Chapter 17: Murderous Intent

  Another policeman said: "Hey, you think this snake might have gone back last night?"

  Xiao Huang shook his head and said, "This shouldn't be possible. This morning when I saw the couple coming down to buy vegetables, they still looked worried and anxious! So they must have been worried about that snake!"

  "Hum!" However, at this moment, a black sedan drove over and stopped in front of them.

  Two people walked down from upstairs, one was the driver, and the other was dressed in a suit and tie, looking handsome and extraordinary, around thirty years old, seemed somewhat familiar, but I immediately remembered that he looked like Xing Yongding, no mistake, although only three points similar, but I won't be wrong.

  Their subsequent conversation confirmed my guess, at this time those police officers saw him coming and immediately went up to greet him. Little Huang said with a slightly respectful tone: "Young Master Xing, you've arrived!"

  As soon as I heard it, it was indeed a member of the Xing family. In that case, he should be Xing Yongding's older brother. He must have come for his younger brother's matter.

  Xing Dasao glanced at him faintly and said, "Hmm! Hasn't that snake been caught yet?"

  Xiao Huang smiled and said: "Young master, we are guarding it now, but it really hasn't come back yet!"

  Xing Dasao took a look at our neighborhood and asked: "You should know which building the Qis live in, right?"

  Xiao Huang nodded immediately: "I know, Young Master is going to find them?"

  Xing Da nodded slightly: "Not bad, I heard that the snake that bit my brother to death was raised by them, right? So do you think I should go talk to them?"

  "Alright then, I'll take Young Master Xing upstairs!" Little Huang said, and then prepared to lead the way.

  He turned around and said to the other two policemen, "You stay here first, I'll take Xiaoshao upstairs to find Mr. and Mrs. Ji. If there's anything, you call me, got it?"

  The two policemen nodded and said: "Uh-huh, okay!"

  I saw them going up to find my parents, so I said to the black snake beside me: "Little Hei, I'm going up to see my father... uh, to see the kind people who took me in before. I'm afraid these people will trouble them, do you want to go?"

  But the black-backed snake retorted, "Brother, don't call me Xiao Hei, my greatest regret in this life is being born black, so I gave myself a name, Xiao Bai, hoping to become whiter."

  After listening, I was speechless for a moment. But now there's no time to argue with him either. I nodded and said, "Alright, Xiao Bai, do you want to go up?"

  Xiaobai said: "Go on, since your benefactor is in trouble, I must go and help, let's go!"

  "Good!" After that, I quietly climbed up from the back window and slipped back into my room, hiding with Xiaobai behind the bedroom door.

  At that time, my parents were talking in the living room when the door was suddenly knocked on. My father got up to open it, but when he opened the door and saw a stranger and a policeman, his brow furrowed.

  Because Xiao Huang was familiar with him and had even come to catch me last time, so my father didn't welcome him very much. He said coldly: "What's the matter?"

  Xiao Huang ignored my father's indifference and said: "This is the young master of the Xing family, he has some business with you!"

  After hearing Xiaohuang's words, my father took a look at Xing Dasao and saw that this person was not a police officer, but rather gave off an air of wealth and nobility, and should not be on the same side as these police officers.

  So my father's expression eased a bit and he asked: "Excuse me, sir, what brings you to our humble abode?"

  Xing Dashao smiled slightly, then didn't wait for my father to invite him in, but instead walked in himself and sat down on our sofa, saying: "I'll just say it straight out! My younger brother was bitten to death by a venomous snake, and I heard that your family is raising a venomous snake, so I want to take a look at that snake!"

  My parents were both stunned at the same time, and my father asked: "Sir, I think you may have misunderstood? There are many snake breeders around here, what makes you suspect that it's ours? Besides, our snake has already gone out and hasn't come back yet!"

  Xing Dasao hadn't spoken yet, but Little Huang beside him said: "Wouldn't the young master wrongly accuse you? Since you said that snake has already left, I think it must have gone to bite Second Master to death, so he doesn't dare come home?"

  "So tell me, it had no grudge against your Second Master, why did it go and bite him to death?" my father asked back.

  However, at this question, Xiao Huang suddenly couldn't say anything. Was he going to tell his parents that the second young master of the Xing family was the murderer who killed their son, so this snake went to avenge him?

  At this time, Xing Dasao said: "Two, make a price, I'll buy that snake!"

  "Haha! Xing Jia's young master is really generous, but we old couple can't accept your kindness. Firstly, even if that snake was still here, we wouldn't be able to sell it to you. Secondly, it hasn't come back now, and we don't know where it went!" My father sneered at him.

