CHAPTER IX
Section I
There was not just darkness in this small space, and the old yellow light bulb hanging overhead, the faint light barely illuminated the place. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info originally three people seemed crowded, and the fourth person crowded in, and the light that could shine on everyone's face became less and less, and on the contrary, there were more and more parts that sank into the shadows.
"Kenie?" Cassiu's eyes widened, staring at Kenie's face.
"Why are you here?" Lei Luo was startled by the sudden emergence of Keni from the water, and he could now understand the sudden appearance of Ark when he saw Jade Lu just now.
Seeing that the three of them had this look of surprise on their faces, Keini asked, "Aren't you happy?"
"It's not...... I mean, how did you come here?" Relo felt a little puzzled, he found that Keeni had the plastic bag of cotton clothes they had placed on the shore next to him, and Keeni was supposed to float, and Keeni was able to bring it down.
Keini noticed that Relo was staring at the bag he had just thrown on the ground, so he smiled, pulled the cotton coat out of it, and strained a few small iron balls out of his pocket.
"Don't mind if you let me wear your clothes for a while, it's really not easy to swim down, I haven't played so exciting in years. Keeni shook the water from his hair and changed into Relo's cotton clothes.
"It's exciting. Ake smiled coldly and said.
"Isn't it? Keeni looked up, looked at the light bulb, and said, "It's been all these years, and the power generation system hasn't broken yet." ”
"You say there's a power generation system here?" said Lei Luo snapped to his senses.
"Little Lei, it's not appropriate to talk about this now," Keni smiled, cleared his throat, and turned his face to Ake, "I'm here to help you get this broken door open." ”
"How did you know we were here?" said Ark, who didn't answer her.
"Are you stupid or not, I said I could help you open this door, you still can't guess. Keeni curled the corners of his mouth, smiled evilly, glanced at Cassiu, raised his eyebrows, gently pushed away Lei Luo, who was standing in front of the door, and walked to the door, not seeing where she touched the door, and the door was pushed open by her effortlessly.
Keeni glanced back at them, then ran to the door, and said as he ran, "I'm done helping, so I'll take my leave." ”
"Hey, wait a minute!" Lei Luo ran over, holding on to the door frame, not daring to chase after him, but poked his head out to look, and it looked like a staircase-like structure inside, and he didn't know where Keni had gone.
"Forget it, since the doors are open, leave her alone. "Ake leaned his back against the stone wall, and had no intention of chasing.
Lei Luo turned his head, looked at Ark, and asked, "What did she mean by what she just said?"
"You know her better than I do, okay? You don't know this question, how do I know?" Ark smiled bitterly, walked over, and poked his head to look inside.
"I guess she's just a bad official. Kaxiu looked at Lei Luo and Ake, pointed to the words on the door, and said: "Only three Yan Mo Guan and above can open this door, I am three, Fan Pu is two, since she can open this door, except for Yi Yan Mo Guan, there is no one." ”
"Then why didn't she react at all when she saw the three of us...... I mean, Cassius is the last official, and Ake is a traditional royal family, and she didn't let me meet with Cassius before. I'm okay, the point is on the two of you, how can you say that it's a hostile relationship on the surface...... I still can't figure it out, like we told her a long time ago. If she's a one-faced official, then why did she help me and Ark last year? Now that we're together, and we still want to get in, why didn't she stop it and help us open this door?" Lei Luo looked at Cassiu, basically knowing his answer, because now he also looked slim.
"How do I know...... If that's what you say, then she's going to send the three of us to death right now. It's all dangerous, she's been here before, and if your brother hadn't saved her, wouldn't she have died? Cassiu replied.
"Impossible, right? Send you to death? Lei Luo's eyes widened, and he couldn't figure it out.
"Did you forget? Or did you tell me, there's another heir. Kahew sat cross-legged on the ground and propped his head back on his hands.
"Yes, too...... Ake, do you still remember, last year when the two of us went to Yehuang to find Qini, I asked you what the last official was, you mentioned that the last official was working against the underground party, so will she know that you went to the last official to steal things before?"
"You say she knows what she knows, she always knows everything. But I stole the map of Qirui, it's basically useless, you see, what are these paintings, it's messy, the only useful thing is the following one, I only know that I can go under the sea. Ake's tone began to be impatient, perhaps because he had no clue, and he didn't look like a quiet queen now.
After Ake finished speaking, he took out the thin map and shook it in front of Kaxiu's eyes, there were only a few blurry frames and some messy lines on it, and there was no way to see any road at all.
"Then what now, go in or retreat?" Lei Luo was embarrassed to ask anything else, and finally only asked weakly.
"You're helping people to the end, you're here. As he spoke, he yawned, stretched, and softened his tone a little, striding in.
Relo and Cassius glanced at each other and walked in.
The air was damp and smelled of wood and mold, but it was a well-repaired passageway, and it didn't take a short walk to reach the fork in the road.
On the left, the staircase leads upward, in the middle is the straight passage, which is close to the one on the left, except that you can see the end of the flat road, and goes up further, and the one on the far right is the only one and the only way down.
"The classic link, another bunch of roads. Cassius complained faintly, "Oasis Island, Alien Skull, The Hague City, are all designs that go around and around.
"You two, one of you has a lighter and an intercom. Walk separately, to be on the safe side, if there is a fork in the road, go back, if not, walk for a minute and come back. Finally assemble here. Ake said.
