Chapter 261

Sheng Feijin might not know about other things, but he knew about this. They had followed Song Lian into the small wooden cabin. Later, they inadvertently overturned something and fell into a trap hidden beneath the floor. At the time, they had assumed that following the passage would lead them out, but as soon as they entered, they saw a swarm of insects in a pool of water behind them. With no other choice, they had to steel themselves and press forward. A few people in the party who walked too slowly were dragged into the pool by the insects. At that point, Song Lian began to act strangely; he became weak and listless, and his vision blurred. Sheng Feijin and Hong Jie discussed whether they should just abandon Song Lian—after all, the man wasn’t even their brother-in-law yet. When the insects attacked again, Sheng Feijin cast Song Lian aside. Strangely, after the insects bit Song Lian, they automatically swerved away from him, as if they were afraid of him.
