Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Darkness Advances

"Don't patronize the rope, be careful around."

Professor Lan stopped the group and carried the rope alone.

"Professor Lan, do you want to light the lamp?" Tang Tiezui asked.

"I don't think we should light the lights for the time being, it's uncertain if there is anything around us, but if there is, he must be afraid of us, otherwise we wouldn't have fallen so easily. again

The usual darkroom also has backup lighting and there is no lighting in this place, which means that there is no light here under any circumstances, and if we light the lamp, it is very likely that some kind of lighting will be put in some way

Something activates. The thing around us is trying to lure us into lighting the lamp. ”

After listening to Professor Lan's analysis, the three of them felt that it was safer not to light the lamp. But at this moment, it is really difficult to overcome the great fear in my heart if everyone continues to move forward in the dark. In the end, it was Fat Dahai who thought

A compromise.

"I have two 'wolf-eyed' flashlights in my backpack, Professor Lan and Tiezuier, each of you take one, and you are ready to light the lamp, and turn on the light as soon as there is a situation. Lao Bai, you can fight better than me, the two of us

Just get ready to fight. ”

As he spoke, Fat Dahai took out the two 'wolf eyes' from his bag. As soon as his hands came out of his bag, two flashlights were taken away. Fat Dahai couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he encountered this situation, and felt that there was there

Something is wrong, but I can't think of it for a while.

"Tiezui'er, are you ready for your flashlight? Okay, let's hurry away, and be careful of the sea and the crane dance. ”

With Professor Lan's urging, the four of them began to move forward again. This time, Professor Lan Yu Tang Tiezui pinned the cane to his waist, holding a flashlight in one hand and a peachwood dagger in the other, and the white crane danced

Fat Dahai held a peachwood cane and guarded one after the other. The step forward has also been changed to a lady's step. In this way, the four of them really stopped wrestling, but their speed also slowed down significantly.

"Slow down here, there's a door, we're about to enter the second hallway."

After walking for a short time, Hakuzuru Mai found a doorway. There is only one doorway here, and there is no door above. The door opened very narrowly, and when they entered the door, there was no agreed order, and the four people crowded together again.

"Crane dance, slow down, don't go so fast, beware of falling again."

As soon as Professor Lan's words fell, the white crane dance let out an exclamation.

"Hey! I'm here! Isn't that the one who walks in front of you you? ”

As soon as Bai Hewu's words came out, everyone couldn't help but clench the guy in their hands.

"Professor Lan, Tiezui lights up." Hakuzuru Mai made a decisive decision.

"I mean, what's the matter with you two? Turn on the lights! After more than ten seconds passed, there was no light, and the fat sea was in a hurry.

"You think I don't want to turn on the lights? What the hell are you? From the moment you put it in my hands, I felt something was wrong! Tang Tiezui retorted.

"I put it in your hands? Didn't you take it from me? You were very accurate at the time, and I still suspect that you have glow-in-the-dark eyes or what's the matter? ”

"You two stop arguing, now you can be sure that there is someone else here. The flashlight must have been adjusted, don't be afraid, if it doesn't work, we'll go back and go out to find the lighting equipment first. "White Crane Dance

Discussion.

"This time I'm in front, don't move yet." After a while, Bai Hewu raised his feet and walked back cautiously.

The other three didn't guess what the latter sentence of the White Crane Dance was implying to it, but they did it anyway.

The white crane dance lifted her feet and walked back, and the sound of heavy footsteps echoed in the corridor, which seemed unusually empty. Suddenly, the three of them heard a "poof", followed by a crisp sound of footsteps

The neighborhood quickly moved into the distance. The sound was normal at first, and within a few steps the crowd listened to the sound getting higher and higher. The sound grew quieter and faded away.

White Crane Dance said that going back was actually a ploy to lure the enemy. Taking advantage of the silence of the few seconds before leaving, Hakuzuru Mai bit the tip of her tongue and took a mouthful of blood, and immediately took the blood when she heard the sound of nearby footsteps abnormal

Squirted out. The "thing" was driven away, and Hakuzuru Mai didn't say anything, but everyone knew that they had to move on.

The four of them made a list of old formations and chased them in the direction where the footsteps had left. It didn't take long for the four of them to know why the footsteps just now were in the "sky".

"Go slower, there's a staircase in front of you." White Crane Dance reminded.

The stairs are not long but steep. After going up to the second floor, the walls on the left and right sides could no longer be touched. After going upstairs, Bai Hewu took out two stones from his pocket and threw them out, judging from the echo, this place was more than several people expected

Much more spacious.

"Stick to the wall. So there is a reference. ”

Led by Hakuzuru Mai, the four of them walked to the wall near the outside. In fact, there are no characteristics of this wall to refer to, and the greatest use of this is psychological comfort. After walking a short distance, a few people suddenly heard a crisp sound outside the wall. The sound sounded like something fragile had been shattered, but it was dozens of louder than something broken

Fold.

"I said Lao Bai? I don't think you know what it sounds like, so I won't ask. Shall we walk against the wall inside? ”

Tang Tiezuier's proposal was unanimously approved by everyone. The four of them moved under the inner wall.

"Lao Bai, it's not a way for us to go on like this! Even if that thing was sprayed to death by you just now, it would be difficult for us blind cats to touch it! Tang Tiezui'er proposed again.

"Yes, Crane Dance, there is only a floor plan on the first floor at the entrance of this research institute, and we don't know the layout of the second floor, so it's not okay to touch it blindly." Professor Lan also objected.

"Actually, I think you've all overlooked a problem. I don't think there's going to be a place in a building that doesn't have visible light. ”

"Why?" The other three asked together.

"First of all, it's clear that this building was built to trap the 'Soul Locking Wood'. But as soon as I entered the peach forest, I was thinking that it was such a lonely building with no supporting facilities. So where are the technicians here doing research? Where do you live again? At first, I thought that these facilities were in some hidden place, but now that I look at it, there must be laboratories and living quarters on the second floor. ”

"That's right! According to Lao Bai's analysis, there must be dormitories and laboratories here. If we find a lab, we'll be able to learn more about Soul Lockwood. Tang Tiezui said.

"What Crane Dance said makes a lot of sense, but I think it's more pragmatic for us to go directly to the director's office. Okay, let's check carefully to see if there is a door on the wall. ”

"Stop, there's a door." After walking a short distance, Fat Dahai excitedly stopped everyone.

"Don't be too happy, this door is unlocked?" Tang Tiezui said.

"You're a crow's mouth." Fat Sea apparently touched the doorknob.

"If it's locked, move on! The house shouldn't be the only one. The white crane danced.

"If it can be opened, I think I should try to open it!" Professor Lan said.

"What is this for?" The rest are humane.

"Huh! I'm just in this room with more important stuff. ”
