Chapter 1361: Real Danger
Chapter 1360 â Real Danger
âChewed on?â Old Hei felt even more disgusted. Was Lin Yi saying that this was an act of cannibalism?
âEaten by his companion?â James felt disgusted, as well. Could it be a cannibalistic tribe before the robbers came? Killing after infighting, and even eating him?
âI donât know.â Lin Yi shook his head. âMight be people, might not be. Anyway, just be more careful.â
âEven if itâs been eaten, whatâs the big deal?â Elder Yu said once he saw that there wasnât any other danger. âProbably because there wasnât any food in here, and they got into a fight for food- one of them got killed and got split to be eaten between his companions after the infighting.â
âHahaâŠâ Lin Yi didnât say anything else but felt that this guy sure had a big imagination. Did he think about stuff like that all the time other than practitioning?
Everyone kept walking forward, and the jadeâs signal still hadnât disappeared, but it didnât get stronger, either. This meant that the danger was in front but still didnât come out yet.
Looking at LIn Yiâs serious and alert look, Elder Yu was looking down on him, especially after nothing came out after so long. Old Hei and James were getting more relaxed, as well.
But, around a kilometer later, Lin Yi stopped again.
âWhat now?â Elder Yu asked after seeing him stop.
âAnother one.â Lin Yi said.
âWhat?â Elder Yu paused.
âAnother pile⊠of bones!â Xiaokeâs sharp eyes noticed it as well.
âThey ate another one?â Elder Yu sighed, his voice solemn.
âYes, another one was eaten.â Lin Yi didnâtâ say no, but his meaning was different from Elder Yu. He wasnât talking about the companions eating their companions.
Lin Yi ignored everyone else and walked over, looking at the pile of bones briefly. It was similar to the old pile and had been gnawed on by something, but it probably wasnât by a man. No people would come to a tomb without preparing enough food, and even if they didnât, they could go back and get it. It wasnât a hard path, and there wasnât any danger this entire road. Why eat humans?
The most important part was that the teeth marks donât look like they came from a human.
This time he didnât stop too long and started walking forward until another pile of bones appeared after walking a while.
âThese guys sure have a great appetite, eating three after just a short while! Haha!â Elder Yu started laughing.
Lin Yi was a bit speechless- this personâs intelligence sure was shocking. Even if it really were the companions eating their own men, who would be able to eat three in a day? Thatâs more than a hundred kilograms, how many kilograms could a man eat in one day?
They continued walking, and a while later, another pile of bones appeared. It was only a few hundred metersâ difference.
âThey ate another one?â Even Elder Yu was getting suspicious. Just how many people were getting eaten? Even if it was infighting, they couldnât kill this many in such as short time?
A bad feeling rose in Lin Yiâs heart- this tomb seemed to have some living thing in here, especially after seeing so many piles of bones.
A while later, and the jadeâs signal started getting more intense.
Lin Yi stopped right away.
âWhatâs wrong now? Another pile?â Elder Yu said unconsciously.
âThere seems to be danger.â Lin Yi said.
âDanger?â Elder Yu paused, and Old Hei and James did the same.
Lingshan and Yutian listened to Lin Yi completely- the two got closer to Lin Yi after he spoke the words. Sticking together was safer.
âHow come I canât feel it?â Elder Yu didnât know where this was coming from- Lin Yi was standing in an open space; it was just a path. There shouldnât be any trouble here!
In ancient times, there werenât any calculators or machinery, and this open space wasnât something where you could set a trap. People walking this wide-open path wouldnât just suddenly step on a trap!
Of course, other than the type of tombs that wanted to be closed up forever. Although James and Old Hei never met that type before.
âLetâs wait here a while.â Lin Yi said and got ready to sit down, not planning on moving forward anymore.
With no split in the path, along with no signs of danger- Lin Yi just stopped- this really made Elder Yu feel unwilling! It had already been many days, and they werenât even the underground palace, always stopping on the road! This was making him pissed off! His time was limited, the meeting was coming up, and if he spent too much time here and his people over there discovered that he was out here, heâd be screwed!
âWhatâs the point of waiting here? Thereâs nothing in front or behind us, just what are you planning?â Elder Yu started suspecting Lin Yiâs goals.
Lin Yi looked at him, too lazy to explain.
âHmph! What about you, guys? I think we should keep moving!â Elder Yu kept hearing Lin Yi said there was danger, and he kept saying that- even though there had been no danger the entire way at all! He didnât really believe him anymore, feeling like he was just trying to make people rely on him by making things seem scary.
âAlright, weâll keep going then!â Old Hei and James looked at each other- they both saw the greed in each otherâs eyes!
Greed was a powerful thing, especially after Lin Yi said he was taking fifty percent- the two had a feeling of wanting to exclude Lin Yi out, and this was a good chance! Lin Yi kept saying there was danger here and danger there, and yet no danger appeared- it was just some bones, and nothing else. This made them a lot more relaxed.
âGood luck.â Lin Yi only smiled.
Xiaoke chose to stay behind- she felt that Lin Yi wouldnât do anything bad to her, but she didnât know what that Old Hei would do. She even felt a bit regretful for taking this mission, and this Old Hei didnât even treat her as a proper member of a team! She was just cannon fodder!
After Elder Yu and Old Hei and James left, Lingshan turned to him. âIs there really danger in front of us?â
Xiaoke was here, so Lingshan couldnât call him Lin Yi.
âMost likely, but I donât know exactly what it is. Itâs a really eerie feeling.â
