terrified. He had sent over a hundred men, but they were all defeated by a single opponent. Seven brothers died and over thirty were seriously injured. The rest were also wounded, and some even fled L...Shen Cunmao was completely dumbfounded.

But more often than not, it's a mystery.

Because he truly couldn't understand why the Shen family ancestors had to conceal the fact that their family had never produced a girl in a thousand years.

Even if it were thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years, the Shen family would still not have had a female member of the direct lineage appear. And so what

The lack of girls only proves that the Shen family is prosperous.

In fact, it is indeed so.

Let's take Shen Cunmo's generation as an example. He had five elder brothers, and over thirty cousins.

This doesn't even include the distant cousins who were already five generations removed from Shen Cunmo, by blood relation.

The Shen family has a large and prosperous family, isn't that great

"Not good."

Shen Mingqing's eyes twitched, and he spoke slowly, "Because there has been no girl's appearance, every twelve years, the Shen family sends a core descendant to Room Number Seven to be a sacrifice to the Dragon God."

Shen Cunmao's mouth opened wider, and his eyes widened.

"Zunmo, do you think I didn't feel pain when I sent your fifth brother, who had made a mistake, to room number seven all those years ago Didn't I fear the consequences"

Shen Mingqing's eyes were still twitching, his body swayed slightly before he took a step back.

Shen Cunmao only then came to his senses, hurriedly stepped forward and supported his father.

Shen Mingqing gently broke free from his grasp and turned to stare intently at the monitor.

On the display, Shen Yun was utterly hopeless, no longer shrilly questioning anything. She just clutched the bamboo rice container in her hands and stared at the end of the corridor.

Tears, like beads broken from a string, rolled incessantly down her cheeks.

The eerie cries coming from the speakers were becoming increasingly clearer.

This is enough proof that something terrifying is coming out of the black hole.

Shen Mingqing raised his hand and lightly tapped the keyboard in front of the display a few times.

Immediately, the invisible surveillance head inside Room 7 slowly turned, focusing on Shen Yun's face.

Shen Mingqing's slightly trembling fingers gently wiped across his granddaughter's face.

It seems he wants to wipe away his granddaughter's tears.

But separated by a screen, how could his hand touch her face

"It hurts. My heart aches, so much. In my lifetime, I've witnessed the tragedies of the Shen family three times already. This... this is the fourth. I hope, that this will also be the last time for the Shen family."

Shen Mingqing wiped it futilely a few times, then his hand hung down listlessly.

A thousand years ago, the Shen family's ancestors were favored by a princess, and after rising to prominence, the head of the household every twelve years had to experience the pain of losing a loved one.

To break this curse, a girl with the Shen family bloodline must be brought into Room Number Seven.

If it is a male, or an animal offered as sacrifice to the gods, the dragon will only eat it and return to the black hole, waiting for twelve years—or the end of each month, when new pigs and sheep are brought.

Why every twelve years, must a core descendant of the Shen family be sent to be eaten by the Dragon God

Because the Shen family's ancestors said that if, twelve years later, the Divine Dragon did not eat the offerings, then it would die.

It's dead, unpunished — but after its death, the Shen family will also die.

All die!

All those who carry the blood of the Shen family, flowing through their veins, must die.

"Before technology advanced, our ancestors already knew that there was something strange hidden in the blood of our Shen family. You could call it poison, or you could just call it anything else."

After saying this, Shen Mingqing closed his eyes slightly before continuing, “It is precisely these things that allow the Shen family to perform exceptionally well in that area, keeping us all in excellent health.”

Later, with the advancement of medical technology, people could use advanced instruments to determine blood type. After genetic testing, the Shen family also had their blood tested, hoping to figure out what these poisons were.

But the result left them very disappointed, it was a kind of poison.

Never heard of such a poison.

It was this very poison that mutated their genes, making something so formidable.

The creation of the poison can be traced back to the ancestors of Shen's family who discovered the black hole a thousand years ago.

At that time, he wasn't sleeping near a black hole and having a beautiful dream, dreaming of having intercourse with something, was he

That thing, it was a giant python.

Female python.

Who says a python can't do that with a person

Well, since someone insists on saying that pythons can't do what they do with humans, then let them say so. Anyway, the Shen family believes it, they believe it's a fact, not a story.

The Shen family's ancestors, after being pushed back by a giant python, when they paid tribute to it, naturally received the python's most precious essence.

How was the original HIV transmitted

Then, what was strange about Shen's ancestors after being pushed back by the giant python and wearing some kind of terrifying virus

Because of the poisoning, Shen's ancestor's

body experienced a significant change in a particular area.

As for how the Hancheng Shen family later became favored by the princess and rose to prominence, that's all irrelevant now.

Importantly, the Shen family's ancestors, after possessing a certain talent, discovered in horror that every twelve years, if they did not obtain something from the giant python, they would be poisoned to death.

After countless years of exploration and sacrifice, the Shen family ancestors discovered that the divine dragon, a giant python that changed the fate of the Shen family, was actually an unusual hermaphrodite.

