Chapter 409: Death Appearance | Trận Vấn Trường Sinh
Trận Vấn Trường Sinh - Updated on May 15, 2025
“How is this cave?” Si Tu Fang asked coldly.
The Land family cultivator’s face was pale, but his mouth was still very hard, “This is my mine, and there’s a mountain cave inside, isn’t that normal?”
But his tone had a trace of trembling.
“Go in and take a look,” Mo Hua ignored him and only said faintly.
Panic flashed in the eyes of the Land family cultivator. He quickly blocked in front of the cave entrance, opened his arms, and blocked the crowd:
“This mine cave is a secret of my Land family mine. Idle outsiders are not allowed…”
Bai Zi Sheng directly kicked him into the cave with one foot.
Mo Hua nodded and said, “He is a Land family cultivator, and he went in first. There’s no other way, we can only follow in.”
Si Tu Fang looked blankly at the two people.
He thought to himself, you two are really disciples of the same sect…
People of the same kind enter the same sect.
Mo Hua strode into the mine cave.
The other several people also followed in.
After Si Tu Fang went in, he silently followed at Mo Hua’s side.
She knew that Mo Hua was born with a weak body and was not a body cultivator. Once he was approached by people or things, it would be very dangerous.
She followed closely in case of any accident so she could protect Mo Hua.
Mo Hua risked his own safety by entering the mine well to help her, and she didn’t want Mo Hua to suffer any harm.
The Land family cultivator, who had fallen face down, also climbed up from the ground and said angrily:
“You… cough…”
He “peh” and spit out the mud in his mouth, and continued, “Bullying people too much! I want to report to the family master…”
“Stop talking nonsense!” Bai Zi Sheng kicked him again, “Lead the way!”
The Land family cultivator looked sullen, “Don’t even think about it! It’s impossible for me to lead the way!”
Because he actually didn’t know the way either.
Mo Hua looked around and said, “Let’s follow me.”
After speaking, he took the lead and walked towards the depths of the well cave.
The other several people looked at each other and also followed Mo Hua inside.
The Land family cultivator’s expression was gloomy and uncertain.
Could this little ghost be a traitor of their Land family?
Why is he so familiar with this mine well?
He wasn’t too clear about what was inside this mine cave, and he didn’t dare to walk towards the depths.
But he also didn’t dare to let the Dian Si of the Dao Ting Si inspect this mine well arbitrarily.
Otherwise, if the family above investigated, he would definitely be in trouble.
The Land family cultivator hesitated for a long time, and finally could only grit his teeth and follow them inside with a hardened scalp…
Inside this well cave, it was as damp and gloomy as outside, with a foul smell.
But there was also a trace of decay, a trace of dead qi, and a bone-chilling yin cold.
Moreover, there were also arrays laid on all sides.
Mo Hua walked and perceived the arrays on the stone wall with his divine sense, slightly surprised in his heart.
Most of the arrays inside this well cave were actually Grade One arrays.
Not only that, these Grade One arrays still formed a complete set, echoing each other, a complex Grade One composite array.
This set of composite arrays was exquisitely designed, the brushwork was pure, and upper-grade spiritual ink was used, completely different from the rough arrays on the periphery.
Obviously, it was from the hand of a Grade One, or even a senior Grade One array master.
It seemed that the Land family was not without array masters, nor could they not invite array masters.
This was very strange…
Mo Hua slowed down his footsteps and began to use his divine sense to deduce the array patterns and distinguish the array types.
After a moment, he understood the general situation in his heart.
This set of composite arrays included Earth Stone arrays, warning arrays, sound isolation arrays, and several other types of mutually auxiliary arrays.
The Earth Stone arrays were for reinforcement, the warning arrays were for prevention, and the sound isolation arrays were for isolating noise…
Mo Hua frowned slightly.
The Land family opened a mine cave here and drew such a complete array. What was it for?
Mo Hua then released his divine sense a bit farther.
As his divine sense reached, he perceived the mixed qi inside the mine well.
There was Earth Stone qi, as well as foul qi, and some qi from arrays.
These qi mixed together, forming a natural barrier, hindering the perception of divine sense.
Having everything was equal to having nothing…
Besides, there were no other discoveries.
Mo Hua could only continue walking forward.
As he walked, several branch cave entrances also appeared in front of him.
At the same time, a pungent smell came.
It was like the smell of rotten meat.
Everyone frowned and covered their noses with their sleeves.
That Land family cultivator was even more unbearable. He immediately covered his stomach, leaned against the wall, and vomited.
Mo Hua glanced at him slightly with contempt, then scanned the surroundings with his divine sense, and found that the cave entrances were branched but not deep, and there was no danger, so he said:
“Let’s split up and search.”
