Chapter 181: Sewers

Chen Xunyi turned on the light on the miner's hat and slowly walked down the slightly dirty steps in front of him.

The slight sound of water droplets came from the pitch black interior, and the further down you went, the darker it became, except for the part illuminated by the lights, where it was so dark that it was hard to see even your arms, and the further down you went, the greater the stench.

The stairs seemed a bit long, they kept going around the wall on the right, and went down the stairs, the top of the stairs was relatively low, and the space was a bit narrow, so they could only lean forward and walk in unison.

Chen Xunyi's footsteps stepped on the ground of the sewer, and the smell of decay in the air immediately permeated them, and almost all of them moved in the same way, holding their hands to their noses.

"What a big smell!" Ahab looked around, the light on the lamp hat moving across the moss-covered red bricks.

"You can choose to wear a protective mask!" Chen Xunyi frowned, he took out the map from his inner pocket, looked at it carefully, and looked at the area of Wanghe in the north, he followed the map and pointed to it with his hand. "There!"

He waved his hand, "Follow me!" ”

In the sewers, they slowly walked in the designated direction, the soles of their feet stepping on the water and making a quaggy sound, and in the middle of each passage was a half-meter-wide depression, and the dirty waste water was flowing down the depression to other places.

The smell here is indeed a bit unbearable, and even Chen Xunyi put on a protective mask.

Except for the sound of their own footsteps, there was silence in the entire sewer, and from time to time the wind blew, and at the same time there was a sharp biting sound, which made people feel creepy for a while.

The closer you get to your destination, the louder the sound of water droplets becomes, and from time to time rats living in sewers appear at your feet, putting their forelimbs into the sewage and grabbing the garbage in the water! Then, carry out nibbling.

The fishy stench was getting heavier and heavier, and the surrounding ground was full of bloodstains, with stumps and bones.

They continued to walk towards the destination in front of them, the passages on both sides became wider and wider, Chen Xunyi roughly knew that their position was close to Wanghe, but what made him wonder was that this place was obviously much larger than other places,

But when I just looked at the drawings, the proportions of the drawings on them have been quite normal, and there is no sign of enlargement!

He stopped, took out the construction map again, put it under the hood, and looked at it carefully.

"There's only one way now, what are you looking at?" Ahab walked past him.

"Yes! Won't tell us to go back? ”

"No, it's not! I wonder what the location is here, as the sewer construction here is different from the others. ”

"Is this the destination?" Ahab stopped and looked around.

"A few hundred meters further on!" Chen Xunyi responded, leaning against the wall next to him and touching it with his hand, there were fine grains of sand on the moss.

He looked up and pointed the miner's lamp overhead, where there were obvious signs of faults, before he bent down again and groped his way across the sewage-filled ground.

"What are you doing?" Ren Mingxiao asked, visibly confused by his actions.

After touching the marks of a bulge on the ground, he was roughly sure that this place had been transformed.

"How long have you been here?" Chen Xunyi stood up and asked.

"It's been more than ten years!" Ahab responded.

"It's been more than half a year!" Gao Xiang frowned and looked at him with half-squinted eyes.

"Has this sewer been modified?"

"Nope!" Ahab shook his head.

"The structure of the buildings in this neighborhood is different from the drawings!"

"Cutting corners is the basic operation of these engineering departments!" Ahab disagreed, "There's nothing strange about that! ”

"It's not! It is the transformation of the wall and the expansion of the bottom, which should be reinforced! ”

"As far as I know, this engineering department can't do it!"

Ren Mingxiao walked up, "I've been here for a few years now!" There was a sewer cleanup the previous year, but then it was abandoned due to lack of funds! ”

That's weird! Who the hell is doing the transformation here!

"What did you find! Chick? Gao Xiang asked.

"The sewer has been artificially reinforced and transformed, and the specific may have to be analyzed by someone from the engineering department, and it is strange who will work in the sewer without moving, and what is his purpose?"

Ahab laughed, "What are you here for?" Is it to inspect the sewer works? ”

"Of course not, find out the source of the bacterial outbreak in the sewers."

"Isn't that it?"

Chen Xunyi looked quite helpless, but he couldn't say whether the two had anything to do with it, he could only take the drawings and continue to walk, he found the entrance to the sewer near the Wanghe River, the smell became stronger and stronger, the number of flies, mice and cockroaches increased sharply, and there were water droplets on the top of the roof, dripping on the sewage on the ground, as if in the rain.

Ren Mingxiao was more cautious, the surrounding environment was quite terrible for a woman, dirty, foul-smelling, and those creatures living in sewage and garbage.

The depression in the middle of the passage is getting bigger and bigger, and there is more and more garbage on both sides!

The surrounding walls were full of water vapor, and the air here was mixed with the smell of blood, Chen Xunyi leaned against the wall and slowly walked forward.

"Haven't you arrived yet?" Gao Xiang asked.

"It's here!" Chen Xunyi used the miner's lamp to shine forward, and in the darkness ahead, there were four round glass windows side by side.

It took a lot of effort to get to the location of the glass window.

Ahab stepped forward and touched the window, wiping the grey dirt away from the glass, and the light shone through the glass.

"Here!" His gaze looked out, "It looks like it's near the storehouse!" ”

"Hmm!" Chen Xunyi squatted down, took out the glass bottle, filled half a bottle of water from the dented place, he wiped the outside of the glass bottle with his hand, and put it in front of him, to take it to test, maybe the bacterial outbreak is here!

"Here!" Gao Xiang waved at them from the opposite wall, and behind what appeared to be a passage where he stood.

"There's something in there!"

"What?" Chen Xunyi put the glass bottle back in his pocket, took a few steps back, ran away, and then jumped through the depression.

"Wait a minute!" Ren Mingxiao stood there, "It's too wide here, I can't jump over!" ”

"Wait a minute!" Chen Xunyi said, "I'll go and see, I'll be back soon!" He and Ahab went up and said, "What did you find?" ”

"This place is weird!" Gao Xiang frowned and pointed to the darkness behind him.
