The closer he got upstream, Lin Yu found that there were more and more small black insects in the riverbed.

They are like black sesame seeds suspended in water, and they will immediately disperse as soon as they get closer.

That kind of scene, just looking at it, will make people sick to their stomachs and numb their scalps.

Li Qingyuan, who hadn't noticed the abnormality at first, finally realized that there was something wrong with the river here.

"That'...... Those bugs, what the hell are they, they're disgusting! How could there be such a thing in the water? ”

"I don't know the exact name, it should be a scavenging insect, I see that the water here is a little muddy, sticky, the mud in the riverbed is dark brown, and when you get closer, you can smell a fishy smell, which means that the river water here has been completely polluted. And as you said before, there isn't even a single fish in this river, which is already very abnormal! ”

Lin Yu said as he looked at the source of the river.

The river near the racecourse flows down from the mountains.

In the distance, the woods are thick and overgrown with weeds, and if you don't get closer, you can't see anything in it.

"Let's go there and see, maybe we'll find out!"

He pointed to the woodland in the mountains, Li Qingyuan followed and took a look, looking at the somewhat gloomy mountains and forests, he couldn't help but have a cold war.

"Hey! I don't think it's too early now, so let's wait for tomorrow! And I've heard people say that deep in the mountains, there will be tigers and wild wolves at night, and if the two of us are concerned, will it be too dangerous? ”

"Just go to the source of the river to take a look, and it won't go deep into the mountains, it won't take long."

Lin Yu didn't think too much about it, he was in a hurry to go to the water source to find out, so he didn't care too much.

"I think it's better to forget it! Wait for tomorrow, okay? ”

"If you don't want to go, forget it, I'm alone!"

Seeing that Li Qingyuan was a little unhappy, he didn't wait long, but left her directly and walked towards the mountains alone.

Seeing that he actually left himself alone, Li Qingyuan couldn't help but feel angry in his heart. But after thinking about it, I finally relented to follow.

"Hey! Wait for me, you idiot! ”

By the time she panted and caught up with Lin Yu, the two of them had already walked into the forest.

At this time, the time is almost evening, because of the shade of the surrounding trees, it seems that the mountains here are a little gloomy.

Moreover, in the dense forest, there will be one or two strange noises from time to time.

After Li Qingyuan heard the sound, he couldn't help but be a little scared, and the whole person didn't feel a lot closer to Lin Yu.

"The river is flowing more slowly, and there are more branches, but the main stream is still the same one, and the water source should be in front of it!"

After observing the trend of the river, Lin Yu immediately judged the specific location of the water source.

Immediately, the two crossed a small hill.

When there was an extra deep pool in front of the two of them, the scene in front of them really shocked the two of them.

I saw that the source of the river was in a waterhole in the mountains.

The streams on the mountain converge here, because of the topography and depressions, which form waterholes here.

The waterhole, which should have been clear and bottom-out, is now extremely turbid, and the water inside is pitch black and cannot be seen to the bottom.

In addition, around this waterhole, mosquitoes and flies are flying, and there is chaos.

Not to mention the turbidity of the pool, there is also an incomparably foul smell in it.

"Gross! I can't stay here! ”

When Li Qingyuan saw this scene, goosebumps instantly rose all over his body.

As for Lin Yu, he frowned, endured the discomfort, and looked twice in the direction of the waterhole.

In addition to the muddy and smelly water, there seems to be something in this pool.

He noticed that some of the streams that gathered here were dark and muddy.

In other words, this is just a breeding ground for stench and insect swarms, and the real source is not here.

Perhaps, the culprit of polluting the entire water source is still deeper.

"Let's get out of here!"

"Good, great! Let's hurry up, hurry down the mountain, I can't stand it! Vomit! ”

Li Qingyuan had a disgusted expression at this time, and after hearing his words, he was suddenly a lot happier.

However, Lin Yu's next sentence completely shattered the reality she thought.

"I didn't say go down, I kept going! The source is not here, it should be in the mountains! Let's go! ”

"Huh? Still leaving? Don't! It's getting dark! ”

Looking at the increasingly gloomy sky, Li Qingyuan couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"If you're scared, go down the mountain yourself."

"You...... Lin Yu, are you sick in the brain? It's so late, and you have to go up the mountain, aren't you afraid of dying here? ”

Seeing that he was a little stubborn, Li Qingyuan couldn't help but feel depressed and angry.

"Tsk! The eldest lady has a temper attack, right? I said, "This is my business, if you don't want to follow, just go!" ”

Lin Yu didn't want to be like her, so he was alone, ignoring the flies and insects on the surrounding grass and trees, and walked towards the mountain.

Seeing his back getting farther and farther away, Li Qingyuan suddenly felt that his nose was sore, and he was extremely aggrieved in his heart.

"Donkey, stinky, bastard!"

She scolded him several times at his back, but seeing that the situation around her was getting worse and worse, she still couldn't help it, wiped her eyes, and quickly followed.

In the end, Li Qingyuan still didn't have the courage to go down the mountain alone, but chose to continue to follow Lin Yu and walk towards the source of the water.

As the eldest lady of the Li family, it was the first time she had been so ignored and treated so rudely.

This man, with his own indifference, pinched her fiercely.

Although she doesn't like this look, the other party's every move has a fatal temptation to her.

Lin Yu herself, like a mystery, was fascinating her deeply.

She never guessed what his next step would be.

"Wait for me!"

In the mountains and forests, Li Qingyuan followed him step by step, always following him.

And Lin Yu deliberately slowed down after noticing her following.

Anyway, the other party is also a person who has little self-defense. It doesn't matter about gender, it's just that he doesn't do the kind of thing that leaves others alone.

That's just his kindness!

"The smell is getting stronger and stronger, the source is nearby, and the stream here is obviously a little wrong!"

While Lin Yu was hurrying, he was also paying attention to the condition of the surrounding streams.

He found that in this woodland, the soil on the ground was all black, and there was a strong stench in the surrounding air, which lingered.

Lin Yu was sure that in this water source, maybe something would corrupt there.

The body size should not be small, and it is precisely because of corruption that the water body is polluted.

And those wildebeests, after drinking inferior water, caused the plague.

After all, most plagues happen for a reason.

Death brings corruption, corruption leads to the deterioration of everything, and those things that are bad breed malice, and malice spreads to everything with the flow of water.

And ignorance contributes to the spread of malice.

In Lin Yu's memory, there are countless examples where ignorance led to tragedy.

And the healer is for the sake of the people, to clean up the chaos and tragedy caused by these malice.

But ignorance can never be cured.

Not far away, in the darkening woodland.

In Lin Yu's vision, a behemoth appeared.

It was a corpse, and it was badly decomposed.

And above this corpse, there is something full of malice and greed, lying on it.

It was sipping pus from the corpse, and at the same time, its slender body drooped towards the water, and released its deeper malice towards it.
