Chapter 5 The Basement

I stretched out my hands and tugged at the thing, and when I touched it, it felt as thick as firewood, slender and long, all the way to the deepest part of the nest - it was not a human hand at all! I'm still careless!

The thing was so powerful that I dragged it back and forth, making quite a noise in the nest. Dadong must have realized that something was wrong, grabbed my ankles and dragged me out.

I thought that I would finally be saved now, but I didn't expect Dadong to be dragged if he didn't drag, this drag is even worse! The two sides worked together, and I felt like my neck was about to break in two.

I couldn't breathe, and I began to feel dizzy, and there seemed to be a lot of colorful light flashing in front of me. I thought to myself that this would not work, I would die unjustly in the hands of Dadong, so I began to kick Dadong's hand desperately. Dadong Bacheng was kicked by me so suddenly, and he didn't pull it, and he didn't pull it, and the strength of his hand was much smaller all of a sudden.

I backhanded my waist and tried to touch the black bear, but this touch, his grandmother's, I scolded in my heart - scolding myself for being so stupid at the time! I don't know if I took the dagger in my hand in advance, in this narrow nest, my hand couldn't touch my back at all!

I tugged at the thing with both hands, trying to push my body forward as much as I could, trying to leave more room around my neck. But it was this drill that Dadong finally let go. I just felt my body slip, and I was dragged into it like I was flying.

For a moment, I felt like a piece of meat hanging from a rope, being dragged by that thing towards the hole. I don't know where I'm going to be dragged to, and I don't have any room to resist at the moment.

Weeds lapped at my face, brambles scratched my skin, and my body quickly shuttled through the nest, holding on to the thing around my neck with both hands. After a while, I felt like I was about to die. My head began to get dizzy, my limbs gradually lost strength, and I thought to myself, hanging myself would be nothing more than that......

I let go of one hand and tried to grab something around me, but it was dragged so fast that I didn't have time to grab anything. The little consciousness I had left was still thinking about what to do, and then in the next moment, I grabbed the thing almost without any choice, opened my mouth and bit it.

The first bite, after the bite, the thing didn't react, I just felt the smell of the earth in the first bite. So he opened his mouth and took another bite according to the old place. With my years of experience as a foodie, I felt that the taste was wrong with this bite. Chicken flavor? No, no, no...... It is a feeling of biting into a pig's bone.

I only heard a "crackling", and I bit off a large piece of the thing "bare mouth", and a wet liquid spilled on my face, I didn't care about it, and in an instant, I felt the strength in my neck loosen. The thing was hurriedly put away and immediately threw me out.

However, the space was too small, and I wasn't thrown very far, but with the inertia, I felt my body roll to the side. Then, for some reason, I rolled into a funnel-like place.

For a moment, I only felt that my back was soft, as if it was all loose sand, and before I could figure out what was going on, my body suddenly sank, and I fell through the hole......

It was dusty, I didn't know where I had fallen, my eyes narrowed into a slit, and everywhere I could see was dust, and dirt was falling on top of my head.

I held my breath and pulled around with my hands, vaguely feeling that the space I was in seemed to be large, so I tried to stand up and run to the side. Shaking the ash off his head, rubbing his eyes, he saw that it was pitch black all around.

That kind of blackness is an absolute darkness, like suddenly going blind, and you can't see anything. Not knowing where I was, I panicked and immediately touched the flashlight that I was hanging on my wrist...... But I was dumbfounded when I touched it, I didn't know when the rope would break, and the flashlight was gone.

The burning rod was gone, and it was a bit long, and after some tossing, it made sense to fall out of the trouser pocket. The two most important things in my gear were gone, which was a disaster for me, but I was lucky enough to get my hands on the bear.

I touched my neck, which had been almost broken, and froze in place, waiting for things to turn around. I don't know how long it took, but the sound of the sand falling was gone, the dust in the air settled, and gradually, I saw some sparse spots of light appear overhead.

There was a hole more than a meter wide, and on top of the hole was a nest made of bushes, from which I fell.

At this moment, the sunlight casts countless spots of light through the bushes, and there are some sporadic light shadows falling on this hole. With this scattered light, I tried to adapt myself to this darkness, and it didn't take long for my eyes to seem less dark.

I have a vague sense of space and can make out some objects. I feel like I'm in a basement.

There were some boxy objects not far in front of me, which felt like wooden furniture or something, and I wasn't sure for it. After a while, my eyesight improved, and I saw rows of bookshelves full of books and bamboo slips......

If this place wasn't Jing Lianhong's Mizi Garden, I would definitely be excited to death when I saw the current scene! Because the books placed here are sure to be precious ancient books. Jing Lianhong also likes whimsical and bizarre things, so these books may be written with some mysteries, which must be particularly interesting.

However, I really don't have time to study now, and I can't see it clearly even if I want to, so let's honestly find a way to leave.

Reaching out, I groped in the air like a blind man, but at that moment I heard a sound from the bushes above me.

Could it be that the slender thing has come back to grab me? I was nervous all at once.

