Chapter 18: Escape from the Dungeon

Xiao Mu was dressed in a night dress, and the black veil covering her face was picked off by Sheng Ge with a knife.

"You don't have to be so hostile to me, and I'm not here for what you have."

Sheng Ge looked at Xiao Yu with a cold face, not believing what she said.

"Oh? It's not for what I have in my hands, it's still for Jinse. ”

Xiao Mu's attitude was much more relaxed, she took out something from her arms and handed it to me.

"This is the map of the dungeon, you have learned how to unlock the locks very well, and you will definitely be able to escape if you cooperate with her."

Sheng Ge's eyes flashed, looking at me and then at Xiao Mu, but the scimitar never took it away from Xiao Mu's neck.

"Linglan's matter is a little tricky, Mama Li can't take care of you for the time being, tonight is your only chance to escape!"

Thinking of what Aunt Qin said about the seventeen family that was wiped out because of adopting me, I didn't dare to take the map.

"Why did you teach me the tricks of the Southern Tang Dynasty?"

Xiao Mu's eyes were gentle: "You have very good qualifications, it's just right to be my apprentice." I can't afford to lose my knowledge. ”

Sheng Ge took the map, but scoffed at Xiao Mu's claim.

"There are more people in the world with better qualifications than her, and the little maid next to you looks much smarter than her, why don't you teach her?"

Xiao Mu was not annoyed, and sneered: "This world is much smarter than her, why are you so friendly with her?" ”

"You can't take care of it"

"Huh...... Each other, each other."

When I thought of my mother, I suddenly had a guess in my mind: "Who are you?" ”

Xiao Mu looked at me with a gentle and firm gaze.

"I'm from Liyuan"

She really is also a mother's person!!

I steadied my mind and pressed the joy in my heart to urge her to leave: "Then you go quickly, in case you are discovered, you will be finished." ”

Sheng Ge confirmed that the map was real and put away the scimitar.

"I won't take your map for nothing"

Xiao Mu knew that I understood, so he didn't stop staying: "No need, I'm not here to save you, if you want to thank her, protect her"

Soon, Falla disappears into the gloomy dungeon.

"Cut, what's the big deal."

I was hesitating how to tell Shengge about my background.

She was imprisoned in order to save me, and she confessed her life experience to me openly and honestly, if we escaped today, it would be considered a friend of life and death.

It's a friend of life and death, and it's not good for me to keep it from her like this.

"Actually......"

"This dungeon is very exquisitely designed, and it contains the principle of gossip and the five elements, if you don't have a map or don't understand the five elements, I'm afraid you'll be trapped here."

"I don't understand the ...... of the five elements"

"I understand!"

Sheng Ge took the map into his arms and tied up his clothes: "Are you water-sensitive?" ”

"A little."

Sheng Ge nodded: "You must follow me closely after me for a while, and don't walk around by yourself." ”

I wore my clothes like Shengge: "How are your feet, can you walk?" ”

Sheng Ge frowned and led me in front: "It's okay, I can bear it!" ”

"What did you just say?"

"Nothing ......"

Forget it, let's go out first.

I followed her closely, she walked and I walked, she stopped and I stopped, she told me to go and solve the mechanism, and I went to solve the mechanism.

It was very smooth.

The dungeon was much bigger than I had imagined, and suddenly Shengge stopped.

Looking at the map, we have come to the last fork.

But there are waterways on both sides, and there seem to be exits.

"What should I do?"

"Try them all......"

"Okay...... Well...... Which side to choose? ”

There seems to be inscriptions on the doors on both sides of the fork.

Sheng Ge blew the fire fold, and approached the words to see more clearly.

The inscription on the door on the left is: "A thought arises from anger, and a million obstacles are opened." ”

The inscription on the right is: "Flowers bloom and give birth to two sides, life is between Buddha and demons." ”

"What do you mean?" It seems to be like the language of Buddha.

"This first sentence is from the Huayan Sutra"

Sheng Ge touched his chin and thought about how to explain to me concisely:

"To put it simply, it's ......"

"Just don't have hatred and jealousy in your heart, once you have such thoughts, you will easily let yourself fall into endless suffering"

"What about the second sentence?"

"The second sentence is that flowers have two sides, and people are also good and bad, there are no absolute good people and no absolute evil people in this world, good and evil are between people's thoughts"

I listened to the clouds: "Oh......"

"Which one do we choose?"

"Let's go to the first one first......"

The Seven Star Disk buckle lock on the left door wasn't very difficult, but I was stuck on the trap box on the second floor.

There's a pattern on the trap box, which looks very familiar.

Sheng Ge saw that I couldn't untie it for a long time, so he poked his head over and said, "The fire fold can't hold it up, are you okay?" ”

I didn't squeak, I've never seen the structure of this mechanism......

"Ah, look at this pattern, it's exactly the same as the birthmark on your body!"

Birthmark?

The birthmark on my back shoulder! That's right! This pattern is really exactly the same as the birthmark that Tang Zhaoyu asked me to look at in the mirror that day.

I pulled my shoulders apart and asked Shengge to take a closer look.

"Except for the size, everything else is almost identical."

Sheng Ge frowned at me again: "Ah Jin, have you ever thought that your life experience may not be so simple?" ”

It's not that simple, but I don't have time to explain it to you right now.

"It's hard to say, let's analyze it when we get out, why don't we try it over there?"

Sheng Ge looked at the fire fold, and he really couldn't hold it.

The mechanism on the door on the right is also a seven-star disk lock, which is a bit more complicated than the one on the left, and it wastes a lot of time, but fortunately, there is no second layer of mechanism on the right that is stuck.

Before Sheng Ge entered the passage on the right, he looked back at the mechanism on the left, his eyes were a little complicated and a little excited.

I urged her to hurry up, she licked her mouth and walked to the front: "You have something to hide from me, hum......"

I felt weak for a while: "Go out and explain to you, go out and explain to you......"

Soon we found the waterway on the map.

Sheng Ge went into the water to explore the way first, and I waited for her on the shore.

Soon, she returned: "There's a water outlet down there, and there's only one trap on it, and if you can open it underwater, we'll be able to swim out under the water." ”

I haven't tried blind driving, and I'm underwater again, so I don't know how long I can hold my breath.

"Can you unlock it first, then come up for ventilation and then swim out?"

"I don't know, but it's just an ordinary water outlet, there shouldn't be an undercurrent or anything, it should be okay."

The fire fold was extinguished at this time, and now the plan can only be tried first.

Sheng Ge tore the corners of my clothes and tied them together to make sure we wouldn't find each other in the dark water.

After taking a hard breath, we dived into the water, and I followed Shengge to the outlet and tried to untie it.

Thankfully, it's not complicated.

But the absolute darkness made me a little flustered, and it took a lot longer than I expected to unlock the lock.

I don't have enough gas.

Sheng Ge pulled the corner of my clothes and signaled me not to be reckless, but it was only a little bit.

I held my breath and concentrated on unlocking it, and finally unlocked it before I could hold it anymore.

In the darkness, we fumbled to open the door, trying to go up and get a breath before coming down.

We didn't want to change suddenly, and a strong current washed us out.

In my panic, I choked on water, hit a rock, and lost consciousness.
