Chapter 600 - 600: The city (1)
As soon as the fish was stuffed into the silver Wolfs mouth, it was immediately enraged. It rolled over and got up. After chewing twice and swallowing the food, it showed a look of disgust and growled at song qingxiao.
The wolf was very vigilant and its sense of crisis was much sharper than humans. If there was something wrong with the fish meat, it should have spat
it out long ago.
Now that it had swallowed it, it proved that the dried fish was not poisonous
and could be eaten with ease.
Song qingxiao saw it swallow it and took a bite too.
“..’’Number one was speechless, but after confirming that there was no problem with the fish, everyone started to move.
To song Qjng’s surprise, the taste of the fish was not bad. It was much better than its appearance. The meat itself had a salty taste, but it was too dry and hard.
After she finished eating, she suddenly opened her mouth and asked,
“Do you have water to drink?”
The man who was also eating the dried fish didn’t expect her to make another request. He was stunned and shook his head after a while.
“No, I didn’t,”
After he finished, he pretended to ask his companions,
“Do any of you still have water?”
Everyone who was caught by his gaze shook their heads.
“I might have finished it all.” He then explained,”
there are many difficulties here. When we travel, we travel light and try not to drag the team down. Not only water, but we also don’t have much food.
As he spoke, he pointed at the small piece of fish in each of their hands, as if to verify his words.
At first, what he said made sense, but after thinking about it carefully, it was
full of doubts.
There were at least a dozen people in this group, and it was a little strange that none of them had extra water.
In addition, they used the excuse that they were afraid of the giant spider s return and refused to go into the lake to get arrows. This made song qingxiao even more suspicious that they were afraid of water.
If his guess was right, the fact that it was afraid of water was similar to the giant spider’s attribute. With all the similarities added up, the possibility of a coincidence was not great.
Song qingxiao pursed her lips. The lack of food might not be because they wanted to lighten their burden, but because they did not have enough food!
Number one glanced at song qingxiao again, as if blaming her for being so nosy.
He could tell that the bow-wielding man’s patience with song qingxiao had reached its limit. In fact, the trial-takers could tell that there was something strange about this group of people. However, the mission had not started yet, and killing the giant spider would not help in triggering the mission.
In that case, this group of people who had appeared unexpectedly was most likely the key to starting the mission. Number one could not tolerate song Qing’s provocation, which would cause the mission to fail.
“Brother, what should we do to leave this place?”
Number one’s actions immediately drew the bow-wielding man’s attention away.
Maybe it was the hard and dry fish that made him lose his appetite, or maybe it was number one’s words that hit him where it hurt. He put down the food in his hand and said,”
“We can’t get out.” He shook his head and said this with a dejected expression.
He repeated,”
“We can’t get out! There’s no exit here.” He emphasized,” you can only enter,
you can’t leave.
He looked at the confusion on number one’s face and laughed bitterly,
“There is no exit here.”
Everyone was stunned by his words. Number one tilted his head and stared at
him,”
brother,” he frowned,”
“What do you mean by that?”
“You still don’t understand?” The man said calmly,” this is like another dimension. In gaming terms, the huge wave that sent us in that day is like a portal. We broke through the dimension wall and entered this world. We are in a different world from the outside world. There is no door between us, so how are you going to get out?”
When the bow-wielding men heard his words, they all lowered their heads in unison.
Number one was shocked,”
“No way out?” His surprised tone was 70% fake and 30% true. This Lost City was a small world of its own mission and was not connected to the outside world. In fact, everyone had already guessed this long ago.
“If the huge wave that engulfed the ship that day is the key to connecting the two passages, if the huge wave appears again, will we be able to get out?” The man in the lead did not get excited when he heard number one’s words. He seemed to be used to hearing such questions. When number one said this, the corners of his mouth even curled up, revealing a slightly mocking smile.
“In theory, you are right.” He spread out his hands, but where do the waves come from?”
His other hand grabbed the ground and grabbed a handful of sand. The fine sand slipped through his fingers again.
“The lost city has already surfaced! It’s cursed!” He threw the sand in his hand away, it has been banished! It doesn’t belong to our world anymore!”
As he said this, he seemed to realize that he had lost his composure. He reached out his index finger and pushed his forehead.
“I’m sorry, I lost my composure.”
After meeting song qingxiao that night, she had repeatedly made requests to him, which had already provoked his displeasure. At this time, number one’s words had become an outlet for his anger.
He quickly calmed down.
in fact, there’s no wind or rain here. We’ve been living here for many years, but we haven’t found the exit. If possible, we want to leave more than you! His eyelids drooped and he shook his head.
but I’m sorry, there’s none. This is a huge cage created by the creator. We’re trapped!
“A curse?” Song qingxiao ignored the bow-wielding man’s gloomy face and asked,”
“Which kind of curse are you referring to?”
When the man with the bow heard her question, he clenched his fists again and again. He felt that this woman really didn’t know how to read people s expressions.
Everyone had saved them from the giant spider’s mouth and given them food, but this woman was not only ungrateful, but she also had a lot of problems.
However, every question hit the bow-wielding man’s sore spot, and his displeasure with song Qing had reached its limit.
“Do you think that the existence of those human-faced spiders is not a curse? There was a hint of hostility in his words. As soon as he said that, the other people with bows seemed to sense his dissatisfaction and slowly moved behind him.
At the same time, the other trial-takers could not help but move closer to song qingxiao. The two sides were in a stalemate.
“That’s true.” The instigator didn’t seem to hear the hostility in the man’s words. After nodding, he asked,”
“Why would you say this is a cage?”
As everyone knew, the existence of the cage was to imprison criminals who had made mistakes, is there any unforgivable existence in this Lost City?”
The veins on the back of the man’s hand twitched, the existence of those terrifying human-faced spiders, isn’t that a crime?
Song qingxiao smiled sweetly. This smile diluted the coldness between her brows.
“How can that be? According to what you said, they were forced to change after the city fell into the sea to adapt to the environment. They are a new species.” She saw that the man in the lead wanted to speak, but he didn’t have the chance to.
■’Even if it’s a mutual killing relationship with humans, it’s not a crime. You say this is a cage, is there any other reason?”
The man took a deep breath, almost unable to maintain his composure.
“I said the wrong thing, okay?” He clenched his fist and stood up, giving a look to the people beside him.
“It’S getting late. Everyone should rest first. We still have to travel tomorrow.” Song qingxiao’s repeated questions had obviously exhausted his patience, and he didn’t want to waste any more time with them.
When he said this, his attitude was much stronger than when he had asked the crowd to follow him. From the bow-wielding people who were staring at the trial-takers, it seemed that these people were not prepared to let the trial-takers leave at all..
