Chapter 62: The Bloody Cleansing of the Prefecture Yamen (5)
As soon as Chu Xiaofeng jumped into the deep hole, the door valve above his head quickly closed. He frowned, and secretly said that it was not good, and the dark space was full of unknown dangers. He had just groped his way forward a few steps before he crashed into the smooth stone wall. Chu Xiaofeng hurriedly took off his coat, took out the fire fold from his arms, and quickly set the clothes on fire.
The endless darkness was instantly dispelled by the light, and Chu Xiaofeng raised his head and scanned the surroundings, hoping to see the direction of the exit. I saw that in front of me was a long corridor, less than three meters wide on both sides, and the walls were polished very flat and smooth as a mirror. Fortunately, there were torches every other foot on the wall. Chu Xiaofeng took off a torch and lit it before his clothes were about to burn out.
Looking up at the top of his head, there were all black glazed tiles, there was no gap, and he couldn't tell where he jumped from just now. Sighing weakly, he could only walk forward, hoping to find an exit.
After walking for about a few hours, Chu Xiaofeng didn't know how many torches he had changed, and he began to feel a little hungry in his stomach. He sat on the ground with his head down, and stood the torch beside him. The corridors here are so wide that they seem to never end. Along the way, several strange towers left a deep impression on Chu Xiaofeng, but no matter how he fiddled, he didn't find the imaginary mechanism.
"Gollum", "Gollum", Chu Xiaofeng slapped his unangry stomach with his hand, he was hungry so soon, it was really useless! He can only hope now that Yu Wenlang can come to save him. The place is too big to walk out of.
"Gollum" "Gollum"
Chu Xiaofeng just wanted to pat his stomach, but suddenly his expression froze, this sound was not made by him. He hurriedly pressed his ear to the wall, listening carefully to the movement around him.
"Gollum", "Gollum"
Strange and strange sounds kept coming from the other side of the wall, and Chu Xiaofeng suddenly felt that his hair stood on end and his scalp was numb. This strange sound is very similar to the sound of a person's belly when he is hungry, but it is different. It's as if something is chewing raw meat.
Chu Xiaofeng stood up and gathered all the torches near both sides, and suddenly the entire corridor was as bright as day. He looked at the wall to himself, looking for a secret door to enter. But he touched every wall tile, and still found nothing.
"Isn't there a door here at all? Didn't those voices come from here? Chu Xiaofeng frowned and muttered in his heart. He was a little frustrated, he originally thought that he had found the exit, but he didn't expect to be overjoyed. He threw the torch in his hand hard, and the torch made an arc, illuminating the opposite wall, and saw a gray wall tile inlaid in the middle, which was very obvious.
"So here!" Chu Xiaofeng picked up a torch from the ground and walked in front of the gray wall brick, his heart was full of excitement and excitement, maybe he could get out of danger after pressing his hand lightly.
calmed down his excitement, Chu Xiaofeng gently pressed his hand down, and as the wall tiles continued to enter, he heard the sound of "creaking" and "creaking" behind him, and he was overjoyed, it seemed that he had guessed correctly this time. When I turned around, I saw a narrow doorway behind me, because the doorway was very small, it could only accommodate one person in and out, and the light from the outside could not shine at all, and it was dark inside.
"Gollum", "Gollum"
As the door opened, the strange sound became louder and louder, Chu Xiaofeng's heart sank, and he himself understood that this was definitely not an exit. Holding two torches, Chu Xiaofeng cautiously put his head in, in the dim environment, a row of dark kitchen knives was arranged in a row, and several baskets were placed horizontally and vertically at the door, which were full of red mushrooms, as big as a bowl.
Chu Xiaofeng stuck the torch in the doorway, reached out to pick up a mushroom, and immediately frowned. These mushrooms were slippery and greasy, as if they had something smeared on them, and a faint smell of blood came, which made Chu Xiaofeng even more puzzled. How can there be so many strange mushrooms here? What are these mushrooms for?
He moved the basket in the doorway to both sides and continued his way inside. Turning a corner, an iron door appeared in front of it, and the strange sound of "grunt" and "grunt" came from this iron gate. On the iron door, a thin iron chain hangs from the door, and a copper lock is locked on the iron chain.
With a "bang", Chu Xiaofeng kicked the iron door open, and suddenly an unpleasant fishy smell, mixed with dust, rushed towards Chu Xiaofeng. Chu Xiaofeng suddenly entered such a harsh environment, and he almost didn't throw up. He retched a few times, forced himself to hold his breath, and tried to look up, but his mouth grew and he retreated in horror. Because, he saw hell on earth!
The eyes were blood-red and devastated. In a three-zhang long blood pool, there are all kinds of corpses floating, countless maggots crawl densely on the corpses, making strange cries of "grunt" and "grunt", on both sides of the blood pool, overgrown with blood-red mushrooms, some mushrooms have matured, and some mushrooms have just broken the ground.
Chu Xiaofeng was so frightened that he hurriedly closed the iron door, he thought that he had already regarded life as a mustard, but he didn't expect that this place would be even more miserable! He steadied himself, reopened the iron door, and slowly walked inside, enduring the pungent stench and nausea. Step by step, go deeper.
"Wow", "Wow"
At the same time that Chu Xiaofeng continued to go deeper, the sound of iron chains hitting the ground suddenly came out, and in the darkness in the distance, a vague figure slowly walked towards him, shaking and shaking, showing extreme difficulty. Chu Xiaofeng was so shocked that he was covered in cold sweat, he hurriedly took a step back and scolded loudly: "Who are you!" ”
The figure did not reply, nor did it stop, but continued to walk towards him. Chu Xiaofeng was shocked in his heart, and said secretly, could it be a ghost? Although he doesn't believe in the theory of strange forces and chaos, this situation and this scene can't help but make people think about it.
"Ahem" A slight cough came, and the figure stopped, he seemed to be very afraid of the fire, and stood not far from Chu Xiaofeng, not daring to approach.
"Are you a human or a ghost?" Chu Xiaofeng heard a slight cough, and his heart was settled, but he still asked sharply.
"Is it a human or a ghost? Haha, I'm a human or a ghost! The man said to himself, as if he were crazy, he hugged his head and whispered, pulling the chains on his body "rattle".
"What are you doing here?" Seeing this, Chu Xiaofeng asked in a low voice. He raised the torch forward, even more shocked. Not far from him, a man with tousled hair and covered in blood was sitting on the ground, his body was crawling with maggots, and a thick iron chain on his collarbone passed through his body, and he did not know where it extended. What's even more strange is that he actually has three arms, but the arm on his chest hangs down weakly, pale and bloodless, as if someone pressed it hard.
Seeing that the strange man was silent for a long time, Chu Xiaofeng sighed, turned around and was about to leave, he didn't have the courage to go inside again, in case he encountered something weird again, he was afraid that he would collapse on the spot.
"Sir, please wait a minute." Just when Chu Xiaofeng was about to turn around and leave, a weak voice came from behind him, followed by the sound of chains dragging and dragging, Chu Xiaofeng felt a hair in his heart, and hurriedly turned around. I saw a rickety figure slowly walking towards him, and the figure limped and walked very slowly.
