"Don't be impatient. Speak slowly. Isn't it the same here?"
Everyone looked around and saw that the caves they came to were probably eighty to one hundred.
They are all tightly sealed and there are some empty ones, and there is no trace of the existence of demons.
Mai Fan and his team members picked up their knives and slashed down into the surrounding caves one by one.
Plop, plop...
Countless corpses fell out of the cave.
Some have been dead for many days.
Some were already dying and could only breathe.
Mai Fan knew that this was the sequelae of having his mouth and nose blocked.
Even demons have other ways of breathing air.
But without food, drink or replenishment in this kind of space, people will probably become useless.
On the contrary, at the outermost end of these caves, there are also relatively freshly sealed cave entrances.
They rescued some more living people.
These people, like Meng Shan, are demons who have just been blocked here.
Everyone has one thing in common, that is, they have sought children here and successfully conceived them.
"Leave first!"
The direction of retreat is where the pool is.
Several people dragged those who were still alive, ignoring the dead ones, and retreated to the pool with the rescued group.
Among the various descriptions of monsters, everyone restored such a story.
The queen, or monster, in the Qiuzi Temple here.
It is indeed possible to make these monsters pregnant by some means.
But the price was not clearly explained to anyone, or it was simply too lazy to say it.
The price is that those who come back to fulfill their vows, whether family members or the person involved, must become the empress's food rations.
Yes, it's food rations.
There is a person who has spiritual consciousness and is equipped with ears, eyes and ears all over his body. He is also sealed here.
Because it is a monster, it doesn't need to eat anything, but it is really lonely since it can't get out.
So it used its ears and eyes to observe the cave.
This lady sends some newlyweds here from time to time.
At the same time, drag out those half-dead people.
When they were sent back, they would have something extra on them.
That shape... Everyone looked at one of them who was still breathing.
When you open one's mouth and nose, its entire body is filled with a kind of white eggs.
"What's this!"
Several people trembled and took a step back at the same time.
Mai Fan was also very cautious and did not break or touch anything.
The eyes and ears shivered as if they were remembering something terrible.
"This...this thing...was left behind by the Concubine."
"Some of my companions were eaten, and those who couldn't bear it turned into a pile of bones."
"The half-dead ones are the petri dishes of its offspring...many, many little monsters hatched from here."
"People who pretend to be dead will really die in the end."
"They are just using a way to keep themselves alive for a while. If someone comes to save them, they might be able to survive."
"It's just that those who were laid eggs didn't wait for anyone to come..."
It won't take long for these eggs to hatch naturally... I'm afraid there will be no way to survive.
"So you are just asking for the reward of having a son?"
If that's the case, just tell me. It doesn't matter if you go to the slave market or buy some useful beasts, wouldn't it be the same if they were given to you?
Mai Fan told his speculation, and everyone fell silent.
Why do we have to use relatives?
A more bold and terrifying speculation was made by Mai Fan.
"Could it be said that there is a problem with the child you are seeking?"
"Do you have any children born normally, the kind that come back from the Qiuzi Temple?"
"Are you sure he is really your biological child?"
Everyone's expressions were instantly horrified: "No way?"
"Why don't many people who cherish their bloodline check it?"
"What if your blood comes from your father or mother?"
"Have you ever thought about the parasitism of certain species?"
"As the children get older, what should we do if they are born differently or without the blood of their relatives?"
"Of course it's taken from the people closest to you."
"Do the pregnant females here have to come often to fulfill their wishes when they are about to give birth?"
"If you don't come regularly, the child will always have various problems and eventually miscarry?"
Mai Fan made a terrifying inference...
This inference made all living beings fall silent.
No one is specifically counting this.
If you get it, that will be the biggest surprise.
As for what happens in the future, whether it is born or not, I will never think of it as a question of Qiuzimiao.
What's more, the 'child' here is a real living creature.
But I don’t know whose it is...
The atmosphere was very stagnant for a while...no one wanted to speak.
The scene here is so depressing, and the scene on the ground is not much better.
What's happening underground is simply bad news.
The people here are more or less related to the people who have been here before.
The first wave of people they notified were still on their way.
Because they saw the underground scene, those monsters who originally didn't bother to contact their introducers couldn't wait any longer.
More people know what's going on here.
Especially those monsters who are pregnant or about to be born soon.
It was even more heavily bombarded.
After receiving the notice, some people couldn't believe it and cursed, but some people chose to rush over immediately to ask what happened.
As for most of the people who were notified, they were involved in what happened at Shuangzi Temple.
Although they gained an unknown bloodline, they lost several of their closest family members.
If they want to exchange 1 for 1, they would rather exchange the breadwinner or relative of the family.
If it is true as Mai Fan speculated.
Then the offspring they give birth to are not necessarily the same thing.
The top was a mess.
There are already demons who are not going to sit idly by.
Although this is the residence of demons.
But it was also the capital of the Yafeng Dynasty.
For such a serious matter, the Yafeng Dynasty must be notified.
What's more, there are four black-clothed guards from the Yafeng Dynasty underground, and they are currently exploring on the road.
In order to rescue their missing team members.
Human beings are not looking for children here, but the black-clothed guards appear inexplicably.
Someone in the know gave the answer.
This insider is Xiaobai from the Wushan clan.
Well, Xiaobai couldn't find the exact location because he was afraid of this group of people and the good friend he just met.
It has been following Mai Fan and the others in a hidden state.
Now that it has come out and said it, the suspicion of this team of black guards has been lifted.
At the same time, everyone's feelings towards Xiaobai are also inexplicably complicated.
If this novice hadn't accidentally teleported people in.
No one will discover the secret here yet.
It's just that teammate who has been missing for a long time, and the captain who was kidnapped in front of everyone...
