The effect of boiling a large amount of water was good. After a while, Qiao Qier came over quietly and found that she was lying in someone's arms. She couldn't see the person clearly in the dark, so she had to react in shock, but Yu Qing was there in time.
fall upon.
"It's me, keep it low." Yu Qing whispered in her ear, and the glowstone in his hand shone through the gaps between his fingers, illuminating his face.
The familiar voice and familiar breath made the panicked Qiao Qier quickly feel at ease. She sat up and asked in a low voice: "What's going on?"
“There are traps here that can cause people to fall into coma...” Yu Qing gave an overview of the situation.
Qiao Qier was frightened after hearing this and couldn't help but ask: "Why are you okay?"
Yu Qing: "We have been taking a medicine for a long time and are not subject to this kind of temptation. I will tell you in detail when I have the opportunity."
As he spoke here, several people over there also gradually came over.
"It's okay, it's okay, keep your voice down, keep your voice down, people from Rift Valley Villa may come down at any time..."
Nanzhu kept whispering reminders in the ears of those who woke up.
After figuring out the reason, several people could not help but have the same reaction as Qiao Qie'er. Ning Chaoyi immediately asked warily: "Why are you guys okay?"
Nanzhu borrowed Yu Qing's words, "We have been taking a medicine for a long time and are not bewitched by this. We have also used the same medicine to save you. I will tell you in detail when I have the opportunity. The question is, if you dig here, will you
Did you fall into a trap?"
A few people were silent for a while, and Nie Pinlan said: "What a cruel method! The reason why the guards were removed is probably to lure us here."
Lu Xingyun suddenly reached out and grabbed Nan Zhu's arm, "Since you gave us the same medicine, does the intoxicating drug in it have no effect on us?"
The amount he drank was not large. Although he woke him up, Nanzhu was not sure whether he could resist the confusion inside. He hesitated and said: "Maybe I can resist it for a while."
"Let's go." Lu Xingyun immediately greeted his daughter, and Shen Qingcheng did not hesitate. The mother and daughter immediately left. The glowstone in their hands disappeared, and they took out the fire fold again, regardless of the Rift Valley Villa outside.
If anyone could see it, they would light it up and run straight inside.
“Qingcheng!” Ning Chao Yi shouted, but failed to stop.
His figure flashed and he actually followed.
Everyone understands what these two mother and daughter mean. Since there is such a trap here, Lou Yushu, who broke in before, may have also fallen into the trap. They must go to check it out, and if there is any difficulty, they must find a way to rescue it.
What everyone didn't expect was that Ning Chaoyi would also go there, giving the impression that he had been living with Shen Qingcheng for the past few nights.
Yu Qing and Nan Zhu remained silent, guessing that Lou Yushu was dead. They didn't say anything about the man-eating ants just now. They only said that there might be some difficulty that was difficult to detect.
"Let's go and have a look together, you too. If anything happens, please save us again."
Nie Pinlan greeted Yu Qing and others without any intention of thanking him for saving his life. He even felt a little rude. He paused for a moment in front of Qiao Qie'er with the lit fire fold in his hand, and then spoke to Zhu Kuanzhen. They turned around and left together.
“Wall Lao Jiu back.”
Yu Qing signaled to Nanzhu, but there was nothing he could do. They didn't want to rush forward. Who knows what was waiting for them in the Rift Valley Villa, which had already fallen out of favor.
Nanzhu dodged away and quickly called Mu Aotie back.
A few people immediately continued to go inside.
The group of people moving forward were slowly exploring and moving forward, and the brothers and sisters caught up with them soon.
This time, after experiencing the scent of osmanthus, the few people did not experience any abnormalities again. It can be seen that the water used to burn the head is still very effective.
Not long after, a group of people came to the hanging wooden sign. They all avoided it carefully, not knowing what it was and not daring to touch it easily.
They didn't go far when they saw a bright light on the ground in front of them. When they got closer, they saw that it was a fluorescent stone. Everyone also smelled the smell of blood.
There was a pool of blood right next to the glowstone. It was not the kind of blood that solidified after flowing, but looked like it had been licked dry by something.
Lu Xingyun squatted down, grabbed the glowstone with one hand, put some blood on the ground with his other hand, put it in front of his nose and smelled it, got up with a sad look on his face and continued to move forward, and he moved forward quickly.
Nie Pinlan also squatted down and touched some blood with his hand and smelled it. After getting up, he told everyone, "It's human blood."
Although they didn’t say whose blood it was, everyone had the same suspicion.
Soon, everyone arrived at the entrance of the funnel-like pit. Lu Xingyun, mother and daughter, almost without hesitation, dropped a glowstone to confirm that the depth was only a dozen feet, and then jumped in one after another.
After briefly observing the situation below, Ning Chaoyi turned around and told the thieves Yuanyang and his wife, "You guys stay here while I go down to investigate first."
The couple nodded in agreement and watched the figure jump in.
Yu Qing also turned around and warned the three people around him before jumping down. Unexpectedly, Qiao Qier didn't obey and jumped down too.
As soon as he landed on the ground, there was a crunching sound under his feet. When the light shone, he found that it had landed on piles of bones.
Lu Xingyun and Shen Qingcheng were already kneeling and sobbing in front of a newly added skeleton. The fresh skeleton was wearing Lou Yushu's gorgeous clothes. They also found a relic belonging to Lou Yushu from inside the clothes, a pair of gloves woven with thin metal chains.
