Chapter 123: He Died In The Lake

Translator: Law Editor: Hitesh_

As Du Yuanxing was attacking, Yang Cheng’s automatic reflex was to cross his arms before his face and prepare to dodge by using his wind power.

However, his feet didn’t feel any wind… That wasn’t right; he did feel a wind, but it wasn’t strong enough to support his body!

After realizing that, he froze in shock. Without the help of the wind, he immediately felt that Du Yuanxing’s attack was going to land on his body.

‘I’m dead!’ He thought. But then, as he prepared himself for the electric strike, nothing happened.

He didn’t understand. He thought something was wrong with himself when failing to trigger his wind power, but why didn’t Du Yuanxing attack him??He confusedly dropped his hands to look at Du Yuanxing, then found that the latter was staring as his sparkling hands.

Du Yuanxing too looked bewildered.

At that point, Du Yuanxing noticed Yang Cheng’s move, so he raised his head and made eye contact with him. They saw the confusion in each other’s eyes, then both paused.

But soon, Du Yuanxing took the initiative to attack. After realizing that he couldn’t use his electric power at the moment, he learned from Yang Cheng’s look that his power was disabled as well. So, he immediately pulled the pistol which was carried on his belt.

Seeing Du Yuanxing pull out a gun, Yang Cheng was frightened, then turned and ran right away.

Yang Cheng’s guns had been taken away by Lin Qiao, so by now, he had no way to fight back. When he turned around, he found a lake and a grassland. The grassland was too far away, but the lake was relatively close.

So, he made a prompt decision and jumped into the lake.

Bang!

A gunshot was heard In the space, vibrating the air and echoing for a while.

Plop!

Following a plop, Yang Cheng jumped into the lake. But soon, the water near him turned red.

Lin Qiao couldn’t see him, but soon sensed the scent of blood. So, she immediately figured out that Yang Cheng was shot, but couldn’t know if he was dead or not.

“He has been shot! But, he jumped into the lake. Is there anything at the bottom of your lake?” Long Qingying ran to the lakeside and saw the blood spreading on the water surface. She stared at the water for a short while, but failed to see Yang Cheng.

So, she asked Lin Qiao that.

Lin Qiao thought for a moment. She didn’t think anything existed down there except for those vines.

She shook her head while standing by the lake and watching the rippling water surface. Then, she began wondering what would Yang Cheng turn into.

She was never hurt by the lake, but Xie Dong was turned into a strange zombie in the lake, and the wind-powered zombie was drained. Yang Cheng had jumped in as a living human being, so she couldn’t tell what would happen to him.

The lake was more mysterious than she had imagined.

Du Yuanxing walked to the lakeside with the gun. The three of them stood side by side, staring at the rippling water surface.

“Isn’t this your space? Don’t you know what’s in there? Then, why did you throw me in earlier?” Du Yuanxing thought that Lin Qiao didn’t know what was in the lake as he saw her shaking her head.

Lin Qiao glanced at him without responding.

Long Qingying carried her katana, her eyes fixed on the lake surface.

A minute later, the three of them found that the lake surface was still rippling, without showing a sign of calming down. Before, this lake had always been peaceful, but now, it just wouldn’t stop rippling.

Those ripples clearly told the three that Yang Cheng must have encountered something down in the lake.

Ten minutes later, they finally saw something slowly floating up from the deeper area of the lake. From the clothes, they recognized it as none other than Yang Cheng.

Yang Cheng floated up to surface motionlessly, face down and back up. The strange thing was that he wasn’t floating on the surface like a normal corpse should. A normal corpse should be nearly soaking in the water, with only a part of its head and back exposed. But unlike that, he was floating there like a dried piece of wood. Almost his entire body was above the water surface, as if he was a plastic dummy.

“What’s going on…? Is he dead?” Du Yuanxing stared at Yang Cheng’s body and asked.?Lin Qiao sniffed at the air. She sensed no scent of living human beings from Yang Cheng, which meant he was dead indeed.

But now, she was thinking about something else.

A dead man was now soaking in the lake… Earlier on, a zombie was soaked in, and now, there was a dead man… So, should she drink from this lake again or not?

She knew that the lake water was able to wash the virus away, and the lake was rather large. But, she still couldn’t accept drinking the water which had soaked a dead zombie and a dead man…

‘Eh? But I’ve been taking a bath in the lake all this while. Why didn’t I feel disgusted earlier on when drinking from the lake? Haven’t I been drinking my own bath water?’

‘Damn! I suddenly feel a little disgusted! What should I do?’

Then, she recalled that she had been cooking for the little boy with the water in the lake as well. She comforted herself that it would be fine. She told herself that the lake was large and full of water, so she wouldn’t happen to drink her own bath water…

Moreover, she had been avoiding her bathing spot!

At that moment, Yang Cheng’s body moved toward the three of them, as if something was pushing it.

“Is there something in the lake?” Seeing that, both Long Qingying and Du Yuanxing took a few steps backward, then pointed at Yang Cheng’s body and asked Lin Qiao.

Lin Qiao came back to her senses, then found that Yang Cheng’s body was getting closer and closer to them. She immediately took off her sunglasses to look at the lake.

She saw a long and faint figure down in the water. That thin, tentacle-like thing was pushing Yang Cheng to the lakeside.

Lin Qiao was familiar with that thing, as it was nothing else but a green vine from the lake bottom.?‘How did Yang Cheng die? He didn’t drown, did he? Did Du Yuanxing shoot him to death?’?She wondered.

She saw the vine draw back toward the lake bottom after sending Yang Cheng’s body to the shallow area, about three meters away from her feet.?After that, she bent over to roll up her pants and take off her shoes, then walked into the water.

Yang Cheng’s body was about three meters away from the lakeside, but as the water was shallow in this area, Lin Qiao walked straight to him and dragged him back to the lakeside.

However, after coming back ashore, she found that the bottoms of her trouser legs were still wetted.

She didn’t care about that, but immediately squatted by the corpse to try figuring out the reason for his death, and why he looked different from normal corpses.
