Chapter 242: Into the Ground
The darkness crept into the crack in the wall, which was a load-bearing wall between the shops, and the wall was thicker, and a very small space was carved out, and only two people could stand in it, and the third person had to fall into the hole. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Very small space, hidden walls, this kind of secret passage is in danger in the city - usually when a big insect hits the underground protective layer, let the ground soldiers quickly go to the dangerous area, of course, it may also be to facilitate the Centennial Incident, the secret passage designed in Jingcheng at the beginning, when it is necessary to violently reclaim the city, you can sneak into the ground from these secret passages, destroy the rainbow and other important facilities.
This kind of secret passage usually does not lead to the basement level, and it is very likely to go deep underground, or even go straight to the lowest level.
Chen Zhen and Xia Fan put on white coats embroidered with the word "bone" on their chests, Zhou Ding took off his mask, wrapped some bandages around his body and pretended to be injured, and when he was ready, Chen Zhen was the first to climb down the ladder.
In Liangcheng, he had climbed such a tunnel once, when he was chasing Tian Yi, he jumped down directly and used the ladder to slow down, this time the situation was different, he couldn't be so aggressive, he pulled the two sides of the ladder and slid down.
The ladder went deeper than seventy meters into the ground, it was very cold, and at the bottom was a passage, and there was no one, and there were many such secret passages in the city, and it was impossible to keep all of them.
It was impossible to determine what level the people of Bone Paradise were working on, it could be up or down, but it was certainly not this level, because they had walked down the aisle for a long time, and they had not seen anyone and there was no light.
The three of them are here for the first time, and they don't know the specific structure, but this is a big maze, and the maze means that there will be many up and down stairs on the same floor, and if you want to find a place underground, you may get lost, but to get back to the ground is very simple, as long as you see the stairs, go up, and you can get out after all.
They didn't talk all the way, they lightened their steps, led by Chen Zhen, shuttling through the maze, the cold will give people an eerie feeling, Xia Fan is not used to such an environment and atmosphere, fear accumulates in his heart, and he looks a little uncomfortable.
I don't know how many floors they went up, and finally at the top of a staircase, they saw the fire.
Xia Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief, Zhou Ding also felt much more comfortable, the three of them didn't rush up, checked their respective equipment again, and then walked upstairs.
There were people guarding the staircase, and when they heard the movement, they immediately pulled out their weapons and guarded, and sure enough, as the man said, they were wearing white coats, with the word "bone" on their chests, the blue main body, and the red two horizontal.
"What's going on?" The two looked at Chen Zhen and Xia Fan's clothes, then looked at Zhou Ding, and asked with a frown.
"Escort the people you caught." Xia Fan pointed at Zhou Ding and said, she wore a mask, put on makeup and became a thinner man, lowered her voice and spoke in a thick voice, although she couldn't compare with Mr. You, it was not easy to see the problem.
"Why come from below? Where do you receive people? The two of them were still very wary.
"He is Zhou Ding, an important prisoner, in order to avoid being seen by the wolf guards or others lurking in the city, after the soldiers secretly arrested him, he chose to contact us at the nearest entrance." Xia Fan said a very credible reason, there is a great possibility that there are wolf guards in ambush in Qingcheng, and no one can guarantee that there is none.
The two were immediately attracted by the name "Zhou Ding", the former deputy captain of the Wolf Guard, is indeed a very important prisoner, and it is indeed a person who will be attracted by Qi Yunxiao's news, and it is indeed not suitable to walk around on the street.
They took a closer look, and one of them asked, "Is it really Zhou Ding?" ”
Xia Fan nodded, took out a few wanted warrants from his arms, and handed Zhou Ding's one to the other party, there are such wanted warrants in many places in the city, she was careful, and when she stole the white coat, she brought one back, just to use.
The two took it, compared it with the firelight for a while, and whispered a few words, one of them said to Xia Fan: "You wait here for a while, I'll call someone, he has a special status, and the boss may need special treatment." ”
"Okay." Xia Fan nodded and stood on the street.
Zhou Ding looked weak and powerless, he had already put on a pair of fake shackles, he had a way to get it open, and when he moved slightly, the chain would clang.
After waiting for about five minutes, the guard came with an old man, with a hooked nose and a pair of glasses, his head was already bald, and the rest were all gray and white.
Seeing him, Chen Zhen frowned slightly.
It was a researcher from Bone Paradise, and he was the target of Chen Zhen's killing, but the reason for his frown was that the word "bone" on the man's chest was not blue, but green, and the only ones that were the same were the two horizontal lines of red.
These people seem to use the color of the word "bone" to distinguish their identities.
Chen Zhen wore a mask, no one could recognize him, and the man didn't look at him, stared at Zhou Ding for a while, beckoned, and said, "Follow me." ”
After saying that, he turned back and walked the way he came.
