Reborn As a Snake, I Can Absorb Fear

Chapter 41 Roast the snakeSu Ling had never been so embarrassed in her entire life.

She followed behind Jiang Feng with her head lowered, while Jiang Feng would occasionally tap her backside with his tail to signal her to walk faster.

”Xiao Bai, if you hit me again, I will really be angry.” Su Ling said in a low voice, gritting her teeth.

Jiang Feng arrived at a roast whole lamb restaurant and stopped.

The waiter at the entrance suddenly saw a snake stop at the door, staring straight at him, and was immediately startled.

”Holy crap, where did this big snake come from?”

[fear points + 40]

”Xiao Bai, do you want to eat roast lamb?” Su Ling guessed Jiang Feng’s intention when she saw him stop.

”Miss, is this your snake?”

”Yes. Boss, give me a roast whole lamb! No, make it two.”

”Two? Are you sure?”

”Yes.”

”Alright, please wait a moment. I will set up a table for you outside.” The waiter looked at Jiang Feng’s size and dismissed the idea of inviting Su Ling inside the shop.

Su Ling didn’t mind; she hadn’t planned on going inside anyway.

The human and the snake waited outside for a while, and suddenly, Su Ling felt a sudden urge to use the restroom.

”Xiao Bai, wait here obediently. Don’t run around, you hear me?”

Jiang Feng gave a rare nod.

His Owner had bought him two roast lambs, so he had to give her some face.

Not long after Su Ling left, eight burly men walked over.

”Holy crap, what a big snake.” One of the eight men swallowed his saliva after seeing Jiang Feng.

The others also kept looking at Jiang Feng, seemingly appraising an ingredient.

”Gentlemen, would you like to dine?” The waiter hurriedly greeted them.

”Where is your boss? Call your boss out.” One of the men, a square-faced man who seemed to be the leader, said to the waiter.

”Alright.” The waiter said and went inside to notify the boss.

Before long, a woman in her forties who still retained her charm walked out. ”Oh! It’s Brother Long! What would you like to eat today, Brother Long?”

”Boss lady, we aren’t eating roast lamb today. Help me roast this snake. Today, I’ll treat my brothers to some roast snake.”

The square-faced man pointed at Jiang Feng as he spoke, having already regarded Jiang Feng as an ingredient in the shop.

The boss lady looked stunned.

”I’m sorry, Brother Long, this snake doesn’t belong to our shop.”

”If it’s not from your shop, why is it at your entrance? I thought your shop had gotten some fresh ingredients. Then whose snake is this?”

”It belongs to one of our customers from just a moment ago.”

”We’ll buy it. Boss, you go ahead and drag the snake to be roasted; we’ll talk to its Owner.”

”This… wouldn’t that be inappropriate?” The boss lady looked troubled.

”What’s inappropriate about it? With my eight brothers here, it’s perfectly fine.” The square-faced man glared, and the other seven men also revealed fierce expressions.

Damn it, these bastards actually want to eat snake?

They really have some nerve.

Jiang Feng was almost amused to the point of laughter. He quietly released his Evil Snake Domain.

In an instant, it covered the entire roast whole lamb restaurant.

It was currently dining time, and there were nearly forty customers in the roast lamb restaurant.

To prevent overdrawing his Mental Energy, Jiang Feng hurriedly exchanged all five thousand-plus fear points on him for Mental Energy. He gained over two hundred Mental Energy, bringing his total Mental Energy to nearly seven hundred points.

Then, Jiang Feng turned everyone into a sheep and trapped them all inside the shop, including the boss lady and the eight burly men. He himself transformed into a butcher.

The entire roast lamb restaurant was transformed by Jiang Feng into an enclosed sheep pen.

Jiang Feng, now in the form of a butcher, licked the sheep-slaughtering knife in his hand and let out a strange, chuckling laugh.

The game has begun!

38 dining customers, plus the eight burly men, as well as the boss lady and the five staff members—a total of fifty-one sheep.

The kitchen, restroom, and other areas were not covered by Jiang Feng’s domain.

Everyone who had turned into a sheep looked at their companions and themselves in terror.

”Baa!”

”Baa!”

”Baa!”

...

They wanted to speak, but all that came out of their mouths was a sheep’s bleat.

Everyone panicked and wanted to escape.

Unfortunately, blocked by real walls, doors, and windows, they couldn’t escape at all. With their perception distorted, they didn’t even know where the real exit was.

...

Jiang Feng, holding a butcher’s knife, slowly appeared in the sheep pen.

All the sheep instinctively stayed away from him.

”Hehehe, little sheep, I’m going to pick a sheep. Whichever sheep I point to, that sheep will come with me.”

”Baa!”

”Baa!”

”Baa!”

[fear points + 30]

All the sheep began to stir again. They wanted to communicate with each other, but no one could understand what the other sheep were saying.

”It’s you, this sheep.” Jiang Feng casually grabbed a sheep.

After being caught, the sheep struggled desperately in his hand.

But Jiang Feng had 300 Strength; how could a little sheep break free?

[fear points + 60]

[fear points + 80]

The little sheep in Jiang Feng’s hand was terrified. He had only come to have a meal with his friends; the roast whole lamb had just been served, and he hadn’t even had a chance to take a bite.

He had discovered that he had turned into a sheep. Not only that, but the people around him seemed to have turned into sheep, and his friends had also turned into sheep.

He wanted to figure out what was going on, but discovered that the words he spoke were sheep bleats, and everything the other sheep said were also sheep bleats.

A sense of panic began to arise in his heart, but he still thought it might be a prank, or perhaps he was dreaming.

Until a butcher appeared.

Good heavens, this was his first time seeing a butcher from the perspective of a sheep.

That butcher looked too terrifying—muscular and fierce, holding a blood-stained sheep-slaughtering knife, radiating a terrifying aura.

When he laughed, he looked like a demon from hell.

He was so scared he wanted to run away, but he was a step slower than the other sheep and was grabbed by the butcher with a casual reach.

After being caught, he was extremely afraid and struggled desperately to break free, but the butcher’s hand held him tightly like a pair of pliers, and he couldn’t break free no matter how much strength he used.

At this moment, he was completely desperate; he knew this wasn’t a dream—everything was too real.

The butcher grinned hideously, and the blood-stained knife in his hand slowly descended toward his neck. He deeply felt the fated sense of powerlessness that a sheep feels while waiting to be slaughtered.

He really wanted to say to the butcher:

”I was also a human once; why must you treat me like this?”

”If there is an afterlife, I will never eat lamb again...”

Before he died, one question remained in his mind.

Zhuang Zhou dreamed of being a butterfly, a vivid butterfly! He did not know he was Zhou.

Could it be that I was originally a sheep, and I only turned into a human in a dream?

[fear points + 100]

Jiang Feng slaughtered the first sheep, doing so in front of all the other sheep.

[fear points + 40]

[fear points + 50]

...

”Hehehe, I’m coming to catch another little sheep!” Jiang Feng approached the flock of sheep, holding the dripping, blood-stained butcher’s knife.

All the sheep trembled in fear,

[fear points + 50]

...

Seeing Jiang Feng approaching, the sheep in front scrambled in all directions in terror.
