Chapter 391 Coins in the Barrel

"What does it smell like?"

In the dim underground wine cellar, Chen Tian suddenly smelled a faint smell that immediately attracted his attention. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Formalin?"

And after he carefully judged it for a while, Chen Tian also recognized the corresponding name of the smell in his memory, and at the same time, he immediately frowned and looked for the source of the smell.

Why does this cellar smell of formalin?

With such doubts, Chen Tian tried very hard to distinguish the unpleasant smell mixed with the aroma of wine. However, Chen Tian's nose is very sensitive, but it is obviously very difficult to find the source of the smell quickly. Coupled with the fact that the dark wine cellar was not illuminated by any light source, Chen Tian's search was extremely slow.

And after walking back and forth in the cellar of about forty or fifty square meters, Chen Tian was still unable to discern where the smell came from.

This result is not because Chen Tian's nose is not working, or the source of the smell is not clear, but because the smell is so faint that Chen Tian estimates that even if he gets a police dog in, there may not be any clues. After this search, Chen Tian also had a preliminary understanding of the wine cellar he was in.

The area of the wine cellar is about forty or fifty square meters, and the height is about three meters, which is not very high. The wooden barrels placed in the cellar are arranged in a circle around the surrounding earthen walls, making a total of 58 barrels.

The barrels were all filled with wine in progress, something that Chen Tian had checked when he was looking for the source of the formalin smell. After all, the smell of formalin coming from the barrel is the most likely situation, but after Chen Tian carefully searched each barrel, he did not find a barrel with the smell of formalin

After such a careful search, Chen Tian not only wanted to find the source of the strange formalin smell, but also looked for life for his survival.

There's definitely a reason why the game traps the player in this cellar, and that reason is most likely that the player needs to find some kind of key clue or item in the cellar. After all, if this wine cellar has no use value, then the player should have already judged death the moment he was caught by the man-eating monster, and he would definitely not trap the player here.

But even if he guessed that this possibility existed, Chen Tian still didn't find the slightest clue after some searching. And the smell of formalin obviously can't be regarded as a clue, because I'm afraid that this smell can't be smelled by one or two people except Chen Tian.

What is the crux of the matter? Could it be among the more than fifty barrels?

With such doubts, Chen Tian felt that he had nothing else to do except open all the wine barrels one by one and search them again.

But even if the barrel is opened, it is extremely difficult for Chen Tian to find something from this barrel of wine. After all, the stopper at the top of the barrel is only the size of a glass, and the absence of light in the cellar is not enough to see what is in the barrel, and smelling the barrel with your nose can only smell the aroma of wine.

Wait a minute...

Thinking like this, Chen Tian suddenly realized a key point, and then he immediately opened the cork of one of the wine barrels and began to try.

If you can't see it with your eyes or smell it with your nose, you can touch it with your hands.

Although the mouth of these wine barrels is only the size of a cup, Chen Tian's body is now the size of a child, and his arms can barely reach into it.

Anyway, there is no other way to escape from being trapped in this ghost place, so I just try to guess if it is possible.

With this thought, Chen Tian also reached into the first wine barrel without any use. And the result is obviously not so incidental, after all, winning the lottery as soon as you come up is a bit too.

But after Chen Tian touched seven wine barrels in a row, Chen Tian actually really touched something at the bottom of the eighth wine barrel.

This astonishing direction made Chen Tian excitedly grab the item, and then after a careful look, Chen Tian immediately became a little surprised.

"Money?"

Looking at a coin in his hand, Chen Tian didn't expect that there would be money in this wine barrel at all. After carefully touching the imprint on the coin, Chen Tian quickly judged that this coin seemed to be a coin used on Ma Island at that time.

But why do coins appear in kegs, and what does it say?

With doubts, he continued to touch a few wine barrels, and Chen Tian found that many of the barrels in this pile had coins, and there were even several in some of the barrels, and there were many styles of coins.

After searching all the barrels in the entire wine cellar, Chen Tian found a total of thirty-one coins, which obviously showed that this strange situation was not an accidental phenomenon.

Why do you hide coins in kegs? And who is the person hiding the coin?

Although all this is not clear, Chen Tian has roughly guessed one point, that is, the person who put these coins is definitely an orphan of one or several orphanages, because only a child's hand can reach into the barrel and take out the coins again.

To escape? So to save money?

An idea came to mind, and Chen Tian immediately recalled the contents of the newspaper in his father's hand before he entered this game.

The orphan who was adopted is missing? Could it have something to do with the coins and the orphans who want to escape?

What's wrong with the orphanage? What makes these kids want to escape?

Is that man-eating monster really a cannibal? Or is he the reason why the orphans want to escape?

At present, there are too few clues, not to mention that he is trapped here and cannot escape, which makes Chen Tian, who wants to further investigate the problem, distressed and helpless.

But the way to escape from this place is not non-existent, at least Chen Tian already has an idea now, but the time has not yet come to verify it.

Therefore, in the process of waiting for the opportunity, Chen Tian could only search the wine cellar over and over again, trying to find some useful clues.

And no matter how Chen Tian looked for it, the source of the smell of formalin could never be found, which made Chen Tian want to give up exploring and save some physical strength for his next actions.

Chen Tian, who didn't know how long he had been in the wine cellar, was quietly meditating in the dark, and he didn't know if it was because of the influence of the environment, Chen Tian's mood was very calm at the moment.

After an unknown amount of time, the silence was broken by the sound of footsteps, and the locked cellar door at the top of the cellar staircase was suddenly opened.

Here it comes!

As Chen Tian expected, at the moment when the cellar door was opened again, the huge figure once again resisted the second weak figure into the cellar, and then threw it on the ground and turned to leave.

Chen Tian had been lying in the corner of the cellar, quietly observing all this happening, only after the huge figure left again and closed the cellar door, Chen Tian slowly approached the figure that was still motionless on the ground.

As soon as Chen Tian slowly approached the figure, he quickly stretched out a coin in his hand to the other party's neck, lightly touched the other party's skin, and said coldly to the figure: "Don't move, otherwise my hand will not slip." (To be continued.) )