"Are you crazy, at this time, go separately, for the sake of safety? When you don't know how to go, it's taboo to act separately, it's easy to get separated. That being said, Lei Luo still took both of these things, and if he got separated, it would be too late.
"I agree with Lei Luo, it's too risky to go separately, and you might run into some mechanism and die. Cassiu also took the thing, leaning slightly towards Lei Luo's side.
"Then you mean to die a mess? As long as one person can get something and get out alive, it will be a bumper harvest, our goal is to succeed, not to escape safely, if I run into some mechanism, you two can help me bring some loot out, then if I really encounter any mechanism, why don't you just go back and swim out from here? My ultimate goal is to restore the country, since you two are here to help me, listen to my command, okay?"
"We're here to help you, so what else can we do to help when we go apart. Cassiu turned his head and saw a flash of light on the left side of the road leading up.
"Hey, shouldn't we go to Kenie? Relo was elbowed by Caxiu, noticing a light flashing over there.
"If you don't have the same opinions, then go your separate ways. Ark looked back and said, "I'll go to the right, and I'll leave you two at will." ”
"Why didn't I find you so stubborn before. Cassius said.
"That's because we used to be a united front. Ake turned to him.
The only sound left in the silence was the sound of Ake walking, and Lei Luo didn't say anything more, he knew that Cassiu was embarrassed at this time. I looked at the remaining two intersections and walked into the road on the left that flashed again.
"Cassiu, remember, you must come back after a minute of walking. Lei Luo left this sentence before leaving.
"Well, separate is separated. Cathius glanced at the passage in the middle, kicked a small rock into it, and when there was no movement, he strode in.
Lei Luo was wondering what the light was that shone like those fragments, and when he entered the passage, he realized that the light was reflected from some broken glass above, and they were reflected little by little through the small broken crystals in the wall.
"Ahh
Slowing down, he looked at it, this was a straight passage up, Lei Luo walked for a while, and soon came to the second fork in the road.
One side up, the other down, on the right hand side is a glass wall with a special material that looks exactly like the wall. But it had been shattered, or Relo wouldn't have been able to find it. Inside, there is a vertical downward-facing passageway, and the walls are filled with handrails, which seem to be able to climb down or up.
"Leiluo?" Cassiu's voice came, and in this underground space, the voice kept echoing, and it was impossible to tell where it came from.
"Cassiu, where are you, are you going back?" Relo shouted to the way he had come, his own voice echoing.
"No, my path is straight, it's coming to the end! there's only one patio left, are you facing it from above?"
"Yes, then come up, little one, don't run into any mechanism! Lei Luo shouted into the hallway.
It wasn't long before Cassius climbed up from under the passage, his face covered in dust, the passage had not been cleaned in years.
"There's only one way up in the middle, nothing else?" asked Relo, helping Kasiu dust off his back.
"No, I walked for a short time to this place, I was going to go back, but I heard your voice. As he spoke, Caxiu picked up a slightly larger piece of broken glass, looked at it, and said, "I guess this was originally a secret door, and someone must have broken it." ”
"Don't talk nonsense, go back, it's been a minute, and Ark should be heading back. Relo said, starting to walk back in the direction he was heading back.
"How did you two get out of one? Did you two just go in one?" Ark asked, poking his head in, curious.
"No, I'll go to the left, Cassiu to the middle. But the middle road leads up to the end, and Kahew climbs up and we bump into each other, what about you?
"On the way, I found a door in the wall, but it was sealed and could not be opened. I walked a little further, up a flight of stairs, and two more forks in the road. I didn't dare to delay the time, and I came back as planned after finding out. After Ake finished speaking, he immediately asked, "Did you find anything?"
"I'm like you, I go up a flight of stairs to the fork in the road, and there is a patio, and the road in the middle of Kahew leads to the bottom of the patio, and you can climb on it, which means that there are three roads on my side. Lei Luo said.
"That's all, what's next?" Cassius asked.
"Hmm...... What do you think, Lei Luo?" Ark was a little confused, and threw the topic to Lei Luo.
"I suggest going my way, and when we get to the fork in the road, you and Cassius will go up, and I'll go down. You can also walk upwards and climb the patio to have a look. "Lei Luo had already thought of a plan.
"Yo, I didn't expect it, I've been in business for a year and learned to be smart?" said Ake with a smile.
"No, I just thought about it when you didn't come. Lei Luo smiled and said, "Then let's do it." As soon as he said that, he walked into the same path he had taken at the beginning.
"I still don't climb the patio, this flash is wrong, I'll accompany her up to have a look, you be careful alone. In the blink of an eye, Cassiu looked at the back of Lei Luo walking down at the second intersection and began to get more and more nervous.
"If you go down, there will be a lot of gas piled up underground, and the lighter is ready to be tested at any time, of course, my knowledge in this area is not good, some gas may be burned, or don't use a lighter to check. In short, as soon as something is wrong, hurry back here. It's still the old rule, walk for a minute and come back. Ake explained.
"I'm all holding walkie-talkies, I'm not afraid, I'll come to you if you have any questions. Relo replied.
"If you encounter any monsters, you won't use them. Cassiu said with a grin.
"Hey, Cassiu, look at this. Cassius and Relo chatted for a while, and at some point Ark had already run up and called out from above.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Cassius shivered as he stood next to Ack, getting colder the closer he walked, and not only that, but he was shocked by what he saw.
