Chapter 2450: The Taoist Priest Is Here Again

Ning Shu had no experience in delivering newborn snakes and could only say, You probably are going to deliver soon.

Doctor Liu, Doctor Liu cried the aunt next door.

Ning Shu carried a Chinese cabbage out of the cellar and asked, Whats wrong, Auntie?

The Taoist priest is here again. The village head asked everyone to gather at the village entrance, said the aunt.

Ning Shu put down the cabbage and followed the villagers to the village entrance with Zhenzhen on her back.

The old Taoist priest still appeared sage-like. He asked the village head, Has no one seen the snake?

The village is very peaceful. I guess it has left, the village head said with uncertainty.

The old Taoist priest furrowed his brows. That shouldnt be, they had already forced the snake toward the village.

Why didnt it show up?

The old Taoist priest saw Ning Shu approaching from the corner of his eye. His eyelids twitched and he unconsciously puffed up his chest.

What is that smell on you? As soon as Ning Shu neared, the old Taoist priest smelled a fishy smell.

Ning Shu raised a hand and sniffed it. What smell are you talking about? Oh, last night, a snake wanted to eat my cow, so I beat it away.

Old Taoist:

Huh the surrounding villagers stared at Ning Shu in surprise.

You beat the snake away? the aunt next door asked in surprise. Why didnt I hear anything last night?

I know martial arts. Ning Shu raised an eyebrow at the old Taoist priest. The Taoist priest should know of this.

The old Taoist priest almost rolled his eyes.

Where did the snake go? he asked.

Ning Shu shook her head. I dont know. Maybe it went to your Taoist temple.

The aunt next door asked Ning Shu, Doctor Liu, if you know martial arts, how did your husband get killed by bandits?

The old Taoist priest also looked at Ning Shu.

Ning Shu said calmly, When I found my husband, he was already rotting.

Old Taoist:

The old Taoist priest took his people back to White Cloud Temple and repeatedly told the villagers that they should inform them immediately if they encountered the snake, or it wouldnt be their problem if they got swallowed by the snake.

After the old Taoist priest left, Ning Shu and the group of people also went back. One after another, they asked Ning Shu if she had seen the snakes appearance.

Ning Shu just said it was too dark at the time and she hadnt seen it clearly.

Ning Shu walked back to her house and heard movement in the bas.e.m.e.nt. She immediately went down.

She saw the snake tossing and turning on the ground and she seemed to be in great pain.

It looked like she was going to give birth.

Ning Shu went out to find some dry gra.s.s and put it in the cellar.

Keep your voice down. Are you trying to attract people here?

Im in pain.

How painful can it be to lay an egg? Snakes have two p.e.n.i.ses. Does it also hurt when youre mating? Ning Shu said.

The snake was in pain for a long time before finally releasing an egg the size of a fist. After the first one was laid, the later ones were much smoother.

The snake laid three eggs. Her head lay on the ground. All her energy had been spent.

Ning Shu looked at the eggs and really wanted to make stewed eggs. She guessed that the eggs would be fishy though, so Ning Shu gave up.

Ning Shu placed the snake eggs on the dry gra.s.s. When will these eggs hatch? If the villagers knew that there was a snake hiding in my house, Id be driven out.

In regards to dangerous things, they should be removed.

I need some time, said the snake.

Ning Shu:

She had known this was going to be a problem.

When you get better, take your eggs in your mouth and go. Or else, the people at White Cloud Temple will find you, Ning Shu was not in a good mood. She went out of the bas.e.m.e.nt to get a chicken for the snake.

She didnt even pluck the feathers.

The snake swallowed the chicken and said, Ill rest for another day and then I can go.
