Chapter XXVIII

After this conversation, there was a strange silence between Tan Jian and Jiang Xi. At this moment, Tan Jian was actually standing on my left, and the two of us were very close, and at this moment, I could almost clearly hear Tan Jian's sudden and heavier breathing.

He stared at Jiang Xi quietly, and only said one sentence: "You know? ”

Jiang Xi said: "Not only I know, but other people also know. While speaking, Jiang Xi glanced at me, and then said to Tan Jian: "So, do you have any other doubts now?" ”

Tan Jian pursed his lips into a straight line, said no, and then bent down to carry Zhou Xuanye on his back, and motioned for me to carry Tang Linlin on his back.

The conversation between the two is completely confusing.

Jiang Xi: What are they taboo about? Obviously, Tan Jian knows this thing.

After carrying Tang Linlin and the others, Jiang Xi and Tan Jian no longer had other conversations, not even making eye contact. But Tan Jian and I have been getting along for more than half a year, and although his expression is no different from that of normal days, I can clearly feel a low pressure, indicating that this girl is in a very bad mood.

I actually knew all about this thing, but I was the only one who didn't know, and it was obviously deliberately concealed by Tan Jian, I knew that I couldn't ask anything, and maybe I would be deducted from my salary, so I suppressed the idea of asking.

At the same time, Jiang Xi walked in front and began to show us the way, and as he walked, he said: "This 'dream vine' of the pothos barrier is poisonous, and the poisoned person will feel tired and weak at first, and then feel sleepy, and finally fall into a coma nightmare and cannot extricate himself, and he needs a special antidote to wake up." ”

I said, "What's the antidote?" ”

Jiang Xi said coldly: "What you just ate is what you just eat." ”

I said, "Isn't that the worm repellent?" ”

Jiang Xi stopped and took a deep breath, as if he was very tired: "Many medicines, all of them have more than one effect, and they will wake up every once in a while." Do you have any other questions to ask all at once, ok? "It's still weird to look at a man in a black robe with long hair in a costume and suddenly popping up an English word for you.

So I was silent.

Jiang Xi continued to walk forward, leading the way, and said: "The characteristics of these Dream Vines are similar to sunflowers, they will move on their own, we have mastered this method, so we set up a mechanism, once an outsider breaks in, the mechanism operates, and the Dream Vine will follow the mechanism to change its direction." ”

Tan Jian said: "This is the reason why the entrance and exit disappeared?" ”

Jiang Xi nodded and said: "However, it is actually very easy to get out, there are four entrances and exits, the east is the road back to Yumen, the west is the exit, and the entrances and exits on the north and south sides are traps, which are the third line of defense of the pothos barrier." Even if someone breaks the pothos barrier and foraminifera, they will be misled into the tunnels full of mechanisms. ”

I immediately understood: "Then we are going west now." ”

"No, let's go south."

As soon as these words came out, Tan Jian and I were stunned for a moment, why did we go south?

Without waiting for me to ask, Jiang Xi explained: "They caught up very quickly, although they are taboo against you, but if they are in a hurry, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not be killed, so we will hide in the south first." ”

I understood what he meant, since the people of Yumen knew that we were partnering with Jiang Xi, they would inevitably think that we would take the right path under Jiang Xi's leadership, and they would never expect us to go the other way. Moreover, the mechanism in there, only after it is triggered, will it arouse the vigilance of everyone in Yumen, as long as we don't trigger the mechanism, no one will think that we are hiding inside. This can buy us a time difference.

As we spoke, we arrived at the bottom of the cliff, and with the illumination of the lights, the cliff was densely covered with green vegetation. Jiang Xi gestured at me and Tan Jian and said, "Open these dream vines and look for them, there is a sentence of activity switch." ”

The two of us immediately put down Zhou Xuanye and Tang Linlin, and began to pull these damn vines to look for them, and it didn't take long for me to find them, that thing was in a relatively low position, not careful, and it was really easy to be ignored in the past, about the position of my knees, a slightly raised piece, and there was a password disk on it.

