Chapter 1355: Brother Lang is numb!
Lin Lang's arm was being shaken by Xiao Qing; her little hands were icy cold, a temperature clearly not that of a human.
The cool fragrance emanating from Xiaoqing was unlike any other scent in the mortal world; it was crisp and clear, yet also carried a hint of eerie sweetness.
Lin Lang, increasingly intoxicated by the scent, didn't want to be seduced, so he subconsciously activated his [Extraordinary Breath Holding] anaerobic survival skill. After holding his breath, his mind immediately became much clearer.
"Young master, do not be afraid," Bai Suzhen's voice was much gentler than before, "Although Xiaoqing and I are snake demons, we have never harmed anyone."
My stumbling upon this place was purely by chance; it wasn't an intentional act of entanglement.
"It's not that I'm afraid of you snake demon sisters."
“My wives and concubines are all mortal women, and they would be afraid, so I should keep my distance from you two snake spirits to prevent anything from happening.”
Seeing that Lin Lang's expression softened, Xiao Qing took advantage of the situation and pressed almost half of her body against him.
Her eyes sparkled as she stared at Lin Lang:
"Young master, since you know that my sister and I are snake demons, you should know that our magic is very powerful and can protect you. If anyone dares to bully you, I will spray a mouthful of poison mist at them, and they will die on the spot!"
As she spoke, she deliberately stuck out her tongue, which was slightly longer than normal and had a slightly glossy sheen, making Lin Lang's scalp tingle.
Lin Lang quickly pushed Xiao Qing's hand away, stood up, and stepped back three paces, politely declining:
"You don't need to protect me!"
In 2007, there were no demons or monsters, only police and the law; you didn't need to use poison gas.
"You've come with me. I'll see you to the end, escort you downstairs, and then you can go experience your new world. From now on, the three of us will live separate lives."
Upon hearing this, Bai Suzhen's willow-leaf eyebrows furrowed slightly.
Sunlight streamed through the glass, casting a soft glow on her white dress, making her appear even more ethereal and beautiful.
"Young master, Xiaoqing and I are unfamiliar with your dynasty. Wouldn't you do us a favor and show us around 2007 so we can get acquainted with this dynasty?"
She looked at Lin Lang, her eyes full of tenderness and dependence, and most of her shyness from before had faded away.
Xiaoqing also joined in, pouting like a wronged child, and pleaded pitifully, "Young master, you are the only person we sisters know in Xia Kingdom, please!"
Looking at the two of them—no, the snake demon sisters—in their soft, coquettish manner, Lin Lang felt a strange decrease in his resistance.
Bai Suzhen is gentle and radiant, while Xiaoqing is lively and charming. They are clearly two snake demons, yet they are both so captivating.
Although Lin Lang had been afraid of snakes since childhood, when faced with these two snake spirits who had transformed into human form, apart from the initial panic, he did not feel much fear. Instead, he felt a little reluctant to let them go amidst their innocent curiosity.
He sighed, first glancing at Zhao Liying, who was still half asleep on the bed, then at the two snake spirit sisters, and finally softened.
"Alright, now I'll give you two snake demons a lesson in modern common sense."
However, once you understand this dynasty and possess the knowledge to fake your way through modern society, you are no longer allowed to bother me.
"Alright! Then I'll trouble you to explain, young master!" Bai Suzhen's long eyelashes trembled slightly with each blink, and the blush on her cheeks still lingered, giving her an indescribable charm.
Xiaoqing was holding Bai Suzhen's arm beside her, her eyes fixed on Lin Lang.
The longing in her eyes was even stronger than before, and her tail swayed quietly under her skirt, making a soft rustling sound as it swept across the floor.
“Young master,” Xiaoqing suddenly spoke, her voice tinged with hesitation, “you still haven’t told us your name.”
Lin Lang lied and said, "My name is Wang Mazi."
Bai Suzhen covered her mouth and laughed, "Young master, why did you choose such an awful name?"
"A name is just a code, it doesn't matter. Do you sisters even want to understand modern society?" Lin Lang just didn't want to tell them his real name, so he made it up on the spot.
"Let me think about it. Then please tell me, young master!"
Bai Suzhen looked up at Lin Lang, her eyes filled with shyness and timidity, and a hint of expectation that she herself was unaware of.
Xiaoqing suddenly asked in confusion, "Young master, you are clearly a living person, so why can't I feel you breathing?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Suzhen realized that Lin Lang's heart was still trembling in his chest cavity, but he had stopped breathing on his own, which was something no ordinary person could do.
Lin Lang said with a sigh, "Isn't this all because you sisters are snake demons? You exude a strange and alluring fragrance. If I keep smelling it, I'll be bewitched by you. I don't want to fall in love with you two vixens."
"It seems that young master is indeed no ordinary person; he can even hold his breath!"
Xiao Qing grinned mischievously, her voice soft and coquettish, her tail swaying merrily under her skirt. She accidentally brushed against Lin Lang's calf, the cool touch making him stiffen.
"Ugh... Miss Qing, could you please put your snake tail away? It's giving me goosebumps again."
Bai Suzhen patted Xiaoqing's hand and scolded her, "Xiaoqing, you're being naughty again."
Xiao Qing smiled sweetly and stuck out her tongue, then stopped her playful antics and quickly retracted her snake tail.