The two of them came to a huge underground space, where only three tall ancient towers were built together, this ancient tower was dozens of times the size of an ordinary house, and the faint light from above illuminated the place, which was also the starting point when this light folded to the entrance. This space is not an irregular shape, the whole is a huge hexagonal body buried in the ground, and the ancient tower and the two people who came in are in this hexagon, the empty and vast scene, it seems that this ancient tower is mysterious.
"How could they possibly make such a ......" Ark opened his mouth and looked up, just in time to see a small movable door on the top opposite.
"There's a beast called a mudworm, and if you're as tall as your thigh, they eat everything, so they don't have to worry about them at all, they feed themselves...... They can even eat the soil and then drain it outside, and the last officials go to Yehuang to find tens of thousands of such beasts, and then repair the edges a little, and it can be completed in a few days. Cassius looked at it, and although he knew what was going on, he was still shocked by the row.
"How do you know?" Ark suddenly felt that Cassius had grown a lot more than he had imagined.
"I'm a three-faced official, and I'm in charge of beasts, and I've often written to Keini about these things this year. I need to know better......" Cassius said, and he realized that Keeni knew this because she was a one-faced official.
"But this kind of building, it's just flashy here, let's go, go in and have a look. Ake looked around, there was a separate iron staircase built into the wall on the opposite wall, it seemed that this place was not the only space, there would be underground space underneath. Even more certain, the door on the iron staircase is the entrance to the next place.
"Lei Luo hasn't come yet, I'll call him. Kaxiu said as he prepared to go back.
"Lei Luo is fine, he will come up in a while. Let's go check it out, he might find something in the next place below. Ake said.
What is it?" Cassius was a little confused by this.
"Do you see the iron staircase over there? There's a door up there, there's definitely a ghost, what else is it for? And the movable door on the ceiling that I just noticed, the buried entrance I mentioned earlier, maybe this movable door is the buried one. Now the priority is to go in and find something, and I bet this place has what I want. Ake looked at the three ancient towers, which were dilapidated but still charming, and thus had a ghostly taste.
Ake and Kasiu walked to the door, thinking it was firmly locked, but only after Kaxiu gently pushed it, the door was unexpectedly light, and he stumbled in.
"Hey, are you alright?" Ark hurriedly stepped in, there was a high threshold there, and it tripped Kaxiu.
"It's okay, scratch a little skin. Cathew touched his temple, furry.
"Be careful. Just now I wanted to say that if there is any dangerous beast or something inside, I am going to escape, but fortunately, it is ...... inside" Ark looked at the things around him, except for some dust, there was only a box of paper left. Looking up again, the gate directly corresponds to an open back door, and the three towers form an almost triangular courtyard, and the back door of this building and the gates of the other two towers are also opposite to each other.
"What are these things?" Cassius looked at the paper in the box, which was full of unintelligible code.
"Looks like this place used to be the office of the last official. Ake also picked up a few pieces of paper, looked at them, and put them back. "Let's go, there's nothing to see. ”
"What's the hurry, forget it. You go first, I'll take a look. Cassius frowned and glanced at Ake, she was in too much of a hurry.
"Eh......" Lei Luo had just gone down to the end, and it was the way up again. He had already walked through three forks in the road, all of which had chosen to go straight, and finally found a door. Opened with joy, and his eyes widened at the sight in front of him.
"Empty?" he opened the door, only to see a wall, a false door.
"No, there's definitely a problem...... "Lei Luo hit the wall alone, suddenly a little scared, he looked back, and there was nothing. Then he said to himself: "It is impossible to build a dead end, and it is possible to ......" He stubbornly touched the wall, which was unexpectedly smoother than the others.
"Cut. Lei Luo felt a little funny, but unconsciously nervous, he found the secret passage sealed by glass. He kicked hard at the wall, and sure enough, the glass shattered, revealing a structure that looked like a patio behind it.
"Ak, Ak, I found a secret passage, Ark?" Lei Luo took the intercom, no matter how he shouted, no one answered. "It's going to be fine. He shuddered, turned his head and ran back.
Section II
"Ake, I'm looking for something good. Cassius said, holding a large piece of paper and running to Aker.
"Look, here's the map here. But it's incomplete, it only draws the way in which the movable door leads, and you're right, it's really the buried intersection you said. But we didn't draw the one we came here on, not even the fork in the road. ”
"You wait. As if waking up from a dream, Ake unloaded his bag and pulled out the map in the document. "I add up this one, and you can't finish it. ”
As she expected, the two maps were stacked on top of each other, revealing the top half of the stump. "I'll just say how this map is so thin!"
"Great, we're in this Silver Crack Ancient Building...... The forks in the road we came to are also there, and there is indeed a bigger ...... under this hexagonal space That Relo should be in the ...... right now," Cassiu groped his way along the route in the direction of Relo just now. "Will he go back to the starting point?" said Cashew, following the downward bend of the second fork in the road, and then went around to the starting point.
"No, I guess in his mind, he'll go straight and get here, but it's a dead end, and he'll be back at the end. Ake said.
"No, there's a patio behind that door, there must be glass that can break and get in, in fact, you can also get in here from above, a structure that's very similar to the one I walked with Lei Luo at the beginning. Cassius said, pointing down the patio, "Then he'll be ......."
