n only stay half-submerged like this.At this time, it would be great to have something like a tree root or a piece of driftwood nearby. If we had something like that, we could use it to help us escape...A four-legged serpent writhed its way onto my chest.

Less than twenty centimeters away, I could clearly smell the stench on this beast.

I shook my body hard, trying to shake the snakes off.

But it didn't work. The snakes on my body not only weren't knocked off, but also, I flung the gao-wu amulet hanging around my neck onto my own face.

The little steel box hit my face, it really hurt.

The Gua box suddenly flew open with a loud crash.

There was a ball of yellow paper inside the box. After Yao Yumen gave me this thing, I always carried it with me. There were faint traces of writing on its surface.

Holding a corner of the paper ball in my teeth, I shook it vigorously.

Soon, the yellow paper ball was bitten open by me, and some pale yellow powder flowed out.

Strangely, the yellow powder inside the paper ball was odorless and colorless. But as soon as those few four-legged snakes on my body caught a whiff of it, they retreated as quickly as a caterpillar seeing cinnabar.

Within two minutes, I was clean as a whistle, not a single snake to be seen.

I lowered my head and took a closer look. There were two lines of small characters on the yellow paper ball. At first, I couldn't make them out clearly. I bit down on it and shook it back and forth, adjusting the angle until I could finally read them.

On yellow paper, written in red ink with a hairy brush: "Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are bestowed by heaven. Guard against villains in secret, and insects in the open. In the subterranean palace of Yin Cao, be careful, be careful."

After reading this, I was overwhelmed with emotion!

Yo Yumen's amulet for me contains twenty-four characters of inscription! This woman seems to have known about my and my elder and second brother's secret plan all along!

Could this woman be a fortune teller!

What's more.

I also discovered that a very thin blade was embedded in the bottom of the Gua Sha box, somewhat like a razor blade, but thinner and sharper in reality.

At the risk of cutting my lips, I tried over ten times before finally managing to flip the gaou box upside down. I immediately bit down on the thin blade with my teeth.

After cutting the rope closest to me on my upper body with a blade, I sat up straight away. Then, biting down on the blade, I cut the ropes on my legs.

There were still many snakes crawling on the ground. My clothes were dusted with medicine powder from the gourd, and those snakes didn't dare to get too close to me. Whenever I moved, they would all slither into the darkness, and some even crawled back into the deep pits.

I've seen on TV how people treat dislocated arms, but it's like comparing apples to oranges. I'm not a doctor, and everyone on TV just snaps the bones back into place with ease.

I was hitting the wall, and every hit really hurt.

Perhaps it was a lucky charm's blessing, or maybe I just stumbled upon it by sheer chance.

After several tries, with a click of bones, I actually managed to connect it myself!

This is just pure guesswork. I tried to connect the left arm again, but it wouldn't work.

I peered into the large pit. It was very deep, dark and ominous, with a cold wind blowing from the bottom that sent chills down my spine.

Supporting my injured left arm, I hid the blade in my palm. I tiptoed, trying my best to be silent, and carefully crept out.

From the geographical structure of my surroundings, I am still under Mount Moth, presumably in some underground cave.

Keeping close to the wall, I hid myself in the darkness and walked for a few minutes. Suddenly, I saw firelight ahead and seemed to hear voices.

I crept closer.

"Brother Chen, you said we did such a great job this time. If that corpse can really come back to life by sucking blood, then we'll be rich! You know, Brother Chen, I heard that the vice-chairman of Changchun Society is dying, relying on hundreds of thousands of injections to stay alive. Let's give that corpse to him. Maybe then, Brother Chen, you could be promoted from the Eight Small Gates to the Four Great Gates! And I could join the Changchun Society too! Just thinking about it makes me excited, we could walk around sideways then! No woman would be out of our reach!"

"You little rascal! Did you come to Changchun just to pick up girls Man up! Can't you have bigger aspirations"

"Hehehe...."he looked at me and said, "He's not here right now, but we should be seeing him soon. Chen Hong, you must have heard of Qi Liu in the underworld, right"Hong Jie thought for a moment and said, "I've ne...
