As Yu Fengxue and Yan Shiyin listened to the villagers' narration, their expressions became increasingly cold.

He Zhen had an amused look on his face, and thought to himself that this guy could talk nonsense even more than Qin Muyue.

"Ha, what country are you from?" He Zhen asked casually with a joking look on his face.

"We...we are from Dayi country. We are here in the barren mountains of Hansu County. Immortal masters, you must save us." The villagers complained.

Yu Fengxue's stern and clear eyes were suddenly covered with frost.

The world of immortal cultivation supports three human emperors, one to facilitate the management of the human world, and the other to make the human population prosperous and have more and more talented people with spiritual roots.

Natural disasters, demonic calamities, and wars will only make the monsters and evil spirits stronger, and there will be more and more mortals without spiritual roots. And the most important point is that once human women are full of resentment in their hearts, they will be possessed by the monsters and evil spirits that erupt during the devil month of July. If they are pregnant women, there are countless cases where the fetuses in their bellies directly mutate into demon fetuses.

On the one hand, Yu Fengxue was angry that they violated the law by buying and selling women. On the other hand, she felt that they were ignorant of the consequences and almost gave birth to a demon fetus. You must know that the birth of the demon fetus would mean the day when the demon child would massacre the village.

He said sternly, "How dare you risk the laws of Daqi to buy and sell women? It makes women resentful and emotionally numb. I'm afraid your village will never give birth to children with spiritual roots."

The villagers jumped up and down as if their tails were stepped on.

"No, that's because the woman's belly is not doing well. Luckily, the snake demon has captured all those bitches. When we get out, we can just find new wives."

"You don't know what life and death are." He Zhen sneered.

"It seems that there may be more evidence by the river." Yan Shiyin, based on past experience, knew that villages with conditions for the birth of demon children would inevitably have cases of child murder, so he suggested: "Let's go to the river to see if there are any corpses."

The three decided to go to the river to look for clues. They knew that this was not only to rescue Qin Muyue and Liu Ruyan, but also to find out the purpose of the snake demon.

At the same time, Qin Muyue woke up in a dark red sedan chair, and the stale smell was a bit pungent in her throat.

Outside the sedan came the sound of water and the harsh sound of scales rubbing against sand and gravel.

Qin Muyue's scalp suddenly felt numb. She was not in a hurry to lift the door curtain and used her spiritual sense to jump out.

A snake head as big as two bridal sedans poked out of the water. Its triangular head had two horn-like bumps on top. Its bloody mouth spit out a forked tongue, smelling the scent in the moist morning mist.

Qin Muyue immediately understood how Langsang felt. Could it be that this white snake was also invincible the first time it saw someone, and would die if it jumped off the cliff the next time it saw someone.

[Host, why don't you take a look at its cultivation level?]

[Nonsense, I’m watching this.]

Qin Muyue used his spiritual sense to probe the white snake's head. Hmm, he couldn't tell its cultivation level.

[Tong, we have to call him a senior anyway]

[Don't give up, host! ]

The snake's head moved closer to the sedan chair and probed with its forked tongue. Qin Muyue remembered that snakes have very poor eyesight.

"Master, they are two girls." The ghost bride suddenly appeared beside the white snake and bowed.

Qin Muyue's face changed, and he cursed inwardly, "You're a jerk who sold me out." He took out the top-grade invisibility talisman and breath-hiding talisman and stuck them on his body.

"Oh, the person ran away, how come this thing disappeared too?" The ghost bride lifted the curtain and looked out.

"They should not be mortals, but they can't escape from the world in my belly." The white snake transformed into a man with a silver mask on his face.

"Ling'er, let's go back to Boguang Palace." He looked at the ghost bride, his narrow golden eyes slightly curved, and his thin lips curled up into a soft smile.

"Yes, Master." The ghost bride nodded obediently.

[Ahhh, I’m not clean anymore. I’m actually in the snake’s stomach]

[Host, the universe in your stomach is equivalent to the Sumeru space that can store living beings. It is not that dirty.]

[Ah, I really wish I were an alien so I could just go out and take a shower and be clean]

[Host, you are going to give birth to a different snake.]

Qin Muyue's communication jade slip vibrated, and she took it and took a look.

Liu Ruyan: Sister, are you there?

Qin Muyue replied: I am still in the sedan chair, you release your spiritual sense to mark me, and then we will follow the master and disciple.

After a moment, Qin Muyue's spiritual sense sensed that Liu Ruyan was right next to the sedan chair. She and Liu Ruyan looked at each other and followed the master and disciple to the river.

With a splash, the White Snake jumped into the water with the ghost bride. Qin Muyue's face turned pale and she could only take out the water-repellent beads and walk into the river.

