Chapter 242: Signs of Death
These blood-colored fluorescent plants give people a very bad feeling. The entire valley was reflected in blood by them, and we feel like we have entered the blood hell.
I always feel that this valley is inexplicably dangerous, but unexpectedly, we walked among the bloody plants and arrived at the depths of the valley safely.
Deep in the valley, under the shade of bloody plants, a clear spring water appeared in front of us.
What surprised me was that this spring water was not blood-colored, but a clear, transparent, clear and lovely spring water.
However, under the red light of the surrounding plants, the transparent spring water looks like a pool of blood.
"Do we just need a can of this kind of spring water?"
I asked Xue Daisha and the others, this spring water looks very ordinary, is this what we are looking for?
"This spring just looks ordinary, it's definitely not a simple thing, look at what's there!"
Xue Daisha glanced at me and suddenly pointed at the grass not far away.
I looked in the direction of her finger, and couldn't help but be surprised, but I saw a rotten corpse lying in the bloody grass!
I checked the left and right and again, and several more bodies were found around, but they were all fresh.
Remember the URL
The rotten corpse was closest to me, and I couldn't help but walk closer carefully, wanting to see what happened.
As soon as I approached, a foul stench suddenly came to my face, and I couldn't stop it even through the gas mask.
The corpse is already rotten and has no recognizable appearance. The skin on the body is covered with rotten blisters, which looks extremely disgusting. However, because the underground environment is special, there are no maggots or the like.
I only took a look and felt very regretful. I almost vomited it out. The picture was so impactful.
However, what made me speechless was that Xue Daisha actually brought this glove and walked to the edge of the body as if nothing had happened, and carefully checked it.
This woman's nerves are a little too tough.
Not long after, Xue Daisha finished examining the body. She took off her gloves and walked towards us, frowned, and said something that made me feel very terrifying.
"The deceased is a man, in his prime. However, looking at the costumes and weapons of this corpse, it is clearly equipped by the US military during World War II."
A US military during World War II died by the Red Spring Water more than ten days ago? This makes no sense.
This made us look at each other and felt incredible.
Xue Daisha frowned for a while, but said, "Maybe the poisonous fog in this forbidden area is strange. It should have an extremely amazing anticorrosion effect. The real death time of this person should have been decades ago..."
Xue Daisha's speculation seems to explain the strange phenomena we see, but I always feel that things are not that simple.
As for the other corpses, they all seemed to have just died. These corpses seemed to be from the company. Fortunately, no one I knew of these people.
In other words, Susan is fine.
By the way, these corpses have swollen faces and black lips.
"Looking at the actions of these people, they died because of water. The cause of death is probably poisoning. This clear spring water may have a very poisonous effect..."
Xue Daisha continued to say again. We looked at each other and fell silent for a moment.
"You go get water."
Xue Daisha suddenly said to me.
When I go, I know that this kind of mess must be my turn, which is really tiring.
I know the reason why Xuedesha does this is simple. I have a curse and will not be poisoned.
I took the jar she handed over and walked carefully towards the red spring water step by step.
Soon, I came to the next to the spring water. The spring water was very clear, but also very deep, and I could not see the bottom at first sight. I could only see my own reflection on the water surface.
I took a deep breath and prepared to scoop a can of water quickly and go back quickly, but when I was fetching the water, I was suddenly shocked and discovered something extremely terrifying.
I clearly saw that my reflection in the water was not me!
The reflection in the water is also a young man. His facial features are a bit like me, but you can tell at a glance that this is definitely not me. His face is particularly cold and hard, as if he has weathered. His expression is gloomy and his eyes are filled with a terrifying majesty.
Those eyes seemed to have a magical power, and when people looked at it, they felt deeply frightened from the bottom of their hearts.
Moreover, his clothes were clearly in the style of indigenous people, and he also carried some gold and silver jewelry, which showed that he had a high status among the indigenous people.
I almost thought I was dazzled, so I shook my head and blinked. After a closer look, the reflection had disappeared and turned into my own appearance.
I quickly scooped the water, wiped the jar clean, and handed it to Yukisa.
Xue Daisha took the jar and carefully put it in her backpack. Seeing that everyone was safe and sound, she was relieved, "Let's hurry up and leave this ghost place!"
Our group began to embark on the way back, but my heart couldn't calm down. I recalled it carefully for a long time and always felt that the reflection I saw in the water was definitely not a dazzle, nor an illusion.
I really saw the shadow of another person in the water like a mirror.
In order to confirm my idea, I urgently wanted a mirror, but unfortunately, everyone didn't have it in their hands, but in the end I found a solution. While everyone was not paying attention, I poured the drinking water in the kettle into a stone trough, and a small water mirror formed.
I held my breath and slowly looked towards the water.
What made me almost go crazy was that with the light of the mine lamp above my head, I clearly saw that the man appeared in the water again...
Legend has it that my curse can bring the so-called God to me and occupy my flesh. So is the man I see the god of the natives, that guy named Mu?
I think my image in the mirror has changed, and it is some kind of sign of death.
This hit me a big blow. I was a little confused along the way. I didn't know if I should tell Qin Ying about this, but soon, something that surprised me even more happened, which made me unable to think about it for the time being.
That morning, after we got up and saw that Sato had disappeared, and this guy disappeared for no reason. When he left, he secretly took away the can of red spring water.
This made Yukisa's face look ugly. She said, "Sato is the spy in our team, he is the company's! Now we have trouble, we must leave here and change the route and hide it!"
When Sato left the team, our whereabouts were probably known by the company. According to the urinary nature of the group of people in the company, they would definitely send a team of people to kill us and cut off our competitors.
Moreover, Xue Daisha said that they had encountered people in the company before and had fought with each other. That time, they suffered heavy losses and the company also suffered considerable personnel losses.
With this layer of hatred, this time, the company will never give up after learning about our whereabouts.
"Sato is actually a traitor..."
This surprised me very much. Didn’t Sato still want to rely on Qin Ying to take office? Now he has betrayed the organization directly. I feel that there seems to be a hidden story here, otherwise it would be a bit unreasonable.
