Chapter 10: The Underground Passage of the Eastern Kingdom (Subscription Requested)

My back was soaked with sweat and I didn't dare to move. The youkai behind me were separated by a wooden plank, and the sound of beastly breathing was coming at me. I slowly lifted my sword, turned my head, and stabbed it in the back!

“?!”

Through the large hole in the plank, I saw mica that was frightened to retreat.

"Clouds, mica?"

Its eyes widened, and its ears twitched. It may have recognized me and wanted to call me, but it didn't expect me to stab me with a sword. It's good that it retreated fast enough, otherwise I would have injured it by mistake.

I helped Ah Su open the door and went in, and asked it, "Mica, why are you here?" ”

The mica shook its head and became smaller, and ran inside, I actually wanted it to take us out, but it seemed to lead me somewhere, it seemed important.

I held Asu, not knowing whether to take him with me or leave him here. Take him with you, for fear of any danger, don't leave him here, for fear that he will be taken away by monsters.

I stopped the mica and asked, "Mica!" Isn't it safe to take me somewhere?! ”

Mica nodded, and stopped where I was, waiting for me to follow it. Well, if it's safe, then I'll help Ah Su.

I followed the mica to a corner of the house, where it unbundled the fine wood from it, and there was a hole at the bottom that resembled a cellar, and from the hole the stone steps could be seen descending.

Mica jumped in first, I put Ah Su down, fortunately he was not completely unconscious, otherwise I wouldn't know how to move him who is five big and three thick, and the old flying bones.

"Asu, you're going to go by yourself."

"Hmm."

Asu's physical fitness is strong, and he uses the flying bones to support himself and stand up. I wanted to go down and hold him first, and he told me to wait.

He took out a fire fold from his bosom.

"It's black below, you can use this."

I took it and lit it, looking back at him as I went down. He looked at me and kept looking back and reminding me:

"I'm much better, you don't have to worry about me, go carefully and walk yourself."

This stone staircase was much longer than I expected, at least two or three times longer than a normal one-story staircase.

At the end of the day, I could already see a passageway, and I took the fire to look around, and it was all stone walls.

"Mica?"

Where did it go? Suddenly I don't have any cranky thoughts, it can't be fake, it can't be someone who deliberately brought us in, and then caught turtles in the urn or something.

In a dark and quiet environment, the more you think about it, the more suspicious you become.

"Phantom, the mica just now is real, right?"

"yes, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's gone, I'm a little hesitant."

Phantom encouraged me to keep walking, "It's really right, bring us here, there's definitely something important in it." ”

As soon as I was told to be relieved, there was an echo from the depths of the passage: "Mica~~~~~"

I was so shocked that I almost threw the fire fold and immediately drew my sword.

"It's not my voice, is it?"

But just now, no one seems to be shouting mica except me. Such a corridor, such a dim environment, and a small yin wind blowing, are too similar to the supernatural environment in the tomb robbery.

I remember there was a scene where there was an echo like this, and then strange things started to happen, what rice dumplings, zombies, evil ghosts......

"It's obviously a young man's voice just now, don't scare yourself."

Ah Su also chimed in, "Mica won't harm us. ”

Of course I know that, but I can't help but think about it. In the past few years, I have had a lot of practical experience, but I rarely encounter this situation, and it is inevitable to think about it.

"Let's go."

We continued to walk in the only direction of the passage, I don't know if it was getting narrower and narrower, our footsteps were getting louder and louder, even if we were light, it was useless.

"Is our movement too big?"

Sure enough, as soon as I spoke, my voice increased several degrees.

Ah Su knocked on the stone wall and made a crisp sound: "This seems to be a special material that can amplify any of our voices. ”

Why do you want to install such a special stone wall in this part of the place? There won't be any other traps, the kind that will lead to traps if you step on the wrong one.

Mica it also ran too fast and didn't take us with it.

