Chapter 597: A Hive-like Hole
"Ghost queen, you follow closely, if you lose it, you will be in trouble. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeใ infoโ
As soon as I entered the deep three-meter-high cave, Xiao Yue walked in front of me with a dim silk lantern to lead the way, and the entire cave was pitch black, except for a little light under Xiao Yue's feet, I couldn't see anything clearly.
But with the wind blowing from all directions, I can feel that Satsuki is not lying, there should be a lot of exits here, but I don't know where those exits are connected.
I also thought about deliberately not following Satsuki, and then casually turned into an intersection, but then I thought about the man-eating flowers and skeletal grass I met outside just now, and I couldn't help but hurried two steps to catch up with Satsuki, not afraid of 10,000, just in case, what if there was something more terrifying waiting for me at those unknown exits?
Now I have neither immortal power nor any weapons to defend myself from, so if I really encounter something, I'm afraid I won't even have scum left.
"Ghost queen, we're going to get into a lower hole later, we can't straighten up like here anymore, we need to bow our heads."
As soon as Xiao Yue's words fell, the silk lamp in her hand swept slightly in front of me, and I couldn't help but widen my eyes and look at the hole like a beehive mouth, densely spread all over my eyes.
Each hole is only more than a meter high, not to mention that you need to bow your head, if you want to pass, you have to climb down to pass.
Xiao Yue stood in front of these dense cave entrances and kept muttering something, I leaned over slightly to hear what she was muttering, who knew that the body had just reached in front of her, Xiao Yue raised her head suddenly, and looked at me puzzled, "What are you doing so close to the slave maid so close, Queen of the Ghost?" โ
"Huh? No, nothing. Satsuki, what were you just reading? โ
He jerked back, straightened up, and laughed awkwardly.
"Oh, just now the slave and maid were reciting the wayfinding spell that the lady taught the slave and maid, and only one of these holes leads to the place where the lady is imprisoned, if you enter the wrong place, the consequences will be unimaginable."
"Done? So which one should we take? โ
Why is the anxiety in my heart getting heavier?
Xiao Yue said that Eldest Sister Tianxin was locked up in the Black Stone Forest, but how do I feel like she is being locked up in the Black Stone Forest now, but like she is being protected here.
Outside the cave, there are man-eating flowers and skewers guarding it, and there are thousands of dense and dizzying holes in the cave, all of which point to one point, it is very likely that the eldest sister of Tianxin is not locked up here.
Moreover, looking at the familiarity of Satsuki's coming here, it doesn't seem like it's the first time, but it looks like she's been here many times.
Obviously, Xiao Yubai sent someone to monitor the whereabouts of all the ghost maids in the dormitory, but why was Xiaoyue able to avoid those black-clothed people and not be discovered by the black-clothed people?
All kinds of questions fell on me like a pouring of rain, and at this time, looking at Xiaoyue's pretty and delicate face under the dim silk lamp, my heart pounded again, and blood seemed to rush to the top of my head all at once.
Is Satsuki really just a little ghost?
"Okay, Madame replied to the slave maid, go that one!"
Looking at Satsuki's fingers, my mouth was so surprised that I could swallow an egg, "IโShall we climb up?" "Looking at the holes that are dozens of meters high from the ground, and then looking at the holes that are more than one meter high, I vaguely estimate in my heart how I will climb to ensure that I don't slip and fall down from a moment.
Or do you want to go back the way you came, and be eaten by a man-eating flower or crushed by a skewer, is it better to be thrown into meat sauce from a high place?
Just as I racked my brains to think about countermeasures, Xiao Yue raised the silk lamp in his hand at me, the bright light flashed in front of my eyes, and then the bright light paused on a raised stone like a stool, Xiao Yue shook the silk lamp in his hand, pointed there and whispered to me:
"Not really. These holes will change their position every minute, and soon the hole will be our turn, if you are tired, sit down for a while, and when the next hole is your turn, the slave will call you. โ
Changing positions every minute?
This is even more certain of the conjecture in my heart just now, if it is said that these holes are to prevent the eldest sister of Tianxin from escaping, but just now Xiaoyue mentioned the pathfinding spell and it was taught to her by the eldest sister of Tianxin.
So there's only one answer, and these holes are meant to prevent others from entering.
And I don't know who those others are.
"Xiaoyue, since you have a little time now, you are idle anyway, how about we have a chat?"
Sitting on the stool that Satsuki just pointed to, I was indeed a little tired after walking for so long.
"What do you want to talk about?"
Satsuki turned her back to me, her hand holding the silk lantern high above her head, her eyes fixed on the thousands of beehive-like holes in front of her.
"She's not locked up here, is she?"
"Huh?"
Satsuki looked back at me puzzled, "What do you mean by that, Ghost Queen?" โ
I stood up abruptly and walked up to Satsuki, "Actually, you didn't bring me to see her because you didn't want me to save her, did you?" And she doesn't need me to save her at all, does she? โ
"Ghost, ghost, what are you talking about? The slave didn't understand...... Yes! The entrance to the cave is here, and we're going in. โ
Xiao Yue slapped her head suddenly, and excitedly pointed to a hole opposite her stomach, "Ghost queen, if you have any questions, go in with the slave and ask Madame, Madame is waiting for us on the other side of the cave." โ
Ask Elder Sister Tianxin?
Crawling through this hole, when I got there, it was clear whether the eldest sister of Tianxin was locked up or protected.
"Okay, let's go."
"Oh, that, that, this is going to wronged you, I, we need to crawl over."
Looking at the entrance of the cave a little more than a meter high, I nodded helplessly, if I don't climb, can I kneel or not?
As soon as I climbed into the hole, my hands were bitterly cold, so I couldn't help but shrink my hands, tighten my hands into my sleeves, and then touch the ground through my sleeves, relieving the icy ground a little.
Looking up at Xiao Yue who was crawling in front, the faint light of the silk lantern illuminated the stone wall above Xiao Yue's head, which was as black as ink.
"Ghost, ghost, will you follow?"
There was a panting voice from the front, I rubbed my frozen hands, and then rubbed my cold face, and whispered: "Well, I'll follow, how long will it take to get out?" โ
Call!
Why does it get colder the further you climb?
"It's fast, it's fast, you hold on to it."
"Okay."
Gritting my teeth, I continued to retract my hand into my sleeve, and then crawled forward through my sleeve, I don't know how long I climbed, my forehead gradually sweated, the air began to become stuffy, and the ground under my hand was like a hot rock, hot and hot, "Whew! Call! It's hot! It's hot! Moon! Wait a minute! It's so hot here! โ
"Ghost queen, please bear with me, after here, there is an exit ahead."
Xiao Yue's voice came faintly from not far ahead, I raised my head and looked at the light and jumped into the distance, gritted my teeth, grabbed my sleeves again and quickly crawled forward. (To be continued.) )
