Naturally, there was no problem with the safe points Xia Ruoxi chose.

But unfortunately, Zhao Mu's cultivation was not as good as hers, and he was injured, and even had to carry Yan Bingqing on the road.

In terms of speed and endurance, he is far inferior to Xia Ruoxi.

Therefore, the safe point he chose was not where Xia Ruoxi would temporarily stay.

Safety cannot be guaranteed at all.

Originally, Zhao Mu just wanted to take a short rest, eat something to restore his strength, and then continue on his journey. When he arrived at the safe point chosen by Xia Ruoxi in this plot, he would have a good rest.

But I never thought that the accident would come so suddenly.

If it's just a simple rotten smell, there's no need to be nervous.

After all, along the way, the two had seen more than one dead and rotting animal corpse.

But unfortunately, this stench moves.

What this means is self-evident.

"How to do?"

Yan Bingqing's cold eyes flashed slightly, and she put away her little resentment towards Zhao Mu.

"Don't worry, let's find a place to hide first!"

Based on the foul smell, Zhao Mu could infer that the people approaching them should be zombies whose souls had been invaded by evil spirits and who had lost their minds.

They do not attack consciously, but only act according to their body's instincts.

He guessed that the thing most likely smelled their scent and came closer.

As long as you restrain your breath and hide, and wait for that thing to stay away, you will be safe.

Looking around, Zhao Mu happened to find a place with many rocks piled up deep in the cave. Upon careful observation, he found that there was a small but hidden narrow space under the rocks.

For intelligent creatures, if they enter a cave, they will definitely explore such obvious hiding places.

But for a creature that has lost its mind, if it cannot see something within its sight, then it does not exist, and it will turn around and leave.

"Let's go and hide there!"

Zhao Mu pointed in the direction of the pile of rocks, then threw the uneaten food in his hand on the ground. Without even having time to wipe his hands, he reached out to Yan Bingqing.

“The food on the ground…”

Yan Bingqing reminded.

"It's okay, just throw it here. It can be used to disrupt that thing's judgment."

As Zhao Mu spoke, he deliberately took out some strong-smelling food from the Qiankun Ring and threw it on the ground.

Yan Bingqing didn't understand Xueyuan, so naturally she couldn't understand the deep meaning of Zhao Mu's actions.

But she didn't ask because she trusted Zhao Mu.

When it comes to serious matters, he has always been reliable.

Soon, she felt two warm hands placed there.

This time, there was no stroking at all.

He picked her up directly and steadily.

Sure enough, he did it on purpose before...

A moment later, she was hanging on him like a sack again, and he carried her into the small space under the rocks.

The space is really small, so small that two people can almost fit together.

"Senior Sister, can you still hold your breath?"

The warm breath sprayed on her face made Yan Bingqing feel a little itchy. The current posture of the two of them also made her a little afraid to look into his eyes.

"no!"

Hearing this, Zhao Mu looked at Yan Bingqing seriously, "Senior Sister, don't call me a bad guy!"

???

Yan Bingqing was a little puzzled.

But the next moment, the two hands that suddenly climbed up her waist made her suddenly understand.

uh~

Yan Bingqing, whose mouth was suddenly blocked, had her originally cold and indifferent eyes widened in an instant.

It's like this again, without even telling me in advance.

Bad guy!

However, she did not resist because she understood that Zhao Mu was helping her to control her breath.

Step~

Tread~

There was a sound of footsteps outside, and it became clearer and clearer.

Zhao Mu and Yan Bingqing both knew that the thing was coming.

Through the gaps in the rubble, Zhao Mu could clearly see what the thing looked like.

It's a dog with three heads.

It is very large and much stronger than an average calf.

The three heads are also completely different. The head on the far left is emitting orange-red flames. The one in the middle is no different from a normal dog's head, except that it looks a little more ferocious. The head on the right is completely opposite to the one on the left, emitting a hint of icy aura.

