snake coffin

Chapter 16
Even though I held him tightly with both hands, Mo Xiu just touched my face, intending to pull me up: "If it's really hot, take a cold shower first, and I'll go find rice."

Seeing that I didn't move, Mo Xiu stretched out his hand to pull me.

"My body is so soft, painful and hot..." I tried my best to get off the edge of the bed, and went to take a cold shower.

But when he tried hard, his body didn't get up at all, but fell directly to the ground.

The cold tiles made me feel a lot more comfortable. I simply put myself on the tiles like "big", with my face pressed against the cold tiles.

"Long Ling, Long Ling!" Mo Xiu called me in my ear, but I fell asleep again.

In the dream, it seemed that someone hugged me to the bed, followed by a cold thing that hugged me tightly, cooling down the temperature in my body.

When I woke up, I was already in the hospital.

Grandma was sitting at the head of the bed, sewing something, and talking to Qin Mipo.

Seeing that I woke up, grandma quickly asked me if I wanted to drink water or go to the toilet, and asked Qin Mipo to help me call the nurse.

After the doctors and nurses were busy, I realized that I had been exposed to the rain, was frightened, and had a fever and a severe cold, but there was no trace of poisoning in my blood. It seemed that snake venom could not be detected.

If it cannot be detected, it proves that there is no cure.

Grandma waited for the doctor to leave, then told me: "Two of Chen Shun's family of four died. Your parents were afraid of being blackmailed, so they went out to work the night they found you."

Are my parents running away?

I immediately felt something was wrong when I heard it, and turned to look at Qin Mipo aside. She took what grandma had just sewn, looked at me and nodded.

So it's not that I'm afraid of extorting money, but I'm also afraid that I'll ask more about Snake Coffin and the village.

Whether it is my father or my mother, they agreed to bury me in the coffin after I was born. It seems that there is a last resort.

And my dad seemed to be under a lot of stress that night and got angry at me.

"Where are Chen Shun and Chen Quan?" Aren't their father and son also in the hospital?
"I haven't woken up yet." Grandma also looked worried.

I also wanted to ask about things in the village, but the nurse came right after me to distribute medicine, so it was hard for me to ask.

But just as the nurse handed out the medicine and walked out, she heard a clear female voice calling: "Long Ling!"

The voice was not very familiar, but when I looked up, I saw Long Xia in a long white dress, standing at the door, with her back against the light, showing the weird smile when she opened her mouth in the snake coffin last night, her eyes were straight. look at me.

I suddenly felt cold all over my body and grabbed my grandma: "Is this?"

Qin Mipo's sewing hand paused, and she shouted to Long Xia: "Get out!"

But Long Xia didn't care at all. Her eyes with light behind them shrank like the eyes of a snake, her head tilted left and right, and her nose moved slightly, as if she was sniffing something.

She walked to the hospital bed, leaned in front of Qin Mipo, and said in a very low voice: "Qin Mipo, you don't want to be bitten to death by a snake like your aunt, right? She was bitten so much that she could sift through the skin, right? , this is the fate of your Qin family’s meddling in other people’s affairs.”

She said this in a low voice, but it was as if she was saying it in my ear, and she kept looking at me.

The pupils were shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it seemed that at a certain moment when they contracted, she would turn into a snake and pounce towards me.

I was so frightened that I tightly held the black snake jade bracelet on my wrist and leaned against the head of the bed, feeling confused and afraid at the same time.

What the hell is the snake coffin? I clearly saw Long Xia being swallowed!
"Long Ling, you don't recognize me!" Grandma grabbed me.

He said in a deep voice: "This is your cousin Long Xia, who is only more than a month older than you. You played together when you were children."

"The next morning after I found you, the villagers found her at the entrance of the village." Grandma sighed.

He patted my hand and said, "Your cousin has cancer and it's hard to think about it. Even if he hasn't been found yet, many people in the village were bitten by snakes in order to find him, and several people died. Oh, what a sin!"

I looked at my grandma in surprise, so she didn’t know about finding the snake coffin that night?

How did the cousin control grandma?

But Long Xia turned around and lay on my grandma's shoulder obediently: "Long Ling, don't you remember me? We met in the grave that night?"

When she said this, her voice was hollow and calm.

Mo Xiu immediately said in my ear: "She came back, which proves that the snake coffin refused to have her and turned her into the coffin guardian of the snake coffin."

