Suddenly, a bizarre and horrifying sight unfolded. Within Yu Zitong's skeletal frame, a slender shape could be seen gliding under his skin.
Seeing this, Su Yu gasped sharply. "Is that shadow the Gu Snake?"
"That's right."
A look of reminiscence suddenly crossed Tu Xiao'an's face. He remembered that when he was a child, he would always listen to the old-timers tell stories of how they went Ascending the Mountain to catch snakes.
Every time he heard their tales, his heart would pound with fear at the immense danger, yet his blood would boil with excitement. The venomous snakes in the mountains seemed more terrifying than tigers.
The Snake Catchers relied on their wits and skills, engaging in life-and-death struggles with the venomous snakes until they were finally captured.
Tu Xiao'an remembered when he first apprenticed himself to He Zhennan and became a Snake Catcher. He had asked, "Master, what's the most terrifying venomous snake in the world?"
