Chapter IV: Underground Prisons
Luo Cheng followed Wu Gang to the northwest corner of the Sita tribe. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The ground here is obviously a little different, and it is a strange kind of land mixed with copper and iron filings.
Above it was a round, ancient stone building, cracked like a spider's web, with many corners missing.
As if a long time had passed, this was a different building from all the houses of the Sita - the underground prison.
There were two guards guarding the door, and when they saw the token in Wu Gang's hand, they opened the heavy stone door and let the two enter.
As soon as the two entered, the stone gate behind them was closed, and only the torches on the walls on both sides illuminated the road ahead.
The two of them followed the torches, and after walking for a while, they swirled down the stone staircase, and walked down about a hundred steps into a bright space.
The space was a long, narrow passageway, with more than a dozen cells on each side facing forward, and a group of guards patrolling back and forth.
At the top of this passage is a heavy stone door, interspersed with iron chains on the handles, and nailed to the ground and walls with huge iron nails.
Wu Gang whispered a few words to a man who seemed to be the head of the guard, and the man gave Luo Cheng a strange look and asked the guard to open the stone door.
The stone door is not easy to open, and it requires several people to pull out the nails nailed to the floor and walls, and then untie the chains that are wrapped around the doorknob.
The guards here were tall, but it probably took more than ten minutes to push the door open. Wu Gang said hello to the head of the guard, and then led Luo Cheng forward through the stone gate.
Behind the stone gate, there was a circle of stone stairs that rotated down, and the two walked more than a hundred steps to the second floor.
At the entrance of this space are two guards, about one meter and eight meters tall, wearing iron armor, even covering their faces, only showing their eyes and nose, standing like guns.
Behind the same long passage and dozens of cells, each with a guard in iron armor standing at the door.
Luo Cheng noticed that they were obviously different from the guards on the previous floor, they appeared stronger, more disciplined, and the entire space was filled with a serious and quiet atmosphere.
Seeing the two coming, the two guards at the door immediately blocked the iron guns in their hands in front of the two.
Wu Gang didn't speak, just respectfully handed the token in his hand to one of the guards.
The guard showed the token to a man who looked like a commander before letting the two pass through the cell door.
As I passed through this row of cell doors, the air seemed to suddenly become viscous, and not only did my breathing feel a little uncomfortable, but even my steps became heavy.
He didn't know what was going on, and he had a gut feeling that there must be a secret behind these cell doors.
He saw that Wu Gang had a somewhat serious and gloomy face when he stepped into the cell area, and it seemed that he was not alone in this feeling.
"Who are the people locked up here?" Luo Cheng couldn't help but ask.
Hearing Luo Cheng speak, Wu Gang's face changed obviously, he looked very nervous, and he didn't answer Luo Cheng's words, he buried his head and accelerated his pace, Luo Cheng was puzzled and could only follow closely.
Walking out of this cell area, I was confronted by a row of spiral stairs, the same as when I first entered the underground cell. At this time, Wu Gang's face was a little better.
He looked back at the cell area and sighed, glared at Luo Cheng angrily and said, "Little guy be honest, he was almost killed by you!" ”
Kill? If you only say one word, you will be killed? Luo Cheng was a little puzzled, but Wu Gang didn't talk to his inquiries anymore, only warned him to keep his mouth shut when he encountered the cell area, and it was best not to even make a sound of breathing, and then walked down the stairs again.
Following Wu Gang down, Luo Cheng muttered in his heart, there should be dozens of cells on the first floor, but there are no empty ones? Why do you have to go down.
With questions, Luo Cheng followed Wu Gang to the third floor, which was also a row of cells, the structure was exactly the same as the previous floor, but there were obviously more guards than the upper floor.
On this level, Wu Gang still did not stop, and continued to go down.
Eighteen floors down, a huge stone door stood in front of the two of them.
This stone gate is about five meters high, very tall, and there is an octagonal pagoda carved in the middle, a total of eight floors, and at the top there are auspicious clouds floating and sweeping.
