Chapter 451: Chapter 377-crossing 2

“It looks like someone is about to arrive.”
He was at the back, so he must have heard the noise.
Number one’s expression turned cold, and he subconsciously looked in the direction where the few people had come from. However, he only saw pairs of chilling Snake Eyes in the miasma fog, and could not see the edge of the pit.
He shrunk his neck and his eyes revealed a look of relief.
These snakes were cold-blooded and fierce. At that time, they had almost become a barrier to stop them. Now, it was possible that they could also hinder the undead race.
“Fortunately, we ran fast.”
When he had crossed the snake cave, he had clearly seen that there were some skeletons in the snake cave that were not only of humans, but also of strange shapes. Some were nearly two to three meters long, while others were less than a meter long. They should all belong to the undead race.
“Even if these pursuers want to kill us, they’ll have to cross the snake cave first.”
Song qingxiao also looked in the direction of the snake cave and pondered for a moment.
“It’s hard to say if they’re pursuers.”
Her words caught the attention of number one and number five. They were surprised and were about to ask again when song qingxiao waved her hand.
“Let’s cross the river first,”
The two of them suppressed their doubts and nodded.
With song qingxiao’s words, the fugitives began to move in the direction of the underground river.
However, just as song qingxiao had guessed, the closer they got to the underground river, the colder the temperature became. The sand on the ground was frozen, and then it was stepped on, leaving countless messy footprints.
Just like when they first entered the bloody tunnel, they were stuck in front of the group of escapees. Number one couldn’t help but pull up his clothes to cover his exposed skin, but even so, he was still shivering from the cold.
On the contrary, the escapees seemed to not feel the chill and had already stepped into the water.
It looked like he was going to force his way through the water!
But at this time, everyone had no way out, and could only brace themselves to go-
The few of them stepped into the water. The water of the underground river reached their feet and slowly flowed into their shoes. Number one first felt stiff, then the bone-piercing chill spread through his feet to his limbs and bones.
His feet were soaked in the water, and in just a moment, they were so cold that he felt a sharp pain.
“Hiss.” He bared his teeth and took a deep breath. He tilted his head and saw number five frowning. It was obvious that he was also enduring the heat. However, song Qing looked normal as if she did not notice the bone-chilling cold.
The few of them waded through the water. The current gradually went past their ankles, calves, and then to their thighs.
In the rippling water, a group of people silently paddled forward.
The cold water hit everyone’s bodies. From the direction of the water, it could be roughly judged that they were going against the current and not just crossing the river.
After walking for a few dozen meters, number one felt his lower body go numb and painful. He felt as if he was going to lose all feeling in his legs.
The trial-takers ‘strong bodies were already like this, not to mention the ordinary escapees. The team’s speed slowed down, and everyone’s footsteps seemed unusually heavy.
“How long is this road?”
Number one couldn’t help but ask. In fact, no one could answer how long this road was.
But if he didn’t say something to break the silence, he would find it hard to grit his teeth and persist.
In the sound of footsteps, some escapees fell to the ground with a ‘plop’, as if their bodies were not listening to them due to the cold. Soon, they were stepped on by the people behind them.
“I don’t know,”
Number five replied in a muffled voice, trying to hold back the sound of his teeth chattering.
Number one took another two steps forward, but his feet seemed to be caught by something. He quickly raised his leg in shock.
However, his body was so cold that he couldn’t control it. This movement almost made him lose his balance and he almost fell into the water.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, song qingxiao reached out and grabbed his clothes, stabilizing him.
He didn’t have time to thank him. He raised his leg and saw that there was a bone of an unknown creature on his foot.
It was just a false alarm. Number one shook off the bone and watched it fall back into the water. He felt that it was embarrassing for him to make such a big fuss earlier, so he tried to divert his attention and said,”
number three, what did you mean by ‘it’s hard to say whether they are pursuers’?”
As soon as he said this, he did attract number Five’s attention. This was not an important secret. Song Qing then revealed his guess,”
“I suspect that another group of escapees might have arrived..”
