Chapter 235

Ximen Mei had already successfully dug out that Blood Origin Mushroom at this time. She didn't use her hands to take it, but picked up the blood-colored silk cloth on the ground, covered the blood-colored mushroom with it, wrapped it up through the silk cloth, and then put it into the black wooden box together with the blood-colored silk cloth.

After carefully doing all this, the woman let out a long breath.

Wang Yu smelled a faint bloody scent from the blood-colored silk cloth; it seemed it had also been soaked in the essence blood of a demonic beast.

Just like this, Ximen Mei took out another piece of silk cloth and a wooden box again, and began to dig the second Blood Origin Mushroom.

Wang Yu did not continue to watch, but walked away a few steps and looked around to see if there could be any other gains.

After all, this Local Spirit Spring looked extraordinary at first glance. Besides the Blood Origin Mushrooms, maybe he could find other valuable things.

However, the entire edge of the pool was covered with small white stones, and at a glance, it was all a bare expanse. This was also the reason why the two could find the Blood Origin Mushrooms at a glance earlier.

But he was still not reconciled, so he immediately moved closer to the side of the pool, stuck his head in a bit, and looked to see if there could be any discoveries on the exposed inner wall of the pool.

As a result, except for some pale blue, moss-like things, there was nothing very eye-catching.

No, what is that?

Wang Yu was still in overclocking mode at this moment. When his eyes inadvertently swept into the pool, his eyes actually pierced directly through the surface of the water and saw a black little hole on a certain inner wall less than half a foot deep below.

It didn't look big, only as thick as an arm, but the entrance of the hole seemed very smooth and didn't look like it was formed naturally.

In surprise, Wang Yu turned his head to look at Ximen Mei, who was not far away and had already successfully harvested the second Blood Origin Mushroom and was preparing to dig the third one.

At this time, she was concentrating on the work in her hands and had no time to look around.

Wang Yu looked at the blue banner phantom in his hand again, measured the coverage range of this banner flag slightly, and immediately walked a few more steps to the water's edge where the little hole was. He swept his divine sense toward the bottom of the pool, and his brows frowned slightly.

This pool water was indeed unusual; it actually blocked his divine sense tightly, making it impossible to probe into the little hole at all.

Wang Yu hesitated slightly in his heart, and then had a decision. He immediately took a deep breath, and wisps of golden mist immediately appeared on one arm, turning into a golden arm guard that wrapped the entire arm.

Wang Yu flipped one hand again, pulled out a bone spear from his storage bag, grabbed the spear shaft with one hand, lay directly on the edge of the pool, and gently poked into the little hole under the water with the object in his hand.

"Bang."

This little hole was surprisingly shallow. He only moved his wrist slightly, and the end of the bone spear poked to the bottom, and he vaguely touched something hard.

Seeing that there were no living creatures inside, Wang Yu felt relieved. He withdrew the bone spear, threw it back into the storage bag, and reached directly into the little hole with the arm wrapped in the golden arm guard. As a result, he touched a round, hard thing.

He retracted his arm, took out the thing in the hole, then stood up and glanced at the thing in his hand. It was a milky white oval stone, and the surface still had patterns like blood threads, but it was unusually cold.

Just when Wang Yu wanted to observe this thing carefully, a sudden exclamation came from Ximen Mei not far away, causing him to turn his head to look over.

He saw that the woman, who had just wrapped the third Blood Origin Mushroom with silk cloth, was looking at the ground with a snow-white face.

"Shijie, what happened?" Wang Yu threw the thing in his hand into the storage bag and walked over to ask, but after glancing at the ground, he was also shocked in his heart.

He saw that the small pit where the three blood-colored mushrooms had been dug out was now bubbling with bright red blood, and there was more and more of it. Soon, it filled the three small pits and began to overflow rapidly to the outside.

"Something is wrong, let's go quickly," Wang Yu said without hesitation.

"It is a bit evil. Shidi, stay close to me; I will take you away with an Earth-Escaping Talisman."

Ximen Mei could also be considered a person with quite a lot of experience. She quickly put the thing in her hand into the wooden box, put it into the storage bag, and then flipped one hand, immediately producing a yellow talisman. The surface was covered with pale silver spirit patterns, and at a glance, its quality was extraordinary.

Seeing this, Wang Yu grabbed the blue banner flag phantom in his hand and immediately walked over half a step.

Ximen Mei flicked the yellow talisman in her hand, and a ball of yellow light emerged, with colored runes vaguely floating inside, covering both of them underneath.

The two felt their bodies lighten, and the yellow light took them directly toward the top of the cave.

But the next moment, a muffled "bang" sound.

The yellow light sank into the top of the cave and disappeared without a trace, but two figures fell from above unexpectedly.

Wang Yu only twisted his body, readjusted his posture in mid-air, and landed steadily on the ground with both feet. Then, seeing the figure above falling with an exclamation, he subconsciously reached out with both arms, and a fragrant, soft body immediately fell into his arms.

It was exactly this woman, Ximen Mei.

And he happened to be holding the beautiful woman in front of him, who looked like she was seventeen or eighteen, in a "bridal carry" posture, feeling nothing but the faint scent of a woman between his mouth and nose, mixed with some sweet, pleasant smell.

As the two faced each other, they both felt that this posture was really too ambiguous.

Ximen Mei's face turned red, and without thinking, she swung her arm, and a slap came directly.

Wang Yu was shocked, shook his arms, and threw this "Ximen Shijie" out directly, and waved his hands repeatedly to explain:

"Ximen Shijie, it's a misunderstanding. Just now it was all Shidi's subconscious action, not intentionally trying to take advantage of Shijie."

Because Wang Yu used clever force, Ximen Mei landed very easily and stood firm, but her face was blushing, and at the same time, her almond eyes were wide open, staring fiercely at the man in front of her. After a long while, she said unwillingly:

"This matter is not over. After we leave here, this young lady will settle the score with you."

Wang Yu gave a bitter smile. He wanted to explain a few more words, but his gaze suddenly swept to the scene by the pool, his expression became solemn, and he hurriedly reminded:

"Shijie, it's wrong over there. It seems like something is about to come out of the pool water."

"Something is coming out?"

Hearing this, Ximen Mei felt a chill in her heart and immediately turned around to look at the pool as well.

He saw that the milky white pool water in the pool over there had become turbulent at some point. The pool water was rapidly swirling in the pool, vaguely forming a huge vortex, as if some behemoth was about to come out from inside.

And outside the pool was full of bright red blood, almost wrapping the entire pool within it, and it continued to bubble out from the ground, as if it wanted to submerge the entire cave.

"Leave from the entrance."

Seeing this, Ximen Mei said without hesitation, then quickly stuck a cyan talisman on herself. A blue, misty wind blew up all around, wrapping her inside, and she rolled directly toward the cave entrance.

Wang Yu bowed his body slightly, stepped on the ground, and left a large pit in place, shooting toward the cave entrance like a crossbow arrow.
