Wilderness Redemption Tour

Chapter 281 Massacre

"Ha...ha...ha..." Lin Yan frowned, holding onto the cave wall and breathing heavily. Being surrounded by the foul-smelling air again, no one could be happy.

Arthur was also breathing heavily. Although his body looked to have returned to its previous state after a serious illness, judging from his appearance after the intense exercise, it was obvious that the damage to his internal organs had not yet healed.

Charles was the calmest of the three. Not only did he not show any signs of hypoxia, his chest didn't even rise or fall much, as if the exercise just now was not considered strenuous for him. While Lin Yan and Arthur were catching their breath, Charles walked alone to the passage on the right side of the fork in the road and listened attentively to the movements inside.

After listening for a while, Charles saw Lin Yan and Arthur coming towards him after recovering. He lowered his voice, shook his head and said, "I didn't hear anything unusual. When we were struggling in the left passage just now, we made quite a noise. I was worried that we would be discovered by them. It seems that the people inside are sleeping very soundly."

"Maybe it's just far away. Don't take it lightly." Arthur reminded, then walked past Charles into the passage.

The width of this passage is about the same as the one on the left, but its length is only a dozen meters. After turning a corner, the mountain wall on the right disappears, and a circular cave appears at the lower right of the road, while the right side of the road is replaced by a fence made of wooden boards like a wooden fence.

The originally horizontal road surface began to extend downward. With the help of the light from the lantern hanging on the fence, Lin Yan could tell that this downward slope extended all the way to the bottom of the cave on the right.

There were a lot of miscellaneous items scattered on the ground at the bottom of the cave, and a few kerosene lamps were placed on several crates in various places in the cave. Standing at the top of this slope, Lin Yan and others could clearly see the members of the Murfree family sleeping on the ground. There were men and women, and the number of people was about ten. In addition to these people, Lin Yan also saw a wooden cage that was the same as the wooden cage placed at the entrance of the cave. This cage was right below where he was standing. If there was no oil lamp that happened to be near the cage, Lin Yan would not even be able to find the existence of the cage.

This is not the point. The point is that there is someone in the cage, a person wearing white clothes. Through the gap in the wooden cage, Lin Yan vaguely saw the other person curled up on the ground, motionless. Judging from the other person's figure, it should be a woman, but it is impossible to tell whether this person is asleep or dead. However, Lin Yan tends to think that the other person is just asleep. If she is dead, why would the people of the Murfree family keep a corpse?

Arthur and Charles also noticed the man in the cage. "That man is probably a survivor of the stagecoach at the door," Charles whispered.

Arthur nodded. "It seems he is not dead yet. He is lucky to have met us."

The three of them tiptoed down the slope to the cave below, tightly grasped their weapons, and silently launched a one-sided massacre.

Lin Yan had killed someone at close range in the Gray family's manor, so he had some "work experience". On the way down, Lin Yan replaced the machete in his hand with a dagger. In this scenario, the dagger was more handy for him.

Looking at the defenseless members of the Murfree family sleeping soundly in front of him, and thinking about what these people did to innocent passers-by, Lin Yan walked up to them, leaned down, and stabbed the dagger into their throats without any psychological burden.

The Murfree family member, who looked to be the same age as him, tilted his head and died without any struggle or sound. Next to him, another older Murfree family member opened his eyes dazedly after hearing the noise. What caught his eyes was a pair of cowboy boots with half-dried mud on the edges. Before he could react, a white but strong hand covered his mouth. He was about to resist when he heard a "hiss" sound. This sound was very familiar to him. It was the sound he and his family would make and hear every few days. It was the sound of a sharp weapon piercing the flesh.

When he heard the voice, his strength drained away rapidly. After only a few seconds, his wide-open eyes lost their spirit. Lin Yan shrank back and stretched out his arm to pull out the dagger stuck in the opponent's throat. When he killed the first target and pulled out the dagger stuck in the opponent's throat, he pulled it out in a hurry. Because he was too close, the blood spurting from the wound stained his shirt, which made him feel regretful and annoyed.

He stood up and looked at Arthur and Charles. The speed at which they harvested lives was much faster than Lin Yan's, and now they had killed the fourth one. Seeing this, Lin Yan hurriedly walked towards the next target, who was also the last member of the Murfree family in this area.

This is a woman, at least judging from her clothes, she looks like a woman, but this person is just like the member of the Murfree family that Lin Yan had just met. They all have messy hair, exude an unpleasant odor, and have deformed faces, which makes people unable to feel the slightest sympathy for them.

After practicing with two people, Lin Yan's assassination moves became more proficient. He covered the mouth, stabbed, and drew the knife. The whole action was done in one go, and he really had the style of a professional killer.

After confirming that there were no other living people in this place except the three of them and the person in the cage, Arthur did not rush to check the condition of the person in the cage. Instead, he pointed to another cave connected to this cave and said, "There is no rush to save the people. Let's go see if there is anyone else over there first."

The entrance that Arthur pointed to was right next to the wooden cage. When they came down just now, due to the angle, they did not notice the entrance below. It was not until they went down into the cave that they realized that this cave was not the end of the road.

Inside the cave is a winding downward road. From here on, the lighting tool is changed from kerosene lamps to torches. It seems that the temperature below is far less warm than the upper level, and open flames are still needed to provide heat.

After walking a short distance, Arthur raised his hand to signal everyone to stop. "Someone is coming." Arthur whispered.

"Moss, is that you?" The other party obviously heard the footsteps of Lin Yan and others, so he asked.

Oh no! We're about to be discovered!

Lin Yan and others looked at each other and subconsciously tightened their weapons.

When no one answered, the man called out another name: "Ben?"

Seeing that he was about to be exposed, Arthur no longer bothered to hide, and rushed forward with the machete in his hand.

The sudden heavier footsteps immediately alerted the other party.

"There are enemies!" he shouted without hesitation.
