Chapter 16: The Underworld

"We can't run around like this anymore, I feel like the pursuers behind have long been thrown away, it's time to take a break and find the right direction." Zhang Yunsheng stopped and leaned against the wall of the sewer, "You should also talk about your escape plan, right?" ”

Ye Shiyao also rested against the wall: "The plan is very simple. Head east until you reach the end and exit through the drain in the sewer. Then enter the primeval forest and pass through the middle of the forest. When the vast forest covers the sky and the sun, it will be difficult for the strip to find us. ”

"We can't hide in the forest for the rest of our lives, can we?"

Ye Shiyao rested enough, stood up straight and moved a few times: "Do you remember that I told you that I was going to trouble Chao Yunfei?" Now he's dead, but the Blood Spirit is still there. The trouble won't go away on its own, and I'm going to keep looking. But he died, so I had to go to Tang Haisheng. It's also good for you, if you want to clear your name of murder, you have to find evidence on your own. ”

Zhang Yunsheng knew that all the evidence at the moment was not against him, and if he wanted to get his innocence, he had to wait for the Yellow River to dry up, because it could not be bleached at all. But would Tang Haisheng leave a handle so easy for him to catch? And he escaped from prison, which can be regarded as a crime on top of a crime. Will the police believe in themselves?

"Don't you dare to come out and pick up Chao Yunfei alone, do you dare to clean up Tang Haisheng? Don't underestimate him, Chao Yunfei was planted in his hands, and he blamed me to wash himself clean, are you sure you can beat him? ”

Ye Shiyao knew that Zhang Yunsheng's worries were not unreasonable, but he dared to be released from prison at this time, so he naturally had his own preparations.

"I know more than you think. Tang Haisheng's nickname is the Smiling Tiger, and he smiles like a flower when he sees people, but he eats people and does not spit out bones. Do you think he can't beat Chao Yunfei? Not necessarily, I'm afraid The reason why he waited until you arrived wasn't to sneak attack, but just to find a scapegoat. Do you know who the leader of the Blood Spirit Society is? ”

Zhang Yunsheng shook his head: "I'm not a cultivator like you, how can I know so many sect secrets?" ”

"The current leader of the Blood Spirit Society is Yan Cong, and his mana is all over the sky."

"What does this have to do with Chao Yunfei, one surnamed Yan and one surnamed Chao, can't beat the eight poles?"

Ye Shiyao shook his head: "What do you mean you can't fight, Chao Yunfei is his brother-in-law." ”

Zhang Yunsheng's face was full of black lines, and he felt that this Chao Yunfei was a relative, no wonder Tang Haisheng wanted to kill him with his own hand. No matter how powerful Yan Cong is, he will only make trouble for himself, but he is happy and relaxed.

Just when Zhang Yunsheng was about to inquire more about the secrets from Ye Shiyao, Wang Erqing couldn't sit still: "Boss, it's not appropriate to stay here for a long time." ”

Ye Shiyao didn't plan to tell these two followers everything he knew, so he used this excuse to say: "Erqing is right, it's time for us to leave here." ”

Zhang Yunsheng thought to himself that this was whether I said it well or not, but I just couldn't find the right direction. Ye Shiyao took out a bag from his arms, which contained his own package that he had taken from the depository.

I saw Ye Shiyao take out a compass from it, and he handed the compass to Zhang Yunsheng: "Use it to measure the direction, it's too dark for me to see clearly, so I have to bother you to make a move." ”

Zhang Yunsheng couldn't help but ask: "I said that you can prepare a compass, so you can't get a compass?" ”

"The compass is not safe, the compass can not only guide the north, but also see that the feng shui is much stronger than the compass. Don't be sluggish, hurry up and see which is the east. Ye Shiyao urged: "Although the sewers extend in all directions, you can't underestimate the ability of the strips, and it is only a matter of time before you find us." ”

The compass is difficult to say, easy to say, it is very easy, it just depends on the level of the user. If you look at feng shui, Zhang Yunsheng doesn't dare to accept it, but just looking at the north and south can still cope with it.

Zhang Yunsheng stood up, took the compass to calibrate the position, and then the group continued to run in the dark sewers.

