The stench was unbearable, and the blood was disgusting and sticky. The skinny man tried to rush out of the pool several times, but he was held down by Bai Xi and Lin Bai.
The footsteps of the City Lord and the others had disappeared for a long time. At this time, it was quiet outside the blood pool. Not even the sound of breathing could be heard, let alone the footsteps.
The three of them held their breath for a long time in the blood pool. After confirming that it was safe outside, they stuck their heads out of the blood pool and panted heavily. Their faces were completely red. Half of it was from the staining of the blood pool. The other half were holding their breaths.
Not long ago, they thought of searching the blood pool to see if there were any traps. However, just as the three of them were about to start checking, they heard a sound coming from the other side of the secret chamber. This secret room was spacious and empty. In the end, they could only hide in the blood pool.
“As expected, they left!”
The thin man used his hand to wipe off the sticky liquid on his face. He looked around the secret room. After confirming that he did not see anyone, he let out a long sigh of relief.
“Hu… those people must have become the City Lord’s puppets. They were corrupted by his demonic aura!”
Bai Xi panted as he removed the piece of rotten meat from her forehead and a few strands of black hair from her arm.
Urgh!!!
After doing this, Bai Xi stood in the pool of blood and began to vomit crazily. However, she had already vomited his stomach completely the previous time, so she could only retch painfully.
When the skinny man saw Bai Xi vomiting, a wave of nausea rose in his heart, and he began to retch crazily as well.
Retch!!!
This wasn’t the end. When Little Black saw the two of them retching, not only did it want to imitate them, but it also retched out of instinct…
Lin Bai shook his head, his eyes filled with helplessness. He could only wait for the two of them and the one beast to finish vomiting.
“Hu… hu…” The thin man took a deep breath, and that wave of nausea more or less dissipated. “This blood pool is really f * cking heavy. Even if the City Lord is a demon, he’s too perverted.”
Bai Xi let out a long breath and said, “This is either that demon’s hobby, or he needs this blood pool to do something. For example, to use it as a camouflage and place the mechanism inside…”
When Bai Xi said this, her eyes looked at the blood pool that had gone past her chest. Her mind wanted to search this blood pool but her body was unable to move.
It was too disgusting!
Lin Bai stood up from the pool of blood with a smile. When he saw the skinny man and Bai Xi wanting to search, but not wanting to because of the disgust, he found it rather funny.
“Oh?! You’re not going to search?!”
When the skinny man saw Lin Bai walk out of the pool of blood, he hurriedly followed him out. He really did not want to stay in this pool of blood for even a minute.
Bai Xi saw the two of them leave and immediately jumped out of the pool of blood. After they came out of the pool, he threw his sleeves and wiped his face and neck. The blood splashed all over the ground, and there was even some meat foam.
“Little Green, come and help us rinse.”
Lin Bai called out Little Green, and then he opened his arms straight.
Pu!
Little Green used a burst of powerful water to wash Lin Bai’s entire body. The clothes that were originally dyed red by the pool of blood gradually lost their red color, and the stench also gradually faded away. The rotten meat that was mixed in his hair was also washed away.
“Hu…”
Lin Bai let out a long sigh of relief. He felt that he had come back to life. If it was possible, he would not have wanted to enter this blood pool a second time.
“That, Little Green, no, Uncle Green. There’s me too. Give me a wash too!”
The thin man put on a shy face and moved closer to Little Green. Initially, Little Green was a little reluctant, but after hearing the word “Uncle,” there was a look of vigor in her eyes, so she helped the thin man wash clean as well.
“And me.”
Bai Xi also moved closer. If she hadn’t pinched her nose and tried not to let herself smell that smell, she would have vomited more times. Her face had already turned pale after she vomited twice, and her lips were dry. She didn’t dare to think about it if it continued.
After a long time, the three of them were completely drenched and stuck tightly to their bodies, but they all felt very refreshed and comfortable.
“Then how are we going to find them now? Don’t tell me we still have to go in…” The thin man said as he looked at the blood pool with some hesitation. “If it’s possible, I really don’t want to go in a second time.”
I don’t want to go in a second time either!
Lin Bai agreed in his heart. He shook his head and said, “There’s no need for that. There’s a better way.”
“There’s still a way?” Bai Xi frowned.
While he was deep in thought, Little Red flapped its wings and flew around rapidly. Little Red meant to say, “I’ll do it, I’ll do it, let me do it, I have a way!”!
“I understand!” Bai Xi revealed an expression of sudden realization. Then, she let out a long sigh of relief. There was no need to enter that disgusting blood pool again. It was better than anything else.
“Little Red, it’s up to you now!”
Lin Bai looked at Little Red dotingly. In fact, if the City Lord had not returned in a hurry, he would not have been able to enter the blood pool. However, the situation was urgent at that time, and there was only one hiding place nearby. In the end, he could only choose to hide in the blood pool.
At that time, Lin Bai had thought that if he was discovered by the City Lord, he would attack first and injure the City Lord before the City Lord attacked. Then, he could coordinate with fatty to catch them off guard.
Even if he could not kill the City Lord, the four of them could still retreat safely.
However, not being discovered by the City Lord was better than anything else. Otherwise, they would not be able to find out the secret of this blood pool.
While Lin Bai’s thoughts were flying, Little Red had already spat out flames towards the blood pool.
A blazing fireball swept towards the blood pool. Even though it was still very far away from the fireball, Lin Bai could feel that his clothes, which were originally drenched, had dried up in a very short period of time. The blood pool below the fireball had even started to emit white smoke.
Sizzle sizzle sizzle…
The fireball smashed into the pool of blood, causing the blood to burn. The sound of rotting flesh burning could be heard, and a burning stench filled the air.
The pool of blood slowly decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye. Eighty percent, sixty percent, forty percent, ten percent… In the end, the entire pool was empty, with only burnt ashes scattered at the bottom of the pool.
“Cough cough…”
The air was filled with the burning smell, causing the thin man to cough uncontrollably. However, compared to the feeling in the blood pool, this burning smell was child’s play.
“Let’s hurry in! Who knows when the City Lord will want to turn around and come back. By then, even the blood pool will be gone, and we won’t have any place to hide.”
As the thin man spoke, he took the lead and jumped into the pool, landing steadily at the bottom of the pool.
“Yes, we have to hurry!” Bai Xi also jumped into the pool and began to search.
The bottom of the pool was a square-shaped space. It was carved out of some kind of stone. The surface was smooth and flat. There were some patterns on the surface, but after being burned by Little Red’s fire, the patterns were somewhat black and difficult to see clearly.