Liu Ruyan sent a message: "Sister, don't be afraid, I'm right beside you."

"Ha, senior sister is Master Angsu, how could senior sister be afraid?" Qin Muyue subconsciously held her breath while transmitting the message, forgetting that she could breathe because of the water-repellent beads.

[Host! Take a breath, do you want to suffocate yourself to death? ]

Qin Muyue came back to her senses, her face had turned red from holding her breath. She took a deep breath and found that the white snake turned its head. She was so scared that she quickly covered her mouth.

"Master, what's wrong?" Ling'er looked at the man who turned back.

"It's nothing, maybe some river clams are blowing bubbles." The white snake smiled, turned around and continued to swim underwater.

The ghost bride slowly followed the man and floated into the cave at the bottom of the river. Qin Muyue and Liu Ruyan hesitated for a moment and followed him in.

The cave interior was unexpectedly spacious, with walls covered in glowing moss.

At the end of the passage was a palace filled with corals, pearls and colorful shells. Walking up the stairs, the White Snake and the Ghost Bride passed through many rooms.

Qin Muyue and Liu Ruyan saw many things that had nothing to do with monsters, such as a room with many cradles, a classroom with many desks, calligraphy and painting, a workshop with many embroidery cloths, and even a long dining table with dusty bowls and chopsticks.

Liu Ruyan: The furniture in the White Snake Hall is similar to that in the Women's Book Club Orphanage.

Qin Muyue: No way, no way, does this white snake like to adopt a human orphan girl and make money by weaving cloth for her? But now, where are all the people?

Liu Ruyan: Sister, let’s continue to follow them.

The White Snake led the ghost bride to the pool in the center of the hall. There was an ice bed in the middle of the pool, on which lay a girl in an embroidered skirt with pale, bloodless skin.

"This person looks exactly like the ghost bride." Qin Muyue and Liu Ruyan looked at the body in surprise.

"Did you see it? If you have any questions, I can answer them." The white snake turned around, smiled, and stared at the place where the two girls were invisible.

Qin Muyue was shocked and had to tear up the talisman paper to reveal her true form. Liu Ruyan followed suit and tore up the talisman paper.

"Senior, your cultivation is indeed profound." Qin Muyue clasped his fists and bowed.

"Ruyan greets the senior." Liu Ruyan also imitated Qin Muyue, without any fear on her face, and was neither humble nor arrogant.

"When you see those rooms, do you think I am good or evil?" the white snake asked with a smile.

"I think you look like a girl with twin ponytails, white hair and animal ears." Qin Muyue replied.

[Host, that's enough. He's not a yellow-skinned man. ]

"Young man, what are you talking about?" Bai She was stunned by Qin Muyue's words.

Liu Ruyan remained calm and thought it would be better for her to mind her own business.

Qin Muyue noticed that the ghost bride never spoke when the White Snake was speaking. Upon closer inspection, she found that her eyes were no different from those of the puppet.

"Let me make a bold guess. This Ling'er actually has no consciousness, but is just a remnant soul. And you want to revive her, so you let the villagers sacrifice young girls continuously, under the euphemism of marrying the river god. But those girls were all sacrificed with your heart and soul to summon Ling'er's soul." Qin Muyue finished her serious analysis in one breath.

"My friend, you have put the cart before the horse. Those baby girls and the girls sent by the villagers are all my disciples," the white snake held his forehead, realizing Qin Muyue's unreliability, and took the initiative to explain: "Those villagers have always had the custom of drowning newborn baby girls in the water. Until I went out of the cave for a walk, I found a layer of bones at the bottom of the river, and they had begun to give birth to bloody baby ghosts.

So when a villager threw a baby girl into the river again, I rescued the baby and put a silver plate and cup in the water, hoping that they would not commit sins again. I just tried to raise the child, and I named her Ah Xi, hoping that she would cherish her life. "

"For children like these, I taught them to read and embroider. After they grew up, I erased their memories of the Boguang Palace and sent them to the big cities of the human race, so that they could be self-reliant." The white snake showed a nostalgic look.

"You're a pretty good demon, don't you know how many girls those villagers will throw at you for money?" Qin Muyue felt that the White Snake was also a big victim in the demon world, helping a group of beasts raise their daughters and using gold, silver and treasures to raise their sons.

"Each family has ten children. In addition to the five girls who were brought in the sedan chair earlier, I have probably adopted fifty-six baby girls." Bai She counted on her fingers and answered Qin Muyue.

"Is your favorite one Ling'er over there?" Qin Muyue had an ambiguous expression.

"Don't talk nonsense. I just think it's too pitiful that Ling'er was burned to death by the people in that village. I just want to resurrect her." The White Snake's face changed and she retorted with a wave of her sleeves.
