Closer to My True Form Every Day

Chapter 197: puberty

Views:

Feng Yi was quite disappointed when he heard Xiao Wu say that acupuncture was not possible.

I didn't really expect acupuncture to change the dullness of his tail. It was normal for the tail to become dull as the molting period approached. But I always felt a little restless and couldn't calm down.

At the same time, he also wanted to see if acupuncture could be used on him. If possible, acupuncture could be used after the molting period.

The Venom incident opened a new door for him—I study myself!

As Xiaowu's personal doctor, what Feng Yi encountered was beyond his common sense. He needed to learn more, fill his knowledge base, and then find ways to help his boss solve the problem.

Looking at the calendar, it is indeed very close to the Waking of Insects.

"Does it feel uncomfortable?" Xiao Wu asked.

"It's not particularly uncomfortable. Moreover, I think the psychological discomfort is more intense, and I can't concentrate on doing things. The previous two times I shed my skin, I didn't feel such strong discomfort."

"Maybe this molting is relatively more important. Or maybe you did something else before that, which affected the state before molting." Xiao Wu said.

"What did you do?" Feng Yi recalled his recent behavior. "Does sitting cross-legged count? I was wondering if I have obsessive-compulsive disorder. I feel uncomfortable if I don't curl my tail into that shape?"

"Do you feel at ease and comfortable when you sit like this?"

“It’s pretty good.”

"Then it shouldn't be a problem... of sitting posture."

Xiao Wu carefully analyzed the situation and told Feng Yi his opinion:

"Different creatures, different forms, have different ways of adapting. When you are in your original form, your vertebrae, ligaments, and muscles are all different from those of ordinary people, so you will feel more comfortable when you sit in your original form. These cannot be judged by ordinary people's concepts. Just like a cat will curl up into a ball, it is quite comfortable; when a bat hangs upside down, its muscles are actually in a relaxed state. The body structure is different, and the habits will also be different, follow the instinct.

"Also, in addition to being more relaxed when sitting cross-legged, with your form, your vision and ability to respond to unexpected crises will be enhanced when sitting cross-legged."

When you coil it up, it's like a spring. Even if you coil it for a long time, you won't suffer from nerve paralysis or limb numbness like ordinary people.

Therefore, Xiao Wu believes that Feng Yi's "sitting" posture is just an instinctive behavior and will not negatively affect Feng Yi's psychology and emotions.

Feng Yi also agreed with this statement.

Suddenly thinking of something, Feng Yi said, "When I'm browsing my phone or thinking, I'll grab the tip of my tail and swing it. Does that count?"

Xiao Wu: “…”

Why do you have such a habit?!

Rubbing his eyebrows, Xiao Wu's thoughts followed Feng Yi, jumping from "sitting cross-legged" to "grabbing the tip of the tail and swinging it."

Grabbing the tip of the tail ≈ picking the feet

This shouldn't be considered following instinct!

"Is this often?" Xiao Wu asked.

Feng Yi thought about it carefully, "It's true!"

If you don't think about it, you won't know when he developed this habit

"I don't know when it started, but whenever I'm thinking about something or my emotions are a little upset, I can't help but grab it and shake it," said Feng Yi.

"Apart from the fact that you shake it while grabbing it, will it also shake itself when you don't grab it?" Xiao Wu asked again.

"Uh..." Feng Yi flipped through his memory, "It has swung its tail before. It used to swung it before, but it seems to be particularly active recently, and its tail is too restless."

It's as if this behavior is not controlled by the brain!

Doctor Xiao Wu was silent.

Think carefully about Feng Yi's behavior.

Tail wagging ≈ shaking legs

Xiao Wu thought about what Feng Yi said, combined with the information he learned from the housekeeper, and raised his eyebrows.

"Have you ever thought of a possibility?" Xiao Wu asked.

"What?"

"Maybe, this is a kind of... adolescent restlessness."

Feng Yi: “???”

To make sure Xiao Wu wasn't joking, Feng Yi emphasized: "I'm almost 25, not 15!"

