Tang Mingyue’s left-hand finger hurts. She seems to feel something is crawling on her arm, and it looks like an insect.

Tang Mingyue subconsciously grabbed the “thing” with her right hand, then quickly threw it to the ground. She then turned on the light without even wearing her slippers then looked at the ground. There was a centipede which about ten centimeters length on the ground.

She remembered that she just touched that “thing” in the dark. Her body was trembling as she feels all her hairs were about to stand up. When Tang Mingyue figured what she just had caught was a centipede, and she was bitten by a centipede, she yelled and quickly opened the door to let Xiao Zifeng in.

“Ah..”

Xiao Zifeng, who was wearing pyjamas anxiously asked Tang Mingyue, “Xifu, what’s wrong with you, Xifu?”

Tang Mingyue immediately pointed to the centipede that was still crawling on the ground, “There is a centipede, beat it to death! Beat it to death!”

When Xiao Zifeng saw the centipede on the ground, he quickly grabbed Tang Mingyue’s slippers and hit the centipede.

There was no fear on his face when Tang Mingyue saw the vigorous centipede just now was hit flat by the slippers, and the centipede’s being squashed on the ground.

Afterwards, Xiao Zifeng straightened up and put Tang Mingyue’s slippers back to its original place, “Xifu, don’t be afraid, that centipede has been beaten to death by me.”

Tang Mingyue’s body was still trembling. She still feels goosebumps all over her body. She looks at the little finger of her left hand that has swollen a little. There is a tiny hole in the finger that has been bitten by the centipede. “I was bitten by the centipede just now, and now my finger hurts.”

Xiao Zifeng immediately grabbed her left hand and looked at it, “Ah, Xifu, your finger is already swollen damn centipede!”

Tang Mingyue was very anxious, “What should I do then? Centipede seems to be poisonous, will I die because of poisoning?”

Although she had seen a centipede before, she had never been bitten by a centipede, but she knew that the centipede was poisonous, but she didn’t know how to deal with it.

Xiao Zifeng comforted Tang Mingyue, “It’s okay, Xifu, don’t worry, the poison of this rural centipede generally do not have any poison effect. I have been bitten before, and it only hurts for a few days.”

“You have been bitten before? How did you deal with it then?”

“I didn’t care about it at the time.”

“Huh?” Tang Mingyue looked surprised, “You don’t do anything? How can it work?”

“Xifu, don’t worry, of course, I will help you.” Xiao Zifeng helped Tang Mingyue sit down on the bed, “Xifu, sit down first, I have a solution.”

After speaking, he walked outside the door.

“Where are you going?” Tang Mingyue asked him.

Xiao Zifeng stopped at the bedroom door and turned around, “Xifu, sit on the bed and wait for a while, I will find something to help you deal with it now.”

“Oh, then you hurry up.”

Xiao Zifeng nodded, “Well, I’ll be here soon.”

After speaking, he left.

……

After a while, Xiao Zifeng happily came in, “Xifu, I’m here.”

Tang Mingyue raised her eyes to look at him. She was immediately shocked when she saw it what is in Xiao Zifeng hand.

Xiao Zifeng’s right hand was holding a big black spider. The spider was hairy, and it is alive while its feet were still moving when Xiao Zifeng was holding its body with his hand.

“Ah…” Tang Mingyue yelled again and hurried to crawl far away from Xiao Zifeng and stared at Xiao Zifeng with a guard, “Xiao Zifeng, what are you doing? What do you want to do by catching a spider?”

Xiao Zifeng must have caught the spiders in the house. Xiao Zifeng killed two of them in the morning and killed a few more when cleaning the house. They cleaned every corner of the house. Why are there still spiders? By the way, there are centipedes.

Xiao Zifeng grabbed the spider and approached the bed, “Xifu, don’t be afraid, I caught it to treat your wounds.”

This is obviously to scare her.

“I’m dealing with your head, are you crazy? I don’t want it, you hurry up and stay away from me.” Tang Mingyue kicked forward with her foot to prevent Xiao Zifeng from getting close to her.

“It’s okay, Xifu, spiders don’t bite people. Didn’t you get bitten by a centipede? I caught it to give you drugs. This is a rural method, and it works.” Xiao Zifeng raised his hand that was grabbing the big spider forward.

“Ah…” Tang Mingyue was frightened, “Xiao Zifeng, don’t come here, I don’t want it, I don’t believe in some rural local methods, I only believe in science, you hurry away and stay away from me.”

She has a university education, and many of the rural methods are unreliable.

Xiao Zifeng must be crazy, his brain is broken, wasn’t he still afraid of spiders before, how come he dare to catch spiders with bare hands now?

