Chapter 14: The Snake-Catcher
Clunk! Clunk!The snake-catcher’s hard-soled shoes struck the ground with a heavy, muffled sound as he walked.Everyone in the market kept their distance from him, unwilling even to make eye contact, as if he were not a snake-catcher but a venomous snake himself, ready to pounce and bite.This made Gu Ning’an, sitting cross-legged on the ground with a calm expression as he observed the snake-catcher, stand out even more.“Dear heavens, why’s he heading our way?” Zheng De muttered, his voice tinged…-

Without actively sensing or deducing events, he had no idea the spell on the tailor shop’s signboard had been triggered, nor did he expect this group of ghostly deities to seek him out in the dead of night.The spell character on the signboard had been greatly enhanced by Gu Ning'an, with its power and effects amplified many times over.Previously, the character functioned by discerning “people.” It still retained that ability,…

"N-nothing.""Hey, Hu Shi, what’s that you’re carrying? Is it for Mr. Gu?" Jin Wan, noticing that Hu Shi seemed more relaxed, went straight to the point.After a brief pause, Hu Shi replied, "It’s rice wine my grandpa brewed.
