The two waited quietly for a while, and saw that under the broken wall that Yan Zheng had already put down, there were many black and pressed reptiles, and there was an endless stream.

The reptiles, who had only twisted and twisted crookedly, soon smelled the smell, and twisted towards the half-cooked corpses of chickens and dogs in the courtyard, and in a short time they devoured the corpses cleanly, leaving only a few scattered skeletons, pitifully propped up in their place; With a "squeak", a vole came out of nowhere, as if it wanted to escape, but the army of reptiles like black clouds that crushed the city immediately bullied it, and in an instant, the vole was shattered.

Yu Moji's scalp was numb, but he couldn't let these reptiles that looked particularly dangerous ignore them, so he had to endure the discomfort and observe them carefully. After a while, the reptiles turned around and probed at the location of Yu Moji and Yan Zheng.

Yan Zheng said "heh" and said, "The sense of smell of these things is even more powerful than yours." As he spoke, he pulled up the ink marks and was about to run.

Yu Moji was helpless for a while, his heart was not such a comparison, but this was obviously not the time to gossip with Yan Zheng. She only stopped Yan Zheng and said, "Let's wait." ”

Yan Zheng said, "What, these medicinal powders on our bodies can not only cure miasma, but also deal with these worms that eat flesh and blood?" ”

"It's possible. You see. The ink marks were still staring at the reptiles. She had looked away from herself, when her sight had regained everywhere, but now she could confirm that the reptiles, although eager to try, did not dare to enter. "Don't you think these bugs seem to be intimidated by something?"

"That's good. Stay here and do not move. Yan Zheng said, and jumped out against the army of reptiles. Yu Mojian was shocked, and was about to stop it, but saw that the black and oppressive insect array really retreated a few points.

Only then did Yan Zheng suddenly return to the place where Yu Moji was hiding, and said, "Ling Ai's medicine is really powerful. ”

Yu Moji said in his heart, if Ling Ai himself was here, he would definitely be able to play a greater role. It's just that since Ling Ai is not here, he can't force others. Yu Moji sighed silently, and said, "I thought that the Xuannu Church would send someone to collect the corpse, but I didn't expect it to be insects; I just don't know what will be the ones that will pick up the wreckage. ”

"Wait." Yan Zheng squatted quietly beside her. The night was dark, and the dew had already stained their clothes, and the air was sticky and uncomfortable. A thin layer of sweat gradually formed on Yu Moji's forehead, and the dew and sweat mixed together, slowly slicing from the corner of her forehead to her cheeks.

Neither of them had a good time, but neither of them said anything, just stared at the reptiles and the broken walls, and did not move.

After a long time, the reptiles, who had gnawed away the living creatures around them, and were whirling aimlessly, suddenly received some signal, gathered together, crawled again under the broken wall, and soon disappeared; After another half an hour, the other side of the broken wall slowly rose, and this time it was finally in the shape of a person.

It was a man. I don't know if it's a person from the Xuannu Sect.

The man's body was rickety, and he was not a practitioner at first glance. He carried an empty bag on his back, first loaded the remains of the chickens and dogs into it, and then tiptoed around to inspect it.

Seeing this, Yu Moji immediately put up the bow and crossbow in his hand, and fired three arrows in succession, not intending to give the man the wrong time to find out. The man obviously did not expect that there were still living people nearby, and his body froze, and he did not dodge a single arrow, and in an instant he was frozen on the ground. Yan Zheng followed and ran out, locking the man's throat with a shot, leaving no room for the man to escape.

But the man snorted, and then there was no more sound.

Yu Moji followed behind Yan Zheng and said in a muffled voice, "I originally wanted to bring this person back for questioning, but I deliberately avoided the key point. How did you die? Could it be that he committed suicide by taking poison? ”

Yan Zheng frowned, stepped on the deceased's head, and pried the man's mouth open with the tip of the gun, and saw a scorpion crawl out from between the man's blue teeth. Seeing this, Yu Moji waved his hand and threw a crossbow arrow, and immediately let the scorpion be her soul.

"It's all witchcraft that doesn't go into the flow." Yan Zheng scolded in a low voice, and poked down with a shot, making the man completely dead, before striding to the edge of the raised broken wall to investigate. Yu Moji looked away from the corpse, and only followed Yan Zheng closely. She saw the broken wall and sighed. It turned out that there were hinges under this broken wall, and if Yan Zheng had allowed her to help together and support both ends together, she would definitely be able to discover this mechanism.

Yan Zheng was quite calm at this time, and was not annoyed by the previous negligence, but said, "Go down and take a look." ”

Yu Moji nodded, and said, "Remember the time." Ling Ai said that these medicinal powders only have a maximum of six time effects, and they can't hold up any longer. ”

"So long?" Yan Zheng smiled, and took the lead in jumping into the deep pit under the broken wall, and turned around to catch the remaining ink marks.

