As if feeling the death of the poisonous snake, Tom cried loudly in the bedroom on the second floor.

This forced the children to go upstairs and open the door to comfort them.

It was also because of this that he let Mo Fei know that he did not have much time to dispose of the body.

Although it is unknown what poisonous snake bit Miles and then sought its own death, the presence of an adult's body in an orphanage would have been a big problem.

Simply, he wrapped the broken venomous snake in two pieces with Miles's clothes and put it into the snake cage.

Then he carried the body of Miles on his back, picked up the snake cage in one hand, and walked not far away.

London There is one place that is the best place to dispose of corpses - the sewer.

As long as you throw the corpses down and wait until the water flows over, you won't know where many of the corpses will appear again.

Mo Fei There is no other way to completely eliminate the traces of the corpse, so the only way to deal with it now is to throw him into the sewer.

He opened the manhole cover and threw Miles in. With a splash, he disappeared from the world.

Next is the snake cage, Mo Fei also plans to throw it directly into it.

But just before letting go, he saw something like a scroll placed under the snake cage. With a move in his heart, he pulled out the thing and then threw the snake cage in.

After finishing the processing, he cleaned up all traces and then slowly returned to the orphanage.

The children were looking for him anxiously, and because of Tom's actions, everyone also discovered his disappearance.

Although Aiwen tried his best to calm everyone's emotions, Jimmy they were still worried.

"Why did the dean suddenly disappear? Could it be that he was captured by a ghost? I seem to have heard that at Christmas, there will be ghosts that capture living people and become stand-ins!"

Because of selling bread, many neighbors like to tease children and would always tell them some ghost stories to scare people. This time, the dean disappeared out of thin air, which made them use their imagination even more, and then they became even more nervous.

Fortunately, Mo Fei came back in time. As soon as he opened the door, the children looked over warily.

As soon as they saw it was the dean, they were instantly surprised. Jimmy rushed over directly, like a cannonball, and rushed into Mo Fei's arms. "Dean, where have you been? We are very worried about you, and Tom suddenly cried, and we don't know why..."

Mo Fei patted his little head and said, "Okay, it's okay. I'm back. I'll go check on Tom first..."

"You go and wash up and go to bed..."

After saying that, he walked upstairs. Just as he passed by Lina, she smelled a hint of blood, which made her a little nervous.

But seeing that the dean had no intention of explaining, she did not delve into the reason.

However, I planned to ask again the next day.

Mo Fei came to Tom and quickly hugged Tom.

Tom also seemed to notice something on Mo Fei, and the crying stopped immediately.

"Snake helped us a lot, but it chose to leave..."

Mo Fei whispered this sentence in Tom's ear, regardless of whether he could understand it or not, and then left the dormitory with the child in his arms.

Today, he plans to sleep with Tom to avoid any accidents.

After the children went to bed, Mo Fei took out the scroll from the snake cage and looked at the contents under the oil lamp.

What is recorded in the scroll is a set of techniques for taming and breeding venomous snakes.

Moreover, seeing the comments around it, there are even some recipes for using snake venom to make poisons and secret medicines.

After reading all the contents carefully, he was able to guess the reason why the poisonous snake chose to commit suicide.

This secret method of cultivating venomous snakes requires first taming some very special venomous snakes. The specific species of venomous snakes are not mentioned in the scroll. The notes only say that the more special the species, the higher the final success rate.

The second step is to tame the poisonous snakes. They need to collect the venom of the poisonous snakes first, and then make some special secret medicines. When the number of these secret medicines reaches a certain amount, they will start to tame the poisonous snakes.

First, apply the secret medicine all over the body to disguise an aura similar to that of a poisonous snake, and then slowly develop intimacy with the poisonous snake.

Then gradually reduce the dosage of the secret medicine. When finally, even a small amount of the secret medicine can still make the venomous snake have no desire to attack, this is the successful domestication.

The third step is the most important cultivation technique.

One poison was selected for cultivation at a time, and what was recorded on the scroll was that the poison was used to make a very precious concoction for soaking. Mo Fei had never heard of many of the herbs recorded on it.

This explains the problem very much.

You know, Mo Fei and Medicine have reached the elementary level, far from the entry-level level. There are herbs that have never been heard of at this level, let alone the rarity.

However, another method is also mentioned in the annotation, which is to feed the poison directly to the poison bait, that is, a person, and then use his blood for culture. This method can increase the success rate of poisoning in cultivating venomous snakes.

But the biggest problem is that sometimes a lot of poison bait is consumed.

Another point is that venomous snakes can become violent if they are bred.

Under the influence of Mo Fei's Medicine knowledge, he also initially understood the role of the third step.

According to the method recorded on the serious scroll, those other Herbology are most likely to reduce the lethality of the poison and make it milder, thereby stimulating some of the special characteristics of the poisonous snake.

But the people who got it seemed to have no money or channels to follow the original method, so they developed crooked ways.

They used humans to lessen the effects of the poison and then fed it to the venomous snakes.

Not to mention that this method has its limits. If the effect of the poison is too severe, the person will die on the spot, and the poison attenuation effect will be lost.

Furthermore, this crooked approach seems to be very harmful to poisonous snakes. It is mentioned in the comments that poisonous snakes that can survive the effects of three kinds of poisons in the third step are already top-grade.

Judging from the harmony between Viper and Tom in the room at the beginning, and Mo Fei's guess about Parseltongue in the original work, he felt that the thing might be like this--

Tom used the magical effect of Parseltongue to restore the viper's sanity from the effect of the poison.

But the poison caused it to choose revenge, so Miles, who brought it here, became the best target for revenge.

Later, it chose to end its own life, perhaps because it no longer wanted to suffer the harm of poison.

This conjecture Mo Fei feels very reasonable.

It can also explain everything.

As for this scroll, I think it is Black Snake Gang's treasure. Although I don't know how Miles stole it, this kind of thing is also a hot potato.

Fortunately, Miles has not mentioned revenge on the orphanage to anyone, so as long as no one finds out that Miles died in the orphanage, there is no problem with this thing.

However, Mo Fei still planned to hide the things underground in the study to prevent accidents.
