By the time the two of them finished eating, it was already past nightfall. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, Xue Ningqing stood in front of a courtyard building, pointed to a dark window upstairs and said, "Tuoba, Xie Wanxin's room is there." ”

Tuoba Rongren was a little helpless, it turned out that what she said about post-meal exercise digestion and digestion was referring to this?

"Tuoba, look, the window is not closed, you can push it open from the outside." Xue Ningqing's eyes looked sharply in that direction.

Tuoba Rongren hugged his arms: "Xiaoqing, do you want to go in and have a look?" ”

"Yes!" Xue Ningqing ran to the base of the wall in a few steps, jumped up and stuck his whole body against the wall, and then climbed up lightly.

Coming to the window, she pulled the slit open and rolled her body in.

His feet hit the ground, and there was another click behind him, and Tuoba Rongren also got in.

It was dark in the room, and naturally there was no one.

Tuoba Rongren stood up straight, walked forward generously, and lit candles on several candlesticks, while Xue Ningqing quickly closed the curtains, with a layer of ash sticking to his hands.

This room looks no different from Taoba Rongren's residence, with almost no furnishings other than the simple furniture that is common to every suite.

Xue Ningqing checked in the room one by one, a layer of ash was sticky to the big bed in the bedroom, and there were only a few clothes in the wardrobe that were folded a little too regularly.

Tuoba Rongren sat on the sofa and saw Xue Ningqing come back to the front after going around, and teased: "Xiaoqing, your huge amount of money is not here, are you disappointed again?" ”

Xue Ningqing raised her eyebrows, her face was not disappointed, but also a little proud: "I didn't think that I would find what I lost here, I came here just to make sure of one thing, now that I've seen it, let's go." ”

Tuoba Rongren himself was a little puzzled: "Huh? What are you going to be sure of? ”

"I'm sure you and Li Xuanlang are hiding something from me, there is something about the academy, and the answer is in the manhole cover before." Xue Ningqing smiled mysteriously, her pale golden eyes shimmering in the candlelight.

Tuoba Rongren smiled bitterly: "Then you are going to pry the manhole cover next?" "This woman's stubbornness is really deep.

"You're right this time!"

The two left the suite, of course, by the door.

Still in that open space, Xue Ningqing stood on the edge of the manhole cover, holding a strong iron sword in his hand, the tip of the sword was propped up on the ground, and looked at Tuoba Rongren who was holding his arms and bowing his head in front of him: "Tuoba, this academy is far more than it looks like this, right under my feet, there should be another space." ”

Tuoba Rongren raised his eyebrows: "Heh, this is the secret you discovered?" There was a bit of amusement in his silver eyes.

"Yes. No one among the students knew. I think the scale of the academy underground is even bigger than I imagined, and Xie Wanxin did not live in the courtyard of the academy, but lived under the surface. Moreover, the expelled Yu Yong is likely to be in there now! If that were the case, the organization behind the academy would be a bit mysterious, wouldn't it? If it's just a job like teaching and educating people, why are the expelled mentors hidden? I see that this academy accepts students on the surface, but secretly runs other things! The corners of Xue Ningqing's mouth hooked, waiting to see Tuoba Rongren's expression, these don't really have to say it yourself, this guy on the other side actually knows it!

Tuoba Rongren didn't have any special expression, neither surprised nor panicked, and still looked at her with interest: "Oh? Then why don't you quickly pry open the manhole cover and then jump in? ”

Xue Ningqing raised his sword and waved: "Hmph, pry it open in a while, are you standing here waiting for me or going with me?" ”

Tuoba Rongren's expression on his face couldn't help but laugh, and Xue Ningqing really wanted to cut it down with a sword: "Little ...... Qing, don't worry, pry it open. ”

Xue Ningqing squinted and stared at the past: "Then you just keep your eyes open and watch!" ”

With a bang, the iron sword in Xue Ningqing's hand stabbed hard into the gap on the edge of the manhole cover, but after the sound, it didn't penetrate for half a minute, and slipped out when it touched the manhole cover.

Xue Ningqing frowned, this thing is still tightly pressed?

I don't have to try a second time, it looks like I'll have to think of something else.

Putting away the iron sword, Xue Ningqing thought for a moment, raised his hand and waved out a battle qi, and when he fell, he slapped the ground vigorously, and with a dull sound, the manhole cover jumped upward, and then immediately fell back to its original place.

It seems to work! Xue Ningqing took several pictures in a row, but every time the manhole cover just moved upward, and it fell back before he could reach out and grab it.

Tuoba Rongren finally couldn't help laughing out loud on the side: "Xiaoqing, it seems that you can't shoot it, do you beg me to help you shoot it open?" ”

Xue Ningqing stood up straight, his eyes were not very good-looking, but in an instant, his eyes were gentle and watery: "Tuoba, you said you could pry it open, do you want to show it to me?" ”

Tuoba Rongren knew her tricks, but he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and skipped the picture of Xue Ningqing naked in his mind, if he could match the expression just now, how perfect it would be!

