Chapter 873: Scheming against each other
Qin Jin, sensing something was wrong, quickly stood up, called out to Zhang Qing and Li Guang, and walked towards Cheng Qi. However, when he got closer, he found that Cheng Qi's clothes were already soaked with black blood.
The smell of rotting zombies wafted faintly from his body. It was a smell unique to zombies, the smell of their cores that could not be changed no matter how many times he took a shower.
It is said that higher-level zombies are less likely to suffer external injuries. This situation immediately made Qin Jin alert, especially after checking that several mutant giant wolves and little monkeys had small wounds on their bodies.
"They didn't notice any injuries on their bodies, and there was no sign of danger around them, so I had no choice but to take them away."
He spoke in a flat tone and never mentioned his surprise that he hadn't seen Lu Weiyi again. He was also worried that something had happened to Lu Weiyi because he couldn't communicate with the mutant giant wolf.
"Are you okay?" Lu Weiyi looked at him.
"I'm fine, it's probably a bug or something. I guess it has a leech-like effect, paralyzing the affected area while creating a wound." Seeing Lu Weiyi immediately stand up and walk towards the three mutant giant wolves, not caring that they were eating, Qin Jin hurriedly stopped him, "Wolves are food-protecting animals. If you go over there at this time, they will think you are trying to steal their food and will turn around and bite you."
"They are fine now. Xu Xiao helped them recover from their injuries."
"Let me see if it's some kind of parasite. We've seen insects laying eggs in the human body before. The insects grow directly in the human body. You should ask them to check it carefully again." Lu Weiyi had already arrived in front of the three mutant giant wolves. He took out three more bloody pieces of raw meat from the space and threw one in front of each of them, communicating with them directly with his consciousness.
"Check each other again," Qin Jin reminded a few people and walked in front of Lu Weiyi. The size difference between the two was too great, and he was afraid that if he wasn't careful, Lu Weiyi would be swallowed by them.
Lu Weiyi couldn't say that he had communicated with them directly, so he just said casually, "They are at home when they drink milk, so their habits may be a little different."
"It's quite a coincidence." Qin Jin sighed when he saw the three of them lying on the ground with blood in their mouths, but they allowed Lu Weiyi to check their limbs.
With the three of them around, they really saved a lot of energy along the way. Even if they occasionally encountered mutant animals, they didn't need to take action at all. The three little ones alone could easily deal with them.
Lu Weiyi explored the area and found nothing unusual, but this did not reassure him. After all, the place they were in was a strange place.
He did not stop and looked at Qin Jin, and saw that Qin Jin was looking at the little monkey who was eating.
The best food generally made by the field army is barbecue, and Qin Jin’s is naturally not bad either. It looks quite good, and the little monkey shook his head while eating.
Seeing that he was also very interested, Qin Jin raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you want to try it? I specially put honey in it."
"Okay, this is the first time I eat something you made." Lu Weiyi took it as if nothing had happened, but what he was thinking about was the baking process of Qin Jin just now. He clearly remembered that Qin Jin sprinkled white powder on it, how could it be honey.
This made him suspicious of the people in front of him, "Ask them if they have found anything unusual, let's prepare and find a way out."
Qin Jin nodded and walked towards Zhang Qing, Li Guang and the others. Lu Weiyi took advantage of the opportunity when the other party turned around to quickly put the things into the space, and threw the wooden stick into the fire as if nothing had happened.
"Stop eating, let's leave here first." Lu Weiyi shouted to the four mutant animals to get up. He looked around and it seemed like they had entered a primitive jungle. The surrounding mountains were endless and there was no end in sight.
Combined with the scene he saw when he came here before, Lu Weiyi seriously suspected that this might be an illusion caused by the influence on their brains. However, if there were high-level creatures, he should not be unaware of it. But if the level was low, it would not affect him, an SSS-level psychic.
"Have you finished eating? How does it taste?" Qin Jin, who came with a few rested zombies, was surprised at the empty hands.
"Maybe my skills have regressed and my experience is not important," Lu Weiyi said casually, and he saw Qin Jin looking at him thoughtfully, which made him immediately alert.
But Qin Jin didn't continue, instead he talked about the current predicament, "Do you have any ideas?"
Lu Weiyi used his mental power to explore the surroundings, but didn't find anything unusual. He looked at him and said, "Maybe, but I may need your cooperation."
"Me?" Qin Jin pointed at himself.
Lu Weiyi nodded, and Qin Jin looked at him for a moment, as if asking something silently. After a long while without getting a response, he thought for a while and nodded, "Okay, I'll cooperate with you."
"Don't worry, I will ensure your safety."
The corner of Qin Jin's mouth twitched, indicating that he could start.
Lu Weiyi took out a blindfold from the space and handed it to Qin Jin, "I suspect something here has affected our five senses."
"How can you block the five senses of a zombie with just a blindfold?" Qin Jin looked at him as if he was a fool.
"Don't forget what kind of superpower I have." Lu Weiyi stuffed the blindfold into Qin Jin's arms.
Cheng Qi immediately stepped forward and said, "King, let me do it."
