y care about power struggles. Who is truly thinking of the familyAmong the younger generation, Ada was gentle and well-mannered, but lacked experience and couldn't handle important matters. As for Che...Every country in the world has its own unique and fascinating folklore.

Just like Western vampires, the twelve Olympian gods of ancient Greece, Japanese goblins, and the Chinese Nüwa mending the sky, these legends all carry the cultural colors of their respective regions. Of course, South Korea also has such legends.

But no matter which country, almost all have legends of people who are immortal or can return to their youth.

Even children who are old enough to attend elementary school know that legends are just stories, and there is no such person in reality.

Especially Shen Cunmao was still an elite in modern society. He was used to analyzing things from a scientific perspective no matter what he did. So, when he heard his father say that only someone who could turn back time could use force to cut open the python's belly and take out the sachet intact, his first reaction was disbelief.

Moreover, Shen Mingqing also said that the person who reversed aging was not only from the dark world, but there was also a black dragon hidden in his body

Rejuvenation and the dark world are not hard to understand, but a black dragon hidden inside someone's body That's something else entirely.

"As for its specifics, I’m not entirely sure. Everything I'm telling you now is passed down through generations of the Shen family. You may have doubts in your heart, but you must believe that these things truly exist.”

After seeing what her son was thinking, Shen Mingqing's face turned serious as she slowly said.

Shen Cunmo didn't say a word, he just stared at the monitor.

Shen Yun in the display, still clung to the corner behind the door, gripping a bamboo tube with both hands, her face filled with terror, staring at the end of the corridor.

The chilling screams had vanished.

As if it had never sounded before.

Though barely visible from the monitor, Ke Shen could still see that a patch of dark crimson at the end of the corridor was becoming increasingly shrouded in white mist.

The monster about to emerge from the black hole didn't leave, but instead got closer and closer to the mouth of the hole.

It no longer let out its terrifying roars, only because it smelled the delectable taste of the offering. Just like a hunting leopard, as it got closer to its prey, it became increasingly silent, afraid of scaring Shen Yun away and letting her escape.

Shen Cunmao believed that in a while, he would definitely see a terrifying giant python.

Because his father had no need to deceive him on this matter.

But he was somewhat skeptical of the things passed down through his ancestors.

In his heart, he naturally felt that everything his father had just said was merely a legend concocted by the Shen family's ancestors after they rose to prominence on this land. It was meant to make people believe that the Shen family's wealth and glory were bestowed by heaven, something no one could defy.

Just like ancient emperors, who claimed to be the true dragon emperor in order to better rule their subjects.

What a true dragon emperor

Since he is the true Son of Heaven, why are there so many wise and mighty monarchs in history who are now lying in cold graves, waiting for posterity to dig up their tombs, open their coffins, take away their burial goods, throw their bones into the wilderness, or put them in museum display cases for visitors to pay to view

Therefore, Shen Cunmo could conclude that there were only man-eating pythons and no one who returned to youth from the dark world.

As for the Shen family's direct bloodline, there is a strange virus hidden among them. This is a fact.

After all, Shen Cunmo had already tested his blood long ago and found that unknown virus. Over the years, he has been secretly searching for a cure for the virus, but he has never gotten any results.

That kind of virus was passed down from the Shen family's ancestors, just like every family has special genes.

Is the virus in Shen's family's bloodline from a giant python—if so, Shen Cunmo really wants to scoff.

He didn't believe pythons could interact with humans.

Did you really think that the legend of Bai Suzhen, under Leifeng Pagoda by West Lake in China, was real

Of course, the probability of humans and snakes interacting is extremely low, but it's not impossible.

After all, there are many shameless internet celebrities on the current network. In order to become famous and make money, they have even livestreamed with dogs—the ancestors of the Shen family may have encountered a "viral snake" back then, and as a result, were once infected with a virus.

After being infected with the virus, the Shen family's fate also changed, from an outsider **revenant**, they became the first family in Hancheng.

In order to ensure that their esteemed status was passed down through generations, the Shen family ancestors fabricated this legend based on the giant python story and transformed Lóngxíng Mountain into the "Dragon's Walk" of the Shen family.

Any lie, in order to deceive others, must first deceive oneself. This is an undeniable law of lying.

Therefore, the Shen family's ancestors, in order to deceive the world into believing that their wealth and prosperity were divinely bestowed, had to first believe in the fabricated legends themselves.

How can one deceive even oneself

Then, the Shen family's ancestors gritted their teeth and decided to use the lives of their direct lineage descendants to make this legend a reality.

In the face of blood and life, any question pales in comparison.

Every twelve years, the fear grips the Shen family's direct lineage like a demon, choking them until they dream that their family must do this to enjoy generations of wealth and honor, to prevent the virus carried within them from erupting.

"Oh."

A sigh, soft and long, broke through Shen Cunmo's daydreams.

Just from the curve of his son's lips, Shen Mingqing could tell that by now, his son didn't believe a word he was saying.

Shen Mingqing merely sighed, he wasn't angry.

