Qin Shaochen quickly got up, poked his head out of the water, and took a few deep breaths.

But he soon felt that his action was a bit redundant.

Because just now, he didn't feel suffocated at all, and his deep breaths didn't work. Instead, his face was burning again.

He quickly submerged his head in the water again.

His mind was confused, and he simply sat on the rocks at the bottom of the water.

It soon became clear that he really didn't feel any discomfort from holding his breath. Sitting in the water was like sitting in the air.

What the hell happened?

Even at the bottom of the water, Qin Shaochen was still full of doubts.

He was not a fish, so why didn't he need to breathe?

But he really didn't breathe! But he was fine in the water!

Why didn't he feel suffocated? Logically speaking, he had been in the water for quite a long time, and he should have been unable to bear it long ago!

No matter how good a person is at swimming, he wouldn't sit there like this without any hesitation!

Not that he was not without any hesitation, his whole body was still aching!

After a long while, he calmed down and observed his body silently.

Then he gradually realized that he was still breathing.

It's just that he was not breathing with his mouth, but with the cracks under his skin... to absorb and swallow!

Although he couldn't see those tiny cracks, he could feel that there were cracks everywhere on his arms, thighs, torso, as if there were countless pores opening and closing.

"What's going on? Why do strange things happen when I encounter the Thunder Crystal Flower!"

"No, there is also the Golden Demon Snake, maybe it is the culprit. What kind of monsters are these two things? They make me so weird!"

Qin Shaochen thought about it, but gradually became a little excited.

Although there were many strange things happening to him, there was no harm. Instead, they were all good things, so good... that people couldn't believe it!

I can actually breathe with my skin, it's incredible!

Then he has become a fish now!

A fish in human skin!

"Haha! The small fish and shrimp in Jinbian Creek are in trouble now. If I can stay in the water for a long time without breathing, I will become... the king of monsters in the water."

Qin Shaochen couldn't help but smile at the bottom of the water.

"Qin Shaochen!"

"Xiaochen!"

Many people on the shore called anxiously. It turned out that Qin Xiaoluo called a few neighbors over. Uncle Liu across the street was holding a long bamboo pole in his hand.

Could it be that he wanted to fish himself out of the river?

Qin Shaochen was a little amused and could only float out of the water and shouted: "I'm here, I'm fine! I'm really fine! Wait for me a little longer, I'm poisoned, I have to stay in the water for a while!"

The neighbors and Qin Xiaoluo looked at each other. They all saw clearly that Qin Shaochen looked a little embarrassed when he emerged from the water.

But he was still smiling when he spoke!

What kind of poison was he poisoned by?

But it's always good to be able to laugh, and Qin Xiaoluo was relieved. Seeing Qin Shaochen submerged again, he could only wait on the shore.

Several neighbors simply retreated to the eaves of a house on the shore to take shelter from the rain.

They also saw that Qin Shaochen didn't seem to be in any danger, but they couldn't help but wonder what the boy was going crazy about?

But this wait lasted nearly half an hour.

Fortunately, Qin Shaochen emerged from the water from time to time and shouted "I'm fine!" Everyone didn't panic, but just kept comforting Qin Xiaoluo who was always in doubt.

With a "splash", Qin Shaochen emerged from the river again, and then staggered to the shore step by step.

As he walked, he said, "Okay, okay! It's impossible to burn. The fire poison is finally extinguished!"

He still felt pain in his body. But the burning feeling had almost disappeared, and it was obviously no longer a problem.

"Brother, what on earth are you doing? Why did you jump into the stream as soon as you came back without even saying anything?"

"Ah!" Qin Shaochen sighed, "I was bitten by a poisonous snake. I was probably poisoned by fire, so I had to use cold water to remove the poison."

Then he asked Qin Xiaoluo: "Where is the jade box I gave you?"

"Here!"

Qin Xiaoluo took out the jade box.

"What poisonous snake? You were bitten there. Are you okay now?"

Uncle Liu asked curiously: "Can river water detoxify? Are you lying to Xiaoluo again?"

Qin Shaochen took the jade box and put it in his arms.

"Thank you for your concern, thank you all the neighbors, thank you Uncle Liu, thank you Aunt Zhang, I'm fine now, please go back!"

He said to Qin Xiaoluo again: "Let's go back first! I have to go back and change into clean clothes, and then go to Pharmacist Zhou to exchange the medicine."

"Brother, are you saying that the box contains thunder crystal flowers? Did you really pick them?"

Qin Shaochen nodded, and while walking, he told the general process half-truthfully.

Of course, he didn't mention the changes in his body.

He didn't understand it himself, so how could he explain it to his younger sister.

At the door of his house, Qin Shaochen thanked the neighbors again before returning to the house.

He changed his clothes first, and when he saw the golden snake falling from his arms, he thought about it and picked it up carefully.

Then he checked his body again. He was relieved to make sure that the burning pain had disappeared.

To be honest, he himself couldn't believe that he could survive after being bitten by the Golden Demon Snake.

Pharmacist Zhou said that the Golden Demon Snake was the most poisonous creature in Leiheng Mountain! Even a tiger would die if bitten by it!

How did he escape?

He shook his head and didn't want to think about these questions anymore.

He looked at the Golden Demon Snake placed aside, and after a little hesitation, he found another old wooden box and put the golden snake in it.

This time, he dared not put the Golden Demon Snake into the jade box.

"Last time, Pharmacist Zhou praised this little snake so much. I think he would be interested in it! Give it to him, and it will probably be exchanged for some silver!"

After putting away the wooden box, he walked out and saw his little sister carefully admiring the thunder flower in the jade box.

Seeing Qin Shaochen coming out, Qin Xiaoluo immediately closed the box.

"So this is the thunder flower! This flower is so magical and beautiful, so beautiful that people can't believe it is real!"

"This one is not very good. The one I saw last time was beautiful, and it was three times bigger than this one."

After a pause, he said, "I hope that Pharmacist Zhou will not think this one is too small."

Put the jade box in his arms.

Then he walked out of the courtyard and went straight to Zhouji Pharmacy.