Just fantasized about it, the surface did not show the slightest flaw, the perfect line of the calf flicked, the whole person jumped high, there was no breath out, a palm from the air to the ground to shoot down, only to hear a sonorous sound, a three-foot-thick manhole cover directly bounced up from the ground, fell on the ground not far away, smashed open a pit.

A gust of wind blew from the manhole onto Xue Ningqing's face, blowing her hair away, and there was some surprise in her eyes, but she recovered quickly, and she didn't give Tuoba Rongren a word of praise.

Looking down at the manhole, under the moonlight, a pool of clean water rushed rapidly, not only did it not smell, but even the fresh smell of water wafted out.

Tuoba Rongren teased again: "Xiaoqing, this is your underground world?" ”

Xue Ningqing didn't pay attention to it, didn't give Tuoba Rongren a look at him, and jumped into the manhole.

The water is bottomless and boundless.

Xue Ningqing plunged into the water, was swept by the undercurrent and brought all the way forward, at first she could still hold her breath, kicked the water with both legs and tried to surface, but the scope of this undercurrent was even larger than she expected, and she didn't get rid of it after several attempts, the oxygen in her lungs was depleted sharply, and a feeling of tightness gradually appeared on the façade, and her throat suffocated.

After another moment, the water temperature became very hot, Xue Ningqing couldn't help but open her mouth and cough in the water, the hot water poured into her throat, choked into her lungs, and the last trace of oxygen was also consumed, feeling that her eyes were about to burst out of her sockets, she couldn't help but stare at her legs, just one more moment, she would not be able to support it.

There was a pulling force behind her, and there was another series of tumbling in the water, and the moment she was about to close her eyes, she finally surfaced, and immediately coughed violently and took a few deep breaths.

"You're such a nuisance!" Tuoba Rongren's handsome face was shining with water, and his eyes were full of reproach.

Xue Ningqing just wanted to return a few words to him, but was surprised to find that he could see his face.

There's light here!

Only then did he look around, but only saw a strong water vapor floating on the water, blocking the vision from seeing clearly, and only a cloud of red light could be seen through the water vapor.

"Tuoba, what is this place, why is it so hot?"

Tuoba Rongren's face did not have that cynical ruffian, but a straight face: "In short, after you get to the place where there is ground, you follow me." ”

Xue Ningqing nodded and didn't ask any further.

The two held hands and swam in one direction, and the further they went, the higher the temperature in the water became, which was faintly unbearable.

Approaching the red light, a loud and dull roar came, followed by another sound, Xue Ningqing's face was already red in the water, and when he heard this cry, his heart tightened: "Tuoba, what's in front?" ”

Tuoba Rongren didn't answer her directly: "Aren't you looking for the underground world?" You can't find it without going through the place in front of you. ”

"You know it all!" Didn't you say you had no secrets about yourself? Although she knew that it was a man's lie, she would still be resentful in her heart at this time, "Tuoba Rongren, I won't believe every word you say anymore!" Xue Ningqing is still a woman after all, and when she said this, she was obviously in a mood.

"Shhhhh

Xue Ningqing was stunned, and didn't have time to digest this sentence, so he immediately said stiffly: "Don't believe it!" ”

Tuoba Rongren grinned, this woman is really too nerve-wracking.

Floating on a shoal, the two finally got ashore, where the water vapor was even stronger, and there was even a smell of sulfur in the breath, and the shore was as hot as the water.

Tuoba Rongren pulled Xue Ningqing forward: "After walking out of this fog for a while, we can only walk slowly, and we must not run, understand?" ”

Xue Ningqing said "um" and agreed, thinking that there must be some fierce beast in the bright red light in front of her, but Tuoba Rongren was by her side, she was much more relieved, and saw that he grabbed a one-foot-diameter round shield in his other hand at some point.

Gradually, the fog in front of me thinned out, and I was able to see the scene ahead.

It was a large pool of sulfur, and there were flames burning everywhere in the sulfur pool, and there were three huge earth dragons crawling!

The Volcanic Dragon is a wingless dragon that is extremely large and capable of spitting large expanses of poisonous flames from its mouth. Once provoked, they can become very dangerous.

However, their eyesight is rather bizarre, and they are very sensitive to things in rapid motion, and people can swagger under their noses as long as they keep their movements slow.

Xue Ningqing was already covered in sweat at this time, and the firelight in front of her was reflected in her golden eyes: "Tuoba, those people in the academy are still raising dragons here?" What else is there besides these? ”

Xue Ningqing was not afraid of these earth fire dragons, she was just worried that there would be other fierce beasts or more troublesome things waiting for her all the way in.

"Hehe, Xiaoqing, are you afraid?"

"Tuoba Rongren, if you don't run me, will you feel uncomfortable? If you want me to say that there must be a safe way to enter here, either teleportation or secret passage, you pretended to be simple with me from the beginning, and you knew early in the morning that there would be so much trouble coming down from the manhole! ”

Tuoba Rongren chuckled: "Are you blaming me for not loving you?" Do you want Li Xuanlang to know that you have infiltrated here? ”

"Stop, I won't argue with you." Xue Ningqing stopped talking, and walked forward with the slippery sulfur under his feet.