Back then, he stood here just like Shen Cunmao, watching helplessly as his loved ones were bombarded and defiled by the giant python before being devoured. Even then, he didn't believe what his father had said.

But now

He believed it.

Because he had already seen many things inside the bookcase safe in his study.

He now only had suspicions, suspicions that perhaps there was no one in the world who could open the python's belly and take out the sachet without requiring the Shen family's heir to die.

Upon hearing his father's sigh, Shen Cunmo only then realized what he had just done and hurriedly bowed to apologize.

"It's nothing."

Shen Mingqing hesitated for a moment before saying, "Back then, I was actually just like you are now."

Shen Cunmao slightly raised his head and boldly asked, "Father, where are you now"

Shen Mingqing's lips, somewhat shriveled, twitched slightly, but he remained silent.

Shen Cunmao knew he couldn't ask any more, so he changed the subject: "Father, I have another question."

"Said."

Shen Mingqing's voice was full of fatigue. He turned to look at the display: "Time, there isn't much left."

Shen Cunmao's heart skipped a beat, and he asked, "Father, if everything you just said is true, then after our family has finally produced a descendant like Yun after thousands of years, why didn't you send her to Room Number Seven nine years ago That way, Fifth Brother wouldn't have— died."

Shen Mingqing turned back and asked without looking back, "How old is Yun this year"

Shen Cunmo paused for a moment before replying, "In four more months, Yun Zai will be twenty-one."

Then Shen Mingqing asked, “And how old was she when your fifth brother died nine years ago”

Twenty-one minus nine equals twelve, such a simple arithmetic problem, Shen Cunmao naturally blurted it out.

Shen Mingqing asked for the third time, "Do you think a twelve-year-old girl could—let alone have relations with a python, but with anyone"

A twelve-year-old girl is still a child.

Girls of this age have not yet started puberty, meaning they haven't had their first period and are not fully developed. Of course, it would be inappropriate for them to engage in sexual relations.

Shen Cunmao only then suddenly realized, raising his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead. He felt ashamed and couldn't speak.

Shen Mingqing knew that he was asking this question purely because his heart was too tense. Of course, he wouldn't blame him for it: "Originally, I planned to wait another three years before sending Yun in here. But — ah."

Three years later, it was once again the year when a direct descendant of the Shen family would be sacrificed.

At twenty-one years old, Shen Yun was already mature beyond her years. In three years, she would be an incredibly mature young woman, able to handle anything and anyone, even something like a python.

The main reason Shen Mingqing changed her mind and wanted to send her to Room No. 7 three years early was that she had already been slept with by a man.

A woman in her twenties being slept with by a man is practically — if she hasn't been slept with by a man yet, that would be the strange thing.

Just as flowers bloom when spring arrives, Shen Mingqing didn't restrict his granddaughter and grandson from expressing their affection for each other.

Anyway, the python isn't bound to some old tradition of needing a virgin. All it wants is a woman from the Shen family with their special bloodline.

So Shen Mingqing was very clear, his granddaughter having been kidnapped by Ham and staying outside for so long, she must have been defiled by those vicious human traffickers.

But that's nothing.

He would still love his granddaughter as much as before, treating her like a precious jewel.

What truly made Shen Mingqing resolute in sending Shen Yun to Room 7 by the end of this month was a discovery he made unintentionally one day last month. While strolling on the beach with his granddaughter, he noticed a faint black tinge in her expression.

Anyone with a little medical knowledge can tell this is a symptom of poisoning.

But how did she get poisoned

After discovering something was amiss, the cunning Shen Mingqing didn't make a fuss. Instead, he took advantage of Shen Jiaquanli member Cha Li's opportunity to give her a full body check-up.

The examination results, as Shen Mingqing had feared, confirmed that Shen Yun was poisoned.

What kind of poison is she poisoned with

Highly poisonous.

Both Traditional Chinese Medicine and Korean medicine agree on this point regarding women's sexual health: “The three essence substances are highly toxic and can kill a woman.”

It means that if a woman has sex with three or more men on a certain day without using condoms, the three kinds of "proteins" that remain in her body could potentially react to create terrible toxins that kill her.

Moreover, this poison has no antidote.

After being kidnapped by human traffickers for so long, even a fool could realize that Shen Yun's innocent body had probably been violated countless times. So it was only natural that she would be poisoned.

Shen Mingqing, however, did not want to accept this reality.

After all, the possibility of a woman being affected by this poison is only one in a few thousand.

That is to say, after thousands of women and tens of thousands of men roamed freely all night, only one person became poisoned.

Shen Yun is that person.

Shen Mingqing really didn't want to accept this cruel reality. How much he wished to stay with his granddaughter for three more years

But the cruel reality forced him to send Shen Yun into Room 7 by the end of this month.

Otherwise, we'll have to wait until she dies from the poison. If that happens, it will take who knows how long for the Shen family's thousand-year curse to be broken.

That's when Shen Mingqing went to find Shen Yun that day, wanting to have a final dinner with her—but he found her watching top-secret military intelligence sent by Emperor Shù.

Then, Shen Mingqing got an idea and used this incident to lock her in Room 7.
