Xin Li's expression changed unpredictably in an instant. The more so, the more Lin Mengya confirmed her thoughts.
This guy is indeed cruel and scheming.
But he was really too anxious, so he exposed these flaws.
"Of course, I won't really ask you to kneel down. It's just that I don't think there is any need for cooperation between us."
After saying that, Lin Mengya pretended not to care and walked back with the lighting stone.
Moreover, he deliberately did not greet these children, lest Xin Li think that he could threaten her with the lives of these children.
When she walked calmly for about ten steps, Xin Li's voice finally came from behind.
"Wait!"
I knew this guy would be unable to hold back his energy at first.
Turning around, she raised her eyebrows and looked at him calmly. Now the initiative was in her hands.
"If I can get you to cooperate with me by kneeling down, then yes, I promise you."
She heard the sound of her knees touching the ground, and the children who were busy eating finally realized it at this moment.
That person is not their partner.
"You, who are you?"
When Lin Mengya heard the young man asking questions, she slowly turned around and said with a sneer.
"It's just a mad dog. You will stay here when you are full. You are not allowed to go anywhere. Do you understand?"
The teenagers dared not stop her words. She vaguely saw the children, like small animals, leaning closely together, and sighed secretly in her heart.
Although she didn't know why Xin Li wanted to mingle with the Xiong Ling tribe, she knew he had good intentions from the fact that he had plotted against Xiong Lin just now.
"As long as you are here, they won't be of much use."
In the darkness, Xin Li's indifferent voice came, but Lin Mengya didn't believe him.
After a few steps, he walked in front of Xin Li. Sure enough, this man was still kneeling on the ground.
Lin Mengya didn't mean to make things difficult, but she knew Xin Li's temperament very well. Once he succeeded, she was afraid that he would definitely kill her and silence her.
If that's the case, then why should she be polite?
"Get up. I can consider helping you get the things below, but it's so dark here. I don't want to be kicked down by you like Xiong Lin."
Xin Li looked unhappy, but he did not attack immediately.
This made Lin Mengya a little curious. Before, everyone said that Xin Li was the key training target of the Xin family. He should be at least a noble person, similar to a prince.
Even if he reluctantly agreed to such humiliation, he would never give her a good look.
But when she saw Xin Li, his expression only became more gloomy.
This person is really not simple.
"There are lights here, but Don't scare you after I light it."
Xin Li's tone was somewhat malicious, and Lin Mengya just snorted and narrowed her eyes.
"There is nothing to be afraid of. Since there is a light, go ahead and light it. You guys, tear off a piece of cloth from your clothes and cover your eyes. I didn't say you can, but you must not take it off. Do you hear me?"
What she said was meant for the young people, especially Bai Su.
If a person has been in darkness for a long time, his eyes will not be able to bear the sudden sight of light.
"You are really careful. Don't worry, no one can get in except us."
Xin Li's words contained ridicule for her.
Lin Mengya took a few steps back, hid the lighting stone, and covered her eyes.
She was not afraid of Xin Li's deceit, because no one else could get close to that thing except her.
But she had to be on guard, after all, the lunatic would not reason with her.
She opened her eyes and peeked at Xin Li's side. Unexpectedly, two tiny fire snakes suddenly jumped out of the darkness.
Lin Mengya secretly screamed something bad, immediately covered her eyes and fell to the ground.
Damn Xin Li, he actually dared to plot against her!
The expected scorching heat did not come, Lin Mengya only heard a series of 'puff' sounds in the air.
She was still lying on the ground, but she opened a small gap with her fingers, squinted her eyes, and looked around.
There is no fire, but what about the fire snake?
Huh? There are lights!
Although the light can be considered very bright, because the space here is too vast, the lighting function is actually very limited.
But Xin Li still didn't come back. She heard footsteps coming and going, and fiery snakes kept scurrying in all directions.
Lin Mengya rubbed her sore eyes and gradually adapted to the surrounding light.
The design here is still very reasonable, at least it doesn't light up all at once, but gradually gets brighter little by little.
She put down her hands, stood up and looked around.
God! What on earth is this place!
"How about it? Is it amazing enough?"
Xin Li's voice came from behind.
Lin Mengya immediately turned around and looked at Xin Li who was walking over with vigilance.
There was a proud look in his eyes, as if he was not surprised by everything here.
Everywhere you look is covered with bones.
