Chapter 264 Worms on the Ground [Please vote, please subscribe]

Bang bang bang, gunfire suddenly rang out from behind.

Gu Jun's heart tightened, and he turned around and ran towards the return road, "Let's go!" Lou Xiaoning, Peacock, and Mo Qing were also running back.

They walked less than two hundred meters from the dividing line. From this distance, shouts could be heard, but apart from a few isolated gunshots, there was no other sound. When a firefight occurs, there can be no other sounds.

Can the fog still silence the sound? Then why can we still hear gunshots?

Gu Jun concentrated on distinguishing, but he didn't even feel the slightest whisper of illusion... It was this dead silence that made him extremely uneasy...

The distance was very short. Everyone ran at full speed and returned to the dividing line in about thirty seconds. The scene of the wasteland here remained unchanged, but Uncle Dan and the others were gone.

"What are you doing, where are the people..." Lou Xiaoning muttered nervously, looking around with the pistol he held up, but found no target to attack.

Within the surrounding visual range, there are no nine team members including Uncle Dan, Feng Wei, Li Meijia, etc., and there are no enemies or wild beasts. There are no residual limbs, blood or other traces of struggle on the ground, only a few bullet casings, which are conspicuous fell on the mossy ground.

There were nine shell casings in total, and all nine bullets were used.

What made Gu Jun even more heartbroken was that judging from the traces, the nine bullets were not fired in the same direction, and it did not look like they were fired at the same target.

"Just, that's it, missing..." Zu Ge slapped himself in horror, "Suddenly they all disappeared."

"Impossible." Lou Xiaoning was from the Operations Department and knew both investigation and counter-investigation. How could she just accept this situation? She stared at the weeds on the ground looking for clues with her left eye. But she searched around and found nothing, which only made herself more anxious.

"I think... there is a situation." Gu Jun looked at the fog-shrouded sky, "They were captured by something."

After hearing what he said, everyone immediately looked towards the sky, unable to see through the gray fog, but was there... a huge black shadow moving above it?

If Uncle Dan was shooting at a flying target, that would explain why the bullet casings were scattered like this...

But is that really the case?

"Mr. Nightmare Man, I, I have made a little discovery." Zuko said surprisingly. Zuko has Zuko's talent. Its nose is more sensitive than anyone else here, and it can smell some subtle particles in the air. The change. Now it is forced to sit in the same boat as them, thinking not of them but of itself.

"What did you find?" Gu Jun asked it to point it out immediately, and Zu Ge took them a little more than ten meters away and asked them to look at a weed.

Peacock used a long knife to open up the grass, and Catherine in the same body suddenly exclaimed: "Oh damn..."

Mo Qing, Jin Zhu and others gathered around, so Tom and others also made sounds of fear and disgust, like dark creatures being hit by old seals.

Gu Jun's eyes were focused. They were a large number of worms, squirming on the bare ground. They were light red. Each worm was as small as a thread. There was no doubt that they could be crushed and flattened by stepping on them. , but there are too many of them, stacked on top of each other and rolled into a ball.

Perhaps under a microscope, they will have another terrifying appearance.

But even now, seeing them squirming, tumbling, and entangled with each other made his heart feel very uncomfortable, as if his whole body was being drilled by insects.

Normally, he wouldn't have such a strong reaction to such filth.

During the surgery to remove parasites, he could separate the worms from the blurred flesh and blood with his own hands, and he could remain aloof.

But now, the more Gu Jun looked at him, the more he became restless.

Is it because of the terrible scene that flashed through my heart? The mutilated limbs of Uncle Dan and others quickly rotted and turned into piles of thread-like worms...

"These insects are weird..." Lou Xiaoning also frowned and said to Gu Jun: "It feels very similar to that time when I looked at the red door. I seemed to see a lot of corpses decaying."

Behind the red door she was looking at was the stone chamber. Gu Jun knew that inside the stone chamber leading to the altar on the ground, there had been a mountain of Yiwen corpses.

In that place that symbolizes the mother's womb, a new life is born.

Lou Xiaoning also feels this way now, which shows that this kind of bug is indeed related to the rotten corpse...

"Is this the only one?" Gu Jun asked Zu Ge, his heart sinking.

In the dreamland, there are different laws, especially this is a house of worms.

His vague suspicion kept coming up, whether these weird and twisted bugs could be Uncle Egg and the others...

"There's only this bunch." Zu Ge said with a certain tone, "There were no these bugs before, they just appeared. But let's not worry about it. There are really all kinds of bugs in the Worm House. It is said that the more bugs there are, the different worlds will be different. The more adventurers come, the more worm types it has, a collection."

Lou Xiaoning also had that thought after hearing this, "Damn..." She stared at the pile of bugs on the ground, "Uncle Egg..."

Zu Ge felt her anger and murderous intent and hurriedly said: "I didn't say that! I don't know either. I really don't know. Our Zu Ge is not that knowledgeable yet."

Peacock and the others also reacted and felt chills in their hearts. Catherine whispered: "No, it should be everywhere. Why are they concentrated in this patch of grass?"

"Don't worry about it." Gu Jun took a deep breath and suppressed the mess, "Don't touch those insects, they may be some kind of parasite. Let's go, time is running out."

Stand here too

It didn't help, even if it was just a minute wasted, they didn't have many minutes to waste now.

"Uncle Egg...Uncle Egg?" Lou Xiaoning wanted to say something several times, but in the end he just cursed and his left eye turned slightly red.

There is no other way, their team is a suicide squad, and they are here with a mission that is much more important than themselves...

"Everyone, be careful." As the captain, Gu Jun could only make a rational decision and walk forward. If things turned around, it would be at the front.

But how could he suppress the turbulent thoughts in his heart? They just separated for a while...

who is it? Is the other party watching them from the dark?

Uncle Dan's kind smile flashed across his face again, his heart ached, and he murmured to himself: You old guy, don't die, you haven't taken me to the club to play yet.

Peacock and Mo Qing also became gloomy, with resentment in their eyes. Although they have not known Uncle Egg for a long time, they have already received a lot of care from this humorous elder. It was Uncle Egg who taught them how to integrate into the Tianji Bureau...

Now the life and death of Uncle Dan and eight other colleagues are uncertain, which makes everyone very uncomfortable and their breath is even lower.

But their pace was faster, passing through the heavy fog, getting closer and closer to the manor.

Quack, quack, suddenly a group of black crows flew over the sky. At this moment, it seemed like an ominous sign.

They could already see those strange buildings not far ahead, but following the crow, the figure of the woman in linen clothes they had seen before ran past again. This time they could see more clearly. The woman was dragging a girl with pigtails several years old, as if a mother and daughter were fleeing.

Through the fog, the woman's wailing voice could be heard faintly: "Let's go, go faster! Don't be caught up..."

Lou Xiaoning, Peacock and the others looked at Gu Jun, do you want to shout? Or catch up?

At this time, another voice came, the voice of a young and tired child:

"No, Mom, we are all going to die."
