father snake

Shi Xiaochuan was sweating profusely all over his body, only the area covered by scales on his feet was dry and dry, and it was cool and slippery to the touch. Shi Xiaochuan didn't know what he was thinking, but he just used his fingers to touch it. He touched his calf again and again.

At first, he comforted himself that he might have some strange skin disease, and he didn’t have any symptoms of this scaly skin disease, but then, he told himself, it’s not that simple, there can’t be any skin disease other than scales, There is neither pain nor itching, and there is no other abnormality in the body.

Just as he was carefully observing the things on his feet, the teacher from the infirmary came in. He almost reflexively put down his trousers, and then pulled the quilt over his body.

Seeing him half-sitting, the teacher in the infirmary walked over and touched his forehead, "Feel better? It seems that the heat is not so high."

Shi Xiaochuan nodded, holding his pants nervously with his hands hidden under the quilt, and he didn't know what he was worried about. The only thing he could be sure of was that he absolutely didn't want the scales on his feet to be discovered by others.

It's like a taboo, and he wants to bury this secret in the deepest part, and wants to live the same life as before.

But he suddenly felt an unbearable itching in that area of ​​his chest, and he desperately resisted the urge to scratch. The teacher in the infirmary walked up and down beside him, chanting, talking about school news for a while, and talking about it for a while. Trivial matters, it is probably rare to catch a chat, so they can talk endlessly.

With his trembling right hand, Shi Xiaochuan quietly opened his collar and looked inside. There was a large scale growing on his chest near his heart.

He buttoned his clothes up to his chin, and smoothed out the wrinkles on his clothes over and over again. He kept comforting himself in his heart, it's okay, it's okay, everything will be fine.

But will it all be all right?

He thought of the medicated baths Daoist Shi Song gave him when he was a child, the medicinal soup he had to eat, and the worried eyes that always looked at him secretly at places where he thought he wasn't paying attention. Maybe, he knew all along, He is not very healthy, maybe he is still a short-lived person, but he never thought that everything would happen so fast and so suddenly.

Xiao Bai was wrapped around his wrist, his blood vessels were throbbing, and with the rapid flow of his blood, Xiao Bai also circled around his wrist in circles.

Shi Xiaochuan looked at Xiaobai, and Xiaobai looked at him with a snake letter.

In the afternoon, the discomfort all over his body finally gradually disappeared, and his originally sickly appearance also regained some energy, as if this sudden illness came and went in a hurry and disappeared in a hurry, the fever subsided, and he did not feel dizzy The strength has returned, and he can even walk back to the dormitory slowly with the medicine alone.

After returning to the dormitory, Xiaobai automatically climbed down from his wrist, got into his own small box and coiled it into a ball. The bright white body was almost indistinguishable from the cotton pad underneath. Shi Xiaochuan took the box Gai pushed it away a little, grabbed Xiaobai out from inside, and put it under his eyelids to observe carefully.

Just now in the hospital it was not easy to check so blatantly. He glanced at the white and smooth snake skin, and then at the scales on his white and thin chest, and felt more and more that the two were very similar.

Could it be some virus or fungus that infected Xiaobai?Shi Xiaochuan thought about it.

After thinking about it, the medicine he took finally began to take effect, and gradually his head became dizzy, and he didn't know whether he was dreaming or waking up. He saw Xiaobai crawling over and onto his chest, and the snake letter kept touching him. Touching the scales on his chest, and trying to bite off a piece with his small mouth, he bled a little.

He thought that Xiaobai was going too far, he was sick, and still making trouble with him like this, when he woke up, he must be taught a lesson.

When he woke up, it was already time for evening self-study and get out of class, and he slept for a full five hours.

He heard the few people in the dormitory talking in low voices, probably knowing that he was resting on the bed, so contrary to the usual noise, he lowered his voice and whispered softly. Ali accidentally kicked the bucket and let out a sound. There was a relatively loud noise and was scolded by several other people.

Shi Xiaochuan heard what they were talking about about the game in the province, Shi Xiaochuan raised his dizzy head, and said, "What are you talking about?"

As soon as Shi Chen saw him wake up, he walked over with long legs, "How do you feel? I went to pick you up, but the teacher in the infirmary said you left by yourself. When I came back, I saw that you had been sleeping, and I didn't know How are you doing now?"

Shi Xiaochuan sat up slowly, supported his head, looked at Shi Chen with dark eyes, "I'm fine, I'm much better after sleeping. What did you just say?"

Seeing that he finally woke up, the thin and tall "Pig Liver" immediately said loudly: "That's what the teacher said today, there will be a 'Comprehensive Ability Competition for High School Students' in the province. You can still get extra points, hey, anyway, there are many benefits, and our school will send three people to participate."

Shi Xiaochuan nodded, expressing that he knew it. He was not very interested in this kind of competition. What is the effect of exercising one's own abilities.

