Chapter 578 The cold-blooded pawn Leng Yue was stunned when he heard this, and soon noticed the slightly messy scene here, and walked over at a faster pace, standing next to me, squinting his green eyes and looking down at Alpha's head that had shriveled into a black skeleton, and asked suspiciously: "Who is it" I saw that he had the intention of squatting down to observe, so I hurriedly grabbed him, lowered my head and pointed at the neon larva that was wriggling on the ground, and shook my head at him solemnly.He nodded his head in understanding what I meant, and took a step back, no longer moving forward.Shen Dali answered his question at this time: "This is one of the three brothers, the one called Alpha. ”Leng Yue looked at me expressionlessly, and asked me with her eyes where the other three people were.I shook my head and said, "So far, I've only found one, and I don't know where the other three have gone."
Also, Alpha's death was rather strange, from beginning to end we were in the third hall, and we didn't hear any movement on their side, and the expression on his face looked like he was frightened, and it seemed like he was laughing, and he couldn't tell what was going on. ”Leng Yue nodded, didn't say anything, took out the pair of iron chopsticks, and took out a stone box from the backpack that he got out of nowhere, picked up the neon larva from the ground, carefully put it in the stone box, and closed the stone box.At present, we have found one person, but judging from the death of Alpha, the other three people are probably more than lucky at this time.So I struggled with whether to risk the danger and waste my time and continue to find the three corpses that had gone nowhere, or to keep going, after all, we had now got a Hauni larva.Shen Dali asked me anxiously: "Fifth brother, the other three people don't know where they have gone now, do you want to continue looking for them." ”Putting aside all the previous grievances, after all, these mercenaries came in with us, at least for the time being.According to my code of conduct, it is absolutely impossible to abandon a companion, I think that at least I must live to see people, and die to see corpses.However, before I could say anything, Mr.
Cui suddenly coughed lightly, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "I think, let's stop looking for it and keep going." ”When I heard him say this, I couldn't help but be stunned.I feel a little baffled, because we should have thought the opposite, after all, those mercenaries are his subordinates, and he should be more anxious than me to find those three people.However, he actually told us to give up the search and move on, cold as a cold-blooded animal, without the slightest emotion, as if we had lost not our companions, but a few worthless chess pieces.Yes, he's good at chess, so he probably likes layouts too.The more I think about it, the more I feel chilled, and the more I look at Mr.
Cui, the more I feel that this person is terrible, and there is only one reason for these two points, that is, he actually doesn't even treat the subordinates he hired as human beings, as if in his eyes, other people's lives are not human lives at all.I was a little reluctant to accept such a suggestion, and at one point suspected that he was testing our tone, but when I said that I thought it would be better to find those three people first, his expression was still resolute, his tone was still firm, and he was so calm that he analyzed our current situation so calmly that we did not waste our time on things that no longer meant anything.Perhaps, in his eyes, only the nine dragon eggs and the secrets hidden by the maps on them could touch his emotions.I looked at Mr.
Cui, who was also looking at me, and we just looked at each other, and neither of us spoke again.I wanted to see through his eyes what kind of person he was, but all I saw was numbness.Well, since he has such an attitude as an employer, there is no need for me to insist on risking my life to be a bad person.What's more, the current situation is favorable on our side, because there are now four people on our side, and they are only two left, one is an old guy and the other is a cripple."
Okay, listen to you."
After speaking, I turned around and walked inside with Shen Dali and the others, while Mr.
Cui and the soldiers followed us without saying a word.In fact, I could see that the soldier had the same thoughts as me, but he didn't dare to disobey Mr.
Cui's decision, so he could only choose to remain silent.In the oppressive atmosphere, we walked around the stone statues, passed through two stone doors one after another, and returned to the hall surrounded by ink landscapes.We came to the huge stone table in the center, and I pointed to the inkstone on the table and said to Cold Moon, "Take out the neon larvae and put them in there." ”Then, I arranged for Shen Dali and Zhang Yi to temporarily clean up everything on the table to the ground, so as to ensure that the ugly landscape map on the table could be presented in front of our eyes.After doing all this, I took the jade pen from the stone table and gently touched the neon larva inside the inkstone with the hard jade tip.Hauni larvae are stimulated and immediately secrete a very corrosive transparent liquid.This process worries me a lot, because I don't know if the bug will splash the venom on us all at once, but luckily, the little bug only secretes venom and doesn't use it as a "ranged weapon".Although the venom was very corrosive, it did not cause damage to the jade.After I used the tip of the pen to be stained with venom, I carefully picked up the pen and asked Shen Dali to take out the landscape map we had drawn earlier and unfold it in front of me.Leng Yue seemed to think that this was a very interesting thing, and actually came over with great interest and asked to write it.Thinking of his ugly map in the ancient city of Jinsha, how dare I let him do it, and hurriedly asked him to step aside.I didn't rush to start the pen, and after repeated checks, I made sure that it was correct, and then I gently dropped the pen and began to draw.This process lasted for a long time, because the tip of the pen was jade, and only a small amount of venom could be dipped at a time, so I had to draw a line many times.After about half an hour, I was so tired that my arms were sore, so I could only grit my teeth and persevere, trying my best not to let my hands tremble, and completed the last stroke.The neon larva, which had contributed all its venom and its life to us, had become a thin, transparent soft skin.I carefully put the jade pen back on the pen holder, and then beckoned everyone to step away, vigilantly watching everything that was going on in the hall.However, almost five minutes have passed, and nothing has changed.Could it be that my judgment was wrong, this is such an almost closed space, or the mechanism is not opened in this way Just when I was feeling a little anxious about my self-doubt, Shen Dali suddenly pointed to the top of our heads and exclaimed: "Fifth brother, look at it quickly" aa2705221:
