Chapter 15: Rotting Bones Underground

"The newspaper said that when the sun was scorching at noon, the air would be more frequent. Since the old man liked it, I talked to him a little longer to see if I could hear the sound of the air with my own ears. ”

After making up his mind, Su Xian settled down and chatted with the old man for a while.

After about a cup of tea, a voice suddenly came from the ground!

Su Xian suddenly stopped speaking and looked down at his feet.

There was a drain to the sewer at his feet, and the hollow sound of a cry in the hole came from the drain.

He listened closely, and felt that the voice was hoarse and unpleasant, vibrating his eardrums, which seemed to be mixed with extreme emotions, and then the sound became louder and louder, and even the ground under his feet shook slightly.

"Look, it's a demon." The old man smirked, "I said earlier, how can people make such a sound. ”

Su Xian lowered his eyes and asked, "Since you know that there is danger hidden underground, why don't you leave here?" ”

The old man didn't care: "Leave? Where can you go if you leave? I was born here, my home is here, and even if I want to go, I can go anywhere. ”

Su Xian was silent for a while, and then asked, "Old man, do you know where to go and enter the sewer?" ”

The old man nodded, "Follow me." ”

……

There are many underground pipes under the city of Brut that have an exit to the surface every other section.

The square drain at Su Xian's feet is one of them.

However, the entrance is too small, and even if the lid is removed, it will be difficult to enter.

And he had no interest in getting dirt all over his body.

After a few minutes, the old man led him to a river where the water was shallow, not to his heels at most, and along the river there was an arched entrance.

The old man pointed to the entrance and said, "From there, there is the underground pipe of the city." Good luck. ”

Su Xian thanked him, and then walked down the stone steps and walked along the edge of the waterway towards the entrance.

The underground pipes of Brut City are usually inhabited by homeless people with no financial income, but this Gergett 8th Street is located on the edge of the College District, and the homeless people in the neighborhood have been driven away, so it is relatively quiet.

Of course, both underground pipelines in that area...... It's all dirty!

Su Xian covered his nose and entered it, the light gradually dimmed, the stench became stronger and stronger, and the pipe hanging on the wall was like a hideous snake, winding into the depths.

"The direction of Gergett Eighth Street is on this side, follow this passage to the right-hand side, and you should be able to reach the bottom of it in no time."

The sense of smell gradually fatigues, the vision gradually adapts, and the vigilance gradually increases.

Su Xian stretched out his hand, the emblem flashed between his eyebrows, and "Luo ●'s Card Album" appeared out of thin air and fell into his hand.

"I just heard that empty sound, it doesn't look like someone is pretending to be a ghost, it's probably that there are really extraordinary creatures hiding underground."

"The roar is frequent when the sun is scorching, probably because the temperature is higher and the sun is more intense during this time......

"Whether it's a wail of pain or a roar of excitement, only God knows."

The sewers are well connected, and it's easy to get lost, but as long as you look for the right direction, you can still get through.

It's just that the farther you go, the quieter it becomes, and the sound of water splashing down pierces your ears like nails, causing your brain to react to stress.

Then, the footsteps became more and more distinct, as if you were the only one left in the whole world, walking alone in the darkness, gradually swallowed by death.

"Squeak squeak—"

A swarm of rats suddenly escaped from the darkness, followed by tusked bats, centipedes and moths.

Su Xian crossed his hands and blocked the front.

Neither the rat nor the bat attacked him, but just scurried past him.

After a while, all the sewer creatures were gone, leaving only the remnants of their transit.

Su Xian took a slight breath and continued to walk forward.

However, at this time, not only the "nose ring of the Minotaur" had been worn by him on his index finger, but even the "reverse hanger" had been pinched in his hand.

The 24-hour CD has passed, and the "Reversed Hanging Man" can be reactivated.

Keep moving.

No more rats and insects appeared, and the underground world returned to a dead silence.

But the silence didn't last long.

The sound of beastly breathing came into my ears as if it had come out of nowhere.

Su Xian stopped abruptly and looked at the darkness with a solemn gaze.

The "Luo ●'s Card Album" on the left hand automatically turns the page, and the pointer-shaped bookmark swings wildly, which is the reaction to the discovery of a rare item!

Two turquoise flames emerged from the darkness, swaying towards him.

He held up the card album and hung it above his head, then sank down and took a grappling pose, staring at the two ghostly fires with a cautious gaze.

The ghostly fire approached, and the sound of breathing was mixed with the muffled roar of the beast.

A wild dog the size of a calf poked half of its head out of the darkness.

The wild dog's skull was clearly distorted, its outline was unusually ugly, and its two eyes, one large and one small, emitted green light.

It was still coming out of the darkness, and the murky hara was flowing from the edge of the elongated corner of the mouth, mixed with a small amount of blood.

Obviously, this is no longer a normal creature.

Su Xian swallowed his saliva slightly, fighting with people, he can talk about skills, fighting with beasts, only biting, which is even more cruel.

But he didn't back down.

If he couldn't even deal with a mutated wild dog, he could have stretched his neck and waited for someone to bring the knife up.

The head is followed by the neck, and behind the neck is half the body.

The wild dog gradually emerged from the darkness, and its dirty, messy fur stood out even more.

Su Xian couldn't help but lower his center of gravity, he now regretted that he didn't find a weapon to carry first, even if it was a dagger.

But then, the front half of the wild dog suddenly collapsed, and it barked as if it was about to take its last breath, and the back half of its body was lifted out of the darkness.

Su Xian's scalp suddenly tingled and he shivered.

The wild dog, starting from its forelimbs, was left with only a few pieces of broken skin and white bones.

A part of the blood-drenched internal organs rested on the white bones, the cyan intestines dragged on the ground, and the back half was even more ......!

It was as if some huge beast had bitten it from behind and ripped off the back half of its body and the belt bones, leaving only the front half of its body that had escaped by chance.

But it was only in the state of the front half of the body, which was also supported for so long, that it swallowed its last breath!

Su Xian gasped, his throat as if it was blocked.

In the darkness behind the wild dog, there was a monster, perhaps as the old man said...... Demon.
