living in the world of reincarnation

Chapter 214 New Discoveries

The three of Zhao Ziyu were walking in the seemingly endless dark cave. Since there were no monsters chasing after them this time, their walking speed was very slow. Everyone was walking forward while exploring.

The previous group of reptilian humans had gone somewhere unknown, leaving only footprints all over the ground, as well as some tattered strips of cloth and other items.

"How far do we have to go to this cave?" Zhao Ziyu sighed. It would be great if Mu Lan was here. Her mental power spells could clearly see what was ahead.

"Based on our previous experience, there may be a group of people behind us," Shen Wei said.

"It should be about the same. We appeared in a total of six times on the previous island." Zhao Ziyu recalled: "It's like... It's like refreshing an NPC in a game."

"Then after the next wave of people appear, grab one and take a closer look." Shi Zhengyang thought.

Zhao Ziyu nodded, he is really curious now, what kind of tricks the main god is playing in this dungeon.

"There's something ahead!" Shen Wei's bright flashlight caught something, and he reminded loudly.

Shi Zhengyang immediately assumed a defensive posture. He thought it was a monster appearing again. When he took a closer look, he found that under the light of the flashlight, there was something caught in the pile of stones. The little piece that comes is hard to spot.

That thing was more than ten meters away, showing a brown corner.

The three hurried forward, Zhao Ziyu knelt down and flicked the flashlight, wondering, "A handbag?"

The handbag is made of leather, which looks like cowhide. The hijab has two belt-style locks to fix the handbag. The locks are made of brass. The surface of the bag has been tattered and there are many scratches.

"It's a bit British, very retro bag." Zhao Ziyu, who is used to luxury goods, rarely sees this kind of shape. He thinks of the museums he has seen before, so he said: "It looks like an old thing from before."

Shi Zhengyang picked up the handbag and asked curiously: "Old thing, how old is it?"

"I saw it in a museum, it's very old." Zhao Ziyu hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's a popular style in the early 20th century. Employees of middle-class families would wear this kind of bag."

Shi Zhengyang patted the dirt on the top of the handbag, and opened the square bag, which contained a notebook of the same leather texture, a pen, and receipt stamps.

"It does seem to belong to an office worker, maybe an accountant." Zhao Ziyu took the pen to observe for a while, then opened the notebook again.

"English?" Zhao Ziyu was surprised, and then looked carefully at the things recorded in the notebook with the help of the flashlight.

"Let me see what's written on it." Zhao Ziyu said slowly while turning the pages of the book: "It looks like they are all work-related things, such as accounts and procurement."

Passing the notebook to Shi Zhengyang, Zhao Ziyu took the bill and seal and studied it, and then said in surprise: "British United Ocean Trading Company? This is really a company employee!"

"This name?" Shen Wei frowned, "Are we in the real world?"

Zhao Ziyu smelled the wax on the seal, thought for a moment, and said, "It should be a reincarnation world based on our reality, which is a bit like a parallel world. Moreover, it's a past era."

After rummaging through the handbag again and finding that there was nothing special, Shi Zhengyang received the set of items into the storage equipment and said, "Let's continue on our way."

Everyone began to continue to explore, and after about 10 minutes, everyone heard a sound from the cave behind them.

"Those people are here again." Shi Zhengyang said: "There are too many of them, let's stand against the wall and don't be scattered!"

"I suddenly discovered that these people appear very regularly every time." Zhao Ziyu thought, "Counting this time, we have experienced seven times in total. Every time a group of crawling humans will be refreshed in the cave on that island, and They appeared very consistently at intervals of about an hour."

"And within a few minutes of each time they appear, that tentacle monster will appear behind them, as if they appeared together, and the monster will drive humans forward." Shen Wei also thought of this clue, he frowned and said: " It’s really like the BOSS timing refresh mechanism in the game”

"Do you still play games?" Zhao Ziyu teased. In his impression, veterans are all old-fashioned old antiques like Shi Zhengyang.

"It's just to pass the time." Shen Wei said with a smile.

The rustling sound was getting louder and louder, and the few people were not talking, and they were leaning against the wall behind them. Under the illumination of the strong flashlight, humans crawling on the ground began to appear. The front surged and crawled.

The stench from their bodies also followed, Zhao Ziyu covered his nose consciously, not knowing where these people came from, and why they smelled so bad.

After a while, these humans crowded the entrance of the cave, and some of them poked their heads over curiously, sniffing the smell of the rock-solid people.

Shi Zhengyang grabbed a person directly, and the human made a strange cry and struggled indiscriminately without cooperation.

Shi Zhengyang held his hands with sharp nails tightly, and Shen Wei's strong flashlight also shined on them, and he was finally able to observe the appearance of these people up close.

The body is rickety, skinny, and the complexion is gray and white. Shi Zhengyang observed carefully and found that these people are basically normal human beings except for their ugly appearance.

"Boss!" Zhao Ziyu, who was standing opposite, shouted loudly, "There's a man in clothes behind! Catch him!"

Following the direction of Zhao Ziyu's finger, Shi Zhengyang immediately saw a person crowded in the crowd. He was particularly noticeable because he was wearing tattered clothes.

Most of the people in this group were naked, but very few were wearing clothes. Thinking of this difference, Shi Zhengyang fixed his eyes on that person, and grabbed him when he passed by.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!"

This person was also skinny and pitiful, but he could hum something that seemed meaningful. He was wearing a tattered shirt, and his lower body had worn panties that were full of holes, similar to a loincloth.

The man had a terrified expression and was struggling hard, but he still couldn't get rid of Shi Zhengyang's restraint.

After everyone passed through the corridor, Shi Zhengyang caught him in the middle of the road, and Shen Wei and Zhao Ziyu also surrounded him.

"Finally he looks like a civilized person." Zhao Ziyu looked at this person's clothes, and asked, "Could it be that this person is a refugee?"

"Can you speak?" Shi Zhengyang lowered his voice and gradually loosened his grip on his hands.

Unexpectedly, this person drew his hand and was about to run forward. He crawled swiftly on the ground, but his posture was obviously different from the others. His body was hunched over, almost in a state between walking and crawling.

Shen Wei quickly stopped in front of him. The man let out an ah, and then turned around to try to escape from the side, but was caught by the extremely fast Shi Zhengyang.

"We don't want to hurt you!" Shi Zhengyang's voice became louder, and the poor man was trembling with fear and huddled in the corner of the cave wall without saying a word.

"It looks like he was terrified." Zhao Ziyu said, "What did these people go through to become what they are now?"

"Are you British?" Shi Zhengyang asked, he glanced at the shape of this man's shirt, but this kind of clothes haven't changed much in a hundred years, and he couldn't tell where he came from from the clothes.

Hearing the three words "Britain", the man was shocked, and looked over with his eyes wide open.

"It works!" Shi Zhengyang said pleasantly. He continued to slow down his speech, and said in a voice that was as soft and undulating as possible: "We are not those monsters, nor are they bad people who harm you. You don't have to be afraid."

He seemed to understand Shi Zhengyang's words, and sure enough, his body relaxed, and then he stretched out his hand and gently groped for Shi Zhengyang's clothes, and smelled it with his nose, as if he was sensing something.
