Deep in the cave, the stone walls are covered with moss-like plants. They look sticky and smelly, and no one wants to get close.
"Eh... what is this? It's so disgusting, the mucus is sticking to my body." The writer accidentally got the mucus on the stone wall stuck to his body.
Wen Sengyu took some of the mucus off his clothes and rubbed it on his hands. His hands were instantly stuck together with the mucus.
"What is this?" Wen Sengyu smelled the mucus on his hand, but there was no special smell.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the liquid on his hand glowing green.
"Will this thing still light up?" Zheng Junyong stepped forward and said.
Curious, he also grabbed a handful of mucus on the stone wall, then put it in his hand and observed it carefully.
"Why doesn't this light up?" Zheng Junyong said.
Within a few seconds, the mucus in Zheng Junyong's hand also glowed with light green.
"It's bright, it's bright, brother, is this related to the medicinal materials we want to collect?" Zheng Junyong asked Wen Sengyu.
"I don't know about this, but at least this thing is special, so let's pretend it for now."
After Wen Sengyu finished speaking, a man took off his hat and poked the mucus inside.
"Dad, don't you think this glowing slime..." After walking forward for a long time, Wenhao suddenly whispered to Wen Sengyu.
Wen Sengyu nodded in acquiescence: "Yes, I feel it."
In fact, Wen Sengyu felt that there was some unknown magic hidden in the liquid as early as when he touched the mucus, but he did not express this feeling and just continued to move forward silently.
The cave is very deep. Wen Sengyu and the others have been walking inside for more than half an hour, but they still don't feel the end.
"This hole is too deep. When will it end..." a man in the crowd complained.
"That's right, and I didn't see any trace of medicinal materials. Is that Xiaoke trying to trick us?" Another person also agreed.
At this time, Zheng Junyong was also a little impatient, so he also asked Wen Sengyu: "Brother, are you sure you want to move forward?"
"I never said I was sure." Wen Sengyu replied lightly.
"You're fucking playing tricks on us too, aren't you?!" The irritable man pointed the finger at Wen Sengyu.
Before Wen Sengyu could reply, Wen Hao stood up first: "You can leave as you please, no one is asking you!"
After saying that, Wen Hao pulled Wen Sengyu and continued to move forward.
Now the situation on the field continues to be divided into two waves. One wave of people continues to follow Wen Sengyu, and the other wave of people stays where they are to discuss whether to go back.
Not far after Wen Sengyu walked out, screams came from the entrance of the cave, which seemed to be the sounds of the first group of people who had just walked out of the cave.
"What happened? Did you hear it?" Zheng Junyong asked everyone.
"Of course I heard it, it was so loud, and the echo effect in the cave was so good." A woman responded.
"It seems something happened to the group of people who went back..." another man analyzed.
At this moment, the man who had just questioned Wen Sengyu came up with a group of people. His eyes no longer had the rage and were a little more frightened.
"Is it your fault..." The man still held on to Wen Sengyu.
"Well, if I had that ability, why would I follow you in? I could just kill the NPC." Wen Sengyu said with a smile.
In fact, Wen Sengyu really has this ability, but he is modest.
At this moment, a strange sound came from in front of them.
The sound was indescribably harsh, and everyone immediately blocked their ears subconsciously, but it had no effect.
After 5 seconds the sound stopped.
"Are we... still going forward?" Zheng Junyong asked Wen Sengyu.
"The appearance of this abnormality means that we are closer to our destination. I think so. If you think it makes sense, you can continue to follow me."
After Wen Sengyu finished speaking, he continued to walk forward.
He was right. After walking less than 30 meters, they saw many glowing flowers on the ground, but this time the light emitted by the flowers was not light green, but dark red.
Wen Sengyu knelt down and picked one of the flowers. He did not dare to smell it this time because this scene reminded him of the long road when he first entered the realm of reincarnation. He was afraid that he would go crazy again after smelling it. Lose.
The color of the flowers is very strange, emitting a dim red light from the inside to the outside, flickering as if there is a firefly in the core of the flower. The flower as a whole is very large, and the unfolded petals are larger than Wen Sengyu's palm. It is somewhat similar to a lotus, but not as unrestrained as a lotus.
At this time, a woman in the crowd suddenly said: "This flower... looks like the Biangan flower I saw in the book before."
"Hibiscus flower? Is there really such a thing?" said a man next to him.
After hearing the woman's words, Wen Sengyu looked at the flowers in his hand again.
He has never seen any other flowers, but this flower is indeed unusual.
"You...don't be joking. If it's really Bianhua, wouldn't it be hell where we are now, hahaha..." The man smiled guiltily, as if to embolden himself.
But not long after he finished saying this, a woman in the crowd suddenly began to have bleeding, and blood continued to flow from her lower body.
"What's going on? Are you pregnant?" Zheng Junyong walked to the woman and asked.
"I didn't...I didn't, help, help me, it hurts." The woman's face gradually became weak, and she didn't know what happened to her.
Then the same thing started happening to another woman.
"It's not working here either! What should I do?" Another voice came from the end of the crowd.
"Is it related to this flower? Then why are the others fine?" Wen Sengyu analyzed silently in his heart.
"Dad...do you want to think of a solution?" Wenhao asked softly.
"I don't know what happened. Others seem to be fine." Wen Sengyu said.
