Chapter 17: Looting Zheng Yueling's House
After leaving Zheng Yueling's house, Bai Jie walked around the Beicheng Huayuan community, being very careful and not showing his presence in front of others.
After all, he found that his size was really exaggerated.
Once discovered by the residents, it would cause unnecessary trouble.
He may have thought about hiding and stealing, but he also had to stay in this community temporarily.
Although Bai Jie wanted to attract human attention, in fact, he had already become a popular reptile pet after defeating the Five Poisons.
Thanks to the spread of self-media and the distribution of short video platforms, only the fans of "Night Goddess Nix" have formed a small scale.
In addition, a trend of raising reptiles has been set off throughout the federation.
Among them, there are cases where reptiles died in large numbers because of irresponsible breeding on a whim of humans, and there are also cases where humans were injured or even killed by reptiles because of unprofessional breeding methods.
The sentiment on the Internet can be described as a love and fear of reptiles.
It is worth mentioning that due to Bai Jie's rapid growth and abnormal evolution, the discussion about the lost witchcraft and poisonous insects has once again become popular.
Bai Jie hid in the half-human-high vegetation in the community, wandering around and thinking.
Now there is one thing to do.
First, find a way to tell Chen Zhang that he is fine for the time being, and the abnormal relationship between Zheng Yueling and the Criminal Investigation Department.
However, he never dared to confess that he turned into a spider. It felt too ridiculous. Who would believe it if he told others?
And he didn't want to appear in front of Chen Zhang like this.
Second, monitor and investigate Zheng Yueling, and explore the truth and murderer behind the series of disappearances.
Third, continue to swallow poisons, improve your vitality, evolve as soon as possible, and move towards the goal of transformation.
Bai Jie was a little worried. If he was extremely ugly after transformation, he might as well be a spider...
"Woof! Woof!"
Suddenly, a dog barked, and Bai Jie looked at it with shame.
Sure enough, a tall Alaskan sled dog was barking at the bushes where Bai Jie was hiding.
Woof your head! So noisy!
I wish I could give the other party the skill of running away with a look.
Bai Jie never thought of eating dog meat, but because dogs are poisonous, all that can be converted into life points can only be used as emergency food to increase satiety.
If a dog bites you, you can always bite it back, right? It's so embarrassing!
In Bai Jie's subconscious and conscious mind, he still retains the thinking of a human being.
Humph, you can scream, I won't argue with you.
Bai Jie decided to follow his spider instinct, find a tree, weave a nest, and settle down before taking the next step.
First of all, the nest must be able to see the door of Zheng Yueling's house and understand her daily in and out of the door.
Secondly, it must be high enough, deep enough, and hidden enough.
The greening work in this community was done well, and Bai Jie quickly confirmed the location of his nest.
About half an hour later, Bai Jie wove a spider web on the top of a dense tree.
A dense spider web spread horizontally, connecting branches of uniform thickness, like a hammock, with a diameter of 3 meters, wider than the largest breeding box in Zheng Yueling's house.
At the same time, Bai Jie also arranged hundreds of spider silks around his nest (hammock) horizontally and vertically to serve as a cordon to sense foreign invasion.
"It's great. After decorating my own home, I feel a sense of accomplishment."
"Is this more comfortable than the witch's box?"
Bai Jie lay on his belly, staring at the deep night sky.
"It seems that the witch will go out today. As soon as she goes out tomorrow, I will go to clean up the poison in her room."
He did not choose to take action when he controlled Zheng Yueling this afternoon, firstly because he had just evolved and was still a little weak.
Second, he felt that the witch might not have used her tricks yet.
He was afraid that after swallowing the poison on the spot, he would suppress his sleepiness and fall asleep, and then he would be at the mercy of others.
......
The next day.
After confirming that Zheng Yueling had left the community, Bai Jie sneaked into the familiar house again, which was considered his second visit.
The large and small breeding boxes and poisons were still in the living room.
Bai Jie came to a box containing emperor scorpions and easily opened the lid with his forelegs with sharp blades.
Next, it was time to hunt naturally.
Either use poison arrows to spray the target to poison, or use the foot blade to cut and the sharp spider silk to cut the target into pieces, or directly use the skill of bite on the mouth.
Bai Jie found that among these skills, the most labor-saving and efficient one is the foot blade cutting.
"My cold weapons are really useful."
In a quarter of an hour, Bai Jie had killed all the poisonous creatures in the living room, about 100.
There were still some non-toxic reptiles left in the living room, such as corn snakes and small insects used as food.
Having solved so many poisonous creatures by himself, Bai Jie couldn't help but sigh again at Zheng Yueling's willfulness with money.
You know, during the live broadcast before, there was basically a loss caused by the death of poisonous insects every day, so Bai Jie had seen Zheng Yueling replenish the poisonous insect inventory once, which shows that Zheng Yueling has strong financial resources.
After the death of the poisonous creatures, Bai Jie did not choose to swallow them immediately.
And 놆 wrapped the corpses of poisonous insects that had been injected with corrosive toxins layer by layer with spider silk, just like packaging express parcels, and then bundled the small packages into a large package and carried them to their own nest.
It took eight trips to empty the room.
Bai Jie's physical strength was also depleted, and his satiety dropped to 58% - because he had not eaten much since he escaped yesterday.
Therefore, Bai Jie set his sights on the still-living cicada pupa...
After a meal, his satiety barely increased to 70%.
Satisfied, Bai Jie decided to digest his food and searched Zheng Yueling's bedroom carefully.
He opened a drawer, and the key was still inside.
Although Bai Jie had eight legs and a pair of pedipalps, it was still awkward and difficult for him to unlock the door with the key.
It took a lot of effort to open the secret door behind the closet, and there was a secret room inside.
He had found Ah Xiao in here, and was blocked by the detectives of the Criminal Investigation Department.
He looked inside, and with his perception, he found nothing.
Suddenly, a mechanical and emotional voice sounded, and a line of characters appeared in front of him:
[Weak spiritual reaction detected, target location search in progress...]
What's going on? Bai Jie suddenly became alert.
[Search completed]
In Bai Jie's perception, a strange, yet sacred and pure breath suddenly appeared.
He looked at the corner of the secret room, his eyes and mind were fully focused, and a metal box the size of a bedside cabinet appeared in the darkness.
Strangely, when Bai Jie's eyes fell on the box, the box suddenly emitted a pink and purple light as if it had sensed it.
"This..."
Bai Jie came to the box and wanted to open it, but found that it was locked with a password.
It must be opened, I need it! This thought quickly occupied Bai Jie's mind like a weed.
But before Bai Jie could do anything, the box opened automatically.
It might be more appropriate to say that Bai Jie was stretched open by the pink-purple halo from the inside.
As soon as the box was opened a crack, the pink-purple light quickly wrapped around Bai Jie, and his body flowed lightly, as if he had found his owner's pet and was acting like a spoiled child.
The moment Bai Jie saw the object in the box, he seemed to be struck by lightning, and froze in place, not moving at all.
