Chapter 693: The Incense of Death

After about twenty minutes, the three of them arrived at the edge of the tropical virgin jungle at the bottom of the hillside.

It was already ten minutes at noon, and the scorching sunshine was shining on the earth. The three of them stood on the edge of the tropical jungle and felt a heat wave coming towards their faces.

“It’s so hot in here!”

Lan Qingling's sweat kept flowing out, and she fanned her red face with her little hands.

"The terrain here is low and it is surrounded by mountains, so the temperature will of course be relatively high!"

Yu Baiying said this, and then added: "The trees in the jungle are so dense, maybe it will be cooler."

"Then let's go into the jungle! I'm almost going to be dizzy from the sun if I stay here."

Lan Qingling said immediately, the sun above her head was really too hot.

Su Principle looked back at the hillside and saw a group of civets gathering on the top of the hillside, collectively spying on them but not chasing them down.

"It's really strange that those lingering ghosts haven't been chased down."

Lan Qingling also noticed the strange behavior of the raccoon dogs in the archipelago and couldn't help but murmured.

"It's best if they don't chase us down! Let's go into the jungle and look for anything edible!"

Yu Baiying said that she had also used up a lot of physical strength and needed to replenish it.

"All right!"

Although Su Yuan felt something was not right, he could not find the reason, so he responded and walked into the tropical jungle with the two women.

When entering the jungle, Su Yuan deliberately looked back and found that the archipelago civets gathered on the top of the hillside did not chase them down, but retreated angrily.

Su Yuan felt quite strange in his heart. Could it be that the raccoons in the archipelago had given up on them?

Although he couldn't understand it, Su Yuan couldn't care less, because their goal was to find the accomplices of the Black Spider Ninja.

After the three of them entered the vast tropical jungle, most of the harsh sunlight was blocked by the dense trees, and they immediately felt much cooler than outside.

"As expected, I am still comfortable in the jungle."

Lan Qingling muttered, she felt much better.

"This jungle is indeed quite comfortable."

Su Yuan nodded and suddenly realized something was wrong: "Is it too quiet here?"

Hearing what Su Yuan said, Lan Qingling and Yu Baiying noticed that the jungle was unusually quiet. They couldn't even hear a single chirp of birds or insects!

"Strange, why is it so quiet in this jungle? There isn't even a bird!"

Yu Baiying also said the same thing.

Su Yuan simply turned on his "Sky Eye" and scanned everywhere.

After some scanning with the "Sky Eye", Su Yuan discovered the anomaly.

So Su Yuan stepped forward and walked forward.

Su Yuan soon walked to the foot of a very tall old tree.

This old tree grows very luxuriantly, with a large number of parasitic roots hanging down. It is also surrounded by thick fallen leaves, and it is very fluffy when you step on it.

There were slight bulges where fallen leaves were accumulated. Su Yuan stepped forward and plucking them with his toes.

The fallen leaves were pulled out and scattered, and underneath was a rotting animal carcass!

The animal carcass had been highly decomposed, and most of it had turned into a dense white skeleton. It could be vaguely identified as a wild deer.

The strange thing is that this wild deer carcass does not have any stench of decay.

Lan Qingling and Yu Baiying also followed. They were both surprised when they saw the wild deer carcass.

"Judging from the shape and completeness of the carcass of this wild deer, it was not attacked by any external force. Instead, it seemed to have died suddenly!"

Lan Qingling came to this conclusion after carefully examining the wild deer carcass.

"It's quite strange that he died suddenly without being attacked! Could it be that this wild deer suffered from an incurable disease before his death?"

Yu Baiying also felt strange, and then she guessed this.

"This wild deer is not sick, but in fact very healthy!"

Su Yuan said this, because he had used his "clairvoyance" to scan it and knew that the wild deer was in very healthy and strong condition before it died suddenly.

"Um...if it was very healthy, why did it suddenly die suddenly?"

Lan Qingling and Yu Baiying both felt even more strange.

Su Yuan did not speak, but examined the ground for traces.

After a while, Su Yuan said: "This wild deer seemed to be chased by something before it died, and then it fled under this old tree and died suddenly."

When Lan Qingling and Yu Baiying heard this, they immediately went up and found a lot of messy footprints under the old tree, which were obviously made by wild deer when they were running.

"What on earth was it being chased by that caused it to die suddenly without any scars?"

Su Yuan fell into deep thought because this phenomenon was really weird.

Lan Qingling and Yu Baiying were also puzzled...

Logically speaking, if a wild deer is chased by its natural enemies or predators, it will definitely run for its life. If it is chased, its carcass will definitely not be so intact. If it is not chased, why does it suddenly die suddenly?

In order to find clues, Su Yuan once again turned on his "Sky Eye" and searched around.

After a while, Su Yuan discovered another raised dead branch.

I walked over and pulled out the dead branches, and found a dead leopard!

And judging from the degree of decomposition of the leopard's carcass and the intactness of its fur, it didn't take long for it to die, only three or four days at most.

Su Yuan carefully examined the dead leopard and found that there were no injuries on its body, including traces around it. It died suddenly and suddenly!

Lan Qingling and Yu Baiying also followed, looking at the leopard's body in a daze.

You know, unlike wild deer, leopards are the top predators in the jungle, and there are very few beasts that can harm them.

Moreover, leopards can run extremely fast, and they can suddenly die suddenly while running! It is really incredible.

The three of them couldn't figure out what was going on, so they continued to search for clues in the tropical jungle.

Afterwards, the three of them discovered the carcasses of at least a dozen animals one after another!

These dozen animals include rabbits, jungle cats, badgers, wild boars, etc... and their death patterns are exactly the same as wild deer and leopards, they all died suddenly while running!

"It's so strange. What happened to these dead animals?"

Lan Qingling really couldn't figure it out, so she tried to analyze it with a straight face.

At this moment, Su Yuan suddenly smelled a strange smell, and he couldn't help but twitch his nose.

Then, Su Yuan smelled a strange aroma!
