Chapter 23: The Bug of Death 2

  Master Tianyun was struggling in agony, sending out a distress signal towards me, constantly swirling in my mind, and I could only watch with my eyes wide open, without taking any action. The feeling of powerlessness tightly wrapped around my heart, like a sharp knife, cutting one by one, painful to the point of being unable to breathe.

  Suddenly found myself being so cold-blooded to this extent.

  I can hardly imagine the struggle of Tianyun Master before his death, he found that his teammates who had been walking together all the way did not reach out to save him when he was in danger, but instead watched him die with their eyes open, how desperate he must have been at that time.

  Thinking of this, I feel like slapping myself a few times.

  As I gaze at the approaching death, my instinct to survive grows stronger. I know I cannot die like this. The mountains are heavy and the waters are deep, with no way out in sight, but then suddenly a village appears beyond the flowers and willows. There must be a way to resolve this.

  I turned my head and saw the old professor muttering to himself, while Hui'er was sobbing quietly, and Yu Gang was comforting her. It seemed like everyone had broken down at this moment.

  For the three of them, for myself, I hastily unfastened my seatbelt and climbed to the driver's seat, bending over to check the car's fault, trying to fix it.

  Dead fire?

  I thought of the problem of car stalling, which is the most frustrating and helpless thing for drivers. My family has a car that occasionally stalls on the way, and I still have some understanding of this issue.

  There are several reasons for the death of fire. Combining the situation just now, it suddenly braked and estimated that Master Tianyun did not step on the clutch after emergency braking, resulting in a dead fire.

  Because I've done this kind of thing a few times, I opened the cover on the passenger seat and found that there wasn't the tool I wanted inside. I only took the screwdriver to see if it was an engine problem without taking any risks.

  Finally, I was so angry that I stepped on the clutch pedal hard, and it actually made a dull sound.

  At the sound of this voice, everyone's face lit up with a hopeful expression, they looked at me and cheered.

  At this moment, I don't know how to describe my mood. I suddenly accelerated the oil 'gate', shifted gears, and let go of the handbrake. The car started moving, and without even looking back, I reversed for over 50 meters before turning around. After driving more than 200 meters away to make sure it was safe, I finally stopped the car.

  After I got off the bus, I shouted towards Tang Guangze's car for a long time, but didn't hear any response. The car remained stationary and there was no movement at all, with no idea what had happened.

  Yu Gang also came down and shouted towards that direction, then couldn't help but curse: "Damn it, what the hell are they doing stopping there..."

  No one answered after calling for a long time, Yu Gang boldly made a guess:

  "Is the car broken too?"

  The old professor shook his head and stuttered, "If the car is broken, there are people inside too. I suspect they're dead."

  "I really didn't think I'd run into the Death Worm again, it's been decades since I've seen this thing." His face clearly reflected a color of fear, as if he had recalled something terrifying.

  "The insects of death are usually in a state of dormancy, and only come out to forage when the energy in their bodies has been depleted to a certain extent. Otherwise, unless they have been startled, they will not emerge, and I wonder if we're just unlucky to have encountered them."

  "No... it's a curse, the death worm. There has been a legend circulating in our village all along, and people in our village don't even dare to mention its name, thinking that disturbing its life will bring about a curse." A faint voice came from afar, she just slightly furrowed her brow, a hint of worry flashing across her beautiful face.

  I heard something about a curse and my back stiffened, as if someone had forcibly poured poison into my mouth.

  They didn't notice the color of my face, but the old professor looked very frightened. However, he couldn't hide his curiosity as a professor and asked me: "Little girl, where are you from? When I was in Korla, I often heard rumors about the Death Worm, which were quite mysterious. I thought it was just a rumor, but now I've really seen it. The feeling is hard to describe."

  "There have always been legends about the death worm in our village, my grandparents never let me mention those words, they said it would bring death, at that time I didn't understand what it meant, now thinking back, it was all true, we will really die under the curse..."

  She hadn't finished speaking when Yu Gang suddenly rushed up to her and said: "Don't say any more..."

  I sat weakly on the sand, no longer caring about the temperature of the sand, because I had already lost all feeling. All I knew was that everything was so strange and it all had something to do with me.

  Curse, everything is inseparable from curse.

  I know that Tang Guangze has something hidden from me, but I don't know what it is. I know that the things Huang Daxian told me have pushed me into an even more terrifying place.

  My grandfather was a scout, and my father abandoned us mother and son for that box, and now I'm also cursed to take this path.