"Three-headed mastiff!"

Zhao Mu recognized this thing.

Slightly shocked, he didn't expect that the first zombie he encountered would be the king of the demon race, the three-headed mastiff.

It's not as rotten as I imagined.

The reason why it emits a foul smell is that there is a wound on its shoulder the size of an adult's palm. It must have been injured during a fight with other zombies, and then it slowly festered.

Because, after the soul is invaded by evil spirits, although it can still move and even has all its instincts, it is already dead.

Therefore, once injured, it is impossible to recover and will only fester over time.

When the festering spreads to the whole body, the person will completely collapse and become the nourishment for the evil spirit in the blood abyss.

Just like when Zhao Mu just opened his eyes, he saw an unknown beast beside him that was emitting a foul smell and had already rotted away to the point where its original appearance was unrecognizable.

Of course, due to the special environment of the Blood Abyss, this process is much slower than in the outside world, and it is almost calculated in hundreds or even thousands of years.

Yan Bingqing's mouth is very soft and sweet.

But Zhao Mu had no intention of enjoying the food at the moment. Instead, he focused all his attention on the three-headed mastiff.

The three-headed mastiff, born from the royal family of monsters, is equivalent to the human's Transcendent Realm as soon as it is born, and as soon as it reaches adulthood, it can enter the Tiangang Realm.

This three-headed mastiff looks so strong that it is obviously an adult.

The minimum strength is Tiangang realm.

Once he and Yan Bingqing are exposed, they will surely die.

Reason told him that as long as they maintained their current state, the three-headed mastiff would not be able to discover them and would leave soon.

But everything he saw made him terrified.

The three heads of the three-headed mastiff were now tearing into the various meats he had thrown on the ground.

In almost an instant, the scene was in chaos.

Step~

Tread~

Sniff sniff~

After wasting the food, the three mastiffs walked deeper into the dungeon.

The heads on both sides were tilted high, and the one in the middle was sniffing the ground like a domestic dog.

It seemed that he felt that the smell he smelled outside just now was different from the food.

Seeing the three mastiffs approaching through the gap, Zhao Mu's nervous heart rose to his throat.

Ten steps, five steps, three steps... one step...

In just a few breaths, the three mastiffs arrived at the pile of rocks.

The two sides were very close.

Zhao Mu could almost clearly hear the sniffing sounds made by the three mastiffs.

Not to mention the strong stench. If he hadn't blocked his sense of smell in advance, he would probably be retching again by now.

However, at this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from his mouth, causing Zhao Mu to widen his eyes in shock.

Yan Bingqing.....

I just stuck out my tongue...

After looking at her with a little surprise, he realized that it was not that she was being naughty or seeking excitement, but that he forgot to help her block her sense of smell.

She suddenly stuck out her tongue because the stench was too strong and she was about to retch.

After understanding this, Zhao Mu immediately and carefully helped her block her sense of smell.

Yan Bingqing blinked twice at him with her cold eyes, as if to say thank you.

Zhao Mu also blinked at her twice.

One second, two seconds... dozens of seconds passed.

The three mastiffs sniffed almost the entire pile of rocks, but just as Zhao Mu expected, the mindless walking corpses only acted on instinct.

Zhao Mu and Yan Bingqing were clearly very close to them, but because they had restrained their aura, the three-headed mastiff didn't notice them.

After walking around twice, he continued to walk deeper.

Zhao Mu and Yan Bingqing did not relax, but continued to hold their breath and wait.

Sure enough, half a minute later, three mastiffs came out from the depths with a clattering sound.

Zhao Mu and Yan Bingqing have maintained this posture for nearly two quarters of an hour.

Just when the two thought that the three-headed mastiff was about to leave and they were about to be completely safe.

After the dead dog reached the entrance of the cave, it actually lay down on the spot.

Yan Bingqing blinked twice at Zhao Mu: What should I do?

Zhao Mu also winked at her: Just keep calm and wait!
