The moment he stepped through the stone gate into the darkness, Wu Xie felt a slight sense of weightlessness, and he wanted to turn around to remind everyone to be careful, but he was surprised by the scene behind him and couldn't make a sound.

The people behind him seemed to emerge one after another from another time and space, and behind them was a chaotic void, where was the stone gate that passed through when they came?

The fat man patted Wu Xie's face: "What did you see so terrifying?" You can stuff an ostrich egg in your mouth. ”

Wu Xie said: "The door just now is gone!" ”

Everyone was also taken aback when they heard this, and they all turned around to check.

The light of the flashlight shone past, and I saw a whole stone wall of dark red rock blocking behind me, and the entrance disappeared silently!

"It's not scientific!" The fat man groped up and down on the stone wall, and said, "Blind man, were you like this when you came?" ”

The dark glasses shrugged and said helplessly, "I didn't encounter this situation last time." ”

The fat man turned his head and glared at Wu Xie fiercely, and said with resentment in his eyes: "Innocent-"

Wu Xie wanted to reply: Aren't you also present with a fat man every time you encounter an evil man? How can I think that it is me Wu Xie who is recruiting evil alone?

But after thinking about it, he shook his head and began to look at the space around him with a flashlight.

The soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth. There is no way out, it is better to find another way out.

Ahead is still a corridor made of dark red rock, in the form of a regular quadrilateral, extending horizontally forward.

Surprisingly, the stone walls of the corridor are also carved with dense and complex lines. However, unlike the mural content in the stone chamber in front, the content of the picture here is very abstract. After watching it for a long time, you will have the feeling of being sucked in unconsciously.

"This stone wall is weird, try not to stare at the mural!" Wu Xie Dao.

The group retracted their gaze, which was firmly absorbed by the mural, and cheered up and continued to move forward.

The unfathomable darkness ahead, as if it could absorb light. The LED flashlight can only shine at a distance of about ten meters. Further on is the thick chaos.

The light hit the stone walls that were dark red as blood all around, and everyone felt as if they were in the body of a huge monster, passing through the cavity and intestines of the giant beast, and if they were not careful, they would fall into the cold stomach of the giant beast.

At the end of the road, it splits into two identical forks.

The dark glasses paused slightly, and took the lead into the fork in the road on the right.

Wu Xie followed, and caught a glimpse of a string of familiar English letters on the corner of the stone wall by the light.

That's a mark peculiar to stuffy oil bottles.

Seeing this mark, Wu Xie felt a lot more comforted, and he looked at the fat man.

The fat man obviously saw it too, and the two of them exchanged glances knowingly.

After advancing more than 100 meters, branches appeared again on the road. The mark left by the stuffy oil bottle was still found. So all the way down, except for the lingering coldness and darkness, there was no other danger.

When the fifth branch appeared, the dark glasses suddenly stopped, and stood at the intersection thoughtfully.

"What's wrong?" Wu Xie asked.

Could it be that the marking of the stuffy oil bottle has been interrupted?

Wu Xie searched the corridors on both sides and found the mark on the edge of the passage on the left.

He looked at the dark glasses with an inquiring eye, "Is there something wrong?" ”

Dark glasses touched his chin and said, "I remember that the dumb man made a mark on the passage on the right. ”

Wu Xie frowned, probed the two identical paths with a flashlight, and asked, "Could it be that you are mistaken?" It all looks the same here. ”

The black glasses were silent for a long time, and then sighed and said, "I hope I remember it wrong." ”

He shook his head and stepped into the corridor on the left.

After traveling more than 100 meters, Wu Xie found that the black glasses stopped again.

In front of him were still exactly the same two branches, and the expression of the dark glasses was rare and solemn.

He said: "The sign of mute is gone." ”

Wu Xie was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly searched with a miner's lamp, and sure enough, there were no artificial marks on the stone walls of the two passages.

The fat man caught up and saw that Wu Xie's face was a little ugly.

"Go back!"

The way back has not disappeared.

Soon the crowd came to the last place where there was a fork in the road.

The fat man sighed.

Wu Xie walked up to him to check, and the fat man said, "It's so strange, the mark left by the little brother is gone, and he was obviously in this position just now!" ”

Everyone is here to discuss what to do next.

Their position is like the center of a "Ya" shape, surrounded by exactly the same three corridors radiating out in three directions. No matter which direction you go, it doesn't make a difference. The intricate lines on the stone wall also seem to be the same, and have no reference value.

Wu Xie decided to let the two of them go in groups and explore in three directions, while the others stayed where they were and waited.

As a result, the people sent out soon after, all returned, and the three passages all forked in more than a hundred meters, and without exception, no marks left by the little brother were found.

An indisputable conclusion is in front of the people: they are lost! Lost in less than half an hour of coming in!

