I just broke up with my boyfriend and then I transmigrated into the world of "The Lost Tomb&quo

Wu Xie also came to his senses. He had been thinking too optimistically. Ling Xiao was right. They couldn't save Zhuang Zhuang. He thought about taking Zhuang Zhuang to find his mother, and maybe Zhuang Zhuang's wish would be fulfilled so that he could be reincarnated into a better life. If he couldn't be reincarnated, he would find a way to take Zhuang Zhuang away from here.

He was being too presumptuous. Zhuangzhuang can't see his mother, and he can't leave that wall. Even if he could take Zhuangzhuang away, he couldn't raise him...

Seeing Wu Xie's mood gradually decline, Ling Xiao walked to his side, raised his hand and patted his shoulder to comfort him, saying, "Do you want to rest for a while?"

Wu Xie shook his head, then was drawn to something else. He looked around warily and asked, "What's that sound?"

'Squeak squeak~ squeak'

"That sound sounds like a mouse!" Master Liang said slowly.

"There are rats...no...that's normal! It's so damp here." Lao Yang also shone his flashlight, but he seemed to see something in it and said, "What...thing? Why is there a red light here?"

Wu Xie shone his flashlight on it and immediately cursed, "Damn it! That's a rat! Lao Yang! Come back! You're shining it in its eyes!"

The innocent light illuminated the outline of the rat. Lao Yang could see it clearly. The lead rat was about half a person's height, with stiff and dirty gray-black fur, yellowed teeth, and sticky saliva. Its bright red eyes stared unblinkingly at the group. Behind it were several other rats as big as small pet dogs.

Ling Xiao began a rapid brainstorming session. In his current state, fighting these rats would be suicidal. Should he lure them to Zhuangzhuang's location? How fast were they? Could Xiao Ge take off his horse? He wondered if Lao Yang alone could feed this group of rats. Probably not.

Ling Xiao glanced at the two batteries left in his space and wondered if he could throw Lao Yang in front of them, then drop the batteries into their mouths while they were eating Lao Yang, and have Wu Xie shoot when the big rat exploded? That way, if Lao Yang died, Xiao Ge could surely help, right?

Ling Xiao stared intently at Lao Yang's back, his hand slowly resting on his waist. Lao Yang felt a chill run down his back, as if he were being stared at by a venomous snake. He turned around but found nothing.

The rat opposite him didn't move at all, seemingly observing something. Lao Yang retreated little by little until he bumped into something. He turned his head slightly and, without anyone noticing, darted to Ling Xiao's side. When he saw Ling Xiao, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Two sharp sounds rang out: Wu Xie fired his gun...

His goal was clear: capture the leader first. Unfortunately, the big rat only suffered a minor scratch. Wu Xie's actions quickly enraged the rat, which sharpened its claws and charged towards the group.

"Run!" Wu Xie shouted.

As Lao Yang ran, he cursed, "Damn it! Wu Xie, why didn't you say anything when you fired the shot!"

"Who knew it couldn't be killed!" Wu Xie cursed under his breath.

As Ling Xiao ran, he shone his flashlight around, sensing something was amiss. Sure enough, there was a flower on the wall. As he shone the light further, he discovered that every so often, a similar flower would grow on the wall. Ling Xiao didn't recognize the flower, but he guessed it wasn't anything good. However, he was too tired to run any further and needed to deal with the rats first.

Ling Xiao used a dagger to puncture the phone battery, then took out a tinderbox and turned to face the large rat.

"Lingzi!" Wuxie called out as he saw Lingxiao heading towards the group of rats.

"Ling Xiao!" Master Liang exclaimed, seemingly shocked as well.

Ling Xiao ignored them, took out his last Emei dagger, and cleanly stabbed it into the eye of the big rat.

The big rat howled in pain. Just as it opened its mouth, Ling Xiao placed a tinderbox on the battery and threw it into the rat's mouth.

The big rat, in pain and unable to see, rammed into Ling Xiao, sending him flying. His back scraped across the ground, leaving a long trail.

With a 'bang,' the giant rat's belly exploded, sending bits of meat and intestines flying everywhere. A rain of blood and corpse pieces fell down. Ling Xiao lay on the ground watching the blood rain, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up.

Seeing that Ling Xiao had dealt with the big rat, Wu Xie and the others quickly picked up their guns and started shooting at the smaller rats. These smaller rats were not as difficult to deal with as the big rats, and they were killed with a single shot. After the smaller rats died, Wu Xie and the others came to Ling Xiao's side and helped him up.

At this moment, Ling Xiao was covered in blood, the original Mickey Mouse cartoon pattern was no longer visible, the clothes on his back were tattered, and the bone was exposed at his shoulder blades.

Wu Xie started to get anxious again. Ling Xiao grabbed Liang Shiye's hand and pointed to the wall not far away, saying, "Liang Shiye! There's something wrong with the flowers on the wall. I suspect they're affecting Wu Xie's condition!"

Ling Xiao had always felt something was off. Ever since Wu Xie left Zhuang Zhuang's place, he had been acting like he was possessed. It wasn't until he discovered the flower that he realized that it made sense. Ling Xiao and Xiao Ge were both related by blood, while Lao Yang was a material being. Of the four, the only one who could be affected was Wu Xie.

What an unlucky guy!
