Liaozhai Ghost Story

Chapter 50 Mr. Hai

The East China Sea historic island is uninhabited and rarely visited. There are five colors of winter-resistant flowers on the island, which bloom all year round and never wither.

Zhang Sheng, a native of Dengzhou, is curious by nature and likes hunting. On this day, he prepared his own wine and food. He drove a flat boat to the historic island to play. He only saw that the flowers on the island were flourishing, the fragrance floated for miles, and the giant trees were towering in the sky, and more than a dozen people could gather together. The surrounding scenery was pleasant, and I couldn't help but forget to return, so I opened the bottle to drink alone, and I hated that there were no companions. Suddenly, a woman came out of the flowers, wearing a red dress, which was gorgeous. Seeing Zhang Sheng's face, she smiled and said, "My concubine thinks she is very interested. I don't expect that the prince is also a fellow."

Zhang Sheng asked, "Who is the girl?"

The woman replied, "I'm a prostitute in Jiaodong, and I came here to play with Mr. Hai. The prince's search for a ghost has gone. I can't walk, so I stay here and wait.

Zhang Sheng was lonely and unbearable, so he invited the beauty to drink together. The wine was hot, and the two hugged each other and made out, and the woman did not resist.

I don't know how long it took. Suddenly, the wind was strong, and the vegetation broke and crackled. The woman changed her color and said, "Mr. Hai is back." Zhang Sheng panicked and put on his clothes and looked around. The woman was nowhere to be found. Suspiciously, a big snake with the thickness of a bucket crawled out of the bushes, with people and trees, entangling Zhang Sheng tightly and entangling him several times in a row.

The giant snake raised its head and pricked its nose with its tongue. The blood flowed across the ground and accumulated into a small pool. The giant snake lowered its head and licked the blood until it was trickled. Zhang Sheng's heart moved and thought, "The strange snake is greedy for blood, and there is a way to deal with it." He moved his fingers hard, reached into his waist, and picked out a bag of poison, which was used to deal with foxes when hunting. Zhang Sheng's fingertips pierced the poison package, and the powder overflowed, all piled up in the right palm.

Zhang Sheng turned his head and pointed the tip of his nose at the palm of his hand. The nosebleed dripped and gathered in the palm. The strange snake was excited to see the blood and immediately put out its tongue for a mess. Licking, poisonous blood entered the abdomen, rolling all over the ground in pain, breaking a big tree, then the toxicity spread, the body stood up twice, and then died.

Zhang escaped from life and death. He was so scared that he quickly drove a boat back to his hometown. After returning, he was very sick and recovered in a few months. He suspected in his heart that the woman and the snake spirit were basically the same kind.
