788 Snake Cave

shape, his figure became more and more plump and clear.So just now... this Mi Luo fairy didn't manifest a physical form, did sheHow did Lin Yanqin see itI stared in astonishment at Lin Yanqin, who was..."Ah!" I cried.

Here it comes again! I felt this before at that cliffside castle!

Is it a vengeful spirit My whole body is covered in goosebumps, I stand there frozen, not daring to move. I secretly glance around with my peripheral vision, but I don't see the woman with blood flowing from her seven orifices.

Something must be clinging to me! This icy, slimy feeling is crawling up my leg—

It's terrifying...so terrifying!

What in the world is this —

I cried out in exasperation, stomping my foot angrily. I ran forward like a headless fly!

That coldness follows me everywhere, like a shadow!

"Don't come any closer, don't come any closer! I'm leaving right now, just leave me alone!" I helplessly shouted, turning my head away.

But behind me, there was nothing. That thing was formless and intangible. As soon as I stopped, my calf felt like it was being gripped tightly by a giant hand!

Frantic escape, helpless cries.

I stepped into a hole and went tumbling down a steep slope, landing heavily at the bottom.

If time could turn back a few days, I would definitely not have gone out.

No matter how hard my father tries to persuade me, even if he kicks me out, I will cling to the hitching post at my front gate with all my might and refuse to leave.

My family's livelihood comes from being yin-yang doctors and Daoist esoteric physicians. To ordinary people, we are just traditional Chinese medicine practitioners. However, in the yin-yang circle, families of esoteric physicians are very rare – because they lose lifespan and good fortune.

Treating illnesses and saving lives should be a virtuous act, but for sorcerers in the yin-yang circle, it inevitably disrupts the order of yin and yang, causing them to lose their yin virtue. Afterward, these sorcerers come to my home seeking treatment.

Treating an innocent person who has been harmed by evil spirits is different from treating a sorcerer who does business for money. The former accumulates good fortune, while the latter shares karmic burdens.

My family has been in this industry for generations. While other businesses have dwindled and are on the verge of extinction, my family's business is thriving and has a certain reputation.

Because every generation of my family has prioritized accumulating virtue over earning a living, we never miss an opportunity to do good deeds. We personally handle them all, never delegating to our disciples.

My home isn't really peaceful. I have a nagging mother, a father whose ears are soft but stubbornly unreasonable, and an older sister.

During this natural disaster, my father was about to travel to Hong Kong and Macau. My older sister wasn't feeling well either, needing constant care like a walking medicine cabinet. She was completely unable to participate in the relief efforts.

So this time the family's charitable work fell to me.

Without venturing out, I remain ignorant of my own foolishness and the extent to which I have been coddled.

When I stepped out, I realized how dangerous, unpredictable, and filled with sights and things that were beyond my imagination the outside world truly was.

For example, right now.

When I fell, I didn't feel much pain because my mind went blank from the fall. I don't even know when I passed out.

When I woke up again, all I saw was a crack in the distant sky, rain streaming from it and falling on my face, stinging me back to consciousness.

The scene before me...

I'm in a protruding corner. I didn't feel pain when I landed here, probably because I hit some things around me.

Big and small, twisted and entangled.

a snake that either swallows its own tail or its tails are joined...

This is a snake pit.

Serpent nature, yin and poison.

Thousands upon thousands, a writhing mass of serpents surrounded me, on the rocks beside me, and in the enormous pit below, their fangs bared.

A sinister atmosphere pervades the air, enough to drive one mad just by looking!

All black snakes!

Covering the sky and the earth, filling every nook and cranny, some as small as a finger, others...others... large.

In the pit of vipers, a gigantic snake was churning its body. There were also a dozen or so smaller snakes around it, not even big enough to fit between my teeth.

Why don't you just bite me to death while I'm unconscious Why make me suffer through this fear with my eyes open

I covered my eyes, the hissing around me relentless, a constant assault on my eardrums. I could feel the air grow cold and thick, as if even the soil beneath my feet was tainted with poison.

It was strange, though, that these small snakes circled around me, leaving a small patch of open space.

When I discovered this situation, it was almost dark.

I'm dead yet not dead, I want to escape but there is no way out. I'm stuck on this precarious stone platform, looking down at the terrifying scene below like a cauldron of insects. It's truly a situation where calling to heaven doesn't bring a response, and calling to earth yields nothing.

Why is there such a large snake pit here...

I crawled forward two steps, and the small snakes in front of me seemed to be electrocuted, scrambling away desperately.

What's wrong Even snakes are "disgusted" with me

This is the first time I've ever been disliked by an animal this much, from childhood to adulthood.

Crawling to the edge of the stone platform, I looked down. Besides the surging tide of snakes, there were also many white...stone pillars

A chill ran down my legs and up my spine. I shivered and turned my head slightly.

A hazy, pale white shadow clung to me, with a long body and legs as thick as my waist.

Is it a snake Is this a spirit snake

It actually rubbed its belly against my back, its whole body shape becoming more and more apparent, even its long phallus was visible, which scared me so much that I screamed.

A warning came from above immediately: "Silence!"

I looked up, and from the fissure that seemed as distant as the sky, a human figure emerged.

Mu Wanchen!

His expression was unreadable, but the anger in his words couldn't be contained.

"Yin Luo, you sure know how to cause trouble! You managed to fall into the Snake Pit, all the way out here. Are you trying to die!"ng me.The moon hung like cool water, reflecting in the small pond. He opened the window on the second floor, and a black raven perched on the sill, as if communicating with Mu Wanchen.Mu Wanchen looke...