  "Since you put it that way, forget it then. Let's go!" Seeing that my father didn't respond, Xing Dasao called out to Xiao Huang to leave.

  But just now, in the moment he stood up, I seemed to see a thread of murderous intent in his eyes, although it was well hidden, but I believe I absolutely didn't missee.

  Since I shed my skin this time, my vision and sensitivity have increased a lot. Just now, although I was hiding behind the bedroom door, I saw his expression clearly through the gap in the door.

  "Hey, they've all left, and your benefactor is fine too. Let's go!" Little White said to me as they walked away.

  "I said: 'Can't leave yet, trouble hasn't passed yet!'"

  "Why?" Xiaobai asked me in puzzlement.

  I didn't give it an explanation, I just said: "You wait and see!"

  I don't know when they will come, but I believe that Xing Dasao will definitely send someone over because he must know that the one who bit his brother to death is this snake, me. After all, last time he sent people to ask my parents for their license plate number, his men were also bitten by me, so thinking about it, I'm afraid I'm involved in this matter.

  They also thought I was a snake raised by my parents, so all of this, they blamed on my parents' head, but they didn't think that it was their family's Xing Yongding who intentionally harmed me to death, isn't one life for one life unfair?

  Yes, in their eyes, even if I die a hundred times, it's not worth the life of one of their family members. In their view, we ordinary people are as insignificant as grass, and once we're dead, that's it.

  So in their minds, it's not about what's fair or unfair, but that the snake that bit Xing Yongding to death was raised by my parents. Not only do they want to kill the snake, but also implicate my parents.

  In their eyes, they are the law. Thinking of this, a murderous intention also rose in my heart. Since you dare to move against my parents, I don't care who you are, you all deserve to die. Because in my eyes, it's the same, the law is useless to me.

  Suddenly, Xiao Bai beside me retreated while saying: "What's wrong with you? How did the aura on your body become so terrifying?"

  I was taken aback and then put away the murderous intent, apologetically saying: "Sorry about that, I just thought of something that made me very angry, so I scared you."

  I didn't expect the killing intent on me to be so strong, and even Xiao Bai sensed it. At this time, Xiao Bai said: "What's wrong with you? Is there something unhappy that made you so angry?"

  I didn't answer, but shook my head and said: "Xiaobai, it might be dangerous later, why don't you go down and hide first? After I've dealt with things here, I'll come find you again."

  "Brother, what are you talking about? You think I'm some kind of snake? When you're in danger, how could I possibly leave? Since I've recognized you as the boss, even if it means death, I'll follow you!" Who knew that my words would provoke such a strong reaction from Xiao Bai.

  But hearing it say that, I felt a warmth in my heart, and it seems to be true that snakes do value the relationships between each other. I was moved to say: "Xiao Bai, thank you!"

  "It's okay, nothing's wrong!" Xiaobai said with a flick of his head.

  However, we waited in the room until nightfall, and finally, my home door was knocked on. Instantly, I shrunk all over, immediately opening a gap in the bedroom door with my head, entering an attacking state. As long as they made a move, I would rush up to take their lives at any time.

  The door was finally opened by my father, and four people rushed in all at once. They were all robust and sturdy, and it was clear that they were martial artists.

  They saw my father open the door and before he could react, they rushed in at once, locked the door back, and my father was startled, asking: "Who are you?"

  One of them said: "Ask you for the last time, where is that snake?"

  "I didn't see anything!" My father said with a forced tone, although he was scared. Of course, at this moment, he also understood that these people were here to find me again.

  "Hah! That's it then, you're going to die!" The man suddenly revealed a murderous intent, and the four of them pulled out daggers from their waists and stabbed at my father.

  "Whoosh!" I, already in attack mode, didn't hesitate for a second and darted towards the man like lightning, sinking my teeth into his neck and injecting a thread of venom.

  No, I did have the intention to kill him, because it's not my fault, they were the ones who wanted to take action and kill my parents. Other things might be tolerable, but this matter obviously touched my reverse scales, so I had no choice but to kill him.

  Just as I had just bitten to death the person who was about to attack my father, Xiao Bai suddenly darted out and pounced on the person closest to it.

  Their target was my parents, so I didn't expect two snakes to pop out of the room. After instantly taking care of that person, I just turned around and pounced on another one, when suddenly a chill ran through my whole body, I got scared and quickly dodged to the side.
