Chapter Twenty-Six: The Iron Gate
The staircase is made of cement and extends down to a depth of nearly three floors, and at the end of the staircase there is a doorway. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The door appears to be made of iron, about two meters high, and the two doors are tightly closed, and the whole body is a reddish-brown color.
I subconsciously touched the door, and the jerky friction couldn't help but come, and when I looked back at my hands, I found that there was actually a trace of rust red on it.
At this time, the kicked his right foot on the door, and the sparse little red particles suddenly fell.
"What kind of broken door, it's all rusty and still so strong?" The couldn't help but curse.
The shadow went to the door and shone it all over, and then touched it with his hand, his expression couldn't help but tighten, and he wondered: "Why is this door so strange, it is locked from the inside?" ”
Shadow's words made me pay attention to the door again, and sure enough, after looking at it carefully, I was stunned that there was no lock.
No matter what kind of lock it is, as long as it is on the door leaf, there must be a mark. A hole or a seam will also have a little imprint.
"What do you mean?" The suddenly poked in and leaned towards the door again. "Even if it's locked from the inside, it must have a lock on the outside, right?"
That's true, but there is really nothing else on this door except rusty yellow.
The three of us fumbled on the door for a long time, but we couldn't find a trace.
"What should I do?" The sighed and lamented, "Now turn back, right?" It's a waste of my time. ”
As soon as I heard what he said, I knew that he was a little depressed, but I was a little unwilling in my heart, so I said, "Look again, maybe in another position." ”
I said this casually, but the believed it and groped for the walls on both sides of the stairs.
I couldn't beat him with his serious appearance, so I walked over to the shadow leaning on the door, and said, "Shadow, are you sure this is the entrance to the ancient city?" ”
The shadow turned around and touched the door again, and said thoughtfully, "That's right. This place I remember. ”
His previous "dream theory" suddenly appeared in my heart, so I pursed my lips and muttered, "You can be blinded!" ”
However, this time, the shadow didn't talk nonsense anymore, only listened to him say lightly: "The situation at that time was very complicated, and I don't remember it very clearly." But one thing is for sure, I have seen this door on a piece of paper. ”
The shadow's back fluttered from time to time as it spoke, as if its body was being shaken by something.
"Don't scare me." I vigilantly slapped him on the right shoulder, and the frequency of the shaking reached my hand, which was even more inexplicably gloomy.
At this moment, a suddenly screamed from the back of his head: "Come here." What the hell is this? ”
At this moment, a soft laugh suddenly came out of the shadow's mouth, but in an instant, the shadow's originally deep voice came again: "Go up and have a look." ”
I was stunned, still a little puzzled, but the shadow had already turned around at this time, and seeing that he looked normal, I didn't think much of it, and then ran to the on the top of a few steps.
Walking up, the sound of "knocking" seems to be much lighter, and I don't know what the structure of this staircase is.
The place the was pointing to was the staircase under his feet. The staircase looked ordinary, just a piece of dry cement. But on the line connected to the staircase above, there are still clues.
"Is it blood?" The asked.
The shadow brushed the line with his right index finger, and then sniffed it under his nose. Suddenly, his face turned ugly.
"It's blood." Shadow frowned.
When I heard this, I was immediately startled, and instinctively took two steps back, almost not falling.
At this time, the lines of the stairs are clearly still overflowing red, if it is blood, then there is no living creature in the stairs?
"Looks like there's something down there." I said apprehensively.
The had already pulled out his pistol by this time, staring at the line vigilantly, and there was even murder in his eyes.
The shadow touched the line a few times, and his face became even more depressed, and he said, "This staircase is fixed, that is, it should not be open from above." It seems that we have to hurry down the ladder to find out what exactly is caught in the ladder. ”
After the shadow finished speaking, he walked straight back to the rusty iron door.
This time, instead of staring at the iron door as before, he rubbed the door inch by inch with his hand.
While Shadow was doing these moves, the and I were behind him, and we didn't dare to let up for a moment. The pointed his gun at the top of the stairs, and I stared warily at the shadow.
The movement of the shadow's hand was very slow, and he paused for two or three seconds almost without moving, and it took ten minutes for the two doors to be touched. But when I saw that his face had not changed, I couldn't help but be deflated.
"Shadow, are you sure there's something wrong with this door?" The said impatiently.
The shadow didn't answer, but his right hand had already reached the edge of the lower right corner of the right door.
I couldn't help but get nervous, the shadow's movements were as careful as ever, but the expression on his face changed slightly.
About half a minute later, his hand touching the door "swished", and in an instant he passed through the door.
"I'll rub it." I subconsciously yelled.
When the heard this, he immediately turned his face, and his head couldn't help but squeeze to the side of the shadow.
"I didn't expect you to break through the wall!" The muttered, and his eyes seemed to shine through.
The shadow's entire palm pierced through the door, and his wrist twisted slightly, and in a few moments, there was a "click" from inside the door.
I saw the shadow pull his hand out, and then pushed the door with both hands, and the door "creaked" and was immediately pushed open.
"Lying grass, I'll just say, it can't be the door closed inside, otherwise how can people get in!" After the sighed, he instantly rushed inside with his gun in his hand.
Shadow and I followed him and walked in vigilantly.
As soon as I walked in, I could smell an unusually pungent smell, similar to rancidity, but with a slight freshness. The two collide with each other, which makes the overall taste strange.
I looked around with a wolf's eye and found that it was a basement, rectangular in shape, and the overall space was very large, about fifty or sixty square meters.
The door we came in happened to be at one end of one of the walls, and when the door opened, it was obscured from the wall of the other wall.
The overall style of the basement is like a garage, with walls, floors, and even steel columns standing in the middle simply brushed with cement.
But next to the two pillars facing us, there were two piles of things covered with black cloth, and I was thinking about going over when a loud "bang" came instantly. (To be continued.) )
