The Last Apocalypse

Although the injuries were not serious, the physical strength of several people had been severely depleted after some fighting.

They still don't know exactly where the downward extending stairs lead to, and they don't know what dangers they will encounter if they go down, so they simply rest in the cave for a while and wait for their strength to recover before going down.

Ye Qing was the least injured. He sat leaning against the cave wall, holding a ring and an ancient book in his hand.

According to the book, this gray-clothed man named Yuan Shaojie was also a member of the Shufa mountaineering team, and was one of the five missing people.

As for the matter between him and Bai Haoran, there is not much record in the book, only between the lines, it can be seen that Yuan Shaojie and Bai Haoran have a good personal relationship.

Two of the five missing people have already appeared, and there are three more?

Luo Hao on the side was taking a nap with his eyes closed, Ye Qing knew he wasn't really asleep, so he asked, "Do you have any clue?"

Luo Hao said: "The things recorded in the book are very one-sided. Many of them are recorded by the author according to what he saw and thought. There is no record in this cave book. I have a guess. I think the missing person is not Five people, but two people, those two people wandered around the mountain for half a month and couldn't find any usable news, so they had to go down the mountain, while the other five people found here..."

"As a result, the survivors took two lives, but these five people died here?"

Luo Hao nodded: "For the time being, I don't know if all five of them have been here. At least it is certain that Bai Haoran and Yuan Shaojie have been here, but Bai Haoran escaped."

"There's one more thing I haven't figured out. It stands to reason that brain-eating worms don't have the ability to control people. Generally speaking, brain-eating worms will pupate and fall asleep after eating up the human brain, just like Bai Haoran's situation. Same. But Yuan Shaojie's situation is very special, not only is he controlled, but he can also use spells, which is inconsistent with the general situation."

"Maybe there are more than one type of brain-eating worm."

A flash of enlightenment flashed in Ye Qing's eyes, he sat up straight suddenly and said, "Gu!"

"Gu? Miao Jiang's Gu?"

"It's not just Miao Jiang. In fact, Gu is used in many places. It's just that few people practice Gu skills now."

"Are you sure it's Gu?"

Ye Qing nodded affirmatively, "The probability is as high as 80.00%. The longest-lasting bewitching spell is the control of the Gu worm. As long as the Gu worm does not die, the Gu technique will continue. Although I am still not sure whether this Yuan Shaojie is He was planted with some kind of Gu, but judging from his situation, it is indeed quite consistent with the Gu technique."

"Then there is another question now, who made the Gu?"

Luo Hao squeezed his chin, "There are many suspects. They may be the owner of this cave, or they may be members of the climbing team. Immediately find out who the other survivor is besides the author."

"You don't need to look it up, I've memorized all the contents of this book. The other survivor is Mo Fei. He was 22 years old when he entered the mountain, and he was the youngest in the team."

"detailed introduction."

Ye Qing shrugged helplessly and said: "No, the introduction of this group of people in the book is pitifully little, but the author named Qin Huai is really a bit narcissistic. He wrote himself in the book to be more powerful than the gods. The word with the most articles is 'in my opinion'."

"Take Mo Fei as an important suspect."

"Why not Qin Huai?"

"intuition."

Ye Qing tutted, "A woman's seventh sense?"

With a sharp glance, Ye Qing said with a dry smile: "Just kidding...but don't the police always talk about evidence when they handle cases?"

"Learn to make reasonable assumptions, and start off after you have rested."

……

Borrowing the light of the dragon fruit to go down the passage, the passage is narrow enough for only one person to pass through, the wolf king is at the front, Ye Qing is holding the dragon fruit and walking in the middle, Luo Hao is at the rear.

The air in the passage is very humid, the temperature is around [-] degrees, Ye Qing suddenly said: "Wait a minute."

He held the dragon fruit to illuminate the wall. There are fine holes on the wall of the cave, and drops of crystal clear liquid seep out of the holes, and drains are placed on both sides of the passage, and the seeped liquid falls into the hole. After draining, it flows deep into the channel.

I dipped my fingers into some of the liquid on the cave wall. This liquid is stickier than water, somewhat like oil, but more transparent than oil.

"Luo Hao, look at what this is."

Luo Hao touched the wall of the cave, put his finger dipped in the liquid on the tip of his nose and smelled it: "It is colorless and tasteless, and it is impossible to tell what kind of liquid it is just from the feel of the hand."

"I'm not sure either."

The dragon fruit struggled out of Ye Qing's hand, it lay on the cave wall and stretched out its tongue to lick the liquid on it, "I know what this is!"

"Speak and see."

Pitaya affirmed: "It's Huangquan."