The fat man was anxious: "Is it another ghost hitting the wall?" ”

Wu Xie turned his head to look at the black glasses and said, "Is it a mechanism?" ”

"As I said, this is an unimaginably large underground labyrinth, and where we are now is just the tip of the iceberg."

Black glasses said: "If you don't know the essentials, even if thousands of troops come, you will be trapped inside." ”

"Yes, more than 700 years ago, 120,000 Mongolian cavalry besieged Gaochang City, but after the city was broken, they didn't seem to get what they wanted. So in a fit of rage, he burned the city to the ground. ”

It was a young man surnamed Chen who spoke, and it was quiet along the way. He spoke unhurriedly, and after finishing speaking, he looked at the void in the distance of the tunnel as if no one was around, and his eyes were faint.

At this moment, Wu Xie actually felt that he looked like that person!

Wu Xie lost his mind for a moment, and the young man surnamed Chen seemed to notice his gaze and turned his face to meet Wu Xie's eyes.

Wu Xie didn't have time to hide his gaffe, but the surnamed Chen suddenly blinked and gave him a bright smile.

Damn, I must have thought too much, and the one who can laugh so sunny will definitely not be the bitter and bitter stuffy oil bottle!

"So what's next?" Wu Xie asked.

Black glasses said: "No way. Unless there is a map. ”

The fat man shouted: "Blind man, why didn't you take out the map earlier?" ”

The dark glasses shrugged and said, "It's not that I have it, it's the dumb one." ”

Wu Xie frowned and said, "You mean that the little brother has the route map of the underground labyrinth in his hand?" ”

After taking the stuffy oil bottle out of the bronze door, Wu Xie rummaged through the luggage he was carrying. It can be said that there is nothing else to grow except for a ghost seal, when did the little brother get the maze map?

Black Glasses said: "It's not in his hands, but on his 'body'." ”

Hearing that the black glasses focused on the word "body", Wu Xie was shocked and unconsciously looked at the fat man.

The fat man had the same reaction as him.

Both of them thought of it in unison - unicorn tattoos!

If the unicorn tattoo is related to the underground labyrinth, then there must be a great secret in this Gaochang City!

The next moment, Wu Xie was suddenly pulled into the corner by the fat man, and said in a low voice: "Innocent, to be honest, can you still remember the tattoo on the little brother's body?" ”

"It's not like you haven't seen Fat Wang, it's so complicated, can you remember it?"

The fat man glared and said, "How many times have I only seen it?" It's always a time to play with your life. But weren't you with your little brother every day a while ago? ”

Wu Xie immediately exploded: "Can we see each other every day?" Besides, is that thing there all the time? ”

Wu Xie's voice rose up, causing everyone to look at it curiously.

Wu Xie staggered his face in embarrassment, just in time to meet the dark glasses with a playful smile towards him.

Wu Xie glared at the past in annoyance and shame-

Looking at Wu Xie's murderous eyes, the black glasses were stunned for a moment, and then he faked a cough, dusted off the soil on his clothes, and said, "Actually, this is just my guess." As for whether the mute had a map or not, only he himself knows. ”

"Boss, what are we going to do next?" Lao Sun asked Wu Xie.

"If you come, you will be safe, and if you take one step at a time—" The black glasses replied ruffianly, and disappeared into a corridor without looking back.

Tsk, isn't that my line? Wu Xixin said.

The fat man also said: "That's right! Mr. Lu Xun taught us that there is no road in the world, and when there are more people walking, it becomes a road. I don't believe that with my ingenuity, I can't break the Laoshzi mechanism of the ancients! ”

patted Wu Xie on the shoulder: "Brother, let's go?" ”

Wu Xie shook his head helplessly and followed the team.

But the haze in my heart is getting heavier and heavier, and there is really a crisis in the underground palace of Gaochang City, I hope this time I won't kill everyone!

The dark red corridor winds and turns as if endless, and every fifty meters or so, there are forks.

It is no surprise that the compass has completely lost its usefulness here, but even by feeling, the group discovered an indisputable fact: after walking for more than an hour, they have been going around the maze in circles like guinea pigs in the laboratory.

"If we go on like a fly like this, before we find my brother, we will be consumed into a dry corpse first." The fat man couldn't stand this kind of grievance, and sat under the wall, "Fat man, although I don't have a map, I never have a shortage of explosives at hand, what should I do next, naively, you make a speech!" ”

In fact, along the way, Wu Xie has been waking up his spirit to find out the mechanism of Yongdao, but this maze is actually designed to be leaky, and there is no flaw in the slightest. And the mark left by the little brother never appeared again.

"The geological structure here is fragile, and you can't use explosives unless you have to."

"What do you see?"

Wu Xie groaned, "I suspect that except for the only correct path in this place, the other wrong paths are all connected. Because no matter how huge the underground project is, the space it occupies is boundary, and it cannot really be endless. So what we have to do is to break this endless cycle. ”