As he walked, Zhang Yunsheng felt that the water under his feet gradually increased. He asked Ye Shiyao, "Have you studied the underground pipe network of Lanhe City before?" This sewer can't lead to the Lan River, right? ”

Ye Shiyao said with a smile: "You are still working as a trainee teacher in the school, don't you know that the Lan River flows through the west of Lanhe City?" We are now on the east side, and as long as the direction is good, the exit of the sewer we go out of is the entrance to the forest. ”

Zhang Yunsheng patted his head: "Why did I forget this, it must be that the smell in this sewer is poisonous, and it confuses me." ”

"Come on." Ye Shiyao retorted, "The sewer here is a rain and sewage channel, and we walk through the channel of rainwater, and there are no toxic gases." Don't bother, hurry. ”

No one wants to stay in this sewer for a long time, although it is not a garbage sewage channel, but there is still a lot of biogas formed by dead branches and leaves in it. After staying for a long time, even a cultivator may be suffocated.

The group picked up speed, and the water beneath their feet grew stronger, indicating that they had run from the branch of the underpass to the main road. Thinking that they were about to leave this oppressive and incomparably dark underground world, the three of them couldn't help but speed up their pace.

Gradually, Zhang Yunsheng felt a glimmer of light, although it was not a light that could be seen by the naked eye, it was just a feeling, but Zhang Yunsheng believed in this feeling. He stopped and said to the two people behind him, "I feel that there is light in front of me, I'm afraid it won't take a thousand meters to get out." But have you ever wondered if there would be no police waiting at the door to block us? ”

Ye Shiyao shook his head: "Tiaozi is not an immortal, how could he have thought that you would return to Lichun Town?" If it were ordinary people, they would definitely flee farther and farther away from Lichun Town. And Erqing and I have nothing to do with Lichun Town, how could they have thought that we would go there? ”

Despite saying this, Zhang Yunsheng is still a little worried: "There are exceptions to everything. You think the police think so, but they don't. If I were a policeman, I would have laid an ambush here. Because you said the exit was a primeval forest, it's entirely possible that they thought we would flee into the forest and hide. ”

"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided." Wang Erqing said nonchalantly, "What if there is a strip?" With the boss's ability and my help, I have to kneel for us as many strips as I come. You kid don't let us pull back when the time comes, so long-winded, the old ladies are not as chatty as you. ”

"Am I babbling? Can you come out without me? ”

"Stop arguing." Ye Shiyao stopped the quarrel between the two, "Later, we will go out and kill the gods and Buddhas, and we can only blame them for their bad lives." Don't you know how to chant mantras? It would be nice to read them a few more paragraphs. Walk! ”

This time Ye Shiyao walked in front, he still believed in Zhang Yunsheng's judgment very much, who made him talented and have yin and yang eyes? Since there is only this distance left, there is no need for Zhang Yunsheng to go ahead. After all, Ye Shiyao is now the most powerful in this small gang, how can he always let Zhang Yunsheng, a half-person with ordinary cultivation, walk in front, isn't that his own name?

In fact, Zhang Yunsheng's estimate still has a lot of leeway, because they haven't walked a distance of 500 meters, and the water under their feet has already overflowed their calves.

"Didn't you say the forest was the mouth? Why is the water getting bigger and bigger? ”

Ye Shiyao couldn't talk to Zhang Yunsheng, he was at the forefront, and he would already have to swim. But fortunately, the water is not in a hurry, and he still has the strength to argue again: "It must be raining too much outside." Wouldn't that be better? Such a big rain strip will definitely not squat at the door to block us. ”

Fortunately, all three of them could swim, and after a short swim, an iron fence appeared in front of them.

Now they can already see the sky outside. Looking at the already blurry moon in the sky, and the gray sky outside. Zhang Yunsheng estimated that it should be five o'clock by now, so they had been walking underground for two hours. Although there were no major obstacles along the way, the pursuers were left behind early. But it's not the height of summer, and it's not a good taste to soak in cold water after a night of walking underground.

The good thing about this iron fence is that it is not welded into a whole, but divided into two doors, left and right, and locked into a whole with a large iron lock in the middle. Since there is a lock, there is no need for Zhang Yunsheng to make a move, not to mention that it is not easy to find a ghost in this desolate place.

Although Wang Erqing's behavior is annoying, he is very good at unlocking. He swam to the door, picked up the lock, looked at it twice, spat out a wire from his mouth, and opened the lock with two fluctuations. During the period, he did not delay throwing the rat that swam in front of him outside the fence, and muttered: "Lao Tzu gives you freedom, no thanks." ”
