C36 (1/2)

Tie Tou's words caught our attention. ”If we can't drink water, then I'm afraid we will all die. Even if we go out, there will still be such a substance in our bodies.”

”Don't let your imagination run wild.”

I took a few steps forward, surrounded by mountains, surrounded by weeds. After walking for ten minutes, I finally saw Huang Li and Sun Cheng. Sun Cheng was kneeling down in front of a plant, worshipping it.

Huang Li stood behind him, looking anxious. We hastily ran over to her. ”What's going on?”

Huang Li was afraid of scaring Sun Cheng, so she pulled me back a few steps, ”We saw Madam just now and chased after her before disappearing, allowing Sun Dong to find Chan Yuji.”

This was Chan Yuji? It was an inconspicuous plant with no other plants beside it. It was covered in white sand and stone.

I lowered my head and grabbed a handful of sand. It was extremely acidic, and the rock would shatter easily with a single shove. It even felt somewhat scorching! Logically speaking, this area should be even more sinister than the desert, as it was impossible for plants to grow here. Then, was this grass really the legendary Chan Yu Grass?

I pressed down with both of my hands, signalling to the others not to act rashly. Taking two tentative steps forward, Sun Cheng, who was already obsessed with the plant, continuously kowtowed towards it. I stopped in my tracks.

At this moment, the edges of Sun Cheng's palms were already covered with white smoke, giving off a pungent smell. I didn't dare to advance forward, instead staring at him for a while before Sun Cheng kneeled in front of Chan Yu grass, slowly pushing away the sand at the side, reaching his hands out to dig downwards.

Gradually, I saw a shade of red, that was the blood that Sun Cheng's hands had grinded together. However, it was as if he did not know the pain, and the more he dug, the harder it was. When it was about ten centimeters away, the anxiety on Sun Cheng's face slowly turned into a hearty laugh, ”It's finally your turn. It's finally your turn.”

The demonic Sun Cheng's hands, mixed together with the sand, had already rotted to the point where it looked like nothing more. Moreover, the corrosion was becoming more and more severe, and the aged skin on his arms had become even more severe.

With Chan Yuji completely uprooted by Sun Cheng, Sun Cheng laughed like a madman, completely unable to feel the pain in his hands.

Unable to delay any longer, he kicked Sun Cheng in the chest, placing his foot on his shoulder. Observing both left and right side of the body, the smell of nitric acid grew stronger and stronger, coming from where Sun Cheng had pulled out the plant.

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind passes by behind me. I suddenly realize that the situation isn't good, and look again, Ding Lan Xin and Tie Tou's terrified eyes are currently looking behind me. Without a second thought, that thing that looks exactly like Madam Sun appears behind me.

His right index finger drew a ”Slash” on his left palm. Based on his senses, he aimed it behind his ear and struck out with his palm.

As I turned around, I could smell the sour smell in an instant, and it became more and more concentrated. Madam Sun's face was deathly pale as she smiled at me with a ghost like smile. I stood up and said, ”I know you're not Madam Sun. How long have you been here?”

I tried to talk to the woman in front of me. If the woman in front of me wasn't human, I had a thousand ways to deal with her.

The woman in front of me had a sinister smile on her face. Other than her expression, there were no other changes, it was just that the dark red fingernail on her hand had caught my attention. This peculiar thought made my hair stand on end. It was hard to say where it came from.

Looking back on this matter, since morning, Madam Sun had always been very cold. It was as if she only wore that kind of smile on her face.

In other words, this was her true appearance, or perhaps … She was originally a dead person, and along the way, she was controlled by someone. Her principle was the same as a living corpse.

My heart immediately sank. With a flick of my feet, I kicked a rock and flew towards Madame Sun's forehead.

The corner of the stone drew a wound on her face. Her flesh was turned out, and there was no blood seeping out. Then … I understood it all and was about to give chase when Mrs. Sun floated like a ghost in the fog.

He turned around and shouted, ”Don't step into the sand circle. Everyone is standing outside.”

At this very moment, I could already feel a warm current coming from below my feet. The rubber soles had already melted, and I hastily fled out of the circle, grinding on the grass.

The clothes on his body were burning at a low temperature and slowly melting.