"I didn't mean to, I didn't mean to pull the petals off just now, save me!!!" the woman at the end of the crowd shouted.
Pull petals?
Wen Sengyu immediately turned to the first woman who suffered from bleeding and asked, "Did you pull the petals just now?"
At this time, the woman was weak and unable to make a sound, but she still nodded with her remaining strength.
The woman's words made the other people throw away the flowers in fright.
"Pick them up quickly, don't disrespect them." Wen Sengyu said to those people.
Sure enough, those who lost the flowers also began to have physical problems. The women began to have bleeding, and the men's skin began to become loose and dry, as if they had been drained dry by something.
Wen Sengyu quickly picked up all the flowers that fell on the ground and put them into the bamboo basket.
After a while, except for those who had "attacked", everyone else was safe.
"It seems that this is it." Wen Sengyu said with a silent sigh.
"What is it?" Zheng Junyong asked.
"The medicinal materials we are looking for." Wen Sengyu said, pointing to the flowers in the bamboo basket.
After the mood calmed down, Wen Sengyu and a group of people filled the bamboo basket with flowers and started to return.
On the way back, they didn't see a single person or corpse, and the corpses disappeared as usual.
"Where are those people who died just now?" Someone asked this question.
"They disappeared. There are always people in the realm of reincarnation who will help 'clean' these corpses. It's magical." Wen Sengyu said lightly.
Others did not feel "magical". After all, they were entering the realm of reincarnation for the first time, and there were unspeakable horrors here for them.
As they approached the cave, Zheng Junyong walked behind and whispered to Wen Sengyu: "Brother, to be honest, I can't hold on anymore. I'm too nervous and scared. I don't know what will happen next."
Wen Sengyu patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay. This is the first time. I was more scared than you the first time."
Zheng Junyong looked at him in disbelief and asked, "How many times is it now?"
Wen Sengyu thought for a moment and then replied: "Many times."
After walking out of the cave, the sky had darkened slightly, and Xiao Ke was still sitting there waiting for their arrival.
"Oh~ you finally came out, let me see how many medicinal materials were collected." Xiao Ke walked over happily.
Wen Sengyu handed him the bamboo basket.
"One, two, three...yes, with such a flower from the other side, it seems that my father can be saved!" Xiao Ke said happily.
"It's really the flower of the other side." A man in the crowd said.
At this time, another man shouted towards the cave: "Look! There are a few more words at the entrance of the cave!"
Wen Sengyu looked back and saw the four characters "Hell Grotto" written next to the entrance of the cave.
He thought to himself that the first-generation reincarnation domain was indeed not perfect enough, and it actually gave everyone this kind of hidden setting to make everyone less afraid.
"Fortunately, I came out...otherwise I wouldn't have gone in!" a woman said.
"Okay, it's getting late, let's go down the mountain and go back to the village." After Xiao Ke said that, he picked up the bamboo basket and walked down the mountain.
It was easy to go up the mountain but difficult to go down. On the way back, Wen Sengyu always felt that his back was particularly heavy.
"Brother Wenhao~" Suddenly he heard Wanqian's voice.
"Brother Wenhao, let me down quickly. I can walk by myself~" Wan Qian blew into Wen Sengyu's ear.
"Damn it, why is it getting heavier and heavier? Why am I carrying someone on my back?" Wen Sengyu cursed in his heart.
Although Wen Sengyu knew that what he was carrying was definitely not Wanqian, he still had a conversation with the "woman" on his back.
"I just want to carry you, I'm happy." Wen Sengyu said to the woman on his back.
At this time, Wen Sengyu also noticed another detail, that is, the large troops around him disappeared, and it seemed that he had entered an illusion again.
But soon, the illusion disappeared. The first thing he felt after coming out of the illusion was that his back felt very relaxed.
After Wen Sengyu walked out, he saw Wen Hao in front of him, so he stepped forward and asked: "Xiao Hao, did you go in just now?"
The writer was particularly excited after seeing Wen Sengyu. He held his hand and said, "I saw it! But I didn't look back. It's too outrageous. I just carried you on my back for a long time."
"Carrying behind my back...?" Wen Sengyu was surprised.
"Yeah, you said you were injured and couldn't walk, but I guessed it wasn't you. I must be smart." Wenhao smiled at Wen Sengyu.
However, the rest were not so lucky.
Many people did not come out of the illusion. When they approached the foot of the mountain, those who did not fall directly to the ground and turned into pools of blood.
This time, many people still had physiological reactions, but most people seemed to have become accustomed to this way of death.
"Okay, we're here! I'll go bring the medicine to my father first. Come find me at home tonight." After Xiao Ke finished speaking, he ran towards the depths of the village.
"Zi Shi? Why Zi Shi." Zheng Junyong first raised this question.
"Just think that this is how the system is arranged. What can we do?" said a woman in the crowd.
"Well, it seems that everyone has adapted well. Let's go back and have a rest. There may be another big battle at night." Wen Sengyu said with a smile.
Wen Sengyu and Wenhao did not return to their place of residence immediately, but walked around the village and bought some food.
There was nothing unusual in the village, but the layout and structure of the houses seemed familiar to him.
Before going back to rest, he first asked about Xiao Ke's residence. Xiao Ke's home was easy to recognize, and almost everyone in the village knew where his home was.
