What the hell is going on here?

Why is there an underground passage under the wooden house?

Chen Shi was suspicious in his heart, and understood that his previous suspicions were right.

Judging from Makuzhi's expression alone, there was nothing wrong with it, but something made Chen Shi suspicious, and because of this, he was too suspicious, so he took advantage of today, after Makuji left, he planned to come back and see what was going on for himself.

And the appearance of this underground passage also shows that his suspicions are right to some extent, and there is really something wrong with that curtain branch.

The height of the underground passage is about two meters, which is enough for people not to bend down and bow their heads to move forward, it is hard to imagine how much time and energy it takes if this underground passage is dug by the curtain branch, not to mention that it is generally necessary to dig such a deep and long underground passage?

After turning two ways, Chen Shi vaguely saw a brighter light flickering in front of him, not only did this place dig such a long passage, but also the ventilation was also good, all the way over, Chen Shi didn't feel stuffy and breathless at all.

After the last bend, Chen Shi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he saw that in the space of hundreds of square meters, it was like a basement, with many bottles and cans and sundries, and many oil lamps hanging nearby, illuminating the basement brightly.

A tall figure was buried on a high platform in the basement under the light, as if he was doing something, Chen Shi was frowning carefully, the figure raised his head and looked in the direction of Chen Shi: "Chen, are you here?" ”

"Makushi?"

As soon as the figure looked up, Chen Shi immediately saw its appearance clearly.

"You...... What to do here? ”

Chen Shi's gaze went down the arm of the curtain branch, and he saw the little girl who was not staying in the wooden house, but at this moment she was lying on the high platform with her eyes closed.

"Chen, I thought you would find you yesterday."

Makuji put down the item in his hand, which were two knives.

"What do you mean?"

Chen Shi said vigilantly.

"After all, such an obvious loophole, if you hadn't discovered that it was impossible, you must have started to suspect it a long time ago, right? Well, but it was also unexpected that I was able to endure it until now. ”

Makuji sighed.

"So, what the hell are you doing here? Who is that lying there? ”

Chen Shi was ready for battle.

"It's my daughter, what's the matter, you don't know each other?"

Makuji smiled and touched the little girl's cheek.

"Your daughter? Why lie there? ”

Chen Shihu was skeptical.

"I'm waiting."

Makuji withdrew his palm from the hand that caressed the little girl's cheek.

"Wait?"

"Yes, I'm waiting for ......"

As soon as it finished speaking, when Chen Shi was still puzzled, the little girl who was lying motionless on the high platform suddenly opened her eyes, stared at the curtain branch, and shouted "Dad"?

"Xiaoju, are you awake?"

Makuji's eyes were full of tenderness as he looked at his daughter.

"Dad, is it okay?"

Xiao Ju asked blankly.

"No, we'll have to wait a little longer."

Makuji gently touched his daughter's head: "If you're tired, then sleep a little longer." ”

"Okay, Dad......"

Xiao Ju nodded obediently.

"What the hell are you doing?"

Chen Shi vaguely felt that this situation was not very good.

It seemed that he had heard Chen Shi's voice at this time, Xiao Ju turned her head, saw Chen Shi, and said in surprise: "It's an adventurer." ”

The little girl wanted to go down, but was held down by the curtain branch: "No, Xiaoju." ”

"Daddy...... Okay, Xiaoju was wrong. Xiao Ju apologized aggrievedly, "When will the inspection end?" ”

"It's coming soon."

Makuzhi patted the little girl comfortingly, let it lie down again, and then looked at Chen Shi, "As you can see, my daughter is sick, very sick. ”

"Is your daughter sick?"

Chen Shi's eyebrows furrowed: "I'm sorry, I can't tell that I'm sick, what kind of disease is that?" So here you are, are you checking the body? ”

Chen Shi still thinks it's not quite right, is it necessary to put it here for a physical examination?

"You'll see it right away."

From beginning to end, the expression on Makuji's face hasn't changed much, and it's always been that kind of indifferent smile, as if everything is under his control.

And this sentence, what does it mean that I can see it right away?

When Chen Shi was about to think like that in his mind, the little girl lying on the high platform snorted in pain and opened her eyes: "Dad, my stomach hurts so much." ”

"Does it hurt? Don't worry, that's normal. ”

"But, Dad, it really hurts......"

Xiao Ju clutched her stomach, looking really in pain, and sweat seeped out of her forehead.

"It won't hurt for a while."

Gently caressing Xiaoju's forehead, Makuji gently comforted it.

"Oh, Dad, Xiao Ju can hold back."

Even if the pain gets more intense, it can endure it with Dad by its side.

Chen Shi didn't know what was going on, it seemed that the little girl really had something wrong with her body, but just holding back the pain like this, was there really no problem?

However, after all, the intelligent race of Makuji is different from humans in terms of physical structure, and Chen Shi did not dare to say that the diseases that can understand them will be the same as those of humans. He could only stand by vigilantly while wondering.

But the next scene suddenly made him change color, and he could no longer maintain his previous mood.

The little girl closed her eyes and endured the severe pain, but suddenly, the surface of her body began to soften, like ice cream that deformed and softened in the heat of summer, and her body softened at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.

This time, Xiao Ju, who was holding back her mouth and biting her lips off, couldn't hold back any longer, opened her eyes and sobbed: "Dad, woo...... I hurt so much, it really hurts. ”

"Xiaoju, be good, it won't hurt in a while."

In the face of such drastic changes, the curtain support did not change color, as if it had long been known that it would be like this.

After being comforted by her father, the little girl endured it again, "Daddy...... Xiao Ju can hold back...... I don't hurt. ”

"Well, that's good." Makuji continued to touch the little girl's head.

"Makushi, what is your daughter's illness?"

Chen Shi took a step back, he had been in this ghost place for a long time, and his first reaction in the face of strange things was to evacuate first.

"Chen, now it's sick, but soon, it won't be sick anymore."

Makuji sighed: "I've spent eight years here, and it's worth it, all of it, all for this time......"

As it spoke, it pulled out something resembling a syringe, filled with pitch-black liquid, and plunged it into its daughter's neck.

"Look, Xiao Ju will get better soon, and its body will be fine this time."

The curtain branch slowly poured the pitch-black liquid into the little girl's neck, which made Chen Shi look creepy.

"You ......" Chen Shi, who had just spoken, was interrupted by the curtain branch.

"Huh, how?"

Makuji's relaxed expression changed, replaced by a burst of thought.