Jiang Xi obviously knew the password combination, but he stretched out his hand and turned it twice, and there was a slight friction sound in the darkness, like the sound of some mechanism running, at first on the right, and then to the left.

Finally, the voice stopped on the right, and Jiang Xi immediately walked to the right and said, "Keep up." "We didn't say a word, and chased after the people behind our backs.

I saw that only ten meters away from us, the nightmare vine on the mountain wall suddenly disappeared, revealing a dark entrance. This entrance is similar to the tunnel I drilled before, and at first glance it looks very neatly polished, and you can see some deeply carved patterns of various birds on both sides of the entrance.

Jiang Xi was the first to dodge in, Tan Jian and I followed, and I don't know where Jiang Xi pressed, as soon as we entered, the dream vine at the entrance was densely entangled, blocking the outside tightly, and at the same time, a stone gate rose up, completely sealing the entrance.

There was a dead silence all around, and the only source of light was the flashlights in the hands of the three of us.

Jiang Xi leaned his back against the wall, sat on the ground, and said, "Wait, don't make too much noise." "In order to save power, I proposed to turn off the flashlight and just happen to have a wall lamp on the stone wall, so I simply lit it.

When Jiang Xi heard this, he raised his head and said, "There are organs everywhere here, you can order it if you are not afraid of death." ”

"Uh." I choked and said, "Can you light a lamp and have a mechanism?" "My cognition of the mechanism in my heart only stays in the martial arts TV series, turning a vase to open the secret room, what a dark crossbow, what a cave-in, what poisonous smoke, but I haven't seen a TV series, lighting a lamp will trigger the mechanism.

Jiang Xi's voice was still a little hoarse, and I found that the black robe on his body actually didn't fit well, and it looked like he had stolen it from someone after escaping. After I finished speaking, he opened his mouth as if to reply, but then in the silent tunnel, he remembered a grunt.

The source of the sound is Jiang Xi's stomach.

Jiang Xi swallowed the words he wanted to say, touched his stomach, and said, "After I escaped, I only cared about looking for something, and I didn't come to steal some food." "Looking for something? I looked at a bulging brocade bag tied around his waist, and I don't know what it was.

Curious, I asked, "You just escaped like this, and you don't plan to go back to Yumen in the future?" ”

Jiang Xi was silent, closed his eyes, and said that he didn't want to answer.

I thought about it, and immediately pulled out the food and drink from Tan Jian's equipment bag, tore open a packet of dried radish, and put it under Jiang Xi's nose, but in a second, this girl swallowed her saliva, opened her eyes, snatched the dried radish, and picked up the compressed biscuit that was opened on the side and ate it.

Although his face was still the same as if we owed him money, he still answered my question while eating: "No return, fate is over, I have my own things to do." After a pause, he added, "The lamp oil on this wall is poisonous, and if you light it, you will suffer." ”

While speaking, Tang Linlin, who was lying on the ground, suddenly let out a voice and woke up slowly.

I hurried forward and helped the person up: "Linlin, how is it?" ”

"Why are you here every day, am I dreaming? Right...... I remember, I've been dreaming that we are traveling to the Maldives and then you drown in the sea and I am going to save you...... I didn't save it, but you turned into a water ghost, and you kept dragging my feet and pulling me into the water, damn, scared to death. ”

"...... can't you dream of me if you dream together?"

Jiang Xi looked at Zhou Xuanye and said; "He should be waking up soon, too." Tang Linlin suddenly saw a stranger, and then she reacted and said in surprise: "Who is he?" Where are we? When she woke up, she was still a little weak, and her voice was not as high-spirited as usual.

I took the water on the side and fed her some water, and explained the current situation by the way, she looked at Jiang Xi while listening, and finally said: "Postdoctoral fellow of Fudan University, I worship it, Jiang Xi, are you married?" I tell you, if a man marries too late, the deformity rate of having children in the future will triple! If you haven't gotten married yet, you're going to see me? ”

Tan Jian on the side had a blue face and said to me, "Plug her mouth." ”

"What block?"

Tan Jian gave me his spearman.
