Text Act II: The Six Paths of Demon Beings_Chapter 74: The Secret Words of the Bamboo Forest
In the dim sewer, five people walked in a row, the corpse demon old man walked in the front, and Shangguan Yuanji walked in the back, guarding behind. Although it is not a narrow place, with the size of the Rhine, you still need to bend down and bow your head to move forward.
"I really didn't expect to meet my predecessor here, the old man of the corpse demon." Rhein walked behind the corpse demon old man with his head down, leaning against the moldy wall.
"Yes, if it weren't for the fact that I want to help Ziyan save people now, I wouldn't be mixed with a wicked person like you." The old man of the corpse demon responded coldly.
"That's right, I'm a wicked person, but there are some things that only wicked people can do with their hearts." Rhine smiled secretly, "At the critical moment, we still have to form an alliance, old man, I really didn't expect Luo Yu to come." ”
The old man stepped on the water, "Maybe." ”
The underground pipeline is not as Dongfang Ziyan imagined, it is not a simple pipe, when Dongfang Ziyan learned that there was an underground mechanical tram here, he had already realized that this seemed to be an underground port deep underground.
Sure enough, as Dongfang Ziyan expected, after walking along the pipeline for nearly a quarter of an hour, they saw an iron door, and the old man of the corpse demon walked to the iron gate, touched the thick iron gate with carved patterns with his right hand, and turned around and said, "Here it is, the mechanical tram is a tool for crossing the snowy region, and the lane is only one section underground, as you can see, this was once an underground port." Just behind this gate, there is a secret passage through the harbor to infiltrate the Tower of Babel. ”
"How can there be such a thing as a port underground? If there is a port, there should be a ship. Rhine said.
"The dry docks, this is the place where the goods are transported by rail, and the goods are transported here by mechanical trams, and then the underground trade is carried out." Dongfang Ziyan said quietly.
"If that's the case, it's not safe here." Rhine looked carefully at the iron door, the iron door was five meters high and three meters wide, and after careful groping and knocking, he could feel that the thickness of this door could be close to thirty centimeters, it was a fairly strong explosion-proof door, and the door was painted with a big cross.
"Since it's an abandoned underground port in the basin, don't they have any protection here? Even if it is abandoned, will they leave this hidden danger behind? Shangguan Yuanji stared coldly at the corpse demon old man.
"Did I mention that this underground port was once built in a watershed?" The old man said,
The old man turned around, "This underground pipeline and port used to belong to a mysterious organization, when I came to the river basin, I was already dying, and I was rescued by a group of people, they belong to an organization, this mysterious organization is an extremist organization engaged in underground trade, from beginning to end I didn't get a little information from their mouths, I didn't even know the name of the organization, after my injuries were healed, I was sent out, and then I couldn't survive in the snowy region, so I came back with the seal traces I secretly left, but... As he spoke, he tapped the cane in his hand twice on the door, and the door made a heavy muffled sound, and he slowly pushed it open.
The old man walked in with vigorous steps, and with a wave of his right hand, he lit the lamp in the darkness, and what appeared in front of everyone was indeed a dock-like place, where boxes were piled up everywhere.
"Someone ......" Shangguan Yuanji walked up, pointed his sword against a black shadow sitting on the ground, and suddenly found that it was a dried corpse, the dried corpse should have been dead for decades, the clothes on the body were rotten, and many corpses were found around one after another.
Dongfang Ziyan was afraid that Yan Wei would be afraid, grabbed her hand, and whispered, "Don't be afraid." ”
"What's going on? You make it clear. Rhine asked.
"It's a tragedy, I came on my own circuit, trying to find these people, but I saw corpses all over the ground, there were no living people, I checked, everyone was killed in battle, but there were no other people's bodies, I think it was infighting, and then I waited on the tram outside the door for months, no one came, and I lived here, and no one knew what happened here except me." The old man groaned, as if recalling horrific memories.
"Until this matter is clarified, it would be too presumptuous to rush in." Ziyan said.
"We have no choice, even if all this is not true, I have to go, Yue'er is still in danger, he must be frightened!" Shangguan Yuanji clenched his fists.
Dongfang Ziyan looked at Shangguan Yuanji, his eyes sank.
"Brother Yuanji is right, but we should have a careful plan." Yan Wei said suddenly.
