Chapter 184 Let Me Go
Originally, Sang Mo followed Aning into the Devil City with the intention of saving Aning from bloodshed.
What he didn't expect was that...he was forced to go through the plot.
As they fled in a panic, the four of them didn't know where they were going. Anyway, they entered the Devil City and seemed to have lost their way.
Sang Mo, "......"
Now they are hiding in a cave.
[Speaking of which, according to the plot hint, Aning and Wu Xie were also hiding in a cave. Aning cut her palm and let the blood stain her clothes, then threw them out to lure away the group of corpse-bugs. 】
[If blood is seen, won’t all my efforts to stabilize the city be wasted? 】
[Forget it, let me do it, although I don’t know if my blood will have a counterproductive effect. 】
Hei Xia Zi and Wu Xie heard the inner voice. The former took off his black leather jacket swiftly, took out the dagger attached to his leg bag and stabbed his own palm, then rubbed the dagger on his leather jacket, wrapped it up into a ball and threw it away.
Wu Xie, "..."
Sang suddenly raised his eyebrows.
Aning also raised her eyebrows and praised, "As expected of Mr. Hei."
Wu Xie suddenly felt as if he was being hinted at, but no one noticed his expression.
Sang Mo felt strange, and had the illusion that Hei Xia Zi had taken Aning's script. Maybe it was because it was Hei Xia Zi who took action, and Wu Xie did not speak up to stop him?
But no matter which one it was, the swarm of corpse-eating bugs was indeed attracted away by the bloody leather jacket, and he sat on the ground and took two breaths.
[Although I don’t know if this hole is the one where Aning and Wu Xie hid in the plot hint, I did passively go through the plot. 】
[Damn, is Wu Xie so evil? 】
Wu Xie, "..."
He touched his nose slightly embarrassedly, and the next second he heard Sang Mo's disgusted voice.
[You can't stay with evil people. Your luck is already bad, and if you stay with evil people, you will have a double bad luck buff! 】
Wu Xie, “!!!”
Come on, don't dislike him so much!
Although he also wanted to stay away from Sang Mo, staying away from him was one thing, and being disliked by Sang Mo was another.
Just as I thought of this, I saw Sang Mo move back, lean against the earth wall, take out a bottle of water and start drinking.
Wu Xie suddenly felt a little self-destructive, as if Sang Mo had stabbed him in the heart again.
Perhaps noticing their gazes, he took out three bottles of water and threw them to them, "You won't die of hunger or thirst."
Anyway, Hei Xia Zi and the others knew that he had such means. As for Aning, it was the first time he saw it, but he had seen such magical means as blood transformation before. Aning did not show any surprise and accepted it calmly.
She unscrewed the bottle cap and took a few big gulps of water, which finally relieved the dryness in her mouth. Then she sat there in a daze.
In fact, it’s easy to imagine what the situation was in the temporary camp. All the corpse-bugs swarmed out. Except for them who escaped, the others must have met with an accident.
But she still had some hope in her heart, hoping that someone was still alive.
I don’t know what the situation is in the camp. I hope nothing happened to Wu Laosi and the others, right?
I was lost in thought, and no one spoke to interrupt the peaceful silence of the rest of my life after escaping.
Hei Xia Zi was also recovering his strength for a short time after drinking the water, but who knew that the pottery jar would suddenly be broken.
In fact, only one corpse-bug flew out when the jar was broken, but Jesse was entangled by the corpse-bug and broke other pottery jars in a panic.
This resulted in more and more corpse-bugs being released, and a large group of them were chasing after them, so they had no choice but to run!
Hei Xia Zi still hasn't figured it out. Even if there were only a dozen corpse-bugs in the dozen or so pottery jars that were broken, how come there were hundreds or thousands of corpse-bugs chasing them?
He glanced at Wu Xie on the side with a hidden look in his eyes. Perhaps it was just like what Sang Mo complained, as long as there are weird people, all kinds of weird things will happen.
The only explanation is that the Corpse-Eating King summoned the Corpse-Eating...
Wu Xie is still giving up on himself.
Half an hour later, the four people who had finished resting were ready to leave the cave. When they came out, they found that the sun had set and only some fiery clouds were still illuminating the sky.
Aning glanced at the sky and said, "We need to find a place to stay, and we also need supplies. I think we should go back to the temporary camp first."
She is not the kind of person who just opens her mouth to ask for things, and she knows very well that she can only survive if she has what she has in her hands.
Even though she had a good relationship with Sang Mo, if she got separated from Sang Mo, she would have no supplies and would starve to death or die of thirst in this devil city or even in the desert.
Besides, she also needed to go back to check the situation and confirm the results.
If she died, she should also prepare a simple burial place for the men she brought with her.
Since we can't bring back the body, this is the only thing we can do.
Sang Mo glanced at her and guessed that she might be worried about Aken and the others. He nodded in agreement, "Okay, let's go back."
He never asked Hei Xia Zi and Wu Xie what they thought. Their thoughts were not within his consideration. He only focused on Aning, the partner with Qilin blood who was transformed by him.
The four of them returned by the same route relying on their memory, but when they said they were relying on memory, they didn't pay much attention to the surrounding route while they were running.
As they walked, they seemed to be lost again. Sang Mo looked at Aning who was leading the way in front of him and said, "If you can't lead the way, get out of the way. I'll do it."
He doesn't know the way, but the evil spirit does!
The evil spirit whispered in his ear, "You should have turned left at that corner just now, but she turned right, so of course you couldn't get out."
"Master, if you go back now, you can not only return to the ancient ship, but also avoid the swarm of corpse-bugs. I can smell it, and their scent is still far away."
So, with Sang Mo leading the way, or actually the evil spirit leading the way, it took them more than an hour to return to the temporary camp in front of the ancient ship.
Looking at his men lying on the ground in a mess, Aning, who was used to seeing life and death, also felt a little sad.
Aken and Jesse were the ones who had followed her the longest. Whether it was the Seven Star Palace of Lu, the Undersea Tomb, or the Cloud Top Palace, Aken and Jesse had walked out alive with her.
Unexpectedly, this time he was caught in the Devil City, and at the hands of a group of corpse-eating bugs.
Although Aken's body had not been found yet, there was no living person in the temporary camp. Aning went to move the body, while Sang Mo searched around for other people's bodies.
Hei Xia Zi nudged Wu Xie's arm with his elbow and said, "Why are you still standing there? Help move them together so that we can bury them later."
Wu Xie was not standing there stupidly. He simply couldn't accept the sight of so many people he knew turning into lifeless corpses lying motionless on the ground in a short period of time. He was in a very low mood.
This was reminded by Hei Xia Zi, and he took a deep breath and started to move people.
Sang Mo looked around but couldn't find Aken's body. A Ning didn't find it either. She asked uncertainly, "Could it be that Aken is still alive?"
The absence of the body could only mean that Akon had also escaped.
Ah Ning said: "I hope he is still alive."
Then she picked up a Luoyang shovel and started digging a hole, intending to bury the bodies of Jesse and others on the spot.
Wu Xie said: "Zhaxi is not here either."
There were only six bodies, two of whom were Lao Suo and the other man they had rescued from the ancient ship.
Both Tashi and Aken are temporarily missing.
Hei Xia Zi thought for a moment and said, "Maybe he was saved temporarily because he was in a coma."
The knocked unconscious Zhaxi was not attacked by the corpse-bugs. When Zhaxi wakes up and finds out what happened, he will definitely choose to escape.
This guess is reasonable.
Sang Mo picked up the Luoyang shovel to help dig the hole.
[At least she found a place for me to dispose of the body when I disposed of it. She is actually a very loyal person. 】
