Chapter 577: There is a chip in the bug
After waiting there for more than half an hour, Xiang Cheng and his companions turned back.
There are no more bugs on the road, but a dozen bugs can still be vaguely seen on the stone walls.
Returning all the way to the place where they had abandoned the car, Xiang Cheng and his companions looked at the densely packed bugs on the car and began to suffer from trypophobia.
"What should we do..." Several people frowned and thought. With those bugs around, it was not easy to get supplies.
"I'll go and lure them away. Take as much supplies as you can. Be careful."
"I'll go with you..." Two teammates volunteered to lure away the bugs, and the others took the opportunity to get in the car.
Xiang Cheng reached for the broom beside him and swept the insects away. "Hurry up and find some supplies."
Although there are still some insects here, the number of insects is not large.
"Ah..." When a team member reached out to take the supplies, he didn't expect that the bugs were actually hiding among the supplies.
His hand was bitten tightly by the bug on the spot. The man shook off the bug on his hand, but the bug was sticking very tightly and he couldn't shake it off no matter how hard he tried.
Helplessly, the man suppressed his nausea, grabbed the insect's body with his hands, and pulled it hard. In an instant, the insect was pulled off.
But along with the bug came a piece of flesh from the man's arm.
The bite force of the worm's teeth was so strong that not a piece of flesh was left on the man's arm, and blood oozed out.
"Take as much supplies as you can, everyone let's retreat..." Xiang Cheng shouted to retreat upon seeing this.
It's too dangerous here. If you get bitten by this bug, you'll be skinned alive even if you don't die.
Everyone took the little supplies they had, turned around and left with Xiang Cheng.
After arriving at a safe place, several people began to clean up the supplies they had obtained. There were very few, pitifully few, and a lot of the food they ate was stained with the mucus from the insects.
No one knew if this mucus would cause other symptoms in the body, so everyone picked out the best supplies.
But there were very few intact supplies, and what they had was only enough for them to have one meal.
"It's okay, everyone just eat sparingly. Everything will be fine once we get back to Sister Xiang Yu..." Xiang Cheng assured everyone.
Several people were still a little suspicious of Xiang Yu at this time, but seeing that Xiang Cheng trusted Xiang Yu so much, they suppressed the emotions in their hearts.
It took me more than six hours of driving at full speed to get here. Now if I want to go back, I don’t know how long it will take to walk on foot.
Xiang Cheng led them, and fortunately everyone knew the way, so they worked together along the way.
We finally arrived at the entrance to the plain area before dark, and there was water piled up under the road, some deep and some shallow.
"Let's go..." Seeing the endless plain, Xiang Cheng's heart finally calmed down a little.
As long as I come back to Sister Xiang Yu, there is still a way to go back.
At this time, the sky was completely dark, and it was even darker on the plains. Relying on their previous memories, everyone moved towards the fortress.
If they lose their way, they will seek help from nearby survivors.
I hurried all the way and finally saw the dim light hanging high in the sky in the darkness at around two o'clock in the morning.
That was the light on the fortress's watchtower. "It's right ahead, everyone hurry up..." Xiang Cheng was thirsty and hungry at this time.
I believe the same is true for my teammates around me.
Everyone watched Xiang Cheng walking towards the fortress and stood behind without taking any action until Xiang Cheng shouted again.
They then took action.
When the robot came to report, Xiang Yu was still a little confused. Why did Xiang Cheng come back again?
Wrapped in a coat, Xiang Yu opened the gate of the fortress. When he saw several embarrassed figures standing in front of the door, Xiang Yu stepped aside to make way.
"Come in first..." It was the same room where they had eaten hotpot before. After entering the room, the team members remained silent.
"What's going on?" Xiang Yu saw how miserable he looked.
Xiang Cheng slowly told Xiang Yu what happened after they set out. Xiang Yu's pupils suddenly shrank, but he calmed down.
"I didn't know the things in the box would undergo such a change. When I put it in, there was only one of them," Xiang Yu stopped adding firewood.
"You said that when that person got on the car, he was holding an instrument in his hand. Did you find anything unusual..." Xiang Yu thought about what he had just said.
"That instrument can detect the location of insects. He used it to keep a close eye on us on the road..."
Xiang Cheng recalled the instrument in Yu Zhenghao's hand, and he accurately found the carriage where the insects were.
There should be a chip or something installed in that bug.