The next day, during the lunch break, he and Shi Chen were called to the office by Teacher Shu Youcai, and there was a boy from the next class standing inside, "The school decided to send The three of you will participate, you should prepare for the competition in a few days, and you will go to Boya Middle School in the provincial capital to participate in the competition in a few days."

Shi Xiaochuan was a little hesitant. In the past, he could go or not go, but now, with such strange things growing on his body, if he gets along with people day and night, he will inevitably be seen by others. He doesn't want to be rumored again. What rumors, he really didn't want to repeat the previous life of being isolated from the people around him.

But like this kind of thing, there is no room for students to refuse.

Shu Youcai probably saw Shi Xiaochuan's hesitation. He adjusted his glasses and cleared his throat, "This time the team will be led by Teacher She Junhan, and all the expenses will be borne by the school. Just come back with a good ranking. I have great confidence in you. If you have any difficulties, tell the teacher. The teacher will try his best to solve it for you, so that you have no worries. We will also send someone to take care of your part-time jobs at school temporarily, and so on. When you come back, it will be handed over to you, ah, by the way, the prize money for this competition is very high, the first prize is 1 yuan! The second prize is also [-] yuan, and the school will give you some other rewards."

When Shi Xiaochuan heard the bonus amount, he immediately became dizzy, nodded, and agreed, 1 yuan!He can do a lot of things well, and he doesn't have to worry about his tuition and living expenses in the past few years. If he continues to work part-time in the school, the money can be saved as a fund for the university.

In the next few days, several teachers from the school gave the three of them a short-term training.

The boy in the class next door is a boy who looks frail and wears glasses. He has a good-looking face, fair and clean, upright, clear eyes, and the clothes belong to the kind of high-end brands that don't show off the mountains and show water. He is too reasonable, and keeps a straight face all day long, as if someone owed him a debt and didn't pay it back.

Shi Xiaochuan's only luck is that this boy's surname is not Shi, and he should not be a member of the Shi family.

Three days later, they packed their simple luggage and followed She Junhan to the train station.

She Junhan is still the same, except that his face is paler and more weak, nothing has changed. The baggy suit always feels like it has lost its weight when he puts it on, and the trousers are empty.

When he looked at people, he just glanced at them coldly from the corner of his eyes, which made people shudder, and he always acted involuntarily according to his will.

He introduced some situation of Boya to the three of them in a soft and almost inaudible voice.

In fact, he doesn't need to introduce him. As long as he is from this province, who hasn't heard of the name of Boya High School?

A well-known high school in the whole country, the pride of this province, everyone has sharpened their heads and wants to send their children to Boya. The rumor is that as long as they send their children to Boya, it is equivalent to one foot into a key university. school gate.

Where can such a good thing be found?Although the people in the town have been avoiding Shi Xiaochuan, they are not unenvious.

Shi Xiaochuan sat in the car and was a little dazed by the slight rhythmic shaking of the car. He leaned against the car and wanted to take a nap, but he felt a burst of movement in his trouser pocket.

He opened his eyes, the carriage was not full, Teacher She Junhan was not with them, and Lu Qingyun sat in the next seat by himself, only Shi Chen was sitting with him, at this moment, Shi Chen was holding a mobile phone I don't know what I'm looking at.

No one will notice him.

Shi Xiaochuan reached into his pocket, and took out the thing that disturbed his sleep, Xiaobai rubbed his head against his fingers with some grievances, and was put into his trouser pocket to suffocate, even a living thing could not bear it!He pinched Xiaobai's head and dangled it to his wrist. Xiaobai tactfully wrapped his wrist around his wrist and wrapped his body around twice. It looked like a bracelet with a special shape, but the bracelet was on his wrist. Move around slightly.

This time it was a long trip, Shi Xiaochuan didn't intend to take Xiaobai with him, but was stalked by him, he followed up every day, and his inseparable marking policy made him raise his hands and surrender. If this heater is gone, Xiaobai will definitely feel uncomfortable, so let's take it with him, as long as he is careful, it should be fine.

Before he left, he ran back to the town to visit the child during his lunch break, and the child was temporarily placed in the town's orphanage by the police station.

He saw a child standing alone in a corner of the yard, staring at the ground, not knowing what he was looking at, and beside him, children of all sizes were chasing and frolicking, having a great time. Occasionally, some children wanted to go over to him Talking was also dismissed by him with the invincible staring method. As time passed, no child dared to go over and talk to him.

Shi Xiaochuan sighed, walked slowly in front of him, and sat beside him, "I'm going out for a few days, I can't see you anymore, you have to be good, you know?"

The child seemed to be very dissatisfied with his behavior of throwing himself in the orphanage, and ignored what he said. At this time, the aunt of the orphanage came over, "Oh, I came to see him again, baby, yes Well, we named this baby Tianqiu, he was sent here by Qiu, haha."

Is it autumn?

It's a good name, Shi Xiaochuan touched his head, and called him in a low voice, "Tianqiu."

The child finally turned his head, pulled his hand down, and held it in his palm. He heard the child reply, "Xiaochuan, Shi Xiaochuan".