"Ake?" Relo's voice came from behind, and they turned their heads to see Relo running towards him.
"Are you all right...... Scared the hell out of me, what's wrong with the walkie-talkie?" asked Relo. "I just discovered the secret passage, and I told you on the walkie-talkie, but I didn't get back to me. ”
"It's all right. Ake checked his intercom in confusion, and there was no problem, so he took Lei Luo's intercom, sneered, snorted a few times, shook the side to Lei Luo, and stuffed it back into Lei Luo's arms.
"You forgot to turn on the switch. ”
Lei Luo blushed and shook his head, "Eh, me...... I'm sorry. Anyway, I've just found the secret passage. ”
"We already know it, let's talk about the secret passage later, and get to the bottom of this place first. Ake said, holding the two maps and shaking them again in front of Lei Luo.
"Oh. Lei Luo hung his head and began to walk around.
"Exactly, three floors, one person checks one, Kasei, you just look at this building, Lei Luo, you go to see the tallest building, I'll look at the one in the back. Ake pointed and divided the tasks.
The building that Lei Luo entered was ordinary, not even as good as Cassiu's, at least it was all documents, and it was empty, and he could only go up from floor to floor, and he saw empty houses one after another.
The painful thing is that this house is unusually large, the diameter of the first floor is several kilometers away, although there is nothing to check on each floor, fortunately there is a simple elevator device on this floor, and it has become a very painful physical work to stop on the first floor.
He stood on the top floor and looked at the scene in front of him through the window, there were no flowers and trees, no blue sky and white clouds, all rocks, nothing useful.
"Hey, Cassiu! there's nothing here! It's white up!" Relo poked his head out and shouted at Cassiu in the building.
Cassiu also poked his head out of the bottom of the building and replied, "I won't let you go up this building, it's sealed, and the first floor is all over, so it's useless." Do you see any way to come upstairs from my building?"
"Let me see...... I remember didn't Ark have a rope with him, and I asked her to borrow it, and you have an iron hook upstairs that you can hold the rope to swing through here. Lei Luo turned his head to look at the building that Ark had entered, and shouted, "Ark, what floor have you been to?"
The unusually quiet sound was broken by a sudden scream, and Ark ran out in embarrassment, slammed the door slammed shut, and almost crawled to the bottom of Casheu's building. Her voice sounded so hideous that Lei Luo almost didn't recognize it.
"What's wrong?" Cassiu, who had been downstairs, quickly reached Ack's side and helped her up.
"The last official was a brute, and he actually raised this kind of thing in it. Ake gasped, his hands shaking.
"What's going on?" Lei Luo limped over, probably running downstairs and falling.
"Those plants that were cultivated in the Battle of the Crown Spirit are the same ghosts you saw in the void last year, and they are even more terrifying than those. They've kept these things in there, oh my god......" Ark clutched his heart, gasping for air.
"The only valuable thing here, it seems, is only this half of the map, let's go. Kashui pulled Ake up, let her hold her arm, and walked out, her legs weakened.
"No, you haven't seen it upstairs. Lei Luo looked at them and said.
"Ray Lo. Kasiu turned his head and glared, "Checked, nothing." ”
"Hmm. Relo understood what Cassiu meant, and now he had to take care of Ack's feelings, in addition to the possibility of closing something more disgusting upstairs.
"Now go to the secret passage that Lei Luo found or take the iron fence to the next location?" The three of them sat on the threshold for a while, and Cassius asked softly when he saw that Ake was almost recovered from the shock.
Ake no longer held Kaxiu's arm, but stood up, shook his arm, and said, "Let's go separately, I'll go to the next place, Lei Luo Road is already familiar, he will take the secret road." You go and see the upstairs, don't go to the building I just entered, at least check it thoroughly where you can. This time, remember to turn the intercom on, and contact the situation later. ”
"I'll accompany Cassiu to check this place first, and then let's go together, depending on the situation, this place is also dangerous. Also, the rope is borrowed for me. Lei Luo patted Ake's shoulder, reached for Ake's bag, and pulled out the rope.
"When you're done, don't look for me, I'll go to the next place. The two of you walk along the secret passage, and there should be a passage in the middle of the map, and you two can go directly to the third location, yes, it is this square space that is oblique like a diamond, and you can meet at the third location when the time comes. ”
Ake smiled, patted Lei Luo on the shoulder, and went their separate ways.
"Relo, I just remembered, we don't need ropes......" Not long after Ark left, Cassius had an idea. "You can ask Yulu to bring us both up.
"Why didn't you think about it sooner, I wouldn't have to climb this building. Relo remembered that when he had just climbed the stairs to reach the top, he poked his head out and smiled bitterly at Cassiu.
Cassiu and Lei Luo rode the jade deer, and in order not to stay in the air for too long, they flew directly into the top floor of this building.
"It's still a pile of broken paper. Lei Luo glanced downstairs, and the room was still full of waste paper.
"Then don't look for it, let's go, go directly to the secret passage. Cassius called for Relo and flew downstairs to prepare for the secret passage.
"Why did Ark have to go separately today?" Relo turned his head to look at Cassius who was following him, and continued walking.
"I'm also curious, she wants to 'end the fight' quickly, and she thinks it's too slow to find it together. Kasiu scratched his head, not understanding.
"Let's not talk about it, that's it. Lei Luo led Cassiu around and around and finally found this place, and they looked at the bottomless passage, the smell of black holes and fear became more and more intense in the air, quickly condensing.