"Yes, I know this is your human... mimic age. But it's not based on your actual age, but on your developmental stage and degree of mutation." Xiao Wu paused for a moment and corrected, "The developmental stage of your original form."

Feng Yi didn't say anything, he hadn't been able to accept this statement yet.

puberty

How long has it been

There is no way I could be this restless!

Xiao Wu: "At this stage, you will have more unconscious behaviors, and you can also regard these behaviors as a way to share emotions. Just like many children in adolescence, some students are used to spinning pens. If they don't spin their pens, they can't calm down and think about problems attentively. Another example is shaking your legs. If you don't shake your legs, your mind will not be active enough and there will be no atmosphere for thinking. Gradually, it becomes a habit."

Feng Yi followed Xiao Wu's explanation and put himself in the situation.

It seems to make some sense.

So does this count as something similar to pen spinning and leg shaking

Seeing Feng Yi accept this statement, Xiao Wu continued: "But I still suggest that you try to restrain yourself and change these little habits."

He even suspected that if Feng Yi continued like this, the mutation would develop in other strange directions.

Like, rattlesnake style.

After all, according to Feng Yi's original form's development stage, he is not yet an adult.

Because they are "not yet adults", the mutation of their bodies is unstable, so the venom glands will be strengthened a second time.

If it passes the adult stage, it will be much more stable, and even if it continues to mutate, it will not change much. Therefore, before "adulthood", bad habits should be restrained.

Anyway, Feng Yi is not far from adulthood.

Feng Yi himself also agreed to change these little habits, but he was not worried about turning into a rattlesnake or something like Xiao Wu was worried about.

He was worried that these little habits would affect the mimicry, that is, the human form.

Although he is not in the entertainment industry, Feng Yi still has a heavy idol image.

Xiao Wu was still thinking about Feng Yi's "adulthood".

According to what the housekeeper said, the upcoming Jingzhe Day may be the transition of Feng Yi from "minority" to "adulthood".

Thinking of this, Xiao Wu became more excited.

At such an important stage, there will be a lot of movement and who knows what changes will happen. It would be even better if we could observe it up close!

What a magical experience in my career!

Oh, yes, Feng Yi also said that he had a feeling that the next molting might be during the Jingzhe period.

I wonder if a piece of the shed skin can be salvaged.

Xiao Wu asked, "Boss, can I watch you closely while you shed your skin? I want to see if I can take a sample."

Feng Yi agreed, "As long as it doesn't affect me, then yes."

Xiao Wu has mentioned before about taking samples during molting.

However, according to Feng Yi, Xiao Wu would most likely be disappointed because the shed skin would quickly decompose and disappear.

In addition, Feng Yi talked about his premonition: "I have a hunch that this time the movement will be a little bigger."

Xiao Wu was worried, "If the molting noise is loud on the day of Jingzhe, it will be easy for people to find out. Should we make some preparations in advance?"

Feng Yi felt it for a moment and said calmly: "No need, the gravel road is hidden, and the weather on the day of Jingzhe will cover it up well."

Xiao Wu opened his mobile phone to check the weather forecast. Although the weather forecast for a few days later would not be that accurate, it could still be used as a reference.

The weather information query software showed that on the day of Jingzhe, it was cloudy with light rain and the temperature was acceptable.

Are cloudy days and light rain enough to mask the "noisier" molting process

It has to be at least moderate rain, right

A few more thunders

Thinking of Feng Yi's keen sense of the weather, Xiao Wu chose to trust Feng Yi. Feng Yi's own special ability was much more accurate than the weather information query software.

Xiao Wu thought that Feng Yi had sensed the weather conditions on the day of Jingzhe in advance, which was why he responded so calmly, but in fact, that was not the case.

Feng Yi did not sense the weather of Jingzhe in advance, but his intuition and instinct told him that there was no need to worry.

Even if there is no rain on the day of Jingzhe, it will still rain at that time.

It’s not just rainy.