“Xifu, don’t be afraid, you see, it’s okay if I grab it with my hands. It doesn’t bite. You can take a closer look. Isn’t it quite cute, with a round belly, a round head and long hair? There are also a few small paws, how cute!” Xiao Zifeng grabbed the big spider and dangled in front of Tang Mingyue.

“Lovely your head, you quickly take it away, don’t come close to me, it’s disgusting.” Tang Mingyue was scared and disgusted, She tries to kick Xiao Zifenf hand with her foot.

“Xifu, don’t be afraid. It’s very gentle. I’ll put it in your hand, and it will produce a drug. Soon, it will be fine.”

“I don’t want it. I’d rather die of pain than let it touch me.”

“Xifu, it’s okay, trust me.”

Believe in your ghost.

“Xiao Zifeng, are you crazy?” Tang Mingyue asked loudly.

Xiao Zifeng shook his head, “Xifu, I’m not crazy.”

“You are not crazy? Then you did it on purpose. You know I am afraid of spiders, so you deliberately caught a big spider to scare me, you bastard.”

Tang Mingyue buried her head in the quilt and then started fake a cry, “Wuwuwu… how could I marry a bastard like you…Wuwu….I don’t want to live with you anymore…wuuu”

She heard that men are most afraid of women crying, but now she is only scared, and can’t cry, so she could only fake crying.

Sure enough, this is very effective. It seems that there is a little truth in what is often played in TV dramas.

Hearing her crying, Xiao Zifeng panicked, “No, Xifu, I didn’t mean that, Xifu, don’t cry, I just want to help you deal with the wound, Xifu, don’t cry…”

Tang Mingyue felt that this was not enough, so she hid directly in the quilt and covered herself with the quilt, “Wuuuu…you bastard! Throw that out…Wuuuu…”

“Xifu, I am wrong, don’t cry, I am wrong, I will throw this spider out now, don’t cry.” After speaking, Xiao Zifeng went out.

Hearing the Xiao Zifeng footsteps, Tang Mingyue finally sighed, then she lifted the quilt and got up, and quickly checked the Internet with her mobile phone what to do if someone was bitten by a centipede.

According to the Internet, if you are bitten by a centipede, you should immediately wash it with soap and water and then disinfect it with alcohol.

So she quickly put on her slippers and went downstairs to the bathroom, turning on the tap water, and washing the wound on her hand with soap.

Thinking that she just hold the centipede with her hand she felt uncomfortable in her heart, so I quickly washed both arms with soap and washed the slippers that had been used by Xiao Zifeng to kill the centipede just now.

After a while, Xiao Zifeng came back. He heard a sound in the bathroom and came over, “Xifu, I threw the big spider outside, and I threw it far away. It will definitely not come back again. Don’t worry.”

Tang Mingyue narrowed her eyes for a while, then turned off the tap water. She walked towards Xiao Zifeng’s face and gave him a beating.

Xiao Zifeng shrank, “Xifu, why are you hitting me?”

“Why hit you? You dare ask?” Tang Mingyue continued to beat him, “Asshole! Frighten me? You just owe me, I’ll kill you, ass! Dare to scare me, I’ll kill you…”

“Xifu, I was wrong, don’t hit, I was wrong, I was really wrong…” Xiao Zifeng hurriedly begged for mercy.

Seeing he confessed his wrong, Tang Mingyue’s anger disappeared. She puffed and asked: “Then next time you dare to catch a spider and scare me?”

Xiao Zifeng shook his head and waved his hands repeatedly, “Don’t dare, don’t dare, Xifu, I won’t do it anymore.”

Tang Mingyue is in a good mood even if she is out of breath, “Okay, you have touched the spider with your hand just now, go and wash your hands quickly.”

“Oh, good.” After saying that, Xiao Zifeng went to wash his hands.

After he washed his hands, Tang Mingyue took a nightdress and took a bath, and also urged Xiao Zifeng to take a bath.

After Xiao Zifeng went to take a bath, Tang Mingyue returned to her bedroom.

The dead centipede in the bedroom was gone. It seems that Xiao Zifeng swept it out while she was taking a bath.

She took out the medicine box and disinfected the wound with alcohol.

Now, the whole arm of the left hand bitten by the centipede is painful and itchy. Maybe she didn’t deal with the wound in time just now, and the toxicity has spread?

She checked it on the Internet again, it stated that there will not cause death. However, it would be painful for a few days.

It’s already midnight, and they cannot go to the hospital because they are unfamiliar with this place. Let’s talk about it tomorrow.

After a while, Xiao Zifeng came up after taking a shower, and he went directly into Tang Mingyue’s bedroom.

Tang Mingyue sat on the bed and looked up at him. He was not wearing pyjamas, and his upper body was not wearing anything. His naked chest was exposed, and the lower body was only surrounded by a white bath towel, and his whole body exuded the fragrance of shower gel.