Si Tu Fang and the others nodded. After separating, they walked into the cave entrances one by one to view.
These cave entrances all looked like they had just been excavated.
The arrays above were all newly drawn.
Mo Hua walked into several cave entrances, and suddenly started, his pupils slightly contracted, and his brows were deeply furrowed.
He found several mine cultivators.
They were indeed already dead, with only their corpses left.
But this appearance, again, could not be called a corpse…
Inside the small cave, limbs were everywhere, flesh was fuzzy, and there was blood water everywhere.
The blood water had already solidified, and due to the moisture, it had become semi-sticky and semi-thick, emitting a strong rotten stench that made people nauseous.
These mine cultivators had bloody and cruel death shapes.
As if they had been gnawed and eaten by something…
A chill seeped out of Mo Hua’s heart.
After a while, Si Tu Fang also walked in.
Seeing this scene, his expression was shocked.
Subsequently, there was a wave of nausea. He covered his face with his sleeve and couldn’t help but vomit several times.
Bai Zi Sheng also walked in.
He endured several times, but ultimately could not endure, and vomited with a “wa”.
Bai Zi Xi heard the sound and then walked towards this side.
Mo Hua heard the footsteps and saw Bai Zi Xi walk in. He quickly stretched out his small hand and covered her eyes.
Bai Zi Xi was startled and said with some doubt:
“What happened?”
“Don’t look,” Mo Hua said.
“Why can’t I look?”
“You’ll have nightmares if you look…”
“Um.” Bai Zi Xi understood, then nodded, and quietly let Mo Hua cover her eyes.
Lastly, it was that Land family cultivator.
He had just vomited. As soon as he saw this scene, his face showed terror, and he curled up and fell on the stone wall, almost wanting to vomit out his intestines…
Si Tu Fang frowned and said, “Let’s change places to talk.”
Mo Hua nodded.
So the crowd walked back, and Bai Zi Sheng also grabbed the Land family cultivator’s collar and dragged him away.
They always went to a slightly more spacious place.
Only then did the crowd relax.
Although the smell here was not good, compared to the rotten stench at the cave entrance, it was already considered “fresh and pleasant”…
Bai Zi Sheng took a good while to recover. Seeing Mo Hua, who was unaffected, he couldn’t help but say:
“Didn’t you vomit?”
“I’m still okay…”
Mo Hua nodded and said.
He was not only an array master, but also a demon hunter.
Although he was young, he had spent a long time in the Da Hei Shan and had seen demon beasts kill people and eat people. He could barely endure the bloody scenes.
Bai Zi Sheng twitched the corner of his mouth, unable to say anything.
Si Tu Fang also recovered and sighed:
“Those several mine cultivators are still dead…”
Although he had expected it, his heart was still somewhat heavy.
“How did they die?”
Bai Zi Sheng was somewhat doubtful, “Were they eaten by demon beasts inside the cave?”
Mo Hua wrinkled his brow and shook his head, “It doesn’t look like it. Demon beasts’ teeth are generally longer, and they eat people mainly by tearing and biting, and they eat relatively cleanly.”
“Their current appearance is more like… being gnawed or dug and eaten by something…”
Mo Hua used very precise words.
Bai Zi Sheng looked at Mo Hua with a slightly complex gaze.
Even Si Tu Fang looked at Mo Hua with some surprise.
This child, what he understands… is it a bit off?
Which normal cultivator would research this?
Si Tu Fang shook his head helplessly, “The Dao Ting Si has coroners who can examine corpses. Wait for them to come, and they should be able to know exactly what caused the death of these mine cultivators.”
After speaking, he looked at Mo Hua again and said concernedly:
“You should go back first. It’s filthy here. You children shouldn’t stay long.”
“Um.” Mo Hua nodded.
Finding the missing mine cultivators, his task was also completed.
However, before that, there was still one more thing to do.
He pointed at that Land family cultivator and said:
“Interrogate him a bit to see if he knows anything.”
This Land family cultivator was somewhat slippery.
If asked normally, he might not say.
But now he saw the death shapes of the mine cultivators, his heart was shocked, and he vomited until he was confused. His mental defenses were broken, and it was a good time to interrogate him.
Perhaps something useful could be asked.
Mo Hua wanted to know what caused the death of the mine cultivators.
He also wanted to know exactly what this mine cave was used for.
Besides, there was still the most strange point…
Mo Hua wrinkled his brows, and a cold light gathered in his eyes.
Earlier in the well cave, he actually perceived a trace of Jue Zhen qi from the bodies of the miserably dead mine cultivators…
Only this trace of qi was somewhat evil and unorthodox.
