But Lu Wuyai still frowned, because in front of him stood two corpses that were nothing but bones.
Inside the cave, as time passed, Lu Wuyai's gaze as he looked at the skeletons grew increasingly eerie.
Who would have thought that in this seemingly deserted cave, there would be two corpses of unknown age lying there.
Even more bizarrely, the two corpses were still in the same pose as before they died. Each was holding a sword, the sword piercing the other's body. This is probably why the two died.
Lu Wuyai walked over, secretly assuming that someone had landed on this deserted island long ago. Otherwise, these two ancient people in robes might have been born and raised here.
After circling the corpse, Lu Wuyai found no other clues and instead focused his attention on the two swords.
After so much time, no matter how well they were protected, these two longswords had long since rusted. However, to Lu Wuyai's surprise, a certain spot on the blade that had not yet rusted still gleamed with a cold light.
"Such sharp swords." Lu Wuyai sighed and immediately snatched the two iron swords from the dead man's hands.
As a result, the two corpses also fell to the ground, their bones turning to dust. When the wind blew outside, the cave filled with gunpowder.
Lu Wuyai held his breath and ran out as fast as he could.
Back downstream, at the spot where the stream had just been discovered, the women had returned and told Lu Wuyai that Yu Mengrou had found a small cave nearby. Although it couldn't hold people, it could be used to store things.
Upon hearing this, Lu Wuyai threw his longsword into the water and told others about the valley upstream.
As a result, many people are very interested, especially the two ancient figures.
“Everyone has turned to dust, leaving only these two iron swords,” Lu Wuyai said.
Gu Yuxin also found it amusing. He put down his backpack, took out a bottle of rust remover, and poured it directly onto one of the iron swords.
Over time, at first glance, the rust doesn't seem to come off at all, but after scraping it with a stone, the rust almost comes off in chunks.
Just then, not only Lu Wuyai noticed, but everyone else also clearly saw that the iron sword's blade was becoming brighter and brighter, almost like a mirror reflection.
"What an amazing iron sword!" Gu Yuxin exclaimed, swinging the longsword in her hand, and the sound of it cutting through the air could be heard.
Lu Wuyai took the iron sword and examined it carefully. The sword was as bright as the moon. It was indeed a rare and fine sword.
He tried to chop down a nearby sapling, but to his surprise, the blade snapped the trunk in two with ease. The knife was unsharpened.
"If this hits someone, then it's fine." Lu Wuyai slapped his tongue in surprise and peeled off the rust from the blade. The power of this longsword was simply terrifying.
As for the other sword, under the influence of Gu Yuxin's reagent, this sword turned red, completely different from ordinary iron swords.
"This thing has such a strange material." Gu Yuxin had never seen anything like it before.
Lu Wuyai was captivated by the sword. He loved the red sword, both its shape and its feel.
"Put it away first. This thing is only good for cutting vegetables here," Su Xi pointed out incisively. Compared to their existing weapons, these two longswords seemed somewhat useless.
Lu Wuyai licked his lips. Then, he sharpened the longsword again, making it even more transparent and alluring.
So that night, everyone camped and rested in the forest by the stream. At dusk, they also had a barbecue and a meal.
Before going to sleep, Lu Wuyai took the red sword out of the car and quietly admired its beauty alone in the car.
It must be said that this longsword possesses a magical power. The more one loves it, the more unable to extricate oneself from it. This is something Lu Wuyai has not yet discovered.
Under the moonlight, the longsword of unknown material seemed to flow with some mysterious substance on its red blade, causing Lu Wuyai's pupils to turn red.
As time went by, Lu Wuyai fell asleep without realizing it.
But when he woke up the next day, he found himself lying on the ground in an unfamiliar environment, holding a red sword in his right hand, and he was momentarily stunned.
"Sleepwalking." Lu Wuyai rubbed his head, completely baffled as to why he was here.
Not only did his whole body ache, but his mouth and nose also felt like they were covered in blood. After wiping his nose, Lu Wuyai saw blood on his fingertips and immediately realized something was wrong.