Lin Lang said with a serious expression, "In this world of the Dharma-ending Age, once you expose your identity as snake demons, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Bai Suzhen's voice was filled with gratitude: "Thank you for your kind reminder, young master. We sisters will never do anything reckless."
In Xiaoqing's eyes as she looked at Lin Lang, besides gratitude and curiosity, a quietly budding affection was also creeping into her heart like a vine.
Lin Lang said, "Come with me to the living room. Just in case my girlfriend wakes up, you might scare her into fainting again."
"Okay." Xiaoqing took Bai Suzhen's arm and followed Lin Lang out of the master bedroom and into the spacious living room.
Lin Lang simply moved his finger, and the bedroom door was closed by his mental power.
"Wow, young master, you can actually use magic!" Bai Suzhen exclaimed with a hint of surprise.
Lin Lang walked straight to the coffee table in the living room, sat in the middle of the sofa, and gestured, "Miss Bai, please sit to my left, and Miss Qing, please sit to my right."
Bai Suzhen shyly did as she was told, but she was too embarrassed to sit too close to Lin Lang.
Xiao Qing sat down close to Lin Lang, inhaling his clean, masculine scent, and smiled seductively with narrowed eyes, "Young Master, perhaps you'd like to have two women on your left and one on your right?"
Lin Lang quickly said, "No, no, no, don't misunderstand."
As soon as she finished speaking, a chill swept through the living room. The aura around Bai Suzhen suddenly receded, and her originally slender figure twisted and deformed in an instant.
Before Lin Lang could react, a snow-white shadow darted up in front of him. With the soft sound of clothes slipping off, a giant python, its body pure white and its scales gleaming coldly, was already coiled on the floor next to the sofa.
The snake's head was raised high, larger than an adult's head, and its amber vertical pupils were sharp as blades, scanning its surroundings warily. Its forked tongue moved rapidly in and out, carrying wisps of cold air.
The long snake tail swept gently across the floor, making a rustling sound. Every scale was clearly visible, exuding a chilling eeriness and majesty.
Lin Lang felt a chill run down his spine, and the hairs on his body stood on end instantly.
His childhood fear of snakes overwhelmed him like a tidal wave.
Lin Lang instinctively lunged at Xiao Qing beside him, wrapping his arms tightly around her waist, burying his head almost in the crook of her neck, his voice trembling uncontrollably:
"Miss Bai, what are you doing?"
I already told you I've been terrified of snakes my whole life! Why did you turn back into your original form and scare me like that?!
Xiao Qing was startled when Lin Lang suddenly hugged her.
Her icy skin instantly felt the burning heat from his chest, and the clear, pounding heartbeat, like a drumbeat, that could be heard even through his clothes.
The heartbeat was rapid and powerful, as if it were about to burst out of her chest, and strangely, it gradually overlapped with her own heartbeat.
Xiaoqing felt her cheeks suddenly burn, her ears turned bright red, and even her breathing became a little rapid.
She could clearly feel the strength in Lin Lang's arms.
His cool aura, mixed with a faint scent of sweat from fear, made Xiaoqing's heart flutter, and her originally cold fingertips felt warm.
She gently patted Lin Lang's back, but her gaze held a hint of reproach as she looked at the white snake, her voice soft and anxious:
"Sister, what's wrong?"
Why are you scaring the young master? Have you sensed some danger?
The white snake did not immediately transform back into human form. Its amber vertical pupils moved slowly, finally settling on the edge of the coffee table, where the limited-edition LV handbag with snakeskin pattern was placed.
Her snake head lowered slightly, and her tongue flicked rapidly again, as if confirming something.
Then, she let out a low hiss, pointing her snake tail at the bag: "Xiaoqing, look, this thing is made of snakeskin, how cruel."
Lin Lang finally recovered from his fear and followed the white snake's gaze, only to discover the limited edition snakeskin LV handbag that he had given to Zhao Liying earlier.
I initially thought this LV handbag was exquisite and rare, and the snakeskin material was very beautiful, so I specially bought it and gave it to Zhao Liying.
After figuring out why Bai Suzhen had reverted to her original form, Lin Lang was both amused and exasperated. He quickly released his grip on Xiao Qing, reached for the snakeskin LV handbag, opened the coffee table drawer, and hurriedly stuffed it inside.
Then, Lin Lang looked at the white snake coiled on the ground and said awkwardly:
"Miss Bai, don't be angry."
It's just a bag made of snakeskin.
In our time, there are people who specialize in raising snakes to sell their venom, gallbladders, and skins for profit. It's not really a matter of cruelty or not, so don't take it to heart.
Xiaoqing's blush hadn't faded yet; she gently tugged at Lin Lang's sleeve and whispered:
“Young master, my sister is kind-hearted and cannot bear to see her own kind being exploited like this. Please do not blame her.”
The white snake remained in its original form, its head swaying slightly, its eyes still showing a hint of reluctance, and its tongue occasionally flicking out, as if it was still troubled by the snakeskin bag.
The next second, Bai Suzhen transformed back into human form.
With red-rimmed eyes, she blinked her wet gaze at Lin Lang, and said in a pitiful and coquettish tone, "How can you humans be so cruel?"
Faced with Bai Suzhen's pitiful accusations, Lin Lang couldn't help but want to laugh.
In Lin Lang's view, this scene was like Bai Suzhen saying: "The rabbit is so pitiful, how can you eat it?"
Waaaaah!
At this moment, Lin Lang finally understood how adorable Bai Suzhen was.