I don't know what a coffin guardian is, but looking at Long Xia's face, I feel cold all over.

I turned my head and glanced at Qin Mipo. She also frowned and shook her head at me, signaling me not to move.

Long Xia squeezed my grandma's shoulders and smiled at me: "My dad had an accident and I transferred here. I happened to be in the same class as you, Long Ling. By the way, I just met your classmate Zhang Hanzhu next to me."

There was obviously something in her words, and I just looked at her seriously.

Grandma sighed on the side, she didn't know anything about what Tang uncle did.

He even held Long Xia's hand and said with emotion: "It will be better to wait until I find your father. Don't delay your college entrance examination."

Long Xia's eyes fell on my wrist: "This jade bracelet is so beautiful? Can you show it to me?"

When she said that, she started to touch it.

"No." I refused directly.

Grandma also knew the importance of the black snake jade bracelet, so she took Long Xia's hand and said, "Aren't you going to report at school today?"

"I'm going to be afraid alone, grandma will send me." Long Xia put her arms around my grandma and said affectionately, "Is that okay?"

But he turned his head back to look at me, with a weird smile on his face.

"Grandma!" I shouted quickly.

My grandma waved her hand hurriedly: "Just find a car and go there. Long Ling is still sick here and needs someone to accompany him."

Long Xia put her hand on my grandma's shoulder, and left with a smile.

Just when her hand left, she saw a snake tail quickly running into grandma's clothes.

I opened my eyes wide in fright, but Qin Mipo calmly took a small bag of rice from the bedside table for me, and I quickly took it and put it under the quilt.

Grandma obviously felt uncomfortable too, and touched her shoulder: "Long Ling, look at how cheerful Long Xia is. You two will get along more at school in the future. You also have a companion..."

I squeezed the rice bag tightly and waited for grandma to approach, then stretched out my hand to pull her: "Grandma, sit down, I have something to tell you."

"Your parents are really helpless. This person has to pay hundreds of thousands..." Grandma thought I was angry, so she came up to me and said, "How can you compensate others if you don't go out to work to make money?"

Just when grandma lowered her neck, I stretched out my hand and pulled her collar open. I saw several snakes as thin as ropes lying on her back, with their sharp snake tails poking into the hollow of her spine.

I threw the bag of rice into her clothes. As soon as the rice rolled in, all the little snakes immediately swam around with their arms raised, poking the snake tails into the flesh and pulling at the flesh, as if they could no longer be pulled out.

"It hurts!" Grandma screamed in pain, and was about to grab the rice with her backhand.

"Hold it!" Qin Mipo shouted hurriedly.

I didn't care whether I respected the elderly or not, so I pressed my grandma's shoulders and pressed her on the hospital bed.

Qin Mi Po got out of bed holding the needle and opened her grandma's top.

The little snakes showed up, roared, exposed their fangs, and hissed loudly.

I turned the black snake jade bracelet on my wrist, and the little snakes immediately paralyzed and fell down softly.

"This is a silk snake." Mo Xiu was in the black snake jade bracelet, holding his head half up: "It was brought out of the snake coffin. Long Xia really came out of the snake coffin."

This snake didn't look like silk at all, but the silk snake was already dead. Qin Mipo pulled the snake's body and used a needle to pick out the snake's tail that was stuck in the flesh.

"What's that on my back? It hurts so much, it seems like even the seams of the bones are being pulled." Grandma was throbbing in pain, with cold sweat dripping from her forehead.

"The snake released by Longxia." Qin Mipo put the snake she picked out in front of grandma: "She is not human anymore."

When grandma saw the snake, her eyes burst out with hatred.

When Qin Mi Po picked out all four silk snakes and threw them into the trash can: "Take them and burn them. If these things are left, they will be a disaster."

I took iodophor from the bedside to help grandma disinfect the wound, after thinking about it, I still told the story about Long Xia and her cousin being swallowed by the snake coffin that day.

Grandma suddenly froze and turned to look at me: "You said she was swallowed by a snake coffin and came back?"

Just as I was about to nod, grandma stood up suddenly as if she was shaking, "I want to go back to the village. Long Xia has become a snake woman and is back. The snake woman is back..."

"If a snake woman appears in the village, the village will suffer a big disaster." Grandma seemed to be very scared, with fear in her eyes.