"Lanny?" Fan Pu patted him for a long time, but finally didn't wake up.
"Cunning and cunning. Fan Pu squeezed Lanny's hand tightly, he knew that Kenie must have poisoned him.
Fan Pu no longer did useless work, but tried to carry him on his back, but his lower body was already immersed in the quagmire by the lake, and he couldn't pull it out.
Remembering that a year ago, Lenny knocked on his door at night, and if he hadn't mustered up the courage to knock on it, he wouldn't be where he is today.
"Boss, what's the matter?" Fan Pu hurriedly hid his cane in the sheet.
Lenny actually saw this action, and Fan Pu also knew that this kind of directly exposed defense made the atmosphere very awkward.
"Well, I'm here with you...... I wanted to say something. Lanny was nervous, looking at the arm that Fan Pu had been trying to hide behind his back.
"What are you talking about?" Fan Pu asked vigilantly, and the atmosphere became even more awkward.
"I mean...... Would you like something to drink?" Lenny spoke staccato like a stammer.
"Boss, if you have something to say, it's okay. Fan Pu smiled politely, put back the hand that had been behind his back, and put it on his lap with the royal scepter.
"You're not trying to ...... Conquer the Dominion? I ...... I hope you can help me with something. Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't want to ask. Lenny listened to Fan Pu say this, and relaxed a little.
"Tell me about it. Fan Pu looked at Lenny, guessing what the hell he was up to.
"You are a two-faced official, and you are very powerful...... Oh yes, my cousin...... Call...... Li Cheng ...... You may know him, he ...... "Lenny is stammering again."
"I know, what's wrong. Fan Pu began to feel weak, he only left Li Cheng at the bottom of the sea yesterday, maybe the fish on the bottom of the sea were already biting his body.
"I haven't been in touch with him for a long time, but yesterday, I learned that he died, supposedly by drowning himself in an experiment. Zuolu doesn't have a president now, so ......" Lenny is stuck again.
"So you want to be president?" Fan Pu sneered, the people in his organization haven't gone up yet, what kind of role can you count.
"No, no, no, I mean, after you take control of the Tumeng, you must have the ability to control the Left Continent, and I hope to install a ...... in the government of the Left Land My brother once told me how to control the bottom of the Missile...... In this way, not only will you become the overlord of this sea, but I will also be able to make a fortune on this way. I'm kind of refuge in you, with a ...... like me Patron, yes, patron, you can walk a little easier this way, right?"
"Trick your heart. Fan Pu secretly scolded in his heart, and then said to him, "Okay, boss, then I'll come to you when I'm done." ”
"Eh, my lord, you may not know much about my circle, their news spreads quickly, I can't pick you up and stay in my store and look like I'm not afraid of anything, I have to pretend to be afraid of you, and then scared away to make sense of my life." Lenny looked happy and stopped stammering.
"That's right......" Fan Pu thought for a while and asked, "Then where can I find you?"
"I know a great old friend, she lives in Yehuang in Ruan Shan, I go to live in Lan Hai in Ruan Shan, and she can still take care of me. When the time comes, wouldn't it be better to choose Ye Huang, where there are not many people?" Lanny smiled happily, and he couldn't tell that it was a routine at all.
"Yes, I don't care where we meet. Fan Pu thought about it, and was a little excited to be able to control Mi Xiyang.
"Well, you will definitely be on the news in a year, and when I see your news, I will go to Yehuang to wait for you. Lenny said.
"So, your friend who takes care of you is Keini, boss?" Fan Pu looked at Lenny's corpse, a little frustrated.
The big bird called out and signaled that Fan Pu should go.
Fan Pu originally wanted to say a few words about this atmosphere, so he looked at Lanny and suddenly found something.
Fan Pu touched Lenny's body, "What is this?"
"I think it's a labyrinth......" Cassius replied.
They climbed down the secret passage, and sure enough, as on the map, they found the passage, and followed the passage, and came to this labyrinth, which was still all kinds of turning around, except that from time to time they could see piles of dead human bones.
"I think so, too...... It could also be a trap, otherwise the corners would be skeletons!" Lei Luo shuddered, he kept touching the walls, and they were all rough. Relo and Cassieu had been circling inside for a long time. "Why didn't you say anything? Could it be that some glass is blocking the way?"
"Possibly...... But I didn't see anything like glass, it was so rough to the touch. Cassius kicked at the wall, but there was no sign of any splinter.
"Hey, come here!" Cassiu suddenly shouted, his tone was a little wrong.
"What's wrong?" The two had already distanced themselves somewhat, and for a while they couldn't find each other in this maze, so Lei Luo had to stay where he was.
"There's a mechanism here! I must have touched something just now, I didn't have a mark on this wall just now!"
"Cassiu, are you on the other side?" Raylo knocked on the wall behind him, and he couldn't remember when there was more of this wall without a sound.
"It should be ......," Cassius chuckled inwardly. "In that case...... You're trapped inside......"
"What?" Lei Luo's scalp suddenly went numb when he heard that he was trapped inside, and he turned his head to look behind him, only the small light in the corner of the maze was on, and he couldn't see anything in the next corner at all.
Lei Luo was so frightened that his legs went limp, and he sat on the ground with his back against the wall, very desperate.
"What now, I'm going to die here, too?"