Ye Qing frowned, "Are you sure it's Huang Quan?"

"Absolutely, don't forget who I messed with before!"

Ye Qing understood, he knew that the underworld mentioned by Pitaya does not refer to the underworld, but refers to the spring water gushing from the ground in the crypt where people are buried after death.

It's just that the yellow springs in ordinary places are light yellow, but the spring water here is colorless and transparent, so he has not been sure.

Luo Hao said indifferently: "So there is a tomb here?"

"It can be said that, but there is at most a small amount of yellow springs gushing out of ordinary tombs, but look at the yellow springs here...the amount is simply outrageous."

"How did this happen?"

"Burying a hundred of me here will probably have this effect."

After Ye Qing finished speaking, his face froze, and after looking at Luo Hao, he found that his face was not very good-looking, "Actually, it's not that exaggerated, maybe 99 is enough."

"You mean that there must be enough dead people and they must all be proficient in spells?"

Ye Qing said with emotion: "This is the preliminary estimate."

"Any ideas?"

Ye Qing honestly expressed the true thoughts in his heart: "I think, if we go on from here, by this time next year, there will probably be more of the underworld here..."

Luo Hao didn't appear overly worried, on the contrary, his expression became more relaxed than before, and he asked, "Advance or retreat?"

Ye Qing looked up, and he pointed to the top of the passage, "We can't get out, the passage above was automatically closed when we got down, we have to keep going down."

Pitaya jumped to the top of Ye Qing's head tremblingly, "Hey, you're talking so scary, why do I feel chilly?"

"Go on, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge."

Ye Qing nodded: "That's the only way.

The channel goes straight down, and the channel becomes wider as you go down, and the drainage grooves on both sides are deeper.After walking for about an hour, Ye Qing reckoned that they should have descended to the foot of the mountain, but they still couldn't see the end of the passage.

After walking for another half an hour, they finally reached the end, but what surprised them was that at the end of the passage was a small pond formed by the gathering of yellow springs.

This is a natural cave with rugged stalactites hanging upside down on the top of the cave. Ye Qing looked around and took in all the scenes in the cave, "Go down?"

"There should be a channel at the bottom of the pool."

A large amount of spring water pours into the pool at all times, but the water surface of the pool remains relatively stable, neither rising nor falling.

It is not difficult to think that there should be a passage leading to a deeper place under this pool, otherwise the pool would have overflowed the passage long ago.

"Wolf King, can you swim?"

The wolf king didn't answer but jumped into the pool directly, followed by Ye Qing and Luo Hao.

The water in the pool was pitch black, but the water in the pool was not as calm as it indicated, and it was obvious that there was a suction at the bottom of the pool sucking the water in.

Opening his eyes, he could only vaguely see the shadow of the wolf king not far away. Ye Qing swam in the direction of the surging water, but where did Luo Hao go?

The sound of gurgling water filled the ears. Ye Qing tried hard to open his eyes wide to find Luo Hao. Logically, there was a dragon fruit next to Luo Hao, which should be easy to find. However, it was pitch black and there was no light at all.

Ye Qing had a hunch that something was wrong, but at this moment he could only advance but not retreat.

The pool was much deeper than expected, and he was a little dazzled by his breath-holding for so long. The wolf king was still ahead, but where is Luo Hao!

I felt a little flustered, nothing could be more weird than this, the people who jumped into the pool together disappeared.

The wolf king continued to swim forward, but Ye Qing decided to find Luo Hao first. With his ability, it is not difficult to stay underwater for 5 minutes without breathing.

It's only been 2 minutes now, and he decided to pay attention to the passage at the bottom of the pool if he didn't find Luo Hao by 4 minutes.

The time was ticking, the time in the water was very long, Ye Qing didn't dare to swim around, he could only stay where he was and wait.

"Luo Hao, come out quickly... come out quickly!"

3 minutes passed with no movement.

There are 1 minutes left.

30 seconds left!

Ye Qing clenched his fists, counting the time silently in his heart, when it said five, he hesitated, really going to the passage at the bottom of the pool?

Do you want to go to the cave to look for it, maybe Luo Hao is stuck in the cave?

three!

two!

One!

It's time to make a decision, go or stay?

"Blood? It's Luo Hao!"

Luo Hao was injured during the battle against the man in gray, this smell of blood must belong to Luo Hao.

Ye Qing was overjoyed, as soon as he turned around, he saw a red light rushing towards him, it really was Luo Hao, but this situation seemed a bit wrong...

This is an attack!

The pool of water behind him also surged, and Ye Qing turned around and saw the wolf king also rushing towards him...
