Ming Li’s gaze drifted indifferently towards the female lead who had sidled up beside her. A gut feeling told her that, barring any surprises, this person was about to stir up trouble…
The group walked for a long time in the forest, drawing ever closer to its deepest reaches.
Ming Li inadvertently noticed something: the further they ventured, the more troubled the expressions of the male and female leads became.
Why could that be?
With this thought, Ming Li narrowed her eyes slightly.
“Careful! There’s a snake!”
Halfway through, Tao Tao, who was beside her, suddenly spoke.
Hearing this, everyone’s attention was instantly drawn. They then saw a black snake, as thick as a wrist, coiled on a nearby tree branch. Its cold eyes were fixed on them. Unnoticed by anyone, that snake actually had three tails…
Upon seeing the snake, everyone froze, standing stock-still and daring not to move.
Kang Yue, suddenly confronted by such a thick snake, felt a flicker of fear in her eyes. She instinctively took a step back, and by sheer chance, stepped on a dry twig.
“Snap—”
The sound of the breaking twig instantly attracted the snake’s attention.
The black snake, flicking its scarlet tongue, leisurely slithered towards Kang Yue.
“Ah!”
Witnessing this, Shi Lan, standing nearby, suddenly let out a scream for reasons unknown. Whether intentional or not, she abruptly shoved Kang Yue forward, then quickly scurried behind Liu Ting, feigning fright. “Brother Liu, there’s a snake, I’m scared…”
Pushed by Shi Lan, Kang Yue lost her balance and lunged directly towards the snake.
“?!!”
As the large black snake drew nearer, Kang Yue’s face turned deathly pale, her expression one of pure terror.
Just as Kang Yue thought she was about to have an intimate encounter with the terrifying large black snake, she suddenly felt her collar being grabbed. By the time she registered it, the large black snake had vanished.
Seeing this, Kang Yue breathed a sigh of relief. She was about to turn and say something to Ming Li beside her, but her voice caught in her throat.
Looking at the large black snake in Ming Li’s hand, Kang Yue’s face turned deathly pale once more. “Li… Sister Li!”
Hearing this, Ming Li raised her eyes and glanced indifferently at the woman beside her, calmly stating, “Don’t worry, it’s not poisonous.”
Everyone, “……” Is it a matter of whether it’s poisonous?? You just grabbed such a terrifying snake so casually, and you’re acting so calm, are you serious?
Observing Ming Li’s composed demeanor, the atmosphere around them became unnervingly peculiar.
Suddenly, Song Fengyun, within the group, saw something that made his face contort in shock. He pointed at the large black snake in Ming Li’s hand and exclaimed with astonishment, “Why does this snake have three tails?!”
Hearing this, everyone’s gaze quickly followed where he pointed. Indeed, the large black snake had three tails.
Everyone, “……” What’s going on? Has this snake mutated??
Ming Li glanced indifferently at the snake in her hand, then, under everyone’s shocked gazes, casually tossed it away.
“What are you doing!”
Upon witnessing this, the burly man frowned and said somewhat agitatedly.
Ming Li, “What are you so agitated about?”
“I… I didn’t!”
Meeting Ming Li’s seemingly all-seeing eyes, the man guiltily averted his gaze.
Seeing this, Shi Lan, who had been hiding behind Liu Ting, sensed something and quickly stepped forward. “We should leave here quickly. It’s too dangerous here!”
“Host, there’s an underground laboratory nearby…”
