Chapter 65

In the live streaming room, the visitors and fans were all watching Lin Yi's live stream, looking at the eerie "Corpse Cave." Some were already immersed in the scene, feeling quite tense.

Some were more daring, treating it purely as entertainment.

Everyone was discussing —

"I saw the boatman and the old man climb into the two holes above!"

"2333 Really, they climbed so well!"

"The streamer and these actors are really getting into it! It feels so real! Their faces look like they've seen a ghost!"

"Wu Ye, don't be afraid, come to baby's arms! Baby will protect you!"

"Still, our little brother is calm. That expression, those eyes, ah! I can't take it anymore..."

"Has the floor above reached a climax?"

...

Uncle San, looking at the boatman and the old man who had disappeared, said in frustration, "Damn, we don't have the smell of corpses on us, who knows what might happen!"

He paused and then said, "Panzi, you fought in Vietnam, have you ever eaten human flesh?"

"Are you kidding, Uncle San? When I was in the army, they were already withdrawing, I barely even fired a gun!"

Panzi pointed at Akuai and said, "Akuai, didn't you say your family used to sell human meat buns? You must have eaten a lot when you were a kid."

Akuai, now pale with fear, mumbled, "Nonsense, I was just making it up. Besides, those human meat buns were sold to others. Have you ever seen anyone who sells human meat buns eat them themselves?"

"Alright, everyone, stop arguing," Lin Yi said with a smile, not as tense. He knew what was coming next — the zombies!

As soon as he finished speaking, the boat suddenly shook. Panzi quickly shone the miner's lamp into the water. With the light, everyone saw a huge shadow swim by.

Akuai's face turned white, and he pointed at the water, his jaw trembling, but he couldn't utter a word.

Uncle San slapped him hard and scolded, "Useless! What are you trembling for? My nephew came here for the first time and didn't even make a sound. You've been with us for so long, and you're acting like this?"

"My goodness! Uncle San, that thing is huge! We might not even be enough for a meal."

Akuai, still shaken, looked at the water. He had been sitting on the edge of the boat, but now his butt had moved to the middle, as if he was afraid something would suddenly jump out and snatch him.

"Shut up!" Uncle San glared at him, "We have tools and people. I, the third son of the Wu family, have been digging for so long, what kind of demons and ghosts haven't I seen? Stop talking nonsense here."

Akuai's face was ashen.

Everyone was also focused on the water. In such a narrow space, seeing such a huge thing pass by was bound to be scary.

Lin Yi knew that the huge shadow on the water was actually a large group of corpse beetles.

Corpse beetles — a type of scavenging, social animal, very small, about the size of a ten-year-old's palm. They are often found in tombs, usually feeding on corpses. They wake up quickly when disturbed during their "sleeping period."

If a stranger disturbs them, they will quickly burrow into the stranger's body and eat their flesh. They fear fire but not light.

Lin Yi also moved to the middle of the boat to prevent a corpse beetle from jumping onto him. Being bitten was one thing, but the thought of it was just disgusting!

At this moment, the little brother suddenly raised his right hand and plunged it into the water. The movement was so fast, it was almost a flash of white light. His hand came back with two long fingers holding a black insect.

He threw the insect onto the deck and said, "No need to panic, it was this thing."

Everyone was impressed by his skill, which seemed to be the legendary "two-finger probing" technique of the ancient Fagou Zhonglangjiang.

The skilled Fagou Zhonglangjiang had fingers as steady as a mountain, with great strength, capable of easily breaking small mechanisms in tombs. To master this skill, one had to start training from a young age, and the process was undoubtedly extremely arduous.

Wu Ye, looking at the insect on the deck, was stunned and said, "Isn't this a dragon louse? So the large shadow we saw earlier was just a bunch of water lice swimming by?"

Lin Yi said calmly, "This isn't a dragon louse, it's a corpse beetle."

"Corpse beetle?" Everyone was surprised.

"Indeed, it is a corpse beetle," Uncle San examined it carefully and nodded, looking into the dark depths of the river cave, "Corpse beetles feed on decaying flesh, and there are many where there are dead things. If they eat well, they grow large. It seems there must be a place upstream where a lot of corpses have accumulated, and it's quite large."

"Will this thing bite living people?" Akuai asked Lin Yi timidly, thinking this young man seemed to know more than Uncle San, recognizing the corpse beetle at first glance!

Lin Yi smiled faintly and said, "If it's a normal size, it definitely won't bite people. But look at the size of this one; I can't be sure if it will bite, but I think it will."

The little brother suddenly turned his head towards the depths of the cave and said softly, "I think it might be related to the strange sound we heard earlier. Did anyone hear what it was?"

Everyone shook their heads, indicating they hadn't heard clearly.

Wu Ye, who was experiencing this for the first time, was full of tension and fear, and said, "Regardless of what the sound is, the most important thing now is to get out quickly. We are going against the current, so going back will definitely be faster than coming in. I think we've only been in this cave for less than ten minutes, so getting out shouldn't be a problem."

"Right, right, Little Third Master is right," Da Kui quickly agreed, "Uncle San, just say the word. If we have to, we can climb over the mountain after we get out. I'll carry everything; I'm strong. Losing a day or two won't make much difference. We can dig the tomb faster to make up for it."

Uncle San was silent, looking at Lin Yi and the little brother, and asked, "What do you think?"

Lin Yi waved his hands and said, "I'm fine with either. It's up to everyone."

Whether they went forward to see the "zombies" or turned back and climbed the mountain, he was fine with both. One was more exciting, the other safer.

The little brother said calmly, "I think it's already too late to get out. If those two let us in, they must be confident we can't get out."

"If we don't go out, are we going to wait here until we die?" Panzi looked at the little brother, who glanced at him and then turned his head, closing his eyes to rest.

Panzi, having been rebuffed, said to Uncle San, "I think we can't go forward. Look at Akuai, he'll be scared to death. We should go back. The way in isn't complicated; we might be able to get out. If we really encounter something strange, we'll figure it out!"

"That's the only way," Uncle San nodded, not in favor of taking risks. It was better to be safe.

At this moment, a strange sound came from the depths of the river cave, and it was clearly much closer than before. The sound was like the whispers of countless ghosts, making everyone extremely uncomfortable. Everyone fell silent, and the atmosphere became extremely eerie.

This sound was soul-piercing, gradually making people lose consciousness!

Lin Yi moved and jumped into the water, and with a thought, he temporarily turned off the live stream.

If his guess was correct, the next scene would be quite bloody! He might even have to use a gun, which would be illegal if broadcast.

Everyone also "plop plop" jumped into the water.

As soon as they entered the water, the voices in their heads disappeared.

In the live streaming room, the screen suddenly went black, causing a stir — mobile users, please visit http://m.piaotia.net
