The nine of them felt a chill on their bodies as the cold wind around them cut their skin like knives.
Xu Chang gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Why is there such a pervert? He's an animal!"
Yang Qingxuan said, "We've wasted a lot of time on our way here. I'm afraid that many people have already entered this place. Everyone, be careful. Not only are there perverted murderers, but there might also be other dangers such as demonic beasts."
He looked at Xu Chang and the others and said, "If you're willing to go in, you can go with me. If not, we'll part ways here."
Xu Chang was stunned. "You … you're letting us go?"
Yang Qingxuan said coldly, "Why? Are you addicted to being a coolie?"
Xu Chang's face changed slightly, revealing a look of anger, but it soon disappeared. He gathered the other four members of the team and discussed it.
After the discussion, Xu Chang walked over and said, "We want to go in with you, but you can't order us to mine anymore."
"Haha."
Yang Qingxuan laughed and said, "Alright, you're free now. Since you want to go in, follow me."
The ten of them continued to walk in, and Xu Chang and the other four were relieved.
After running for a while, they saw two cliffs in front of them, forming a canyon that they could not see the end of.
Yang Qingxuan blinked a few times and channeled his True Qi to his eyes to activate the divine effect, but it was to no avail. The golden light did not appear again.
He was depressed. He knew that the golden light came with the demonic blood, but it appeared randomly. If he could control it freely …
Yang Qingxuan licked his lips and felt a fire in his heart. That was the golden light of the divine eye that could see three miles away!
Suddenly, his pupils constricted, and his eyes were blinded by a scarlet red color, which made him come back to his senses.
The others also noticed the abnormality and exclaimed.
Chen Zhen cried out, "There are so many corpses!"
At the entrance of the canyon, there were fifteen corpses. Some of them died with their heads blown off, some had their intestines pierced, and some had their limbs broken. It was a horrible sight.
Xu Chang gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Zuo Jun! How cruel! "
Chen Zhen's face was also pale. He said in a cold voice, "Although there are no rules in the assessment, if the academy finds out about this, they will definitely not let him off!"
Yang Qingxuan stepped forward and examined the corpses. He frowned.
These fifteen corpses were all poisoned, and many of the corpses had grown white hair. He walked over to a corpse whose intestines had been cut open, took out a shovel, and dug in a few times.
A bloody and musty smell wafted out, causing the other nine people's stomachs to churn. They looked at Yang Qingxuan with strange gazes, but when they saw Yang Qingxuan's calm expression, they could not help but feel curious.
What kind of feeling was it for a fifteen-year-old boy to be so calm as he flipped through someone else's intestines?
After rummaging for a while, Yang Qingxuan threw away the shovel and said, "I can be sure that these fifteen people were not killed by Zuo Jun. They might not even be killed by a human. Everyone, be careful, there might be unexpected danger."
His words made the nine people's faces change. Meng Rui reacted and exclaimed, "Demon beast?!"
Yang Qingxuan nodded, "Very likely. The map marked this area as unknown, so encountering a demon beast is normal. "
Chen Zhen asked suspiciously, "How can you prove that it was not Zuo Jun, but a demon beast? I see that these fifteen people are swollen, they are obviously poisoned. "
Yang Qingxuan said, "Although the previous five died miserably, it wasn't this bad. Moreover, the poison in their bodies is different." He frowned and suddenly said, "Unless the toxicity of the Venomous Hand Supreme Fist can be changed."
Chen Zhen shook his head, "The possibility of this is very low. Zuo Jun is a genius from the Zuo Family's collateral branch. We have been paying attention to him, including studying his Martial Spirit. It is a kind of cold Soul Poison. It is very powerful and it is impossible to change the toxicity. "
Yang Qingxuan nodded, "That's right. The poison here is similar to corpse poison. Not long after being poisoned, corpse hair will grow out. I also checked the wounds of these people. They were all caused by sharp claws. It seems to be the work of some kind of ferocious beast or demon beast. "
He looked worriedly at the long and narrow canyon. He did not know what kind of danger was inside.
Liu Cheng suddenly shouted, "Look, there is newly dug soil here."
On one side of the canyon, there were three pits that had been dug out. The mud had just been dug out.
The few people walked forward. The pits were only one foot long and wide. They were very narrow and had been covered by loose soil, leaving only a shallow pit.
Meng Rui squatted down and touched the soil, "It is wet. It should have just been dug."
Chen Zhen nodded, "It is obvious. Among the fifteen people, one of them must have been mining here and then they were attacked by demon beasts. The other two teams arrived later and were also attacked. "
The others also nodded in agreement.
Yang Qingxuan stared at the pits for a while, revealing a serious expression. He took out a shovel and carefully dug out the loose soil.
Chen Zhen was very pleased with everyone's agreement. When he saw Yang Qingxuan quietly digging the pits, he could not help but frown, "What's wrong?" He was a little unhappy.
Yang Qingxuan said in a deep voice, "These three pits are strange."
"Strange? What's strange? "Chen Zhen was displeased. He was clearly doubting his judgment.
Yang Qingxuan said, "If they were mining, then what about the ores? It can't be that they were attacked after all the ores were dug out. "
Chen Zhen sneered, "Why not? I think it's quite possible. The moment they got the ores, they were happy. It was the easiest time to let down their guard. "
Yang Qingxuan glanced at him, "You mean that demon beasts are as smart as you?"
Chen Zhen, "…"
Yang Qingxuan said, "Moreover, it is impossible to dig out ores from all three pits at the same time. But these are not suspicious points. The most suspicious point is … these pits don't look like they were dug out. They look like … "
His expression was a little ugly. He directly stabbed the shovel into the deep pit. Suddenly, his arm trembled and his expression changed greatly!
The others noticed his abnormality. Meng Rui was shocked, "What's wrong?"
Yang Qingxuan's gaze followed the shovel. The newly dug mud blocked his view, "It seems like something grabbed my shovel …"
"What?!"
The others were shocked. They immediately spread out and became vigilant.
Chen Zhen's face turned pale, "You, you're not lying to us, are you?" After saying that, he realized it was impossible. His face turned red.
The others looked at him, thinking that this person was really childish.
Chen Zhen felt everyone's gaze. His face turned even redder. He was ashamed.
Yang Qingxuan's expression was very serious. He grabbed the shovel with one hand and held it tightly without moving. He said in a deep voice, "It seems that my guess was not wrong. These three pits were dug out from the inside and not from the outside. The demon beasts that killed those fifteen people should be from the earth. There are at least three of them. Now, one of them grabbed my shovel. "
