Closer to My True Form Every Day

The hospital Feng Yi chose for the poison test was not the one in the center of Rongcheng, but a hospital near Mount Yue. Most of the patients received by this hospital were tourists from the Mount Yue Scenic Area.

After the Mount Yue Little Green Dragon incident, the number of tourists received by the Scenic Area had increased sharply, and so had the number of patients received by the hospital. Incidents of tourists harassing small animals, getting bitten, scratched, mistakenly eating poisonous fruit, etc., were almost daily occurrences, and some people just couldn’t see the warning signs, no matter how big they were. Of course, there were also tourists who were purely injured by accident.

Every year there were also cases of poisonous snake bites. There were very few poisonous snakes left in the wild, but they did exist. This hospital was still quite experienced in this regard.

The ambulance that first responded back when Feng Yi caught the little green dragon was from this hospital, and they were the ones who provided the antivenom. Although it wasn’t used, it could be seen from this that they had experience in this area. Even if they didn’t have practical experience, they would at least have theoretical knowledge, so they wouldn’t be left helpless when they encountered a situation.

Feng Yi drove alone this time to test the poison. He chose a hotel near the hospital. The hotel conditions weren’t great, but it was convenient.

After the Mount Yue Little Green Dragon incident, hotels of all sizes were full. Although some time had passed and online popularity had dropped greatly, the number of tourists had not decreased significantly. Feng Yi chose a weekday and was able to book a vacant room. If it had been a holiday, it wouldn’t have been possible.

Upon checking into the room, Feng Yi took the tools out of the box.

Even though he had a tendency to look for trouble, it didn’t mean he really had a death wish, so he still needed to take precautions. He took out disinfectant, gauze, bandages, and other tools that might be used. After disinfecting them, he set them aside.

He took a small knife from the toolbox and cut the back of his hand.

Feng Yi did not dare to compete with those who specialized in testing the venom of poisonous snakes. Those brave people would directly grab the heads of the snakes and let them bite their arms.

The wound he had made was not large and was bleeding only slightly. He took out a bottle of venom from his backpack and looked at the “left” label on it. This was the venom released by the left fang.

After dripping two drops of venom onto the uncoagulated wound, Feng Yi watched the time and observed the changes in his body.

There was a slight burning sensation almost immediately when the venom came into contact with the wound. After a while, the burning pain did not deepen, and the swelling of the wound was not serious. There were no blood blisters, ulcers, or other symptoms. There was a slight numbness, but it disappeared quickly. Until the small wound on the back of the hand coagulated and scabbed over, there were no other symptoms. The initial slight swelling also disappeared.

Of course, Feng Yi did not dare to be careless, as some neurotoxins were very deceptive. Feng Yi waited for three more hours. There were no symptoms like muscle paralysis and shortness of breath; there was no reaction at all.

How weak, Feng Yi thought.

The development process of the fangs and venom glands had been extremely painful, and the two fangs looked so cool when they popped out, but the toxicity was so feeble?

It was also possible that the wound was too small, and the dose of venom was not enough.

After, Feng Yi cut another wound of the same length next to the first one and dripped two drops of the venom squeezed out by his right fang. The symptoms were the same as before.

However, Feng Yi did not rush to continue. He waited until the next day to confirm that his body was not affected by the poison, producing any adverse symptoms, before conducting the second toxicity test.

The second time around, Feng Yi was more daring. Instead of the back of his hand, he made a longer and deeper wound on his forearm. Like before, he tested both the venom from his left and right fangs.

The symptoms were a little more obvious than yesterday, but they still disappeared quickly. Feng Yi guessed that either the venom was not strong enough, or it was as the old butler said, that his body had developed a resistance to his own poison.

“It seems that I can’t be poisoned by my own venom.”

Regardless of the reason, this made Feng Yi much more relaxed. The threat of poison no longer hung over him, and he no longer had to worry about being knocked out all the time.

Feng Yi didn’t have as many reservations on the third day, and bit his own arm directly, injecting more venom. The inflammatory reaction of the wound was slightly stronger this time, with obvious swelling, but no ulceration. In addition, Feng Yi felt a slight dizziness, blurred vision, and difficulty breathing. He immediately got up and went to the hospital.

However, these symptoms quickly disappeared. By the time he ran to the entrance of the hospital, the dizziness and shortness of breath were gone.

Feng Yi sat at the hospital gate and waited for two hours. The longer he waited, the clearer his mind became. When he looked at the wound again, the inflammation had subsided and formed a scab. The inconspicuous muscle numbness had also completely disappeared.

After biting himself, Feng Yi waited for three more days. After showing no symptoms, he checked out of the hotel and left.

“It’s confirmed! My poison doesn’t poison me!”

Now, not only was Feng Yi no longer worried about being poisoned by himself, he also planned to poison himself once a day. Perhaps his own ability to resist poison would be stronger in the future.

After confirming that there was no threat, Feng Yi became cocky and tapped the two long teeth with his fingers, “Then what is the point of you two developing?”

If he didn’t take the initiative to bite himself, he wouldn’t have to be afraid of the little bit of venom that would accidentally leak out from time to time. Snake venom was also an enzyme. The main component of enzymes was protein. When those proteins went through the digestive tract, they would be broken down by stomach acid. In terms of diet, he could put aside all his worries and eat openly!

As for the venom, he didn’t dare to sell it. The PB were still in Rongcheng and the ongoing investigation was so strict. If he sold the venom now, they might come knocking on his door in the middle of the night. Besides, he wasn’t an ordinary person now, nor was he considered a snake. Who knew what kind of poison it was? If it turned out not to be snake venom, he might be labeled a terrorist.

He was a law-abiding citizen; he didn’t do such things!

It was even more unnecessary to use this to make money. He still had ten million in his account. Even without the ten million, he could still make money in other ways that would not put him on the verge of breaking the law. If he really wanted money, he might as well go to the old butler and urge him to quickly transfer the inheritance his great-aunt left him.

After taking care of a major concern, Feng Yi didn’t want to go home right away. For the past six days, he had either squatted in front of the hospital or stayed at the hotel, and his nerves were always on high alert. Now, he just wanted to find a place where he could let go.

His body had no other evolutionary reactions, and Feng Yi did not know what kind of changes he would face next, but it was useless to think about it too much.

Feng Yi turned on his cell phone and searched for fun places nearby.

“Where should I go?”

Sightseeing? Not interested.

Amusement park? It was no fun to play alone.

Skydiving? Bungee jumping? He’d think about it.

As he scrolled through, Feng Yi’s eyes fell on a place.

“The zoo?”

In all the years since he had come to Rongcheng, he had actually not been to the zoo. After the climatic anomaly period, the strictest conservation law was enacted, and most zoos across the country were closed. But those that remained were secure in terms of manpower, financial resources, management, and professionalism.

Nowadays, many zoos were not in dire financial straits and were quite inept at online marketing. They were making much more money from their own marketing than they were getting from the government. Having money meant they could naturally give the animals in the zoo a better living environment. They could also cooperate with some research institutes, primary and secondary schools from time to time to conduct some popular science education activities.

“That’s the one.”

Feng Yi decided on the destination and drove to the zoo.

He was going to test his affinity!
