This wasteland dedicated to burying corpses is divided into eight blocks according to the direction.

Du En and his team will take turns to bury the corpses in a clockwise direction. When it is their turn next time, the corpses buried last time have already been left with only a few pieces of dark soil.

At this time, Wei Ming was absent-minded, which he could see, and so could others, so they had no objection to his arrangement.

In fact, they even hoped that Wei Ming would not drag them down.

So they worked in pairs and officially started working.

Today is still a cloudless day. Relatively speaking, the humidity is lower than yesterday, so the actual feeling is slightly better.

The sun rose rapidly and soon became hot.

Wei Ming had a lot of problems, and after being exposed to the sun, he was naturally more dazed. He just listened to Du En's short words and worked mechanically.

Digging pits, carrying corpses, and burying corpses.

Until noon, everything was still smooth and calm.

Du En and his team were preparing to bury the ninth corpse.

It was the corpse of an old man, with age spots all over his face, and various pus bubbles on the exposed surface. There was a strange liquid swaying slightly inside. It was obvious that if it was broken, it would be very disgusting.

Even dangerous!

This can be seen from the clothes on the old corpse, which were still very neat, and no one had taken turns to touch it.

Obviously, this old corpse had a bad reputation when he was alive, or it was a deterrent, enough to make others dare not touch it randomly.

It is better to say that being able to live to such an old age outside this border city is itself a proof of good means!

"Be careful."

Du En reminded the absent-minded and mechanical Wei Ming.

The other party was quite obedient at this time, and he was careful when he was told to be careful. Du En felt that he was more suitable for this job than normal.

They carefully placed the corpse in the shallow pit they had just dug, without letting the strange pus bubbles on its body burst.

Seeing this, the others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Because the old corpse was too eye-catching, they had noticed it as soon as they arrived and were alert.

According to the rules, the corpse should be buried normally, without delay or haste, and whoever's turn it is, will do it.

Even if it was Duen's turn, they were paying close attention, so that if there was any accident, they could escape in time to avoid being caught in the crossfire.

Until now, the corpse was successfully placed in the pit without any problems...

They had just breathed a sigh of relief, and when they thought of this, an accident broke out!

They saw that a fist-sized foreign object suddenly bulged out from the chest and abdomen of the old corpse, as if it was stimulated by something violently, and it twisted rapidly and tore off its skin, flesh and clothes.

A weird worm!

The colorful appearance looks like a slug. Its mouth opens wide, revealing multiple ring teeth like lampreys. It flies straight towards Wei Ming, who is absent-minded and has no reaction at this time.

It was not until the poisonous insect was in front of him that he was shocked and came to his senses.

But it was too late!

At this moment, he couldn't dodge or use his magic power to resist.

The former was because he lost the initiative, and the latter was because he had just adapted to the existence of magic power in the past few days and had not yet mastered the skills. It was difficult for him to do it.

It's over!

Am I going to die?

Wei Ming was panicked, and his past flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern.

When he was young, he was carefree, living in the countryside, having fun, and didn't understand the elders' expectant and worried eyes. What was the reason?

As he grew up, he entered a special private school and began to study and understand the meaning of life. Only then did he gradually understand his situation and knew that he would be relocated in the future.

Later, he met the girl in the private school, and they fell in love with each other and chose to make a lifelong commitment... Then, they were separated and moved to two places. He came to the border town of Nanmo, practiced Qi, and started to do the dirty work of burying corpses.

In the days before he was assigned a job, he thought in his heart that he would work hard to cultivate immortality, make a name for himself in the future, find his lover, renew his previous relationship, and then return home in glory.

After he started working officially, he began to feel uneasy and panic, fearing that his lover, who was far away in the sky, had died miserably at this moment, and was buried in the ground by his colleagues in the distance without even a monument.

But now, it seems that he is the one who has to go first?

In Wei Ming's wide-open eyes, everything seemed to slow down. He could clearly see that wherever the colorful poisonous insects passed, the air was corroded with a little green smoke.

It was twisting its body, opening its mouth, and was about to bring an end to a life!

No!

I can't die!

He was shouting in his heart, extremely unwilling, and his expression began to be ferocious, but the poisonous insect was already in front of him.

Really, it was too late...

Pah!

A black shadow came from behind and at this time, it suddenly swept across Wei Ming's vision, covered the poisonous insect, and fell heavily on the ground, making a sticky splashing sound.

Hiss~

The sound of corrosion rose up.

Before Wei Ming came to his senses, he was pushed down by someone, and then his pants were directly taken off.

"Ah? Ah?"

He was like a fool, only uttering short syllables, and the ferocity on his face was frozen in the development. This time he was neither up nor down.

It was not until the others came over and dragged him away that he gradually came to his senses.

"Fuck! You scared me!"

"Didn't the guy in the previous link check it carefully? He actually let a lively poisonous insect hide in the corpse like this!"

"Ahem, at least it's good that it's not dead."

"Yeah, thanks to Boss Du's timely response, we were safe. You kid, don't be stupid there, say thank you quickly!"

The other four people talked in a flurry, letting Wei Ming understand the situation.

Just at the critical moment, it was Du En who picked up the shovel, swung it forward, and with the help of magic power, he was able to get there first and beat the poisonous insect to death on the ground.

He was also very agile, jumping out of the heavy shadows, avoiding the splashing poisonous insect juice, and then directly knocked Wei Ming down and stripped off his pants stained with poison.

At this moment, both the shovel as a weapon and the smelly pants were corroded directly at a speed visible to the naked eye with a hissing sound.

Until the corrosion was silently supported by the wasteland and gradually subsided, Du En moved his eyes away, turned his head, and looked at Wei Ming.

"Are you okay?"

"No, I'm fine, thank you, thank you, thank you..."

Wei Ming, who survived the disaster, answered stutteringly. At this moment, many emotions surged, and he couldn't help crying, "Thank you so much, if it weren't for you, I, I would never see Qiao'er again, thank you."

Seeing him like this, others couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh.