He hurriedly stood up, wiped the pistol on his waist, and found it was still there. His heart, which had been hanging in suspense, immediately relaxed.
After circling the area, he quickly found a footprint. Comparing it to his own shoe print, he confirmed it was his.
Following his footsteps again, Lu Wuyai proceeded cautiously and finally found the valley he had discovered the day before without any danger. He also knew the way from there, so he quickly found Su Xi and the others.
"Where have you been?" Su Xi walked over and, seeing Lu Wuyai's appearance, immediately asked with concern, "What happened to you?"
Lu Wuyai looked at himself covered in blood. He was completely bewildered, but he was certain that the blood was not his, and it was definitely not human blood.
Gu Yuxin frowned as she looked at the sword in Lu Wuyai's hand.
Upon reaching the stream, Lu Wuyai threw down his sword and began to wash his body.
A blood-covered face was reflected in the water. This scene made Lu Wuyai's heart pound inexplicably.
He bled a lot, and after it dried, it stuck to Lu Wuyai's body. He felt very uncomfortable, so he simply took off his clothes and immersed his body in the water.
"General"
At this moment, Gu Yuxin called out towards the woods, and a huge sheepdog emerged. However, as it passed by Lu Wuyai, it was clearly whimpering, its face showing grievance and fear.
The general's strange behavior baffled many people.
After drying himself off, Lu Wuyai got up from the ground and subconsciously reached for the longsword that had been lying on the ground.
However, in the end, Gu Yuxin put away the longsword, saying that she would not give it to Lu Wuyai for the time being for research purposes.
"Alright." Lu Wuyai originally didn't want to give it to her, but seeing the way Gu Yuxin looked at him, he felt something was off, so after thinking about it, he decided to give up.
After packing their things, the group headed towards the valley that Lu Wuyai had discovered the day before, preparing to venture deeper into the deserted island.
But not long after they left, a bloody smell drifted over on the mountain breeze.
When faced with such a situation, everyone would instinctively sense danger and immediately raise their crossbows and firearms.
"I'll go take a look."
Lu Wuyai was very cautious. This wasn't out of curiosity, but to prepare for potential dangers.
However, just as he parted the grass and saw the dead wild deer inside, a chill instantly rushed from his feet to his head, and his scalp went numb.
Behind him, other women crowded around, getting a clear view of the bloody scene. The necks of the dead deer were completely broken, but that wasn't all.
Song Xiaoyou knelt down and twisted the necks of the wild deer, discovering that the necks of each deer, in the same position as a person's Adam's apple, had been bitten into pieces.
"What is that?"
Everyone looked at each other, completely ignoring Lu Wuyai, whose face was now pale.
For some reason, Lu Wuyai felt uncomfortable seeing this scene.
Not only was my mouth dry, but my whole body also felt sticky.
"Lu Wuyai, what's wrong with you?" Su Xi finally noticed that something was wrong with Lu Wuyai, and cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
Lu Wuyai waved his hand to indicate that he was fine, took a few deep breaths, and finally suppressed the indescribable feeling.
"Let's go first." He was still a little annoyed and urged, wanting to leave as soon as possible.
Soon, everyone bypassed the dead deer and continued running into the distance.
On the way, Lu Wuyai's complexion gradually returned to normal; he had initially thought it was a lingering effect of his sleepwalking the previous day.
They walked for a long time that day, until dusk, when they finally stopped on a gentle slope of a high mountain.
"Let's rest here tonight."
The view from the gentle slope is beautiful. To be precise, the mountain on which the slope is located is quite high, offering a panoramic view of the surrounding scenery.
It was still early, so everyone discussed going to find a cave or cave entrance nearby to collect some herbs.
It must be said that the deserted island is an undeveloped virgin land, full of many incredible medicinal herbs.
Several women were lying on the dry grass, their eyes fixed on the ground, their hands moving slowly, their expressions comical yet extremely focused.
