father snake

Neither person in the room noticed the anomaly.

Those who are reading books are reading, those who are sleeping are sleeping. At this time, Shi Xiaochuan was disturbed by the movement in his pocket. With a bitter face, he reached in, grabbed Xiaobai, dragged him out of his pocket, and gently put his index finger in his pocket. Pressing his head on the page, he let Xiaobai go, and when he raised his head, he pressed it down again with his fingers. While playing, he said in a low voice, "I'm making you disobedient, I'm making you disobedient, I'm making you disobedient." obedient!"

Xiao Bai flicked his tail to express his protest against this kind of playing.

The wisp of black mist had penetrated into Uncle Ping's ears, and Uncle Ping moved, so scared that Shi Xiaochuan immediately closed the book, and put his fingers between the pages of the book so as not to press Xiaobai.

After Uncle Ping moved, he fell asleep again, but the slight snoring just now could no longer be heard.

Shi Xiaochuan breathed a sigh of relief, opened the book, and saw that Xiaobai was still obediently staying between the pages, coiled into a ball, with his head raised high, and the snake letter was swallowing rapidly, which is the vigilance of snakes.

He glanced at the nervous Xiaobai strangely, what is it about this library that makes Xiaobai so nervous?

The black mist that had been in Uncle Ping's body for a while slowly came out from his ears, and at the moment when it came out completely, Shi Xiaochuan heard Uncle Ping let out a quick gasp, and his forehead was covered with bean-sized sweat.

The wisp of black mist was obviously not satisfied yet, its slender body like a snake swayed, and slowly drifted towards Shi Xiaochuan.

The closer it is to Shi Xiaochuan, the more excited it is. It smells the long-lost delicious fragrance. For a long time, it has been tired of those shriveled human spirits. It can only be said that it is better than nothing. A long time ago, I could get better Tributes, and now, can only get some of the worst inferior goods.

These humans are getting worse and worse, maybe one day it should remind them who is the boss.

The dazed and ignorant Shi Xiaochuan was taking out the box, intending to check the movement of the snake egg. He had to check it countless times every day, but it was a pity that the snake egg hadn't changed at all since he brought it back.

The lid of the box was opened, and the snake egg was lying there quietly. Under the light of the fluorescent lamp, it was shiny and white, looking comfortable and peaceful. Shi Xiaochuan wiped off a small black spot on the snake egg with his fingertips, but no matter how he wiped it off, , the black spot is still stubbornly sticking to the eggshell.

Shi Xiaochuan thought for a while, dipped some tea on his fingers, and planned to continue.

The wisp of black mist passed over Shi Xiaochuan, and the target was actually the snake egg in his hand, it circled around the snake egg happily, and planned to get in.

At this time, Xiaobai, who had been on alert all along, stood upright, jumped from the open book into the palm of Shi Xiaochuan, and hit the snake egg squarely. Steady the egg so it falls to the ground.

This accident made Shi Xiaochuan a little angry, he stretched out his index finger annoyed and planned to touch Xiaobai's head, but Xiaobai dodged his finger nimbly.

He looked at the missing finger, and was stunned. Xiaobai didn't even look at him, but just stared at the egg—or the black mist next to the egg.

The black mist, who was eager for delicious food, was interrupted, and suddenly became furious, writhing angrily, getting thicker and bigger, gradually becoming clear and distinct from almost invisible, Shi Xiaochuan stared dumbfounded at the sudden The black mist that filled the entire palm and wrapped the snake eggs inside.

He grasped the snake egg in his hand, and shook his hand desperately, trying to disperse the black mist sticking to his hand, but the black mist seemed to grow out of his hand, it didn't move at all, and the range gradually expanded. the size of a soccer ball.

Shi Xiaochuan was in a hurry.

Regardless of Uncle Ping who was sleeping next to him, he stood up, put the snake eggs into the box, and then put the box far away on the workbench. To his surprise, his hands immediately returned to normal, and the ball The black mist continued to spread around the box.

Uncle Ping, who was sleeping on the table next to him, was not awakened by the ping-pong-pong sound of his reckless movements, and fell into a deep sleep.

Fortunately, he could still hear his heavy breathing, otherwise, Shi Xiaochuan would suspect that he must have been killed by the black mist.

