Chapter 723 A Bloody Path Through Corpses



Carrying Miao Xiaoxian on my back, I quickly reached the end of the passage.

Walking up the steps, you'll find yourself in a huge hall.

The cave was brightly lit at the moment. In addition to many people holding torches, there was a diesel generator roaring and four searchlights providing illumination for the cave.

In the very center of the hall, there is an altar made of piled stones, which looks like a circular swimming pool.

At this moment, forty or fifty villagers are standing at the edge of the altar, lining up to walk onto it.

"Pfft!"

The blade flashed, blood spurted several meters, and a row of people fell down in unison.

Immediately, the people behind them stepped onto the stairs, pushed those who hadn't fallen into the blood pool down, then picked up the knives on the ground and numbly pressed them against their own necks.

The hundreds of people here are just numbly repeating the same few actions.

Judging from their blank stares, these people must have taken some kind of sedative.

He walked up to the platform, pushed his companion's body off, then picked up a knife and committed suicide.

The entire hall was filled with a pungent smell of blood, a smell that seemed almost tangible, rushing straight to the brain through the nostrils.

As the hall filled with the stench of blood, the walls of the cave ceiling seemed to be flowing downwards like molten candles.

Seeing this hellish scene, I quickened my pace while carrying Miao Xiaoxian on my back.

Miao Xiaoxian felt deeply guilty about what had happened today.

If she were to witness this scene, the little girl would surely break down, leaving her with a lifelong trauma.

"Boom!"

Just as I was walking out, I suddenly heard a loud bang, and then the ground beneath my feet began to shake violently.

The people of Ping'an Village didn't react to the strange changes happening around them, but I quickened my pace.

According to the clan chief, they came with more than four hundred people, but my group only has about one-tenth of them.

In other words, there must be at least ten altars here.

The sounds we are hearing now must mean that the other altars have been opened.

Seeing that the fleshy Gu on the wall was about to block the exit, I quickened my pace and ran towards it.

Outside the exit, the wind howled, giving the impression of a huge water pipe with a hollow cavity.

Not only that, but a large amount of sewage mixed with silt poured into the cave.

Running along this passage, every so often there is a large cave, which should be the altars scattered along the way.

As I passed by a cave, I discovered that the cave ceiling had collapsed, and a large amount of liquid was pouring down from the ceiling, forming a pool on the ground. The whirlpool in the center of the pool was drawing the water to the next level.

The water in the cave was overflowing very quickly. I had only run about ten meters when the water behind me started to spill out of the cave entrance and flow into the depths of the cave.

"Boom!"

Another collapse sound came, and the ground shook so hard that I fell flat on my face.

A shrill male voice echoed from the tunnel ahead: "The lower tunnel wall collapsed prematurely, and those monsters have rushed out!"

"roar!"

Immediately afterwards, I heard the roars of those monsters.

At this moment, the passage behind me was flooded, and the only way out was in front of me.

Hearing the monsters' roars rising and falling, I mustered all my strength to get up, carried Miao Xiaoxian, and ran forward as fast as I could.

"Bang! Bang!"

As I ran, I heard another burst of gunfire and flashing lights ahead.

The cave where the riot occurred is just around the corner ahead.

When I got there, several people from Ping'an Village were controlling the corpses to enter the cave, and gunshots and roars could be heard from inside from time to time.

A man wielding a broadsword stood guard at the cave entrance. When he saw me carrying Miao Xiaoxian, he glared at me and asked, "What are you doing here?"

I held up the jade tablet in my hand: "I'm here to save people."

"Why would you come in and rescue anyone in this chaotic situation!"

The man yelled at me, then turned to face the passageway: "Follow me!"

"Ring ring ring!"

After the man blocked the corpses for me, he shook the copper bell in his hand and began to clear a path for me. The corpses rushing down from above heard the bell and scattered to the sides.

"boom!"

Just then, the cave from which the monster had run out suddenly collapsed, and a large amount of blue clay rained down from the sky, engulfing a large part of the cave. The remaining blue clay also fell from the height like a waterfall.

Seeing that the cave was covered, the man turned around and shouted, "Don't just stand there, hurry up and get out of here! Once the mud overflows, you won't be able to leave!"

"Pfft!"

Just as the man was shouting, a monster suddenly emerged from the mud and pounced on him, knocking him to the ground.

"when!"

The man turned around and slashed at the monster's head with his knife, then had an arm ripped off.

Upon seeing this, the men behind all rushed towards them, shouting, "Old Wu!"

"Ring ring ring!"

The one-armed man shook a bell, manipulating several mollusks to pounce on the monster, and roared, "We never intended to leave this cave alive. Protect these two brats and let them go!"

"roar!"

At this moment, several more monsters crawled out of the mud and rushed out of the cave.

Seeing this, a woman rushed over and pushed me behind the group of undead, then grabbed some explosives and wrapped them around herself: "Child, hurry! If we're any later, we won't be able to get out! There's another altar ahead; once we're past that, we'll be safe!"

"Um!"

I watched the group rushing towards the monster, nodded emphatically, then carried Miao Xiaoxian on my back and continued running along the passage.

"boom!"

Half a minute later, a loud bang came from behind.

I knew that the people behind me couldn't hold on any longer. Even though they were exhausted, they were still gritting their teeth and persevering.

A moment later, I had reached the last altar.

In the blood pool in the center of the altar lay dozens of corpses; the entire cave was now deserted.

The flesh-eating Gu in this cave is being attracted by the blood and is moving downwards. There is a large bulge at the top of the cave, like a huge drop of water hanging upside down, which may fall at any moment.

The exit of the altar is directly opposite, about five or six meters above the ground.

Light was coming out of the not-so-large hole.

When I saw the exit over there, it was like grasping at a straw. I carried Miao Xiaoxian and ran over there. I slipped on blood and fell, but I kept running forward.

The entrance was far from the ground, with only a rope ladder attached.

If I were alone, I could easily climb up, but right now I'm carrying an unconscious Miao Xiaoxian.

I looked around and saw that there were no tools I could use, so I put Miao Xiaoxian on the ground and prepared to crawl outside to see if I could find a rope or something to hoist her up.
