Chapter 219: Living Corpse, Sister-in-law, Help
Feng Yuanlin was also curious about what on earth these white pills were; the more he looked at them, the more familiar they seemed, but he couldn’t think why.
Chi Shuyan told the others not to get too close, and set up an array at the same time so that the corpse bugs couldn’t leave the table.
Qi Hao and the boys watched curiously as their sister-in-law opened the bottle cap. When she did, they saw white pills.
The boys were puzzled. Why was Sister-in-law showing them this?
Feng Yuanlin opened his eyes wide, but couldn’t see anything wrong. Only Qi Zhenbai and Chi Shuyan stared solemnly at the white pills.
Qi Zhenbai had no doubt that these things were related to corpse bugs. He recalled that there was an illusionary trick. What if someone deliberately used this trick to turn these corpse bugs into pills so that people would willingly consume them?
The others couldn’t see clearly because of this trick, but Chi Shuyan could. To the others, they looked like white pills, but to her, they looked like squirming corpse bugs. It was a ghastly sight.
She normally hated squirming soft-bodied creatures, and she almost felt sick seeing them now.
Lu Chengfu, w.a.n.g Xuewen, and Qi Hao couldn’t help but itch to pick one up, but Chi Shuyan quickly stopped them. A warning flashed in her eyes. “How dare you touch something without clearly confirming what it is?”
Lu Chengfu, w.a.n.g Xuewen, Qi Hao, and Jian Chongying didn’t think much of it.
w.a.n.g Xuewen chuckled and couldn’t help but say, “Sister-in-law, we just can’t see clearly, so we want to take them out and take a closer look. If these white pills aren’t medicine, what are they? How are they good stuff?”
Feng Yuanlin also couldn’t help but ask, “What on earth is this pill?”
Lu Chengfu hadn’t thought much of it earlier, but when he saw the pill, he suddenly remembered that Yang Xiaoxiao, Yang Mingwei’s girlfriend, had been taking “whitening pills.” Lu Chengfu’s face changed and he reacted quickly. “Sister-in-law, is this the whitening pill that Yang Mingwei’s girlfriend was taking?”
“You’re finally smart for once!” Chi Shuyan gave Lu Chengfu an approving look.
Lu Chengfu looked embarra.s.sed.
The faces of Qi Hao and the others changed when they heard this, but they couldn’t figure out how this whitening pill could turn people into monsters.
“Sister-in-law, isn’t this just a white pill? What’s the difference between this and ordinary medicine?”
“Yeah! Just looking at it won’t work. Sister-in-law, how about you pour some into our hands for a look?”
Qi Zhenbai was helpless when he looked at these brats who didn’t know the difference between life and death. It was good that his wife had these brats come today to take a look, to stop them from being so carefree and unwary all the time.
Chi Shuyan looked at Feng Yuanlin, who was also frowning and looking a little impatient, and said, “Okay, I’ll let you guys take a look at this good stuff. When you see it later, you can decide again if you want to touch it or not.”
Soon, Chi Shuyan placed the bottle in the small array she had set up and cast a spell on the mouth of the bottle. The whitening pills instantly turned into squirming corpse bugs. A single corpse bug was already terrifying, let alone a huge pile of them. Because Chi Shuyan cast a small spell on the mouth of the bottle, the corpse bugs couldn’t crawl out.
However, in order to give the boys a warning, she immediately withdrew her spell. Soon, the pile of corpse bugs scrambled out of the bottle and immediately filled the entire table.
Feng Yuanlin’s face changed in fright when he saw the large white pills turn into corpse bugs.
Qi Zhenbai, who was prepared, also had a very gloomy expression. The thing he hated the most was squirming bugs, especially these bugs that were found on living corpses.
The faces of the brats who initially wanted to take a good look immediately changed. Their faces were deathly pale, and w.a.n.g Xuewen and Qi Hao were so scared that they cursed out loud. The faces of Jian Chongying and Lu Chengfu, who had been mentally prepared, also changed at that moment. Fearing that the corpse bugs would crawl over them, they screamed and ran.
“Sister-in-law, help!”