I had a lot of worries, so I shone the fire on the stone wall to see if there was anything special. I groped for a moment, and a hand suddenly reached into my light range, and I caught a glimpse of it, and my pupils cracked and I stabbed my sword. One is because of the conditioned reflex, and the other is that I was really scared.

The man dodged my blow and kicked my fire breaker away, and it flipped in the air. The light of the fire shone a little shadow of a person, and I chased after the person and cut it, and the man's kung fu was not bad, and it seemed to be bare-handed, and I couldn't beat it even if I had a sword.

When the fire broke on the ground, the man repelled me with a slap, then caught the fire with the instep of his foot, kicked it up and held it in his hand.

I could see what he was looking like.

"Dongxi?"

Dong Yan handed me the fire: "Didn't you worship a very powerful master, how can you learn kung fu for three years and still can't do it." ”

“……”

What an unfriendly goodbye.

The mica also came out at this time, leaning against my feet. I picked it up, "You brought us here just to see him?" ”

A mica meow indicates yes.

Dong Yan said, "No wonder, just now the mica was very excited and ran over and asked me to go with it, and I couldn't stop shouting." ”

"Was that your voice just now?"

"yes."

It turned out that I really thought about it too much. "Why are you here, what is this place?"

"This is a place to take refuge in case of imminent danger."

"Are you alone here?"

"There are still a lot of citizens in there."

The fire burned and burned, and turned into flames, and Dong Yan said, "I'll take you to see it." ”

We followed, and after a while, the sound of walking was not so loud, and I couldn't help but ask him curiously:

"Why is it that our voices have been amplified just a little bit ago?"

"So that when an enemy comes in, we can be the first to know inside."

I see.

There is one more section of the road, and there is a fork in the road, which divides into three directions. We walked to the left, and it didn't take long for us to see a door. Dong Yan pushed open the door, there were torches hanging on the stone wall inside, there were about 20 men, women and children, some were resting, some were leaning on the stone wall in a daze, and some didn't know what they were busy with.

On the whole they are quiet and do not seem to be in good spirits. Seeing us was just a glance, and there was no fluctuation.

"Lord Dongyan."

A little boy ran up to him and asked, "When can we get out?" ”

Dong Yan touched his head, "It's going to be soon." ”

He took us to sit down in an open space, and Asu came to this miasma-free place, which was much better. He wanted a little water to drink, and his face was no longer pale.

I saw that the people here should be in a hurry to get out, so I asked Dongyan, "Can't you get out now?" ”

"Yes, when we built this place, we had prepared an exit, but it was blocked by landslides. There's a very poisonous miasma at the inlet, so we'll have to stay here and wait for it to disperse before we go out. ”

"Now the miasma is not fatal, at most it is a little uncomfortable, and you can go out."

Dong Yan vetoed, "No, in addition to the miasma, there are also monsters attracted by it gathered here, and now Dongguo has become a nest of monsters, and we can't escape at all if we don't clear them." ”

In that case, we'll have to get more people to help.

The mica licked her paws in my arms, then squinted and snoozed, as if she was tired. Dong Yan saw its appearance, and his face was apologetic.

"It has been helping me go out to find out what's going on outside, and it's also helped get the food and water available, and it hasn't rested for a long time."

I stroked its back to make it more comfortable. Phantom ran to mica's head to make trouble, and I grabbed it on my shoulder so that it wouldn't disturb mica's rest.

"Did you and Mica meet later, or have you been together?"

"At the beginning, I was alone, but when I went out to inquire about the situation, I was entangled by a monster, and it was mica who helped me get out of the siege, and I have stayed here since then."

"The miasma outside, how did you get out?"

"We have special gas masks." Dong Yan took a black mask and showed it to me, "This is it, but I only have this one." ”

You can make a few more and prepare them for everyone.

"You guys are from outside, do you know what happened to the young master?"

Dong Yan asked this question, didn't he know what happened to people? I looked at Asu, and he looked at me, not knowing how to speak.

How am I going to talk about this kind of thing?

At this time, the city-citizens next to them also looked over, and they also wanted to know the situation outside. Now I can't open my mouth anymore.
