But the situation outside the space is different.
A rich young lady suddenly screamed and stood up on the spot with a look of horror and panic.
All the monks were interrupted, and Master Qing Yuan opened his eyes.
The emperor was furious and was about to scold them, but many young ladies started shouting loudly.
Soon after, more and more people screamed, and someone in a corner quickly stood up and left his seat, retreating to the side in fear.
At this time, a eunuch came over hurriedly and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, something happened over there!"
The emperor frowned and said unhappily: "What happened?!"
"This..." The eunuch hesitated, not knowing what to say.
Master Qing Yuan stood up at this moment, looking calmly in the direction of the accident, and said, "Let's go over and take a look."
Seeing that Master Qingyuan was not angry, the emperor naturally did not want to lose his temper. He took the queen and several concubines with him and followed Master Qingyuan.
When the onlookers saw the emperor coming, they subconsciously dispersed.
When the queen and several concubines saw the scene in front of them through the crowd, they screamed in fear.
But they were concubines, so compared to those rich girls who knew the rules better, even though they were very frightened, they did not dare to scream loudly. After a cry of surprise, they immediately covered their mouths.
The emperor did not expect such a scene. He was shocked and his face turned pale.
Duan Qingxi was still meditating in the same place. There didn't seem to be anything wrong with his expression, but he didn't move at all, like a sculpture.
However, her body was covered with many long snakes of various colors, which looked so dense that they almost wrapped around her entire body.
What’s even more terrifying is that there are many snakes crawling towards this side.
They didn't bother anyone, nor did they bite anyone randomly. They just crawled directly towards Duan Qingxi and then wrapped around her.
Some snakes even started biting each other for territory, but they didn't dare to bite Duan Qingxi, as if she was some treasure that could not be harmed.
Because there are differences between men and women, they meditate separately.
This incident happened suddenly. Although it alarmed the emperor, many male relatives continued to meditate obediently, unaware of the situation. Duan Hong and Duan Sijin were sitting together and were unaware of the incident.
When the discussions grew louder, the men on their side finally opened their eyes and asked each other.
Duan Hong and Duan Sijin looked at each other and had a bad feeling in their hearts. Thinking that the emperor and Master Qingyuan had passed by, they also stood up and walked towards that direction.
When Duan Sijin squeezed through the crowd and saw Duan Qingxi entangled by a snake, his face suddenly changed.
"Xi'er!"
Just as he was about to step forward, someone suddenly grabbed his arm.
Su Yuecheng said: "Don't be impulsive! These snakes won't hurt her, but if you go forward to drive them away, you might anger them."
What Su Yuecheng said made sense, and the others naturally thought so too, so they didn't dare to attack the snakes.
After a while, a young lady said in a trembling voice, "But...but we can't just let those snakes entangle me like this forever..."
Duan Qingxi might be asleep now, or she might not wake up for other reasons, but if she woke up, it would still alarm the snakes.
What is even more worrying is that Duan Qingxi's body is covered with densely packed snakes. Does anyone know whether these snakes are poisonous? Will they hurt Duan Qingxi?
Su Yuecheng stared at Duan Qingxi for a long time before saying, "Miss Duan must have been murdered! She has a faint herbal scent about her. That herb is very attractive to snakes, just like sweet rush attracts cats. However, this herb is very rare. I only heard about it from some veterans by chance."
