Reborn as a Snake: Many Children, Many Blessings, Only I, the Green Snake Immortal

Chapter 40 The Uncorrupted Female Corpse! A Ghostly Encounter!

A woman's corpse was lying in the coffin!

Dressed in a bright red wedding robe, she lay quietly in the coffin.

The female corpse, who had been dead for an unknown period of time, was not decayed. Her skin was as smooth and warm as jade, her face was exquisite, and there was a cinnabar mole between her eyebrows.

Judging from her appearance, she is a rare beauty.

She looked as if she had just died; she didn't look like a corpse at all.

The thugs were completely stunned, their eyes fixed on the female corpse, as if they had lost their souls.

The villagers slowly gathered around, and were all shocked when they saw the female corpse in the coffin.

Both men and women couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

What a beautiful woman.

however.

Immediately afterwards, a wave of panic swept through.

An uncorrupted corpse often signifies something evil or malevolent.

The village elders immediately ordered the coffin to be sealed and instructed several able-bodied men to push it back into the Dongjiang River tributary at the village entrance.

Something that alarmed the villagers soon happened.

There seemed to be something underwater; as soon as the coffin fell into the water, it was pushed back onto the shore.

The group tried several more times, but the result was always the same.

Each time, the coffin was pushed back onto the riverbank by the river, as if it were preparing to stay there.

The matter was beyond the villagers' comprehension, leaving them in shock and uncertainty. Some even suggested burning the place to calm their minds.

But the village elders stopped them.

"She has been targeting our village. Her body has been submerged in the water for many years and cannot be laid to rest. She must be carrying resentment and evil spirits. If we help her bury her, we will be safe and sound."

After discussing it for a while, the villagers decided to leave the coffin on the riverbank and bury it on an auspicious day in a couple of days.

three days later.

Everything is ready.

The villagers of Jiangning Village came to the riverbank to prepare for the burial of the woman's body.

Just now.

A child in the crowd pointed at the coffin and said, "Mom, the coffin looks like it's open."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" The woman raised her hand to cover her son's mouth, stopping him from talking nonsense.

But those around couldn't help but take a closer look when they heard this.

It looks incredible.

"It's really open!"

"Look, there's a crack that hasn't been covered properly!"

The villagers immediately noticed the unusual nature of the coffin, and some were astonished and puzzled.

It was clearly sealed, so why was it opened again?

The village chief seemed to have discovered something; his face turned grim, and he immediately ordered someone to push open the coffin lid.

Immediately.

A series of exclamations rang out.

"This is...!?"

The village chief stared wide-eyed at the female corpse inside the coffin in disbelief.

A rosy glow returned to her cheeks, as if she had come back to life.

Most importantly... her belly was slightly bulging, just like a pregnant woman!

How could a corpse be pregnant?

And everything was fine just a few days ago, why did it have to happen now...?

The village chief's face was extremely grim. He turned his head and scanned the villagers, finally fixing his gaze on a few people hiding behind the crowd.

"Was it you guys who did Zhang Laosan?!" the village chief shouted angrily.

Zhang Laosan was one of the thugs who were the first to open the coffin.

He and several of his cronies idled away their days, resorting to underhanded means to make a living.

It was only because they understood the principle of "a rabbit doesn't eat the grass near its burrow" that the villagers tolerated them.

After being pointed out by the village chief, Zhang Laosan and the others turned red in the face.

"Village chief, what nonsense are you spouting!"

"I'm talking nonsense?" The village chief was panting heavily with anger. "I saw you sneaking out in the dark the night before last. Tell me, what were you doing?"

"I was just worried about wild animals coming down from the mountains to forage for food. I went out to check, so don't make false accusations!"

Zhang Laosan and his friends shouted loudly.

But everyone could see their bluster and their guilty conscience.

Upon seeing this scene, I immediately guessed what had happened.

The women looked at each other with disdain, spat, and began to curse.

Suddenly, the village entrance was filled with a noisy and chaotic commotion.

The women in the countryside have incredibly sharp tongues.

After several rounds, Zhang Laosan and his men were defeated and verbally abused.

Therefore.

Their roguish nature kicked in.

"Damn it!" Zhang Laosan drew his hunting knife from his waist, led his men to the coffin, shoved the village chief aside, and roared, "Let me be clear, no one is allowed to touch this beauty!"

Several men behind him also drew their knives and shouted loudly.

"We've never seen such a beauty before. If we could sleep with a new bride like her, it would be worth dying for!"

"Let's see who dares to touch me! I'm just a worthless life anyway, let's see who dares to fight me!"

"You all have families, wives, kids, and warm beds, but I've disliked you for a long time!"

When people's desires are aroused, they often do things that are beyond reason.

Take Zhang Laosan and a few others, for example.

From the moment he saw the female corpse, his soul was captivated.

Lying at home in the middle of the night, looking at the desolate bedside, a wicked thought arose in my heart. I immediately and quietly woke up a few brothers, and we went to the riverbank in the dark.

Then the coffins were opened, and one by one they eagerly crawled inside.

Having tasted the flavor, the group was completely captivated.

Even knowing something was amiss, they couldn't care less.

Now that the village chief has exposed him in public, he's decided to throw caution to the wind and guard the female corpse in the coffin no matter what.

Jiangning Village is home to many hunters, so they are naturally not afraid of fighting.

He drew his sword and nocked an arrow, ready to slaughter these beasts.

The village chief quickly intervened to stop it. It would be too much of a loss to get involved in a murder case and lose one's life for a few beasts.

"Report to the authorities!"

The village chief whispered to a burly man.

The man quietly left, intending to report to the authorities and have them handle the matter.

However, a quarter of an hour later.

"Village chief, something terrible has happened!"

The burly man, his face ashen, rushed over, his eyes filled with terror.

"Why are you back?" the village chief asked, puzzled.

"We can't get out!" the burly man said. "I just went out, walked about a hundred paces, and found myself back in the village!"

"I've tried several times but can't get out... Village chief, this is a ghost wall! Our village is really haunted by a demon!"

The burly man's voice trembled slightly.

They were strong and healthy, and having frequented the mountains and forests, they were well aware of the power of demons and monsters.

Anyone who gets infected will suffer severe damage to their health, or even death and ruin.

If the whole village is now trapped in a maze of ghosts, it could be a disaster that leaves no one alive!

Upon hearing this, everyone panicked and surrounded the old village chief, asking what to do.

The old village chief's face was ashen. He looked at the coffin on the riverbank, a wave of weakness washed over him, and he immediately fainted.

"village head!"

Everyone was shocked and quickly helped him walk back to the village.

At the same time, several hunters rushed forward, quickly knocked down Zhang Laosan and his men, tied them up with ropes, and dragged them towards the village.

As for the female corpse in the coffin, it was too eerie for anyone to touch.

Just as everyone temporarily withdrew...

The woman's abdomen inside the coffin was pulsating slightly, as if a new life was being conceived.

The corners of the female corpse's mouth were pulled upwards, as if... she smiled.

P.S.: (I heard this chapter is a bit scary, it's part of the setup, please bear with it.)
