One night the centipede rat became strong enough to crawl out of the flower pot. Cheung bo Jai, Baba, was watching The Condor Heroes on VHS when the Centipede Rat crawled out onto the floor. At first he came out in Centipede form and came across a mouse looking for food to bring back from the kitchen to his mouse hole.
Choi Yang: Stop right there, where are you going to get food.
Mouse: I only have a few grains of rice, to bring back to my family that's it. There is some in the kitchen but thi is all I can carry.
Choin Yang: I can get that later, but right now I will eat you first so that we don't compete over food resources.
Choi Yang stabbed the mouse with his centipede pincers and began eating him. Cheung Bo Jai paused the VHS video because he had copies of them and could always watch later, but this show was live and could only be seen once. Choin Yang swallowed the mouse whole and there was not even any blood spilled on the floor. The Centipede Rat found a rat hole and out of site began eating all the rats and mice living in the walls, indeed the family of the rat that was the soul of the Bamboo Centipede. Though that was his past soul and his appearance and so he was allowed into the rat Clan, those rats not realizing that he was nowa different creature altogether and not there to bring them food, but to kill them and eat them for food.
Cheung bo Jai, Baba, passed out and began dreaming after watching the Rat kill the mouse and only awoke when the door lock clicked and Mommy and Enkidu returned home from work at the Sea To Sea Market.
