Chapter 108 I Want to Be a Good Dad (55)
In Qianshan, the master team quickly arrived at their destination, guided by the scenery.
It was a dilapidated house deep in the mountains, and from the outside, it was not much different from the dilapidated houses in the surrounding villages.
[6058: There is a cavity underground.]
The observer system has a detection function, and 6058 sent a warning almost as soon as they saw the dilapidated house.
Like the old house from the previous world and the amusement park from this world, these people still keep their "base" underground.
Jingli shared this information with everyone.
Bai Duo scoffed: "Cockroaches, rats, flies, and maggots only know how to burrow underground."
It must be said that his summary was very accurate.
This base hasn't existed as long as the Island of Life, and the shadow's power isn't too strong. Having learned from their previous experience, the masters, with Yun Chuan setting a few points and using Bai Duo's talisman, a faint spark appeared, the illusion was broken, and a dark opening was revealed.
The entrance to the cave was not polished; the sharp, unpolished rocks, covered in mud, resembled a gaping maw.
And from that gaping maw, a faint smell of blood could be smelled.
Qiongyu: "Director."
The director swallowed hard, his finger resting on the device, ready to disconnect the live stream at any moment.
Stepping into the cave, a chilling wind swept through.
Hu Sanli ran two fingers across the rock wall: "This cave has been developed no more than three years ago."
He exchanged glances with the other masters.
This is both a good thing and a bad thing.
The good thing is that this place hasn't been around for long, so it won't be as difficult to deal with as last time; the bad thing is that the planning for this place started at least three years ago, and the darkness hidden within is far more than what has been exposed.
The group continued inside.
Without a flashlight, the cave would be pitch black. As you go deeper, it gradually narrows, and eventually, the cameraman has to hold up his equipment to move forward.
Further in, several forks in the road appeared.
Qianyu frowned deeply: "There's a lot of resentment here."
Qiongyu nodded: "There are several different kinds of resentment here."
Since his realm rose, his perception of the evil god has become stronger, and in the cave, in addition to the strongest evil god aura, there are other auras present.
Kongming closed his eyes: "There are people, living people, dead people, their auras are very weak and chaotic."
Yue Xiaoban: "There are whirlpools that feed on them."
The group stopped at the fork in the road.
"Where to go first?"
They each had their own way of judging the situation of the several forks in the road, one of which led to their initial destination—the altar of the evil god.
At the ends of the other lines, the women Kongming had seen earlier are most likely imprisoned.
Should we save lives first, or destroy the source of the problem first?
If we save people first, will the other side notice? And how will they protect these ordinary people in the subsequent battle?
If we destroy the source first, what should we do if the evil god does something to these people in the meantime?
Qiongyu suggested, "Let's split into two groups, with each side leaving some forces behind. I, Master Hu, the two ladies, and the production team will go to rescue people first."
He paused, then looked at Jingli: "Xiaoyu, Master Yunchuan, Master Baiduo, Master Qianyu, go to the Evil God's Altar. What do you say?"
The main fighting force is concentrated on the side of the evil god. Even if something goes wrong on the other side, the two ladies' abilities can provide early warnings, and Qiongyu and Master Hu can also put up a fight.
The production team, by following Qiongyu's group, was better able to contribute "saving" rather than "evil" scenes to the live broadcast, providing appropriate guidance to avoid the spread of negative emotions. The footage of the evil god's side was filmed using personal equipment, and the fight scenes could be shown in the pre-recorded broadcast.
Everything makes perfect sense.
Except for Fu Zichu, who was somewhat unwilling.
"I want to follow you."
He secretly tugged at Jingli's hand, then let go.
He knew very well that he was useless in the past and would only distract Jingli.
Jingli wouldn't dwell too much on such important matters, and Fu Zichu felt a familiar warmth coming to his chest.
"Just like before, I'll be back as soon as possible this time."
In this situation, Jingli seemed to have forgotten about Fu Zichu's "acting skills" and, as usual, conjured an energy lamp and sent it to Fu Zichu's chest.
"I know."
Fu Zichu still looked aggrieved, but she stopped being coy and stood next to the cameraman—far away from Qiongyu.
As before, Bai Duo distributed a life-saving charm to all the staff present to prevent any unforeseen events.
"Let's go."
As soon as Qianyu spoke, the four of them headed toward one of the forks in the road, just as they had agreed.
After the four figures disappeared, Fu Zichu put away his reluctant look. His face, covered by a mask, showed no expression, but the aloofness he exuded was completely different from his previous puppy-like image.
Yue Xiaoban covered her mouth and chuckled, then asked, "Shall we go too?"
Qiongyu nodded, and he took the lead, with Hu Sanli bringing up the rear, as they headed down another fork in the road.
Wow! I didn't see it clearly in the last episode, but it turns out that the little fish gave that kid a small lamp!
- This lampshade, when placed on everyone, inexplicably gives a sense of peace and reassurance.
-Hey kid, don't think we can't tell you've changed your tune just because you're wearing a mask! You change your tune so fast!
-The puppy instantly turned into a lone wolf, hahaha!
-So Master Qianyu's stream is going to stop for now? This is the only perspective left.
- There should be pre-recorded episodes later, since Xiaoyu just said there might be parts that can't be broadcast.
-Turn on the bullet screen mode for safety!
……
The live stream's perspective was fixed on Qiongyu and his group.
"Woo...Woo..."
The road widened a bit, but the faint sound of crying could still be heard from the cave that seemed to have no end.
"Wh…what's that sound?"
The cameraman, a seasoned veteran of the "Watching Yin and Yang" program, still shuddered upon hearing the ethereal sob, amplified by its echo. He instinctively moved closer to Fu Zichu, and his fear subsided somewhat.
“Don’t be afraid,” Yue Xiaoban said, “it’s a human.”
Hu Sanli breathed a sigh of relief at the end: "It's good that you're still alive."
The road widened a bit, and the smell of blood in the air grew stronger.
"what--"
The flashlight beam shone on a stone wall, and suddenly a scream erupted from the opposite side.
"No! Don't kill me! No!"
"Waaah, my child, my child..."
"Haha, it's good to die here, it's the best place to die..."
"Kill me, kill me..."
"Dad, Mom—"
……
The women's voices rose and fell, not very loud, like the soft sighs of ghosts.
Qiongyu made a "stop" gesture and said to the back, "Camera."
"clear."
The cameraman stopped, and Qiongyu gestured for Kongming and Yue Xiaoban to enter.
"Please take care of me for now, gentlemen."
Without any hesitation, Kongming and Yue Xiaoban took a step forward, bypassed the corner that blocked their view, and looked inside.
Upon seeing that one look, they even forgot to breathe.