The mother and daughter finally understood why Lou Yushu had not responded at all.
Others could hardly sympathize with their grief. First of all, they paid attention to their surroundings and looked around. They found that it was a very deep pit with a mouth and a small belly. They searched and found no other exits.
Soon, the crying sound below attracted the thieves Yuanyang and his wife to come down to see the situation. When they saw Lou Yushu's death, they were quite surprised.
elsewhere
The chirping sound of Big Head suddenly sounded in Yu Qing's ponytail, shocking others to look at him.
There was a rustling sound all around, and a light mist started to drift up at some point. Soon, dense white shadows appeared in the hazy light.
Yu Qing understood at a glance that, as expected, they were the man-eating ants he had seen underground in the Wen family.
Others couldn't figure out what it was. They only knew that even Lou Yushu was killed. They were forced to retreat and retreated onto the pile of bones.
Seeing such a situation, Lu Xingyun and her daughter couldn't care less about their sorrow. They were in the Jianghu, life and death were hard to describe, and they could only accept their fate, wiped away their tears, and packed his bones with Lou Yushu's clothes on the spot.
, and finally turned into a package and carried it on Lu Xingyun’s back.
Ning Chaoyi brought the fire stick in his hand closer to observe the swarms of man-eating ants crawling towards him, wondering: "What is this?"
Lu Xingyun, whose face was full of grief, said: "Based on the symptoms we experienced, this object is like the legendary 'mirage ant' in the underworld, which can emit mist. People who are lost in the underworld will fall into the mist once they enter the mist."
It will have hallucinations and will actively land on the island to become their prey. It doesn’t even know how it died. It is said that this thing cannot survive outside the underworld, and it is extremely rare. How could it be used in a place like this?"
What exactly is going on? I’m afraid only the people in Rift Valley Villa know the answer.
“Let’s get out of here first.”
Nie Pinlan said hello and flew up first. Her husband Zhu Kuanzhen also left, and they both got back into the hole above.
Others were about to escape from the ant colony, but Shen Qingcheng used fire to break the clothes of the skeletons, and said angrily: "Burn them all, burn them all."
Rotten rags and bones were quickly ignited. Shen Qingcheng, who had nowhere to pour out her grief and anger, did not stop and continued to light the fire.
Yu Qing had to remind: "People outside may think that we are dead. With the fireworks, we are afraid that there will be another preparation."
This statement makes sense. Ning Chao Yi flicked his sleeves, and the strong winds overflowed, extinguishing the fireworks in an instant, and knocked away a group of mirage ants crawling around. However, the other mirage ants still rushed in regardless.
"Let's go." Ning Chaoyi grabbed Shen Qingcheng's arm and led him straight up.
Yu Qing and others also came out one after another.
Everyone was here, and Nie Pinlan didn't shy away from Yu Qing's side, and started making arrangements directly, "They thought we were dead, so they would come back to check and confirm. There must be very few people who know about such a killing move hidden here, so they will come back to check. Those people are most likely the three village owners themselves. We will hide for the time being and wait for an opportunity to catch them off guard. If we can capture a hostage, we can get twice the result with half the effort."
Ning Chaoyi nodded and said, "With things like this on the left and right, why not give it a try. Where can I set up an ambush?"
Nie Pinlan: "Hang upside down at the bottom of the stairs. When it passes below, you can make a sneak attack from above and below, or you can take advantage of it here. What do you think?"
Yu Qing, who was on the side, blinked again and again when he heard this. He realized that this group of people plotting to murder actually did not avoid suspicion at all. Do you really think that they are just showing up? He couldn't help but laughed dryly and said: "We are just here to watch the fun, you and Li The grudges at Gushan Villa are none of our business, you can do whatever you want."
Several people over there glanced at him, and Nie Pinlan replied, "Thank you Brother Lin for the rescue, otherwise we would have been reduced to bones. We will tell Rift Valley Villa later that you are not the same as us. This way, Brother Lin can be saved." Are you satisfied?"
…”
Yu Qing and others were speechless. Thinking about it, they felt quite helpless. Now Rift Valley Villa can believe that they are not in the same group.
I regret it. What are you doing here with these people? Isn’t this just looking for trouble?
Lu Xingyun on the side suddenly said fiercely: "There is no need to set up an ambush, there are ready-made means here."
Everyone immediately looked at her, and Nie Pinlan asked, "How do you say it?"
Lu Xingyun pointed to the deep pit below and said angrily: "Teach him his own way, and I want the entire Rift Valley Villa to be buried with my mother!"
Everyone looked at the situation and understood something immediately. Nie Pinlan was surprised and asked: "You mean using mirage ants?"
Lu Xingyun nodded: "Since we have a way not to be fooled by these things, why not collect them for counterattack?"
“That’s right!” Nie Pinlan, who suddenly woke up, couldn’t help but high-fived and exclaimed, “Why didn’t I think that maybe we can get twice the result with half the effort!”
Shen Qingcheng nodded repeatedly, obviously agreeing with his mother's idea of wanting the entire villa to be buried with her.
Yu Qing and others looked at each other and realized that this group of people really dared to think that the tunnel terrain of Rift Valley Villa was really going to be taken over by these people, which would be terrible.
The three brothers and sisters exchanged glances, not knowing whether the mirage ants had any effect on the sleeper.
“Old Zhu, go and stand guard.” Nie Pinlan tilted his head and said, and Zhu Kuanzhen left without saying a word.
