Report

The height of the cave was no less than three feet. Liu Xiaobei, who was already unconscious, fell heavily onto the ground. He grimaced in pain and woke up.


Following that, he coughed and spat out a few mouthfuls of lake water.


"F * ck, I fell to my death." He woke up and gasped for air. It took him a while to breathe normally.


It was the first time he could breathe. It was wonderful.


He felt alive. He started to look around and his eyes widened. Three meters above his head, there was a two-meter wide cave entrance. There was a pearl of the same size embedded in the cave entrance.


It looked sparkling and sparkling. It could emit a strange power that could prevent the main pool water from seeping in.


"Could it be … could it be a Water Repellent Pearl?" Soon, Liu Xiaobei thought of a possibility. Only the legendary Water Repellent Pearl had the power to avoid the lake water.


"F * ck, could it be that the legendary thing really exists?" Liu Xiaobei looked at the Water Repellent Pearl and exclaimed.


He started to look around the cave quickly. He realized that this cave was not as simple as it looked.


The cave entrance had the legendary Water Repellent Pearl. The first thing he thought about was whether there were other treasures in the cave.


He looked around carefully. The first thing he noticed was that there was a cave that extended into the distance. It was winding and he didn't know how deep it was. He could only see the first turn.


Even though it was just a turn, it was still more than 30 meters away from the cave entrance.


However, the light inside was getting dimmer. With his eyesight, he couldn't see clearly, let alone after going through the turn.


Driven by curiosity, he stood up and slowly felt his way into the cave.


The light inside was very dim. However, after getting used to it, he could vaguely see the situation inside the cave.


After passing through the first 30-meter bend, there was still a winding cave in front of them.


The cave seemed to have been excavated by humans. It was about two meters in diameter. Liu Xiaobei sat inside and didn't need to lower his head and bend over. It could easily accommodate him.


After thinking for a moment, he continued to move forward. As he gradually went deeper and turned a corner, Liu Xiaobei estimated that he had advanced more than 200 meters when he suddenly stopped in his tracks.


At the same time, he stopped breathing and his expression was extremely ugly.


After turning a corner, they arrived at the bottom of the mountain. There was a spacious cave hall.


However, this was not the main point. The main point was that he saw a terrifying creature.


It was a big snake, a big snake with a mouth as thick as a bowl. The big snake was covered in black scales and had two horns on its head. Liu Xiaobei had never seen such a big head and such a strange appearance.


However, judging from its appearance, it was sleeping soundly. Liu Xiaobei felt that it was a huge snake, a deadly snake.


It was as thick as the mouth of a bowl. Even though it was coiled up and its length could not be seen, its coiled body was like a small mountain. Even if Liu Xiaobei used his butt to think, he knew that he could not afford to provoke this thing. If it woke up, it could kill him in a matter of seconds.


Because of fear, Liu Xiaobei's body was already trembling uncontrollably. The first thing he thought of was to escape.


He began to retreat with light steps. Unfortunately, he accidentally stepped on a pebble, which made a cracking sound.


It scared Liu Xiaobei a lot. He quickly looked at the big snake and was almost scared out of his wits.


Because of this, the big snake woke up. Its huge head was staring at him, making his hair stand on end.


It was really not a good thing to be stared at by such a big snake.


Without thinking about anything, he turned around and ran. He wanted to escape quickly. He wanted to jump into the lake from the entrance of the cave and swim up. That way, he would be able to escape.


After running two steps, he heard the wind behind him. He looked back and saw that the big black snake had also caught up.


His speed was much, much faster than his running speed.


By the time he reacted, the big black snake had already caught up to him. It opened its huge head and bit Liu Xiaobei's thigh in the blink of an eye.


Liu Xiaobei let out a blood-curdling scream. He could feel the intense pain spreading from his thigh.


It was as if something had been injected into his body from the big black snake's fangs.


That thing was boiling hot and spreading throughout his body. The intense pain was like peeling off his nerves. He only lasted for a second or two before he fainted from the pain.


His body fell to the ground with a thud.


The big black snake let go of Liu Xiaobei. Its huge head flicked its black snake tongue and lingered around him for a while. Then, it turned around and crawled back to the bottom of the cave.


It settled down here and continued to sleep …


As time passed, Liu Xiaobei did not wake up. His body was indeed undergoing a strange change. His body was drenched in sweat, and it could be seen that his body temperature was extremely high. The sweat evaporated and turned into a thick mist.


Liu Xiaobei fainted for three days.


When he woke up this time, it was already three days later.


"Phew …"


He let out a long breath and slowly sat up. He looked at his surroundings in a daze. He seemed to have forgotten what had happened before.


After a long time, he suddenly thought of something. He looked at his thigh and saw the four thumb-sized holes in his pants.


He touched them and did not feel any pain at all?


He clearly remembered that the big black snake had bitten his thigh, but it did not hurt now. It was as if he had never been injured.


He quickly rolled up his pants and was surprised to find that there was a shallow scar on his thigh. However, the wound had already healed.


"What the hell is going on?" Liu Xiaobei thought to himself. He had no idea what had happened.


However, the next moment, he let go of this thought. Since he was not dead, how could he waste any more time here?


He had regained his life, so he had to hurry up and escape. He now thought that he was not eaten by the big snake. Perhaps it was because he was not hungry. If he stayed here and the big snake was hungry, wouldn't it be tragic?


Thinking of this, the first thing he did was to run out of the cave quietly.


Although he wanted to run, he was afraid that he would make a sound and alert the big black snake. Therefore, he was very anxious and moved very quietly.


Fortunately, he ran all the way to the cave entrance and did not see the big black snake chasing after him.


Liu Xiaobei heaved a sigh of relief. He looked at the top of the cave and then looked around. He found that he could climb to the cave entrance through the uneven rock wall and then leave by diving into the lake.


However, he was thinking about escaping with the Water Repellent Pearl. This was a legendary treasure. It would definitely be worth a lot of money.