Yu Moji didn't appreciate it at all, and only said, "Let it go." As she spoke, she jumped lightly.

Yan Zheng: "......"

Underneath the pit is a dark passage with no end in sight. Yan Zheng looked at it for a while by the light of the top lamp, sighed, and said, "It's really something that can't see the light, and it will make a hole in the ground." ”

Yu Moji didn't answer. It is not only the Xuannu Sect that has seen the light. Even in the so-called most powerful Great Qi Empire, only a small number of people were born to live in the light of sunlight and gas lamps. And after the criminals who have tried all kinds of means to survive on the river, the poor people in the Aige cottage only shelter themselves with an anthill, and only by doing their best can they earn a little warm light and free air.

Yu Mochen shook the bow and crossbow in his hand, and pressed his thoughts to the bottom of his heart. Now that she is an enemy, she can't let herself think about the suffering of the Xuannu Sect and the reason for acting, otherwise she won't be able to do it.

In the dark cabin of the Jiangshan ship in the past, the reason why Yi Xiaocheng treated the girls as pigs, Yu Moji has gradually been able to understand. But even so, the thought that she was going to do the same thing made her feel a cry of sorrow somewhere in her heart.

The light around him suddenly dimmed, and Yu Moji immediately came back to his senses, and found that Yan Zheng had already turned out the top light. But not far ahead, there was a faint fire. Yan Zheng obviously gave up the field of vision illuminated by the overhead light for the time being in order to see the situation there clearly.

When the two of them looked closer, they found that there was a small shrine, and two candles were lit in front of it, reflecting the face of the first idol in the shrine. This god is in the form of a woman, and if it is held in the sun, it may also be called a solemn appearance; However, under the reflection of these two ghost fires, the face of the god also became weird.

Yan Zheng said, "Is this the Xuannu Niangniang?" ”

Yu Mozhen took a closer look at it, compared it with the image of Hemoling in his impression, and then shook his head and said, "I can't say exactly, but I always feel that this picture is different from Xuannu Niangniang, maybe something else." ”

Yan Zheng didn't care, "In the belief system of the Great Qi Empire, there are also different gods who are responsible for different things. It is not impossible for this Xuannu to send a small ghost to manage the hole in the ground. ”

Yu Moji amused him, but suddenly felt that something moved in the afterglow. When she looked closely, she saw that the place where the goddess's two eyes were empty, and only two white eye holes stared at her, which were not terrifying.

"It's bugs." Yan Zheng obviously noticed it as well, "Flew away." ”

The tingling sensation on Yu Moji's scalp hadn't passed, but when he heard Yan Zheng's explanation, he couldn't help but feel a lot more relieved. It is only when you can't understand and control what is going on around you that fear is especially terrible.

"Maybe it was driven away by the powder on our bodies." Yu Moji looked at the empty statue of the goddess in his eyes for a while, but he didn't see anything. "This place is really evil." As she spoke, she turned and moved on.

They walked through the tunnel for a long time, and at each turn they saw a similar shrine. Thinking of the fact that the statues of the gods had turned white everywhere they passed, Yu Moji couldn't help but feel a little funny, and the tension in his heart dissipated.

Along the way, nothing else happened except for a few bugs. Yu Moji thought to himself, perhaps the person who went to collect the wreckage was too confident and didn't bring a helper; And she and Yan Zheng both have medicine powder by their side, even if there is any ambush in this tunnel, it may not be able to work for them.

Since the road was safe, both of them sped up under their feet. The tunnel started to go underneath and after a few turns it began to go up. The two of them trekked all the way, and after walking for about four pairs, the stone walls on both sides kept turning off, but the directions seemed to intersect, and they unanimously decided to ignore these forks and continue to move forward. At the same time, the further you go, the steeper the tunnel becomes, and at the end of the road is a nearly vertical shaft. However, this place is different from the natural stone path that Yu Moji walked in the mountains before, and there are artificially dug footholds at both ends of the shaft, and even if there are no skills like Yu Moji and Yan Zheng, it is relatively easy to climb up.

However, they were worried that there was some deception or some special stepping order, so in order to prevent further incidents, they gave up those footholds, and both climbed up the bare two walls.

Further up, there is a stone slab. Yu Moji knew that this must be an exit. She remembered the miasma that had escaped from the broken wall of the house before, so she didn't reach out to push it, but looked up and looked around carefully. Behind her, Yan Zheng suddenly raised his hand and pointed to one place, saying, "Look." ”

Yu Moji turned back and saw that there was something like a beehive. It's just that the nest is not completely attached to the shaft wall, but is implicated in some uncomplicated mechanism. As soon as Yu Moji's mind turned, he had already understood the principle; Before she could speak, however, a buzzing insect flew out of it, and soon disappeared.

At the same time, the mechanism attached to the nest spun on its own, and the stone slab above their heads moved. The moon had already risen, and a ray of light shone faintly on Yu Moji's face.
