Lu Tianyi was not good at cooking, but he believed that his food was not terrible. Besides, the boy had no teeth. What could he possibly eat? He made some plain porridge for the lunch that was slightly salty. He spent a long time boiling it slowly, yet, the boy still complained about it!
“Daddy’s food has a milky aroma. He also makes delicious soup for me. How can you feed me only plain porridge? I am growing, okay?” Teng gave him a glare.
So, under Teng’s complaints, Lu Tianyi sent him back to Wu Chengyue’s place. After that, he figured that the whole thing was no longer related to him. So, he planned to take a few days off and then go back to All Beings Base.
But in the end, Kong Qingming made him work.
“Well, you gave all your work to me. What are YOU gonna do then?” Looking at the large stack of files on the desk, Lu Tianyi asked Kong Qingming with confusion.
“I’m going after Qingying,” Kong Qingming made himself sound very reasonable.
Long Qingying and Lin Wenwen headed back to All Beings Base after lunch. Kong Qingming wanted very much to ask her to stay, but he was aware that he should not go too far. After all, he trapped her in his bed the whole night last night. So, without any other choice, he let the two girls leave.
He decided to follow her to All Being Base, but he had so much work to do. Therefore, he made Lu Tianyi do his work, leaving the latter speechless.
…
Lin Qiao spent quite a while waking in the tunnel, only to find another circular room. It was similar to the last one she found, about ten meters wide and tall.
The room was surrounded by over ten tunnel entrances; the large ones were about five-meters tall while the small ones around one or two meters. She walked past those entrances one after another and sensed the scents coming from them. Some scents were fresh, and others were faint.
One of those entrances gave out very special scents. A strong blood scent and stench was sensed from that entrance. Lin Qiao knew what the source of those smells was; those were probably rotten dead bodies. It was not normal, though, as the scents were too strong.
Lin Qiao thought for a second and glanced at the other entrances. She had no idea how long it would take to walk to the end of any of those tunnels. She had spent about three hours walking, and had gone pretty deep underground. But still, she hadn’t seen even one underground creature.
Those creatures were hiding deep.
So, she walked into the stinky tunnel. The further in, the smellier it was. Lin Qiao couldn’t help but cover her nose, as the scents were too heavy. Her sense of smell was especially great. Therefore, some strong smells could affect her badly.
The tunnel wasn’t large, but it wasn’t small either. Compared to other tunnels, it was a medium-sized one, about two meters tall and one and a half meters wide. Lin Qiao did not need to bend her body in it.
Those underground creatures had dug so many tunnels underground. Lin Qiao wondered if the entire underground cave would collapse in the event of an earthquake.
After half an hour of walking, the smell grew stronger, causing Lin Qiao to cover her nose tight. Thankfully, she did not need to breathe. It was pitch dark in the tunnel, and what Lin Qiao saw was a black and white scene. Anyhow, she couldn’t see more than ten meters in front of her.
At the end of the tunnel was another larger hole, over ten meters wide. The rotten corpses’ stench rose from the hole wave by wave.
Lin Qiao narrowed her eyes and looked down, with some kind of dark energy existing within. The hole was so deep that she could not see the bottom, but she was sure that nothing good would be there.
At that moment, she heard some noises coming from a distance away behind her. Then, she sensed the earthy and bloody scent coming closer and closer.
She leaned against the cave wall and looked into the tunnel. A short while later, she saw two two-meters-tall underground creatures drag something over.
As the two creatures came close enough, she saw the thing in their hands clearly—those were four dead mutated dogs. The dogs were almost eaten up, and only the bones remained. The bones were covered in blood and some flesh remnants that hadn’t fallen apart yet. However, the heads were undamaged; it seemed that those creatures didn’t eat heads.
Clearly, the two dead dogs were their food, and they were there to dump the food waste.
The two underground creatures had a dead dog in each hand, each of different sizes. The largest one was as big as Tibetan mastiff and the smallest one was only as big as a Husky.
Lin Qiao watched the two underground creatures drag the four dead dogs to the edge of the hole and then swing their arms to throw the dogs into the hole. After that, they licked their claws as they turned and headed back.
At that very moment, Lin Qiao suddenly made a move. She grabbed an underground creature with each hand and then threw both of them into the woods in her space.
“Roar!” Being thrown into a totally strange place, the two underground gorillas immediately panicked and burst in growls. Lin Qiao didn’t pay attention to them, but turned and exited her space.
Another two underground creatures were coming, also dragging some dead mutated animals. This time, those dead animals weren’t mutated dogs, but mutated cats and rats.
“Err?” Before approaching the hole, the two creatures gave out some weird sounds. Then, they walked to the hole and looked around, seemingly looking for something. Lin Qiao guessed they were looking for the two creatures that had been thrown into her space.
She had probably misstepped. She could not let the two discover anything wrong. Otherwise, they might warn the others, in which case she would be in trouble.
With that thought, Lin Qiao immediately threw the two underground gorillas, who hadn’t thrown their food waste into the hole, into her space. Then, she came out and kicked the dead animals into the hole before waiting for the other underground gorillas.
The four weren’t the only ones who came to dump garbage. Lin Qiao had sensed some more behind them. It was a good thing though, as she planned to catch every single one of those underground creatures who showed up in her sight.
At that time, a three-meters-tall underground creature was standing near the tunnel entrance that Lin Qiao just went in, watching its subordinates drag food waste into the tunnel in groups of two. But soon, it turned toward the tunnel questioningly.
The few who had entered the tunnel should have returned already. Why hadn’t they come out yet? Were they loafing on the job?
Even after all of its subordinates went into the tunnel with the remains of mutated animals, none of them came back out.
