Chapter 12: The Secret of the Dungeon

Successfully exited the first door, a narrow and dark passageway, and a staircase appeared in front of it, and at the end of the staircase did Summer Night knew that there was a sentry box, where Summer Night had registered when she had just been brought in. And this is the final exit of the entire prison, and there must be jailers on duty around the clock.

Xia Ye turned around and pointed to the male prisoner, the man immediately understood what she meant, and after a little thought, his mouth began to make a 'silky' sound, which made people get goosebumps, and saw that the black snake with a white background wrapped around his hand immediately writhed, dazzlingly, crossed a grid of steps and swam up, and soon disappeared from sight.

"Ahh Snake! ”

A man's exclamation erupted from the sentry box above.

"Poisonous!"

"Don't come, don't come!"

"Let's go." The male prisoner shook his head towards the summer night, and the two of them lowered their bodies and climbed the stairs.

Sure enough, there was a mess in the sentry box, and someone suddenly rushed out and hit the two of them.

"What people!" He instinctively shouted, and the male prisoner stared at him, and when he took a sharp breath and was about to shout, the male prisoner pounced on him, grabbed him by the throat, and the two of them rolled to the ground and scuffled.

Seeing that there were two jailers in the sentry box who were busy fighting with the black-striped snake, she hurried to open the lock on the door.

Soon the door opened, and she looked back to see that the male prisoner was still entangled by the jailer, and thought that it was thanks to him that she could not cross the river and tear down the bridge, so she went up and helped him kick the jailer a few times, and finally let him escape.

The two hurriedly ran away, and the jailer's panicked shouts came from behind them: "Prisoner escaped, prisoner escapedβ€”"

Xia Ye didn't look back, just ran desperately, ran desperately, but after all, she had just been beaten badly, and her body was very weak, and she didn't run far before she felt a splitting pain in her chest, and her legs seemed to be filled with lead.

The sound of chasing behind her was getting closer and closer, she staggered and barely walked a few steps, finally knelt on the ground, turned her head, and several yacha, who were armed with large knives and torches, rushed towards her with a shout, as if they would run in front of her in the blink of an eye, and Xia Ye couldn't help but close her eyes.

Suddenly, a cool breeze blew on her face, she opened her eyes in surprise, and saw a figure in front of her, only to see him standing tall and jade, with a fluttering green shirt, and a long sword pointed obliquely at the ground.

"Officials do things, and irrelevant people leave quickly." A yacha warned loudly.

"Hmph, I think it's you who are leaving." The man said coldly and arrogantly.

"What a bold man, you have the ability to take off your mask and let the officials see who you are!"

"You're not worthy."

As soon as the word 'matching' came out, the man suddenly raised his sword and rushed forward, and the two sides immediately fought in a heap, and when the man turned around, she saw the silver mask on his face.

"It's him!" Summer Night remembered that night in the abandoned garden, it was also this silver-faced man, at the last moment, who killed those wild dogs and saved them, and this will appear here again to rescue her. "Who is he? Why save yourself? ”

Suddenly, a figure flashed in Xia Ye's mind, and it was the third son who looked exactly like An Hao.

"Could it be him? Is he really An Hao? Thinking of this, Xia Ye's heart was excited. Because, she really can't think of anyone who will save her a pockmarked 'ugly girl' several times.

It must be An Hao, he should have recognized himself that day, but because he had a last resort, he didn't recognize him face to face, but he secretly paid attention to himself, so he would appear in the abandoned garden later. It must be, the more I think about it on a summer night, the more right it is.

Xia Ye was thinking excitedly, the silver-faced man suddenly attacked sharply, 'Zheng Zheng Zheng' forced the yacha to retreat a few steps, turned his head and jumped to her side, and helped her waist up, the yacha took the opportunity to surround again, the silver-faced man put the sword in front of his chest, and said coldly: "If you entangle again, don't blame me for being ruthless under the sword!" ”

The yacha were all stunned, as if they were shocked by his words.

Taking advantage of this time, the silver-faced man picked up the summer night and jumped out, and instantly jumped out of Zhangxu, and those yacha only reacted at this time, shouting loudly and chasing after him, but at this time, he chased farther and farther.

