Chapter 368

Porcelain Bottle

Thinking this, Ye Mu walked over step by step. The nearer she was, the more lifelike that woman’s face became. Ye Mu furrowed her brows. Why did she feel this was not a dummy, but was a real person?

Seeing the medicine bottle carefully held in the arms of the other party, Ye Mu felt that object was probably useful, so she carefully and cautiously stretched out her hand. Of course, she didn’t forget to wear her gloves.

Just as her hand was about to hit the medicine bottle, a distant, piercing whistle was heard from outside.

Ye Mu withdrew her hand right away. Mo Linyuan was calling her!

So she turned around to go out, planning to tell Mo Linyuan about this matter. But in the instant she turned around, she strangely stepped on grease. In haste, her hand flew to the side for support, and happened to grip the body of that woman who was sound asleep. As soon as she did, she was shocked!

This woman was soft!

Ye Mu repeatedly stepped back, and then she suddenly noticed, the woman that she had grasped for a moment moved! No, it shouldn’t be said she moved, rather, something was moving inside her body!

And in the next second, Ye Mu saw the scene she would never forget all her life!

She saw the countless arches under the woman’s skin, and in a second, long worms broke out of her body! Those worms were very, very thin, like delicate snakes, and this sight made a person’s scalp tingle even more!

When that woman’s glamor-like body shriveled down, Ye Mu had only one thought, which was to leave!

But at this moment, she felt a stab of pain in her palm. In the end, she threw off the glove to check. Just now, she merely supported her hand on the woman’s body, but her palm had already turned into a dangerous green color!

Seeing that she had been poisoned, she gritted her teeth and grabbed the bottle from the woman’s body, and then used all her strength to escape. As she ran, the worms behind her followed all the way. Even if they couldn’t chase her, Ye Mu felt scared.

Seeing Ye Mu come out, Mo Linyuan released a breath. The next second, Ye Mu used the same way to leap over, and just as she landed, she spitted out blood.

Mo Linyuan was frightened. “What happened to you?!”

But Ye Mu stepped backward first. “Don’t touch me!”

Mo Linyuan looked at her with a puzzled expression, not understanding why she refused him.

Ye Mu said in a hoarse voice, “I’m poisoned, this poison is very severe. Don’t touch me, it’s contagious!”

How could Mo Linyuan not touch her? He still stretched her hand out to her, but she avoided him.

“Mo Linyuan, hurry and leave! There seems to be a powerful mechanism that flared up inside, all of us get ready and go out now!”

Seeing Ye Mu’s expression so frightful, the rest of the people hurriedly began to turn back to the previous way. Mo Linyuan saw Ye Mu persistently not letting him touch her, and quickly said, “Okay, I won’t touch you. Let’s go, we’ll go out together.”

His expression was quite flustered. A poison that could make Ye Mu this pale with fright must be very fearsome. Seeing him worried, Ye Mu comforted in a hoarse voice, “Don’t be scared, I can already suppress this poison now, I’ll be okay as long as I don’t use qi.”

Mo Linyuan nodded and brought her out. But as they were leaving, the creatures that were mutually entangled with each other in the pit suddenly were alarmed by something!

Ye Mu keenly noticed, it was those tiny worms that caught up! They were slender and long, like snakes, and slipped into the pool of five poisonous creatures.

Suddenly, the creatures inside boiled with excitement!!

Even if they were already far, Ye Mu could still hear the noise of the creatures restlessly moving. She hurriedly said, “Everyone, go a little faster! Those things behind us are coming!”

Upon hearing that, the soldiers immediately flee in disarray. Fortunately, there were Ye Mu’s marks along the way, so no one got lost.

But the scary thing was, those things really caught up!

The first to come were rats. Every one of them had white nematodes winding around their bodies. Those nematodes pierced above the rats’ heads, the remaining parts writhing outside!

When Ye Mu saw this, her pupils contracted! Then, she disregarded the poison in her body, and stayed at the very back of the troops!

“Xiao Mu-er!” Seeing her not moving, Mo Linyuan hurriedly ran toward her, but Ye Mu only shouted a sentence!

“You go first, I’ll collapse this place!”

Saying this, both her hands exerted power, her internal energy leaking out, and directly shook the tunnel in front into ruins with one blow!

As huge rocks rolled down, the whole tunnel rumbled. Those rocks sealed off the path, and in the split second that it was tightly sealed, Ye Mu heard the horrible shrieks of the rats.

“Watch out!” A huge rock smashed down, and Mo Linyuan threw himself to block for Ye Mu! That rock smashed against his head, and blood immediately flowed out.

Ye Mu didn’t dare touch him. Seeing him injured, she immediately felt panicked.

But Mo Linyuan only flung his head back, and ran out as he pulled her. This time, Ye Mu didn’t refuse.

“Are you okay?” Ye Mu looked at the side of his face that flowed with blood, feeling very apprehensive. But Mo Linyuan said.

“I’m fine, don’t worry.”

Ye Mu wanted to ask again, but the situation right now didn’t permit her.

This underground had many paths. Even if she had sealed one off, there were still other paths.

So she didn’t dare to delay, and continued running forward. The people in front had encountered poisonous worms, but those were worms that they had encountered before. Now escaping, how could they handle too many of them? They directly stepped on those worms, their speed extremely fast! Maybe this way, they could avoid being bitten. After all, they were all wearing boots.

Mo Linyuan also pulled Ye Mu along. At this moment, because Ye Mu had used her qi, her poison surged up. While everyone was in an abyss of suffering, her body kept going hot and then cold, feeling as if clouds and mist were weighing down on her.

“Mo Linyuan, go first, I can’t anymore!”

The underground extended in all directions. If they delayed even for a moment, they would be in danger of being besieged by those five poisonous creatures, and Ye Mu really felt she couldn’t go on anymore. Her heart was burning hot, and a strange green color also appeared on her face!

“We’ll leave together, I definitely can’t abandon you!”

Saying this, he immediately held Ye Mu by her waist. Ye Mu was frightened and hid her poisoned hand, lest it touched Mo Linyuan!

“Put me down, I’m poisoned!”

“Even if it’s deathly! I won’t let go of you!”

Mo Linyuan’s firm words made Ye Mu immediately moved. The next second, sounds that made people’s teeth on edge were heard. Mo Linyuan did the same as those soldiers, trampling on those worms as he rushed out!

Ye Mu’s expression was tense, her hand tightly clutching the medicine bottle. She nestled in Mo Linyuan’s embrace. It was clearly a dangerous moment, yet she felt safe.

But at this very moment, a blood-curdling scream suddenly came out from in front. Mo Linyuan hurriedly ran forward to see, and found that there were many places emitting out with thick, corrosive liquid. Someone stepped on it and gave out a blood-curdling scream. Those liquids didn’t seem to be a mechanism, rather, they looked like something that was naturally produced by the foot of this mountain!
