Chapter 66: The Secret Passage
Instead, he looked at me and said:
"You saw it yourself, right? Since it can disappear from this house, it means that there must be something strange in it, and we can do it too! ”
I looked at Xu Fei with a surprised face, and there were words in my mouth:
"You're crazy..."
Xu Fei didn't pay attention to my words, and began to walk into the inner room by himself.
Seeing him walk in, I didn't follow, and this time I didn't trust him anymore, after all, this kind of behavior can be said to be very risky, but also very irresponsible.
At this moment, the sky is already dark, and the time we can stay here is getting shorter and shorter, if we don't leave here for another hour, the old man will probably sue the two of us if he finds out about the appearance of this place after he comes over, and we who find out the strange behavior of this ghost village are afraid that the end will not be much better.
Xu Fei walked in alone, before him, it was the monster who walked in, and I couldn't help but start worrying about his safety.
I wondered countless times if I should go in and have a look. But he finally stopped.
"Xu Fei?"
I had been waiting outside, and I stopped looking for the secret passage, and suddenly I felt that something was wrong, and the sound inside suddenly disappeared.
I remember that Xu Fei could still hear the sound of non-stop footsteps walking around in it before, but now there is silence inside, as if I am the only one in the whole room.
I tentatively called Xu Fei's name, but unfortunately, after about ten minutes, I didn't hear the echo I wanted, could it be that something happened to him?
I moved my steps, but I thought about it. Could it be that I just thought too much, Xu Fei just didn't reply to me.
"Xu Fei? Can you hear me? Reply to me. ”
To make sure, I shouted inside again, and the silence didn't seem to be any louder than my voice.
To go in or not to go in? Forget it, even if you can run away, it's not interesting, it's just a person spinning in this mountain.
Thinking like this, I immediately felt a step in my heart and walked in.
At this time, although the sun outside has not yet come out, it is already blue, shining in through the dilapidated window, although it is a little darker, but you can still see everything in the room.
It's just that what I didn't expect was that the things inside were empty, and the monster that came in before was nowhere to be seen, could it be that he ran away?
What about Xu Fei? Where did he go? Should he...
Thinking like this in his heart, he was already about to feel that Xu Fei had been murdered.
Damn, I should have stopped him, why didn't I do it?
While I was still in my own guilt, all of a sudden, a dark shadow suddenly rose from the open coffin:
"What's wrong? Come on, I've found something here! ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the coffin at his feet.
"Ah——!h
I was taken aback by this sudden situation, and I almost ran away without being scared, but fortunately I resisted my primal impulse and looked at it, it was Xu Fei!
I immediately ran over and said with a sigh of relief:
"What are you doing? I've been calling you here for so long, why don't you reply to me? ”
I said to Xu Fei angrily, just now I almost felt desperate because I was almost guilty for not stopping him, but now she suddenly came out to scare me.
"I found something, look!"
Xu Fei didn't seem to take my words seriously, but was very confident in his so-called discovery, but what shocked me was that he was lying in a coffin like that!
This person, doesn't he have any taboos?
Suddenly I have a new understanding of him, is this still the Xu Fei I know?
But I didn't hesitate any longer, and walked up to him through the hallway, the coffin had almost scattered because of the monster, and its original appearance had been stained with some blood and dirt more like dirt.
When I got closer, I found that there was something else inside, and there was a big hole under Xu Fei's feet, and it was pitch black and I didn't know where to go.
"What is this?"
Looking at this strange big hole, I couldn't help but be very surprised, I didn't expect that this coffin was actually placed here for cover, and no one would want to carry the ordinary coffin, so in this way, the secret passage is the best cover, no one would think of it, and no one would find out.
Perfect!
"I guess that thing went in here, and the sound he made just now should have been opened by him."
Hearing Xu Fei think like this, does that thing still have intelligence? If that's the case, it seems that you can figure it out why you didn't kill me and Xu Fei just now.
It's just that before I could continue to speak, Xu Fei pointed to me as if he knew what I was thinking, and said:
"Look at you here, it's obvious that the monster smashed it open, it is estimated that he originally planned to hide back in the coffin, but he didn't expect to fall into it by mistake."
