Chapter 158 - Separation

Lu Xiaocha narrowed her eyes dangerously.

“I don’t raise useless things. If you’re really useless, I’ll throw you into the swamp.”

The threatened worm immediately straightened up again.

‘I can do it. I’m fine. I’m super useful.’

As if it was really afraid of being thrown away, the little worm was trying its best to express its thoughts.

Fu Ye looked at it interestingly. “Kid, where did you get this thing? It’s quite fat.”

Shouldn’t normal people say that it was quite smart?

Oh, but it’s Fu Ye. He wasn’t normal.

“What can it do?”

Lu Xiaocha said, “It can eat any poison.”

Fu Ye sized up the tiny bug. “This thing?”

The little bug that felt that it was despised puffed up its chest.

Why? Didn’t it look powerful with its pure and beautiful body?!

“Here. Keep it in your hand. The poison gas you’re breathing into your body will be sucked away by it.”

Lu Xiaocha handed the little white worm over.

Fu Ye did not take it. Instead, he asked her, “What about you?”

He was not worried about Yin Shian. He knew that Zombies would not be poisoned, but what about Lu Xiaocha?

Lu Xiaocha exclaimed, “Didn’t I tell you? I’m resistant to poison.”

Fu Ye was speechless.

‘When did you tell me that!’

Did she know what she was talking about?!

How could he be a normal person?

Fu Ye’s mind raced. In the end, he could only look at the two of them aggrievedly.

“So, I’m the only ordinary person here now?”

He knew that Lu Xiaocha was abnormal. After all, no ordinary thirteen-year-old girl could easily throw a man who was so much taller than her a few meters away.

Lu Xiaocha said, “Sort of.”

Fu Ye was speechless.

In the end, he brought the little worm with him to the poisonous fog forest.

This poisonous fog was really no joke. Not long after he entered, he felt a tightness in his chest.

However, soon, there was a slight pain in his finger. After a moment, Fu Ye felt that the suffocating feeling in his chest disappeared.

He looked down and saw that the snow-white bug was lying on his index finger and sucking in the poison.

He looked at the two people beside him. Eh? Where did they go!!!

Lu Xiaocha also realized that she was separated from her two teammates, and… she was lost.

Lu Xiaocha, who had already walked in circles three times, was speechless.

Forget it, she’ll lie down and rest first.

She found a tree and jumped up. She yawned and closed her eyes.

He was not worried about the other two.

Even the weakest Fu Ye would have the help of Godslayer. Coupled with her worm, it was not a problem for him to protect himself in this place.

The poisonous fog forest was frighteningly quiet. Ordinary people would not be able to return after walking in.

Because this poisonous fog forest was not only dangerous, but there were also various poisonous insects and snakes that were nurtured in this forest.

A beautiful black and red snake climbed up the tree trunk. Its tongue caught the temperature in the air and it prepared to attack. It rushed out like an arrow.

“Woosh…”

Unfortunately, before its fangs could touch the person, its body was pierced by a branch and nailed to the tree trunk.

“Hiss…”

The venomous snake twisted its body in pain. In the blink of an eye, it realized that there were at least thirty others of its kind in distress who shared its fate.

On this side of the tree trunk were poisonous insects that had been made into specimens.

Spiders, centipedes, scorpions, frogs, moths, and bats all died tragic deaths.

Before the poisonous snake died, at least it felt a little comforted.

So it wasn’t the only one!

Lu Xiaocha stretched and got up from the tree. She looked at the poisonous insects on the tree wall and went up to look around. Then, she took out a bottle and put them all in.

She could not waste them. This was all that lazy worm’s food.

After collecting them, she sat cross-legged on the tree and supported her chin as she looked at the forest, thinking about how to walk out.

“Forget it, I’ll rely on my senses.”

She believed in her luck.

After making up her mind, Lu Xiaocha closed her eyes and walked forward. If she encountered trees, she would circle around them and step on poisonous insects, snakes, and ants.

They were looking for it. It had nothing to do with her.

Just like that, she really walked out of the place where she was trapped.

She just didn’t know how the other two were doing.

After roasting a pheasant, Lu Xiaocha missed Fu Ye and the barbecue he made.

With him around, she didn’t have to do anything. How good was that?

“One pheasant isn’t enough.”

She decided to find some more.

On a tree not far from where Lu Xiaocha was, a black crow and mystic cat stared at the girl.

The mystic cat’s ridiculously long tail swung like a soft wave.

“Meow~”

It let out a soft cry. In the next second, like smoke, its figure disappeared from the tree.

“Caw…”

The crow also spread its wings and disappeared.

…

“Xiaocha, you’re injured. We can’t be wiped out because of you alone. This is all for everyone. If it really comes to that, I hope you can leave on your own.”

Lu Xiaocha opened her eyes and vaguely heard familiar words. As far as she could see, the woman in the white dress opposite her had a righteous expression that said, “I don’t want this either, but I have to do this for everyone’s sake.”

Behind her, a group of people also looked at her. There was sympathy, pity, and indignation, but no one stood up for her.

“Lu Xiaocha, who knows if your injury is infected? What if you become a ghoul? Don’t be so selfish.”

“That’s right. Even if you’re not infected, you’re bleeding from such a big wound. The ghouls outside were attracted to you. We don’t dare to keep you here.”

“You can’t be so selfish. Lu Xiaocha, aren’t you very powerful? If you use you as bait to lure those ghouls away, you might be able to escape.”

Lu Xiaocha glanced at the familiar faces, her heart calm.

After experiencing such a thing once, she only felt that she was stupid back then.

She really thought that Bai Niannian wouldn’t forcefully push her out for old times’ sake. What did she do back then?

She swallowed her anger and ignored this group of people. She shamelessly followed the team. In the end, when they were surrounded by the ghouls, she was the first to be pushed out.

Then, while the ghouls were distracted by her, everyone drove away without looking back.

And it was her best friend, Bai Niannian, who pushed her.

At that time, she couldn’t understand why Bai Niannian, who had always been gentle and kind, would do such a thing. Now that she thought about it, it had been a few years since the post-apocalyptic world. There was no such thing as pure gentleness and kindness.

That was just that woman’s weapon.

The team leader waited for everyone to finish speaking before stepping forward.

“Alright, everyone, don’t blame Xiaocha. She didn’t do it on purpose. It’s not the time to be desperate yet. We’ll definitely survive!”

Lu Xiaocha looked at the wound on her shoulder and smiled. It had been a long time since she was injured.

She raised her head and looked at the familiar face in front of her, but it was already blurry in her memory.