There seem to be many demon beasts engraved in the blank space on both sides of the tower, and there are some words, but they are very fine.
Just as Luo Cheng wanted to take a closer look, a person wearing a black cloak and hiding his entire body in a spacious coat floated down from the void, like a ghost.
"What are you doing here?" His voice felt as if it had been sandpapered, with a grainy texture like sand.
Seeing the person coming, Wu Gang didn't dare to be careless, and bowed respectfully and said, "I am on the order of Elder Wu to bring this person to your Excellency." ”
"It's been so long to send one, and it's already a little impatient to wait! Tell Wu Lianshan and let him keep the agreement, otherwise he won't be able to get what he wants! ”
Wulian Mountain actually has an agreement with this person! Luo Cheng was taken aback, it seemed that he had sent himself to the underground prison and did not intend to let himself out alive, thinking of his secret words to Wu Gang before, Luo Cheng was 100% sure that he had arranged something unfavorable to him.
While the two were still talking, Luo Cheng didn't want to turn around and run away.
Before he could take a few steps, a powerful suction force came, and his body couldn't help but fly to the mysterious man's hand.
At this moment of crisis, Luo Cheng remembered the "Dementor Sword" and immediately summoned it, but strangely found that the "Dementor Sword" did not listen to the call and could not summon it, and the angry Luo Cheng could only kick his hands and feet desperately.
"Boy, don't bother, in the hands of the Demon Prison Army's Ghost Hand, no one can run away! It's just that you are too talented, loved by the patriarch, and blocked the future of our little master. If you die in the Endless Forest before, your body can still become a ghoul and your soul can be reincarnated. You've survived, and you're back, and you deserve the pain of having your bones lost and your soul devoured......"
Wu Gang snorted at Luo Cheng, and before he finished speaking, the left side of his face instantly deflated, and the whole person flew up and fell out a few meters away.
The voice of the ghost hand came from Luo Cheng's ears: "You are just an errand runner, there are too many words, get out!" ”
Wu Gang stood up and didn't dare to reply, so he staggered and crawled back.
The ghost hand didn't care about Wu Gang at all, grabbed Luo Cheng and walked to the left of the huge stone door, where there was a small stone door that was one person high, and he didn't know where he moved, the door opened suddenly, and he didn't care about Luo Cheng's call sign, and threw it directly in.
Luo Cheng ran to the door and hammered the door with his hand for a long time, his hands were hammered, and the stone gate only made a slight muffled sound, it seems that this stone gate is also very heavy.
Seeing that no one paid attention to the knock on the door, Luo Cheng could only lean his body against the stone door, highly concentrated, and scan the inside of this cell. There was no fire in this stone prison, and he felt as if he was blind.
He tried to walk with his back against the wall, tentatively walking to one side with his hands and feet, and turned around when he came across the corner.
After touching two walls and two corners, Luo Cheng found a circular hole in the middle of the third wall.
This circular hole is as big as a barrel, and the inside is very smooth, Luo Cheng put his head in it and tried it, but it was past an adult. He muttered to himself: How could there be an exit in this cell?
Just as he was thinking about whether to go through it, he suddenly heard a voice from the other side of the hole.
The voice was low, slow, long, like the breathing of a creature while it was asleep. As the cold wind came from the entrance of the cave, it echoed in the empty cell, as if it came from the nine underground areas, revealing a chilling ghost.
Luo Cheng's heart was so steep that he lifted it, his heartbeat rate increased rapidly, like a rapid drum beating, and his breathing became rapid.
What's behind this circular opening? Luo Cheng's spirit was highly tense, but at the same time mixed with curious excitement.
Suddenly, the breath disappeared, as if it had never existed. Luo Cheng pricked up his ears and listened carefully at the entrance of the cave, not only the sound of breathing, but also the sound of the air flow.
Just when Luo Cheng was puzzled, a roar came from the other side of the cave, accompanied by a strong adsorption force, like a sideways hurricane. Luo Cheng was caught off guard, and the whole person was sucked into the hole by this suction.
