Lin Hang awkwardly said, "They seem to have misunderstood our...relationship."
"Ignore it." I replied calmly, paying no attention to these idle rumors.
We’re not in the sa circle anyway, and we won’t see each other again.
A foul stench filled the rental room.
Those unaware would think a can of fernted herring had been opened, the sll was so nauseating.
Lin Hang seed unfazed after being exposed to it, "Luckily I’ve slled worse, otherwise I’d be dizzy from this."
I closed the door, blocking out any nosy chatter, and followed the sll into the bedroom.
Upon closer inspection, I was completely dumbfounded.
The wooden wall separating the two families had a large hole blasted through it by soone.
The rooms were completely connected, and through the wall was Drunkard Huang’s bedroom bed.
With just one glance, I saw two stiff corpses, and the poisoned snakes crawling all over them.
A chill ran through my body inexplicably; even though my internal injuries had healed, I was still afraid of these snakes.
Afraid they’d suddenly co alive and bite , just like what happened last night.
"Cousin, that...snake...crawled into...that woman’s skirt!" Lin Hang, still young, despite being from the Mysterious Gate Noble Family, had never witnessed such a filthy and bloody scene.
I pulled Lin Hang behind , "Close your eyes and don’t look, wait for in the living room."
"But what if the snakes attack you, what then..." Lin Hang was quite loyal, or perhaps both curious and afraid.
Covering his eyes, yet peeking through the cracks.
I shot Lin Hang a glance, "If the corpse snakes attack, who would be protecting who?""
"Uh, I’m heading out, cousin, be sure to keep yourself safe." Lin Hang choked up, obediently leaving the room.
A hole in the wall ant soone might have entered.
I carefully inspected the bedroom’s contents.
Blankets and regular clothes for changing were all still there.
But the needles and threads for Yin Yang Embroidery and related clothes in the suitcase were missing.
Fortunately, the lost clothes weren’t very important, especially the previous Life-extending Robe, which was kept by the Lin Family for my grandfather.
Currently, only two articles from the Yin Yang Life and Death Embroidery were lost: Divination Clothes and Corpse Clothing.
Suddenly, a figure appeared in the adjacent room, startling ; unsure of who it was, I hid behind the cabinet.
Was soone curious and snooping around?
Or soone else?
I secretly observed the movents of the adjacent room through the cabinet gaps.
The figure walked with light footsteps, barely making a sound.
She entered the bedroom from outside, gradually revealing her true form.
She wore a flowing white gauze dress, and her shoes were pure white embroidered shoes.
A young girl in her early twenties, holding a white flute.
Playing the flute, all the snakes awoke.
They crawled toward the girl, and she sprinkled powder on the snakes at her feet.
The snakes with venomous tongues dissolved into puddles of corpse water...
Ten Thousand Poison Hall’s Corpse Dissolving Powder!!
The girl noticed a snake still under the dead woman’s skirt and sighed.
She pulled out the snake and tossed it on the floor, "Rest in peace, and may your next life avoid such misfortune."
After speaking, the girl searched the woman’s body and then the drunkard’s.
Uncertain what she was looking for, she found nothing on the drunkard.
She searched the woman again, eventually reaching under her skirt...
Seeing such a restricted scene made want to co out from behind the cabinet and wash my eyes, but then I saw the girl slowly pull out a Copper Key, her face lit up with joy, "This is it!! Great, I’ve found it!"
"Bai Zanhe, is that you?" I stepped out from behind the cabinet and softly asked.
