Chapter 15: Prison Break
Sitting still is certainly not the solution to the problem, and I used fire to drive away the rats that were in a hurry to eat people, while I asked the others to find a way quickly.
Yan Qiu was already so frightened that she couldn't speak, and Su Rina didn't have anything to do.
The fat brother said, "It seems that we can only wait for the door to open and let the water scare these rats away." ”
Jiang Li suddenly patted me on the back and said, "Get out of the way, I'll try if my whistle works." ”
yes, how did I forget about it? A rat is not a black dragon, and whistleblowing must work.
Jiang Li took out the whistle, still concentrated on playing, the beautiful music came out immediately, listening to the small song, it made people feel refreshed, and the dark dungeon instantly gave people a cool and comfortable feeling.
Even Yan Qiu, who was terribly scared, relaxed a lot, as if she was no longer afraid.
I also feel that the fatigue in my body has disappeared a lot, my body is much lighter, and I am more agile in holding a torch to drive away the rats.
Halfway through Jiang Li's song, she suddenly stopped, pointed to a mouse and said, "Look, it doesn't work, these mice are still like that." It can't be the evil of these rats, right? ”
Yan Qiu complained to me anxiously: "Why is it useless for you to learn that technique?" I don't use it at critical moments. ”
I think that since Jiang Li's whistle is useless, then my Demon Blade is definitely useless, I really don't want to take out this knife again, this is simply a knife of bad luck, every time it is this knife that leads us astray. But fate hangs by a thread, and if you can try, you still have to try.
I handed the torch to the fat brother, pulled out the scimitar from the holster at my waist, and looked at the faintly flickering blue light, and the scriptures that immediately came to my heart, and at the same time prayed, hoping that it would work.
A minute later, the blue light of the blade illuminated a five-meter radius.
I held out my scimitar to the rats, and the fat guy withdrew the torch slightly back.
Jiang Li shouted excitedly: "It's useful, it's useful." ”
I saw that my knife was much more effective than the torches, and the rats simply pushed them into the darkness far away, as if they were very frightened, and their mouths were closed, and they lay there staring at the knife in my hand.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Yan Qiu said, "It's useful, and your technique is not useless." ”
I snorted coldly and said, "Don't be too happy, this knife won't last a few minutes, and if it doesn't open the door for a while, I'll have no choice." ”
Hearing me say that, everyone immediately became nervous again.
Su Rina urged: "Let's hurry up and find a way, it's definitely not a matter of consuming it like this, if the door can't be opened for a while, we still can't escape death." Otherwise, let's exterminate the rats, a few can be trampled to death, it is better than waiting to die like this. ”
The fat brother said: "Don't come up with such an unreliable idea, I don't know what's going on inside, I suspect that the space inside is full of rats, and you may not be able to kill them with the rat spirit, and if you provoke them, Zhanxiao's knife won't work." ”
I was sweating in the palm of my hand holding the knife for a while, but my body was covered with goosebumps, and I didn't know if it was hot or cold now, but I felt dizzy in my brain, I didn't know if it was the lack of oxygen here, or if I was too nervous, in short, I couldn't hold on for long, I'm afraid I would have to pass out before the light of this scimitar disappeared.
I urged the fat brother to say, "Don't patronize and deny others, you can think of a good way." ”
The fat brother said helplessly: "I can't help it, I haven't escaped from prison, if the prison escape master comes, I guess I can find a way out." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the fat brother seemed to remember something, frowned, and made a thinking motion.
When I saw the fat brother's expression, I hurriedly asked, "Do you have eyebrows?" What comes to mind? Let's talk about it. ”
The fat brother said: "Pull it down, my mouth has not been bright recently, what do I say, nothing can be done." When we go home and find a spiritual temple, I will open my mouth. ”
"When is it, you still talk about the wind and cold? If you think of something, say it, and say it, and everyone will analyze and analyze it. Su Rina persuaded the fat brother.
The fat brother thought about it again and said, "If it doesn't work, but it's a sheep in the tiger's mouth, it still doesn't work." ”
I made a gesture to take the knife back, and scared the fat brother and said, "Then forget it, anyway, I will wait for death, and I will not be burdened to hold it, and I will die early and be reincarnated." ”
The fat brother hurriedly pressed my arm and said, "Don't, you hold on a little longer, you have to wait for me to understand." ”
I ignored the fat brother and continued to pump my arm back, and the rats immediately emerged from the darkness with a hideous expression.