"I can do it too," Li Guang responded, and several other zombies also stepped forward, looking like they could do it for him.
"It's you, stop wasting time." Lu Weiyi patted Qin Jin's shoulder, signaling him to hurry up.
Qin Jin adjusted the blindfold slowly and then put it on slowly. Before putting it on, he glanced at the zombies, causing several of them to step back silently. Zhang Qing even hid farthest away, fearing that he would get burned by accident.
After Qin Jin put it on, he felt as if a rope was wrapped around him, and Lu Weiyi's voice came from behind him, "I'm behind you, walking in the straight line you think it is."
"good".
A blindfold really had no effect on Qin Jin. Qin Jin didn't take it seriously at all. He strolled leisurely past the intertwined trees in front of him without even touching any of them.
The few zombies that followed Lu Weiyi silently looked towards Lu Weiyi, and saw that the man was staring at Qin Jin seriously, as if he didn't notice anything.
Li Guang looked at Cheng Qi inquiringly, and the other party shook his head. A few people followed silently at the end.
It was not until more than half an hour later that Qin Jin's direction of travel began to change. He deviated little by little from the place they knew, and kept moving to the right. His pace gradually quickened, and he even passed through a tree as thick as an arm.
To the surprise of the crowd, he suddenly stopped and black flames suddenly burned around his body and rushed in all directions. The body could not feel the heat wave, but the color alone made people know the danger.
Seeing the flames rushing towards them, the invisible barrier around them rose up little by little, eventually forming a sealed space that protected several zombies and mutant animals.
Outside the invisible barrier, black flames covered them like a sticky, substantial liquid. The few people standing there did not move, and the timid Xu Xiao had already squatted on the ground and huddled into a ball.
At this moment, the three mutant giant wolves and the little monkey who had been looking around vigilantly fell to the ground, howling weakly. A clear smell of blood and the stench of zombies could be smelled in their nostrils.
His heart skipped a beat and he looked at the zombies that had been following them. He saw that their legs were covered with blood holes, exactly the same as the situation in the middle of the night.
But they have been cured?
"What's going on?" Cheng Qi asked Lu Weiyi.
Lu Weiyi soothed the mutant giant wolf's head with a serious expression, and looked towards the center of the fire, "Something has affected your five senses."
As the flames gradually dissipated, the surrounding environment changed completely. The endless mountains and trees that they had seen disappeared, and were replaced by bare ground after being burned, and corn stalks rushing towards the distance in all directions?
"Is that... a mutated plant?" After Cheng Qi was surprised, he saw Qin Jin lying on the ground with his eyes closed, his life or death unknown. He took two quick steps to check out the situation, but Lu Weiyi, who was faster, got there first and said, "You watch them."
Knowing that this might be because he was worried about him, Cheng Qi did not get closer and turned back to check on Zhang Qingji's condition. Over there, Lu Weiyi had already stuffed a black crystal core into Qin Jin's arms. Qin Jin, with a pale face, looked at him with cold eyes, as if the emotions belonging to the zombie side that had been suppressed for a long time were also magnified. His face was gloomy and the hostility in his eyes was enough to overwhelm people.
It’s a pity that Lu Weiyi on the opposite side didn’t care at all, “Hurry up and absorb it. You can’t beat me even if you use up all your energy, and…”
He looked around and said, "It seems our crisis has not been resolved yet."
Qin Jin let out a chuckle from his throat, his nails were covered with a dangerous layer of black, and he reached out to Lu Weiyi. Lu Weiyi immediately jumped one meter away and threw the crystal core in his hand to him.
Qin Jin closed his eyes and absorbed it. Only then did Lu Weiyi have time to look around. They were indeed in the cornfield he had seen before, but it was completely destroyed by the full force of Qin Jin's SSS fire ability. The ground was no longer a soft field, but had a glass-like texture. The ground was smooth and unobstructed, and if you were not careful when walking on it, you would feel like you were walking on slippery ice. This made the three mutant giant wolves stand up and try, then lie back on the ground, humming aggrievedly at Lu Weiyi from a distance.
The little monkey following behind them didn't care about his bloody legs at all. Instead, he sat down on the side, coughing and spitting out something.
This was the first time that Lu Weiyi saw a monkey coughing. The "Puh, Puh" sound sounded no different from that of a human. Seeing that he vomited out pieces of raw meat, Lu Weiyi immediately took out the skewers of meat that he had put into the space before. As expected, not only were they all raw and stained with blood, but they were also covered with white particles, which were not honey at all.
He took this meat out from the space. Since it has not changed, the seasoning Qin Jin took out from the space must be fine. It can only mean that he did not put honey in it from the beginning.
So what he told them was honey?
Lu Weiyi turned his head to look at Qin Jin who was absorbing energy, suspecting that he might have discovered something as well and tried again.
When the test was put to himself, Lu Weiyi curled his lips. He was indeed not a good person. Fortunately, he was using him as an example. They were all the same, and he couldn't say anything about himself later.
Lu Weiyi was very happy with the idea, and he solemnly put the skewer of meat back into the space as evidence, and then asked what happened to the little monkey.
It's not that it can't eat raw meat, so it wouldn't react so quickly.