Xia Fan and Chen Zhen grabbed one of Zhou Ding's arms, followed behind the man, and walked inside.
This floor is much more relaxed, the walls are lit with candles, and occasionally you can see guards standing guard and patrolling, all wearing white coats, and the defense is quite tight, and after walking for a while, Chen Zhen saw a "dumb man" coming out of a door, holding a glass jar in his hand, and the jar contained some red liquid.
The stupid man walked against the wall, like a robot, and would bypass obstacles when encountered, and then continued to walk against the wall, holding the jar very steadily, walking not so fast, and gradually being left behind.
Chen Zhen and Xia Fan glanced at each other, they thought that these people were controlled by the suffering root, but there will still be a distance to control after all, if they stay on the ground and can control the people in the depths of the ground, it is too powerful, and the number of people who are stupid is too much, he can't control it alone anyway.
The conjecture of "control" seems wrong.
After walking for about five minutes, the person leading the way in front of him turned to a room, knocked on the door, and waited for the person inside to answer, then pushed the door open and walked in.
It was an office, very bright, with a huge desk, and behind it sat a middle-aged man, also wearing a white coat, but the main body of the word "bone" on his chest was black.
He was writing with a pen in his hand, and only stopped when he heard the door open, and looked up at the person who had walked into the room.
This is not a person from Bone Paradise, at least Chen Zhen has not seen it.
"I caught Zhou Ding, what should I do?" The old man lifted his glasses, wiped the thin hair that covered the top of his head, and asked the man carelessly.
"Zhou Ding?" The middle-aged man put down his pen, took out a wanted warrant from the desk drawer, looked at it for a while, and asked Chen Zhen, "How did you catch it?" ”
"I don't know." Xia Fan replied: "I heard that the soldier said that someone was informing. ”
"Oh? Not one of ours? The middle-aged man put away the wanted warrant, smiled, and said to himself: "It seems that there is one more card in his hand, not bad, very good." ”
Zhou Ding looked at the middle-aged man and asked, "You should be an official, right?" Where is Qi Yunxiao? ”
It is most appropriate for him to ask this, he is here to find Qi Yunxiao, even if he is caught, he wants to know her whereabouts.
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "It's better to care about yourself first." ”
He picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, looked at the ceiling and thought for a while, and said to the old man, "What do you think is better to deal with?" ”
The old man thought for a while and said: "It's a pity to make such an important person a puppet, let's feed some medicine and put it away, as a bargaining chip, in case Chen Zhen comes, with a concern around him, his combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced, and it will be easier to catch him, anyway, if you feed the medicine, even if you let it go, it will only be a dead end." ”
He also followed the words of the middle-aged man, but changed the cards to chips instead of chips.
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "It's been so long, I'm afraid Chen Zhen has already come and lurked in the city, but he can't find out any news, so he can only trouble the soldiers in Qingcheng, and then we can start to implement the second step of the plan." ”
The old man sighed and said, "I heard that he is getting more and more powerful now, and the affairs of the Lou family ......"
The two talked about Chen Zhen, and Chen Zhen listened to him, but unfortunately he couldn't ask any questions, otherwise it would definitely arouse the suspicion of the other party.
Zhou Ding listened silently, the two seemed to have full confidence in their plans, and said in front of him, without hesitation, he didn't interrupt them, anyway, the more he said, the more beneficial it was for them, and when the two of them were almost talking, he asked again: "Is Qi Yunxiao in your hands?" ”
The middle-aged man smiled, looked at Zhou Ding, and said proudly: "You can say yes, you can also say no, we know where she is, but we didn't do it, and there is no need to do it, because it is impossible for you to know where she is, as long as we say that she is in our hands, it is enough, aren't you fooled?" ”
This sentence is very informative, Qi Yunxiao is not in Qingcheng, not in the hands of the Bai family or Bone Paradise, but in a place that is difficult to find, otherwise the middle-aged man would not be so confident.
Then the next thing they have to do is simple, find and rescue Fang Wei, leave Qingcheng, if possible, kill the researchers of Bone Paradise, and then ask for Qi Yunxiao's whereabouts; If you have the chance, kill Bai Cheng.
"Alright, let's go." The old man saw that the middle-aged man picked up the pen again, took the three of them out, and continued to walk inside.
This time the route was more complicated, after a while, he stopped in front of an iron door, there were many guards standing next to the door, and the door was written in four big words: "Warehouse Heavy Land", but it was not stated what kind of warehouse it was.
When the guard opened the door, the old man led them in again.
There are a lot of cages in the warehouse, the kind of big cage that Chen Zhen saw downstairs in Yicheng Ganfu, there are many people locked in it, and as soon as someone saw Zhou Ding being brought in, they immediately looked at him with wide eyes and called his name.
But Fang Wei is not in it.