He ran back to the workbench again, and without any hesitation, he was about to reach into the black mist that was already as big as a basketball to rescue the snake egg, when he saw that Xiao Bai, who was ready to go, had already jumped into the black mist , Almost immediately, the cloud of black mist left the box containing the snake eggs and hung in mid-air.

Xiaobai was wrapped in it, the black mist rolled, in the dark thick fog, Xiaobai's body could be seen faintly, it opened its small mouth, swallowing the black mist bit by bit.

Black mist roared silently, the two of them fought together, even Shi Xiaochuan could see the intensity of the battle between the two sides, Xiaobai's swallowing speed became slower and slower, while the rolling speed of black mist also slowed down.

At this time, the black mist suddenly dissipated and spread to the entire room, and the lights were also turned off at this time.

Shrouded in this black mist, Shi Xiaochuan felt his head was a little heavy, as if all the strength in his body had been sucked away, and Uncle Ping's breathing became more and more rapid.

He wanted to escape from the room, he fumbled the workbench with his hands, and shouted softly, "Xiaobai, Xiaobai, Xiaobai—"

Many books on the workbench were dropped to the ground by his movements, making a bang bang sound. This sound made him more flustered, his body strength was gradually losing, but how could he find the snake eggs that were obviously placed on the table? Can't find it either.

Suddenly, with a "pop", the lights turned on again. Shi Xiaochuan was sweating and looked at the door. Teacher She Junhan was standing there with his hand still pressed on the switch. Pale, She Junhan frowned, looked at the mess on the workbench, and asked coldly, "What's going on?"

Shi Xiaochuan looked around in a daze, Xiaobai and Heiwu were both missing, and the box containing the snake eggs on the table was also gone, and Uncle Ping woke up suddenly, and was saying "It's okay, it's okay, I was looking for something just now." , Hehe, looking for something, not being careful, this is all carelessness."

Uncle Ping didn't even have the courage to look up at him, he seemed to be afraid of She Junhan.

She Junhan went into the library, quickly found a book, and put it on the workbench. Uncle Ping was very active this time. Of course, it was also because Shi Xiaochuan, who was distracted by these blows, was still in a daze. I haven't recovered.

Jun She gave Shi Xiaochuan a cold look, took the book, and left without looking back.

Uncle Ping wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, as if he was embarrassed by his timidity just now, he muttered, "My mother, this teacher is really scary. That look can kill you."

Shi Xiaochuan nodded silently, as an answer.

At nine o'clock, after work, before leaving work, he asked Uncle Ping to go first, and he searched the entire library carefully, but found nothing. On the way back to the dormitory, he also carefully paid attention to everything around him, maybe Xiaobai would take it with him. Snake eggs fell from the sky, just like in the past, and suddenly fell on his head, shoulders, and fingers.

However, nothing happened.

When passing by the Republic of China villa, Shi Xiaochuan found that the lights were still on, and it seemed that Teacher She Junhan hadn't rested yet.

Shi Xiaochuan stood there blankly, and the teacher on the podium patiently repeated the question just now. Zhang Guo, who was sitting in front of Shi Xiaochuan, covered his face with a book, kicked Shi Xiaochuan's desk, and gave him a hint in a soft voice. Ogawa didn't recover.Seeing the unresponsive and stupefied Shi Xiaochuan, the teacher frowned and wanted to get angry, but Shi Xiaochuan had good grades, and he was always obedient and docile. This kind of situation had never happened before, so he waved his hand , Let Shi Xiaochuan sit down.

Shi Xiaochuan's seat is next to the window. His eyes, which are always bright as springs, stared blankly at the tall camphor tree outside the window. He could climb to its messy branches by extending his hand. Once, Xiaobai was Climbing into the classroom from this tree, he thought.

After class, he ran to the teacher's office regardless of Zhang Guo's yelling behind him, and stood panting in front of the class teacher Shu Youcai, pleading in a low voice, "Teacher Shu, I want to change to a work-study job .”

Teacher Shu adjusted his glasses, narrowed his small mung bean eyes, and said slowly: "There is no special reason for the school's regulations, and it usually takes one semester." The implication is that you can change it, but you have to give someone reason.

Shi Xiaochuan nodded to show that he was aware of this rule. He hesitated for a while, "The last time I disappeared, it was there. I was so scared that I didn't dare to go." Anyway, if I disappeared at school, the school is responsible Shi Xiaochuan didn't know if he could take advantage of this to ask for a change of guard, but he couldn't find any other legitimate reason. No one would believe what he encountered in the library, and what he did now was already It's too late to make amends.