  At first, I thought it was a coincidence, but now, it's not a coincidence, everything is destined.

  I don't know what they said, and I didn't pay attention either. I feel like there's a huge conspiracy lurking around me, a conspiracy centered on that box.

  I sat on the sand, raised my eyes and gazed far into the endless desert. Suddenly a chill ran through my heart, as if I had fallen into an ice cave.

  The scene in front of me kept changing, and Yu Gang held my hand, shaking it back and forth in front of me, urgently asking: "No reaction, Professor, he really has no reaction, as if his soul had been sucked away..."

  I guess it was just after seeing the bewildered look on my face, his eyes didn't even turn around, to put it bluntly, he had a stupid expression.

  Then I felt a hand lift up my eyelids. He sighed and said, "He's also going to die soon."

  At this time, I wanted to stand up and loudly tell them that I wouldn't die, but I found my body couldn't move at all, and also, I couldn't shout out a single word.

  I was taken aback for a moment, what's going on?

  My old self just suddenly sat on the sand for a moment, thinking about some unanswered questions, how can't get up, even opening mouth to speak is a problem, nowadays me, just like a vegetative person, unable to move or speak.

  I blinked hard with my eyes, revealing a look of fear, panic and despair.

  "He's still conscious, I saw his eyes move!" Yu Gang exclaimed in surprise.

  Just then, I heard a car horn and felt that a vehicle had stopped about two meters away from us. I thought it should be Tang Guangze's off-road vehicle. Then, a hurried footsteps came over.

  "Doctor......" Yu Gang's voice became very soft.

  "Put him down first and keep his airway clear." Tang Guangze gave the order.

  Right after that, my body was pulled and laid down on the sand, in a sleeping posture. At this time, I felt the scorching temperature of the sand burning my skin hot, as if I had fallen into a furnace.

  They have no idea that at this moment I am suffering from an unimaginable heat, it's already eleven o'clock, the sand is so hot that it burns people, and I can't help but want to wake them all up, why not put me in the car?

  A magnified face suddenly appeared in front of me, startling me. Tang Guangze's eyebrows were tightly furrowed, I knew that when he made this expression, it meant he was about to make a bad decision.

  Kill me? Or let me fend for myself in this desolate desert with no one around?

  Neither of them is what I want.

  As expected, I saw Tang Guangze holding a gun in his hand. He pulled the trigger and looked at me with an icy expression. At that moment, I knew he was going to fire.

  "Ah..."

  I shouted towards the sky in terror, and my hands slowly regained their senses, squeezing out a sentence with difficulty: "If you have the guts, shoot..."

  "I knew it, Chen Yue Song is such a coward, how could he possibly die...". Yu Gang's broken voice 'door' was transmitted over with excitement, damn, I've never thought that Yu Gang's voice sounded so good.

  When I saw Tang Guangze smile and put away his gun, I let out a big sigh of relief, still not understanding what was going on.

  Yu Gang then told me about the origin of the matter.

  Just then, I suddenly realized that something was wrong with me. Seeing my eyes at that time was like seeing Huang Daxian's situation, it was scary. He thought I would die like Huang Daxian, but no one knew, and finally woke up.

  "Damn it, hurry up and pull me up! My flesh is burning with a fiery pain!" I moved my body and shouted at Yu Gang. What he said wasn't unbelievable, but just needed some time to digest, after all, not everything has an answer.

  Xiao Lai Bu, A Qing, their bodies suddenly changed, strange behavior, bizarre death, all of these have no answers.

  It turned out to be what Xiao Qiu said in her mouth.

  "You will all die..."

  All team members came and went, leaving only seven people. Adding the stranger who joined halfway, there were only eight people in total.

  "Aren't you going to get up? Get up by yourself..."

  "For crying out loud, I'll get up myself, no need to call you." My face was deathly pale, a cold sweat broke out on my forehead, and the pain in my lower back mixed with the sweat made me feel extremely uncomfortable.

  Xiang'er squatted down, ready to help me up. Yu Gang saw this and hastily pulled Xiang'er up, saying shamelessly: "Let me do this rough work, you're delicate and tender, what if you get burned..."

  I swear, once I can move, I'll definitely kick this guy to death with one shoe.

  Just after Professor Lao helped me up, I was still a bit unsteady on my feet. Suddenly, I remembered that we had been calling Tang Guangze for a long time and he hadn't answered. So, out of curiosity, I asked: "Hey, what happened to your car just now?"
