Chapter 272: The Secret Passage of Rixian Village
As she was about to return to Elysium, Xuanyu didn't know that while he was leisurely waiting for the two girls to make a decision, Lucia was being chased around. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Time returned to the moment when it was just dawn, and Dean Angela, who rushed into the stone house in a panic, brought bad news - Dora was captured and reads;!
When Lucia heard this, she felt that her brain was swollen and her mind was restless, and she was a little flustered. At this moment, he didn't know what to do, just stood in place, and only said after half a sound: "How come?"
"She said she was thirsty, so I went to fetch her water, and when I came back, I saw that she had been taken away by Mama Amanda. If I hadn't hid in time, I'm afraid no one would have come to deliver a letter to you!" said Dean Angela eagerly, "Also, don't go back, they have laid a net there, waiting for you to take the bait!"
"Is Dora locked up in the tower?" said Lucia.
Abbot Angela shook her head: "I saw them escorting her out of the monastery gates!"
Lucia felt an inexplicable palpitation, her heart beat faster, and her blood rushed to her scalp: "I'll go and save her back!"
Dean Angela desperately grabbed Lucia's arm: "You are going to die, there are more than one or two demon beasts under their hands! If even you are caught, no one will be able to save us!"
Lucia didn't stop, she stubbornly dragged Dean Angela forward until she walked to the door of the tower's secret passage: "Yes! There is someone who can save you! If I can't, it's only him!"
The first figure that came to Lucia's mind was Xuanyu, even if she didn't want to admit it, but at the most critical moment, Xuanyu was always the person she relied on the most!
"But if you are killed by them, even if someone comes to save you, it will be in vain!"
Dean Angela's words pierced Lucia's heart, she suddenly stopped, and was stunned, by the way, why didn't she think that she and Xuanyu lived and died together? If she was so reckless, it would affect him! As soon as she thought that Xuanyu might die, Lucia's heart was pinched and painful!
"And what do we do?" Lucia, distraught and unable to sort out her troubled thoughts for a while, left the decision to Dean Angela, who had always been calm.
"Do you have a friend?" said Dean Angela.
Lucia nodded, "But he should be in Agrim now!"
Dean Angela leaned close to Lucia's ear and said, "We must get out of Elysium as soon as possible!" I know there is a passage to cross the ocean and go straight back to Agrim!
Lucia didn't expect that there was such a passage on Elysium Island at all, and she didn't have time to think about it before she made a decision: "Okay, you lead the way!"
Abbot Angela nodded, and led Lucia into the tower, through a secret door, into the three-story low building to the right of the abbey, where she did find an old passageway, but it was not the one that led to Agrim.
When Lucia emerged from the other side of the passage, she found herself in the village of Sunstring. Dean Angela saw Lucia's confusion, and before she could speak, she explained, "The passage I'm talking about is hidden in the Rixian Village!
Lucia thinks that such a passage should be set up in a more secluded place, but on second thought, the so-called great seclusion in the city may be the truth. However, if it is really in Rixian Village, then the villagers here should know, but judging from the previous visits, they really don't know, or rather, they are collectively playing dumb?
Lucia's analysis was correct, and when Dean Angela led her into the Grove family's tavern, she saw it in the eyes of the proprietress and the boys. They were in the know! As soon as they remembered the complaints of the large number of merchants who had stayed here before, a cold wind suddenly swished in their hearts. It seems that this Rixian Village is indeed not as simple as Yueqin Village.
However, now is not the time to think about this, Lucia spends all her energy on guarding, although she is out of the monastery, she is still on the island of Elysium after all, and it is never safe. Fortunately, Dean Angela has a high prestige among the villagers, and along the way, all the villagers she met saluted her, and kept her mouth shut under the dean's instructions, it seems that the dean's previous contributions to the villagers are quite useful.
Lucia and Dean Angela enter the small warehouse at the back of the tavern, and Grove's mother sweeps the straw and floating dirt from the ground with her feet, revealing a door that resembles a cellar.
"Is this the entrance to the passage?" asked Lucia.
"That's right, only me, the innkeeper and the murdered sisters know about this passage, and it seems right that I didn't tell them at the beginning!" said Dean Angela, turning to the proprietress again, "They will surely hunt us down in a moment, you ......"
Before she finished speaking, the proprietress said, "Don't worry, my mouth can't be pried open by anyone!"
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a fierce knock on the door outside, and everyone looked nervous. Groff, who was guarding the door, crawled into the small warehouse: "She...... They're coming, they're going to search the room!"
"It's coming so fast!" the proprietress rolled her eyes and bent down to pull the door up, revealing a dark hole, "Hurry up, if they break in, I won't be able to stop them!"
Angela nodded and patted the proprietress on the shoulder. She looked at Lucia again and motioned for her to go down first. But Lucia just stood where she was and didn't move at the entrance of the cave: "If they come in, I can hold out for a while with my ability, so you go first!"
Angela sighed, but didn't say anything, maybe she agreed with Lucia's approach, maybe she didn't want to waste time on arguing, she grabbed the candlestick handed over by the proprietress and followed the glowing candlelight, and walked down first. At first, there are more than a dozen rough steps, and the further down you go, the smoother it becomes. Following Dean Angela, Lucia could only see the dancing candle flame in front of her, and the dark back in the firelight. Lucia heard the door slamming behind her, and in that moment she saw the candle flame shaking violently.
Gradually, the candle flame was a little blurred. Lucia suddenly felt a deep sleepiness, she shook her head, trying to make herself more awake, and at the same time opened her mouth to talk to Dean Angela to dispel the sleep: "How did you find out about this passage in the first place?"
"While the house was being repaired, one of the sisters fell down and found out by mistake. Dean Angela said.
"So the Groves don't know?" said Lucia, yawning.
They didn't know about it, but when the monastery built a house and a tavern, they promised not to tell outsiders. ”
"How can you be sure they won't betray you?" Luciardel asked, sharply.
Dean Angela didn't think so, but said lightly: "Everything must be subject to the will of the gods!" At this, she suddenly stopped and turned around, "Lucia, do you feel sleepy?"
Looking at the dancing candle flame, Lucia yawned again, and suddenly felt that her eyelids were like a thousand pounds: "Yes, after all, I haven't slept all night......"
The candle flame flickered, far and near. The pale and beautiful face in the firelight pasted on: "Lucia, do you feel anything wrong?"
"Where...... Isn't ......that right?" Lucia wanted to think, but her mind couldn't turn. With a stumble, she fell forward. Before she lost consciousness, she saw the candle flame grow dimmer and flicker, like a ghostly ghost.
