"This little brother is quite handsome, itās a pity he became a Daoist!"
"Whatās so bad about being a Daoist? Daoists can still get married and have kids."
"Yeah, even monks can have a wife and kids outside, why canāt Daoists?"
"Crap, those bald donkeys are really shameless. By day they chant scriptures as monks, by night they dance in nightclubs."
"Itās just a profession, being a monk is a job, being a Daoist is a job too! How do you know these Daoists arenāt partying and picking up girls after work?"
"Sigh, this is why people say the world is going downhill!"
"This young Daoist has such clear brows and eyes, he looks like heās never tasted meat. Sister Hong, why donāt you try seducing him?"
"Sister Hong, if you can seduce that young Daoist, Iāll reward you with a hundred rockets!"
"Alright, this is a proper livestream, not some outdoor smut stream!"
The livestream room was chaotic, with everyone saying different things.
Sister Hong took one glance and then ignored it.
She looked at the follower count in the stream, which had increased by nearly a hundred thousand compared to before.
The gifts really made her smile with delight.
Making money, thereās nothing shameful about it!
If someone actually rewarded a hundred thousand, sheād really dare to try seducing the little Daoist beside her.
Who told him to be good-looking?
But at this moment, she suddenly felt a chill down her spine.
"Hmm?"
She turned her head around full of confusion, but there were just some regular tourists and worshippers behind her.
Could it be she felt wrong?
Lu Heng observed her strange behavior, thinking the Bad Luck Talisman was starting to take effect.
It was the first time using this Bad Luck Talisman.
He was quite looking forward to just how unlucky it could make someone.
Just as Sister Hong turned her head, she suddenly stepped on a small pebble.
"Ouch!"
Her foot slipped, causing her to lose balance instantly.
Her whole body leaned forward, and she took a face plant right into the ground.
Her phone flew far away, landing in the grass by the path.
"Sister Hong, are you okay?"
Her partner quickly rushed over to help her up.
"Damn it, who the hell pushed me just now?"
Sister Hong wiped her face, her nose was injured.
She suddenly turned her head, eyes wide, angrily questioning.
The surrounding tourists and worshippers all had baffled expressions.
"Sister Hong, no one pushed you just now!"
Her partner explained softly, looking rather awkward.
"No one pushed me?"
"Impossible! How could a single pebble make me fall so hard?"
Sister Hong glared viciously at the passersby around her.
"Are you crazy?"
"Whereās your head at? Who would push you for no reason?"
"Yeah, you think youāre some heartthrob that everyone wants to touch?"
"Youāre just feeling yourself, really think youāre a big deal? Just an internet beggar, whatās there to be smug about?"
"Lady, no one really pushed you just now!"
"Hurry up and get out of the way!"
The passersby around her didnāt have the patience of Taoist Xuancheng.
Especially the worshippers coming up the mountain, they held no regard for Sister Hong.
"You guys..."
Though Sister Hong was bold, she felt a bit intimidated in front of so many people.
She dared to cause a scene in front of the Daoist because she was certain he wouldnāt do anything to her.
And getting into a conflict with the Daoist could give her more fame.
But what good would it do to clash with this group of passersby?
If she got beaten, the most she could get would be some compensation for medical expenses.
"Whoever pushed me better watch out, or Iāll scratch their face up!"
Sister Hong said fiercely and went off to pick up her phone.
Seeing her bluffing posture, everyone snickered coldly.
"Ah!"
Just then, as Sister Hong bent down to pick up her phone, she suddenly let out a piercing scream that echoed over the mountain top.
The sound was so mournful and guttural, yet so heart-rending.
Everyone was stunned.
On Sister Hongās right hand hung a brownish-black little snake.
In a panic, Sister Hong flailed her hand, trying to shake the snake off.
But the harder she shook, the tighter the snake bit.
For a moment, it was a standoff between human and snake.
Seeing this, the viewers in Sister Hongās livestream were dumbfounded.
"Did Sister Hong not check the almanac before going out today? Almost busting her nose just now, and now bitten by a snake?"
"Damn, itās even drawing blood!"
"Whoa, scared the crap out of me!"
"Isnāt this a Five-Step Snake? After being bitten, the bleeding doesnāt stop, and compression bandaging doesnāt usually help, causing widespread bleeding body-wide."
"Right, itās the scientifically named Five-Step Snake or Agkistrodon Koreanensis! These snakes are aggressive with long fangs, their bites are quite severe."
"Itās over, just spit on Lingbao Celestial Venerableās statue, now facing retribution!"
"Haha, cosmic justice, canāt escape karma!"
"Karma? If that exists, why havenāt those exploitative capitalists landed in the Underworld?"
"Probably a coincidence, Dragon Tiger Mountain and nearby areas have lots of wild snakes..."
The viewers werenāt bitten, naturally making cynical comments.
But Sister Hong, who was bitten, was in so much pain that tears were streaming down.
"Why are you all standing around, hurry and help me!"
She jumped in pain, calling around for help.
But no one moved.
Are you kidding? Thatās a poisonous snake!
If weāre not careful and get bitten, wouldnāt we be in serious trouble?
"Sister Hong, hang in there, Iām coming to help!"
Finally, her partner stood up, came forward, and forcefully pried open the snakeās mouth, freeing Sister Hong.
"I canāt take it anymore, the bite hurts so badly!"
"Iām feeling a bit dizzy, quickly call for an ambulance..."
Looking at her continuously bleeding wound, Sister Hongās face turned pale, devoid of color.
However, at this moment, a gust of wind suddenly rose.
A branch of a hundred-year-old tree, shaken by the wind, suddenly fell from above.
The blowing sand blinded everyone, making it hard to see around, and no one warned Sister Hong under the tree.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, the thick branch hit right on Sister Hongās head.
Sister Hong was knocked unconscious instantly, not even having time for a final scream.
"Damn!"
Looking at Sister Hong lying on the ground with rolled-back eyes, the whole place fell silent.
From slipping on a rock, getting bitten by a venomous snake, to being knocked out by a falling tree branch...
The whole ordeal happened in under two minutes.
Under normal circumstances, so many unlucky events couldnāt possibly occur back-to-back like this.
Yet Sister Hong encountered them one after another.
Coincidence? Unlikely!
Could it be...
Karma?
Everyone present felt a chill down their spines.
Could there really be immortals in this world?
Meanwhile, the viewers in Sister Hongās livestream also found themselves dumbfounded.
They hadnāt believed in any talk of immortals, dismissing it as superstitious.
But seeing Sister Hongās three consecutive mishaps, ending in unconsciousness, they began to doubt life itself.
Even the staunch atheists couldnāt help but ask themselves: Can someone really be this unlucky?