No wonder after her
When I came here, I didn't trip over the bones. Because of the long history, those bones had turned into scum and would break into pieces at the slightest touch. They no longer have the tenacity of bones.
This place is definitely not the ruins of an ancient city. In the open space as far as the eye can see, all the bones are placed in the direction behind her.
Lin Mengya came back to her senses, only to find that Xin Li was also looking in the direction behind him.
what is that?
The huge stone statue emerged from a circular pit and looked particularly strange against the backdrop of numerous bones.
But all the lights extend from the top of the stone statue's head.
The oil lamps that stretched for an unknown length of time were arranged along the stone wall above the head.
Lin Mengya couldn't help but walked forward, only to find that this stone statue was actually the Witch Queen! .??.
"What exactly is this place?"
She originally thought that these things were done by the Xin family. But now it seems that the Xin family obviously does not have that much ability.
Xin Li glanced at his mouth and said.
"I don't know either. This place has existed since I was born. But these are not important. Have you seen the wooden box in the arms of the stone statue? What I want is right there."
He licked his lips, and there was uncontrollable greed in his eyes.
Lin Mengya looked at him as calmly as possible, then moved her gaze to the middle of the stone statue.
Sure enough, there was a wooden box embedded in the hands holding each other on the stone statue's chest.
However, there was something strange about the wooden box, but it was a little far away and she couldn't see it clearly.
"I can't lift such a big box. Besides, this thing is so valuable. There must be a lock on the box, and I can't open it."
She shrugged, obviously this was a difficult activity.
Xin Li was a little dissatisfied, but now, he couldn't give up even more.
"I can't give you the key in this wooden box just yet. And you don't have to rush down, it's not time yet."
Xin Li crossed his arms, looking like he was watching a good show.
Lin Mengya did not continue to ask questions because she saw the controlled corpses.
Almost all the corpse puppets were standing on the other side of the stone statue.
And there were a lot of people, at least about a thousand people.
What on earth are the Xin family planning to use for so many people?
"The time has come. If it hadn't been for me, you would never have seen such a wonder in your life."
The enthusiasm in Xin Li's eyes made Lin Mengya tremble with coldness.
None of the Xin family members were normal, otherwise they wouldn't have gotten so many corpses. She saw the wooden box move. Could it be that there was something alive inside?
But Xin Li took a step forward, looking very excited.
A few minutes later, she saw several white vines extending out of the wooden box at some point, and then climbed out along the stone statue.
All the corpse puppets stood there honestly.
The rattan stretched as hard as it could and finally wrapped around the first person's body. Then, without hesitation, it penetrated into the zombie's brain, and then passed out from the other side, followed by another one.
The shocking scene made Lin Mengya's eyes widen.
Impossible! Although she knows that there are plants that can eat people deep in the jungle, but this rattan is too weird, right?
But then, the Shennong system fed her a message.
She finally calmed down, but increasingly she could only use the word "crazy" to describe the Xin family.
"Did you see it? This is a real miracle and the biggest secret of our Xin family. Now, it is about to be completed!"
Xin Li's eyes flashed with madness.
Lin Mengya knew that the things in the wooden box were the immortality they were looking for.
"There are no miracles, it's just a trick played by people."
Xin Li immediately glared back at her fiercely, obviously dissatisfied with her attitude.
Lin Mengya shrugged helplessly and did not continue to irritate him.
Because this thing is indeed special, but strictly speaking, there is a small parasitic insect on the white vines.
This thing should be the predecessor of the Gu insect they found on the people of the Xiong Ling tribe.
Thinking about it, it's this kind of bug that likes to lay eggs and parasitize in the brains of dead people, and then it's just used by the Xin family.
Some secrets become less scary once they are revealed.
Lin Mengya had a good time watching the vines spreading wantonly among the dead. What she was more concerned about was the contents of the box.
Even the alarm given to her by the Shennong system reached the highest level, and she felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.
But she finally understood that the so-called immortality was really a scam.
As for Xin Li, now he is just seeking his own death.
"Miss Lin, please."
Xin Li stepped aside, and Lin Mengya saw steps behind him that extended to the bottom of the pit.
That guy also fully revealed his ferocity, his eyes staring at her like a poisonous snake, as if she was the prey.
"It's very simple to let me go down. You answer a few questions for me first. Otherwise, the two of us will fight to the death."
