Chapter 443: Leaving Your Comfort Zone

With our familiarity with the route, we soon came to the edge of the safe area, and after opening the mechanism with ease, Kiko and I stood in front of the secret door and hesitated.

The eight corridors and sixteen rooms behind us are places we are relatively familiar with, and by far the safest place for us, and once we enter this secret door, we will enter a completely unfamiliar environment, and then all our advantages will be gone.

After hesitating for ten minutes, I suddenly looked at Kiko and whispered, "Why don't you wait here?" Even if someone comes, sixteen rooms will be enough for you to maneuver for a while, I will find Hao Jian and come to meet you, and then we will go to the safe house together. ”

Kiko gave me a blank look: "That's the great idea you came up with?" Sixteen rooms weren't connected, and as long as they trapped me in one of the hallways, I wouldn't want to run anywhere. ”

I pondered that seemed to be the truth, and was about to think about whether there was any other way, Kiko went straight into the dark passage with her head down, I saw that she was so refreshing and not easy to rub in, took a deep breath and calmed down, and followed behind and drilled in.

After all this time, we were already familiar with the matter of drilling the dark passage, and after a while we came to another corridor at the end of the dark passage, and by looking at the dust on the ground, we knew that no one had come, so we opened a secret passage nearby and drilled into it again.

After more than an hour, Kiko and I didn't know how many dark passages we drilled, but we never ran into anyone else, during which there were a few corridors with dust footprints, but the other party didn't go far into the dark passage, I had no way to judge the identity of the other party and didn't dare to chase rashly, so I could only choose other dark passages to move forward.

I don't know how long it took, but I suddenly felt like I had been crawling in these tunnels all my life, or maybe I was born a creature to crawl underground.

Seeing that the end of the dark passage was in front of me, I habitually turned off the flashlight, and then gestured to Kiko to stop making a sound, and after she nodded, she crawled lightly towards the exit of the dark passage, raised her hand and pressed the wooden board to push it out - didn't push it?

I felt strange and added a little more strength, but the plank still didn't move, at first I thought it was locked, but then I thought it was not quite right, this way I have drilled the dark passage not a hundred but eighty, but I have never seen the secret passage exit locked!

I wondered, I directly pushed the plank out with my shoulder, this time I finally pushed the plank away a little with all my strength, but then I regretted it, the plank at the exit was not locked but couldn't be pushed, obviously there was something blocking it outside, and the corridor here was empty and there was nothing superfluous, and the only one who could block the plank could be people!

Sure enough, as soon as I pushed the plank a little away, someone outside wondered, "Huh?" Then I heard a familiar voice shouting, "Meow! Come on! There's a rat here! It's not small! ”

Hearing that voice, the big stone in my heart fell to the ground at once, and I scolded through the plank: "Get out! You're a mouse! Which rat have you ever seen that can push you to these more than 200 pounds! "591 net

"I'm only one hundred and ninety-five! It's not yet two hundred ...... Huh? Sanshui? Hao Jian subconsciously replied outside, and only when he was almost finished did he hear my voice, he pulled me out of the dark passage as soon as he pulled the plank open: "Sanshui! I've got you! This place is so scary! ”

"Stop howling! Like a! I slapped Hao Jian and scolded angrily, saying that he was useless, but I couldn't help squeezing out a few tears in my eyes, fortunately, I wasn't afraid of him seeing it.

After raising my hand to wipe my tears to make sure he didn't see it, I turned on the flashlight I was carrying, and the surroundings instantly brightened, and I realized that Hao Jian and them were far more miserable than us.

Hao Jian's originally white and fat face was swollen in a big circle, and he didn't know what had scratched a lot of small cuts on his face, and his nose and face were swollen as if he had just finished fighting with others; Although Miao Xingren was not injured, his clothes were torn to shreds, and only a few strips of cloth were still hanging on his body, and his skinny upper body looked like he hadn't eaten for several years.

After seeing me, Hao Jian and Miao Xingren were very excited, but Miao Xingren was born with a face that couldn't wake up, so he just looked a little more energetic than before.

I looked at the two of them from top to bottom, and asked helplessly, "What are you doing?" I haven't seen you for a while, how can it be like you've just returned from the battlefield? ”

When Hao Jian heard this, he sighed: "Don't mention it!" The one we chose is a rat nest! We had just gone down and before we could see what was going on, we were pounced on by a bunch of rats and held down, good guys! At that time, you didn't see that those rats were like he had eaten chemical fertilizer, more than a foot long, and the claws were like small knives, if it weren't for Lao Tzu's quick reaction, now I don't know if it was as simple as a few bloody cuts on the face! ”

I thought he was bragging when I saw Hao Jian's spitting virtue, but I didn't expect Miao Xingren to corroborate it on the side: "This time it's really thanks to Brother Hao, those mice have been fed medicine, and they are not afraid of people at all, and their strength is still terrible, if it weren't for Brother Hao finding the mechanism in time, we would definitely be torn apart by those rats now!" ”

"Got the medicine?" My heart moved and looked at Miao Xingren: "Are you sure?" ”

Miao Xingren nodded heavily: "Sure, when I was pounced on by those rats, I smelled a strong smell of medicine, this medicine is very toxic, but before the user dies of poison, he will enter a state of ignorance, I don't know tiredness, I don't have fear, I just want to tear everything in front of me to pieces." ”

Miao Xingren's gloomy tone made my scalp tingle for a while, I have seen this medicine in TV series and movies, but I never thought that it really existed in reality, and at the same time, I also determined one thing, that is, the rat group that Hao Jian and they encountered was definitely not a coincidence, but someone deliberately ambushed there, and the only one who could control the rat group to do this kind of thing was the Ding Yi who got the inheritance of the beast control gate from nowhere.

Before, I thought that He Huai's plan was just to trap us here, so as to buy time for his own actions, but now the appearance of these rat swarms shows that He Huai is still involved in the situation in the ancient building, but I am not sure how much he is involved now.

If He Huai puts his focus elsewhere, then I just need to be a little vigilant, but if he lets us toss here on the surface, but secretly waits for an opportunity to attack us, then I have to fight with 120,000 points of spirit to guard against him, after all, He Huai is a poisonous snake, or if he doesn't make a move, it will be fatal!
