Chapter 364: 365

Hidden Crisis

Despite such words, everyone was even more tense. Then, the forks in front of them multiplied, and the underground path became more complicated. The moss on the ground also kept getting thicker, to the extent that it would make someone slip from time to time.

At this particular moment, they noticed the smell of blood.

Until now, the team with Ye Mu made sure that nothing happened to anyone by their side. This smell of blood definitely didn’t come from among them.

Everyone was silent for a moment. It was Mo Linyuan who said, “Looks like another team faced danger.”

“But how is that possible?” someone said, feeling odd. “The other team has over a hundred people, this underground actually still can threaten them?”

Mo Linyuan said, “Don’t be too anxious, the problem shouldn’t be big. Ye Xiaolang is not an ordinary person, once he discovers a trap, he’ll carry out the most appropriate action.”

He spoke these words to let others hear, but even more for Ye Mu to listen. Ye Mu frowned before nodding. “True, he’s a wolf child! Let’s continue, maybe we’ll run into them soon.”

But after a while, they saw dead bodies collapsed in a disorderly manner on the ground. There were as many as seven or eight people, that many!

“It’s our people!” The people behind Ye Mu rushed over. Regrettably, they found that they were all dead.

“What caused this?” Ye Mu felt unwell. It was only to take a treasure, she never thought people would die.

A few people bent over to check, and found these people had marks of being stabbed. This showed that they had had a chaotic fight, and the other party had a knife!

“Could it be besides us, there is another force here?”

Mo Linyuan and Ye Mu inspected them together for a while. In the end, he and Ye Mu glanced at each other: each of them reached a conclusion.

“They were not killed by an outside force.” Ye Mu stood up with difficulty. “They killed each other!”

“Killed each other? How?” The soldiers next to Ye Mu either revealed a scared or doubtful expression.

Mo Linyuan said, “There’s a reason for what she said. I’ve read from a book before, there is a kind of plant that can create hallucinations. They most likely fell into a similar trap.”

Ye Mu nodded. “I have the same thought. Didn’t everyone prepare a gauze mask and wear it? If there is an unusual smell or someone feels strange, everyone has to report!”

As for these bodies—

Ye Mu said with a heavy heart, “Let’s search this mountain first. After we’re familiar with this place, send people to come take them and bury them outside.”

Everyone was downcast. Someone said under their breath, “We don’t know where the other team’s remaining people went. It would be good if we met them, so we know what happened.”

Ye Mu looked at the moss on the ground layered with chaotic footprints, and was even more perturbed. “We’ll meet them, I feel that many of them have wandered off to our position, let’s continue forward!”

“En.” No one objected to this, since the way back might not necessarily be safe. Finding out what this treasure exactly was would be the most reassuring move.

When they continued on, before they could reach a stone room, someone suddenly came running toward them!

“Who’s there?!”

In that instant, everyone pulled out their knives. And seeing that it was Ye Mu and the rest, the person who came running madly was immediately overjoyed!

“Your Majesty! Ye-xiaojie! Save me!!”

“What’s going on?” Ye Mu saw that this person was with Ye Xiaolang. Seeing that it turned out to be their own comrade, they put down their guard. But Ye Mu still felt unsettled, so she stepped forward and stopped him.

“What about Ye Xiaoling? What did you encounter?”

The person looked flustered, but he appeared not to have sustained a severe wound. At the moment, he was stuttering as he flurriedly explained.

“We didn’t come down for long and immediately encountered yesterday’s centipedes! Because it’s dark down here, it was too late when we found out. Those who were bitten by those centipedes went unconscious and started killing each other. General Ye found it strange and brought the remaining people to run, but there were too many centipedes then. Even if General Ye’s voice was loud, there were still many people who ran wildly toward me, so I also ran! Luckily I met you!”

He was nearly crying tears of joy as he said this! Heaven knows, seeing his own people in this underground made him feel so relieved. Just now in the dark, he ran by himself and was almost compelled by madness!

Ye Mu didn’t expect there were still many of those poisonous insects down here. She frowned and said, “Okay, everyone extinguish the flames, use luminous pearls! Those worms like fire, sprinkle some powder on ourselves, and then put out the torches!”

“Yes!” Everyone complied, and the torches were out. After that, someone among them who was holding the luminous pearl suddenly screamed!

“What happened?!” Some jumped out of their skin and quickly looked at him, but he pointed at that person who just joined them!

“All of you look, look at his face!!”

Everyone looked over. The person himself didn’t know what was on his face, and stretched out his hand out to feel it, while everyone who saw was stunned. Under the cold light of the luminous pearls, his face was swelling. Under the shine of the pearls, those worms slightly glowed, and then slowly moved under his skin. It made the scalps of those who were watching tingle!

“Whathappenedwhyareyoualllookingatmelikethat, what’s on my face?”

His hand touched his own face a few times. It was Ye Mu who turned and walked over to the other party. But before she took several steps, she was pulled by Mo Linyuan. “Don’t go, that thing looks very dangerous.”

Ye Mu shook her head. “It’s all right, I have qi protecting my body, I’m safer than all of you.”

Only those who possessed a sixty-year internal energy could form essential qi to protect the body. It could strengthen the skin, bones and muscles for a short period of time to avoid sustaining an injury.

That person was already terrified from looking at Ye Mu and the others’ expressions; he didn’t dare to move as he stood there.

Ye Mu said, “You, relax a little. Better yet, close your eyes.”

Out of his trust in Ye Mu, he closed his eyes.

And then, Ye Mu’s pocket knife slipped out of her hand in a flash. He nearly didn’t feel any pain as his face was cut open, and two worms were immediately dug out by Ye Mu’s dagger. That person covered his face as he cried out in alarm. He was clueless as to why Ye Mu did that, but when he saw the blood red, distorted worms on the ground, his face instantly went pale!

“These—these were from my face—”

“That’s right.” Ye Mu looked at him with sympathy, and then lowered her head to look at those worms. “Looks like these worms have neurogenic toxins in their body, so you didn’t realize when they got into your body. Once they reach your face, I reckon you will be the same as those people before, starting to massacre each other.”

Ye Mu’s words made everyone shudder with fear. These things were actually this terrifying!
