Imperial City Investigative Department

Chapter 444: Thorny Monster ([-]st update)
Xu Da, Gu You and the others were very nervous at the moment, but this change in smell made them unable to help but search their minds for legends related to ghosts, and then transformed them into images that kept flashing in their minds.

Even Xing Yun didn't say any more nonsense, and a few people quietly moved forward bit by bit.

Suddenly there were several loud rumbling noises!

The surrounding environment was originally eerie and terrifying, and several people had their own concerns. The sudden loud noise seemed to hit their hearts, and Xing Yun and Lao Er screamed in surprise.

"It's Tiangang knocking on the door! Don't be afraid." Wu Chen comforted him with a trembling voice.

Now that they knew what it was, they felt much better. They had all seen the way Tiangang knocked on the door after being locked out before, and they all felt relieved.

Fortunately, Tiangang is very self-aware and knocks on it for a few times before stopping.

The group of people bowed and walked forward cautiously and thoughtfully. Suddenly, a black ball of something came out of nowhere and flew directly into the boss's face. The boss screamed and waved his hands subconsciously. , the person also moved without hesitation, and was about to fall into the pool. Wu Chen quickly took action, grabbing the boss with one hand, and using the other hand to hit the black mass on his face.

Unexpectedly, the thing was covered with short thorns. Wu Chen's hand was pricked. He quickly retracted his hand, but at the same time, he flicked the blood droplets on his fingertips towards the black object. The black object was as big as a baby. After shouting twice, he finally let go of the boss's face and ran back into the darkness.

Several people looked at the boss in horror.

"This is... a loss of appearance!" Xing Yun couldn't help but say.

I saw the boss' face covered in blood.

"Is the water in this pool usable? Let the boss wash it first, maybe..."

"If you touch something in this pool... you will die!" Wu Chen interrupted Gu You, squeezed his fingers, and said to the boss: "Hurry up and shut up!"

The boss opened his mouth in pain. It was obvious that the action of opening his mouth was very painful for him.

Wu Chen flicked a drop of blood from his finger into the boss's mouth, and the wound on his finger healed immediately.

"The wound punctured by the needle should not be disfigured. As long as it is not poisonous, at most there will be some pockmarks on the face in the future." Wu Chen said and looked around: "You guys try to protect your face. That thing is extremely fast. I heard When it arrived, it had already jumped in front of the boss. This thing is troublesome, you..."

Wu Chen suddenly paused, and Xing Yun asked nervously: "What did you see again?"

"I didn't see anything. I suddenly thought of a possibility. Just now I wanted you to draw your swords so that you can react quickly if something comes close. But... I thought of a picture. In this environment, It’s easy for you to accidentally injure your own people.”

The boss said softly: "Just now, I wanted to draw my sword, and the thing stuck on my face, but I seemed to see someone attacking me in front of me."

"Are you in severe pain now?" Xu Da asked worriedly.

"It's better than before. When that thing left, I felt like my whole face was picked off and taken away."

Xing Yun asked Wu Chen in a low voice: "Why is your blood so magical?"

"After you are destined to leave, you'd better keep this matter in your stomach!" Wu Chen said viciously.

"I mean, you gave us a little bit of your blood to put on your face, and that thing..."

"What if it comes straight to your butt next time?" Wu Chen asked with eyes wide open.

"The clothes are very thick in other places, so it may not be able to pierce it if it wants to." Xing Yun said with a playful smile.Wu Chen thought about it and felt that it was right. The thorns on that thing might contain some strange medicine. If one of them became delirious or had hallucinations, that would be a big trouble.

Xu Dashi said: "Let's use his blood at a critical moment..."

"What are you afraid of? I'll give him some good medicine to replenish his qi and blood when he gets back. I'll make sure he has more qi and blood!"

Wu Chen snorted and asked: "Have you never heard that rare things are valuable? If you can give birth to blood like mine by taking those ordinary medicines, how can I be so stingy?!"

Gu You became anxious when he heard this: "Don't listen to Xing Yun's nonsense. We were not careful before, but now that we know it, we won't let it succeed. You'd better save some of your blood."

Wu Chen was hesitating whether to cut his finger, when suddenly there was a sound in the distance, followed by a human voice:
"Are you done? Are you really not worried about the people on the other side of the river? They are still muttering endlessly here! I am too lazy to waste time with you, so turn on the light! Tear their clothes first, and I want to see you Can I bathe them in your blood?"

As soon as the man finished speaking, the surroundings suddenly lit up. This time, Xing Yun and the others were shocked. They looked around in horror, and then looked in the direction where the words had just come from. Standing there was a man in Jin Yihua. Convinced young man.

At this time, the young man, like Xing Yun and others, looked frightened, because Wu Chen was already beside him, and Wu Chen's hand was on the man's neck.

"You can't wait? Do you think you are bound to win?"

Wu Chen squinted his eyes and looked around the cave. The black monsters that had hurt the boss before could now be seen densely packed, spread flat on the wall like they were embedded in the mountain. They were not big, only bigger than the palm of their hand, and It was completely black, but Wu Chen didn't notice it before.

Wu Chen looked back at the glimmer of light and couldn't help but say, 'That's it! '

That glimmer of light was indeed an oil lamp. Behind the small oil lamp was a large black coffin. It was so big that Wu Chen had to raise his head, and its size almost exactly matched the place where it was placed. No wonder Wu Chen couldn't see clearly what was next to the glimmer of light. What is it.

"You, don't do whatever you want, the lives of those people are in my hands!" the young man threatened with a trembling voice.

"Oh?" Wu Chen raised his head and looked at the roof of the cave: "You came down from above? We happened to be discussing things. I didn't pay attention, and you took advantage of this loophole." Wu Chen said, using a little more force on his hand.

The young man suddenly ran out of breath and stretched out his hand to pry Wu Chen's fingers, but it was in vain.

"Take us out, and I'll let you go. Whether you can survive in the end depends on your own destiny. If you refuse, then you can only die for your clan members first. That thing on the wall can't stop me."

The young man struggled to say a few words, but Wu Chen's hands relaxed.

"You, cough, don't talk nonsense. Mang Ying is extremely fast and has sharp teeth. Your companions' martial arts are useless. Once they fall into the blood pool, they will immediately turn into resentful spirits and come to kill you..."

"I really don't believe it, how about I try it on you first." As he said that, Wu Chen exerted a little force, and the young man's feet left the ground.

In panic, the young man shouted with all his strength: "I'll let you go."

"Open the exit at the top of the cave!"

"You, first, let me down."

"Open the cave roof exit!"