It needs both men and women.

If there were no men from the Shen family to be ravaged by it every twelve years, absorbing that thing, it would die.

From a scientific perspective, after Shen Jia's first ancestor first interacted with the Dragon God, it treated the Shen family as its permanent source of viral life.

It must rely on a certain protein of the direct male line of the Shen family to dissolve the virus within the body.

Similarly, as it absorbs these things, it also discharges some things to "feedback" the Shen family who also need antidote.

It's a win-win situation, I suppose.

No matter what, if the Shen family wants to live in harmony with the giant python and continue to thrive for generations to come, then they must "cooperate sincerely."

Actually, over the centuries, men who were offered as sacrifices weren't killed by being bitten by giant pythons.

...but died a living wrist, bestowed by fate.

Only after they die will the pythons strike, feeding on them while their blood is still fresh.

In order to completely break this curse, the Shen family didn't know what sacrifices they had made. They finally knew where hope lay—it was necessary to use a direct female member of the Shen family to worship the giant python.

When a python accepts a female member of the Shen family, it will also mate with her.

When the python is with Shen Jia, the medicine it expels when with a male is different from that when with a female. When with a female, it will expel what Shen Jia desires to have once and for all.

That thing was a highly potent love philter sachet, which is what people in folklore call a snake spirit.

Shen Mingqing slowly said: "We only have to get the sachet, use it as a medicinal引子 and take medicine, shroud the shadow of the Shen family for hundreds of years, will it dissipate. And the giant python without the sachet will also die because of this."

As he said this, the eerie howling from the speakers grew louder.

This proves that the giant python is about to emerge from the black hole.

The Shen Yun within the display is no longer crying.

This is a strong girl.

She knew that in this situation, crying served no purpose other than to represent weakness.

Though she was well aware that relying on the bamboo tube in her hand to overcome the imminent danger was nothing more than a pipe dream.

But besides that, what else could she do

She was unable to. For the moment she was born, she was bestowed with the greatest mission of all.

Shen Mingqing's voice, at this time, became incredibly aged: "But our ancestors throughout the ages have yearned, yearned, for a thousand years, they never longed for a girl."

Modern scientific research has proven that men's chromosomes play a crucial role in determining the sex of their offspring.

The Shen family men have a strong, stubborn gene, so strong that it prevents women from giving birth to daughters.

Without the birth of a female member, the Shen family would forever be shrouded in the shadow of tragedy. Every twelve years, a direct descendant would be offered as a sacrifice to appease the monstrous and painful entity.

To reduce this intangible lethargy, generations of patriarchs simply deluded themselves, claiming that no girls had been born in the past century. By saying so, they gave people a strong psychological suggestion, as if a girl would be born in the next century to save the Shen family.

Shen Mingqing suddenly chuckled silently, and then looked at the display screen again, excitedly saying: "After thousands of years, the wishes of all our ancestors have finally come true in my generation! Chenmo, do you still remember how happy I was when Yun was born"

How could Shen Cunmo not remember

More than twenty years ago, Shen Yun was born during a heavy snowfall. The weather was bitterly cold, and her father walked barefoot for a day and night from Hancheng to the Canglong Mountain.

Your fifth younger brother has made great contributions to the Shen family.

Shen Mingqing raised his hand and heavily patted his son's shoulder. In his old eyes, a deep pain surfaced, and he murmured: "It is precisely because he has Yun that he can be treated as a sacrifice, to appease the giant python."

Shen Mingqing did this according to his family's ancestral precepts.

When the Shen family finally had a girl born, her father had to be sacrificed to the Dragon God.

Why does it have to be him

Because he was able to give birth to a daughter, it proved that his chromosome composition had finally changed.

Hearing this, Shen Cunmo couldn't help but ask: "Why didn't you use force to kill the python when it appeared and take out the sachet Why did you have to sacrifice Yun"

"Use force"

Shen Mingqing's face suddenly turned dark, and his eyes narrowed at his son.

"Please, please forgive me, Father."

Shen Cunmao realized he had spoken out of turn and hurriedly bowed to apologize.

"It's none of my business. I just felt the danger of the Shen family being wiped out after hearing you say that."

Shen Mingqing's face eased slightly, and he said softly, "We can't use force. Because using force when cutting open the python's belly would frighten it, causing the sachet to break prematurely. Once the sachet breaks, the medicine's effect will be completely lost in an instant. So, we can only let the python give birth naturally. Only then can we use it as a bait, and thus completely solve the virus."

"That's how it is."

Shen Cunmo only then understood, raising his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.

Before he could finish his words, Shen Mingqing suddenly thought of something: “However, according to the ancestral records passed down through generations, there is a record of someone who could use their martial arts to cut open a giant python's belly and take out an incense pouch unharmed.”

"Huh"

Shen Cunmo was immediately jolted and asked urgently, "Who is that person"

"A man with a black dragon hidden within his body, able to regain youth after descending from the dark world."

Shen Mingqing slowly finished speaking, then shook his head: “But in the world, how could there be such a person”
