"When are you going? When are you coming back?" Fanny asked urgently.
"It's not a short time," Chen Zhao said. "Fanny, if you need acupuncture now, I can do it for you first."
"Fanny, since Mr. Chen said so, don't rush."
"I just want to know the exact time."
"Mr. Chen, can we stay here tonight?"
"Yes, please."
After receiving the acupuncture, Fanny felt the pain in her palm lessen greatly.
It was no longer as painful as before.
However, Chen Zhao could only relieve the pain temporarily.
At night, Fanny woke up from the pain again.
Fanny went downstairs to find water. Suddenly, she heard a whistling sound.
The moment she turned her head, she saw a huge creature pass by the front yard at an extremely fast speed.
It was extremely huge. Its back alone was taller than the first floor.
She couldn't see what it was at all.
The creature was also too fast. It disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye.
Fanny was confused. She actually didn't feel fear.
Instead, she walked out of the house and into the front yard.
Fanny looked to her left and right. There was only the lake on her left. There seemed to be nothing.
Further away was the waterfall. Fanny kept staring at it.
She seemed to see light in the waterfall.
Fanny walked toward the waterfall in a trance.
The waterfall didn't flow much, but the rocks under it were a bit slippery.
Fanny finally steadied herself. She saw more than one light spot in the darkness of the cave inside the waterfall.
Something seemed to be watching her in the darkness.
At the moment, Fanny couldn't tell if it was a dream or reality.
Maybe it was just a dream.
"Hello?"
Just then, a snake head popped out of the cave.
Big! Very big!
One of the light spots belonged to the snake head. There were other spots in the depths of the cave.
There was a sharp bone spur on the snake head. The skin on its head was slightly red. It spat out a bright red snake head and slowly approached Fanny.
Fanny completely treated this as a dream.
She reached out her right hand and slowly approached the snake head.
The snake head licked Fanny's palm and then slowly opened its mouth.
This should be a terrifying scene, but Fanny wasn't scared at all.
Maybe it was because it was a dream.
She did not feel the snake's malice.
The snake head began to inhale, as if something was being sucked out of Fanny's palm.
What was being sucked out was green gas.
It was very comfortable, very much like the feeling when applying ointment.
A cool and refreshing feeling.
After sucking a few more times, the snake head licked Fanny's palm.
Suddenly, Fanny heard a voice by her ear.
"Go to sleep, go to sleep."
…
"Mr. Chen, is Fanny still awake?" When Kyla went downstairs, she saw Chen Zhao sitting alone in the dining room.
"No, let her sleep a little longer."
Kyla waited for two hours, but Fanny didn't get up.
Pushing open the door to Fanny's room, he found her still sound asleep.
"Strange, is it really that easy to sleep? You're sleeping so soundly. "
Just then, Fanny woke up.
"Kyla, why are you in my room?"
"Fanny, aren't you as picky as me in bed? Why are you sleeping so soundly? "
"I don't know … I had a strange dream last night."
"Alright, I'm not interested in what you're dreaming about. Get up and wash up."
"Huh?" When Fanny got up, she realized that her palm didn't hurt at all. Moreover, the burn seemed to have healed a lot.
"What's wrong?" Kyla asked.
Sticky? Fanny touched her left hand.
It seemed to be covered in a layer of sticky substance.
That's weird. What is it?
"Do you feel uncomfortable somewhere? Do you want me to call Mr. Chen? "
"No, I don't feel uncomfortable."
Fanny went downstairs, still confused about the substance on her left hand.
"Fanny, what are you studying? Is there something on your left hand? "
"Kyla, is there a big snake in Mr. Chen's house?"
"Big snake? Yeah, haven't you seen Raymond? "
"Raymond? Where? "Fanny hadn't seen Raymond before.
"Here, it's under that bonsai."
"Wow … So big … Poisonous snake."
Fanny was shocked at first, but then she calmed down.
"No, it's not it."
"What's not it?"
"I dreamt of a big snake last night. It's in the cave under the waterfall."
"You went under the waterfall last night? It's very dangerous. It's too slippery. "
"No, it's just a dream."
After breakfast, Fanny was about to put on her shoes when she realized that her feet were black.
"Huh?" Fanny raised an eyebrow.
"Fanny, are you done? We should go back. "
Fanny suddenly dashed out of the room barefooted.
"Fanny … Where are you going?"
Kyla chased after Fanny. Fanny ran to the front yard and then to the waterfall.
"Fanny, come back. It's dangerous there. Don't slip."
Fanny was still unmoved. She didn't care about the water splashing on her.
"Are you there? Hi … Are you there? Mr. … Snake. "
Just then, Chen Zhao walked over.
Seeing him, Kyla immediately said, "Mr. Chen, do you know what's going on? Why is Fanny reacting like this? "
"No." Chen Zhao shook his head.
Strange. Did I expose myself?
Fanny ran into the cave. It wasn't deep, only five or six meters deep.
Other than some potholes and puddles, there was nothing.
"Nothing? How can there be nothing? Why not? "Fanny's face was filled with confusion. It couldn't be nothing. Why?
Fanny ran out of the cave again and came to Chen Zhao and Kyla.
She pulled Chen Zhao and asked, "You know, right? Mr. Chen? "
"What? What are you talking about? "
"That snake. Where is it?"
"What snake? Did you say Raymond? "
"No, it's a really big snake, even bigger than me … Maybe about the same size as me. It has this long horn on its head."
Chen Zhao looked back at Kyla and whispered, "Kyla, are you sure Miss Fanny is okay?"
"I'm not sick. Don't think that there's something wrong with my head. I'm very clear." Fanny was like a crazy kitten. "I know what I'm talking about. I just realized that my feet are black."
"Oh … You were walking around the room barefoot before," Kyla said.
"No, I'm sure that there's moss on my feet. Look, it looks like this." Afraid that she wouldn't understand, Fanny even raised her feet. "I wasn't dreaming last night. I really came here and found a snake. A really, really big snake."