"I don't know...... I'll look for clues, don't move. Cassieu was also frightened.
"Don't, don't go," Relo craned his neck, staring warily around the corner, his voice trembling to Cassius across the wall, "you make me think...... Could it be at the entrance? They might hide the door on the ground, you just walked in front and didn't see it, and I tripped over it when I came in, so I didn't care, maybe it was some kind of mechanism. ”
"Really, I'll go and see, you stay here and don't move. Although Cassius was a little suspicious, he followed the mark and returned to the original point, looking for the mechanism that Lei Luo had said.
"Cassiu?" Relo shouted, and Cassiu had already returned to the point of origin to look for clues, leaving him alone, listening to his own voice echoing back and forth inside, and it became very terrifying.
"Found it!Relo! Did you hear that?" Cassius finally got his wish and touched the small ring, and lifted it vigorously, and sure enough, as he had guessed, it was a movable door. When I opened the door, I saw a long 45-degree slope descending in front of me.
Cassiu walked down for a while, and then it was a ramp up again, and he felt a little hairy in his heart, after all, walking in the dark for so long would always have some thoughts of scaring himself. In order not to pay attention to his fear, he turned on the walkie-talkie, connected to Lei Luo's intercom, and asked, "Hey, can you hear me?"
"Yes, how's it going? Did you find the mechanism?"
"I found it, but I didn't expect that there was a secret passage built on the edge of this quadrilateral space. I remember when I was a kid and I was a fan of it!" Cassiu was too busy talking to notice that it was time to walk uphill, and his head was knocked off the top of the passage unsuspectingly.
"What's wrong! what's going on?" Lei Luo on the other end of the walkie-talkie was frightened by this sound.
"Hmm...... It's okay...... I just left the jade deer on it and waited for you, I have already walked one side of the quadrilateral space, according to this direction I should be able to reach the opposite corner of the entrance, you also see four times, there are any mechanisms. Kaxiu Sutra was inexplicably annoyed.
"I've been wandering around the labyrinth! I don't think this place can be as simple as a dead labyrinth, a pile of dead bones, you think, I just found some fake stone doors at the end of several roads, although it is only in the shape of a door, but I think there must be something. Lei Luo kicked hard at the wall in front of him, but he didn't move.
"Can you catch up to Ack's intercom?" Cassius asked.
"No, it can't be connected, it's so far away from so many walls. After Lei Luo confirmed that the switch on the walkie-talkie was turned on several times, he reluctantly said this to Cassiu.
Finally, Cahew made it uphill and climbed to the end, but it was a dead end, and it was a fully enclosed space at the end.
"I seem to have crawled for nothing!" Cassius said to Relo, whirling around the cul-de-sac.
"Let's go back. Don't run into some mechanism in a while, lock you up and forget it!" Lei Luo was about to collapse, and his voice was not quiet.
"No, I found the damn glass. Kathew touched the wall behind him and kicked it hard.
Section III
"You're worth dying. Fan Pu took the box out of Lenny's pocket and pulled out the letter.
Fan Pu, maybe by the time you get this letter, I will be dead, or I will not be far from death. Of course I'd love to have read it to you instead of you digging it out of my corpse's pocket.
You came to my shop a year ago and found me, and I thought you were the same silly boy who went to the ice barrier and was homeless. That's right, I've seen you back then, you and your friends are hiding in my carport and chatting, and I heard you, and if I hadn't heard your chat, I wouldn't have realized that there was a fight between the left side and the ice base, and I wouldn't have come to DOM to run my branch in DOM for safety, you and your dad saved my life, and I'm about to give it back to you. I didn't expect you to find me with the identity of the last official, we are really destined, aren't we?
Our fate is not only that, when you were young, I was a soldier with your father, you know, your father is six years younger than me! 18 years after the outbreak of the Battle of Guanling, that is, the year that is about to end, on December 5, 42, your father enlisted in the army, and I was his leader, and I was sent to lead your father and a bunch of recruits. He was really lucky, your mother happened to have your brother that year, and the war ended in less than a year! Yes, the war ended just a week after your brother was born! I clearly remember that the day it ended was September 2, 43, of course, it didn't help telling you this, maybe your father told you about it.
On the day the war ended, your mother wore the same military uniform that your father gave him when he joined the army, which was the most beautiful one, and the girl wore it with a special heroic look. She sat on a chair in the center park on the left and waited for your dad to come back and pick her up, and I threw off my armor and sat across from her. I'm wearing my war clothes, tattered, and I'm waiting for your dad to come back. She wouldn't know me, and I knew her. The cherry blossoms were already gone, but the maple leaves were red, and they planted the two plants together so that they could have something to enjoy at every time of the day, and that was the first time I saw your mother.
Our fate is not only that, when you were eight years old, oh no, it would have been 26 years before you were eight years old, and it was April 4, 53, and I would have liked my diary, otherwise I would have forgotten these little details. That day that dad took you to visit me at the ice base, and I asked your father, why didn't your brother come? He said, your brother ran away from home, so he took you, his youngest son, to visit me, and said that if he had three longs and two shorts, he would entrust you to me. Sure enough, a month later, he was killed on a mission, and I was involved in new trouble. The year 53 was really unusual, when Ake of the Ice Barrier Royalty escaped and later brought a stolen document, for which his father supposedly kept her in the Ridi dungeon for a long time. Your brother joined the royal family of Jokai at the end of that year, and I have never seen a 10-year-old child join the royal family of Jokai and form his own fleet, but your brother is an exception.
