The Return of the Demon

"Ning Chen, you bastard, you dare to throw urine at us, I... Ugh..."

Ning Mao started to retch before he finished speaking.

"Ning Chen, I am an official appointed by the court, how dare you... Ugh... Ugh..."

Ning Gan was the same, he couldn't stand the bad taste in his mouth and retched halfway through his words.

Ning Chen sneered and said, "I am helping you sober up, you're welcome!"

"By the way, boy's urine can cure diseases, you are taking advantage... but I've been a little irritated recently, so the taste may not be very good."

Ning Chen said, turned and walked into the room, kicking the bones on the ground out.

"Leave these for you to enjoy."

Immediately, he closed the door with a clang.

"Ning Chen, get out of here, you dare to throw such filthy things at us, I... Ugh..."

"I must tell my father, so that you can't afford it, Ugh..."

The two of them cursed in the yard.

Just as he was cursing, the door creaked open and Ning Chen came out with a chamber pot.

"You've been cursing for a long time. Are you thirsty? I've prepared another cup for you. Let's moisten your throat and continue cursing."

Ning Chen pretended to pour it.

Ning Gan and Ning Mao were so scared that they ran away.

"Ning Chen, you wait for me. I'm not done with you."

"I'll tell my father tomorrow. You'll have a hard time."

Ning Chen sneered, turned back to the room and closed the door.

He put the chamber pot under the bed, walked over and washed his hands in the copper basin, and then went to bed.

......

The next day, early morning.

While Ning Chen was eating breakfast, he was waiting for Ning Ziming to come to him and stand up for his two precious sons.

But after breakfast, Ning Ziming didn't come.

Maybe Ning Gan and Ning Mao hadn't woken up yet and hadn't told Ning Ziming about this.

Ning Chen would naturally not wait foolishly.

He came to the general's mansion and started another day of training.

When he came back at night, Ning Ziming didn't come to find him.

Ning Gan and Ning Mao didn't move, as if they had forgotten what happened last night.

But Ning Chen felt that this was just the calm before the storm.

Ning Gan and Ning Mao would definitely not give up, so he had to be careful.

When he went to bed at night, he locked the doors and windows, fearing that Ning Gan and Ning Mao would sneak in and kill him in the middle of the night.

Today's situation is much better than yesterday. Although he took a medicinal bath, he still felt a little sore after a day of training.

This situation will continue for a few days.

Ning Chen decided to rest early today.

When he left today, General Chen told him that Tianxuan would wait for him in the Zhuangyuan Building tomorrow.

And he didn't sleep well last night because of the trouble caused by the Ning Gan brothers.

He came to the bed, lifted the quilt, and prepared to go to bed.

But at the moment when the quilt was lifted, a black shadow shot straight at his face.

It was completely a conditioned reflex. He turned his head and made a lightning move at the same time, pinching it.

The effect of the training in the past two days was reflected. If it were before, he would not have been able to react at all.

The thing in his hand was icy cold. Ning Chen looked at it carefully, and goose bumps appeared all of a sudden, and his hair stood on end.

This turned out to be a black snake.

He grabbed the snake's body, and the black snake turned around and bit Ning Chen's arm.

Ning Chen swung it violently, and the black snake was thrown out and hit the wall, then bounced to the ground, its body twisted, and lost its attack power for a while.

Ning Chen rushed over, picked up the door-blocking stick and ran back, smashing the black snake's head with one stick.

Fortunately, he had caught snakes in the military camp before, and just felt disgusted, not afraid.

If it were an ordinary person, he would have been scared silly.

Ning Chen didn't know what kind of snake this was?

But this snake was all black, with a triangular head, and it was very ferocious... It must be a venomous snake with extremely venom.

If I was really bitten by this thing, I'm afraid my life would be in danger.

Ning Chen's face was ashen, and his eyes were cold.

It must have been done by Ning Gan and Ning Mao.

Bastard, so insidious.

Ning Chen was not in a hurry to find Ning Gan and Ning Mao.

Without evidence, it would be useless to look for them, they would definitely not admit it.

But Ning Chen remembered this account, and he would settle it with them when he had the chance.

Ning Chen took the door-stopping stick, carefully lifted the quilt, turned the mattress over, and checked it carefully.

Although he did not find other poisons, Ning Chen did not dare to sleep in the bed again.

He sat on a chair, covered with a cloak, and barely slept for a night.

When he got up in the morning, his waist and back ached, which was more uncomfortable than a day of training.

He didn't even have breakfast and went straight to the general's mansion.

It was too early to go to the champion building now, so he went to the general's mansion for training first, and asked General Chen something by the way.

Arrived at the general's mansion.

General Chen was having breakfast.

Seeing Ning Chen, General Chen was very pleased... Ning Chen's perseverance was recognized by him.

Which of these young masters in the capital can get up so early? Who can be as perseverant as Ning Chen? Who is willing to endure hardships?

"Lan Xing, have you had breakfast?"

Ning Chen shook his head honestly, "Not yet!"

"Come on... Sit down and eat together, how can you train on an empty stomach?"

General Chen is a military general, with a straightforward personality and not so many rules.

"Thank you, General. I won't be polite then!"

Ning Chen sat down.

After eating and drinking, Ning Chen said, "General Chen, I have something to ask you?"

"What is it?"

Ning Chen hesitated for a moment, took out a cloth bag from his cloak, and opened it.

The maids next to him were so frightened that their faces changed, and they stepped back repeatedly with screams.

What Ning Chen took out was a black snake, whose head was smashed, and it looked really scary.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... Don't be afraid, it's dead and won't hurt anyone."

Ning Chen apologized to them embarrassedly.

The maids went from being scared to being stunned.

Although they didn't know Ning Chen's identity, they must have a noble identity to be able to sit at the same table with the old general.

Such a person actually apologized to them, the servants... It was incredible.

Even General Chen and Qi Yuanzhong who was guarding the door looked at Ning Chen in surprise.

Ning Chen didn't think there was anything wrong. If he scared others, wouldn't it be normal to apologize?

Ning Chen asked, "General Chen, do you know what kind of snake this is?"

General Chen frowned, "This is the Black King of Hell, where did it come from?"

"Black King of Hell?" Ning Chen narrowed his eyes, "You can tell from the name that it's poisonous."

General Chen said, "It's not just poisonous, this snake is extremely poisonous... The people of Tuoluo country will specially raise this kind of snake. Our war horses will not survive for more than an incense stick of time after being bitten."

"The people of Tuoluo country will smear the poison of the Black King of Hell on the arrowheads. If our soldiers are unfortunately shot, there is no medicine and they can only wait for death."

"Fortunately, this Black King of Hell is extremely difficult to raise, and the survival rate is not high... Otherwise, I don't know how many of our soldiers would die in the hands of this Black King of Hell."

Ning Chen felt cold all over. If he hadn't reacted quickly last night, he would have been a corpse now.

"Lan Xing, where did you find this Black King of Hell?"

Ning Chen's face was gloomy, and he said word by word, "I found it on my bed."

"What?"

General Chen's face changed suddenly.

Everyone present was shocked.

It's horrifying to think about finding such a poisonous snake in your bed.