The fat brother hurriedly said: "Don't, listen to me, when we looked at the cell before, did you find any details?" ”
Su Rina urged: "Don't sell Guanzi, say it quickly." ”
The fat brother continued: "When we look at those cages, there is one that has nothing in it, which is the first cage we see. ”
Everyone nodded.
The fat brother said again: "We were in there just now, I was idle, I looked at all the cells, this should be a cell for one person, each of them has bones in it, but the one we looked at didn't." ”
Surina said, "What do I think you said? Didn't I already tell you that? It is not possible for all cells to be filled with prisoners, and there are empty ones for spare. ”
The fat brother shook his head and said, "No, if it's empty, why lock it?" And you don't have to worry about the prisoner running out. ”
I asked the fat brother, "What do you mean?" Why do I get more confused the more I talk about it? If there is a person locked inside, is it possible that the person's bones are rich in calcium, and the rats have gnawed them clean? ”
The fat brother stomped his feet and said, "Oh, why don't you understand? Prison escape, that prisoner is probably escaping. There was originally a person locked up in it, but there were no bones left because he didn't die in it, and this person was eighty percent of the people who escaped from prison. ”
I still don't quite understand what the fat brother means, we still don't know what kind of criminals were locked up in this prison before, and we don't know if there was a prison escape, even if someone escaped from prison, it was an ancient, and now I don't know where to run, and it is impossible to run out to help us escape.
Does he want me to use the Heavenly Eye to communicate with the soul? After being dead for so many years, and if the prison escape is really successful, and the soul is not here, how can you communicate?
Seeing that we were silent, the fat brother was thinking about what he said, so he continued to explain: "The door is locked, and the prisoner inside has escaped from prison, what does this mean?" It means that the prisoner escaped from the cell, and he must have made a way out of the cell, and we must have gone into the cell to look for it, and maybe we could find the exit. ”
Now I understand what the fat brother means is that in the cell where there are no bones, there are escape methods left by escaped prisoners.
I pondered it carefully, but I still thought it was unlikely, the floor here was not brick or earth, it was iron-plated, and if a person made a hole in the iron-plated ground, it would at least be with a welding torch, and it would take gas welding to make a passage in such a thick iron plate. What's more, there must not have been such a tool in ancient times, and even if there were, would it have brought the prisoner to the cell with great fanfare? And the cell was empty, and we didn't see any tools.
If we listen to the fat brother and try to get into the cell, but there is no exit inside, then we will never be able to get out again, my knife will definitely not last that long, and the torch cannot guarantee that the rat is really afraid.
I said to the crowd, "Vote, everyone, if we go in, we may be surrounded by rats, and as soon as my sword is extinguished, the rats will attack immediately." ”
Yan Qiu first expressed her opinion: "Let's stay here and wait, your knife won't last longer, dying at the door and dying inside is actually the same." But waiting here, there is only one result, if we go in and look for it, maybe there is still a glimmer of life, I hope the fat brother's judgment this time is not wrong. ”
Yan Qiu's words immediately convinced everyone, and none of us continued to speak, I lifted my breath and walked in with my scimitar in my hand.
Like the hedgehogs I met in the crater, when the rats saw me coming, they immediately dodged in both directions, and then reluctantly surrounded me.
Everyone was scared, so they tried to get as close to me as possible, gathered in a pile, and slowly moved forward.
After carefully distinguishing for a long time, we found the cage that was not locked up.
I picked up my knife and cut off the lock in one fell swoop.
The fat brother didn't forget to pick up the lock and put it in the inner pocket of his jacket, and the heart of the money fan couldn't be changed when he died.
When we entered the cell, we saw that not only on the floor, but also on the walls and the iron sheet on the roof, were engraved with patterned characters.
Su Rina translated: "Let the blood of the mountain god cleanse the sinful soul." ”
We weren't here to travel, so we didn't have time to figure out what that meant to be the bottom, so we started looking for an exit as soon as we entered the house.
I guarded the door with a scimitar to keep the rats out.
Those rats were really crazy, and they actually got a few into the cracks between the iron sheets of the cage wall, and one of them pounced directly on Jiang Li, and was knocked out in mid-air by the fat brother with a torch.
The cell was very small, and within two minutes, the fat brother shouted eagerly: "There is, there is." ”
