a phone call and hurrying towards the back mountain.Song Wei's eyes gleamed, she grabbed me and said, "It must be taking on a job! Don't believe me Let's go see for ourselves!""What's so interesting...But there was no one in this cave, only a shadow reflected.

I saw a translucent humanoid figure hovering before the stone wall, clinging to the wooden pillar supporting the cave. It writhed and twisted into an indistinct shape, resembling someone stretching their limbs.

Liu Feifei closely followed me, afraid of missing any horrifying scenes. However, she was holding a camcorder, which made me very annoyed.

I don't want to expose Younan, or let anyone else see him.

"This isn't the main point, the real focus is down at that entrance. Why don't you go and get in the mood first" I gestured to Liu Feifei.

Liu Feifei wanted a spooky, terrifying feeling. As someone with a child, I somewhat ruined the atmosphere. She scanned the stone cave, only seeing figures on the cave wall but not finding the translucent thing tangled around the wooden stake.

"Hmph, get out of our way, we'll see what you're up to… Fatty, come on." Liu Feifei kicked Zhang Fatty's calf, and Zhang Fatty immediately followed her with his phone held high like a dog.

I watched as the semi-transparent mass gradually took shape, a sense of familiarity stirring within me.

Where have I seen this before

This thing looks a bit unfamiliar, not like the techniques of our fellow practitioners.

But I am young and inexperienced, perhaps there are still many unseen magical arts hidden in the world.

"You are Moli Since you entrusted the matter to the Mu family, why are you pretending and unwilling to show your face" I asked in a low voice toward that semi-transparent thing.

"I... I'm waiting for the Mu family..." The voice was low and ethereal, not as terrifying as expected.

"I am a member of the Mu family." I frowned. "You are Zheng Daozhang's disciple What commission do you have for the Mu family"

"Down here, there's a sealed place. Zheng Daoxian’s tormented soul is trapped inside, but my power isn't enough to pull him out… His loved one has disappeared, so I can only find the people he hates, to help him break free from his bonds…"

Bound

That statement made me raise an eyebrow slightly.

Earthbound is actually a kind of obsession. Yin spirits are bound by their pre-death obsessions, drawing a line to confine themselves even after death, preventing them from moving on.

But we in the industry wouldn't use that phrase to describe it.

"Would you like to have the Mu family come and perform a posthumous rite for him" I asked.

"Hmm... If the Mu family has this ability, then they should transcend him. If the Mu family doesn't have this ability, then what consequences... I don't know either..." The semi-transparent humanoid pressed its voice low.

This voice, I'm not sure if I've heard it before.

I have a vague feeling I've seen this before, but I can't quite remember.

“Mo Li, is that a fake name” I asked directly.

The other party was silent.

“I don’t know who you are, but I have a feeling you’re involved in a lot of things.” I placed Younan by my leg, and he clutched tightly onto my calf.

I drew out a Shenjia secret talisman, holding it between my fingers and raising my hand to form a seal.

Demons and goblins, they can be spirits from heaven and earth or manifestations of the good and evil within people's hearts.

But they all fear the Five Thunder Laws.

I just got a hold of it, that translucent, writhing thing suddenly tried to get away, and a gust of cold wind carrying an evil aura assaulted me from behind.

The reason why thunderclap techniques frighten demons, malevolent spirits, and vengeful souls is precisely because they are aware of their powerlessness to resist despite knowing how formidable the thunderclap technique is.

Under the heavenly tribulation, one can only choose to endure it or flee desperately.

Having gone through so much, when I use thunder techniques now, I rarely hesitate and my movements are much faster. The yin wind couldn't even reach me before a bolt of lightning tore through the air, scattering it. That translucent thing suddenly shrunk and became smaller, then with a *plop* sound, it fell to the ground.

"Eh..." Yunan seemed to have seen a toy. He drew out his handkerchief and picked up the thing on the ground.

"You Nan, don't touch that! What if it's something bad" I quickly spoke up to stop him.

Ke Younan had already picked it up, I looked and saw nothing unusual, I calmed down a little.

"Mother, this seems to be...skin..." Younan's small brows furrowed.

I switched on my small flashlight, and in the cold light, a small piece of dry skin was clearly visible lying on You Nan's handkerchief.

This leather has become semi-transparent from drying out, with wrinkles on the surface and an overall whitish hue.

"This...is a snake shed" I thought it looked like a piece of snake skin, and an uncommon white one at that.

"Mother, those two people just now... were they also invited" Younan sounded a little confused. "They don't seem like cultivators. Could they be bait"

I recalled the information mentioned on the commission about the underground operating room, and frowned: "You're right, Younan... There are no people here. It would be difficult to find a few living people to use as bait. Only those who hear a little wind and don't value their lives would be attracted here."

But there's something strange, Liu Feifei and Zhang Fatty, why did they arrive before me

They are not famous wizards, and finding them in the circle might be harder than finding famous wizards. So how come they swarm like flies to blood

This remote wilderness, the so-called underground operating room, was actually an old black clinic.

The quarry was located in a remote area with no people around. After the founding of the nation, when society had just begun to stabilize, there was widespread poverty and hardship. People struggled to survive as they lacked food, clothing, and basic necessities.

This quarry is a mineral deposit left behind by former invaders. The minerals have almost been mined out, so now they only quarry stone.

Perhaps many people relied on manual labor to make a living here during that time, most of them being men.

Men aren't easy either. It's fine if one is alone, but if you have a family to support and are making ends meet in those impoverished times, it's incredibly tough.

Thus, the former medical room of the invaders left underground here became a "clinic."

Day-to-day bumps, bruises, and even serious injuries on the mine site are all treated here.

We couldn't afford to go to the hospital. Back then, medical care wasn't very advanced. We were just grateful if people survived.

Decades later, with the start of reform and opening up, opportunities multiplied. Quarries began to decline, with fewer people working there. However, a new problem emerged.

With the government's restrictions on childbirth, this place gradually transformed into a bloody underground clinic.

Later, with the advancement and development of society, the surrounding area was completely deserted, and this place became completely desolate.

Because the feng shui here is bad, blood and resentment have accumulated for a hundred years, causing no spirits to want to approach, and even trees cannot grow vigorously.

My dad's arch-nemesis, Zheng Daozhang, a former senior disciple of the Shen family, was expelled from the mountain gate and somehow ended up here.

This is a deserted place, a good place to hide away. That's just what Zheng Daochang did, using a false name and living here as a "traveling doctor" for the last few years of his life.

Those in the Xuanmen school were generally knowledgeable about medicine and health preservation techniques. Zheng Daochang lived here in seclusion until his death.

I wonder why there would be a disciple here… Could it be that he’s still taking on students

What's even stranger is that this successor of his, not only doesn't show his face, but also performs some strange and unusual arts.

Zheng Daochang is a disciple of the Shen family, and I can understand his descendants following the Shen family's methods. But what on earth is this white snake skin all about

"Mother, it seems... there's something outside..." Younan's hushed words pulled me back to my senses. They probably discovered something they wanted to hoard for themselves, and used machinery to excavate it secretly, which led to the collapse... But now everything is buried, and everyone who was the...