I copied the black bear, lowered my body and made a defensive gesture. At this time, I saw several glow sticks falling from the hole, and the colorful light was like fireflies, accompanied by the sound of "crackling" on the ground, and the basement suddenly lit up.

Immediately afterwards, a black figure appeared at the entrance of the cave, and I saw that the figure first grabbed something, poked his feet in, and then let go of his hand, jumped into the air, and landed firmly in front of me.

"Xiao Rong?" When I looked at it through the light, I was amazed.

"Brother Yang, are you okay?" Xiao Rong got up, patted the dirt on his body and asked me.

"No, it's okay......" Seeing that it was Xiao Rong, my heart immediately settled down, and I hurriedly asked, "How did you get here?" "The nest of the bush is very narrow, and if it were not dragged by something and crawled in with bare hands, I am afraid that it would not have been able to climb to a deep place in a day.

Xiao Rong said that it was not difficult to find, the shrubs that nested were gray-green, different from other shrubs, and the sun shone brightly, it was easy to distinguish the direction of the nest. And the bush was very strong, like a basket of wood, and he stepped on the bush and searched carefully, and soon found dust rising from a certain place, and ran to it, and when he looked at it, he found me.

I nodded, and said in my heart that fortunately, this kid is clever and can always get along with each other when he encounters problems, but he is much better than the "glasses", and it is really right to find him!

Then Xiao Rong said, let me not worry about the others, Dadong left a message, saying that they went to the highest attic first, let Xiao Rong find me and try to go out with me, and then he will signal us.

Hearing this, I was dissatisfied, "Dadong is really relieved of me!" Isn't he afraid that you will find my corpse? ”

"It's a corpse, I'll take you out too!" Xiao Rong patted me on the shoulder.

Why do I sound so uncomfortable? I pouted and ignored him.

Picking up the glow stick and looking around, I saw more ancient books and bamboo slips. I'm not as nervous as I was now, so I can finally see what those books are.

I picked up a copy casually, and I was worried that there would be a mechanism, so I was very careful when I took it. When I opened it, I found that it was a book describing strange and strange things. The text in the ancient book was not easy to understand, and there was no punctuation, so I only barely understood a few lines. In the book, there is a place called "Bamboo Mountain", which is rich in iron, and there is also a kind of lavender on the mountain, which smells very good, and can be inserted into the body to cure madness.

I flipped through a few pages, and I saw that some places in the book were still circled with pens. This is probably Jing Lianhong's handwriting, I thought to myself. But this book is really strange, it has been in the basement for so long without any protective measures, except for a little gray, there is no mildew at all, I don't know how to do it.

"Xiao Rong, do you have any extra space in your bag?" Closing the book, I asked Xiao Rong, only to see that he was groping in one direction, as if looking for a way out.

Hearing me say this, Xiao Rong turned around, "Do you want to pack these books?" ”

This kid is so smart, it's like a roundworm in my stomach. I smiled and nodded wildly at him, "I'll just pack one or two...... One or two books only...... "I looked and found that there were still a lot of medical books on the shelves, and I thought to myself that I would bring them back to my old man, and he must be very happy, and maybe he could scold me less."

"Okay, bring it." Xiao Rong was very obedient, unloaded his backpack, opened the zipper and waited for me.

I picked out a few books about home remedies and medicinal stones and handed them to Xiao Rong, and watched him neatly put the books in his bag. Actually, if I hadn't lost my backpack when I passed through the palace mechanism, I definitely wouldn't want to trouble Xiao Rong.

I have always felt that Xiao Rong is a very obedient child, although he is very careful in doing things, but he has no heart for people, so I am always worried that he will be pitted by the people around him one day.

I still remember the first time I entered the "Tuli Gate", a group of people walked on the meadow and prepared to go out, I once joked with Xiao Rong: "We haven't taken a good turn around such a big Xuanyuan ancient city, there must be a lot of valuable treasures in it, or we will send the girls to the door, and then turn back, get some treasures or something to take out and sell, we will definitely make a lot of money!" ”

After finishing speaking, I saw Xiao Rong silent, I thought he was too lazy to talk to me, but after a while, I saw him start to pack his things. I asked him what was wrong? He replied, "If you want to go, go on the road now, and don't delay any longer." ”

I fainted when I heard this, and then I listened to the girl singing "Listen to your mother, don't let her get hurt......"

It makes me not depressed.

Right now, after loading the ancient book, Xiao Rong pointed to the dark depths opposite and said, "There seems to be movement over there, let's go over and take a look." ”

I nodded.

At the moment, there are no exits on these three sides, and if there is still a dead end on the other side, this place is too weird!

Walking forward step by step over the rows of wooden bookshelves, faintly, I seemed to hear something. But the voice was so faint that it was hard to read. It was too dark to see even with a glow stick, so Xiao Rong took out a burning stick and polished it on the ground, and as the sparks erupted, the basement suddenly lit up, and it was like day for a moment.

After staying in the dark environment for a long time, looking at this bright light, I suddenly felt a pain in my eyes, and I hurriedly squinted my eyes. It slowed down for a long time before slowly opening up. Looking ahead, I saw a stone staircase passage at the end of the basement, and next to the staircase was a bloody brick wall......
