Reborn as a short-lived loli who can only live for three years

Chapter 331 Trap

Following this line of thought, it is hard not to think that it was Ran Yin's work.

As the actual manager of the Blue Flower, it is possible that he captured people to develop another kind of toxin.

"Look." Ying suddenly pointed forward, "Is there anyone coming towards us?"

In the distance, there was a person walking with stiff steps, seemingly approaching them.

Several people stopped.

Shizhi Meng stopped Yuishi from trying to stop him and shook her head: "Don't be impatient, let's see what he's going to do first."

Unlike those weirdos that rushed over, this guy moved slowly, but walked more steadily and more like a human.

"The same with him." After the investigation, Yuishu said that this person was also infected with that magic power.

"it is good."

When the man got close to a certain distance, he stopped on his own initiative.

Only then did they see clearly that the man's eyes were empty, dull and turbid, and did not look like the eyes of a living person at all. His face was ashen and his expression was stiff.

He opened and closed the corners of his rusty mouth, uttering syllables so hoarse that they were difficult to recognize.

"Children."

"He can actually speak." Ying whispered again, covering her mouth.

"Who are you? Why are you here? Seeing that you can speak and yet can't speak, do you know what happened to you? Or... do you know us?" Shi Zhimeng asked several questions in one breath, staring into the man's eyes waiting for an answer.

The man just looked back with a dull and empty look, then turned around stiffly and took slow steps: "Follow. Me."

He walked away slowly.

Several people looked at each other.

"He's the only one we've met who can communicate." Wan Yexi suggested, "Let's go over and take a look. Maybe we'll get something unexpected."

The purpose of their coming here was to find Ran Yin. This missing person seemed to be taking them somewhere, which essentially did not conflict with their actions.

"Let's go."

They reached an agreement and followed the man's pace.

Walking along the broken streets of the town, gradually moving towards higher terrain, slowly, the road under our feet turned into a narrow mountain path, and the ruins of the town seemed to be moving away.

They were moving away from the mountain town and heading deeper into the mountains.

Looking back, the mountain fog had covered the road they came from.

Walking on the wet muddy road, Ivy noticed that the missing person who led the way also had his feet covered in mud.

Looking further, there seemed to be footprints going in the opposite direction on the muddy road ahead.

Did this guy come here specifically to find them?

"It smells like bugs." Ivy suddenly spoke as they walked.

"Bugs?! Where? Where?" Ying jumped up in fright again.

There were damp branches and bushes nearby, the forest was silent, and no one else was in sight.

After searching for a while and not seeing any insects, Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"The...smell of insects? Xiao Wei, when did your sense of smell become so good?" Shi Zhimeng asked curiously.

Could it be that after sealing the magical perception, other aspects have evolved?

“I have cultivated…”

Ivy didn't want to admit that she was a wild child who raised insects, but she did smell a similar smell when she artificially created poisonous insects.

"There should be an insect nest nearby."

After she mentioned it, Chu Yu seemed to have an impression: "It's very similar to what we found back then?"

When they were exploring openly, they discovered the nest of the white poisonous insects for the first time. The air at that time had a damp and strange smell.

“Bugs, bugs, bug nest?!” Ying hugged Ivy’s arm silently again, but when she thought that Ivy was also a person who raised bugs, she silently let go and turned around to hug Chu Yu’s arm.

Ivy: “?”

"An insect nest is much scarier than bugs..."

Yuishi's magic exploration yielded results: "Everyone, he is leading us to the place where the magic is most concentrated."

He did not avoid talking to the missing person, but the man did not feel guilty at all and did not stop.

"He knew we would follow."

……

Finally, they came to a cave.

The entrance to the cave here is extremely hidden. Affected by the landslide, more than half of the entrance is blocked by mountain soil, leaving only a man-made hole. From a distance, almost no one can associate it with a cave.

The missing person turned his head stiffly, took a last look at them, and then crawled in using his hands and feet.

"I won't die if I go in, right?" Shi Zhimeng was a little dumbfounded.

What's the difference between this and them jumping into the trap on their own initiative? There is a large amount of magic power gathered inside, and there must be unknown dangers lurking. The entrance is so small that it will be completely blocked with a slight shock!

Wan Yexi thought for a moment and suggested: "We may need someone to stay here to maintain the stability of the terrain and guard against those people's ambush."

Hearing that she didn't have to go into the cave, Ying perked up again: "Can I stay here?"

She was really afraid of insects, especially since this place might be an insect nest.

"If you stay here, we'll be worried about you getting ambushed." Wan Yexi disagreed, "The same goes for Weiwei, too."

"..."

Ivy immediately frowned.

Wan Ye knew her too well... He knew that she didn't want to find Ran Yin, nor did she want to see Ran Yin. If it weren't for the situation, she would have wanted to strangle Ran Yin to death.

After some discussion, the people who stayed here became Ye Jiyan and Wan Yexi.

"You really don't need me to stay? You want to see the dean more than I do, right?" Shi Zhimeng asked repeatedly.

Chu Yu is the one who wants to see Ran Yin the most, Yi Wei and Ying need protection again, and Yui Shu is the bodyguard.

Shi Zhimeng felt that she would be more suitable to stay outside.

"It's okay." Wan Yexi shook his head and smiled, "If the dean is really in there, I also want him to meet... the friends we made."

Upon hearing this, Shi Zhimeng laughed shyly.

"Oh, does this mean I'm about to meet your parents? I'm a little nervous just thinking about it."

You didn't think about this when you fought with Ran Yin in the second round...

Ivy stared at Shi Zhimeng and thought silently.

"We need protection...but why do I feel like it's more dangerous inside?" Ying felt hopeless again, but she tried to fight for it again.

"Don't worry, my servant is better than all of us put together!" Shi Zhimeng patted his chest and assured, "And your sister Chu Yu will go with you, you will be so happy to have her accompany you!"

Shi Zhimeng had long seen how the two of them were trying to please Chu Yu, so when they brought Chu Yu up as an excuse, they were speechless.

"Okay..." Ying accepted her fate again.

“…” Ivy also pulled a face.

After the discussion, several people prepared to set off.

"As usual, if you encounter danger, remember to place the coordinates." Wan Yexi reminded them.

"You too." Chu Yu said.

"Okay, okay, don't worry, let's go!"

Shi Zhimeng had already taken the lead in digging a hole and was ready to crawl in at any time.
