The Mystical Biological Mother Returns, the Villainous Sons Stand Up Straight – Chapter 69

Ch 69: Son is Gone

After a few words, the three people behind them came in, looking at the dry bones in front with horrified expressions.

“What is this place?!”

Shan Zhu looked back, clearly they hadn’t walked out very far…

Gu Qingyin glanced at them, snapped her fingers, and closed the barrier.

“These… are fake, right?!” Tian Gang, a big and burly man, not only lowered his voice unconsciously but also spoke with a clear tremor, as if afraid of disturbing something.

Shan Zhu stared at the skull at her feet, her face pale.

As a doctor, she could naturally distinguish the authenticity of the bones. At least the one at her feet definitely belonged to a human. If all the bones here are real…

Shan Zhu gasped, the putrid smell rushed into her throat. After she realized what was emitting the smell, she immediately retched disgustedly. When she finally stopped, her eyes were red.

Huo Zhaohua was the most shocked. No matter how steady he usually seemed, he was still a child who hadn’t experienced much. Suddenly seeing this scene more terrifying than a horror movie, the shock in his heart was imaginable.

Especially when he thought that his mother had also strayed into this place, Huo Zhaohua became even more panicked.

He subconsciously looked at Gu Qingyin, who looked as usual, standing aside with her arms folded, waiting for them to adapt. Noticing his gaze, Gu Qingyin even turned her head and smiled at him.

It was just a distant and polite smile, but it instantly calmed Huo Zhaohua’s anxious heart a lot.

“I’ll give you another minute to adapt. After a minute, we’ll continue moving forward.” Gu Qingyin said with obvious distaste, “I told you to wait outside.”

The aggressive method was very useful, especially for the proud Shan Zhu. Before she spoke, she habitually took a deep breath, but as soon as the outside air rushed in, she subconsciously held her breath and quickly took out a mask from her backpack and put it on.

“I’m ready to go.”

If Shan Zhu could, Tian Gang naturally wouldn’t admit that he couldn’t. He swallowed his dry throat and said strongly, “I’m, I’m okay too.”

Huo Zhaohua didn’t need to say more. He now wished he could teleport to his mother’s side immediately. Although his mother was usually a bit fierce and controlling, she was actually not very brave. Suddenly entering this kind of place must have frightened her.

Gu Qingyin continued to lead the way, stepping onto the road paved with bones first. Her expression didn’t change at all, as if she were stepping on large cobblestones, not human bones.

Huo Xinghai followed behind her. After building himself up mentally for several seconds, he cautiously took a step.

The bones on the ground had been here for who knows how long. Some could support him, but some were very brittle and broke as soon as he stepped on them.

After only a few steps, Huo Xinghai’s pants were covered in bone fragments. He felt disgusted at first, but after walking a few more steps, he got used to it.

Huo Xinghai couldn’t help but sigh, people are indeed the animals most adaptable to their environment.

Behind him, Huo Zhaohua and the other two also endured their discomfort and followed, walking with difficulty, one foot deep and one foot shallow.

Only Gu Qingyin walked on the fragile bones as if on flat ground, never falling once.

Huo Xinghai was very envious, suspecting that his mother had some special method of identification, so he secretly followed Gu Qingyin’s footprints.

The first step down, nothing happened. The second step landed safely… Huo Xinghai was overjoyed and couldn’t help but make a “hey” sound, and then took another step.

After a “crack” sound, Huo Xinghai, who is 1.86 meters tall, disappeared on the spot.

When Gu Qingyin turned around to look, she only caught a glimpse of a shadow.

She was shocked. Her figure swayed as she rushed over, peered down, and her tense eyebrows relaxed slightly.

Below the bones was a pit with no support. Huo Xinghai was heavy, and the bones broke, so he just fell straight down.

However, the bottom of the pit was covered with leaves, so he shouldn’t be injured.

“Can you stand up?” Gu Qingyin asked.

Huo Xinghai was also startled and his heart almost jumped out. He moved his limbs to make sure there was no problem, then stood up straight, looked up at Gu Qingyin, gave a toothy smile, and reached out his hand.

Gu Qingyin bent down and reached out to grab Huo Xinghai’s hand, just as their fingers were about to touch.

Huo Xinghai’s figure suddenly became illusory.

Gu Qingyin’s pupils shrank sharply, and she subconsciously reached out to grab him, but only grabbed a void.

Huo Xinghai disappeared abruptly into the cave.
