Lu Yiming was in his own small room.

He sat on the bed, sorting out the news he had received from his grandfather, as well as some information from Ling Xi, who had turned into a salty fish.

Ling Xi said that the snake chose to marry Xu Zitan in order to repay his life-saving grace in the past.

Grandpa also said that when Xu Zitan was 10 years old, he once rescued a big python.

Good guy, the White Snake really repays the favor, the protagonist is still named Xu.

The birth of another reckless hero.

But I don’t seem qualified to say anything about Xu Zitan...

Regarding the story between the snake demon and Xu Zitan, the timeline can probably be sorted out like this.

In 2012, when Xu Zitan was 10 years old, he accidentally saved the white snake that failed to transform.

In 2016, Xu Zitan was 14 years old and was dying of leukemia. In the same year, thanks to the practice of a certain master, Xu Zitan's leukemia was inexplicably cured.

From 2020 to 2025, Bai Qianqian moved into the Xu family and became Xu Zitan's wife.

Just looking at this timeline, you might think it is a very heartwarming story about a rescued snake demon who turns into a beauty to repay her benefactor.

But what he saw today had already made it clear to Lu Yiming that something was wrong with both Xu Zitan and the snake demon.

Lu Yiming looked at Ling Xi who was sitting at the desk playing with her mobile phone, "Senior Xianyu, can you give me a hint?"

This person definitely knows more than she does, but she insists on being a salty fish, and there is nothing she can do about it.

"Who are you calling Xianyu?"

Ling Xi put down her phone, stretched her hands upward, and lazily stretched her slender waist, "I only know that much, and I've already told you, but there is one thing I can remind you, the demon clan's

Once the transformation fails, less than 10 years is generally not enough time to re-transform."

"If that snake demon really failed to transform in 12 years, her current physical condition should be fishy."

"I don't quite understand what you are talking about."

The little fox suggested: "Sir, why don't Lili go and pull out the white snake, and we can ask her directly? If she doesn't tell the truth, we'll beat her until she speaks."

"What a bad idea you have."

Ling Xi rolled her eyes at the little fox, "Fox, half of your head is for food, and the other half is Lu Yiming, right?"

"is that so?"

The little fox blinked cutely, "Lili obviously only thinks about the young master, it doesn't matter what the other half eats~"

"Lili's plan is on hold for now. It hasn't reached this level yet. I'll call that master first and ask."

If that master had real information, he might know some inside story.

Lu Yiming took out a piece of yellowed paper and dialed the number left on it.

About half a minute later, after a beep, someone answered the call.

"Um...who?"

There was a tired male voice, and he was breathless when he spoke.

Fuck, what is this master doing now?

Lu Yiming bit the bullet and asked:

[Hello, are you Master Ye Zhiqiu?]

[I’m Ye Zhiqiu, oh, it’s comfortable, the location is right...what can you do?]

[I want to ask you something.]

[Ah, I want to ask something, okay, you can set a time, we will meet offline, but I have an appointment tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.]

[Where are you? Can I come over now?]

[Now? What exactly do you want to ask? Where are you?]

The voice over there was a little suspicious.

[That is, some questions that you know, because it is urgent and the price is easy to negotiate.]

[Okay, that's okay. I'm in Hong Town, City T. Can you come over? Remember to bring at least 20,000 yuan in cash.]

[T City...]

Lu Yiming frowned, why did this master run so far?

Weren't you still in City C some time ago?

Originally, I wanted to find out his address and bring Xianyuniao and Little Fox up to block the door at night.

[I am here in City C and cannot go to City T for the time being. Master Ye Zhiqiu, since the distance is so far, can I ask you some questions on the phone? Of course I will be paid.]

Unexpectedly, when the master opposite heard about City C, his voice immediately became nervous.

[City C? Are you from Xifeng Village?]

Lu Yiming was shocked. He guessed it directly. Is this person really capable?

When Lu Yiming didn't reply, it seemed that he was sure of Lu Yiming's identity.

"Grandmaster?"

Toot toot—

The other person hung up the phone directly...

Lu Yiming was stunned for a moment, what the hell.

When I called again, the voice prompt could not be connected.

Probably got blocked.

"Lili, lend me your cell phone."

"oh."

Lu Yiming took the little fox's phone, but when the screen lit up, he saw a row of search records in the Qiandu search bar.

[100 ways to make men addicted to themselves]

[What should a man do if he cheats?]

[The correct way to use a hatchet]

...

Lu Yiming almost suffered a cardiac arrest. What has the little fox been watching recently?

He lowered his head and met the little fox's watery red eyes.

The girl smiled cutely and asked gently: "Sir, why did your face suddenly become a little ugly?"

"nothing."

Lu Yiming touched the little fox's head with a complicated expression.

It’s not necessarily that the little fox specifically searched for it. Qiandu has smart recommendations, and the girl may have just clicked in accidentally.

He used the little fox's cell phone to dial the number again.

This time, the phone on the other end was still switched off.

Ling Xi looked over and said, "The phone can't be reached?"

"I can't get through, and I don't know if this master is a liar."

Lu Yiming stood up and came to the window, opened the screen, stuck his head out and looked up and to the left.

Xu Zitan's room is still bright.

He felt a little uneasy.

What to do next?

It's 8 o'clock in the evening now.

Lu Yiming thought for a while and decided to go directly to the next door to see the situation.

As a neighbor, it's not normal to visit, and he's also the best man tomorrow.

But what he didn't expect was that after he knocked on the door and told him his intention, Aunt Wang politely invited Lu Yiming and the others in, invited him to drink tea in the living room, and told him about being the best man tomorrow.

Things to pay attention to.

After talking about it for about an hour, Xu Zitan was stunned and didn't go downstairs.

The little fox had eaten a bunch of melon seed shells in front of him.

Aunt Wang went upstairs to take another look, and then told them that Zitan was already sleeping deeply and could not be woken up no matter how hard she screamed. It was better not to disturb her today.

Lu Yiming asked: "What about my sister-in-law?"

"Qianqian, she is accompanying Zitan, and she said she doesn't want to go downstairs at night."