Xu Fei pointed to the edge of the hole, and the fragments everywhere were obviously not opened normally, but something was shattered from the outside, which explained why there was a loud noise like that before.
"Maverick ——!"
Suddenly, there was a miserable shout from the yard, and the voice seemed to be the old man, and it seemed that he should have found the uncle who died tragically in the yard.
"What should I do?"
I asked eagerly, if that old man saw me and Xu Fei here, wouldn't he just take us down?
Although the uncle is dead, he will definitely be the first to suspect us, but now there are only two people, Xu Fei and me, he may insist that it is me and Xu Fei who have been acting and directing themselves, so it is absolutely impossible for this to happen, in short, he can't find out that we are here no matter what
"Quick, hide!"
I immediately began to walk around the small room like an ant on a hot pan, trying to find one to come out.
"What are you doing?"
Xu Fei looked at this and was puzzled, I held back my urgency, and shouted in a low and hoarse voice:
"Of course it's to find a place to hide!"
"Isn't that what this is?"
Xu Fei looked at his feet and said with a slight smile.
"Are you crazy? You're not really crazy, are you? That monster also went in just now, and if we go in, we won't be torn into a few pieces by him? ”
I couldn't believe his crazy proposal, and I began to refute it without saying a word.
"Don't worry, I poked my head down and looked at it for a while, this place is not what you think, there are several roads in it, we won't encounter it."
At this time, Xu Fei's words were still full of confidence, and I don't know where he learned his blind confidence, but at the moment I had no other choice, because the old man's crutch was constantly approaching, and he was almost at the door.
"Come on, it's too late."
Xu Fei handed me a hand and pulled me to it, I didn't have time to hesitate to observe Xu Fei alone, so I jumped down first, and half of the old man's crutches almost poked in, so I quickly bent down and jumped in.
Unexpectedly, I thought I would be safe after dawn, but at this moment I was forced to hide in this dim secret passage, and the most important thing is that there may be a man-eating monster inside.
I don't know when, I'm afraid we'll meet it.
"Knock!"
The sound of the old man's crutches is still approaching, Xu Fei and I have successfully dodged in at the moment, and when we heard the sound of the old man's crutches, we couldn't help but quietly take two steps back, in case something happened, it would be troublesome.
"This, this can't be, that thing got out?"
The old man's voice was full of disbelief as if he had seen a ghost.
After saying that, he heard the sound of crutches and began to hurry away from here, and he didn't know where he went, the only thing he knew was that he was not in this house.
"Shall we go out?"
Hearing that the old man was walking away, I asked Xu Fei in a tentative whisper.
"I don't think we should go out, it's not certain whether the old man here is really going far or not, I think we should stay a little longer."
"And..."
Xu Fei wanted to speak and stopped, and I asked:
"And what?"
"And we've all come down yet, why don't we come and see what secrets this Yin Ghost Village is hiding?"
Obviously, Xu Fei was not afraid at all, and listening to his tone, there was even a little excitement in it.
I didn't refute it, I didn't agree, because at the moment I was also on the verge of contradiction.
But Xu Fei didn't care about this, and took the lead alone.
The inside of this tunnel is not particularly dim, and there are lights lit every few steps, and it seems that it has been prepared for a long time, otherwise there would be no such scene, and it is impossible to complete such a project by one person.
"I didn't expect there to be such a secret passage here!"
I couldn't believe it all the way, and Xu Fei agreed with me:
"Yes, if you hadn't said that I wouldn't have thought of it, and you see the things here, whether it is the lights or the road, it has been a little old, and the dense passages inside must not have been made by one person, it should have been dug up by the people of the village here."
"But what are they digging this thing for? If you don't fight, why make such a time-consuming and laborious thing, it's better to go to the land and get a few more stones of grain? ”
I also wondered, why did the people in the village have to come up with this thing?
But it is strange why such an uncle is allowed to guard this place, and the whole village does not seem to want to see him.
The logic before and after this is very contradictory, what is the reason, I am afraid the answer lies in this secret passage.
