There was a stinking human corpse and a skull in the cellar.
The moment the bamboo door opened, Lu Xuan was almost suffocated by the stench in the cellar. This smell was even far worse than the stench in the hidden space in the stranded ship.
"vomit……"
Even Lu Xuan, who thought he had a strong "resistance" to the smell, turned around and started to retch.
Although Aphrodite was still one or two meters away from the door, she had already smelled the stench and could not help but turn away and cover her mouth and nose.
After Leng Mengyao and Shen Keyin saw the situation of the two people on the other side, they hurried over.
"Don't come over here...it smells bad."
Lu Xuan caught a glimpse of two women jogging towards him and quickly reached out to stop them.
It’s better if fewer people “enjoy” this taste.
After three minutes of relaxation, Lu Xuan finally straightened up. He was no longer interested in treasure hunting in the cellar. Lu Xuan pinched his nose with his left hand, turned on the flashlight with his right hand and shone it into the cellar twice. After confirming that there were no other useful supplies except the bones and the rotten corpse, Lu Xuan simply closed the bamboo door again.
“I’ll go…”
After the bamboo door was closed, Lu Xuan felt that the air around him was slightly better.
"What does this smell like?"
But even if the bamboo door was closed, Shen Keyin, who was several meters away, could still smell the stench lingering in the air.
"What's in here?"
Although Leng Mengyao had already realized from Lu Xuan's expression that there must be nothing good in this cellar, he still asked curiously. After all, it was quite curious that something could make a person stink like this.
"Don't mention it, there are dead bodies and bones. It seems that Richard has killed many people."
Lu Xuan took a few steps back, found a place with fresher air, and took a few deep breaths of fresh air.
"We've searched everywhere in the tribe, but haven't found Vivian. What should we do now?"
Shen Keyin was quite happy that her group was able to find so many ingredients again, but when she thought about the most critical mission target of this trip, Vivian still hadn't found it, the girl became anxious again.
"Taylor said there's a rock face outside the tribe, and there are two cellars near the rock face. Let's go out and look for it. Aphrodite, you lead the way."
Now that he was here, Lu Xuan naturally would not miss any details, not to mention that his most important task had not been completed yet.
Led by Aphrodite, the four left the tribe from the southwest and arrived at the rock wall that Taylor mentioned.
"Lu Xuan, Aphrodite said there should be a secret cellar on the left side of the rock wall. As for the other one, she doesn't know either. We can only rely on ourselves to explore."
After a brief communication between Leng Mengyao and Aphrodite, he took Lu Xuan and Shen Keyin to successfully find the secret cellar on the left side of the rock wall.
Lu Xuan followed suit and successfully opened the bamboo door of the third cellar.
After turning on the flashlight and shining it inside, Lu Xuan was somewhat disappointed. Although there were some supplies in there, they were far less than in the first cellar. In addition, there was about 30 centimeters of accumulated water at the bottom of this cellar. The few pieces of pickled meat that were there had turned white due to being soaked in water and were obviously no longer edible.
Lu Xuan sighed and closed the bamboo door again. Now the only problem facing the four of them was to find the fourth cellar.
The four of them walked around the rock wall, which didn't look very high, and started searching separately.
Thanks to the valuable experience from the previous three explorations, Lu Xuan gradually figured out a set of tips for identifying the possible locations of cellars. One of them is to use the sound of knocking to determine whether there is a cavity under the surface.
Lu Xuan and Shen Keyin each held a bamboo fork and kept knocking here and there. After searching for nearly ten minutes, they still found nothing.
"Doesn't it say it's around the rock wall? We've circled here and searched everywhere we should, but why can't we find it?"
Lu Xuan's patience grew weaker the longer he searched. After all, daybreak was almost here. The eastern sky was already turning pale, and a faint bluish-purple hue slowly unfolded like a scroll, heralding the arrival of a new day. The surroundings gradually became clearer in the morning light, but the tranquility and beauty of this scene were at odds with his anxious mood.
"Lu Xuan, could it be that Taylor remembered it wrongly and there is no such thing as a fourth cellar?"
Leng Mengyao even suspected that there was something wrong with Taylor's memory.
"That's unlikely. How about you, Mengyao, Keyin, go get Taylor? Forget it, I'll go there myself and ask the old man directly. It's been so long, they should have had enough of this drama."
Lu Xuan was so busy searching through boxes and cellars for supplies that he almost forgot about Taylor and Yin Yichen who were still acting in the tribe.
Thinking that half an hour had passed, the two should have finished their performance, and he could also ask Alusha about the fourth cellar.
"Then let's go together..."
Seeing that Lu Xuan was going back to the tribe, the three women simply followed him.
A few minutes later, Lu Xuan saw Taylor again, who was dry-mouthed and had a bitter look on his face, and Miss Yin, who was still spitting and speaking in an unknown dialect.
"Have you cut the rice? What's the matter with it? How many drops of Zongkong are you going to prepare? Have you cut the rice yet?"
When everyone, including Lu Xuan, saw Miss Yin's posture, they all covered their heads with their hands.
