Chapter 607 Accidental Death
After Luo Zheng went out, the remaining people sat together and chatted.
After a while, Xun Siyuan suddenly spoke.
"Junior Brother Luo has been out for so long, why hasn't he come back yet? He won't be in any danger, right?"
One person replied: "Senior brother Xun, don't worry. Junior brother Luo is not a three-year-old child. He will definitely call us if he is in danger."
Another person then said: "That's right, senior brother Xun, don't worry."
Xun Siyuan thought for a moment and realized that what these two people said made sense. He then started chatting with Jiang Chen and others.
After a while, Luo Zheng still hadn't returned, and Jiang Chen gradually felt something was wrong.
However, before Jiang Chen could speak, Xun Siyuan suddenly stood up.
"Almost twenty minutes have passed now. Why hasn't Junior Brother Luo Zheng come back?"
As soon as Xun Siyuan said this, some people wanted to speak, but Xun Siyuan did not give them a chance and spoke directly.
"You just wait here, I'll go over and take a look myself."
After the words fell, Xun Siyuan walked in the direction where Luo Zheng left earlier.
At this moment, Li Wen suddenly called out to Xun Siyuan: "Brother Xun, wait a moment, let's go with you."
Li Wen and Jiang Chen stood up and walked towards Xun Siyuan.
"Senior Brother Xun, let's all go together."
After Jiang Chen and Li Wen stood up, everyone else also stood up.
So, the rest of the people walked together in the direction Luo Zheng left.
"Junior Brother Luo!" "Junior Brother Luo Zheng!"
Everyone knew that there were many dangers here, and they didn't shout loudly, they just called Luo Zheng's name softly.
Of course, their calls went unanswered.
The group of people slowly searched in the direction Luo Zheng left. After a while, Jiang Chen suddenly saw a figure lying under a tree.
"There!" Jiang Chen said.
The others quickly looked in the direction of Jiang Chen's finger, and then they all saw Luo Zheng lying under the tree.
"Junior Brother Luo Zheng?!"
The group of people hurried there quickly.
When they got closer, everyone noticed something strange about Luo Zheng. Although they couldn't use their spiritual sense now, they could still tell whether someone was really dead.
At this time, Luo Zheng was indeed dead.
After being stunned for a moment, everyone who gathered around them stepped back, as if they were afraid of being contaminated by Luo Zheng's ominous aura.
One person pointed to Luo Zheng's body on the ground and said, "Look, does Luo Zheng look similar to the three white bones from before?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Luo Zheng's body carefully.
Sure enough, Luo Zheng's entire body was curled up, and his hands were also curled up in front of his chest, which was somewhat similar to the posture they saw the three white bones in before.
"Curse, he must be under some kind of curse." The man continued, "There must be something wrong with the magic weapon he picked up."
Except for Jiang Chen and the other three, the others took a few steps back again and looked at Luo Zheng's body on the ground in horror.
"Everyone, I feel like it's unlikely to be a curse, at least it's not caused by the magical weapon."
"After all, we found three white bones in total before, and there was only one magic weapon. No matter how you think about it, it can't be the cause of that magic weapon."
After listening to Xun Siyuan's explanation, one person urged: "Senior Brother Xun, even if what you say makes sense, Luo Zheng's death is definitely unusual. Let's leave quickly."
As soon as this was said, another person said: "Yes, Senior Brother Xun, it is still too dangerous here, and it will get dark soon. Let's quickly find a safe place to rest before talking."
After hearing what these two people said, Jiang Chen immediately smiled disdainfully, but didn't say anything more. He just looked at Xun Siyuan standing aside.
Under the gaze of everyone, Xun Siyuan only hesitated slightly before speaking.
"Junior brothers, we have been here with Junior Brother Luo Zheng all the way. Even if we don't say we want to avenge him, we should at least collect his body for him, right? We can't just let his body be exposed in the wilderness, right?"
"Senior Brother Xun?" Someone wanted to persuade him, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Xun Siyuan.
"Junior brothers, how about this?" Xun Siyuan said, "You guys wait aside for now. After I bury junior brother Luo Zheng, we can continue on our way."
"Or you can go first."
At this time, Xun Siyuan's face was full of seriousness. Seeing this, the others had no choice but to swallow back the words that came to their lips.
"Okay, we'll wait for you."
Xun Siyuan ignored the others and stepped forward to inspect Luo Zheng's body. Unfortunately, there were no wounds on Luo Zheng's body, only the look of pain remained in his wide-open eyes.
"well!"
Xun Siyuan sighed softly, found a hollow nearby and prepared to move Luo Zheng's body into it.
On the other side, Jiang Chen and Li Wen looked at each other, and then stepped forward to help while the others were surprised and Xun Siyuan was grateful.
After a while, another person stepped forward and started to help, leaving only the last two people sitting aside and looking coldly at Xun Siyuan and the others.
Xun Siyuan and others first moved Luo Zheng's body into the pit, and then picked up many stones from other places to cover his body. In this environment, they could only bury Luo Zheng in this way.
Finally, they successfully buried Luo Zheng before dark.
Xun Siyuan turned around and said to the remaining people: "Let's go, let's find a safe place to rest first."
At this time, the sky was getting dark, and it was time for everyone to take a good rest after traveling all day.
Under the leadership of Xun Siyuan, everyone found a relatively flat open space.
"Okay, let's have something to eat and then take a brief rest here." Xun Siyuan said, "If we look at the previous ancient tomb defense formation, the range of this defense formation is probably more than ten miles in diameter."
"Let's take a rest here first and then travel all night. What do you think?"
No one objected to Xun Siyuan's proposal. After all, they were originally here to hunt for treasures, and it was normal for them to endure some hardships.
After reaching an agreement, several people took out the dry food they carried and started eating.
At this time, Jiang Chen suddenly discovered that the warlock who buried Luo Zheng with them was just sitting alone and did not take out anything to eat.
Jiang Chen remembered that this person was called Zuo Pengxing. He was another intermediate Xuan-level warlock in the team, and he was also the other person who fell into the water before.
Just now, this man was not afraid of danger and buried Luo Zheng with them. Jiang Chen had a good impression of him and asked immediately.
"Senior Brother Zuo, why don't you eat? Let's take a break and continue on our way."
Zuo Pengxing smiled bitterly at Jiang Chen and said.
"My backpack was broken and all the food in it was lost at some point."
Jiang Chen suddenly understood. Just when he was about to speak, Li Wen took out the food and water and threw them over.
Zuo Pengxing was slightly startled. After thanking Jiang Chen and Li Wen, he started to eat and drink hungrily.
