Those people were also preparing to find a place to rest, but at this moment, the people below suddenly became riotous.
Lin Yi frowned slightly. He saw that the people below seemed to be in great pain.
But there was clearly nothing around.
At this moment, he saw many tiny spots of light slowly falling from the sky, as if a cloud of fine sand had suddenly fallen from the sky!
These light spots are exactly those highly toxic substances!
The fate of these people was as expected. They all fell to the ground in a short while.
Soon, the light spots disappeared, and those people never got up again.
Seeing all this, Lin Yi couldn't help but frown.
He understood why these people were called bait. It turned out that they were meant to die here.
However, Lin Yi still had no idea what these people wanted to do with these baits or what they wanted to lure out.
He decided to keep watching, and just like that, three hours passed in a flash.
At this moment, a dozen people came running from a distance and carried the bodies away.
The direction is towards Sanquan Guild Hall.
Lin Yi remained calm and followed quietly.
Soon, these people moved the corpses over. At this time, Lin Yi noticed that these corpses also emitted that kind of light spots.
The scene was as if hundreds of fireflies were placed in a container.
This was the first time Lin Yi saw such a scene, and he was stunned for a moment.
These people surrounded the corpses at the edge above the cave entrance, forming a circle.
The light spots in these people's bodies connected into one, illuminating the entire outside of the cave.
On the other side, a group of people were walking towards this side.
Lin Yi noticed that those brought here were people who had bathed in the hot spring before.
At this time, they were taken to the top of the hot spring like prisoners.
They all looked at the scene in front of them nervously.
When they saw that the circle of glowing objects turned out to be dead people, they were immediately terrified.
"What are you doing? Let us go!"
"Let me go! We have to soak in this hot spring!"
"You bunch of murderers, you will all die miserably!"
…
"Snap!" At this moment, a man suddenly raised the whip in his hand and swung it towards the man.
The man suddenly cried out in pain.
The others also swung the whips in their hands, beating these people until they all lost their temper.
Soon these people stopped what they were doing.
"Behave yourself, everyone!"
After being beaten, these people dared not speak anymore.
Soon, they were brought to the edge of the hot spring.
"All of you, go down and soak in the hot springs. No one is allowed to come out without my order!"
Although these people were reluctant, they had to go down under pressure, take off their outer clothes, leaving only their underwear, and sit in the hot spring pool one by one.
The water in the hot spring pool was as warm as spring, making them forget their previous fear in an instant.
Although everyone was still very nervous, they did not feel the same panic as at the beginning.
Lin Yi has been hiding in the dark and observing everything.
These people just stood there guarding and did not take any further action.
Soon, it was twelve o'clock in the night.
These people holding whips were shivering with cold outside.
Just then, a figure appeared in the distance.
When these people saw the newcomer, they all became excited.
A younger brother ran towards the man. He must be Chen Zhongshan, the chairman of Sanquan Hall.
"Boss, everything is ready."
"Well, good job."
But at this time, the younger brother's expression changed slightly, and after hesitating for a moment, he still said it.
"Boss, something happened today. One of my men died inexplicably in an abandoned house. I heard that someone saw him talking to someone at the third spring this afternoon. His death is very likely related to this person."
"What? Where is that guy?"
"I don't know. No one saw him at the time, and my men didn't tell anyone else where he went. It was others who discovered that he was gone and started looking for him nearby. By the way, we found this at the place where he died." As he spoke, the man handed over a broken dagger.
"Are there any signs of fighting around?" Chenyushan took the broken blade and his expression became solemn.
"No obvious signs of a fight were found. He must have been killed with one blow." The younger brother said quickly.
"Interesting, it looks like this guy is most likely coming for me!"
The younger brother's face suddenly became nervous, "Boss, do we need them to stay and protect you?"
Chenyushan's expression darkened.
The younger brother immediately lowered his head.
"Do you want to repeat what happened before? I finally cultivated an ice crystal flower, but that kid snatched it away! Sooner or later, I will kill this traitor with my own hands!" Chen Zhongshan clenched his fists, and the anger on his face was particularly obvious.
"Yes, I'll let them leave right away!" After saying that, the younger brother quickly dismissed everyone else.
And Chenzhongshan slowly walked towards the edge of the hot spring.
Hearing the conversation between the two, it seems that they had an internal rebellion before. Du Jing must be the traitor, and she took the ice crystal flower and hid in the community where Liu Shijia lived.
Soon, the heavy mountain reached the edge and stopped outside the circle of corpses.
He checked the time and a wicked smile appeared on his face.
"It's almost time."
Lin Yi was less than five meters away from him at this time. With the cover of night and the light here, he could see everything clearly.
Just after he finished speaking, Lin Yi suddenly heard a wailing sound.
The sound came from the bottom of the hot spring.
Could it be that something is happening down there?
As he was guessing, the sounds became more and more obvious, and gradually there were more and more of them.
Soon, dozens of people below burst into screams.
Lin Yi directly collected the snow under his feet into the space, dug a tunnel and went underground to see what was happening.
When he came underground and dug through the passage, the scene before him shocked him slightly.
The temperature of the hot spring water below seems to be rising. Many people can no longer bear such high temperature and their bodies begin to turn red.
What's even more bizarre is that these people sitting inside were clearly unable to bear the heat and were screaming, but they just didn't come out.
They sat there motionless, and only the expressions on their faces and the creepy screams showed that they were in great pain.
Lin Yi could feel that the ice and snow around him were melting rapidly, and the water temperature was slowly rising.
If they continue, these people will be boiled to death.
However, Lin Yi wouldn't come out to rescue these people; he had no obligation to do so. He had come only to search for the ice crystal flower fields mentioned in the Heavy Mountain Pass.