The summer night was held in the arms of the silver-faced man, he ran fast and light, like a bird, the wind whistled past her ears, she looked up at his face covered by the mask, and couldn't help but stretch out her hand.

She ripped off his mask, but before she could see his true face, he quickly turned his head away, and at the same time, he lost consciousness at a pain in the back of his neck on a summer night.

When she woke up, she found that she was in the cell again, but she understood that this was not the prison of Jiangxia Mansion, because it was darker and very quiet, and it seemed that she was the only prisoner.

"Where is this? Why did he save me and lock me up again? Xia Ye was puzzled, but she immediately explained to him, "No, he won't do this to me, something must have happened to me again." ”

It was lit only by a torch, and when viewed through the barred door of the cell, it was perched alone on a wall at the end of the hallway, with what appeared to be a few stone steps.

"There's a staircase! It looks like it's an exit, hmph, I can't sit still, I have to run out. Summer Night held her breath at this time.

She saw that the lock on the cell door was similar to the lock in the Jiangxia Mansion prison, it was the kind of big copper lock, although this kind of lock was big, but it was the easiest to open for a summer night, she took out the snake bracelet with ease, opened the lock and slipped out of the prison door in three or two clicks. Easily she came to the entrance of the stairway, and when she was about to go up, she saw the torch stuck in the wall, rolled her eyes, and thought: You villains who hide their heads and tails, I will put out this fire for you, and let you fall into a dog and eat.

Thinking of this, she smiled evilly, and reached out to pull out the burning torch, only to find that the torch was actually attached to the wall, and when she looked closely, it was not wood that was burning, but an iron tray above the torch, in which charcoal was placed as fuel.

And at the moment when the torch was turned on the summer night, she caught a sound that was easily overlooked, it was the 'kaka' sound of the gears turning, like there was a mechanism behind the wall.

This aroused the interest of the summer night, and she carefully moved the torch again, and then the sound of gears came again from behind the wall, and she was even more sure that the torch was connected to some mechanism.

She seemed to forget that she was running for her life at this time, but began to ponder the secret behind the mechanism, and finally she found that this should be a secret door, because of the age, the square crack of the door, if not carefully examined, would have been blurred and difficult to discern.

"What's behind this wall?" Mysterious things always attract summer nights, and besides, such challenging traps also arouse her competitive spirit, and she decides to find out.

"Hey!" Xia Ye heard someone sigh deeply in her mind, but she didn't speak, she knew that this was Wuye and was dissatisfied with her approach, but she didn't bother to talk about her.

Because there is no sophisticated instrument, so Xia Ye can't directly crack the big 'key' of the torch, since it can't be solved from the outside, then directly reverse backwards from the inside, say what, she returned to the cell again, took the big copper lock on the door, and smashed the wall around the torch, and she made a fist-sized hole, sure enough, it was hollow, Xia Ye threw the copper lock, and used his hand to pick up the plaster of the pasted wall, and a machine was revealed inside, like a wooden clock core- The gears are staggered and interlocking.

It's so complicated that the average person will be dazzled by it, but for a summer night, it's only a matter of time before it's cracked. Speaking of this, I have to mention Uncle Qiang, if he hadn't forced herself to learn this 'craft' back then, she would only have to stare at now.

"Could it be a treasure cave behind this?" Summer Night was a little excited in my heart.

By the light of the torches, Summer Night finally figured out the order of the torches, she silently recited a few directions in her mouth, and pushed the torch with a little force in her hand, and the torch pulled the gears to move, and suddenly, she heard the sound of the 'Kakaka' stone rubbing, and Summer Night hurriedly stepped aside, and she saw the wall in front of her, which opened like a revolving door.

A cold wind came to her face, it looked very dark at first glance, but there seemed to be a faint white light, Xia Ye hesitated whether to go in, then she heard the sound of hurried footsteps behind her, and suddenly turned around to see Mo Liangren actually ran out of an empty cell, and was rushing towards her with a murderous face. Summer Night's surprise was no small feat, and she flashed into the wall, and the door closed behind her.

