21: Kun Kun: You can't lead us to our deaths!
Ye Bai swept his gaze over Hua Chenyu standing behind him, and after lingering for less than three seconds, he turned and walked in the other direction.
Just as Ye Bai had walked less than a few meters away.
He heard Meng Ziyi's exclamation.
"They're out!"
Meng Ziyi's sudden exclamation sent a jolt through everyone's hearts.
Hua Chenyu, Zhang Dada, and Wu Jing all looked toward the stone cave in terror.
They saw those Corpse Beetles charging toward them like imposing generals.
The grass they passed through rustled loudly.
"Run, hurry!"
Reba's Face was even paler than before.
She now completely believed Ye Bai's words; these were Corpse Beetles, and these things would keep chasing them.
Yang Chaoyue, Yang Mi, Bai Lu, and Meng Ziyi subconsciously ran in the direction of Ye Bai.
Meanwhile, Zhang Dada, Huang Zitao, Cai Xukun, and Hua Chenyu were all stunned.
Especially Hua Chenyu...
His eyes were filled with shock and astonishment.
Was Ye Bai really right?
Did those bugs really chase after them?
"Still standing there? Run, hurry!"
Huang Zitao was the first to snap out of it; seeing Hua Chenyu still standing there, he anxiously called out to him.
Hua Chenyu suddenly came to his senses. Seeing Yang Mi and Wu Jing following Ye Bai, he grabbed his luggage and chased after them. With his guitar still strapped to his back, he stumbled as he pursued Yang Mi and the others.
[Holy crap! Was Brother Ye Bai right about everything? They actually chased after them?]
[In other words, are these really Corpse Beetles? And they will chase them relentlessly? Is this for real?]
[Damn! Doesn't that mean my Da Mimi will be hunted at any moment? This show is deadly!]
[My Reba! What kind of place is this? How could there be such terrifying things here? And where did these Corpse Beetles come from? Can someone explain?]
[Production team, shouldn't you give us an explanation? What is going on? Isn't this an exploration of the Forbidden Ground? How did it become so terrifying?]
[My Lulu!! Run, hurry!!!]
The fans, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, became even more nervous.
They watched with worry as Da Mimi and the others were hunted, hoping now that they could just run faster.
Regardless of anything else, protecting one's own life was more important.
Ye Bai led them to the top of the hillside; he turned around and looked at the Corpse Beetles in hot pursuit behind them.
He was speechless.
Before coming here, he had thought he might encounter danger, but he never expected to be hunted by Corpse Beetles.
If not for the sake of playing Zhang Qilin, he would have really wanted to curse those Corpse Beetles out.
Are they sick? He hadn't done anything to them; was it necessary to chase them so relentlessly?
And who was the person raising these Corpse Beetles?
Thinking of this, Ye Bai couldn't help but pause.
He didn't seem to find any legends about this place in Zhang Qilin's memories...
Could there be a story here that he didn't know about?
But if Zhang Qilin didn't know about this place, he wouldn't have known the general terrain of this Forbidden Ground, right?
Ye Bai was a bit confused. Could it be that his role-play percentage wasn't high enough? That was why he didn't have much information?
Thinking about it, he felt this was very likely.
He followed Zhang Qilin's memories and walked into the rainforest.
Calling it a rainforest was less accurate than calling it a giant urn; this place was surrounded by mountains on all sides, but the center was the true rainforest.
Ye Bai went down the hillside and saw a river appear before him. His brows furrowed slightly; he walked to one side, sweeping his gaze across the grass, as if looking for something.
Meanwhile, Yang Mi and Reba came down from the mountain; their bodies were already soaked by the heavy rain.
But they had no time to worry about their disheveled state; they followed Ye Bai to the foot of the mountain, and when they saw the river before them, they were stunned.
This was bad...
"It's over, Sister Mi! Are we just waiting to die?"
Reba looked at the rainforest river in front of her, then at the Corpse Beetles behind her; her already pale Face turned ashen.
Now they were completely waiting for death.
Entering the water meant death, and not entering the water also meant death.
Yang Mi stood there blankly, her breathing even more rapid than before, her mind in chaos.
Was there really no way out this time?
"It's over! Are we just waiting to die? I don't want to die!"
Zhang Dada sat down on the ground with a thud, looking at the rainforest before him with a mournful Face.
Cai Xukun's expression wasn't much better at this moment; he sat down on the ground, ignoring the mud beneath him, and began to cry aloud.
"Wu Jing, this is all because of you! If you hadn't led us to that cave, we wouldn't have encountered those bugs. This is all your fault."
Seeing Wu Jing come over, Zhang Dada loudly accused him.
It was all his fault; if it weren't for him, they wouldn't have encountered those things, and they wouldn't have ended up in this situation.
Zhang Dada's mental defenses had completely collapsed. Listening to the rustling sounds coming from the grass on the hilltop, he had lost all reason, blaming Wu Jing in his heart.
Cai Xukun felt the same way. "Brother Jing, we trusted you, but you can't lead us to our deaths! Now that this has happened, can't you think of a solution?"
After hearing what Zhang Dada and Cai Xukun said, Huang Zitao and Hua Chenyu both cast looks full of blame and resentment at Wu Jing.
Although they didn't speak, those looks said everything.
It was Wu Jing's fault; if they hadn't gone to that cave, this wouldn't have happened.
Bai Lu, Yang Chaoyue, and Meng Ziyi were also in despair, standing there at a loss.
The thought that they might be poisoned to death by the bugs made them feel even more desperate.
However, they were still very grateful for Wu Jing's care; after all, since they arrived here, Wu Jing had put in a lot of effort.
But after hearing such words from Zhang Dada and Cai Xukun, they really couldn't listen anymore.
"Are you guys even men? Brother Jing led you to find a cave to shelter from the rain; you don't appreciate it, and instead, you're here blaming Brother Jing? When you entered the cave, why didn't you say you wouldn't go in?"
Yang Chaoyue was the first to stand up and retort to Zhang Dada.
This man was truly hateful; from the moment they came in until now, he had been blaming this and that, but he hadn't said a word about the things he had done himself...
"You..."
"Now that these things have come out, don't you think about whose fault it really is?" Bai Lu knew she wouldn't live much longer, so she might as well speak up for Brother Jing. Since everyone was doomed to die anyway, why worry about Face?
"At the time, Ye Bai and Brother Jing told you not to speak. Who was it that disturbed those bugs? Now that something has happened, you blame Brother Jing? Then can I also blame you for disturbing the bugs?"
Meng Ziyi's Face was full of fury, and she glared at Cai Xukun with eyes full of rage.
