Chapter 210: Loneliness in the dungeon
The deeper you go, the more you can see the light of the dim candle flame, accompanied by the sound of gurgling water.
At first, Su Tong didn't want to believe that there was water and fire under the ground, but when he saw a complete circular pool, the center of the lake was beating with a silver circle of light, and a small stream of water flowed in front of it, but he couldn't see the water in the pool overflowing and overflowing.
There are candlesticks on all four walls, and the warm yellow light sets off the dark and damp environment.
Wang Jing lay flat on the ground, and rested his head on the lowest stone step of the round pool.
When he leaned over, Su Tong saw that the beating silver aperture came from a thin hole in the top.
It should be the ground, but it's so high......
Look at this wall is smooth and round, there is nowhere to climb, it is difficult to take the unconscious Wang Jing up, and it is only a small hole, it will take time to make a big hole that can get out of people.
Su Tong frowned, his gaze temporarily moved from the thin hole that leaked a faint beam of light to Wang Jing at his feet, raised his eyes again, and hurriedly glanced at this place, the left side of the round pool was hidden behind a big pillar, there was a stone table and stone bench, and there was an expectation made of stone on it, and there was a game of chess with a differential score of winning and losing.
The black and white chess pieces, illuminated by the warm yellow candle flame, are smooth and distinct.
Su Tong's heart beat several times, and he didn't wait for him to get closer to confirm the guess in his heart.
The sound of light footsteps came from the depths of this large hall.
Listening to the footsteps, the joy of hope that surged in Su Tong's heart suddenly became much quieter, and many kinds of guesses flashed in his mind in an instant.
How could this person live in such a place where he could not see the light of day?
Will this person have anything to do with the people who are chasing them, after all, they didn't run away far.
This man may be a good man, but surely he will be able to save them?
After hesitating, he saw a touch of the same color as the deepest black color of the hall coming out of the darkness, his hands behind his back, his narrow eyes looked at him faintly, there was no surprise at seeing the strange intruder, a green silk tied behind him, a face was exquisite, whether he said or not, it was an extremely indifferent and calm look.
"Come with me. As soon as the man saw Su Tong, he stopped his steps, said a word without a beginning or an end, and then turned back into the darkness when he came.
Su Tong tightened his eyes, that dark place, would it be a way out, or a dead end with no way out at all?
"Wait. Su Tong called out to the man, "Where can I get out?"
The man stood alone for a moment, and let out a life-draining sigh, "Once you have entered here, you will never be able to get out again." ”
Su Tong's heart twisted fiercely, and he suddenly stopped breathing, and unconsciously took a step back.
"You have no way back, so follow me. Su Tong's only one movement was so small that there was no sound at all, which attracted the man's kind reminder.
"I can't go with you, I want to save my friend, and if you can save my friend, I can go with you. The feeling that that person gave Su Tong was very mysterious, and Su Tong couldn't help but expect that this person could save his dying companion.
The man slowly turned around again, looking at Su Tong's chaotic eyes as if he was constantly stirred and shaking by something, and for a long time in Su Tong's firm and clear eyes, he regained his calm, "Bring your friends and follow me." ”
He didn't say whether he could save people or not, Su Tong stood there and didn't want to move, he added, and turned into the darkness again, "Although I haven't saved people for a long time, as long as your friend still has a breath, he will definitely not let you down." ”
This is the longest and most forceful words after this person appeared, Su Tong did not hesitate, picked up Wang Jing again on the side, and hurriedly chased into the darkness.
Just as his eyes were dark, a candle suddenly lit up in front of him, and it was the person who had just spoken to him, who was going deeper.
Su Tong followed closely, but he felt that this place was much colder than the place outside, just like falling back from warm spring to midwinter.
"What's your name? Have you always lived here? How long have you been living here? Are you the only one here?"
One question after another, intermittently ringing in the deep, narrow corridor that allowed only one person to enter and exit.
Su Tong had been secretly observing the reaction of the person in front of him, but unfortunately, no matter how he asked, the person in front of him was indifferent, and there was no reaction other than calm.
He should be able to touch his heart, and when he told him just now that he was willing to go with him because he wanted to save his friend, he clearly saw him thoughtful.
"You must have been lonely living here alone since you were a child, do you have any friends? You weren't surprised to see me, did you know I was coming?"
Su Tong was unwilling to give up and continued to ask the leader in front of him.
"Those who come here are destined to be lonely in this life, and no matter how much warmth you have before, it will never appear in your future life. ”
In the long and narrow corridor, the man's words lasted like a spell.
Su Tong suddenly smelled a sad smell, something very bad must have happened to this person, so he was willing to be trapped here like this.
"You...... What's your name? We'll have a name when we meet again. Su Tong euphemistically tried to use his name again.
As he spoke, he turned another corner, Su Tong felt that he was too gullible to others, this was already the third fork in the road, and if he continued like this, he would probably be led lost by the people in front of him.
But there was a very melancholy and ridiculous voice in front of melancholy.
"Yue Feimu, a person who has long been out of this world. ”
Su Tong frowned, obviously alive, how can he say that he has long been out of this world?
"Yue Feimu, you weren't here in the first place, did you? How did you get here? Do you remember the way you came in here?"
Su Tong didn't let go of the slightest bit of information and clues to be able to leave here, he felt that such a big place, it was impossible to have no place to go in and out, otherwise, the people here would have starved to death a long time ago.
Maybe Su Tong shouted very loudly, and when he felt that his name was 'Yue Feimu', the person on his back grabbed his shoulder fiercely, but when he quietly lowered his eyes with excitement, he saw the hand embedded in his shoulder, and the eyes were still closed.
Although he didn't understand the reason, he was able to exert his strength, which was a good thing, Su Tong thought, and his heart was slightly relieved.
"I know you're not, so do you remember how long you've been here? Do you have family? Don't you worry about them worrying day and night about looking for you?"
Su Tong said these words in a low voice, as if he was Yue Feimu's relative, and his heart was heartbroken and worried.
Yue Feimu suddenly stopped, "They would be better off without me." ”
