Monument of Life and Death

  Chapter 1097 Fester

  ***

  Xia Hua saw the familiar hillside.

Very good.

  In fact, she didn't expect that she could really get it back.

  Crossing this hillside is where she and Zhou Ye are separated.

   Just flip over...

   Just ask that question...

  Xia Hua stood blankly on the top edge of the hill, panting heavily.

  She didn't see Zhou Ye's figure.

  The place where the two stood not long ago is now empty.

  The colorful wind and smoke of this world swept away the dust and traces left by the two, and the open space was still so quiet, as if nothing had happened.

  Xia Hua simply suspected that everything that happened just now was a dream of her own.

   She approached, step by step.

  Like going to death.

   Until she saw a pool of water on the ground.

   It turns out that this place is not completely blank, there is still a pool of water here.

  Xia Hua remembers this pool of water.

  Xia Hua squatted down, leaning her face towards the pool.

  She is very beautiful, and she loves beauty very much. She can't imagine how haggard she is now, but she wants to see it now.

  When her own face came into view, Xia Hua didn't feel surprised, but felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

  She saw her pale face, black eye circles, open collar, and the black insect mark in the center of her exposed chest.

   Her snake print.

  There is black and bright light flowing on the lines, is it crying like itself?

  Xia Hua seemed to be able to hear its voice.

   rustling...noisy...

  Xia Hua sniffed and frowned.

  Suddenly, she felt that she was reflected in the water, as if she had changed into a different person.

  Xia Hua narrowed her eyes.

   That face turned back to itself.

   Is it an illusion?

  Xia Hua bent down and moved closer again.

   Suddenly, the face in the water changed again.

  That's right, not a hallucination.

  Xia Hua stared at the water in astonishment, the face in the water kept changing, sometimes it looked like herself, sometimes...it looked like another person...

  A somewhat immature face.

   is a child?

   It looks...somewhat familiar.

  Xia Hua stared straight at that face, unconsciously, getting closer and closer to the pool of water... getting closer and closer...

  ***

  Jasmine turned her head violently, facing the detection direction.

   Be sure to yourself, this is not a joke.

   "Jasmine, save me, I am Miaozhen."

  Occasionally, I would make a few untimely jokes with myself in my exploration, but it is definitely not of this type.

  Jasmine tried to feel the state of probing, but suddenly found that she couldn't feel anything.

  I lost connection with Tanshi.

what is going on?

  Tenshi was still surrounded by her, and Jasmine could always feel safe in the cold mist brought by Tanshi, but now, that sense of security disappeared.

  Jasmine's heart was beating violently.

  Even if everything is as I see it, and these are true, then...how can I save Miaozhen who is asking for help?

  I don't even know how to get out of this room.

  A few seconds later, as if hearing Jasmine's thoughts, Tanshi held Jasmine's hand again, and drew a picture in Jasmine's palm.

   "The exit is under my feet"

   "Take me when you leave"

   While trying to move Miaozhen's body, Jasmine finally understood what happened.

  It was Miaozhen who manipulated her detection.

   Miaozhen was seriously injured and couldn't make a sound or move, but Wu Gengtian's ability was still there, so he manipulated his detection to deliver news for him.

  Jasmine didn't know what to say.

  Manipulating the detection situation is indeed not an idea that ordinary people can have, but if it is Miaozhen... it is really possible.

Moreover, speaking of it, although my own detection potential has the essence of an objective object, it is still difficult to grasp for others, but now Miaozhen can directly manipulate the detection potential, so that it directly blocks The connection between myself and Tanshi has been established.

   Miao is really strong, really strong.

  Jasmine carried Miaozhen's body on her shoulders, moved back a little, then returned to the original spot, and started groping on the ground that Miaozhen stepped on.

   The probe moved again.

  Tanshi grabbed Jasmine's hand, and lightly pressed her index finger to a certain position.

   There's a groove there.

  Is this the exit?

  Jasmine's fingers gradually descended along the groove, and not long after, she touched something like a button.

  Jasmine didn't hesitate much, and was about to press it down, but at this moment, Tanshi grabbed Jasmine's arm from the side.

what happened again?

   Tanshi started writing again.

   Only one word this time.

"fire"

fire…

  Jasmine hopes that Miaozhen can say more, but she also understands that even if Miaozhen can control his own detection, for him, this is something that requires a lot of strength to do.

  Jasmine is very afraid that something will happen to Miaozhen.

  Fire means, press the button, does it start a fire here?

   So escaping from here comes at a price.

  Jasmine thought of several ways to escape from the fire, and finally decided to press the button.

   This time, Tanshi did not stop him.

  Jasmine took a deep breath.

   Press.

  In almost an instant, all perceptions except vision returned.

  She heard the sound of flames burning.

   There is also a gradual increase in the surrounding temperature.

   Warm, fiery, scorching hot...

  ***

  Xia Ni and Auntie Obscure did not fall on the hard ground as expected.

   Instead, they crashed into a very soft spot.

  Auntie Long curled up in Xia Ni's arms, pressing her right wrist with her left hand, looking very painful.

  Xia Ni hugged Aunt Obscure awkwardly, and raised her head in the chaos.

Countless black hands are still clenched in front of his eyes, black lines criss-crossing in this cramped small room, Xia Ni can't see what Auntie's fate looks like now, but even he knows that fate and its master are the same Furious, if something happened to the worm, Aunt Oboro would probably...

  Xia Ni was anxious and frightened, not knowing whether to save Auntie Obscure first, or her life worm first.

  But the truth is, I can't save anyone.

  The surroundings are no longer the white walls and roofs just now, but a bubble-like space. Xia Ni turned her head, and the door when she came in has disappeared, and she can no longer find the exit or entrance.

   Now there is only one way.

  Xia Ni grabbed Auntie Oboro's hand, trying to calm her down.

   "Auntie Long, let your life worm scream..." Xia Ni was about to cry, "There is no other way now..."

  Auntie Hao's eyes slightly opened, the pupils were covered with purple blood, Xia Ni suddenly felt that her proposal was a little too cruel.

   "I...I'm..." Aunt Oboro's voice sounded distorted, "But..."

  Auntie Oboro took away her left hand, exposing her right wrist.

  Xia Ni saw it.

   The insect mark on Aunt Oboro's right wrist is festering.