They were searching for cordyceps. This time, they ventured deep into a deserted island. Their biggest find was a large quantity of cordyceps. Now, their trunk is filled with a large bag.
However, among these six women, Song Xiaoyou was the most skilled at finding cordyceps. With her keen eyesight, there was nowhere for the herb to hide.
As he spoke, Lu Wuyai was still adjusting his breathing. This uncomfortable feeling had lingered in his mind for an entire day.
"Am I possessed by an evil spirit?" Lu Wuyai thought about how he had gotten up early in the morning and lay in the forest, and then saw the carcass of that wild deer. His mind was always in a heavy state.
Shaking his head, Lu Wuyai walked to the side, but when he handed over the luggage, he found that his body felt inexplicably relaxed.
At first, he thought it was because his condition was slowly improving, but as he moved forward, the heaviness slowly returned to him.
"This is unbelievable."
Lu Wuyai let out a breath and began to lie on the ground, focusing all his attention on finding cordyceps.
As time passed, the sky grew darker and darker. Apart from Song Xiaoyou, who was still inspecting the area, everyone else had begun organizing supplies and setting up tents on the gentle slope.
At this moment, Lu Wuyai also walked to the tent, ready to get a good night's sleep, hoping that his body would be fully recovered by tomorrow morning.
But as he walked, Lu Wuyai's expression became strange.
The feeling of relaxation I used to have suddenly returned.
Lu Wuyai frowned, took a few more steps, and found that a sense of heaviness once again enveloped his entire body. Then, he took two more steps, and a feeling of ease replaced the heaviness.
After repeated testing, Lu Wuyai became certain that something nearby was affecting his body.
"Strange things happen every year, but this year there seem to be more than usual." Lu Wuyai walked around the neighborhood and finally focused on those bags.
At that moment, Gu Yuxin suddenly walked over and took her luggage.
As she left, Lu Wuyai felt the weight on his body return.
"The suitcase." Lu Wuyai frowned, then seemed to remember something. "Could it be that sword?"
For some reason, when he thought of that red sword, an uncontrollable desire rose in Lu Wuyai's heart.
So he walked towards Gu Yuxin, and when she wasn't paying attention, he secretly pulled out a long sword from his bag and ran back to his tent.
After securing the curtains, Lu Wuyai looked at the red sword in his hand and unconsciously swallowed.
The moment you touch the blade, the icy touch will immediately give you goosebumps.
However, Lu Wuyai didn't notice any of this. Less than five minutes after obtaining the longsword, he fell asleep.
At that moment, Molloy was rummaging through her belongings outside the tent. The longsword was missing, which immediately made her think of Lu Wuyai.
Soon, Gu Yuxin arrived outside Lu Wuyai's tent and peered inside through the transparent film on the curtain. It was pitch black inside; she couldn't see anything.
She tried to open the curtains, but they were fixed to the floor from the inside and couldn't be opened at all.
"Song Xiaoyou, come quick and see what this guy is doing in there." Moloy pulled Song Xiaoyou over, feeling uneasy.
With that, Song Xiaoyou put down the cordyceps she was holding, walked over, and turned her gaze to the movie. Night vision gave her extraordinary abilities.
Suddenly, a pair of red eyes opened from the darkness and stared intently at Song Xiaoyou, which really startled her.
"With a bang."
Immediately afterwards, the curtain rose, and Lu Wuyai raised his long sword, slashing at anyone he could see.
"Don't block the way!" Gu Yuxin shouted, and the woman who was preparing dinner nearby immediately reacted.
At this moment, Lu Wuyai's eyes reddened, and the longsword in his hand swirled with mist in the dim light. It didn't look like an ordinary cold weapon at all.
"Quickly knock the sword out of his hand."
Anyone with eyes can see that there's something wrong with this longsword.
However, in this situation, it's best to avoid being attacked by Lu Wuyai. The others have no chance to destroy the red sword.
"General" Su Xi was also furious. At this moment, the only thing she could think of to stop Lu Wuyai was that huge black sheepdog.
However, the general in the forest only let out a mournful cry, seemingly terrified.
"Coward!" Su Xi roared in anger. Seeing Lu Wuyai coming to kill her again, she quickly hid in the nearby wilderness.
On the ground, Lu Wuyai's eyes were red. No matter how others called him, he was completely oblivious and unresponsive.
The only saving grace is that Lu Wuyai has completely lost his rationality and is now just a hacking robot wielding a longsword.
Suddenly, two wolves leaped out of the forest, baring their teeth at Lu Wuyai.
"The situation is bad." Everyone was shocked. Thinking that something might happen to Lu Wuyai, many people rushed out.
But no one expected that in the next second, Lu Wuyai would charge directly at the wolf. The madness in his eyes terrified everyone.
"Lu Wuyai. Come back quickly!" Su Xi was so frightened she almost cried. The other women were equally pale. Song Xiaoyou even drew his pistol, but stopped just as he was about to pull the trigger.
Upon arriving at the station, Lu Wuyai had already pounced on the wolf, using his body to shield him. This was one of the reasons Song Xiaoyou stopped filming.
However, what truly stopped her from firing was that Lu Wuyai bit the wolf's neck and killed it instantly in the act of drinking its blood.
The other wolf was frightened away by Lu Wuyai's gaze and never appeared again.
At this moment, the other women on the ground looked at each other, and naturally thought of the wild deer they had seen in the forest that morning, and Lu Wuyai, who was covered in blood in the early morning.
For a moment, the station was eerily quiet, the only sound being the gurgling of Lu Wuyai swallowing blood.
"Can you knock him out?" Su Xi took a breath. Although her heart was pounding, she still stood up on her own.
No one knew if he would succeed. Song Xiaoyou also took out an iron rod from her bag and walked towards Lu Wuyai.
As for the other women, they also rose from the woods and slowly surrounded Lu Wuyai with gentle footsteps. Even Gu Yuxin controlled a drone to record everything that was happening.
At this moment, Lu Wuyai, who was drinking wolf blood, was still very focused.
Half a minute later, Su Xi raised the stick and struck Lu Wuyai hard on the neck.
When the cold stick landed on the back of Lu Wuyai's head, Su Xi felt her arm tremble, and the stick flew into the air.
Lu Wuyai, who was sucking blood, turned to look at her with red eyes, showing no emotion whatsoever.
Just as Tang Xin secretly sensed something was wrong, Song Xiaoyou's stick immediately fell, striking Lu Wuyai squarely between the eyebrows.
As the stick struck, the iron bar bent slightly. Lu Wuyai stood up from the ground, and the six women took a step back together.
But in the end, Lu Wuyai's body trembled and he collapsed to the ground with a thud.
Seeing this, everyone quickly drew the red sword from Lu Wuyai's hand and handed it back to Gu Yuxin.
"Throw away the sword," Su Xi said uneasily.
Gu Yuxin frowned, finally putting the longsword away, preparing to use the available tools to test its material when she returned.
Lu Wuyai is temporarily unable to wake up here, so everyone has moved him into the tent. Tang Xin will take care of him tonight.
This was a sleepless night for everyone.
The next day, Lu Wuyai suddenly woke up, opened his eyes, and felt blood gushing from his throat. Then, he ran out of the tent, grabbed the big tree, and kept gagging.
After a while, Lu Wuyai regained his composure, leaned against the tree, and slowly sat down on the ground.
At the same time, he also saw the carcass of a wolf on the ground, its throat bitten out.
Last night, no one had the energy to deal with the wolf, so it lay on the gentle slope all night.
But now, as Lu Wuyai looked at it, he couldn't help but drool profusely.
"Why is it another animal carcass with its trachea bitten?" Lu Wuyai's forehead was covered in cold sweat. He suddenly realized that he was clearly in his own tent last night, so why did he run out of Su Xi's tent just now?