She heard Mo Liangren unwillingly banging on the wall behind the wall, and her heart was beating hard, Xia Ye didn't understand, how could Mo Liangren be in this dungeon, she was hiding in the dark, was she spying on her?

After a moment of darkness, the summer night felt the faint light of blue and white, and the cold like an ice vault. It turned out that there was nothing behind the wall, just an empty cavern, and Xia Ye couldn't help but regret a little, knowing that he had escaped directly from the stairs, and he would not have to be frozen here.

She decided to get out as soon as possible, or she would freeze to death here. So, I began to grope my way inside, and the further I went, the brighter the light became. She found that this was because there were a lot of white, glowing stones that interspersed irregularly between the stone walls to provide light. However, the stone also seems to be a source of cold, and whenever a summer night approaches them, they feel a cold that penetrates deep into the bone marrow, and the further you go inside, the lower the temperature of the whole cave becomes.

Suddenly, she saw a stone chamber glowing white in front of her, and it seemed to be made entirely of that white stone, so it was very brightly lit.

"How can there be a stone house here? Is there anyone living in such a cold place? "The summer night was so cold that her teeth were almost stuck together, and I thought it would be better to have a bed and quilt in this room, so let her wrap it in warm up first.

She endured the cold of the ice cellar and entered the stone room, and saw a table and chairs inside, but what surprised her the most was that a bed, which took up almost half the size of the entire stone house, was made of blocks of ice as thick as the bricks of the city wall, and on top of it was a white translucent veil, and there seemed to be someone inside.

Who could sleep on an ice bed in such a cold place, Summer Night really wanted to see it, she was about to walk over, but her eyes glanced at the table, where there was a painting, she couldn't help but glance curiously, but was surprised, it turned out to be a portrait of a person, and the person in the painting was her. How could there be a portrait of her here? What was the purpose of the man who secretly kept her portrait, she thought, it must be the man on the ice bed who was playing tricks, and she wanted to ask him for clarification.

In this way, she couldn't wait to step forward and lift the curtain.

However, the scene in front of her suddenly made her scream, and she turned around and ran out of the stone room in a panic, such a cold place, she only felt that her face was burning uncomfortably, as if the fire was burning.

Inside the curtain lay two naked people, a man and a woman, facing the sky on their backs, and there was a crimson band connected to their hearts, and what was that band, because the summer night was too flustered to see clearly.

"What's the panic? You're from the 21st century. Summer Night kept slapping his face with his hand, feeling annoyed, "By the way, that man seems to be wearing a silver mask on his face, could it be him!" But how could he be here, and he had just come to save me, lying on the ice bed like a dead man? ”

Just as she was about to go back and see again, she was startled when she heard someone coughing violently behind her, and she turned her head suddenly, and saw the man lying on the side of the bed, his mask tilted to one side, revealing the lower half of his face, and he kept vomiting blood, half of his face was full of blood, and the snow-white curtain was immediately dyed with a crimson color.

Summer Night was frightened, she didn't care about him naked at this time, rushed up to help him up, just reached out to grab his shoulder, suddenly a crimson strap rushed towards her, she instinctively reached out and grabbed it, but the strap immediately wrapped around her arm, and raised her triangular head to her.

"Oh my God, it's a poisonous snake." Summer Night didn't dare to move casually, then she found that the other end of the snake was still connected to the heart of the silver-faced man, it turned out that this was a two-headed snake, and its other head was biting the silver-faced man's **.

"Could it be that this man has been poisoned by snakes?" Seeing that the silver-faced man was vomiting blood in pain, Xia Ye thought that he had rescued him several times, and felt that he could not sit idly by. Now that she has a snake head in one hand, all she has to do is grab the other snake head.

So, she cautiously stretched out her hand, pinched the head of the snake that bit the silver-faced man, and pulled it off with a forceful pull.

I heard the silver-faced man suddenly roar in pain, rolled to the ground, and convulsed a few times, but there was no movement.

Summer Night didn't know what was going on, so frightened that she stood aside with a snake head in each hand.

"What did you do?"

With the sound of a woman tearing apart with anger, Xia Ye saw Mo Liangren rush in as if she was going to eat someone.
