Chapter 49: Fruit of Terror

Stepping out of that courtyard, the previous feeling came back again, making me feel dizzy.

After a long time, Ma Xiaoling woke up and found that she was already in a cave.

Wan Qi was standing at the entrance of the cave smoking a cigarette, while Uncle Ying found a branch from somewhere and kept fiddling with the fire in front of him.

But the middle-aged couple still hadn't woken up and were lying not far from Ma Xiaoling.

"How long have I been unconscious? I feel so hungry! Does Uncle Ying have anything to eat?"

Ma Xiaoling, who had given birth to a baby, heard the "gurgling" sound coming from her stomach, ran to Uncle Ying, squatted with Uncle Ying and asked softly.

“Just endure it when you’re hungry! It’s best not to eat anything here!

Do you know why Lin Ting died here and turned into a red devil?

She died after being locked up here for several days and eating the food inside due to hunger!

She couldn't tell exactly what she ate, but she would suffer for a long time after eating it, and it is said to be corrosive!"

Although Ma Xiaoling spoke in a low voice, she was still heard by Wan Qi who was standing at the entrance of the cave smoking.

After hearing Wan Qi's words, Ma Xiaoling raised her head in surprise and glanced in Wan Qi's direction.

"Team leader, please explain to me what's going on with those fruit cores under your feet?"

Then, Ma Xiaoling looked at Wan Qi with an unkind expression, pointed at the fruit core at his feet, and began to grind her little white teeth.

"Those fruits were actually found by the young master from all around after he came here.

The reason why I told you not to eat it because it contains corrosive toxins is because the young master has already tried it before."

Uncle Ying gently patted Ma Xiaoling's shoulder and answered Ma Xiaoling's questions for Wan Qi.

As if to match Uncle Ying's words, Wan Qi did a magic trick, took out a red fruit, put it in his mouth and took a bite.

As soon as the fruit entered Wan Qi's mouth, Ma Xiaoling could clearly see that Wan Qi's lips turned pitch black.

Then he saw Wan Qi throw away the core and spit out a mouthful of black turbid air.

When this turbid air sprayed onto the stone wall of the cave, cracks appeared on the stone wall visible to the naked eye, and some small stones on the stone wall turned into fine stone powder.

"This... this is so powerful! This adhesion is stronger than sulfuric acid!"

Seeing this scene, Ma Xiaoling was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear for a moment, and her back was instantly soaked with cold sweat.

"This is just a superficial phenomenon! When these fruits enter the human body, they also have a toxin that will keep the person who eats the fruits awake until death!"

Wan Qi wiped away the juice left by the fruit on his lips, and continued to speak to Ma Xiaoling in an indifferent tone.

However, it was this indifferent tone, combined with Wan Qi's words, that made Ma Xiaoling feel even more creepy.

After eating this fruit, the whole person will have to endure the pain of being corroded from the inside. Just thinking about it will cause Ma Xiaoling to feel a similar pain.

Then her body trembled involuntarily, and she suddenly raised her head and looked at Wan Qi.

"Team leader! Then we must hurry up and find those who are lost here!

It’s almost a day since Tanako, Motoji and the others came in!”

Seeing Ma Xiaoling's nervous expression, Wan Qi took a puff of cigarette and smiled instead.

"Motodera came in with Tanako! So I'm not worried about their safety!

And not long ago, I received a message from Yuanji!

I guess they are not very far away from us now! On the contrary, I am more worried about He Ling who came in earlier!

As for Xiao Lian who came in earlier, she will definitely not be saved! I just hope that and Lin will never eat any food here!"

After saying this, Wan Qi threw the cigarette butt in his hand on the ground, stamped it out with his foot, and walked out of the cave.

When Uncle Ying saw this, he stood up, gave Ma Xiaoling a follow-up look, and walked behind Wan Qi.

"Team leader! What should we do with Lin Ting's parents? Just let them stay in this cave?"

After receiving Uncle Ying's look, Ma Xiaoling glanced at the middle-aged couple lying on the ground and asked Wan Qi in a low voice.

"Let them stay here first! At least they are safe here.

We don’t even know what we will face next!

These two people are in a coma again, and no one among us can take care of them!

After we find everyone, it will be the same as taking them out!"

This time, there was no need for Wan Qi to speak, Uncle Ying had already answered Ma Xiaoling on his behalf.

Hearing Uncle Ying's words, Wan Qi couldn't help but reveal a smile. He really liked the feeling of having Uncle Ying by his side.

Uncle Ying could do many things for him without him having to do anything or say anything.

Originally, Ma Xiaoling wanted to suggest that she stay and take care of the middle-aged couple.

But thinking that this time, he had nothing around him and no ability to protect himself, so he had to give up. This idea followed Wan Qi.

"Team leader! Where did Motodera and Tanako go? Do you really know?

Why do I always feel like you are taking us around without any purpose!"

Ma Xiaoling, who was already hungry, felt as if her legs were filled with lead after walking behind Wan Qi for a long time.

Holding her knees, Ma Xiaoling panted and vented her dissatisfaction.

Turning his head and looking at Ma Xiaoling, Wan Qi didn't say anything more. He just took out a paper charm from his arms and waved it in front of Ma Xiaoling.

"What's the meaning?"

Ma Xiaoling didn't understand Wan Qi's actions at all, and looked at Wan Qi with a question mark on her face.

"What the young master means is that he is using this talisman to sense the whereabouts of Yuanji and the others."

Uncle Ying still performed his job of translator, explaining to Ma Xiaoling the meaning of Wan Qi's movements.

"Uncle Ying! The team leader is not mute! You don't have to tell him everything!"

Ma Xiaoling rolled her eyes at Uncle Ying and complained with some dissatisfaction.

"Girl Ling, you don't understand! The young master now is very different from before!

Especially to you!"

Regarding Ma Xiaoling's complaint, Uncle Ying didn't take it seriously. Instead, a smile appeared on his dull and rigid face, and he said a meaningful sentence.

However, at this moment, Wan Qi squatted down and lay in the grass, and made a downward gesture towards the two of them.