I made a big mistake at that time, and I hope you can forgive me, my younger brother, Li Cheng, is in the same situation as you, but at that time your father did not die, his father died, in the war between Zuolu and Ice Barrier, at that time he was left with only my relative, and you two were in Zuolu, and I could only choose one of the two. Because your mother was the last officer, and his father was martyred in the war with the last officer who occupied the ice barrier as a commander. I'll admit that I had too many concerns, but it turned out that I was right, and you killed him anyway.
If I hadn't chosen my cousin instead of thinking that my arm couldn't be turned out, I would have chosen you, maybe there wouldn't have been all these strife.
One of your two friends, one is called Kassiu, right? He became a three-faced official, and you two are double-linked, and your brother must already know. You're going to have to watch out for that friend of yours, I read the newspaper and he's wearing your brother's team's proprietary tracker. If you still want to know something, go to Keini, she told me that she was going to a place called Styx Island to the east of Shouchu recently, and you can go there and wait for her.
You know what? I see that you have become the last official, I really have no hope of living, maybe you will kill me, I think the best way is to find a way to help you, to make up for my mistakes.
In the small island where you killed my cousin, it is the place where you control the Missile, and there is another, in Chenghai, and now under the control of your brother, I have gossip, maybe your brother has allied with the underground party, I hope you can take care.
After you read this letter, if you want, can you grant me one last request?
Please give me a place where there are no people and get some good sleep.
September 13, Rainiliu 64
"You just wrote it in the morning, and if you wrote it in front of Kenie, you'd be stupid enough. Fan Pu endured it, he couldn't hold back his crying, he didn't know all this, he forgot the past, if this was originally a secret, but he only had this secret left, almost nothing.
He stood in the mud, his feet sinking down a lot, the clouds were rolling in the sky, Lenny was still soaking in the waters of the Missic, and the dead leaves were falling down one after another by the rain, leaving a few small yellowed leaves on the trees.
"So Cassius is from my brother's faction, too. Fan Pu dug for a long time before digging out the lower half of Lenny's body that had fallen into the mud and sand, his body was as cold as the sea, and Fan Pu could still imagine the tone of his speech, but now he couldn't remember it at all.
Fan Pu carried the dead Lanny on his back, and it didn't take long to carry him, so he directly buried him in the nearby forest, Yehuang itself was sparsely populated, which suited his appetite. He looked at the sky, the dark clouds were rolling, the rain in the mourning clouds was getting heavier and heavier, and the big bird could not withstand the wind and rain for a long time, so he had to stay no longer, patted the bird on the back, rode up, and flew away.
Keeni watched Fan Pu, who was getting smaller and smaller, and walked to the mound where Lanny's body was buried. Her blonde hair was soaked, sticking to her face, and the muddy water was also stained on the hem of her pale yellow skirt, she didn't care about it, she squatted down, patted the little mound of dirt like she used to pat Lenny on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect him to accompany you for so long, I ran to Mingzhou and ran back." It's kind of affectionate and righteous, isn't it?"
Keeni walked to the river and picked up the pocket watch that Lanny had dropped in the mud, and it was 8 o'clock in the morning.
"Lei Luo, why do we have to stay up late as soon as we meet!" Cassiu yawned, looking around for the fake stone door that Lei Luo had said. He had just kicked through the camouflage glass in the cul-de-sac and went straight into the second half of the maze.
"Let's talk about it when we meet. The intercom heard Ray Luo's highly nervous howl again, and he was nervous all night. "Cassiu?"
Suddenly there was a sound of something hitting the intercom in Cassiu's walkie-talkie, and he might have dropped it.
"Don't scare me, can you?"
No matter how Ralo called, Cassius just didn't speak.
Suddenly, the fake stone door in front of him was kicked by Cassiu, he pulled himself up and ran, ran to the stone wall, he stabbed the iron rod in his hand at some point into a small hole in the wall that he had not found for a long time, and the wall was brushed up, and he looked back to see that a bunch of black bugs the size of half of his body were crawling towards him.
"Look at it, run!" Cassius and Relo rode onto the jade deer waiting for Relo at the entrance, and began to fly towards the Luff they had come from.
"What kind of trap have you hit again!" Lei Luo gasped, they had already returned to the courtyard of the secret passage, watching the worms in the passage fall down the patio one by one.
"I just found the fake stone door you said, it's not fake, it just has to be pushed from my side, the person who designed this is really vicious, there is no sense of team or only one person is here to really look for death. Cassius said, gasping for breath as well. This thrilling scene happened just two minutes ago, and neither of them has recovered yet.
"What are those bugs? How did you get this steel rod in your hand?" Relo angrily threw a tantrum at Cassiu, frightened.
Yulu didn't give face, and shook his buttocks, which startled Lei Luo again, as if he was signaling that his master was not allowed to bully him.
"You go back and take care of your ......" Lei Luo didn't dare to speak, so he had to touch the big horn of the jade deer.
"When I came here just now, I found this one in front of the stone gate, it was stuck between the two walls, so I removed it, and saw that the top of it looked a bit like some machine parts, and then I blindfolded it, and it was right, and it was really the key to open the stone wall. But as soon as I removed it, I opened a window above my head, and the worms kept dropping down, and I was so frightened that I lost the intercom, and it should still be in that place. Cassius looked at the mudworms that were still falling, and began to vomit again, but he had vomited so much that he had nothing in his stomach next to the ruins of the ship's hull in the Missians, so he had to grunt from time to time.
