withered prosperity

Yan Hai collected himself and kicked Yue Liuyi.

"What are you doing!" Yue Liuyi was caught off guard, kicked in the crook of his leg by him, almost fell to his knees on the ground.

"Don't be in a daze, let's go up and have a look." Yan Hai pointed to a protruding stone above the crowd.

"Yue Cuiwei, can't you just talk properly?" Yue Liuyi was very annoyed, but when he saw Yun Ji beside him, he could only bear it: "Just go."

She carried Ah Ying on her shoulders, stepped on the rock wall beside her, and jumped up in two or three times.

"It's the first time I've seen her so afraid of being alone." Yan Hai let Yun Ji embrace him. "What did you do to her?"

"Once people have concerns, they will naturally have a lot of fear. People who have never experienced this feeling will probably never understand it." Yun Ji buried his head next to Yan Hai's neck again, and the scent of blood salivary grass made him feel Feeling unwell. "It's as if I always feel that there is something terrible trying to snatch you from my arms."

After finishing speaking, he actually smiled.

"What scary thing?"

"I don't know, but I'm not afraid." Yun Ji took him, as if flying lightly from the flat ground, and said to him in mid-air: "I'm not boasting, I'm good at fighting. I'm afraid no one can beat me."

"What if?"

"I've already made up my mind that I will be with you regardless of life, old age, sickness or death. Nothing can separate us. If I can't survive, I will take you away with me." Yunji looked relaxed, as if saying a joke Words: "Yan Hai, if there is such a day, would you like it?"

Yan Hai's heart tightened, he was about to say something when he stepped on the ground.

"Can you flirt later?" Yue Liuyi looked at them angrily, "Yue Cuiwei, hurry up and take a look, what should I do!"

Her words were full of anxiety, Yan Hai walked to her side and looked down.

The boulder in the shape of a stone bowl was indeed hollow.

Bloodsaliva doesn't grow in water, so that spot is obviously not as bright as the rest.

Yan Hai was watching intently, when his eyes suddenly became blurred, he rushed forward and almost fell down.

Fortunately, Yun Ji hooked his waist in time and caught him back.

"What are you trying to do!" Yue Liuyi was taken aback by him.

"My eyes are not very good. Sometimes I can't see things very clearly in dark places." Yan Hai said to Yun Ji. "It was very dark all the way just now, and my eyes were too tired, so I felt dizzy."

He knew that Yun Ji must have seen it very clearly, so he couldn't just make up lies to deceive him.

Yun Ji frowned, obviously very dissatisfied with him for hiding it from himself, but in the end he only said one sentence: "Go back and let Wei Heng and Yi Yi show you."

Yan Hai hastily nodded.

Yun Ji raised his head and took a look, then stretched out his hand and swiped, a large piece of bloodsaliva growing on the stalactite fell, and happened to fall into the dark "stone bowl".

With the light of these blood salivary grass, Yan Hai was finally able to clearly see the situation below.

The water in there is actually very clear.

It is precisely because the water is so clear that it makes people's scalp tingle more and more.

There are several rows of long wooden flails on the surface of the water, and there are holes at intervals on the top.

In each hole, there is a child's neck stuck.

Most of them looked at young children, and a few were slightly older, each of them was chained to the wooden shackles with their eyes closed, with only their heads protruding from the water and their bodies submerged in the water.

And under the water, their whole bodies are densely covered with fat worms...

"Damn it." Yue Liuyi closed her eyes and turned her head away.

"From the beginning of our martial arts practice, we have to go to Huayu Pond on the fifteenth of every month, and then soak in it for twelve hours." Yan Hai looked at the scene in front of him and said softly: "Soak with these bugs In the pool, they can transform our bodies so that we can better practice the secret meaning of Qianlian."

Yue Liuyi cursed again there.

"These bugs have hallucinogenic effects, and they feel drowsy when they enter, so we never knew what it was like inside Huayu Pond. Until that time, Yue Liuyi brought a kindling into it." Yan Hai looked at Yue Liuyi: "But I guess she regrets it too."

Although I have seen it, I still want to go in, it is better not to know!

"Among them, there will be some children who can't bear this kind of transformation. They will gradually lose their sanity, some will die, and those who don't die will eventually become butterfly slaves. Those real butterfly slaves are transformed from eating insect eggs. It's not the same." Yan Hai exhaled: "The rest of us who can survive smoothly are qualified to compete for the position of the Four Lords."

"But there don't seem to be only girls here." Yun Ji took a closer look at those children, and found that two or three were already seven or eight years old, and they also looked like boys.

"This is also a very strange place. Before me, everyone thought that only girls should be able to survive in the pond, and only girls should be able to practice the secret meaning of Qianlian, but it turns out that this is just a rule set by humans. As for why... "Yan Hai laughed at himself: "There are too many secrets on Qianlian Island, who can tell?"

"None of these will work." Yue Liuyi said suddenly, "It's all failed."

There are purple lines around the eyes of those children.

"No matter how similar it is, after all, it is artificially made, not the real Huayu Pond." Yan Hai mused, "Maybe, they didn't want to create another Palace Master, what they needed..."

It's just a butterfly slave who has no sanity and can control it.

"Mother." Yue Liuyi threw Ah Ying aside, and drew a pair of daggers from behind her waist. "I'm done!"

"what are you doing?"

"If you keep it, you can only become a monster. Before the alienation is completely born, let's destroy it first." Her short sword slashed across the rock, splashing a little spark: "I'll behead their heads first, Then set fire to these butterflies and broken grass, and after I go out, I will kill that Mu Huaijin and Yue Linghan again, no one is allowed to stop me!"

"Did I tell you that she really hates these butterflies." After watching her jump, Yan Hai turned around and let Yun Ji bow his head and talk to himself: "After seeing her that time, she just raped her in front of us." Pretend to be able to eat, then turn around and sneak away to spit it out."

"You don't have to worry about me." Yun Ji touched his cheek: "I know there is no way to save these children, this is the most correct way."
