously, and then he was ready to go out.

My heart tightened and I subconsciously reached out to grab him.

Chu Yuan patted my hand gently: "I will be quick."

"Yeah!" I nodded slightly and loosened his sleeves.

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

This village is not peaceful. He is still seriously injured and has not recovered. I am afraid that something bad will happen to him when he goes out at night.

In addition, I am also worried that the devil snake will come to my door.

Fortunately, the process was smooth and no accidents occurred until Chu Yuan walked in from the darkness at the door.

There was a worn-out porcelain bowl in his hand, and there was half a bowl of thick and smelly liquid in the bowl, which was a bit shocking.

"What is this?" I asked nervously, pointing to the blood in the bowl.

Chu Yuan said to me calmly: "Crow's blood!"

My heart skipped a beat. I wonder how he got this thing so late at night.

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

I didn't know what he was going to do, but getting crow blood would obviously not be a good thing. I felt a little nervous, but I still nodded.

"Yes!" I said quietly.

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

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

"I'll find a way to remove the snake seed from 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 and looked at me.

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

Not to mention that keeping this thing is a big disaster, but just thinking about the snake in my body makes me feel sick.

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

"Let's get started." Chu Yuan said simply.

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

I screamed out in pain, and Chu Yuan quickly came up to help me, but when he saw this, he drew another talisman.

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

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

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

Chu Yuan's face darkened, and when he saw this, he reached out and slapped several snakes away, turning them into black smoke and dissipating.

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

"alright?"

Seeing a few snake shadows dissipate, my nervousness eased.

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

"Put your index finger open and put your hand inside!" Chu Yuan took out a prepared broken bowl piece, put a piece of talisman paper on the crow's blood, and said to me: "The longer you delay, the worse it will be.

Trouble, don’t be afraid!”

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

He glanced at me, took my hand, squeezed his palm, looked at me, pursed his lips and smiled reluctantly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

"I'm not afraid of pain." I looked at his appearance and suddenly found it a bit funny.

Chu Yuan nodded, then grabbed my hand, but his move was very neat, and he cut off all the index fingers of both my hands with a loud bang.

The hole was not deep, but blood seeped out.

He directly took my hand and placed it on the blood-stained cinnabar charm in the porcelain bowl. At the same time, he moved his right hand around my shoulder, pinched something with one hand, and pointed it down my arm.

I felt nothing at first, but as he moved lower, the tingling sensation of a foreign body in my left hand came.

This time it wasn't just a pang, but something seemed to be pricking my entire left hand.

Actually, I'm not a person who is afraid of pain. I wouldn't even prick my eyes when I get an injection. This would make me sweat in pain in this cold air-raid shelter.

My whole left arm was numb, and the stabbing pain made all my muscles twitch.

Chu Yuan also kept pulling something down my arm.

Slowly, I felt that my left arm no longer belonged to me.

Holding back the pain, he looked at his left hand, which had been flooded with blood. The blood on his fingertips slowly flowed down his fingers, and even flowed onto the crow's blood mixed with the medicine that seeped through the cinnabar talisman.

I looked at the streaks of blood and felt a little scared.

He turned to Chu Yuan and asked: "How long will it take?"

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

He stared at it without moving, and I couldn't help but stare at it.

After a while, under the dim light, I saw the red flesh open wound, and it seemed like a white thing as thick as a hair was slowly coming out of the wound.

The thing was like the white parasite in the frog's leg that I saw in the documentary before. The thing seemed to be sticking its head at the wound, moving around, as if it was looking for something.

Then he slowly pulled his body along my fingers, crawled out from my opened fingertips, and crawled down along the blood.

Just after it crawled out, I realized that it was like a very thin snake with no skin!

I looked at my wound, and a snake as thin as a hair, peeled off, and as pale as a parasite crawled 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 brave enough, I wanted to jump up and shake it hard to get rid of this thing.

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

He stretched out his right hand and hugged my shoulders tightly, holding me forcefully 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 if you don't look at it, the sticky squirming feeling becomes more and more clear.

What's more, I can still feel something slowly crawling out of the wound on my fingertips. The wound stings slightly, with a sense of withdrawal.

I didn't dare to look at it anymore. I grabbed Chu Yuan's clothes tightly, gritted my teeth, and thought about the past over and over again to distract myself.

But as I thought about it, the crawling feeling in my hands got stronger.

It's very much like when I was a kid, I grabbed the eel in the bucket and swam around it quickly and silently in my hands.

I felt the cold and slippery feeling on my fingertips, which made me tremble with fear.

Chu Yuan kept hugging me tightly and covering my eyes tightly with his hands.

I don’t know how long it took, but it was so long that I could remember every scene I had with my grandma when I was a child.

Chu Yuan whispered in my ear: "I want to confirm again. Don't be afraid if you see my loosened hand."

I nodded, and he slowly loosened his hold on me, then put his fingers together, pressed gently and slowly from my right shoulder, and pulled it all the way to my left shoulder.

Just as he was pushing it, I opened my eyes and looked at the porcelain bowl.

I saw that the chicken blood mixed with medicinal powder was filled with things as thin as hair, half a finger long, with a slightly big head and a thin tail, like a snake or a tadpole like those in popular science textbooks.

They were sinking and floating in the bloody water, swimming happily.