"What is a mudworm?" Relo didn't know what a mudworm was.
"I just ...... Oh, I'll explain it to Ake, I'll tell you again, it's a beast called a mudworm, the biggest is half of yours, they eat everything, so they can live by eating dirt underneath, and of course, eating people. ...... They eat the soil, and then go outside to drain it, and the last officials go to Yehuang to find tens of thousands of such beasts, and it is effortless to build an underground space, of course, the terrain must be selected well, otherwise it may collapse. Cassius looked at it, and the bugs were gone.
"Isn't that a dead deal?" Lei Luo pronounced the word "that" very heavily. "Didn't you say you're in charge of these beasts or something? ”
"It's true that I'm a three-faced official, but it's a management of beasts, isn't it good to control? But it's not necessarily that they will die when they touch them, they are afraid of fire, as long as you have fire, you can scare them off, but if you only have a lighter like now, don't think about it, let's run." Of course, this is nonsense, what living things are not afraid of fire. Cassius let the jade deer descend slightly, and he saw that some of the insects that were still scared of death were running back.
"Na Ak...... No, Ark will come directly to the third location after passing through the second location!This is here, find her quickly!" Lei Luo remembered that Ark must have arrived at the second location, and could come to the third location at any time.
"Right...... Then I'll see if Jade Deer can kill these bugs...... You hurry up and find Ake, if I can, I'll go directly to the place where this maze connects to the second location, and then walk from there to the second location, so that we can intercept Ake, otherwise we may not be able to touch her, and I lost it after adding my intercom, and if the pair of bugs didn't eat it, there was still hope of finding it back. Kaxiu said as she made Jade Lu turn around so that Lei Luo could grab the handrail and climb up.
"Okay, if you can't do it, just follow my path, and I'll go as straight as I can when I get to the second spot, or you won't find me. Lei Luo began to get anxious again, and pulled the handrail and climbed up.
"Okay, be careful. Cassiu took one last look at Relo and returned to the passage.
"These guys are really rich, ...... in this kind of place" After the three of them were separated, Ark came here along the iron staircase on the hexagonal space wall of the Silver Crack Ancient Building.
She stood on the overpass, this is a small city at her feet, full of voice-activated lights, she just kicked the door to prevent danger, the sound of kicking the door continued to echo from top to bottom, the lights in the city were lit up, there were so many buildings in the center of the left road, and they lit up from the darkness together, instantly illuminating the underground space, Ake was also squinted by this sudden light, and walked down an iron staircase on the overpass, without directly entering the door opposite the overpass, the door leading to the Trinity Labyrinth.
When Ark walked into the street opposite the iron staircase, there was no one in the street, but when he shouted casually, a light was shining, and after walking for a while, he didn't have the strength to shout again, so he stomped his foot to wake up the light.
"Ark, are you there?" Relo kicked open the door on the overpass, also waking up the city lights, shocked by the splendor of the place. He found it seemed to be a habit to kick in the door when he came here.
"Why did you get up? Cassiu?" Ark looked up at Relo, who was almost the size of his own fingernail.
He ...... I'm going to come up right away! I was going to block you
What kind of place is this? Where is the electricity!" Lei Luo saw this city, and no matter how he thought about it, he didn't look like he was in backward Narushu.
"The map says that this is Silver Crack City, and the last officials gathered millions of supporters to bring it here in an attempt to establish a simulated city in order to live in Mingzhou and occupy the land resources of Mingzhou...... I'm not moving, you come down and talk about it first!" Ake shouted at Lei Luo for a while, only to find that Lei Luo was staying motionless on it.
"Oh oh! I'll come down now!" Lei Luo was a little dumbfounded, and then he reacted and ran down the iron railing.
"You just said that you would bring a few million people here to Sim City and then?" Relo trotted all the way down, looking out of breath.
They succeeded, but after the war ended, the last official was frustrated, and the place was discovered and destroyed by the Northern and Southern armies. Those millions of people don't know where to go. Ake said.
"They should be dead...... The first maze was eaten by the mudworms, and there were a lot of human bones...... "Lei Luo thought about the scene of millions of people being eaten by the mudworms, and it was thrilling just thinking about it.
"You went?" Ark's eyes widened and he asked, "How do you know it was eaten by a mudworm?"
"Then why are we blocking you? If you follow the passage here to that labyrinth, won't the game be over?" Lei Luo sat on the iron staircase, looking at Ark.
"Where's Cassiu?, was it eaten?" Ark's eyes widened.
"Don't crow's mouth, he's a good guy! He runs much faster than me at the critical moment. Lei Luo laughed, rolled his eyes, and said, "Just kidding, he said that he knew that this insect was afraid of fire, and then he still had the jade deer, so he planned to go to the passage of Silver Crack City and the labyrinth to block you in case you were eaten." Let's just wait for him here, and find out if there is anything you want. ”
"Doesn't the walkie-talkie work? and it doesn't turn on?" said Ake, smiling crookedly.
"One is that it's too far away to be used, but Cassiu's walkie-talkie has been eaten by bugs, what can I do?" retorted.
"So you two have been arguing here for so long?"