He felt pain and regret in his heart, how much joy the naughty and willful Xiaobai brought to himself, and finally dyed his lonely life a little bit of color, but now he disappeared out of thin air. The snake egg was a relic left by the giant snake. Lost it myself too.

Although he was still lucky, he always thought that maybe they would come back suddenly after a few days just like him, but five days had passed that night, except for his unchanging life and his constant suspicion, Nothing surprising happened.

Hearing his words, Teacher Shu pushed the glasses again, "The school will consider your situation, you go back first, and I will talk to the teacher in charge of this in the school to see how to arrange it."

Shi Xiaochuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he still didn't move his feet, and continued to ask: "Then teacher, do I still have to go to the library to be on duty tonight?"

Teacher Shu seemed a little impatient. The pen in his hand twirled around and fell on the table, making a soft "pop" sound, "If you don't want to go, don't go. The class bell is ringing. Let's not talk about it. The school will arrange it." Alright, let's go to class now."

Back in the classroom, facing Zhang Guo’s nagging, Shi Xiaochuan just looked out of the window blankly. Zhang Guo, who felt bored, also gradually calmed down. Following his eyes, he looked at the tree outside the window. Tuo's personality felt boring. He looked at Shi Xiaochuan, opened his mouth, and closed it again. Finally, he couldn't help it, touched Shi Xiaochuan's arm with his arm, and whispered: "Next weekend, my sister will get married. Come and play at my house."

Shi Xiaochuan finally turned around and gave him a strange look. Zhang Guo scratched his hair in embarrassment, "My sister is the grandson of the elder who married the elder of the elders in your Shi family ancestral hall."

Shi Xiaochuan shook his head disinterestedly. Although his surname is Shi, he has never participated in the clan sacrifices of the Shi family, and no one has asked him to participate. Although he has heard the names of those elders, he does not know them very well, let alone Specific to the grandchildren of these elders.

"Hey, please, go, go." Zhang Guo shook Shi Xiaochuan's arm and begged repeatedly, "To be honest, the members of your Shi family are quite strange, and my mother is against my sister's marriage. But my sister is going to get married, and if she refuses, she plans to run away from home. My mother has no choice but to agree. When the time comes, you stay in my room and don't come out. The adults are busy, so you can call me Any game."

Shi Xiaochuan shook his head, he didn't agree, he hated crowded and noisy places.

But who is Zhang Guo?He pestered Shi Xiaochuan for a whole day. In the end, Shi Xiaochuan was dizzy by his nagging. He nodded at some point and only heard Zhang Guo cheering. When he finally regained consciousness By the time, everything was settled.

Teacher Shu changed Shi Xiaochuan's job the next day. According to him, when the student who was assigned to help in the cafeteria heard that someone was willing to change the post in the library with him, he immediately agreed, so Shi Xiaochuan's future job will be Every day at noon and evening, I go to the cafeteria to help.

He greeted the uncles and aunts in the cafeteria one by one, and then consciously sat on the small bench in the corner and washed the cabbage piled on the ground.He carefully cleaned the vegetable leaves, picked out the rotten and yellowed cabbage leaves and put them in the plastic bucket next to him. After finishing the cabbage, he began to plan the potatoes one by one.

A little tired, but the smell of oily smoke here made Shi Xiaochuan feel at ease. The yelling, talking and laughing of the people next to him filled the whole room, as if filling every corner.He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and declined the suggestion of the aunt next to him to let him take a rest first, he needed to use these mechanical tasks to distract himself, so that he would not always think of Xiaobai and Snake Egg.

But the aunt snatched the potato and the peeling knife in his hand, and said repeatedly: "You child, rest if you are told, you are so exhausted, people who don't know, think We abuse child labor, go and play for a while, I will do the rest, why are you so obedient, my two little bastards, when they were your age, I asked them to break them from the vegetable garden You have to push and hold back a piece of garlic, dawdling." While muttering, she quickly planed the potatoes in her hand.

Shi Xiaochuan stood quietly aside. He looked at the piece of meat on the chopping board not far away, and felt that he might be dazzled, so he rubbed his eyes. It was still the same. That thin, white thing pressed by the piece of meat is what I thought it was?
